Astrology: Electrical Malfunctions, Frustration, Fire

     Now Mercury and Pluto in earth sign Capricorn are the only planets keeping us grounded.
     Air/Fire transits may be creating numerous electronic glitches.
    Venus moved into Aquarius today; Mars is already in Aquarius. And Aquarius is not only an air sign, but can be unpredictable, and sometimes an unstable wild card.
     With Jupiter still in another air sign (Libra), and Sun and Saturn conjunct in fire (Sagittarius), trine Uranus in another fire sign (Aries), electrical/electronic equipment may act up, short out, turn off, etc.       All this air and fire is also, unfortunately, combustible -- both temperamentally and, sadly, literally.
      At least the Moon (emotion) is in Pisces, keeping us calm until tomorrow when it, too, enters a fire sign -- fierce Aries -- not the best place for the Moon in general, much less in a time of frustration.
      But Mercury in Capricorn can help us center ourselves and think calmly through confusion to solutions.

Good Time to Start Your Own Blog

    For those who have asked about starting your own website or blog, there are several options.
    You could use Blogger, which this is, or go to websitetooltester.com to compare your choices.
    It's a good time to begin with beautiful Libra and organized Virgo transiting.

Astrology: Cardinal Grand Cross/Taurus Moon

Although by tomorrow the moon will be moving from Aries to Taurus where it will be firmly positioned on Friday, there is still unpredictability in the wide Cardinal Grand Cross that remains.
     Chances are the predominance of transiting earth signs, including this Taurus Moon, will be better for those who have a strong earth natal chart.  Taurus is luxury and solidity. Unlike Aries, it slows things down. It loves comfort, and under the present sky, there might be a tendency to overeat, drink, or spend money lavishly. You may want to stay inside, relax, indulge, but with all the Capricorn earth also transiting, discipline will most likely kick in and prevent this kind of overindulgence.  At the very least, it will be easier to access will-power than under other Taurus moons. But at this time, indulging might be better than enduring too much stress.
      The continuing wide Cardinal Grand Cross is concerning.  It's like a roulette wheel: You never know what's going to happen.  The best you can do it throw the dice and pray for luck.

Astrology Update: Seattle vs Green Bay

Two days ago I wrote about power struggles worldwide and the addition equation of predominant Libra, sign not only of justice, but of indecision as the scales of balance waiver as they weigh opposing factors to achieve balance.
     So in the United States Monday night, there was a football game (the United States loves football the way other countries love soccer).  This particular game was controversial because of a disputed last minute call by referees (filling in while professionals arguing a contract dispute are not permitted to play),
     As I mentioned in Monday's blog, astrological transits are causing competing forces to erupt in conflict unpredictably.  Anger, injustice, unpredictability are all components of this struggle (see Monday's blog).
    Ultimately, one of several results could spring from this conflict.  The first is that by some twist of fate, justice will reveal itself in events unfolding to ultimately bring unexpected good fortune to the ultimate "winners" (Those deemed winners by universal justice); or (2) Libra's long process of coming to a decision will ultimately overturn the ruling (if it is incorrect), and (3) the professional referees will quickly be returned to the field, a given in this case.
    Keep in mind that the workings of the sky, like nature itself, are far more powerful than human drama, and as Ghandi would say, Good will always prevail.
    In a world of injustice, it is wise to recall that ultimately justice can prevail...although the wait may seem interminable, and the scales of balance lopsided far too often.
