2016-04-06 Calendar of Aspects

April 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 15 (W15)

Sun squares Pluto and you will either collapse from the energy expended yesterday or you will become even more determined to fight the fight and get things done. At least to some degree, the choice is up to you. Moon is very old, and will favor you if you choose to clear out the grime that has been holding you back.

Again: (1) do not start anything new but (2) you can get a “deal” today since buyers are favored over purchasers.  Just make certain it is something you need and will actually use lest it remain unopened in some corner waiting to be disposed of later, maybe when Mercury is retrograde.

Mercury Sesquiquadrate Saturn tells us that you can, and should, pay attention to details.  In your effort to clear and clean out, organize as you go.  Be careful not to misplace something that goes out in the trash.  Do everything meticulously today, step by step.

Outer planet aspects are very busy again today, and you can learn something especially useful and important in the future as Jupiter forms a quadrinovile to Pallas.

2016-04-04 Calendar of Aspects

April 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 15 (W15)

Moon moves into Pisces shortly before 1 AM CDT and remains there until 5:33 AM CDT Tuesday morning when it goes void again (in Pisces).  You may encounter glitches today, especially regarding the legal system (especially courts), universities (or other higher education), or long distance travel today.  (If none of these apply, then health could be an issue.)  This is true because the Sun (Aries) makes its annual quincunx to Jupiter (Virgo) today.  A very loose mutable T-Square is in play adding to the anxiety and aggravation as we try to make final plans in one of these areas and “things” do not work out as we wish.

If any of this planning involves activities beginning near April 17th through April 28th (and into the Mercury / Mars retrogrades), then iron out the bugs today.  More will likely crop up, but this is a very good time to eliminate as many as you can (especially if this is a vacation).

Similar to yesterday, Mercury is active and Mercury BiQuintile North Node may yield an insight on how to eliminate some old karma and move forward.

Outer planets are comparatively quiet but Juno is in two of three aspects telling us that trust issues (and possibly deceit) are important today.

Week 15 (W15)

The advantages of Friday and Saturday continue today until the Moon moves void (v/c) at 6:16 PM CDT.  Get done what you can today, and then rest this evening.

We note that this is a very Mercurial day, and if you write for a living (especially if you are, say, a journalist), you will be struggling to meet an urgent deadline (Mercury Semisquare Uranus).

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 14 (W14)

Moon remains void (v/c) in Sagittarius until it enters Capricorn at 12:45 PM CDT.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Today is very busy, and you will feel it.  Venus conjoins Chiron during the lunar void, and you will feel the need to “do something” about health (or education) needs.  You can act, but realize that you will likely need some kind of “do over” or adjustment after the Moon enters Capricorn.

Mercury squares Pluto, and some rather nasty power struggles can emerge.  If you are aware of a “situation” that is “brewing” then prepare for it.  Sun / Neptune adds a hazy feel to the day at times and the possibility of being swindled.  In the evening all of this can be channeled into creative works as long as they tend to have a practical “grounded” quality to them.

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 14 (W14)

If you focus yourself, you can accomplish much today.  Obstacles and snags will be present, but it will worthwhile to pay attention to details and avoid any puffery that presents itself.  Stick to the facts, and complete everything before the Moon turns void (v/c) at 8:56 PM CDT.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Mercury Trine Saturn favors progress if you are a Fire or Air sign.  Earth / Water do better with this aspect in general, but Fire / Air have the advantage today.  Mercury quincunx Jupiter says puffery (“Salesmanship,” BS, etc.) is present; avoid it.  Venus opposite North Node (and conjunct South Node) tempts us to “take the easy way out.”  Do not do that.

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 13 (W13)

Moon is void (v/c) all day in the sign of Scorpio.  Use this day as down time / post-processing from the powerful events of yesterday and the week that preceded it.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Numerous higher order aspects are in play.  Mercury / Neptune tells us this could be a good day for writing photography, videography or other similar efforts.  Moon v/c tells us that a “do-over” may be needed, but the initial effort will be worthwhile.  Mercury Quadrinovile the North Node tells us you may receive an insight or learn an important skill for dealing with some kind of karma in the future.  Make notes about what you learn.  Sun is Binovile Pluto, and that confirms that insights can be had today.

Vesta Sesquiquadrate Hygeia gives us some sense of urgency about health and healthcare and “how we have always done things.”  Use those insights from the quadrinoviles to solve this problem.

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 13 (W13)

Thursday March 24th

Mercury trines Mars today, and you should accomplish all you can prior to Moon becoming void of course after its opposition to Uranus at 3:56 PM CDT.  The aspect (the opposition) can bring some very smart ideas, but you need to wait until you have more information, some time Friday afternoon (tomorrow), before you attempt to put those into action.  Take this “time off” to do as much research as you can and lay the foundation without making any major commitments to move forward.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Mercury aspects pepper the day, and we find that transportation and communication come to the forefront.  Mercury Trine Mars brings spirited words, but violence can be avoided (and progress made) if you make the necessary attempt.

Mercury Quadrinovile Jupiter tells us that we can have an important insight or learn a new skill to stop similar problems in the future.  Saturn and Juno aspect late, also, and this tells us that we should take a hard look at who we should (or should not) trust.

Chiron conjoins Ceres, and issues of our prosperity as it relates to health and healthcare, education, or both come to the forefront.  Chances are good that money is an issue, or soon will be.

Pallas is quincunx North Node, so put any action on “bright ideas” on hold until later, maybe Saturday.

Some of you have been feeling the upcoming Saturn Retrograde station (tomorrow) all week.  This tends to be true if you are heavily invested in a corporate setting or are involved with the financial services industry.  Do not be surprised if you see a minor shakeup this week.

2016-03-21 Calendar of Aspects

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 13 (W13)

Today is the “Ecclesiastical” beginning of Spring (used as part of the determination of when Easter occurs).  Moon is in Virgo all day and quite active.  Mercury enters Aries in the evening and is void (v/c) prior to that.  Communications and transportation problems may emerge during this window; do not buy a vehicle, computer, or phone during this time.

Moon becomes void only a few hours later, making it difficult to accomplish anything lasting today.  Stick to routine tasks and plans for action after the eclipse on Wednesday.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Mercury makes higher order aspects on this day, so smart ideas will likely come to you including ideas about how to help those less fortunate than yourself.  If you do help others, do it during the void anonymously and without thought, hope, or expectation that you will receive favorable recognition for it.  Do it only to help someone, anonymously, and without any other thought or intention.

Ceres quincunx Astraea adds an unfavorable cast to today, and unexpected fines or taxes (or other legal matters) might affect your prosperity.  Focus that bright idea you get on how to solve that problem.  Jupiter / Vesta hints that we will need to decide between sticking to “tradition” (or unwritten rules) or challenging them to accomplish what you need to do.

March 2016 (Mars Out)

Week 12 (W12)

We have written extensively about this day elsewhere concerning the amazing compendium of patterns that are present and just how important we believe March 14th (and March 15th) are as a turning point for many people.

[Click Image to Enlarge]

We will not duplicate our analysis of patterns here.  But, today is noteworthy for both (1) Venus Square Mars and (2) Mercury Square Saturn.  Venus square Mars days CAN be GREAT days for romance.  But, sometimes lovers fight on these days.  Sometimes both things are true!  If “it” is not about romance in your life, then you are in a position to scrutinize “how you get things done,” particularly in the arts and in spiritual matters.

Mercury Square Saturn is all about paying attention to details, especially in matters of transportation and communication.  It can also be about searching for, and rectifying, bookkeeping and accounting errors.  Do not be sloppy today.  Cross every “t” and dot every “i.”

Again: you will want to check the analysis of patterns for today.

Sun is quincunx the North Node, and we need to STOP if we are engaging in misguided efforts to “help” someone.  This is a time when bad legislation will likely be passed, legislation that does far more harm than good, and judicial decisions and opinions are handed down that do precisely the same: more harm than good.  (That is true both yesterday and today.)  Do know that you can obtain special insights and knowledge today, but postpone acting on them until some later, better, day.  Though the Moon is not void, stick to routine if you can.  And, do write down those insights.  You really can use them later.
