Martian Mercurial

March 18, 2010 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 67 comments

Mercury is now in action-Aries and trining mega-Mars in Leo. Some ideas:

* Faster talking.

* Impatience.

* Men are more daring.

* Ideas zip from the subliminal mind at the speed of light.

* Suffer fools? They should all be interned for the duration of Mercury in Aries.

* Brash ideas cranked out and whizzed off to about 1000 peeps at once, who all run the risk of being struck off the Mercury-in-Aries contact list should they not respond within more or less nano-seks.

* Big-noting.

* Winking. Seriously, monitor winkage. It’s always about more when Mercury is in Aries.

* Gutsy mission statements.

* Interrupting.

* Batting out of your league but w.t.f.

Think about it. Mars just back from that retrograde a.w.o.l. trip really needs a bit of a pep talk. And whom better to deliver that than Mars in Aries. Mercury stays in Aries till early April and then goes into Taurus just as Saturn goes back into Virgo. April will feel quite diff to now. Live it up.

Mars In Leo: Late To The Set?

March 15, 2010 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 48 comments

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.

Moon-Neptunian Dreaming

The Moon near Neptune makes for beautiful dreaming & sacred shamanic sort of carry-on, if you can rouse yourself from the Dark Moon torpor. Perfect also for Tarot, meditation, steampunk, reverie a la music but only contemporary as this is an Aqua Moon, remember. Fab for science AND magic – weren’t they once one and the same? Haute Objectivity helps counter some of the crappier too-soon urges of newly direct Mars. Where-ever you can, hold back and stage a grand re-entry with the New Moon.

Excuse Me?

Lady/Xena/Venus in Aries: Excuse me. Dude haven’t you heard? Mars is Direct already?

Man/Mars in Leo: Om. It’s not out of the Shadowzone yet, still picking up speed.

Diversionary Tactics

March 10, 2010 in Astro-Passages, Moons by Mystic Medusa | 65 comments

Cat People

This Dark Moon-Retro-Mars Business is now making many of us a tad terse….Yes? It’s only a few more days so I am thinking that the best way through it is for us all to become Cat Peeps.

Any existential thought can be brushed aside in a bout of compulsive grooming, stretching and/or elegant musing upon our next meal. Hunting is not permitted (Mars Retrograde) but gazing at birds flying past and fantasizing about leaping ten metres in the air and stopping the stupid bird mid-squawk with one bolt of feline genius is fine. Isn’t that what cats do?

Other potential diversions:

The Bastardo motorbike from Walz Hardcore Cycles - suggested for Pluto/Uranus transitting people & all strong Mars-Aries types.

Campaigning to have Pluto restored as a proper planet. Saggos usually love a good protest but they may be too sore at Pluto after that 15 year extravaganza of Pluto in their sign. Aquarians would probably enjoy this and they may feel it will gain them some good cred for when Pluto gets into Aquarius in 2024.

Tank Magazine – Satoshi Saikusa

Drunk Yoga…Usually the preserve of Pisces & Gemini.

Hanging out in your sofa boat, refusing to take any calls but acting sorta busy. Maybe you’ll call it a Directions Meeting. This would be an Earth Sign thing. My theory is that, at school, Earth signs were always the ones who never got in trouble, even when they started stuff and managed to always look busy…even when they were shamelessly bunking off.

Soaking in your transparent sided-bath with the gold trimmings & needing only for the maid to periodically pop in to adjust the temperature and pour in more flagons of fragrance, fresh lavender & dead sea salts.

Mars & Saturn Retro = Daddy Dearest

Paul Housley The Decline Of The Archetype

You know what?

Mars & Saturn are both Retrograde and they’re in a sort of sextile…This can evoke some v.useful opportunities for pragmatism, especially re dealings with corporations etc. A military mindset, applied toward positive ends and all that.

But it’s also a guaranteed formula to evoke any bad Dad shite you might have lurking within. Or even a good Dad, but with wasted potential, thwarted psyche urges & well, you know the drill. I’m not a shrink but Mars-Saturn Retro means mining the Daddy Dearest nostalgia vein will hit psychic gold real fast.

So hands up who’s doing about a 1000 things at once, heated right up now that Venus is in Aries, pissed off at how a certain something seems to be in slo-mo AND is doing father issues on top of all this?

Mars Retro, Dark Moon But The Show Goes On

Everett Shinn

Yes-yes-yes Mars is Retro for a few more days & even when it DOES go direct, it stays at Zero degrees of Leo for days and the Moon is Dark again…Astro-sensitive peeps are probably even sensing Saturn moving into opposition with Uranus again already…

But this is Mars going bats in LEO and the Moon is soon Dark in CAPRICORN so you know what that means: You keep up appearances & the show goes on. Keep dancing, smile, don’t look down…

Mars At The Zero Leo Point

March 5, 2010 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 90 comments

Allan Amato

For various esoteric reasons, Mars just sitting on the Zero Degree of Leo, as he has been from March 1 and will be till March 22, is quite profound. It trines the magical Zero Aries Point, for a start. Never mind. Just see it as focussing the mind somewhat. As well as been madly frustrating. Like revving an engine but you’re not going anyplace. Or endless copulation sans climax. Still, it ain’t as bad as that interminable Mars in Taurus Retro we had in late 2005/early 2006 that squared everything. At least with Mars in Leo, you can hype your ego and get a lot of manicures whilst hissing your latest “policy” to anyone still listening or even some paid help.

Now two things: If you have NOT got Martian Bats, you really should consider it. Mars in Leo just carries on and on until June. Scroll down the page to see the Mars bit. If you do have the password, please re-read it as Mars is just peaking now and until March 22. Even though its direct next week, it stays stuck on the Zero point.

Secondly: Apart from Martian Bats and all that info, you can look to the part of your personal chart where you have Zero Degrees of Leo and consider just absolutely blasted with Mars energy (heat, guts, gorm, glory, fury, lust, irritation, Qi, etc) for the next SEVENTEEN days. Yes, it’s only been five days with Mars going batso at Zero Degrees of Leo. This is also the point he was at back in mid-October, if that is of interest. So events/emotions etc from then are triggered…

Astro-Query: What Would You Tell Your (Slightly) Younger Self?

March 3, 2010 in Astro-Query by Mystic Medusa | 65 comments

Since last October, Mars has been retracking the path that Saturn (lessons, karma, obstacles, earthly rules) took from July 2005 until September 2006.

Since the start of March, Mars has been buzzing away at the July/August 2005 point of Saturn….More on Mars later but for now, see if those date are not evocative.

Also, if you could do a really quick little time-tour backwards to visit your slightly younger self in this time frame, what would you say to her/him. Advice? Perspective?

Or if you want to do a Saturn cycle situation: How does late 96 and early 97 resonate for you? What would you tell THAT person who was you??? Tres psych but also some good insights, yes?
