Saturn has got just ten more days in Virgo to go and for the Mutable signs, it’s a bit like the above picture. YES! Re-emergence is us.

However, though Saturn is Exalted in Libra (ie: functions better than in Virgo) it’s still Saturn and there are lessons to be learned, certain cautions to be suavely observed for the sake of success and serenity amidst challenging times.

So, if you don’t already have Saturnalia (your guide to Saturn in Libra, sign by sign and with all the relevant dates, do check it out here.

If you have it, may I politely suggest a quick re-read?

This is from an exhibition at the World Crafts Council in Belgium called Lingam: 121 Contemporary Fertility Symbols.

I have never seen so much crocheted filth in my life. Nor playdough dildoes.

Anyway, stating your Sun Sign, please provide your arty analysis of the installation above or just free-riff on lingams, Belgians, whatever.

The Moon is Void in Libra before it goes into Scorp ( I will post when THAT happens) and so it’s kind of the done thing to be a bit tangential and indecisive only we call it Zen Noire.

And any relationship whim during this Moon Void? It ain’t worth honouring. You’ll just want to hara-kiri your brain when the Moon gets into Scorpio and you’re suddenly in ruthless-phoenix mode.

How many Geminis does it take to change a lightbulb?

  • Two. Plus a portable phone, an internet link, and a copy of the “Bluffer’s Guide to Changing Lightbulbs.”
  • Two (of course) but it will take all week, and when they’re done the lightbulb will do your homework, speak French, and shine any color you want it to.
  • Two, but they never change it – they just keep arguing about who is supposed to do it and how it’s supposed to be done.

Capricorn as Sea-Goat and not mere Goat is such an ancient idea.

I went bats over this several years ago and kept reading up on why…it’s totally esoteric. To do with Capricorn also been ruled by maybe Neptune…as its “esoteric ruler” and Capricorn as representing the symbolic gateway to otherworlds.

So Capricorn is actually an insanely dual sign – way more so than our Sagg even: Capricorn is half lewd Pan/Dionysus figure all nympho and with devilish cloven hooves,  half earthly-desired imbued goat striving to the top of any mountain and half magical Sea-Monster.  Okay, more than dual. I stopped Maths at long division.

Some say the Sea Goat symbology has to with Mesopotamian Creator Gods – you can see why peeps go crazy researching this.

I ended up concluding that Capricorns have powerful magic – a bit of Pisces/Neptune in there to modify their rulership by stern Saturn, oft difficult childhood and all those long hours they put in mastering themselves/their trade or whatever. I think magic comes out with Caps at Uranus Opposition…in the early 40s.

Caps? Cap lovers? Thoughts?

The Anybot

When Uranus gets into Aries properly, I would like to think the government will give  us all an Anybot. Think  of how ECO it is. Here is how it works. You sit at home and the Anybot can be anywhere in the world. You log into it, those little eyes whir into life -  hopefully not red and scanning for peeps blood type or whether or not they are Terminators – and then you can see around the room where the Anybot is and conduct conversations or even negotiations.

I like that you could be sitting at home in  your nightie with a face masque on eating jelly snakes and just send the Anybot out online dating. Imagine all the travel costs that would be saved. They’re about $15,000 each.

Oh and speaking of trends, they’re saying that menstrual blood is rich in stem cells and could even be “harvested.”

Welcome to Uranus in Aries peeps!!   And who wants an Anybot?

Robin Hood just MUST be a Saggo…It’s not just the Archer symbology – it’s the whole way the legend has evolved – he’s debonair, cheeky, gallops around thieving but re-working it so that he’s actually an altruist. Maybe he’s a Gemini?

Robin Hood is like King Arthur in that they are such strong icons but there is v.little to place them historically…So you can be as camp, esoteric or serious as you like. I’m not sure about the latest Robin Hood – i think it needs men in tights, mead and wenches.

But, my god, do you think “The World’s Greatest Actor” coverline was a condition of this interview? I betcha it was. RC is a multiple conjunct Aries; Sun-Mars-Jupiter. Awesome for success-drive, focus, intensity of vision and an impervious, rock-of-Gibralter type ego…He should do a really haute concept sci-fi next. Moon in Aquarius? He’s out there.

Right, well I don’t have much to say about the footie and the World Cup BUT here are a few quick astrological tidbits.

* Didier Drogba, on the left, is a Pisces and Cristian Ronaldo is an Aquarius. FYI.

* Fitness – as in loads and loads of training + eating right – clearly works.

* I am obviously going for the Socceroos to win but will also be avidly following France as their coach, Raymond Domenech is also an astrologer. This is the end of his career and last chance. He has been hugely reviled for refusing to have Scorpios or Leos on his team, using Tarot to make decisions and his link with a Seventies porn star. He’s an Aquarius and he apparently gets booed by the French fans at EVERY match. So, well, yes it will be interesting to see how France go.

* There is a major eclipse right in the middle of the World Cup in South Africa…I would like to think of this as a sensational upset win by an under-dog sort of thing as opposed to an actual upset. It’s a Full Moon Eclipse squared by Uranus, Jupiter and Pluto…zap zone: June 23 to 30…But exact on June 26.

So Naomi Watts AND Michelle Williams are shooting Marilyn movies in 2011...So interesting that it is Marilyn Monroe’s Uranus Return right now. Yes, there have been heaps of biopics before but not with stars of this calibre, no?

I thought Naomi would be hopeless at first – she vibes so Libran, a bit Gwyneth, macrobiotic and Pilates-bummed BUT remember her turn in Mulholland Drive?  Super-Marilyn & brilliant manifestation of her Saturn-Sun transit.

Then again Michelle Williams is always so moving (Brokeback Mountain) + think of the personal life material she has to draw upon. And her North Node is conjunct MM’s Neptune in Leo. So there is a spiritual link between the two women for sure. She’s a multiple Virgo and you can just imagine how awful the past few years have been for her, with Saturn trouncing all over half her chart.

Thoughts?

This Multiple Leo (Mercury/Sun/Uranus) Antonio Banderas busy doing promo for his new scent The Secret.

It’s a worry that he seems to have lost his Leonic gleam for the moment. This pic looks like a sleazy voyeur nonchalant enough to be casually taking a pic of the spied upon chick with his mobile phone.  It’s actually the bottle of his juice – dark and heavy with a keyhole design.

It’s actually his seventh fragrance…A previous one Diavolo (Italian for devil) has the blurb that “It is the most intense aspect of my seductive side, Diavolo For Men will seduce you and so will you.”  I think that is meant to mean that, short of the presence of Mr Banderas himself, it is the ultimate leg-opener.

Anyway, he is making a spectacular comeback (Leos specialise in spectacular comebacks) on Broadway as Zorba in Zorba The Greek AND he’s got his Moon at Six degrees of Aries so he’s up for some snazzy evolutions in his personal life…

Aether (also Æthere, Greek: ?????), in Greek mythology, is one of the Protogenoi, the first-born elemental gods. He is the personification of the upper sky, space, and heaven, and is the elemental god of the “Bright, Glowing, Upper Air.” He is the pure upper air that the gods breathe, as opposed to the normal air (???, aer) mortals breathe.
