Return offer closed
Everyone who has commented will receive a Return reading. However, I am now out of spots and will not be taking more Return reading requests. Starting next week, I will be in contact via email with individuals who requested a reading, and I hope to post the first of my analyses next week as well. As I said in my initial offering post, this might take me awhile–I’ll be able to do no more than two readings a week, and one is more likely.
I’ve got a lot to do this weekend, so I probably won’t post until next Monday or Tuesday–see y’all then!
OK, what’s next? (Upcoming major transits in the sky)
OK, so the Saturn/Neptune opposition is thisclose to becoming yesterday’s old news. What’s going to replace it?
Venus’s retrograde in Virgo means that she will be bouncing back and forth around Saturn (exact conjunctions on 8/14 and 10/13-14). That’s quite a long time for Venus to be hanging around one of the outer planets. While the distance between the bodies does reach 10+ degrees for a few days, I’m willing to grant the whole period between mid-August and mid-October for this extended conjunction.
Because Venus is in aspect with Saturn, this means she is also in aspect with Pluto. I would say that the Venus/Pluto trine started right at the end of June (exact on 7/9/07) and continues until mid-October (exact on 8/15/ and 10/3). Again, there are a few periods of 5-6 days where the planets are out of orb, but I’m willing to grant the overall effect.
As for Saturn and Pluto themselves–their trine influence wraps up at the beginning of October and resumes again in January 2008, when Saturn is retrograde in Virgo and Pluto takes a tentative step into Capricorn. This trine influence continues until July 2008–by this time Saturn is, of course, direct in Virgo again, and Pluto has retreated into Sagittarius.
Coming back to the current time, we see that Jupiter is about to go direct (on August 7) and will soon re-enter a square aspect with Uranus in Pisces. This square will last until the beginning of November (exact around 10/8-9) and from there Jupiter will go into conjunction with Pluto–a situation that will last until the end of January 2008. Jupiter’s trine to Saturn will pick back up again in December 2007 and end in early February 2008.
Mutable energy folks, it looks like it is Your Turn on the Wheel. The Cardinal folks had their fun when Saturn passsed through Cancer and Jupiter was in Libra. The Fixed folks had their fun with Mars’s extended passage through Taurus, Jupiter in Scorpio and, of course, the Saturn/Neptune opposition. Now it looks like all the action will be taking place in the Mutable signs (and by “mutable signs,” I really mean “Sagittarius”). Of course, since a lot of this is happening on cusps, there will be some influences in Leo (late Fixed) and Capricorn (early Cardinal), but by and large the major focus will be in late Sagittarius and early Virgo (the predominant positions of Pluto, Jupiter and Saturn during this period).
October 2007 is going to be a crazy time, with a lot of influences becoming exact and then ending. Everyone should be mindful as to what they decide to do with that month, especially during the first half.
