Forecast for Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 August 2016

Saturday 27 August 2016

~Spiritual Protection~

Moon in Cancer   **

The autumnal-ness of these days is wonderful, late August through October. One of my favorite seasons. I feel like a migrant bird ready to fly to another realm. Yet it would be hard to leave the fruitful fullness of the fields and gardens, and the slow coloring of the leaves. Then there is the return of students to school or college, and football fight songs emanating from stadiums, and apple cider. Magical. 

The horoscopic charts for recent days, and today (Saturday), remind me how necessary it is for each of us to find our own spiritual resources rather then depend on circumstances or the planets to make our way for us. There seems not very much help from the planets recently. Yet I have been keeping my equanimity, for the most part, except for one or two infuriating incidents and infuriating individuals. I try to "put all that in spiritual healing" and focus instead on what I hope my life is really about.

Saturday is a mixed bag. I will point out the hardest part first, during a particular time period: Noon to 7 p.m. Pacific Time; 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern Time; and 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.(Su) Universal Time. Those in other zones can adjust that. These seven hours present some challenges while Luna is quincunx both Mars and Saturn. Whatever infuriates you could come into your consciousness. Individuals who are hard or harsh about certain matters could seem ready to explode, or their covert or overt opinions or prejudices seem to influence them against you. I want to say, "Don't let this ruin your day." Local travel could be difficult, time-consuming or irritating. There are questions about nativism versus internationalism, perhaps. The political noise about such things has been peculiarly unenlightening and stilted. You may wonder why a friend has chosen to be in a particular place where you cannot be. 

Let's go to the symbols for something more uplifting:  Charubel gives one of my favorites:  "A naked infant, exposed, sleeping alone in an open and dreary place. Around and above that helpless form are beasts and birds of prey. But, by some strange power, unseen, this embodied picture of innocence is protected. Denotes a simple unassuming person; one who has been but little noticed; no special favourite of anyone. His parents were cruel, and cruelty has dogged him. Yet, withal, he has some strange power about him, and whilst exposed to the plottings of enemies, he is saved from the power of their malice, and in every contest he comes off, eventually, the victor. 'No weapon formed against him shall prosper.'" That is a wonderful antidote to the previous paragraph.

There is the fruitfulness of late summer and early autumn, already mentioned. This is deeply satisfying. 

One needs to be sure one is on the "right side" in any contest of ideas or opinions, and then one feels confident. This may require some adjustment.

Relatively expensive pleasures may come to you, or you to them. While they last there is 
cheerfulness. 

And, beyond that, there is a prophetic soul within you which sings hope out to you and the world. It is perched atop a tree, and several symbols mention trees--some of our best friends in the vegetal world. Making friends with them could be soul-satisfying.

~Adherence to Purpose Brings Fulfillment~

Moon in Cancer   ***

This looks better than Saturday, hence the three stars, because Luna spends the day sailing toward a trine with Jupiter, Venus and Mercury (albeit also a square with Uranus which makes things spicier). 

The other major configurations provide a dour and negative view, including a T square (very long-lasting) with its focus on Saturn and Mars the two "malefic" planets. I have said previously that this will diminish especially by September 10. I gave a period from September 10 through October 6 as a possibly good vacation period or time for special pleasures and fulfillments. That's just two weeks away. Meanwhile that T square is increasing, with the sun's pressure on one side. It really means "Knuckle down to your major concerns, your work, a project, a study or something which engages you at a deep level. What do you feel is your mission or purpose? Now is the time to adhere to it." 

I have to say that, even though it's a weekend and we want to have some fun. The first paragraph gives some assurance, yet there are uncertainties, and that may make you feel somewhat lost. Yet there is protection if you tune in to it. There are hints of success, and generosity. 

A hard part could be looking at something in your past which requires you to sense the agony you have been through over something or someone. Are you afraid to let that be public? Yet it cannot entirely be hid. Then there is a clearance and a rectification. 

"A woodland scene and a tower upon a hill" (Seignior Borelli) suggests something lovely brought to us by Luna in her own sign Cancer trine to Virgo (earth) planets. Our planet (with her satellite) is a marvel.
