Starry Eyed

Mon Oct 29- Sun Nov 04


MoonWeek GEMINI thru VIRGO



After the full moon last Thursday we're in the waning cycle, the ebb of the tide, the seeding through decay from the Libra new moon the 10th of October. This week two backward moving planets turn direct, Mercury and Neptune. The dreams, visions, delusions, flights of mind and fantasies of the last cycle have to fruit or die. It's the cycle of nature. Look for the seeds you keep and don't weep for the ones you don't. They are food for something else.

Monday the moon is in babble, Gemini. Take care one could say something that will fester and infect quickly, like by later tonight. 'Cause the moon heads into Cancer. It's always a good time to review what you did babble about the last couple of days and make sure you didn't give a verbal agreement that you don't want to back up in writing.

Jupiter gets square with Venus and then glances Neptune while the Sun and Saturn mix. A potent start to the week. Outer planet stuff disperses over time, so the week carries these flavors. Visions of expansion, and expression being freed from the dream world. Social fantasies will be loosed from the minds and souls and walk the streets as reality. Revel in the costumes of the everyday and see the uniforms they hide. What comes up from the depths always returns to them, it's the wake left behind we have to deal with.

Tuesday the Cancer moon passes by Mars. The craying tissues will be needed as with each month passage of the moon through Cancer. Mars is brewing some nastiness and doesn't like to be suppressed. If you happen to be the leader of the free world that has a Sun in Cancer almost by degree of this transit take a breath before you push any buttons today. Especially big red ones. And if you're not that guy we could all use a bit of channeling into the over soul to avoid dubya from acting out today, he makes such huge messes when he does.

Wednesday we should still walk and talk lightly. Cancer moons are no joke. The body/mind/heart is at its most sensitive and a great time to watch for internal messages on areas of health that may need attention. It's easy to just live on anxiety and adrenalin, pushing on just to keep pushing on. But it's far easier to not get sick or emotionally down by tending to the body/mind when it sends us hints. Staying hydrated is sooo important. It takes more water to keep us warm then to cool us off so it's a sneaky thing that can happen, getting dehydrated when it's chilly, then all sorts of fun phlegm breaks out. If you can't stay healthy for you try staying healthy for those around you. It's embarrassing to be the one that brought the superBug home.

Neptune turns Direct today. Lumbering backward since the end of May the in-tune of the village will look over dreams, visions, obsessions and the like to see what this cycle from then to now has exposed. You learned something about the deeper workings of yourself. Now is the time to actualize it so you don't lose the lesson. It will take a few days for Neptune to get momentum forward so use the 'in station' period as a dreamy review.

Thursday the moon goes into Leo and it's the last quarter Moon. We're really in the dark side now! The Leo Moon offers a bit of energy and passion. So if the Cancer moon brought you down to the depths now you have a chance to break out. This evening is 'dia de los muertos'. The day of the dead. With so many people inviting the dead down for dinner how could they refuse? If you have a chance to head to the cemetery of someone that died this year take them their favorite food and drink and go hang out with them. It's a lot cooler and more real then Halloween.

Mercury goes DIRECT today! The great communicator has been retro since the 11th of October. Look back and see what machines, devices and calendar meetings tortured you the last few weeks. Before heading forward there is an 'in station' period of a couple days. So writers, artists, technicians all should give everything the once over before turning it over. Any blatant miscommunications of the last few weeks should be combed over for hidden problems. Don't just gloss them over because when they crack it could pull it all down on you.

Friday many will have put off the Halloween party until the weekend to take full advantage. It will serve to be good timing as the moon is in Leo, defiantly a party sign. All sorts of big cats will be out and flashing red. Remember to place nice and keep the drama to a minimum. Leo moons can turn on you, confident and sassy one moment weepy and self doubting the next.

The Moon heads into Virgo for the weekend, so Saturday and Sunday are sort of the 'worker bee window'. The mind will be sizzling and the hands and feet too. We all could use a bit of home cleansing and releasing of the clutter. It's definitely time to get the cave in order. Small bits of effort can pay off big in changing the 'vibe' of your surroundings. Hibernation season is here and you don't want stuff smelling up the corners, it makes for a grumpy bear.

The Sun and Mars trine today, bringing together the powerful water signs of Scorpio and Cancer. The explosive energy of Mars is stifled in Cancer and things are bound to explode to the top. Mix fire and water and you get steam. A potent physical force. I already made light of king george's placements in Cancer. It's a real thing though and the headlines could ooze with its effects. On a persona level we can use this steam judiciously to push up things we don't want in the depths. Sure it's easier in the short run to ignore all that deep Scorpio stuff. The downside is it's working while you sleep, while you focus on trivial things. Remember live with reality or it comes to live with you.
