Here is a fast update on the astrology. The Moon is in Aries right now, and enters Taurus at 10:33 pm Eastern Time. I just checked Tracy’s list of daily aspects that I use to write this feature (a little late) and noticed that overnight, the Moon occulted Venus. This is a kind of an eclipse, only the Sun is not involved; a planet is. The Moon and Venus are conjunct, but instead of the Moon passing a little above or below Venus, the conjunction is precise and Venus disappears.<\/p>\n

Whatever this ‘means’, the result was an is emphasis. As I mentioned, Venus is slow and powerful in Aries right now, about to station retrograde next week. An occultation by the Moon points to this station; they are rare enough to have happen. While I’m describing Aries activity that just went by, the Moon also made a conjunction to Eris today.<\/p>\n

Mercury is on the way to being conjunct Mars in Aquarius. Mercury conjunct Mars (in any signs) means fast thinking. In Aquarius, it means very, very fast thinking — some would say too fast. The remedy is not necessarily to slow down but to rethink. Think through things requiring your mental and intellectual attention several times. If you come up with the same steps and the same conclusions each time, that is not rethinking; it’s being in a mental rut.<\/p>\n

The Sun is square a centaur called Hylonome. Centaurs are planets of the approximate nature of Chiron. Intensity is one characteristic, and concentrated growth. Hylonome has the keywords self-inflicted<\/em>. I can give you an example of how this works. One of the young women I photograph, earlier in her life, had a habit of cutting herself; this is simply known as cutting. I had her birth data and I asked minor planet specialist Phil Sedgwick what he thought. He said: check Hylonome. And as it turned out she has Hylonome square the Sun. I could then factor Hylonome into what I new about her life story and the loss of an important male father figure to suicide when she was younger.<\/p>\n

We take a lot of aggression out on ourselves, which often turns to resentment. We take out a lot of resentment on ourselves, which turns up as guilt. Sun square Hylonome suggests that today is a good day to notice how we do this, and make some decisions about whether we want to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
