Yo, Find-My-Goddess dude, all is forgiven!  Okay, Ryan O’Neal seems like an abject prick. Having a background in journalism, i tend not to judge peeps being slagged off in the media, as i know how easily they can be stitched up, taken out of context etc. But the Daily Mail’s “I Chatted Up My Own Daughter At Farrah Fawcett’s Funeral” article on Ryan O’Neal is SOMETHING ELSE.

It is short & basically a pithy little summary of the Vanity Fair piece out soon but YICK.

So, okay, I whip up  his chart and go looking for astrological prick indicators (A.P.I.) and voila – the classic afflicted Mars. Ladies and male gays, take note. The “afflicted” Mars is the classic astro-omen of trouble when you are looking at men. Not all men with a trickily aspected Mars are difficult pricks with drugs or violence issues but plenty are.   PLEASE don’t e-mail me to defend your precious snookums who has never laid a hand on you excepting for tantric sex at which he excels and he always puts the rubbish  out sans complaint. I am just saying that in SOME cases, a man with Mars square his Saturn, Uranus, Pluto or Neptune can be a piece of work.

Ryan O’Neal is a multiple conjunct Taurus. He has Sun Venus at Zero degrees Taurus so there is sex appeal, beauty and charm for sure, prob v.strong before dissipated. And so Sun, Venus, Lilith, Part  of Fortune, Saturn, Jupiter and Uranus ALL In Taurus and all in the 11th house. Which gives him a strong Aqua-Uranian flavour. So he is a multiple conjunct Taurus + it’s squaring his Mars and Moon in Aquarius…So he’s a Fixed Square in motion. Could be a saint, of course, but also immense frustration & could alternate between cloying neediness/control freakery and Aqua spaciness/don’t fence-me-in OR ELSE.  Just to add to the fixed square theme, he’s got squares from Pluto in Leo as well.

And he’s got Neptune all over his Aqua-Moon this  year & next so now what? MORE Neptunian substances??? He could claim to be in touch with Farrah Fawcett from the Other Side and try to set up a church. Neptune-Moon can be super-spiritual and awakening but given the Daily Mail story above, I am not confident of this guy’s form. Seriously read it!

And, given the massive conflict between Taurus & Aquarius in this guys chart, what could have done (or do!) to create a better expression of it???  He’s Cancerian Rising so parenthood could have been his salvation. But, well, hitting on your daughter at your lovers funeral AND introducing another child to drugs – allegedly – would be an odd form of it, no? Poor Farrah.

The transits of Mars never passed un-noticed. They’re manifest & in your face.  The other day, when i dinged my head, I was having a Mars transit, for instance. The very same week coincided with the “outing” of open “enemies.”  But BECAUSE I was having a Mars transit, I thought ‘great.’  Better overt than covert. Yes, it all sounds a bit dramatic but fairly classic for any astro-passage involving Mars.  Ditto a short-tolerance for lack of respect, limitations and obstacles.

The upside of Mars???  A LOT of energy that if you channel it effectively can be amazingly productive. The guts to stick up for what is right & to take incisive strategic action, sans waffle or sentiment.

There are two different types of Mars transits – Mars zooms around the place & aspects – say – your Mercury or your Venus. So your talking or your love nature gets ‘Mars-ified’ for a few days. Mars on your Venus is excellent if you’re up for flirtation & new lust opportunities. Mars-Mercury is when you send off a trillion new biz pitches in a day.  And most likely tell someone or other to get effed.

The other type of Mars transit is when your natal Mars is triggered by a passing planet. If this is any planet past Jupiter, it can last for months, maybe years. These are the ones that it is totally worth keeping an eye on. Right now, for instance, anyone with Mars at Zero to five degrees of a Cardinal sign (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) or in the same degrees of Taurus/Virgo is having their Mars affected by Pluto; an awesome unleashing of power: ruthless self-regenerative powers.

Mars is in Gemini and moving to square Saturn (sigh) and then Uranus (yay) over the next few weeks. It will stress out les Mutables the most (Gemini, Virgo, Saggo, Pisces) but everyone gets it a bit…As Saturn and Uranus oppose one another in mid-Sept, Mars triggering both now is actually a really useful prequel of September tensions. No, they need not be tensions. An opposition can also be delightful balance

Again, it’s about trying to find the ideal state between  honouring Saturn (tradition, work ethic, discipline, corporations, security) and Uranus (innovation, excitement, freedom) without overdoing it either end. Too much Saturn and you’re a moribund drudge. Too much Uranus and  you’re a flake adrift.

Soooo Mars, as is his wont, is basically getting in there early and starting a fight between Saturn & Uranus way before it is even due. The square to Saturn perfects by August 11 and the one to Uranus by the 19th. There are friendly aspects to Mars from the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding so being grounded/sensible (to keep Saturn at bay, stay frugal, organised and humble) even as you self-actualise and do the rad Uranian thing is the way to go…

And of course, once Saturn has opposed Uranus in mid-September, our Mars heads into Leo for nearly nine months. And what does Mars do in Leo?  Acts out & shows off. Bigtime. Unreal if you’re a performer though…
