Astrology Today: October 1, 2012 – Releasing Tension

September 30th, 2012 @ 5:00 pm by Satori

“It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.”
–C.S. Lewis

The Red BalloonMonday the Moon in late Aries starts out in aspect with the Venus Mars square, trining Venus and quincunxing Mars. It also opposes Saturn conjunct Mercury in Libra. This brings the emotional readiness to assimilate and make use of Saturday night’s full moon revelations. With some work you can make inroads on solidifying an actionable plan to begin working on getting your needs and desires met. This involves scaling back on just what those things are. What are your BASIC needs and desires?

An important step in that plan includes getting real about your perceptions regarding those needs and desires, and then communicating them in appropriate ways. The first part of this process is in thoroughly understanding them yourself. The greatest barrier may come from within yourself. Look for places you could be projecting responsibility for your own emotions. Neptune squares Mars and opposes Venus, so look closely for illusions where you may be fooling yourself about where things go wrong.

Monday evening the Moon crosses into Taurus and a grand trine with Venus and Pluto. This brings an earthy mood ripe for deep self-satisfaction and some relief from the Pluto-Uranus-Sun t-square. There’s the ability to enjoy yourself and expiate some of the built up stress and hard feelings all that tension in the sky creates. Grounding yourself is good medicine that will pay off as the tension mounts in the coming week. Tear down the tension and release the negativity where you can.

Wait… “Monday evening the Moon crosses into Taurus and a grand trine with Venus and Pluto” …

with Venus and *Saturn*?

Actually, that doesn’t work either… Looks like Pluto is far afield from the 28 of Sag.

The day of the Equinox, I was meditating in the sun and saw myself in a big egg that was starting to crack and I knew I was being reborn and it felt good. I feel like I’m changing in a different,more positive way. I’ve always loved C.S.Lewis.

Venus at almost 29 degrees (rounding up) Leo widely (out of sign) trines Pluto at 7 degrees.

me too on the C.S. Lewis love… “further up and further in!”

I’m more likely to apply a wide orb to an applying aspect with a faster moving planet edging up on an outer planet… particularly one involved in some serious ‘bidness’. also, with the Moon moving from exact trine with Venus applying into exact trine with Pluto overnight…. I find the connection appropriate.
