Saggo Moon: Fuq Sloth

March 6, 2010 in Moons by Mystic Medusa | 18 comments

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.

Monthly Flying Stars 6th March – 4th April

Monthly energies can be a trigger that may lead to an increase in certain types of experiences. If you spend long periods of time in an area such as working, sleeping or your entrance is located in a particular sector have a look below and see if you experience any of the issues mentioned below.  If so you may want to try a remedy and see if that helps to harmonise things. Also just thought I’d mention that those who are born in the year of the monkey may be able to breathe a sigh of relief now February is over – it was definitely a challenging one!

EAST – The monthly energy is great as it represents fame and $$$$ and coupled with the annual energy of 2010 it is great. If your office or front entrance is located in this area you may find more opportunities to make money coming your way this month so take advantage of them.

SOUTH EAST – Success and promotion are signals of the monthly energy residing in the South East however combined with the annual energy of 2010 it can signify fire hazard – so just be extra cautious if your kitchen is located here. It can also trigger some flirtation so you may be in some luck if your bedroom is located in the South east!

SOUTH – This month the most challenging energy flies into the South and coupled with the annual energy of 2010 can indicate money problems. You can place a metal wind chime in the South to help harmonise the energy or some metal bells on a door in this sector.

SOUTH WEST – If you have a dining room or kitchen in the South west be careful of food poisoning, digestive and/or bowl problems. You may also problems with the mouth which could manifest as ulcers, teeth problems OR it could be communication problems. You should already have your wind chime up for the annual energy – not a great space to spend time in.

WEST – This combo can indicate moving away – so if you have a teenager’s bedroom in this area they may start contemplating moving out! It also signifies an increased risk of conflicts and arguments……maybe over the moving out thing? You say go, they say no LOL.

NORTH WEST – If you spend a lot of time in the North west or your front entrance is here, be careful of saying foolish things, think before you speak! The visiting energy also signifies sickness so would be worthwhile placing a calabash or six Chinese coins tied with red in this area.

NORTH – Quite neutral energies here so it is extra, extra important that you keep this area both inside and outside the house beautiful and free of clutter, otherwise you may find you experience problems with authorities such as a parking fine.

NORTH EAST – The annual sickness energy is here so you should have placed a calabash or six Chinese coins tied with red in this sector for the entire year. The monthly energy can trigger problems between the dominant female of the house and the mother in law! This could then lead to relationship problems so de-clutter this area, especially if in the bedroom!

Important Note: These are monthly Feng Shui energies & this is general Feng Shui advice, without – obviously – taking into account your unique living situation.  Ideally, one has one’s house’s base Feng Shui done first.

The Chariot

March 5, 2010 in Metaphysical Quirks by Mystic Medusa | 21 comments

The Chariot is one of my favourite Tarot cards.

Whenever it comes up, it means that you’re moving on, making speedy progress and doing it in style, with relative ease. I love it when it pops up in my Flash Tarot readings because though it’s a card of change, it always feels sort of luxurious, dignified & right. Plus the Chariot tends to manifest quickly…Like trudging around a wet roadside, no means of transport outta there & suddenly – voomp – there is the Chariot, a speedy, luxurious and relatively easy means out of the swamp-like place. Depending on the cards around it, it can also indicate that something suddenly picks up and moves along more quickly than you would otherwise expect. A promotion, the deepening of a bond, your business…It’s got loads more esoteric meanings too…

The Full Moon…in Aries

Kim+Richardson+birdseyeKim Richardson

Sunday is a Full Moon in action-Aries so it’s opposing the Sun in Libra, always a fun one for Aries style Respect issues to erupt. And it being in the signs of Venus (Libra) and Mars (Aries) opposing makes it sexy but hell on crap couples. Mercury is aligned with Saturn and Uranus with Juno – it’s like the Alphabet Vs The Goddess a la below! Or Elmer-Fudd consciousness v.s. Bugs Bunny Harebrained Trickster energy. Could be loads of fun polarised flirting and debate, so long as you haven’t got issues stewing beneath your serenity smirk.

Juno is the Queen of Heaven, Uranus is like Prometheus. Mercury is back on Saturn for the third time in a row, due to that retrograde. Messages you didn’t quite grok over the last few weeks are re-sent. Someone, you may realize, ain’t going to budge from whom he/she is. Be practical and energy conserving + observant of details (Mercury Saturn) to get more quickly to the Uranian-Juno blessings. And remember: couples in trouble find this a hard Moon. Hi-Qi peeps out for a good time may enjoy the heightened sexual tensions.

I LOVE the pic above. Raven mythology is sensational. Shall do an extended rave re it one day. O.m.g. the word ‘rave’ come from the olde English ‘raven’ – meaning to dream and wander. Ravens are SO magic.

People do love to hark at themes of violence & earthquakes when Mars squares Uranus & it’s true that it’s NOT a good time to be reckless, provoke angry or insane types nor indulge batty impulses…To be true, it is associated with civil  unrest & strange news events.

wileecoyote

But the positive side of this is that it is ENORMOUSLY creative & emancipating – give and take s-loads of space to do what thou wilt. If you are actively trying to work with the Saturn-Uranus opposition (next swipe of it is mid-Sept) then Mars-Uranus can be a good antidote to Saturn in Virgo. Administrivia MAY send you mental (more mental than Saturn in Virgo has already sent you) but you can come up with genius new solutions to free up more time/money/space/sanity for yourself IF you obey the basic warnings for Mars-Uranus a la above.

Go with your hare-brained ideas & where I am it feels like SPRING. I don’t care if it’s unseasonal, early or even caused by a sinister weather pattern – there is warmth, sunshine & a jasmine infused breeze wafting in my window…heaven…

Note: Mars is the action planet, warlord and god of aggression but lover of Venus. Mars is libido, ambition, energy, Qi & maybe anger. Uranus is more like the mythological Prometheus than the Uranus of legend. Long story as to how THAT came to be. But think Prometheus who stole Fire from the gods to give to humans. Think radical inspiration and a liberated mind. A square is a challenge or potential clash. So hothead Mars challenging Uranus-Prometheus need not be bad at all – but you FEEL where you’re constricted & Mars is always one for an escape bid. That Saturn is involved too is the bind…You have to diligently create a new set-up and/or obey some form of convention…

What’s awesome about this; It’s in mutable signs so fast chance is possible, great if you’re initiating it.  Lol i meant to type ‘change’ where i just typed ‘chance’ but i like the sound of ‘fast chance’ so will leave in my Freudian.

Uranian Weirding

wile-e-coyote-supergenius1

As mentioned in the Scopes & Daily Mystic, certain types of control-freaky people are bound to irk this week. It’s to do with good old fixed squares from Venus in Taurus to the stuff in Aquarius.

And then Mars tromps along next week and does the same thing. All during Eclipse Season and as Uranus stations Retro. It is the latter that’s the most likely to inspire a potentially bats-but-not-in-a-good-way impulse.

So should  you suddenly think YES & be on the blower to Acme a la Wile E Coyote, think again please. Wait out the Eclipse Season. That’s till July 22. Or at least till Mars skips into Gemini on July 12.

Ye Olde Astro F.Y.I.

The seven planets with their associated symbols, within the four winds. 15th century astrological woodcut.

“Astrological forecasts fortified conspirators, heightened their courage and so made them more likely to succeed in their plots. Thus laws making it a statutory felony to calculate the life expectancy of a ruling monarch had to be enforced. Astrologer John Gadbury confessed that he was ask to cast Charles II’s horoscope as part of a plot to murder the king, but denied any wrong doing…

“Authorities were not fully convinced of his innocence. His report that the comet of 1521 presaged Henry VIII’s condemnation of the papacy and his prophecy of an “eternal settlement in England of the Romanists” helped to fuel allegations of his role in Catholic conspiracies and won him two trips to prison. Astrological politicing from the bottom up could be dangerous….

“There also was astrological politicing from the top down. In addition to trying to keep the prognosticative activities of dissident groups in check, the ruling powers were interested in astrology and cometary portents as tools they could themselves use for good government. Niccolo Machiavelli (1469 to 1527) observed “Whence it comes, I know not, but both ancient and modern instances prove that no great events ever occur in any city or country that have not been predicted by soothsayers, revelations or by portents and other celestial signs.”

Atlas Shrugged

March 15, 2009 in Astro In Books, Astro-Fiends, Astro-Women by Mystic Medusa | 7 comments

atlasshrugged2

So, sales of Atlas Shrugged are apparently trending upwards. As you know if you’d read the thing – or could glean from the Wiki, it’s an amazingly dense book. It sold stupendously well in its day and created shitloads of controversy. Even now, the Amazon reviews thread of it gets heated and bitchy real fast. Okay, I am not quite sure why the G.F.C. would send peeps stampeding out to buy a book that spruiks uber-capitalism and this is so damned hard to read – it’s not like it’s a handy guide or anything.

I was given Atlas Shrugged by the Gemini Cokehead best friend of my then boyfriend years ago, when i was (sort of) at uni. Gemini Cokehead was a shocker. He was 22 in sales selling radio ad space and would do anything to keep the lease payments up on his Italian sports car. He had a penchant for falling flamboyantly in love (unable to eat, going on long mountain hikes to try and forget her, non-stop analysis of the situation, compulsive throwing of the I-Ching) with other men’s girlfriends or wives but losing interest the moment they came on the market. Anyway, Gemini Cokehead said Atlas Shrugged was like his bible and that i had to read it.

Maybe i was too young but i thought the concepts of Objectivism and letting genius run free unfettered by idiots was all really fascinating but it gets to a really psycho bit – i think – at the end where the heroine is sort of in heaven (?) and this amazing uber-capitalist-genius-stud-Nietzsche guy called John Galt has got her sweeping floors. That totally weirded me out.

Ayn Rand herself has really fascinating astro: She was a refugee from Russia, loved America the moment she spotted the New York skyline and when she was buried, her coffin had a big dollar sign on it. And she was classic Aquarius – contradictory. She was madly right-wing economically but often had views quite at odds with the classic right winger then. eg; she was absolutely pro equal rights for people, regardless of their sexual orientation.

Anyway her astro: Leo Rising and Mars in Scorpio trine Neptune…there is that messianic self-belief and ability to concoct a whole new philosophy with such a wide effect. Uranus is at 2 degrees Capricorn and opposite Neptune. But how fun is that Pluto is trundling over her Uranus in the 5th house and there is a surge in sales? The re-ignition of interest in the book may also fast-track the movie, apparently to star Angelina Jolie and Russell Crowe. Rand also has Moon-Mercury in Capricorn and Sun, Saturn, Ceres and Chiron all together in Aquarius…Great big confident and over the top Aries Midheaven…

ayn_rand_stampYes, she got a stamp!

This is part of the plot synoposis from imdb f.y.i

“…Based upon the controversial 1957 novel by Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged follows the struggles of Dagny Taggart, a railroad heiress trying to maintain her integrity, and keep her family’s railroad alive in the midst of a rapidly decaying world. She faces increasingly corrupt government agencies, the callous incompetence of her own brother, and the systematic loss of her best and most competent workers. As she works to overcome each obstacle, she begins to detect a pattern, and suspect a sinister force working against her. All across the country, there is a growing sense of helplessness, often summed up in a catch phrase that everyone seems to know, but no one knows the origin of – Who is John Galt?….


The Virgo Hour

March 14, 2009 in Astro-Cliches by Mystic Medusa | 14 comments

vintage_housewife

Because the Sun is in Pisces, every night at around dusk, the constellation of Virgo is rising. This is the case no matter where you are in the world. Virgo rises at Sunset and your tolerance for filth lowers. In fact, your very definition of filth alters quite rapidly. What was acceptable a few hours ago is suddenly too yick to bear. You will cheerfully march out into the gloaming to get bleach, fresh cleaning cloths or garbage bags to hold the stuff that you’re suddenly going to get rid of. Watch this and see – the Virgo Hour is eerily apt, no matter what else seems to be going on.

Of course, it need not be cleaning. Think also a sudden urge for fanatical flossing or a pointed paranoia re that pimple on your chin. The urge to check your childrens hair for lice. Or you totally think/realise that a particular conversation, now that you have analyzed it thru the Virgoan Prism, was dissing you and thus requires action of some sort.
