The Moon in Pisces square Jupiter in Gemini at 11:10 PM EDT. This is the Full Moon in Aquarius at 27 degrees 15 minutes.

I welcome sharing my writing, links, quotes and Astro Memes,
but copying and passing off my work as ones own, is plagarism!
Big difference!

The spirit of many may be waking up to a somber tone, as it appears ice cold water has been splashed in a lot of faces after last night. The Moon is in Pisces this morning, which is a bit sleepy, quiet and contemplative. Pisces is definitely a dreamer, so keep dreaming that all is right in the world, or do yourself a favor and wake-up!

We are still very much in the 'orb of influence' of the Full Moon in Aquarius (I know therefore I am) even though the Moon moved into Pisces last night at 6:52 PM EDT. Just go outside tonight and take a peek and you will see the Moon is still very much full of itself, but yet has now moved into Pisces. So 'the masses' as represented by Aquarius are now quietening down as the energy moves into Pisces. Seriously, who is going to lead the 'school of fish' now, not only in the streets, but inside the convention arena.

This day ends with the Moon conjunct Saturn, which presents as somber and depressed with a hefty dose of cynicism and negativity. The Moon rules the mother, estrogen, yin, female and feminism, and Saturn rules the father, testosterone, yang, male and masculinity. A conjunction intensifies the energy of the two (2) planets involved. So the energy of the Moon and Saturn are intensified as they sit on the couch side-by-side with their feet, knees, hips, arms and shoulders touching. Gee, you really have to like someone a lot to sit that close to each other.

This is a Good time to remind you that if you go back and look at the August 2024 Astro Memes you will see that Mars conjunct Jupiter and the Sun conjunct Mercury are still very much alive, well, active and in-play.

Remember, Mars conjunct Jupiter hits the ground running, but also tells us that fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Every transit, aspect, sign and planet has its attractive and not so attractive qualities. How you channel it makes all the difference in the world.

And also remember, the Sun conjunct Mercury loads our brains with information, so much so, that it makes it hard to process. I know, the write-up yesterday was very Sun conjunct Mercury-ish. I write what I feel compelled to write and stop when I feel complete. So this Sun conjunct Mercury transit is an overload of information, which could scramble your brain and prove to be too much. At least you can come back later and read again. Note the 'orb of influence' of these two (2) conjunctions and when the energy ends. Keep reading . . .

Back to the Moon conjunct Saturn that hits exact at 10:45 PM EDT, even though it hits exact later, keep in mind that lunar aspects have a 12 to 14 hour 'orb of influence' before and after exactness. So this will be felt earlier in the day and much stronger as the day presses on. This aspect is shy, reserved and lacks in confidence. There is a lack of warmth and closeness. This conjunction in the Natal Chart shows there was lack of warmth from both parents (mommy and daddy). This aspect could lean you toward shopping in order to make yourself feel better. This aspect is definitely 'emotional parental baggage'.

The Moon will then square Jupiter at 11:10 PM EDT. Squares Beware! Again, lunar aspects have a 12 to 14 hour 'orb of influence' before and after exactness. So this will be felt earlier in the day and much stronger as the day progresses. This aspect is self-indulgent because Jupiter is all about MORE! More to eat, more to drink, more fun, more experience, more everything. It can be super-apathetic taking a, "Oh what the hell" attitude thinking "What's one more drink?" This aspect easily turns lazy and prefers to just ride the camel's back because it's less work. There is a severe lack of discipline, which is interesting since Saturn is also on the scene, and we know he digs on discipline and responsibility. The Moon square Jupiter has a dampening effect on any ambitions. Well, it will be interesting at the DNC tonight.

So much for the excitement at the DNC. Since I didn't watch the DNC, instead we threw horseshoes and then watched 'Locked Up Abroad'. This morning I jumped on X.com to catch any implosions. It appears in order to get the energy back that never was, maybe a quick change in candidates will solve the problem. I sure as heck wouldn't put all of my money on 'cabala', as I still feel she is a non-contributing zero.

Seriously folks, I haven't even been curious enough about her to even run her chart. Not even a little bit. There are not enough words to express my lack of interest in her. My spirit is not motivated or curious at all. I don't care and when I don't care, I really do not waste my time. I don't have an easily tempted spirit. No means no. So I remain, curious as to who they will throw at us next to replace her because the excitement of that campaign clearly needs the 'Breath of Life' breathed into it and since only God can do that, this should prove to be difficult. After all, they did provide free abortions and vasectomies yesterday to the public. I can't imagine God supports these kind of decisions or ideas.

This paragraph is a reference to Pluto. If you read yesterday's write-up, you will know Pluto when you see it. You cannot miss him because he's pretty damn bold and ruthless. Remember when the ice cream man, the milk man and the bookmobile used to come into the neighborhoods growing up? Anyone remember that? Now it's the abortion-mobile and vasectomy-mobile. My how times have changed! God is all about His children. How can the Democratic campaign get a blessing by God to keep this campaign going? How can anyone have a smooth home Life supporting a parking lot abortion policy? Step right up and get your free abortion or vasectomy.

If you are a God-fearing person, you need to check your allegiances. Abortion over God. How can 'they' say their campaign is about the children when they are sucking babies out of wombs in the parking lot and cutting vas deferens in men. By the way, men do not have wombs and women do not have vas deferens, prostates and scrotums. Did you know women only have about a six (6) day window of getting pregnant. So you have to pretty much be hittin' it every single day in order to get pregnant, is it too much to ask to abstain rather than abort. In this sex-obsessed-horned-up society, I guess not. The window of opportunity to get pregnant is NOT THAT BIG! Can't an individual simply go it alone for that small period of time? Good Lord!

For some heavy Pluto description and understanding, if you missed yesterday's write-up, you might want to click back a day and play catch-up. It's disgusting filled (sorry, not sorry), but there is no other way to teach you about Pluto without pulling on some words that will help you 'see', even if those words disgust you.

It's typical to see descriptions about Pluto as the planet of transformation, but I think people forget what has to happen in order for transformation to occur. Throwing the 'transformation' word around is just not enough. In order to experience a full-blown transformation, destruction has to take place, and then reconstruction occurs. You can't rebuild without stripping, tearing down and leveling what was.

Like any make-over to see the transformation, something has to be gutted in order to be rehabbed. It doesn't matter if this is a drug and alcohol issue, a dilapidated house, a new soldier entering the military, or changing your hair color, whatever 'was' has to be completely annihilated and stipped away for the rebuild. It's just a fact. You might not like the process, and the process is an ugly one, but it is what has to happen.

More Pluto information ---> Folks, birthing anything is tough. It hurts, it's not easy, it's scary, and it can certainly be ugly and bloody. Birthing is painful. Whether you are birthing a new business, a project, or a human being. Birthing is a purge. When the body births a baby, there is blood, afterbirth and a human in that purge. Did you know that Pluto rules 'birthing'. It sure does! You would think that Cancer would rule birthing as Cancer rules the mother and the womb. Or maybe you would think that Moon rules birthing because the Moon rules Cancer and the 4th house of home and family. Or you might think the Sun rules birthing because the Sun rules the 5th house of children. But no, Pluto rules birthing because birthing is a TRANSFORMATION and a purge, complete with its blood and afterbirth.

Folks, as we move forward, it is IMPORTANT to continually consider the planets that are still in-play, meaning they are still in the 'orb of influence', like Mercury conjunct Jupiter, and the Sun conjunct Mercury, as well as the four (4) major aspects that hit exact yesterday including the Full Moon in Aquarius (the masses).

Let's not forget that Saturn in Pisces is still putting the squeeze (square) on Mars in Gemini creating 'the contradiction' and squeezing Jupiter in Gemini creating the aspect of 'scared straight'. Saturn is also squeezing Venus in Virgo creating 'difficulties in Love and money'.

You must stay on top of the August 2024 Astro Memes so you can remember all of the major aspects that are still impacting you, as well as the up and coming energies.
