Answer — we have to want to
And that involves sharing some goals, or adopting one another’s goals, and being on our own side first. You cannot team up with someone if you’re not on your own team.
I liked how your teamwork tied into the Full Moon’s Sabian. at 26+ Scorp. – in my Sadge terminology, which would be two bovines(Taurus) using the positive Mars energy (vs. fighting or going berserk) to get the Work done, make Progress, staying in step together, preparing the ground for a seeding of ideas, like !Goddess ideas and energy!. Collected effort, ( think of the olden days, or like in Vermont, where they still use cows to plow the fields….) but not for just entertainment, (although the edition was v. entertaining), for perhaps inspiring Others to come together (keep the pun).
OK, I guess I should state what the true Sabian which is: A Military Band Marches Noisily On Through the City Streets. BUT I put it into my Bos Taurus language, because I love cows. I know, only a couple of weeks using my new toy, and I am corrupting it with Everything Bovilicious. ((sigh)).
well, the Mandala itself goes on to say that the “aggressive, tense, domineering West. civ. (obsessed with drama, right? ) is in opposition to the natural spontaneity (creating cow Sabians) and instinctive adjustment to nature (making love)”….which is like music (the Band)…not a military band though, but well, it could be…
oh. KEYWORD: POMP. ha! I could say many funny things here, but I’m keeping the steed’s mouth shut on that one..not everyone appreciates my astrological funnies…ha! so just forget the Pomp thing now. it messes with my cool Cow Sabian deal. a little. ha! (and forget that oxen teams are castrated bulls) not trying to mess with your virility- just trying to groove on my cool Cow Sabian deal!!!
perhaps I’ve dug a little hole. so, now, going sideways:
I just have to say, if a Fish and Ram can work together so very well,
well, I just have to ask again:
why can’t We All just get along?????
(answer: we Can!!!)
peace.
oh, and I mean, even if you are exasperated with my cow Sabians, you have to find NOURISHMENT with Ceres on the Midheaven at 19+ Pisces!!!!
Really enjoyed and was very much helped in my current situation (reminders about the tension at this time and to use passion for the bedroom and my head/intellect in “the boardroom”) by today’s article. Really appreciated your bringing Vesta and Pallas into the picture for us. That gave me some crucial insight about what is going on and what to do next in the marathon I am running personally.Thanks Gary and Eric for first class delivery always.
Eric and Gary,
Thank you for this wonderful gift that illuminates both the oracular and pragmatic faucets of making astrology accessible and useful. Anybody reading this will be well informed with a perspective of our world and equipped with tools to make the most of the opportunities while avoiding any pitfalls. A humbling and inspiring piece. Thank you both so very much.
Most welcome, Gary. You have a home at Planet Waves, and I’m sure I’m not the only person who agrees.
Re editing, it’s possible to do a lot of editing and still preserve the integrity of the original piece. It’s about seeing what the writer is doing well, then doing more of it.
Onward. Next stop — Bob Dylan.
Eric, that is by far the most satisfying editing experience I’ve ever had. What a pleasure and honor to work with you bro!

Thanks Fe — Gary’s piece was a great base to work with. He wrote the first version, I basically edited it into a Planet Waves article. He is a trustworthy astrologer and can express his ideas.
A nod to Anthony for that lead photo as well. He is the go-to guy on celestial images of Greek antiquities. I would love to be his writer on a Nat Geo project. I would not exactly leave my camera home, but…
Great article, Gary and Eric. You two make a nice tag team!
