Astrology Today: Why These Forecasts Suck - How About I Tell You?

My eye on the sky…

school booksI have resisted writing a daily forecast for years because they suck in many ways. And now I’m writing one and I am going to keep writing it because people like it but at times I am going to complain bitterly, like now.

Today I wrote about a big happy dog. You know those dogs who are exuberant? That’s the kind of dog I meant. But I am not having that kind of day. I’ll tell you how this day is going.

With all the Sagittarius energy, I want to travel. Uranus is involved so it’s an impulse. I want to GO! I want to go like one of those dogs with an extended puppy-hood. I want to go like a 2 year old Lab chasing a Frisbee into the next state. So there’s the energy but can I indulge it? NO!

I am a parent! I have Saturn (restriction) transiting in aspect to my natal Uranus (freedom urge) and I have to be here when my kids get home from school.

Further, today is the last day of school so I have other extra-credit things to do to make it special for my children and blah, blab, blah.

So yes There is happy dog energy but in my case, I just feel skittish. But you think I’m suffering? Get this:

I just got a mail from a 25 year old man who lost his mother s few days ago. He’s got a stellium in Scorpio and is getting absolutely creamed by the Saturn Neptune opposition. His whole family… well, you can imagine. He is excruciating pain. So how do you think he feels when he reads about a Happy Dog? :-(

But this energy did play in his life. It’s a full moon (female) conjunct Jupiter (foreign) that is supposed to be benevolent. And what am I? I am a foreign woman (he is in India). And when I got his mail I responded immediately with everything I had, so you see the energy is there. I actually do care about him.

The Moon Jupiter (benevolent woman) opposing Gemini (communication) square Uranus (humanitarian / the internet). That’s the t-square in action.

But does this help the uninitiated when they feel horrible and come across a forecast like this? No! So I say if you are going to read these things, learn how. And here is rule one:

If it doesn’t help you or seem relevant to you, then disregard it and come back tomorrow!

    Hey, fantastic blog! I discovered it when googling James Braha and his book on both vedic and western astrology. I have used both systems since discovering vedic astrology in 1990 when attending a Braha seminar. But he was not at all into western astrology then!
    Best wishes!

    You are great, Elsa :)
    I think most people understand that you try to do your best here (except for those who write to insult you…) and to help the most people you can. But if, at any time, you feel that the daily forecast isn’t working for you…well, this is your blog.
    I was trying to understand the reason why I was feeling like S*** yesterday in the transits but I didn’t find anything so I just thought…nevermind the transits, nevermind astrology today. And today I’m back feeling much better.

    Oh no wonder recently someone broke into my car a few weeks ago and this morning I woke up to a long line of cracked glass on my windshield on the lower left corner looking straight out from the driver’s seat! UGH!!! One thing after the other…big time…hope it ends soon…nice writing as always Elsa. Good luck with the kiddies!
