Today is the first of a three-day equinox. The Sun does not reach Libra till late Wednesday in EDT, when there is a nearly simultaneous Full Moon (early Thursday), but today, the Sun makes an opposition to two planets that are in a rare conjunction — Jupiter and Uranus. Len has been doing an admirable job of explaining the exact astronomy; I’m here to convey some of the energy, so this doesn’t take you by surprise. When you see Uranus in any planetary alignment, that’s the element to prepare for, or better, make good use of.<\/p>\n

\"Transits<\/a>
Transits of Sept. 21, 2010<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On one side of the zodiac we have this rare energy burst coming from Pisces. It’s late Pisces, indeed, the next-to-last degree of the entire 360; the end of the last sign. On the other side we have the Sun in Virgo, which by the way is not necessarily that receptive to the energy, but sends this message that it ‘needs’ to be shaken up and woken up. Before its too late. Passively; help me pay attention! Check in with yourself and see if that’s not the position you’re taking.<\/p>\n

In between is the Earth, in maximum tension mode. You know, dangling like a pea in the midst of the Sun on the one side (lots of solar energy) and Jupiter and Uranus on the other (lots and lots of planetary energy). There is something here of the feeling of an unresolvable polarity; of needing to stretch across a contradiction; of having two concepts of who you are. Remember — Saturn in early Libra is still opposite Jupiter and Uranus. It’s not exactly opposite, but it’s close enough to be adding tension.<\/p>\n

What then happens is that the Sun reaches the first degree of Libra, which is technically the moment of the equinox, the Moon sweeps into the alignment and opposes the Sun. That is the Aries Full Moon. This event has an “out of nowhere” feeling. It could shake up the news; it’s a big day (news wise) in any event: some of the most important provisions of the health care reform act go into effect that day. The Republicans come out with their new, improved plan to lead the nation (yay!).<\/p>\n

Virginia plans to execute its first female prisoner since 1912. The Bible down there must leave out the “thou shalt not kill” part.<\/p>\n

But there’s more than this in the wings. I cannot tell you what, exactly; but I know it’s there. Today, the thing to remember is — keep your focus, take it as easy as you can, and focus on modest goals while keeping your mind on your real goal. Keep that sense of perspective, of the great challenges and the small ones; your immediate desires and your highest dreams.<\/p>\n

It’s not a matter of one or the other right now — its about seeing your life in context, and in perspective.<\/p>\n

Please let me know what develops these days.<\/p>\n

Yours & truly,<\/p>\n
