And happy Moon in Sagittarius!

I just posted this on the treasure cave thread but I'm reposting to give you an idea of what's around the bend.

The new moon conjoined Jupiter to start it all. Then enter Jup in Sag this weekend. Then Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter will all be together the 2nd week of December. Then comes the new moon in Sagittarius conjunct Pluto.
All this trines Saturn in Leo.
In between all of the inflation is a Full Moon in Gemini which should affect things around here:-)

We're On the up and up.

Well in the new spirit of magnanimity, Iraq, Iran, and Syria have decided to hold a summit.

The only little teeny thing to get through is the Mars/Saturn square. Nothin to it. We're pros. Just a little squeeze before Mars gets to meet up with his buddy Jupiter.

Well, sometimes apparent obstacles are really hidden opportunities.

What a wild herd! Maybe Saturn trine Pluto will help harness the power.

That is great!!

The Saturn trine Pluto already IS harnessing. Been going on for awhile.
Can you imagine if Saturn weren't there??

There is such a kick off into Sagittarius with this Jupiter and it really represents a big release from bondage.
I'm glad everybody's ready. Hate to miss these golden opportunities. It's a good energy and when it's synergized, so much can be accomplished beside just the pure fun.

Sometimes I think there are basically two worlds (not counting the infinite ones within). Those who are going on as usual with the everyday bloodbath with the celebrity stars and those who are traveling and meeting other stars.

I'm controlling myself at the moment. Doing my best not to take harness the power and gallop with it.

I do feel like I've been let out of the barn and there just happens to be an open gate. Reminds me of one of my favorite mares, Treela. She was small and spirited.

Yabba dabba do!!!! We're just getting started today with the Moon in Sag previewing what's coming up Thursday . . . talk about something to be thankful for! Plus I have tMars conjuncting nMars & heading for my nMercury & ASC . . . heaven help anyone who decides to pick at me, could give a whole new meaning to the phrase "Bite Me". Good for cooking up a storm tomorrow & Thursday AM.

Not too surprised there were horses in your life. I too have had a life long love affair w/the four footed cuties. My Libra friend w/Sag ASC/Venus LOVES them, and has started a business training them with great success. Somehow I expect her horse training venture will really take off over the next year. She's really very, very good at it . . Mars in Taurus gives her the patience and consistency to go with her love of them. I'm so proud of her!

It's great to see you zizzing & fizzing w/excitement and enthusiasm, jm! We're all going to be seeing nothing but dust . . . :-)

HA HA HA!!!

Well said. This too...

We're all going to be seeing nothing but dust . . . :-)

You've got Jupiter in the 1st for a nice stretch ahead so I expect some dust on your path too, which could be problematic for my sinuses!

So much of my life has been figuring out what to do with all the Sag energy, since others are usually a bit less enthusiastic. 4 years of varsity cheerleading only skimmed the surface, and traveling to the Himalayas helped a little.

What next?

That Mercury, Mars, Jupiter stellium coming up is exactly on your Venus. That should be quite a start to this 12 year Jup cycle.

ha, ha, ha!!! Let's see . . . can't really recommend gambling, another favorite Sag pastime. Learning Vedic Astrology?! Combines two favs - it was developed in an exotic country and qualifies as higher learning. Take up some new form of exercise, i.e., yoga, tai chi. You may do both or either already. I did yoga years ago, then switched to tai chi 'cause I got tired on being on the floor.

For some reason I keep thinking inward travel instead of traveling around the world. It is easier on the sinuses . . . :-)

What a great comment neith. Let me start...

LOL. They all tell me I need yoga and I hate it. That's why! I just want to get on my feet. A contortionist I'm not. A dancer sort of. I know I need to relax but I can think of better ways. And then they say I need to get used to it. Can't stand yoga! HA HA! "can't stand"!

I LOVE GAMBLING! But I'm still on my artist's budget. Maybe I should stay there and out of trouble. My Cap girlfriend with a Moon in Gemini found me at the Blackjack table one nite in our gambling town and she never let me forget it. She found it hilarious. I didn't. I lost money.

Vedic astroloy? Completely uninterested. Not my style. Pickiness, hocus pocus, and predictive nonsense. They all predicted a Kerry win too.

That is it exactly. You are so wise. Can't imagine what will happen with Jup in your 1st all year. I'm getting some new pencils.

So the Gasman's visit and lovely Venus in your 1st are all tempered by the ruler of your life, Pluto conjunct Saturn keeping your good sense intact. A modicum of self control. My ruler Mars bumps Neptune. If only I could find a self to control!

Gambling holds no attraction for me . . I've seen how it has affected others too many times. Now investing in new fabric for a really dazzling costume might be worth it!

Ha, Ha, Ha!!! That's why we're good for each other . . . :-) I usually need to lighten up! This past month or so w/all that stuff in Scorp has been pretty deep.

21/11/06 3:16 PM  
Blogger jm said...

Mars through the 12th is one of my most disliked events in life. Let sleeping Marss lie, I say. Your 12th House Mars doesn't like to be aroused I'm sure. Well thankfully it's brief.

If you need the lightening up, I need the grounding just as much. So you're right. Good exchange.

I gamble with life, actually. I've sacrificed just about everything for the freedom to be an artist unencumbered. I believe in a jackpot, and if I play my hand well, I could hit it. I can't decide, though if that means toiling in obscurity to create the masterpiece I envision or if it's success in the world. But with Pluto coming to my MC, I think I'm coming to a conclusion. Maybe my public persona is the masterpiece. That would be fun!

When TPluto in the 10th opposes my Sun and really sucks me out of my cacoon, I'll be 72. I hope I have teeth! I'll need them for my lyrics.

That would bring many facets of who you are together all right.

Remember that the Sun in our composite is in Virgo....grounding & healing all in one! :-)

Make that Sun, Mercury and Venus in Virgo sextile Moon in Scorp. . . sounds like a gentle grounding to me!!

21/11/06 3:36 PM  
Blogger jm said...

YES! I remember that composite and liking it very much. Going to look at it again.

The other fascinating thing, neith, is our opposite nodes. so each of us has the ancient knowledge the other is seeking. Like crossing paths. I've always studied this exchange especially.

I have relationships mastered, you have independence and survival mastered. This arrangement can be the best when it works.

Gentle grounding would be lovely for this crash pilot! Nice glissando onto the runway, and then a complete stop, the hardest part of all.

It's the time I'm often at work in front of the computer - very enjoyable astro chats! You & Kad are often on the night shift together for your conversations . . BTW, the composite for the two of you features a Libra Sun. Composites are one of those little side paths in astrology that can add dimension to relationship readings.

Thanks neith! Does that make sense or what!
You mentioned before our Cancer/Capricorn axis and the twain meet beautifully.

I keep forgetting about those. Gotta print'em up.

It's funny. When I saw all the Virgo in ours I felt immediately that the negative Scorpio might be mitigated (My SN in Scorp can be troublesome).

Scorpio continues to amaze me in its capacity for both extreme not-niceness and the best in goodness.

I have found advanced scorpios to be the most generous of the signs, financially included.

In terms of the NN in the 7th, and other strong placements....it's quite a dilemma since the center of the system becomes the other very often. You first. In some ways it seems unnatural since we are supposed to revolve around the center in ourselves. What I think happens with the 7th is that the other actually IS the personal center many times. Works beautifully if recognized.

My Aries is often the personal center in our relationship - he has Saturn & Neptune in his 7th which helps bring that about. It wasn't until I read your statement that it clicked in my head that was the case. And another example of a recurring theme of the 1st/7th axis in our synystry.

Just got back and here it is. Another delicious comment right in rhythm.

That's interesting about his Neptune and Saturn. You're absolutely right about the Nep making it easy to make him the center. I didn't know this fact. The Saturn can help make it work right and encourage him to work at the relationship. Great for your node. At first I was wary of all his Aries, but this modifies it tremendously.

I was thinking that the Uranus in your 4th now squaring your node would put a strain on the marriage with the family demands. But the Neptune would help with understanding that it's a phase.

You do locate him centrally. You always mention him as though he's there all the time in your experience even when apart.

I had the SN need to not put energy into relationship and mine had a Moon in Libra so he did all the maintenance. He had two planets on my NN so I was able to concentrate on myself to some extent.

It has been difficult at times, however I have been clear that my first priority is our relationship. He also has Venus in Pisces in his 12th house, so that continues the Neptunian theme. He & Casey are very close in age & share that 0Pisces NN. Casey's is on the cusp of her 11th house, and my S/O's is exactly on the cusp of his 12th.

Uranus transits are always just full of surprises . . . and any transit of the angles is sure to get one's attention. I keep waiting for the other "shoe" to drop! Can you feel the speed beginning to pick up?!

LOVE VENUS IN PISCES!

My best friend for 20 years, an Aquarius, had this Venus and I've never seen such devotion in friendship.

Can you feel the speed beginning to pick up?!

How the hell would I know with my 1000 Uranus aspects???? The whole damn thing is spurts, fits, starts, stops, stripping of gears, and even moments of peace. A few.

You know that's interesting. I did notice the overall speed out there and what I think is different is that it's real instead of the hyped up overactive phony speed I so often get from daily events. As if real excitement is missing. That doesn't happen in a Uranian's life.

ha, ha, ha! I have two more Uranus aspects that I "forget" . . . Uranus is almost exactly 150 degrees (inconjunct)to Mercury/and Mars too. It was the "stripping of gears" that brought that to mind . . . Gemini & Scorpio have like nothing in common! If it wasn't for Mercury being the common denominator, it would be even harder to synchronize those energies.

I'm fascinated by inconjuncts. My Moon and Sun are in one. yours is close enough to be powerful. I have a great little book on inconjuncts by Buz Myers and I'll look this up.

I think in such a close degree the energies find a way to get together as disparate as they are. The Gem/Scorp combo is particularly interesting to me. You are right. The Merc in Scorp gives this an advantage.
I have a Sag friend with a Scorpio stellium in the 3rd and she's one of the most brilliant people I know. The Scorpio depth of research with Mercury is great. That's what she does, in fact.

Your aspect with the Merc in Scorp is probably why you glean so much good info from the Net. Match made in heaven.

Here's another interesting factoid, neith. All your planets are above the line from the end of 1st house to the end of the 7th. Except Uranus and the NN. I think this adds emphasis. And that gorgeous trine to your Sun. That helps the Node, which is trine your Moon/Nep. The ruler of the node is Mercury...in Scorp and in the inconjunct. So the Uranus figures in quite a bit.
