Great Demons, reading an in-box full of grizzling with a crook neck ain’t easy.

I never said Mars Direct would deliver you your rose garden, studly soulmate, hand-crafted box with a million $$$ cash inside it and holy secret of enlightenment.

Noooo. But DO admit that there was some sort of shift last week, when Mars moved. I felt it. My neck felt it. And just watch how quickly things gather momentum as Mars picks up speed.

General notes on Mars in Leo: It’s a show-offy vibe. So if you’re making new plans, you don’t bother keeping them secret. You tell the world. Or if there is a good reason to keep them secret, you luridly relay all to your confidantes/court sychophants or you pace luridly about in a suitably Leonic scheming gown…

Things are happening, things are moving…rather than fretting up into such a frenzy that you wig out, do the oh-my-goddings great insights thing with the New Moon coming & compulsively groom your way out of any funk. And besides, Mars is not only still moving quite slowly – albeit forward – it’s Mars in LEO….Being sextiled by Saturn.

Do Leos move fast? Or do they take a long time to get ready? Does Saturn slow things down or speed them up? Things are happening, they will soon speed up and you’d better be ready! April is quite the ride.

Saturn, my new life coach, has now seen to it that i have given up coffee – often intended and sort of tried but now essential as coffee apparently spazzes out Saturn Neck to a ludicrous degree.  So, no coffee. And no lurking around eating chips, drinking wine and discussing Jung either. Too many painkillers in system.

I am thinking that the point is to do the Saturn bit right (i should have had a proper chair for sitting at my desk typing but thought that a bit beneath me but now realize, thanks to the life coach, that it is GOOD to honour oneself and one’s work with a proper chair) and then you get to the cooler Uranus bit.

Yes, the Saturn-Uranus opposition is biting. It’s not exact until the end of April but I am calling it now.

The ideal: Uranian energy blasts away at frozen, Saturnine Status-Quo…Uranus vibes always come in sudden oh-my-godding moments of three…Saturnine energy creates a better base for the genius to thrive…Lots of change and endings all around – some exciting new beginnings too.

And THANK YOU For all the beautiful comments and posts re my Saturn Neck!  I hate whinging but it was such a help to read them all, truly…

“It’s his heart I want! All those little girls with no education will not take it from me. I would not be so calm if I saw some pretty woman of the court or the capital trying to conquer it.”

Venus is in Aries, the sign of Mars and with Mars flamboyantly out of action.

How does Venus go in Aries?

Well, respect is a big deal, of course & the reading material is less likely to be some self-help book and more likely Sun Tzu’s Art Of War…especially Part Three: Attack By Stratagem.

Venus in Aries is the iron fist in the velvet glove, every single trick in the book employed to bring about the fulfilment of her desires & you are either with her or else you are against her.

Beauty-wise, Venus in Aries is about the power of the overtly sexual image. Nothing subtle. The strategy is shock and awe.  In settled relationships where a woman is not getting that much attention, Venus in Aries wreaks havoc. There is a need for not so much attention as worship.

High maintenance? You betcha. And it’s until the end of March which is when Venus will move on to plough the more tranquil fields of Taurus.


The Saggo Moon has but one message of the moment…

Fuq Sloth. Get out and do something. Anything. Or go bats. Especially with Mars right at the arse end of his Retro in Leo. Enough with the navel gazing, secret flake outs and seethingly intense “planning.”

Move. One foot in front of the other. Exercise. Dancing. Crapping away in a bar so long as you can move around and don’t have to talk to one person for more than ten minutes at a time. Just move.

Plenty of time to worry about biz when the Moon is in Capricorn early next week AND Mars goes Direct AND Saturn starts to really oppose Uranus already.

Realism in relationships? That’s taken care of too…Venus will oppose Saturn. But for now? Venus in Aries trines Mars in Leo and the Moon is in Sagg. Move.

Ladies, with Venus Conjunct Uranus, women are at their most alluring when weirding in and out.

Stay spacey.  Besides, Venus-Uranus is a zap of romantic/artistic action but Mars IS still Retrograde.

So just be zippy & Uranian – a little bit off-planet, doing thy own thing – you can show off credentials, intent, your feelings and/or successes next week when Venus aspects, sigh, Saturn.

For now & tomorrow, sci-fi is the new etiquette of dating & related enterprises.

Art & Ghosts

When the Moon moves into Libra and starts to conjoin Saturn/square Pluto,  one naturally thinks of one’s secrets. But because it’s a Libran Moon, they can seem quite elegant, more like delicious surreal things to be weirdly cherished…Still intense though.

When Venus meets up with Uranus (the Goddess of Love with the God of Divine Chaos) an interesting time can ensue. Venus is nearly there right now. This aspect perfects by Thursday evening but permeates the whole week, regardless of your timezone. Venus-Uranus can bring relationships quickly into being and they can shatter apart just as quickly.

People want electrifying connection & haute meeting of minds, not dullard obligations. Things that have been tolerated for months suddenly become intolerable. Strange attractions flare up. Interestingly, Venus opposes Saturn next week so that is like the opposite to this Venus-Uranian energy. It’s by next week (that quickly!) that you’ll see how viable a relationship or prospective little fling is.

This week? Love is weird but hopefully in a good way and you can’t really do a single thing to control it. In fact, attempting to control Venus-Uranian energy is a guaranteed flop. What you can expect? Interesting courtships, artistic zing, the urge for a more unique look, love of unusual art/music/decor, the re-entry of a.w.o.l. suitors (though Mars Retrograde ameloriates this to a certain extent) and fascinating new flirtations or more sparking up.

Venus rules beauty. The most popular look du jour would be something alternative dimensional…You know, alien but not green or with tentacles. Other worldly and non-controlling. Venus-Uranus can also be sudden reversals in romance. Also, this is Venus-Uranus conjunction is followed by Venus in aspect to Saturn, Mars and then Pluto…all in the next 12 days…Fun. Action.

Yes, it’s true that the Sun-Jupiter Conjunction is lucky-lucky-lucky.  Auspicious as stink. But you know what? A Full Moon in Virgo is a Full Moon in Virgo & the vibe is such that one could go flippo over the deets. And then swing back to the Jupiter-Sun Piscean end of things self-medicate in a Dionysian fashion.

I mean, i just had a taxi trip in which i experienced homicidal urges.  Extremely rare for me. Seriously. And thankfully fleeting. I would never have acted on them. And i swear they only lasted for a nano-sek. Still. Imagine a taxi trip in which you have already walked for forty minutes having been unable to find a taxi, the guy is smelly, asks personal questions in a loud whine, goes the wrong way, stops to get petrol, gets pulled over by the police, boasts about his non-existent street knowledge and enquires as to your sexual availability.

So I had to do do a massive ‘all is well in your loving world’ style mantra to stop the Virgoan Within going absolutely ape. Oh and because this character had gone the wrong way and I complained, he threatened to drop me off in an amazingly rough bit of town. But all is well in our loving world, the Sun really is moving closer to Jupiter & a lucky break of some sort of another is nigh.

Just try to avoid Virgo-ing out about the deets: Tardiness, punctuation, filth, lack of follow-through, accents & vermin are all classic Virgo flashpoints.  Oh and Mars is right at the ratty end of his Retrograde on a Full Moon – so that’s good for a titanic temper tantrum. Please promise yourself now that you will ignore any temptation to “bring things to a head” or “just see where you stand…”

Venus-Uranus next week will be perfectly cathartic on its own. You won’t do a thing…Well, don’t do a thing right now…

Bugs Bunny, Officially a Leo.

This one is FUN. As always with D.I.Y. Astro, you can whiz off to Astrodienst to generate a chart & check this out.

The house where you have LEO, ladies & gentleman, is where you have to shine, get trophies, be up yourself and have almost a teenagie & egomaniacal lust for life & sensation. It’s where you – DO admit – like a bit of drama & cannot bear things to be tatty nor naff. It’s your sector of bling & mirrors where, actually, it IS a bit of a performance but so what?!

Life is not allowed to be humdrum in the House of Hubris, soz, Leo & it’s also where you thrive on expressing a creative & playful attitude to the whole thing. Anyone attempting to guilt you in areas that pertain to the House of Love awakens your ire, turning you into a minotaur-style tower of outrage. You can’t dress down in the House of Leo. Shine or Abdicate.

Some examples; 7th House Leo goes for looks-looks-looks when it comes to partners & they’ll worry about the sanity etc later. 10th house Leo is a genius at self-promo & come alive when they’re on the telly. Has billboard fantasies. 3rd House Leo rehearses anecdotes & attempts to bignote siblings. 9th house Leo is ostenatatious traveller with “proper” luggage…never baggage. 8th House Leo – a PORN star?

And, this is heaven, whilst you’re figuring out your House of Hubris/Leo, note that action-planet Mars is going to be stimulating it non-stop from October 09 to June 2010….Eight months of egomanically fuelled passion & creation.

Martian Bats Confidential is now up – It is a sign by sign rave re how to max out the benefits of Mars in Leo for these eight months.
