Dear Wife,

I am going to tell you what’s happening. I’m sorry if the astrology is dense but you’re writing an astrologer and this is bound to happen now and then!

First, Uranus is transiting Pisces. At the moment, it’s at 7 degrees Pisces, applying to your Sun at 8 degrees Pisces. Consequently you want out! You want free! You want change. You’ve HAAAAAAAAD it. You want a revolution, and on this level, it’s very intellectual.

But people are complicated, as are their charts, as is life. And rarely is there only one thing influencing them. So while the Uranus transit plays as described above, you’ve got another thing to deal with here: the current Fixed Grand Cross in the sky.

A Grand Cross is basically a planetary train wreck. It occurs when four planets in the sky are at a 90 degree angle to one another, forming the shape of a square. Something like this affects the entire collective, but is more personal when you have planets in your chart near the points where these planets collide.

As an example, if this were an earthquake, people like you with planets in the mid-degrees of the Fixed Signs where this is taking place… well that would be like living on the fault line. Compare to people with nothing in their charts in the Fixed Signs. They might feel the rumble and know some people got hurt in a neighboring city… but they’d be less impacted.

So you’re in the first group and here’s an idea how it plays. The planets involved are Mars, Saturn, Neptune and Jupiter. Each planet lends its energy and there is no natural affinity or agreement. Like this:

• With Mars in involved, you want to take action and you want to take it now.
• With Saturn involved, you’re thwarted, and forced to be responsible.
• With Neptune involved, you’re confused. Not sure what you’re doing until you are and then aren’t and then are. There is also desire to escape… ala get drunk! Or take a Valium.
• And with Jupiter in the mix, it’s all bigger than life and furthermore, people want to be righteous!

Got that?

So here’s what I’d do. Chill for the rest of the year, for sure. Don’t try to untangle it, let it untangle itself. Because this will happen. Planets move, as do people.

And in the meantime - for distraction, amusement, and amazement - look around you and note how many people are caught in their version of this same scenario. Somehow it’s reassuring to know we are all part of the same universe. Good luck.
