Weekly Starcodes—Planetary Aspect Interpretations & Predictions |
Mercury is busy this week. This symbolic organizer of our minds and all forms of communication and transportation asks us what's important in the face of life and death as it forms a trine to Pluto. It calls us to perceive and pierce though some confusion, illusion, or false view of reality, no matter how many times it’s twittered at midnight, as Mercury opposes Neptune. Here it also questions how we handle or mishandle water, floods, droughts, oils, liquids, fossil fuels, all things ruled by Neptune. Then Mercury challenges us to discuss the potential for real change in our personal life and in our country in the light of these questions as it trines electrifying Uranus.
All year long those three outer planets form an era-changing minor grand trine. Pluto, Lord of life and death, power and empowerment, trines Uranus, who acts like a gear shift to catalyze change, and they both sextile visionary, confusing Neptune.
Throughout this year, whenever a planet hits those early degrees of Libra, which Mercury does today, the Moon will tomorrow, and the Sun will next week, that planet forms a grand-trine with Uranus and Pluto and opposes Neptune, creating a kite pattern, a bisected triangle. Our minds are brought to the potential of this moment. Good aspects don't kick us down the stairs and into the work, they catalyze change and invite us to participate.
These three planets, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, formed a major grand trine in earth signs in the lead-up to the American revolution. Pluto and Uranus were in relationship through most every major culture-changing technological leap since the Guttenberg bible, the first type-set printed book in 1455. Like the mid-1960s when Uranus and Pluto conjunct, these few years will mark a cultural and technological turning point. Which way it turns will be up to us.

This weekend begins under an open-minded Libra Moon-Mercury conjunction that wants us to believe in what's possible, bringing a sociable attitude but with intense questions around social responsibility. Mars squares the forthright asteroid Palace Athena, so look for public debate sparked by intelligent women or concerning women’s truth. Then that grand trine/kite kicks into place.
After a weekend with possibilities and openings Monday brings a new seriousness and energy as the Moon enters Scorpio and squares deep Pluto while the Sun sextiles Mars. Venus squares Pluto on Tuesday and wakes up our deep layers of feeling. Watch out for resentment oozing through unconscious actions, notice it spoken loudly in the headlines; our shadow side, our sadness, and our biggest priorities get stirred. The Moon enters more upbeat Sagittarius on Wednesday, Chiron enters Aries on Thursday, it's time to shift our position and make a move.
While most negotiations in good faith can make progress, we could become painfully aware of long-term consequences of an ongoing challenge, argument, or war as Chiron retrogrades back into Aries; we’ll have to work on that issue through next spring.
Friday, September 11: If we feel upset about something that doesn’t feel fair, let’s speak up with grace, power, details, and aim for root causes rather than a nearby easy scapegoat. Emotions run strong and some concerns are powerful and appropriate and bring a moment of sadness which needs comfort or irritability which needs direction. Honor the feelings but let them flow by rather than break the dam. Wrangle repairs in the morning. The mood softens tonight, stirs our heart, our empathy, and our aesthetics as the Moon enters Libra and conjuncts Mercury.

Saturday, September 12: Look for opportunities created as Mercury trines Pluto under a friendly Libra Moon, if ground is cleared, look for what is ready to shift in and take the place. Use a moment of ease to brainstorm possibilities and tell important stories. Let go of unimportant things and integrate with new circumstances or people. Watch the weather and do not be bamboozled, be careful around alcohol, water, and illusory assumption as Mercury opposes Neptune. A good movie, or other step into a softer reality, furthers.

Sunday, September 13: Stay calm through a brief bumpy patch this morning as the Libra Moon opposes Mars; tempers or small accidents can irritate easily. Our hearts may feel heavy as Venus approaches a square to Pluto and lends background melancholic undercurrents. Yet our minds could be excited by the potential for some new pathway forwards. Strong winds swirl in the emotional realms tonight.
Our hearts may feel heavy about a loss or potential loss as Venus approaches a square to Pluto, lending undercurrents of melancholy or concern, but our minds could be excited by the potential for change for new pathways forwards. Strong winds swirl in the heart tonight.

Monday, September 14: Storm clouds within and without are potential on the horizon this morning as the Scorpio Moon conjuncts Venus and squares Pluto. Jealousy and possessiveness can growl, but we can choose how we act. But we have the energy for a step strong forward rather than resent the past as the Sun sextiles Mars, Finish reviewing recent efforts and start on this semester’s lessons. Not all beginnings are good, watch for tricky chess moves on the world’s maps. Used a focus, a near obsession, for good, chose the focus thoughtfully.
Moon enters Scorpio 12:43 AM MDT, Moon conjuncts Venus 5:32 AM, Moon squares Pluto 6:56 AM, Sun sextiles Mars 1:52 PM.
Tuesday, September 15: Let feelings flow; try neither to avoid discomfort, sadness, snarkiness, or some strong primal feeling, nor identify with it as a permanent reality. Some event or thought reminds us that life is transitory and materiel goods flow in a river both towards us and away as Venus squares Pluto and Neptune sextiles Pluto. Do not play around with jealousy, possessiveness, or territoriality. Ask who are we under the waves. Although we can hear those primal feelings loudly today, listen for a whisper of a calling to the new chapter,
Moon square Jupiter 8:35 AM MDT, Venus square Pluto 12:34 PM, Neptune sextile Pluto 7:46 PM, Moon trine Mars 8:30 PM, Moon sextile Sun 9:29 PM.
Wednesday, September 16: Share dreams and inner messages this thoughtful morning. A new lightness, a movement of the soul kicks in midday as the Moon enters Sagittarius. Do not forget what the heart revealed these last few days, but find more room to move, more options which can help the world feel wider. Move the body and the mind moves; communication flows more easily if we share thoughts while driving, walking, or dancing. If circumstances shift tonight as the Moon opposes Uranus, do not get anxious and borrow trouble from the future. Be flexible but don’t change more than necessary.
Moon enters Sagittarius 10:40 AM. MDT, Moon trine Neptune 5:07 PM, Moon sextile Pluto 5:09 PM, Moon opposed Uranus 9:57 PM.
Thursday, September 17: Help people find common ground, no matter how small, under a grand trine with the Sagittarius Moon, Jupiter, and Saturn which brings our focus to national politics and interpersonal negotiations. Pitch possibilities, negotiate differences and deal with bureaucracies in short, productive waves. While most negotiations in good faith can make progress, we could become painfully aware of the long-term consequences of an ongoing challenge, argument, or war as Chiron retrogrades back into Aries, and need to consider our ways forward with care.
Moon sextile Mercury 9:14 AM MDT, Moon trine Saturn 11:46 AM, Chiron enters Aries 7:53 PM, Moon trine Jupiter 9:01 PM.
