Saturn, The Sun and the Moon

“Saturn, known by the Greeks as Chronos (or Time) is the farthest planet from the Sun easily visible to the naked eye. Saturn thus demarcates the boundary between the visible and the invisible.” Caroline W Casey
Saturn’s influence is strong this weekend – squaring both the Sun and the Moon.This indicates a good time to slow down and assess progress from a detached perspective. Do take time to recharge and reconfigure if necessary,
The First Quarter Moon – known as a time when challenges arise to face intentions set at the New Moon – is Saturday at 29 degrees of Scorpio conjunct Saturn. It is best to put off any serious decision making under this influence and to assume the information is not all in. One of The Sabian symbols associated with this time is,”An unsealed letter has vital and confidential information.”

Venus, Uranus and Jupiter

“Dreams are …illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you.” Marsha Norman
There are interesting planetary energies as we head towards the First Quarter Moon on Saturday 8/22.
Venus continues her retrograde journey – making this time (through early Sept)
a good time to review aspects of  you life related to joy, abundance and pleasure and how if you feel there is room for improvement- to start scheming and  making plans about how you might do so.
Venus is moving back to a favorable alignment to Uranus this week so surprise is in the air. This aspect can bring romantic encounters and other unexpected events. It does have an erratic unpredictable current however and relationships started under this influence often take an unconventional, freedom loving path. With Venus  retrograde there can be the return of an old lover. Wait until September to have a more accurate picture about how any events of this nature are likely to turn out.
It is a good time to revisit unrealized dreams – even of your childhood – and see if there are ways that you can make them manifest in your life now.
Jupiter has moved into Virgo the sign of healing. If there are ways you would like to improve your health and general well being there is support and guidance available. Make a concrete plan which is part of your routine and commit to it.
The First Quarter Moon is on Saturday 8/22 at 29 Scorpio I will write about it later in the week.
