Mars entering Aquarius late election night surely brought in the November surprise. The nation is now experiencing shock and trauma and a real uncertainty about how the rhetoric coming from the President-elect will manifest. Neptune on the South Node square Saturn in Sagittarius also reflects the shake up in beliefs and truths. This points to the polarity of North Node in Virgo so we shall just pick ourselves up and move forward one step at a time. Uranus is the real mover and shaker and you can source similar periods in history (Industrial Revolution circa 1820) when masses were displaced due to the mechanization of society. Now, since Uranus/Neptune conjunctions in 1993 at 19-20 Capricorn, the reality of the technological age has caused similar seismic shifts from goods production to an information and service-based economy.

Neptune will be SD at 9* Pisces November 19. Remember, Mars has two year cycles to these outer planets, creating the timing our actions in achieving our desires. As the red planet enters forward-thinking Aquarius on Nov. 8th, will we see progressive views supported in this US election or will we have a big November surprise? Whatever happens, personal objectivity must be sourced to avoid clashes. Saturn's balsamic semi-sextile to Pluto in Capricorn also brings up societal angst: " Why can't people just see reality as I see it? " Finally, Venus makes a last quarter square to Chiron. Embody your personal truth given the self-healing you have earned this year. Chiron will be SD

It is observed as a time when the veil and boundaries between this world and the Otherworld is thinnest and communications can be facilitated. Astrologically, then, no wonder this New Moon of Scorpio and Mercury's exterior conjunction to the Sun, occur between 5-8* Scorpio. This new moon is all about meeting and honoring your emotional needs first in order to become more authentic. Remember, Scorpio can smell out incongruency and call out those conflicting messages with a bite. Be direct and to the point.

Reflections upon the recent retrogrades (Mercury and Pluto) turning stationary direct yield clearer understandings of what we desire collectively in our communities and personally with our relationships as we enter this Libran phase with Sun, Mercury and Jupiter there creating a T-square with Pluto and Uranus. Cardinal energies are pushing us forward. However, we are also aware that the Nodal Axis has been applying to squares to Saturn most of this year (February-November), becoming exact on October 7 at 12* Virgo/Pisces/Sagittarius respectively. We have to be acutely conscious of any blind-spots in our quest for ultimate self-responsibility. Mars' waning sextile to Neptune demands this as well. Neptune conjunct the south node of the Moon can easily hoodwink us into denial. A gentle and genuine surrender of the ego and allowing Source to filter through and synchronize decisions and choices is certainly a grand intention right now. Finally, Sun in Libra squaring Pluto may cause us to doubt if w

Equal amounts of tension and ease this Lunar Eclipse weekend with T-square formations being softened by some waning trines. First, Chiron has reached the halfway point of its retrograde cycle in Pisces opposing the Sun. As you connect to deeper levels of reunion to Source energy, what healing opportunities remain? Good time to meditate on that one and receive your epiphany. Mars is in a last quarter square to Chiron at the apex of a T-square with the Sun, all in the mutable signs.

Jupiter in Libra, for the next 13 months, will reveal and un-veil any distortions we still harbor in relationships that need to be released in creating harmony in our world.

We will complete the final of three last quarter squares between Saturn and Neptune this week at 10* Sagittarius/Pisces. The 2016 spiritual T-square amongst the Nodal Axis, Jupiter, Saturn, Chiron, and Neptune will yield many reality checks, especially in the midst of Mercury retrograde and Mars in Sag still square the Nodal Axis. What no longer works? Where does personal truth need to yield to universal truth? Finally, there is substantial "crisis in consciousness" energy in the sky right now with Saturn/Neptune, Venus/Pluto, Mercury/ Mars and Mars/Chiron. Our nervous system is challenged to process all

In the midst of Mercury's retrograde cycle in Virgo, we now have the Solar Eclipsed Sun at 10* Virgo. Solar Eclipses are new beginnings, therefore utilize this energy to determine what is no longer working and re-direct. By the way, Mercury will aspect 6 planets three times each during this retrograde period, so slow down, focus and anticipate delays. The Sun will also oppose Neptune and that is the halfway point of Neptune's retrograde cycle. The process of finding these new directions may not come easy. Neptune can reveal our fantasies and pie-in-the-sky thinking so confusion and let downs will have to be endured.

Tension continues in this Full Moon podcast with the spiritual T-square in the mutable signs on the nodal axis. Now, add in Uranus in Aries squaring the Sun Moon in Cancer Capricorn and it becomes somewhat understandable why people appear less flexible and more willing to back themselves into their respective camps and corners, avoiding compromise and compassion. This is the Full Moon of self-responsibility. Saturn is also is forming an applying square to the nodes and is also in a last quarter square to Neptune; a triple emphasis on the self responsibility theme. However, when we deny that it is us and feel out of control - yes, we are the leading actor in our various personal plays and scenarios - then anger and intolerance will be projected from those unsatisfying experiences causing strife and pain. The Sun, Mars and Chiron retrograde form a nice trine in water signs, peaking emotions. So decide if you are addicted to the tension and drama or are truly seeking relief. Breathe and know that you control the

Uranus and Mars are featured this week as the most interesting planetary pair.

Mars will make its third waning inconjunct to Aries Uranus (Mars' own sign of ruler-ship) July 13th. Control vs. Freedom are the core issues to resolve with these two.

Venus in Cancer squaring Uranus in Aries will provide sharp contrasts in our experiences.

The dominant themes of power struggles and polarized nationalism are represented by Mars, now direct in the often power-hungry sign of Scorpio, and the spiritual T-square of Saturn in Sag firing up the Neptune – Jupiter opposition in Virgo-Pisces conjunct the nodal axis. The true message of the T-square is to open up to new levels of service.

Feelings are being worn on sleeves right now with the inner planets in Cancer and Chiron, Pallas, the South Node of the Moon and Neptune in Pisces. Ask yourself: “What makes me feel good? What makes me happy?” Considering the extremes and polarization, this is your only true guidance system to trust. Venus will oppose Pluto and sextile Jupiter so rewards can be realized if you continue to create from a place of complete and utter self-reliance, and empower yourself and others.
