Astro Sun Sign Query Du Jour: Weddings

May 20, 2009 in Astro-Query by Mystic Medusa | 74 comments

esteelauderbeautifuledpforwomen

This astro-query ain’t about love  nor even committment – it’s about the actual wedding ceremony.  Citing your Sun/Rising/Moon or anything you think relevant, did you ever have a wedding fantasy or fetish?  Bridezilla? Do you think it is important to commerate a great love with a ritual in front of your friends & family or do you think it is a relic from the Dark Ages?  Historically the best man was there to help prevent the bride running away.

As a an Aqua Rising and even though my Venus trines Neptune (romantic), I’ve never ever had wedding day fantasies. Even though i’ve been engaged twice and married once. And Uranus (ruler of my ascdendent) is conjunct Mars and Pluto in the 8th, so i’ve always been able to think of better things to do with the $ then a dress you’d only wear once…the whole thing. And, don’t hate me for this, even when i hear amazing stories of weddings from people i like/love, i kind of tune out. Maybe i read too many feminist books at a tender age? Too many married men chasing me? But i always wanted kids & had them young and love those soppy reincarnated lovers stories. So anyway, I am betting that the Aqua influence is fairly anti-wedding, same with Gemini.  Virgoans I know always do them big and properly…Your thoughts?

NOTE: but i am brilliant at picking wedding dates! Please don’t think it biasses me…lol.

Apres The Scorping…

DUDES THIS IS ME!  After the Full Moon in Scorpio.  Okay, it’s not but I feel like the Scorpion-Phoenix thingie is sure inked on somewhere, only invisibly.

I think i deserve an award for so authentically manifesting that Full Moon in Scorpio…It’s always a goodie but i did this one like an astrological textbook. Scorpio energy is sex, death, the occult & areas of life that are super-powerful but usually kept hidden. It’s also endings, beginnings & the metaphysical idea of Phoenixing & that death is but a night between two days. And it’s the guts to not only survive a hideous little something, but thrive. Many a mystery.

So my Friday afternoon (eve of the Full Moon, last night before it was actually exact) starts out tres innocently. Going to see the Piscean Beauty Fanatic before meeting the Leo-Rising-Rugger-Stud for dinner…Only HE had infuriated me earlier in the week by rocking up sans notice & when i trying to analyze someone’s Uranian transits & basically putting it upon me. Not until the Full Moon in Scorp did i realise how angry i was about it. THAT is so Scorp & Pluto…When you are sitting there having a manicure or something and suddenly it’s like ’shit, that was wrong & I’m right’ kinda feeling.

Anyway, the taxi driver I got was an Aries and SO angry that I had to ask the Piscean Beauty Fanatic for Emergency Reiki. Luckily, she is very good it and she whacked in some other stuff as well. Deep witchery & re-aligning the subtle etheric bodies sort of thing. So feeling heaps better we then discuss Scorp subjects – not on purpose. We just suddenly realised that we were talking about terminations, prostitution & hymen restoration. As she’d gone to the hairdresser that day and suddenly realising that the teenage apprentice doing her hair was hitting on her for validation & guilt release over an operation she just had. Then this poor girl started asking about hymen restoration operations and/or opportunities to ‘work’. So…a very Scorpy chat from that.

As I was saying bye to the Piscean Beauty Fanatic, I start getting urgent texts from Leo-Rising-Rugger-Stud to the tune of “where are you?” and strident question marks…Each time i try to call him, he engaged calling me. So I finally get hold of him & it’s part Retro-Mercury/part him being a prick as in he hadn’t listened when i said that i would not be at my house at whatever time. Then i said well, I am going to meet the Scorpio Sex Academic as she just bk from Bali & has interesting tales to tell – come along or i can meet you in an hour. He hit the roof & sulked bigtime, so it ended.

Then I met the Scorpio Sex Academic &  i told her about the Leo-Rising-Rugger-Stud & she airily referred to it as an “uncluttering” but then said what about the Uranian – my other Aquarian? I said that I’d made a scene at the gym as he talking to some floozie that he may have (?) been seeing last year when i was seeing just him but that a bonkers blind date had sent me stampeding bk into the arms of the Uranian. It turns out that Scorpio Sex Academic KNEW of the Floozie & was able to text a Virgo Sexual Assualt Counsellor friend who knew EVERYTHING I would ever need to know AND was lovely AND she arrived in 15 minutes to brief me. How often do you get the info you need so quickly & with such heavenly synchronicity? And then of course the conversation dived real deep. The Scorpio Sex Academic had done ten days of Kundalini Yoga in a row so was (a) chanelling and (b) longing for several litres of chardonnay.

Sitting at this bar with the Full Moon shining down being briefed by my spy made me feel like Lucretia Borgia – it was excellent but the whole thing felt super crisp, clear & lucid. It was a combination of intrigue, confessional deep dialogue, dramatic endings & the metaphysical end of spirituality where it’s all about qi & energy.

My question; Is this how Scorpios exist ALL the time? And did anyone else have a similar Full Moon in Scorp?  Oh and I dumped the Uranian too. And ended the evening talking to a 55 year old punk-rocker and his Goth son. My phone broke so could not text the U – which is a lovely little blessing from Merc Retro…

UPDATE: AND – i forgot to mention another Scorp theme of that night – the eve of the Full Moon – We ran into an Aries Hypnotherapist acquaintance of mine who was about to meet her RSVP date for the night, a Gemini psychologist. So this poor guy arrives to find his blind date totally crashed by a bunch of women in deep convo mode.

Venusian Weirding Infinity

April 30, 2009 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 70 comments

Venus has been basically gliding back and forth over the same ground since late January & won’t get past the degree of Aries where she went retrograde until May 17, the same day that Saturn goes Direct & right before the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding of late May.

In between now and May 5 the Love Goddess both squares Pluto (cathartic, v.hard to cling onto non-authentic things ‘just because’, passionate) and sextiles the Dragon’s Head. I love calling it that. Nowadays it’s the Moon’s North Node. Anyway, it’s a point of fate. Lots of things that have been trying to happen all year (whether joinings or partings) happen over this time & that’s without even taking into account all the fixed squares from Taurus to Aquarius…also a status-quo buster.

And, lol, there is a Full Moon in Scorpio amidst all this…on May 9 – the 8th if you are in the USA. Sooo profound that i need new synonyms for cathartic.

Snoopy, Samhain & Libran Men

So how did a post re Samhain (guys, please do honour ye olde Pagan days even just a little bit!) and Snoopy turn into a Libran men thing? Oh that’s right – Snoopy is officially a Libran and all. I just don’t think Libran guys do all that fantasy and whimsy stuff that Snoopy does. He must have a helluva lot of Aquarius or even Pisces going on there. I mean, he is Mercurial, if not Uranian. His best friend is a bird, he consistently fantasises about a variety of scenarios such as him being a fighter pilot/Joe Cool and like everyone in Peanuts, enjoys a spot of unrequited love. He does like to lead expeditions into the woods and annoy the highly Scorpionic Lucy. So maybe a bit of strong Sagg there…

As for Libran men – they’re blessed with the reputation of being the smoothie seducers of the Zodiac & their charm – should they want to unleash it, is legendary. I met a Libran celebrity the other day & though i knew it was a super-buffed official charm, it was still so memorable and effective. The ones i know are players but not mean spirited nor ever coarse about it. They’re troubadors. Smart, take-anywhere with amazing taste.

Ruled by Venus & thus usually v.easy on the eye, about to have Saturn come through their sign to streamline a few illusions…I mean, really, what’s not to like about Libran men?

Venusian Voodoo & The Pluto Square

April 28, 2009 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 25 comments

Any moment now (okay, exact on Saturday but building now) it is the third of three Venus-Pluto squares in a row. Friday – the Day Of Venus is when it’s most full-on so happy love weirding. Venus in cathartic aspect to Pluto is hot & deep, ultra-fated. But watch for manipulation and led by  your er, genitals.

Eg; You could find or think you have found some sort of blissful Twin Soul scene;

soulmates

But your tantric juju is actually way more equivalent to THIS;

mainMary Reeves Uhles

So watch the old coercive, seductive manipulative hi-jinx – whether you are likely to be the instigator, gimp or whacko blend of both. Do not get sucked back into a toxic old-old-old dynamic, even if it is ever so karmic i.y.o. Think: Fresh Paradigm.

D.I.Y Astro – His (Hetero) Venus

April 21, 2009 in D.I.Y. Astro, Planets by Mystic Medusa | 141 comments

daisy-duck-valentines1You can tell a lot about a het bloke from his Venus. Or HER Venus if she be gay. It’s what he fancies. And of course there is the Moon as well, but that’s more like the Mother, what he feels comfie with. If you want to analyze his pure lust/falling-for quotient check out the Venus; the sign & the house + any aspects but stick within a few degrees of exactitude or else you went send yourself bats.

It’s eerily accurate. For example, a guy has (say) Venus in Saggo. Rock up tanned & with some top you got at a market in Thingistani. Wear turquoise beads. Be fidgety. Get emo about how important the separation of Church & State is to you. Say you’re actually really bummed out because your snowboard hasn’t been fixed yet. Putty in your hands. Of course if he has his Venus in Saggo square Pluto than you also casually mention that your last relationship broke up because he wasn’t kinky enough. Trine Saturn? You cut your last trip short to come back and do some bush regeneration volunteer work that also helped you get in some networking with Blah-Corp.

Venus in friendly aspect to the Moon means there is not any conflict between women he feels aroused by and those he feels relaxed with. When they square, it’s tricky. eg; I know a Taurus with a Kataka Venus who has the most hyperbolic nesting and canny security conscious partner ever but he’s got Moon in Sagg, plays up when away on the old-fash grounds that it does not count when in a motel.

My teenage son has Venus + Moon in Virgo & has always liked girls who are what he calls “nimble” as well as “fastidious” and he will fall out of love/lust at warp speed if there is even one symptom of thickness such as a malaprop or mispronounciation. Ramzilla-Ex has Moon in Aquarius trine Venus in Gemini so brilliant at giving women their space & respecting/supporting their individuation but would withdraw as if facing kryptonite at the hint of any emo.

As an experiment, try it – channel an over the top version of your lover’s Venus for just six hours. And see what happens. Don’t blame it backfires. If he (or she) has Venus in Aries, boast about your bench presses and delivery awesomely up yourself but quite motivating pep talks. Venus in Capricorn – wear a fantastic watch, be thin & flat haired with a regal degree of empowerment on display.  As my Aquarians both have Venus in Aquarius they respond brilliantly if i am seemingly off-planet. They like evidence of other-worldly or futuristic behaviour. eg; Sorry I didn’t return your call. I was levitating. Or I was tending my Deadly Nightshade plantation and forgot your name.

Venus in Leo; be loud, big-haired & issue huge theatrical laughs a lot with your head thrown back. Be constantly on the alert for an opportunity to crack open the champers, dress up and/or listen to live music. Emote at length about  your fave film directors. Throw some mirrors into the bedroom quick-smart and fuq the Feng Shui. Have teeth that you can see from SPACE. A scent that can be detected by anyone with an olofactory nerve who comes within 200 metres.

Are you guys getting the idea????

Astro-Mel Gibson

April 14, 2009 in Astro-Fiends, Astro-Passages, Celeb Fluffery by Mystic Medusa | 25 comments

So, His Holy Hotness is getting a divorce. I used to totally adore him but went off HHH sometime around What Women Want , that religious movie, his hideous anti-gay/anti-sem rant when arrested driving drunk but whilst trying to find a suitable image to illo this post on Astro-Mel, i began to like  him all over again.

BTW: Speaking of Gibson’s artistic cred, has anyone SEEN Apocalypto? I wanted to see it for all the mythical themes but was put off by hearing it apparently horrendously gory. Like the Christ movie he made.

His astro-deets are interesting…Capricorn Sun with Kataka rising (those goo-goo eyes) & Moon in Libra. His Moon is natally square his Sun and Pluto is now squaring the Moon, before moving onto the Sun in a few years. So it’s catharthis central chez Mel, especially so far as it relates to women. He’d feel like he HAS to be real emotionally, authentic & all. Some say the dipsomania over the years a mask for gayness but there is currently a “mystery brunette” (female) being cited in various media.

Pluto is also right now trining his Jupiter in Virgo. This whole thing is going to somehow wind up being very good for him. He’s got a super-determined & success-driven Mars-Saturn in Scorpio but it has been dissipated a bit by Neptune in the last few years. Neptune transits can be religion, psychic awareness, haute art etc. Or…The internets full of pix of a recent-Mel boozing it up in what look like suburban bars all over the place. And I’d rather post pix of His Holy Hotness in full heat mode than his ghastly mug shot.

Finally, Uranus is moving up to his Midheaven; there this year and next. Career genius or the potential of it and a radically reinvented  public image. Note that the Saturn-Uranus opposition was across his IC-MC axis and at the same time that Pluto squaring that make-nice/put up with crap for the sake of official harmony Libran Moon. Cancerian/Kataka Rising & Cap Sun would not want to break up the family either.  So…what Uranian genius will His Holy Hotness come up with? Uranus on the Midheaven does not equate well to religious bigotry nor closetted ANYTHING.

Four More Days Till Venus Direct

April 14, 2009 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 20 comments

logicsystem-venus

Four  more days until Venus Direct & so you have about 93 hours left in which to get a grip on your romantic past, ex-lovers et al & then graciously face the future. One could quibble and say that the future  only REALLY has to be faced once Venus is out of Shadowzone – ie; back to the point at which she went retrograde – in late May.  And definitely expect a few random manifestations of news/info/insights re past relationships till then but for practical purposes, the fast-forward starts this weekend. Around the exact moment of Venus Direct is also a fantastic time to do some sort of a ‘banishing’ ritual if you feel like it. The Daily Mystic will have all the times for the diff timezones. Venus Direct can also mean that those annoying sort of half-on/half-off not really sure what it is love affairs either elegantly implode or get some actual substance to them.

Venus Is STILL Square Pluto

YES! Venus in Aries (retrograde) is STILL square Pluto…The exactitude of it has passed but it lingers on, courtesy of other astro-crap causing a sort of extended play. Till May.

See the Pic!  She’s on a pedastel! Not yet ready nor even wanting to fling ‘the weapon’ – seduce/pounce/move/change. The Plutonic dude behind her is totally pause for thought…As it ought to be in the middle of the Venus-Retro cycle. Likewise, you pause as well – to grok the mega-deep insights that arise through emo that at first seems quite shallow and beneath you. Yes, it’s beneath you – it’s from your subconscious…At least jot some of the insights/angst down. They WILL be pertinent.
