I went to the Homecoming football game for the high school last night. It was a really unusual game particularly for the fact of there being several dramatic injuries. I lost count of how many times there was a player down on the field with the teams taking a knee on opposite sides while coaches and paramedics hovered. The Moon and Mars were conjunct in Leo, dramatic injury, dramatic feeling, and these were all star players, Mars in Leo. Shockingly, the homecoming king himself was the first down on the field (Mars in Leo square Venus in Scorpio with Uranus on their midpoint).

Saturn exactly sextiled the Moon Mars conjunction. Each player lay on the grass, inert, for a long time (Saturn) then got up and walked away with barely a limp and resumed playing! Now that’s triumphant Leo drama. Near the end of the game, though, the last man injured lay still even longer. The ambulance pulled onto the field, then ten minutes later another joined it. Twenty minutes went by with no word from the announcer and the player was hidden from view from the home side of the stadium. When the injured player was finally loaded into the ambulance, the announcer told the crowd that the young man was just being taken for observation. The crowd cheered and applauded.

It was a dramatic Leo night supported by Saturn. It was also the longest football game I’ve ever attended, given the numerous halts in play. The home team won and there were even fireworks at half time. That much drama (Leo) is exhausting emotional work (Moon Saturn), but all’s well that ends well.

Have you ever examined the astrology of an unusual event in your life?
