Summer Astrology 2010 

Main personal message of Summer:
“Whittle, whittle, whittle, whittle,
whittle away what you don’t need,
what you don’t want, what you don’t use,
who you’re not, how it was, when you were, blah blah blah.
The bright air of today,
when you whittle away,
is promising.”

Main collective message:

It’s time to drop judgment about who has done what at any point in time. It’s time to start right here and let go of the past as the cost of retaliation is too high. Summer’s violence is a sign to escalate nothing. It’s the signal forget everything but the seeking of common values that create sustainable life.

How to create beauty and connection this Summer:

This is an important time to offer yourself as a center in some way, and share what you care about. It could be an online community or in your place. Summer encourages community-building and becoming more effective in giving what you’ve got. Let the whole landscape light up with little centers of purposeful activity!

…the rest:

Worst move to make this Summer: Engage in difficult behavior with anyone: Instant karma! Intense reactions!

Summer life lessons:

People tend to learn the hard way now–this is the time of “giant wake-up calls”, but it can be just how they get on the right track.

Summer vision in the air:

People grieving; more people going into service; people hard-scrabbling; places uncared-for; a crazy person flying low under the radar, who feels called to deliver some fate to the East and East Coast.  (And with that weird message and to avoid connecting with future anguish, I think I’ll resign from my self-appointed position of psychic news reporter at large.) Earthquake/volcano vibes in Chile and Peru.

On a happier note:

This Summer, wishes are granted in a very big way. Payment is received, people get what’s due them. Necessary solutions are discovered. More people open up to spiritual guidance than ever before.

Summer 2010 Guidance for the Astrologcial Signs–read your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs

Aries: What seemed like a good idea yesterday might seem scary the next, but it looks like a case of the jitters, and that by August you can see the positive results of sticking with an inspired plan. It’s kind of an iffy time personally but don’t let that interrupt what you’ve begun. You’re breaking out of patterns and bubbles, you can smash through your obstacles now if you want, and one thing that helps is the recognition you get for your gifts.

Taurus: Accept all invitations! And give some out, too: entertaining can benefit you. This summer you learn what you truly enjoy, which may be different than what you’ve been idealistically committed to. Actual experience will inform you. A lack of enthusiasm and a depressing reality may be how you begin this season, but you are growing in compassion and love, and throughout this year you steer yourself towards greater personal fulfillment. Whatever you do, choose to make yourself happy–that’s your mission.

Gemini asks: ” How to get to the top? How do I get to be in a place of knowledge and peace and tranquility? How do I rise above it all?” And the spirits say “Well, you ask too many questions. You demand too much of yourself and everything…relax, chill out…let things emerge from your body; the knowledge of your body can inform you more; listen to your needs for fun. Be sure to do a couple of fun things a week, this Summer.”

Cancer: You might find yourself alone with a heavy heart; you can squeeze its burdens out like a sponge, and ask to be filled with better feelings, closer connections…make the choice to be happy! Be willing to receive! Here’s the surprise: Cancers are headed for a lot of success and it comes when they are more on their own, working with their own strengths and resources. Their gifts are desired, and they can proceed to successfully delivering them. “Everything’s been going wrong!” sobs Cancer. “But you’ve gotten rid of a lot!’” says the spirit of goodness and holiness. You can be blessed with imaginable treasures when you’re not looking back. You have what it takes to carry you forward–find your strengths, the stability you can rely on, and build from there.

Leo: At first you can be filled with doubt, in a nervous place wondering whether you’re being led right: Are your ideas to change things about your work and who you’re with inspired by your highest good? It looks that way, but change is uncomfortable. The stars say you should be trying to go into new territory in a lot of different ways. In the big picture, you are likely to be reconfiguring your life, and if you aren’t, you probably should be–it’s just that time when everything comes due, and the life-changing choice of the “right path” is what you’re crossing over to.

Virgo: Your fate is unclear this Summer, a condition you are likely to weather as circumstances and relationships eventually sort themselves out, and your place or path becomes clear. If you don’t wait it’s because you really want something and you act to acquire it, but more likely others make your position clear. “I want to leap beyond myself” says the deeper self of Virgo, who yearns for freedom of spirit. “I want a lot of closed cases in my life. I want to feel beneficent towards those who are left.”

Libra: There’s something you really want to find out that settles matters this Summer, and you do. What you learn allows you to more easily make a transition, and you can end up in a more powerful place, knowing much better what will create substance in your life. Just wait for Spring’s events to bring results and information you can act on. Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, and their Venutian side comes out this Summer as they seek balance: “I need my pretty self, I need my pretty side, I need to be around pretty things, that’s a real tonic for me this summer. It’s hard to stay light, there can be difficulty with family, I need to balance that out by caring for myself, and respecting my limits.”

Scorpio: Halleluljah! You now are feeling safe and out of the fray. You’ve made it, you’re at peace, things are different, you’re much calmer, something is over… and something can begin as soon as you get some rest. Expect to be releasing like crazy… just let your body and your heart’s desires take over as you clean off the last few years. You have a lot to get rid of. Then make good on your vow to tackle your challenges, and create a more interconnected life.

Sagittarius: You have the instinct to “go for it”, to keep on going with your plans that require boldness and bravery. Someone or some event can realign you and make you feel back on course. Things are good! Your spirit says, “I want to be really grounded. I want to be “still” more of the time. I want to regroup. I want to look at all my checks and balances and where I stand, where my material assets are. I want to learn from others and I have opportunities to do that, especially in October and February.”

Capricorn: It’s stressful, but you are turning onto the right road, getting on the right long-term path. It can be a difficult beginning as you do whatever it takes to get onto the right course. Your new ideas are strong, you’re happy about what you can develop, but expect to work hard to get yourself on board. New skills and abilities can emerge from your depths.

Aquarius: At first you are waiting for signs to direct you, feedback from the Universe, messages from your own source, and you may be doing something new that helps you connect. You want a higher vision for your life. It looks like a lot more is going to be happening shortly, and it will help get things rolling to take a trip, or get out of town for awhile. “You want to be like royalty: to rise above the fray, yet this time in your life breaks you down in some way to cause a spurt of personal growth. Outside help might guide you to put the focus on you and how you handle things, rather than the obstacles themselves.

Pisces: It should be perfectly clear if something is a bad idea, or that something isn’t going to work out; in some way you can be dealing with loss. If you are dealing with adversity, it can make you walk away and into a better place, or it can catalyze a beneficial identity change. Re your own personal path, your spirit says: “I want to go down deep, I want to listen; I want to know in a stillness, the truth for myself about certain things. I am liberating my hands, my creativity, my potential, my possibilities. I am working on a deep level this Summer, but in a gentle way, to rise above.”

  It's All Good Astrology, by Benjamin Bernstein

"Your forecast is the best, in my opinion, because it's so readable, absorbable, & 'user friendly.' There are a number of planetary updates that I receive, but sometimes they are overwhelming and hard to absorb. Yours is just right." -- Kristine

August 2010

Whatever your sun sign, this forecast will help you choose how to best use each month’s astrological energies! Events are most powerful on the dates listed. However, their influence will be active for at least several days before and after. All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone.

While everyone is affected by these global transits, you will be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate natal planets and other sensitive points in your birth chart. 

VOID-OF-COURSE MOONS 

It's best to avoid starting important new projects or making major purchases during these times. "Business as usual" is the best strategy for these periods, which occur when the Moon has made its last major Ptolemaic aspect but has not yet moved into the next sign. Learn more about working with void-of-course Moons here.

THE STORY SO FAR: Five planets are retrograde as August opens: Pluto (thru 9/14), Chiron (thru 11/5), Neptune (thru 11/7), Jupiter (thru 11/18) and Uranus (thru 12/5).
        August
opens in the midst of the Cardinal Climax. In a nutshell, the Cardinal Climax -- a planetary firestorm superfueled by the energies of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto -- is the most powerful astrological aspect pattern of our lifetimes! Its core theme is to release absolutely everything that has outlived its usefulness, while embracing new hope, transformation and paradigm shift.  

8/1 (Sun).  Let your creative juices flow with help from today's biquintile of the Leonine Sun and Pluto!

8/3  (Tue). The energy of the Cardinal Climax gets a kick in the pants with today's Jupiter-Pluto square! Powerful through mid-September, this is a potent catalyst for powerful new beginnings. You can also use this energy to give a new burst of energy to an existing situation. Dark side possibilities of this square include extreme violence or megalomania, so stay on the high side!

8/4 (Wed). Mars wades into the heart of the Cardinal Climax today, opposing Jupiter and squaring Pluto. This takes the opportunities and cautions described on 8/3 and kicks them up to a whole new level! This is a potentially explosive time, so exercise an appropriate level of caution. Remember, however, that it also takes a massive explosion to launch a rocket into space. The key is to have the detonation planned, controlled and properly directed. Whatever can benefit from fiery, high-octane energy – be it sex, passionate creative expression, athletics, a bold financial undertaking, or the timely destruction of something whose time has come – it won't get much hotter than this!
        Even if the sex sets off skyrockets today, it doesn't guarantee that your partner is a keeper – not with Venus quincunx Neptune, anyway. Relationship matters can be a bit fuzzy under this aspect. So unless you're getting a crystal-clear intuitive signal, postpone any important relationship decision-making if possible. However, there is a big green light for sacred sexual practice with the right person!

8/6 (Fri). Venus' quincunx to Chiron is good for refinements and adjustments in relationships, creativity and finance.
        And Venus' entry into Libra, where she'll transit thru 9/8, will push the energy of relationships and creativity more into the forefront.

8/7 (Sat). Next on Venus' social calendar is an opposition to Uranus, as she follows Mars into the heart of the Cardinal Climax. While relationships, finances and creativity may experience more volatility, the opportunity for breakthroughs, awakenings and paradigm shifts is also strong – especially if you follow your intuitive flashes!

8/8 (Sun). Got relationships? With Venus conjunct Saturn, the strong ones can get stronger foundations, while the shakier ones may well be tested to see if they're worthy of your continued time and attention.

8/9 (Mon). Venus continues her extraordinary string of aspects with an opposition to Jupiter, providing fresh hope and expansion to relationships, finance and creativity.
        The Cardinal Climax's
New Moon is, appropriately enough, in the fiery sign of Leo! It happens on the 9th at 11:08 PM (17°24' Leo). Given what's going on with Venus, new creative beginnings are especially supported. Leo New Moons are also great times for new initiatives relating to leadership or generosity.
        This New Moon's Sabian Symbol is, “A chemist conducts an experiment for his students.” This symbol beautifully reflects what a grand experiment humanity is currently engaged in, as well as the extraordinary alchemical possibilities that lie the open before us. Don't settle for just being one of the students, though: now is the time to make your entire life a grand experiment!

8/10 (Tue). Venus squares Pluto today, engaging the Lord of the Underworld's tremendous power. Be open to any needed transformation in the three Venusian life areas that you may very well have memorized by now – relationships, finance and creativity. Once that process is complete, the doors will be open for you to receive Pluto's gifts of wealth and power!
        Just when you thought there couldn't be any Venus aspects left, she pulls out a biquintile to Neptune! This radiates divinely inspired creativity and facilitates conscious union with the divine.

8/11 (Wed). Whichever of its names you choose to use – quadriform, arrowhead, Thor's Hammer or God's Fist – we've got us a strong aspect pattern today!
        I'll call it an arrowhead just to keep things simple.
        An arrowhead's stressful, dynamic energy is caused by its challenging aspects: a 90° square and two 135°sesquiquadrates. In this case, the Sun is at the tip of the arrowhead. Pluto is at one back corner, while Uranus and Jupiter occupy the other back corner.
        If the names of these slower planets sound familiar, it may be because I've talked about them so much as part of the Cardinal Climax. This means that this arrowhead provides yet more stimulation to this world-shaking aspect pattern.
        So what does a leonine Sun do when simultaneously stimulated by Pluto, Uranus and Jupiter? For starters, he gets intensely bright, and struts his creative stuff on the spotlit stage for all he's worth! Then, if he's smart, he opens himself to transformation, paradigm shift and radical expansion. But he steers clear of power trips and excessive volatility, and keeps reminding himself that whatever gifts, talents and other positive attributes he possesses flow from the divine.
        Then he can launch into the world like a blazing fire arrow, dynamically radiating his talents in a way that serves the highest need of all!

8/13 (Fri). The Cardinal Climax technically ends as Uranus retrogrades into Pisces late today, but I wouldn't count on the intense energy letting up much just yet. Continue releasing, transforming and paradigm shifting!

8/16 (Mon). Hope or despair? Joy or sorrow? Expansion or contraction? If areas of your life seem polarized between these extremes as Jupiter opposes Saturn, you may find that the first choice in each pair will serve you better. These are also the two main planets of business astrology, so be sure to look for opportunities in the world of work!

8/20 (Fri). Divinely inspired creativity is available like a flowing waterfall, thanks to a Sun-Neptune opposition and a Venus-Mars conjunction. The latter aspect may help you find new possibilities in challenged relationships as well.
        Reflect on those relationships – along with everything else of importance – during the
Mercury Retrograde period that starts on the 20th at 3:58 PM. (It lasts through 9/12 at 7:09 PM.) Mercury retrograde is always a time to be especially careful about travel, communication, technology and data. Delays and glitches in these areas may be more common than usual. Be sure to back up your critical data!

8/21 (Sat). What things, people and concepts have outlived their usefulness in your life? Voluntarily releasing them as Saturn squares Pluto may save you from having them taken away without your consent. This is also a time when business ideas with a solid foundation can be supercharged by a fresh infusion of energy and capital.
        Part of this energy may come from a consultant or advisor, whose presence is supported by a Sun-Chiron opposition.

8/23 (Mon). Are you experiencing jangling nerves, tapping foot syndrome or nervous tics? The less desirable manifestations of a Sun-Uranus quincunx can be alleviated by making adjustments to follow your intuitive flashes!
        The Sun enters Virgo today. Good timing, too: with all the intense things that have been going on this month, we'll all need some of Virgo's organizational energy and attention to detail! Helpful service, another Virgo specialty, will be appreciated by many at this time.
        Law of Attraction aficionados may find their visualizations receiving some extra sparkle, thanks to today's Saturn-Neptune biquintile. (Neptune supports visualization and imagination, while Saturn supports physical manifestation.)

8/24 (Tue). The August Full Moon peaks on the 24th at 1:04 PM (1°25' Pisces). Even more than most Piscean Full Moons, this is a time to feel how well you're able to connect with Spirit and receive the flow of creative inspiration and intuitive guidance.
        This Full Moon is intensified by aspects to all of the Cardinal Climax planets: it conjuncts Neptune, semi-sextiles Jupiter and Uranus, sextiles Pluto and quincunxes Saturn. However, since the most challenging hard angles are not represented, the energetic intensification should only be moderate.

8/26 (Thu). Step out and serve with your full primal power as the Virgoan Sun trines Pluto today.

8/28 (Sat). Relationships and finance get a boost of creative empowerment with Venus quintile Pluto.

8/31 (Tue). Physical activity and new relationship energy get a magical boost with Mars quintile Pluto.

  Special Astrology by Sexual Astrology

Upcoming Astrological Events:

June 15th - July 15th, 2010

Tuesday, June 15th - Venus trine Jupiter and Mars trine Pluto

This will be one of the luckiest days for love and sexual encounters all month! If you're in a relationship, the sexual and emotional connection you feel with your love will be intense and positive. Water and earth signs will benefit most. Friday, June 25th - Mercury enters Cancer and Sun opposed Pluto

A vital conversation in relationship matters is likely for Cancer and Capricorn but a power struggle is likely. Pisces might give or receive a love letter. Saturday, June 26th - Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn

There might be a tense ending to a relationship for Cancer or Capricorn. A difficult astrological day for all and emotions will fly high. If you're a cardinal sign - Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn - then your life will be irrevocably changed. Thursday, July 8th - Venus opposed Neptune

Leo and Aquarius will either be completely deluded by a lover or feel as if they've found the perfect soul mate. Rose colored glasses will be worn during sex - for better or worse. Friday, July 9th - Mercury enters Leo

Leo is the sign of love and romance so now, more than ever, these matters will be on everyone's mind. Aries could have a fantastic conversation with a potential new lover and Aquarius will relate to a partner on the mental plane. Saturday, July 10th - Venus enters Virgo

When the planet of love enters the most discerning sign of the zodiac, love gets critical. You might notice that you're picking up on the flaws of our partner more than usual and that they really annoy you. At the same time, if you're a Virgo or an earth or water sign matters of romance should be exceptionally positive. Just as long as your lover passes your "tests" first! Sunday, July 11th - Solar Eclipse in Cancer

A spectacular new beginning is in store for Cancer and Capricorn and it will likely involve a partner. Pisces could find romance.
