The Cosmic Climate

Happy Halloween. On Friday, Mercury (Communication) is playing well with Uranus (the planet of new ideas and inventions), so get ready to talk about inventive ways to solve problems, and work through new projects. Talk is good — planning and strategic thinking will help you actually get to the solution. Hey… maybe you can apply this to your pumpkin carving? Venus, the planet of Love, is also working well with Chiron, the great healer, today. Obvious message, isn’t it? Love can heal all wounds. But you have to open your heart for that to happen.

“Often we feel tugged in two directions. How can we try our new inspirations, but do so in a practical way?”

Earlier this week, the Moon was squaring off with Neptune (planet of Spirituality and also Illusion), but with Mercury (Communication) working well with Neptune. This made it possible for you to talk about spiritual matters and beliefs with those you care about, but might have left an uneasy feeling about it. How did that go? Often there is spirituality behind politics, as in what differing candidates base their crucial decisions upon. The Spirit guides our discernment and so our decisions. From the Spirit comes principles. Important things to talk about, but also topics likely to stir up emotions. State your truth quietly and clearly.

Saturday finds a very active Moon dancing with seven planets, and tangoing well with Mercury, Neptune, and Chiron. Communication, Spirituality, and Healing. When you work out your Spiritual message, based on right priciples and integrity, then you will find that your life takes the path of healing. But the Moon is also at odds with both Saturn (practicality) and Uranus (new ideas). Often we feel tugged in two directions. How can we try our new inspirations, but do so in a practical way? Feel restrictive? Actually this is a good form of tension, which can bring your new plans in on budget — and budgets are very good in these times.

Sunday is a good day for renewal and rejuvenation. Where can you go for a quiet break, a good book, and a cup of java? If it’s raining, then enjoy a cozy cafe with your romantic interest. This is not a day for new initiatives. Just a day to celebrate what feels comfortable. There’s a time for action, and a time to rest. Enjoy it.

Monday — the day before the election — is looking like a good one to “bring it on.” The Moon is working well with the Sun (personality) bringing a nice balance to your endeavors, and also with Uranus — New Ideas — so go into work and roll up your sleeves. You have what it takes to “get on with it.” New ideas are also good things to introduce into your love relationships. Cook a new meal, plan a new trip, even watch a new TV show. Then observe how that affects the dynamic between you.
