Mercury (27 Virgo) squares the Galactic Center (27 Sagittarius), whilst conjuncting Jupiter (26 Virgo) and Venus (24 Virgo).

Mars (10 Sagittarius) has just finished its conjunction with Saturn (9 Sagittarius) and both square Neptune / South Node (10-12 Pisces) and the North Node (12 Virgo). In roughly 9 hours´time, the Gemini Moon will complete a Grand Mutable Cross, linking all these bodies on the 25th of August.

Tomorrow (26 August), the Gemini Moon will go on to oppose Venus, Jupiter and Mercury in Sagittarius. Jupiter will enter 27 Virgo and square the Galactic Center directly.

The Great Goddess Grand Water Trine – with Juno, Black Moon Lilith, Vesta, Neptune and the South Node continues to bring us revelations on the Nature of the Dark Feminine (especially), and the karmic currents that we need to navigate in the Search of Her. This alignment will remain in place for the next 2…

Running headlong into the Mars-Saturn conjunction in Sagittarius and then squaring Neptune in Pisces this morning may make the already busy Gemini Moon even more hyper. Usually the Gemini Moon does quite well with information flowing in from all sides but not this time. Direct confrontation is not her style and that what’s she has to put up with from Mars and Saturn in fiery Sagittarius. Having to sort out truth from fiction when Neptune squares her only adds to her problems . . . and ours. Rather than attempting to make sense of what’s we’re told today, collect data and sit with it for a few days before deciding whether or not action is required. The pace may slow somewhat during the afternoon but there will still be plenty of activity. 🌠☾♊🌠

Very early in the morning, Venus in Virgo is inconjunct Uranus in Aries and we may have to contend…

Sagittarius-Mars square Pisces-Neptune. The last occasion when Neptune stayed in the 11th degree of the tropical Pisces was in 1853. But, the exact square between these two planets having stayed in these actual tropical degrees (i.e. Mars in the 11th d. of Sag. and Neptune in the 11th d. of Pis.) had happened a very long time ago, in September 1525. (Neptune was retrograde at that time too.)

This square indicates a sensual, impulsive and extravagant personality in speech and action who is self-indulgent and often unable to exercise restraint over himself. He/she can be a confused, sentimental and ’shapeless’ character who may express itself, depending on the circumstances, in either religion or atheism. With strongly afflicted Moon and Saturn, such people can be liable to become victims of ’discarnate spirits’ which may either use them as a ’medium’ or by permanently obsessing them. Often, it gives a tendency to…

The Mars-Saturn conjunction in SAGITTARIUS created a lot of devastating destruction. Two large earthquakes, one in Italy and one in Myanmar.  August 23 in Cincinnati, 20 heroin overdoses  were recorded and much more. MARS is also OUT OF BOUNDS, meaning he can’t be tied down. He is a loose cannon. 

How was your day? I came down with a cold. My  daughter was extremely emotional all day. She is a quadruple Pisces. Then she came home and was accidentally hit in the head { Mars /Aries rules the Head} by a rock,thrown by a friend. She is fine.

The energy shifts Aug 25 features Mars and Venus today, but not together.

“The red planet Mars has a number of positive attributes, as this celestial body has strong connections to sports, exercise, physical-emotional energy, courage, passions and desires that lead to hard-fought victories for what is noble and ideal. However, the shadow side of this planet has a kinship with anger, ego-impulses, rash behavior, inflammatory rhetoric and violent actions that can result in all kinds of discord.

Over the next three days, Mars seems to be looking for trouble rather than avoiding it as it makes an alarming, 135-degree link to Uranus (12:15AM today), proceeds to form an intense conjunction with Saturn (4:28AM tomorrow), and then moves on to make a worrisome square to Neptune (11:57PM on Thursday).

Moon in Taurus, laboratory process of Congelation – emotionally stable

If you find an affinity for any of these statements it’s good to know what’s ‘in the air’.

A good time to: decide which thoughts, or what methods, bring (or will bring) you the most fortunate circumstances in your life – or at least this week.

Challenges: Remaining alert to how expressing yourself is worth the risk of creating an unstable situation.

Balance: Let go of struggles by trying to see the purpose, or the reasons, behind them. Fly a kite, blow bubbles, feel the wind in your face, do something airy that will help you relax.

Sidereal astrology, from an individual viewpoint:

Keywords:
Sun in Leo – persistent, organizing = self-expressive
Moon in Taurus – changes, decisive = emotionally stable
Mercury in Virgo – mental, analyzing = methodical
Venus in Leo – pleasant, organizing…

Today, Mars and Saturn, two of the glorious bodies orbiting ceaselessly with us, are coming together in the sign Sagittarius.

This alignment can be viewed in a couple of different ways, but I see this as a moment in time to take up a challenge with integrity and make something tangible happen via your serious efforts. Yes, there will be the naysayers who only want you to believe that Saturn’s ability to stifle and stymie will simply put the brakes on any right efforts you’re attempting… but this is the lower vibration of these two engaging energies. The higher vibration of this combination is what my mom would’ve termed “elbow grease.”

If you’re not familiar with that old fashioned phrase, it means – get down to work and put your back into it. Full effort. Full energy. And when you’re finished, you’ll feel great. A sense of accomplishment based not only…

The qualities of Virgo encourage her to be steady and sensible yet flexible when the need arises…

• Virgo sees detail everywhere, all those little things that are so incredibly important to the smooth running of a home or a business, Virgo is onto them… However, because she craves perfection she can be overly critical not only of others but of herself too… this can push Virgo’s to work harder and longer then some of the other signs, but may also create upset as nothing may seem good enough… 
• 
  
  Happy to help and assist others, Virgo people are happiest when they feel needed and are kept busy, they have a fabulous down to earth, logical outlook on life and can put things in perspective for others… Great at trouble shooting..
• 
  
  Virgo’s love to keep lists and they need organization somewhere in their life to help them…

Hard Core Alchemy Astrology August 24. This is a very heavy karmic day.

MARS the warrior planet, of passion, sex, spontaneity, anger and fires, conjuncts SATURN, Lord of Time, Death, taxes, religion, foreigners, and cold hard reality.  They also meet up with ANTARES, the rival of Mars/ aka Archangel Uriel  @ 9+ degrees of SAGITTARIUS.

In astrology terms it could be labelled the WORST ASPECT DAY of 2016. Remember that some of the best days are coming up too. Mars and Saturn are considered to be  the most”afflicted” planets. Their conjunction is the heaviest of the heavies. Traditional astrology would tell you to stay home, stay safe, stay out of trouble. An earthquake just hit central Italy.  The danger of religious wars and terrorist attacks is on Red Alert.

Very synchronous is the fact that Destroying=Mars, History= Saturn was just made a War Crime and Saturn in Sagittarius is the law.

Mercury’s Earthy Focus During 2016

During 2016, Mercury’s retrograde focus has been on the Earth signs, which makes for a year when we have been likely reassessing the current structures of our lives and dealing with the practicalities.

Organisation, attending to the mundane, healthful eating and exercise regimes, de-cluttering of one’s home, office and/or car, day to day routine and the status of one’s bank account could all be featuring strongly this year.

It is a year of re-assessing our reality and for getting ‘our house in order’ so to speak.

Mercury Retrograde in Virgo

We have now entered the lead up period to Mercury’s third retrograde cycle of 2016, which will take place in the Earthy sign of Virgo.

Are you being pulled to re-address some of the finer detail within your life? What is requiring greater organisation?

Virgo is a sign greatly aligned with analysis and refinement, so…

Daily Forecast – Share Market – August 24th, 2016

Opening may be under pressure | Market may show positivity | Volatility expected

Sun is leading with Venus and Saturn, well supported by Rahu and Ketu. Mercury is involved in planetary war and is defeated, but will come out of this war during the day. Saturn and Mars will be in planetary war for a while.

I feel that market is trading with positive inclination and foreign cues may be better for the day. It will be better to trade wisely and keep your guards strong for sudden changes in the market or volatility.

Infrastructure, Power, Vehicles & alliances inclusive of battery and automobile tyres etc. Engineering and petroleum based companies may be doing better.

I will plan for two three days and then look for the market trend.

As of now, market may behave positively with Volatility. Next week, first…
