Happy New Moon in Libra and, as you know, it is enhanced/trined by beautiful Neptune…Hence the classic New Moon fresh beginning vibe is super-responsive to visualisation, hypnosis and generally dreaming your way into the future you desire…And behold! Kim Falconer sends me her guest post from Jeanette Maw’s Good Vibe Blog…It’s super-apt…here is a bit but you can click thru to read the whole thing…

“…Many of you have heard me talk about astrology and law of attraction, but for those who haven’t, here ‘s the nut shell: Astrology (the birth time and place) doesn’t determine our character. It’s the other way around. We’re born at a particular time because of who we are. We don’t reflect the moment of birth—it reflects us!  Our astrology cannot limit conscious awareness, however it can offer timely insights and support along the way to our enlightenment.

It is in this spirit I offer these tips under the New Libra Moon!

Tip one: Find your story

To alter your thoughts about love (i.e. improve your love life) you have to know what they are in the first place. The quickest way to find out is to ask. ‘What’s my story?’ (In six words or less please. Any longer and it’s the gremlins talking.) If you think it’s too hard to say it in so few worlds, relax. Your unconscious took care of it for you long ago. (Handy if the words are I have a wonderful love life. Or, Love is bliss. Or, I’m so darn lucky in love.  Not such a bonus if it out to be, Men suck.

No matter what you might be doing to shift your love vibe around, things aren’t going to budge while your story remains unconscious. When unknown, the story is fate—it creates your ‘relationship reality’. If I say, ‘all the good ones are taken,’ sure enough when I look for them, their taken! (This is something I used to say a lot and demon’s fire if it wasn’t true . . . until I changed my tune!)…”

“I’m a perfect Libra. I have all the best traits of that sign – balance, harmony, diplomacy, a love of beautiful things, creativity. I have never been physically attracted to a Gemini.”

Mercury Is Direct!

Merry Mercury Direct & now, well, things go faster and there should be heaps less of that mixed-messaging style confusion but as I say, Mercury Retrograde purists don’t count it as DONE until Mercury gets back to six degrees of Libra, the point at where it went Retro in the first place. How I Think This Works: The contracts signing being a bad idea, shit breaking down, crazy Freudian slippage and all that stuff is done once Mercury is Direct. But dialogue from as far back as mid-August still has a while to play out. There will be further developments on any important dialogue in that time. Or reversals. Weirdings. Revelations. Secrets. You get the idea. Particularly when Mercury Squares Pluto again for the third time in a row on October 11.

Celeb-Fluff: Kayne West & Co

I know some of you don’t like Celeb Fluff posts but they actually are a fab way of deepening one’s astro knowledge, they really are.

I was just reading that Kayne West disrupted the MTV Awards when Taylor Swift was making her acceptance speech. His point was that Beyonce was better, basically. This would have mortified Beyonce – she is a Virgo. And, in fact, she made a brilliant gesture by later getting Ms Swift back to finish what she was going to say…

Kayne West is a Gemini & whilst i love his music & thoughts on Deja Vu, Geminis can be cruel/thoughtless anti-people. Seriously, they just say stuff. A la the Australian d.j. Kyle Sandilands. They go for the wit, sans empathy.

My theory is that West wasn’t so much sticking up for Beyonce as annoyed by his new girlfriend, Amber Rose, hogging all the attention. She has been strutting about in catsuits and silver contact lenses. She’s a madly Multiple Conjunct Libra: Sun,  Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Pluto all in Libra…That’s mega-Venusian.  That Saturn is about to go over the whole lot means we’ll prob be hearing way more of her…

Beyonce loves astrology, reportedly; this is her song about being in love with a Sagittarian guy.

The Libran Moon Before The Storm…

You know the Libran Moon drill – diplomacy.

See no, hear no, speak no E.

And it’s worth doing the groundwork toward a more peaceful existence now, as once the Moon gets into Scorpio it kicks off the Mars-Pluto opposition now-building but exact later in the week. Full lecture re this in the Daily Mystic but essentially, keep thy temper, don’t go picking fights unless you’re totally armed & ready and find  positive uses for this potentially rad/regenerative astro vibe.

Love the Libran Moon in the meantime – be moisturised, hydrated, even of temper and deflect all idiots with good manners where poss. Monthly Horoscopes updated tonight. And – this is ridiculous – i was thinking of the astrology for a month ahead so forgot that Venus was trine Uranus this weekend; I got the Uranian turning up and a sudden outbreak of extreme flirting with the Organic Piscean. The U tried every trick in the book but i realised i was over him – thankfully, with Venus aspecting Uranus, such realisations bear not even a tint of melancholy.

And my friend Aqua-Girl actually went and ordered The Singularity guy’s book that was on the blog back in June. Apparently the actual diet (life extension etc) will “re-programme” your DNA. So fairly extreme. We were discussing it whilst eating strawberry shortcake and drinking wine at a pub bistro, as you do. She’s off the polyphasic sleep cycling & her Venus-Uranus moment du jour was discovering her quite-a-bit-younger nanophysicist student lover is actually immensely wealthy. Plus the Scorpio Sex Academic met a hot fireman named Trevor, Cancerian.

Astro-Courtney Love

July 8, 2009 in Celeb Fluffery by Mystic Medusa | 33 comments

COURTNEY LOVE BY MARIO TESTINO

Mario Testino

Have TOTALLY lost track of Courtney Love.

She’s a Cancerian – it’s her birthday on Saturday and she has Libra Rising. Hence her amazing ability to Scrub Up sensationally well when she wants to. But the reason i’ve lost track ain’t her astro.

She’s currently got Saturn opposing her Chiron and squaring her Mars-Venus in Gemini AND Lilith in Sagg so that buzzy charisma & self-belief would be a bit harder to come by. But Saturn DOES actually move, thank fuq, and she  has a while to get her shit together before Pluto opposes her Sun. Although, Pluto is presently hanging around her South Node so the Past comes up in Plutonic ways …maybe even more info re Nirvana/Kurt Cobain and by Feb.

What I have lost track of is what she represents: Grunge Icon? Ex Riot Grrrl Still Manifesting Feminist/Iconic Music Artiste? Homicidal Ho? Genius? Victim Of Plastic Surgery-N.P.D./Drugs Et Al?  Rock Goddess? Icon of Clean Living Personified? Exhibitionist wannabe?

At the hairdressers the other day I read in one mag that she was on some hideous drug/dangerously thing and in another mag that she has embraced Kundalini Yoga to the point that she has been initiated, is becoming an instructor and altering her name. The Scorpio Sex Academic has such disdain for the woman that she cancelled her Kundalini Yoga teacher training. There were other factors, such as the celibacy, but still.

Courtney Love has a beautiful Cancerian Sun-Moon conjunction in the visionary 9th House and Eros/Mercury on her Leo Midheaven so if she moves half-way to courting her public, they will be there for her. But the last “news” on her actual website is from 2007 – her clean, sober & a Givenchy muse. I thought the Nick Broomfield doco fascinating but also that she could act in that Larry Flynt bio movie…Has she done any music of note lately? Ever?

Astro-Gaga: Inner Child 101

I thought the whole Inner Child seemed to erupt in the 90s but apparently it emerged in the 70s. I think i did one session with someone re it once & it was surprisingly healing, although v.easy to wallow, I imagine, if you wanted to. It was to do with something traumatic & the therapist got me to go back and talk to myself as a five year old etc etc. Comfortingly. Not just nattering. Not-The-Typical-Virgo was doing Self-Parenting Workshops at the same time & we  hung a lot at the pub in Bondi, discussing our findings.

The concept may have slunk from favour now but I thought it interesting that Carl Jung (a multiple Leo) thought of it as the Divine Child & like this amazing golden creature within, whom we could access to be more creative and spontaneous. A sort of invincible summer vibe. But John Brawshaw – a Cancerian and arguably the most prolific/best known of all the Inner Childish authors – thought it nearly always “wounded” and in need of rescue. Etc. Yes, I KNOW that is a massive generalised summary.

I know Louise Hay (a Libran!) is totally into it but that Dr Phil – a Virgo – does not apparently believe in Inner Child work. With the obvious disclaimer, that anyone with a mental illness should seek professional help and not be stuffing around on this site, can we please do Moon in Scorp amateur shrinking & Inner Child theory? Is it still valid, was it ever & do any of you have this consciousness.

BTW, i only watch it at the gym but i think Dr Phil is sooo Virgo and he should go head-to-head with Louise Hay in all her flowery uber-euphemistic ‘everything i eat turns to health & beauty’ glory. I love her but seriously, wouldn’t a debate between those two be FUN television. The person with the prob could sit between them as they fight it out for the best “solution.”

Astro-Beauty: Can Only Librans Wear Pink?

Was reading an article in Brit Vogue that says in ye olden days Pink was considered a neutral colour – such as beige or black – that it was only ‘done’ for the aristocratic woman to wear it and that is still the most flattering colour ever. It apparently does something magical to the complexion.

But I read ages ago & cannot remember where but it was something quite hokey, that only Librans should wear pink. Everyone else looks sinister or naff in it, lol. Soooo aristocratic Librans wearing it as a neutral. I CAN picture Gwyneth in a pink polo shirt simpering with limpid empathy but I also quite like Lady Gaga (Pisces) usurping the hue.

Astro-Beauty; Legs & Your Past Lives

A Sagittarius Trying To Be Inscrutable

Sagittarians, i.m.o. always seem to have the best legs of the Zodiac & infuriatingly effortlessly so. Though maybe it’s because they are so active & stride around the world doing athletic things. Not so effortless after all.

Geminis come 2nd as they tend to be able to keep a kind of gamine thing going on…Librans do well with legs too though that’s more of a diligence a la Pilates, massage & cream.

Virgoans are third-equal tie with Libra by dint of being able to bloody well stick with those no-caffeine-no-wheat-no-diary gorgeous legs reccies.

Legs tips please…I think probably the only thing i ever feel nostalgic about being really super-young is that spontaneously casually slithering into a mini-skirt and strutting out the door sensation. It’s heaven.

Leg tips; It totally hurts but doing the ’stretching out the ilio-tibial muscle on a roller’ seems to iron out dimples on the side of the legs & it’s like a good pain + amazing for suppleness.

I would adore to be convinced otherwise but i think cellulite creams don’t particularly work (?) apart from the aromatherapy oils with ingredients such as juniper & cypress.

Acupuncturists can get rid of little capillary-vein things & their cupping is amazing for “stagnant” qi in the legs. Rolfing, Myo-Fascial massage and other deep tissue stuff are all good…

And – i once read this in a (I think) Denise Linn book – any stubborn fat or cellulite on the thighs is stored anger re relationships in past lives.

O.m.g. So there is a really good batso mugwort-dreaming target for a quiet night. You go into your dreamworld, totally willing to confront and work through past life lovers who gave you the shits & you wake up with smooth thighs.

Yes! I am thinking that processed foods such as pastries are prob also a bit to blame.

D.I.Y. Astro: Stud or Dud – His Mars Sign

June 9, 2009 in D.I.Y. Astro, Planets by Mystic Medusa | 78 comments

Libran Brandon London, a wide receiver for the New York Giants

I know. Tres cheesy. And Stud or Dud is hideously sexist to guys but it is light-hearted, yah?

Some Mars signs are super-well-placed…Mars in Aries, the sign it rules, Mars in Capricorn (exalted) and Mars in Scorpio, ruled by Mars before Pluto was discovered.  Mars in the opposite signs of this lot is considered way less strong; Mars in Libra, Mars Cancer and Mars in Taurus. Also Mars in Pisces – this being the sign that Venus is exalted in.

Men with Mars in Libra, Cancer or Taurus could (technically) be said to exhibit a higher degree of pass-agg behaviour or have probs asserting themselves directly. Note that Mars rules ambition, energy levels, anger & libido. It also rules “men”.  Now, IF the Mars is on the Midheaven (Capricornian vibe) or Ascendent (Aries-like vibe) then it’s considered to be strong enough to cancel out even a less-desirable sign placement. Likewise the Houses. The 1st, 8th and 10th houses are all super-strong placements for Mars.

Mars in negative aspect to Neptune seems to so often associated with the official vices (OTT addictions & gambling + general neer do well grifting). Mars in challenging aspect to Saturn, Pluto & Uranus can also produce the classic rebel sans cause or even an overly angry guy. Note how I am tempering my language. This is not meant to be diagnostic astro for any guy in your life – as charts are complex things! But leaving aside the worst-case Mars scenarios, it’s really interesting to look at your man’s Mars sign for better understanding.

For instance, if a man has Mars in Libra, he WILL dither and it’s got nothing to do with you…Mars in Aries runs a hell of a lot on Respect & Pride; don’t kill it. Mars in Virgo WILL wig over details & crap service. If  you see a man with a Kataka (Cancerian) Mars, you’re most likely looking at some convoluted seduction style. If a man with Mars in Scorp or Capricorn wants you,  you’ll know all about it. They don’t muck about. Mars-In-Taurus moves at glacial pace & is super-hard to budge from an entrenched situation. Mars in Gemini will “jump” fast. Are you getting it?
