Hello friends! I hope you all are enjoying the last bit of summer before fall comes. Today I finally harvested a few apples off of our tree, I’d been waiting patiently for them to be able to pick! You can tell if an apple or pear is ready to be picked by turning the apple 90 degrees, and if the stem snaps off, it’s ready. If not, let it ripen a bit more, it will only get bigger, as long as the deer don’t get them! This brings to mind so many sayings, “don’t shake the tree if the fruit ain’t ripe”, is one of them, and indeed this is how a lot of us are feeling right now. We want to shake the tree, but we can’t, our projects are still growing, so we must be patient and frugal. Frustrated, and unable to move forward, and this is what happens when you have five planets retrograde. Currently, we have Pluto, Saturn, Neptune, Jupiter, and now Uranus all retrograde. These are slow moving planets, so they affect the masses, as it takes longer for them to rotate the Sun. Mercury is going retrograde this month on the ninth at almost 15 degrees of Virgo.
Mars is now in Taurus at almost 13 degrees as I’m writing this, and is approaching the fixed star Aldebaran at 15 degrees of Taurus. This star is known to presage war, and is opposite to the fixed star Antares, which means “Ante-Aries”, or “like Mars”. Both of these stars have been used in antiquity to determine when war was coming, and when to launch an attack. Being that it’s in the US birth chart’s 6th house of health and open enemies, we see where this anger is coming from, most likely overseas with our enemies who are threatening war, and anger about health care. I feel that there are so many issues of dire importance right now, but people feel neglected and unheard regarding their health, mental health, women’s health, and also that the virus is mutating and will come back. We will also have some truth revealed now concerning the handling of the pandemic, and there will be anger about what we find out.
The most important thing to remember during these times is to not seek revenge; rotten fruit will fall from the tree by itself. You may feel under personal attack right now, but you just do your thing, and let God handle it. Sometimes you need a lawyer, and that’s fine, too. Like I always, say, “don’t get mad, hire a lawyer and let him get mad for you”. Mars is the soldier, and we must choose our battles right now. A form of this toxicity is jealousy and being threatened by others, putting others down so we get more, and wanting too much. As Taurus is a materialistic sign this manifests as money, popularity, prestige, attention, etc. It’s interesting how this pans out, as those who tell others to “stay in their lane”, are actually coming from this toxic place of greed, fakeness and arrogance. Just put your blinders on, and ignore, ignore, ignore. They’re mad, because they can’t control you. Let them be mad.
The mantra for this month is:
“From the bottom of my heart, I do not care what you think of me”.
