Message for Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 October; and Coming! month of Scorpio

Saturday 21 October 2017

Moon in Scorpio

What stands out in the daily pattern is a challenge to one's competence. One might feel that one has been too lazy or that one has shirked some duties. Even if today is a "Sabbath" for you, some things for which you are responsible should not be overlooked and fobbed off onto someone else. 

"Down" moods could be based on this internal "toughness on oneself," that is, one is internally lecturing oneself to get on with something important rather than neglect it.

I don't like this advice, because I want to have a little entertainment tonight, but sometimes entertainment has a way of being "work" also when it is speaking to one's inner consciousness in a meaningful way.  That does not make it less enjoyable but more so because one's conscience feels assuaged.

Moon in Scorpio-->Sagittarius

/moon goes void-of-course at 4:36a PT | 7:36a ET | 11:36a UT

until it enters Sagittarius at 4:58a PT | 7:58a ET | 11:58a UT (just 22 minutes later)

Sun enters Scorpio at 10:28p PT | 1:28a(M) ET | 5:28a(M) UT

Some of what was said for Saturday applies today, especially in early hours, but Luna now in Sagittarius moves toward a good aspect with Venus.  So there is more relaxation and happier social times, within limits. This has been a month of "wanting to prove ourselves" and that continues so that efforts to do that will make everyone feel better. It is not that one is obeying some external parent figure but that one's own parent within oneself wants to be pleased with one's accomplishments. One may feel happier with all that as the day progresses, and so happier in being with or sharing with people. 

Coming!

This weekend report is late because originally I planned to write a long report on the coming month of Scorpio, beginning late Sunday (time above). But I found that I felt still unprepared to do that, wanting to work out some further details in my method. This will be the first time I have attempted a report on a zodiacal month, that is, a month determined by the sun's presence in one sign of the zodiac (Scorpio, this year from October 22-23 (time above) until November 21 (late evening). So I wanted to be sure of my ground. 

I had already studied, as reported here, nearly a hundred charts for past events by this method, but always there is a lurking question, "Am I missing something?" So this morning (Saturday) I spent more hours researching more past time periods. It was worth while because I refined some of the method's details, such as orbs within fields, etc. What convinced me most of all that the method works was my study of the chart for the sun's entrance into Pisces in February of 2003, because the Iraq war--the invasion by the U. S. of Iraq--began precisely on March 20, when the sun was in the final degree of Pisces. However, the chart for 29 days earlier, when the sun entered Pisces, was far more revealing of the dire situation. It has, as you could see for yourself, Mars opposite Saturn within one degree! That is extraordinary because Mars, planet of war and Saturn, planet of dire suffering (at worst) are the two "malefic" planets according to the ancients and an opposition between them may be the worst aspect of all (although Mars opposite Jupiter is also said by CEO Carter to be among the worst). Pluto less then two degrees from Mars and opposite Saturn by less than three intensifies the aspect enormously. This is not going on on the actual day of the invasion, but in the much earlier monthly chart according to this method.

I believe we are on firm ground with exploring this method and we shall begin tomorrow, I hope, when I expect to write about the new month of Scorpio (beginning late Sunday or early Monday depending on your time zone).
