Moon in Taurus-->Gemini
|Karmically diffiuclt or sobering third| of this week continues all day
/moon is void-of-course * / |
until it enters Gemini at 4:29p PT | 7:29p ET | 11:29p UT ** |
1. Jupiter and Mars in a square shows much energy which can be intense, but could go in peculiar or wrong directions. This can be warfare between religions, as in the abominable killings of Ethiopian Christians by the IS in Libya. I just saw the report about this a few minutes ago and it sickens me. I need to pray for my Christian brothers and sisters in Islamic regions. They are often martyrs in a way American Christians can hardly imagine. It can also be strife in politics, as in the growing opposition to Hillary Clinton among those who sense that she is in a stranglehold by the corporate interests who fund her. Or pick the particular controversy which agitates yourself.
2. Mercury and Jupiter in a square, exact today. It can be disagreement; it can be confused thinking; it can be strife between the intellect (Mercury) and the soul or spirit (Jupiter). I heard a sermon Sunday about the power of the Holy Spirit. I felt afterward like saying, when the congregation had a chance to speak, that our intellects often interfere with or obstruct the guidance of the Spirit, and we need to reconcile the two somehow. The pastor himself contrasted "strategy" with listening to the guidance of the Spirit, which is supra-rational. I did not realize while listening and responding in my mind that Mercury was square Jupiter at that very time. This can be, at best, the successful struggle to rejoin or make friendly the Spirit and the intellect. It is not usually easy, although the Christian hope is that it can become so if our faith is intense. Both the pastor and I were responding to this square of those two planets, unconsciously. Astrology can make us conscious of these amazing correlations which are always going on in the Supermind of the Creator.
3. Pluto and Uranus in a square, which has gone on for month after month and shall continue, although having passed its theoretical peak. This again has correlation with the abominable impatience of the ISIS terrorists. Uranus in Aries the sign of the head, and Mars now in Taurus the sign of the neck and throat, vividly symbolize the beheadings of the Ethipian Christians. This was not fated or planned by G*d, but was a horrid misuse of an energy intended for the self-evolution of humanity rather than for attacks on those who disagree. The best we can do after the fact of such abominations is to learn how to prevent ourselves from being likewise angry or destructive or violent even in thought or feeling, so far as we can. I have no easy prescription for that, but if you are on a spiritual path you will be finding your way to it. Knowing about these aspects which test us can help, which is part of the mission of astrology.
4. Neptune and Venus in a square. This can be love which is held back, frustrated, and therefore spiritualized. The loved one is absent not through quarrel but through temporary fate or perhaps Divine design. The love is real but seemingly stifled. It can be jealousy, insecurity, impressionability, or erotic aberrations. At best it is platonic love---love on a higher plane.
5. Mars trine Pluto is relief from all of the above, slightly at least. It can be zeal for one's work and a rollicking approach to success.
6. Venus sextile Jupter--the best for last--is the epitome of what is desirable. It can be popularity, pleasurable events, festivities, sincerity, and social graces. Insofar as we get past the obstacles listed above, this could be our reward. (It is why I gave the latter part of the day two stars instead of one.)
During any |challengning third of the week| we need to get ourselves right with G*d, and perhaps especially this time because of the four squares presented above.

P. S. Thanks to astrologer Reinhold Ebertin, wherever he may be, for some but not all of the language used above to delineate the aspects.
