Astro-Weekend Update

It is sometimes easy to forget the mysteries that life presents, as we go about our daily routines. Above, “Sagittarius A”, a supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way. Astronomers used NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory to look at stars within 70 lightyears of Sagittarius A. They believe a swarm of smaller black holes surround the supermassive black hole.

On Saturday, we see a very harmonious day come Saturday, as the Moon shows five harmonies with Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Chiron, and Neptune. Let your Spirit take the lead as you enjoy the day, and share it with loved ones. When you can put the cares of the world aside and truely engage in fun pursuits, it is then that you are true to your spirit and acting in the interests of your health.

“…remember that life is about meeting change, and enjoying growth, and you can’t get there without overcoming a few things.”

Sunday brings a day with lots of celestial energies in play — Mercury takes an active role dancing nice with both Jupiter and Chiron, why the Moon is in trine with Pluto, but showing stress with four other planets, including Mercury. Mercury is all about Communication, so keep your wits about you and if you listen carefully to family and loved ones today, you can find ways to grow your relationships, and even do some healing where that’s a factor.

Monday shows some squaring off between planets happening in the heavens. These are really opportunities to resolve problems — remember that life is about meeting change, and enjoying growth, and you can’t get there without overcoming a few things. Today, keep an eye on what your are feeling that can actually block your progress and pay attention to what new ideas you need to tell important people.

Tuesday finds the Moon (Emotions) at odds with Venus (Love), and the Sun (Personality) in opposition with the Moon. It is not uncommon to behave one way while feeling quite another. Different cultures are taught to cover up and hide certain emotions. This can give you an out of balance feeling. The tough part comes when what you’re hiding is directly related to Love. You an find resolution in the right timing, with the right message. First be truthful with yourself, so that you will be able to then speak truthfully and freely to those you love.

Saturday finds the Moon squaring off with Pluto, but working in conjunction with Uranus. Now you might have some new ideas for the fall season of life, but you have a feeling that you just can’t get there yet. That’s ok. New ideas take time to unfold and grow. Just plant the seeds — you can harvest later. Yesterday’s Full Moon will give you some much needed energy for recreation. Enjoy your time off this weekend.

“Monday: Moon is also in harmony with Jupiter (growth), Chiron (health), and Neptune (Spirituality) — a day of great blessings when strength of Spirit also brings you emotional healing.”

Sunday shows some stress points with Chiron — the Healer — so you’ll have an opportunity to examine your feelings. It’s possible you feel that something is holding you back. What is it, and precisely how does it bind you? It may also be that to someone close to you… it feels like you are forcing an issue. Maybe you don’t have to “push it”, but instead can actually get farther by listening and remaining positive. Pray for discernment in these matters.

On Monday, most in the US are on vacation before the busy Fall season starts. It’s a good day love relationships as the Moon (emotions) dances in trine with Venus — the planet of love. Use the time off to take your mate out for brunch and a walk in the park. The Moon is also in harmony today with Jupiter (growth), Chiron (health), and Neptune (Spirituality) — a day of great blessings when strength of Spirit also brings you emotional healing.

Tuesday brings an opportunity to take the lead on initiatives which will bring needed change in your projects at work, and relationships at home. Coming off the energy you gained from the Full Moon vacation weekend, you can use it to transform the playing field. Remember, change is always a factor, and you can wait and be tugged along by it, or embrace it and lead the charge. It’s like a wave — ride it, or wait let it break over you. Take some time to write down five ideas on how you can be instrumental with positive changes in your career and in your love life.
