The BIG NEWS today is Venus in Cancer opposes Pluto in Capricorn, which is the aspect of 'Fatal Attraction'. There are a few things that I need to cover that are extremely important before I get to the interpretation of Venus opposing Pluto because folks, remember that super-scary time that I wrote about coming into these last two (2) years and four (4) months of Pluto in Capricorn, well it's on like Donkey Kong!

Here goes . . . Cancer and Capricorn are opposite signs, Cancer rules Life 'inside' of the home such as; the family, the home, the childhood, domestic affairs, the biological and psychological foundation, and the mother . . . and Capricorn rules Life 'outside' of the home such as; career, profession, rank in society, status in the community, leveling up in your public standing, influences, the father and authority figures such as; bosses, managers, CEOs, government, military and anyone else who holds power and influence over others.

Folks, it's easy to play Monday morning quarterback and call the shots after the event. Certainly we can see some things play out now that the event has arrived or it is here. Fourteen (14) years ago, back in 2008 it was not so easy to imagine Pluto in Capricorn playing out as it has, but yet here it is. I was hammered back then for what I wrote. HAMMERED! And yet now, it is easy to see these things unfold because they are right in front of our eyes. IT'S ON THE TV! Now it's easy to yell out, "PLUTO IN CAPRICORN!" when we see it.

Before you read this any further, I feel that it is my job to hammer you and help you understand these aspects so that you are seeing and imagining how these aspects can show up for you personally in real time or in your Solar Return over the course of the next year if they are embedded in your birth 'day', instead of you calling what you see 'after the fact' as a Monday morning quarterback. Well hell ya' you can see the play at work on Monday morning after the big game. Of course you can see and call it. I want you to be able to see it and call it for yourself when you see this in your Natal Chart or Solar Return. Now that's a 'broadcaster!'

What I want you to see, know, and feel, is the energies at work before they even come into exactness or grow into something that you cannot get your arms, brain or energy around. Some of these aspects are like pain. When you feel the prodrome (early symptom) take that the damn pain killer so that the pain does not get out of control. As most of you know, it's easier to manage pain than it is to treat pain. Once pain arrives full-blown and throbbing, you can hardly get your arms around it or take enough medicine to get you out of pain (or that relationship or trouble that you find yourself in). When you feel the prodrome, manage the damn pain and get out of that sticky situation. In other words, be ready and PREP! Prepare yourself!

Take action and do not wait until Monday morning to say, "Oh yeah, here's what happened and why it happened." We KNOW what happened! Can you call the play, meaning feel the energy before it arrives? That's why we study Astrology . . . right? We want to manage the pain. We also want to fine the easy and effortless route to reward and success. We want to know where are the blocks, pits and potholes? Right? And where's Saturn in the chart so we know where he wants us to develop patience, stability, maturity and responsibility.

There are a lot of Monday morning astrologers out there, don't be one of them. Otherwise, you are just regurgitating what everyone else is saying and have no thoughts of your own. Oooops, there's that reference to the movie, 'Good Will Hunting' that I referenced on Thursday - August 4, 2022.

You MUST feel the prodrome of the energy, which is why I teach you 'applying' and 'separating' degrees. In your Expansive Natal Chart and Solar Return I ALWAYS include the 'applying' and 'separating' degrees. THIS IS YOUR INTUITION!!!

Further, God did not forget about you when he was passing out intuitive gifts. Some people, just 'choose to use' their intuition and trust their intuition more than others. That's just a fact! Heck, I trust my intuition more than I trust myself because I absolutely believe that my intuition is God speaking to me, through me. I'm going to trust that before I trust anything or anyone else, including myself. If you really knew it was God talking to you, through you, then you would not question your intuition.

The 'applying' and 'separating' degrees page has been on this website probably fifteen (15) years. Take the time to scroll through some of the pages on the left navigation side when 'any' Astrology page is open. The charts that I write are tailored to the study tools on the left side navigation column.

Remember, applying degrees is the energy as it is approaching before 'exactness' and separating degrees is the energy as it pulls away from exactness.

Applying degrees is you feeling the energy 'approaching', which is intuitive. It is the prodrome (the early symptom) of feeling the energy coming on, just like you feel a cold coming on. The separating degrees will leave you feel relieved that the energy is finally over, or refreshed that the energy occurred, like a breath of fresh air. It just depends on the kind of aspect - trine, sextile, square, opposition, conjunction, etc.

The world is so caught up with INFLUENCERS that we will see influencers fall, and so will you if you are not mindful. Remember, an influencer is in a position of authority (Pluto in Capricorn). They influence other people to do certain things, whether it is Good or bad. Those influencing the crooked path will fall.

Good God folks, you have to choose a side NOW, and while you are at it, pray you are right! Can you be bought? If enough money is dangled in front of your face, can you be bought? Pluto in Capricorn tells us that those in a position of authority, and influencing others is in a position of authority, they will fall, heads will roll.

Having said that, I would not get myself too caught up in the recent raid on PRESIDENT Trump's Mar-a-lago estate. While the left leaners are looking for a fall from Trump. You must understand, bread crumbs bring out the mice. Don't you know that yet?

Folks, this Venus opposing Pluto transit is a 'devil made me do it' type of aspect. I strongly suggest you choose the side that revere's God and promotes God. There is no other way to say it. I'm NOT talking religion here. I'm talking GOD! Remember, we are in a 'spiritual war'. This has been said by EVERYONE at this point, surely you believe it by now and are repeating those words yourself, "We are in a spiritual war." If not, you better wrap your brain around it. Surely you have heard by now, "Before an awakening, there is a rude-awakening." This is an old phrase, but is so appropro for this moment in time, that surely you have heard it said and repeated by now.

And folks, while this 'Fatal Attraction' aspect of Venus opposing Pluto is present, if you have to ask yourself if you are the 'Fatal Attraction' (the trouble) then you may want to adjust your mirror and get a long hard look. People know if they are the 'bad influencer' or not. If you have to ask, then adjust your dials, mirror, and attitude. By 'Fatal Attraction' I mean the one who is attempting or tempting others to fall into self-destruction.

This Venus opposing Pluto aspect began in the 'orb of influence' on August 2, 2022 and will last until August 15, 2022. For those who have been reading my writings for forever, do you remember when I wrote that 6arack o6ama would go down as 'the worst' President in U.S. history. I still stand behind that statement as the dark days before us come to pass. I know, 666iden thinks he is the President, that's 6uild 6ack 6etter = 666iden.

I still believe as stated, that we will see o6ama testifying and stuttering for words. He stutters when he is nervous. When he is 'not' phrasing his words carefully and waiting for applause, as he gazes into the distance looking down his nose at the peasants, he is nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs. He is one Leo here, but a different Leo there.

So folks, I need to fire some BIG, BRIGHT AND BOLD warning shots here because this is not child's play and someone will get burned. This energy of Venus opposing Pluto is singe-worthy and cringe-worthy. It's not going to be pretty no matter how many designer labels you put on this aspect. This aspect has a level of cruelty and savagery that is incomprehensible.

Venus opposing Pluto is a temptor or temptress. Those in high places will be tempted because they cannot get enough of the attention, glamour, fabulousness, vanity, wealth, attention, free passes, elbow-rubbing and hoighty toity living. This will be 'part of' their downfall, as this type of energy cannot stop bragging, flaunting and showing their obscene self-admiration. As Jesus would say, "They have their reward."

Venus opposing Pluto is a temptress! Have you not seen FATAL ATTRACTION? It is crazy Love, jealousy, cruelty, heartless and risky business. And this is not only crazy woman Love, it is crazy man Love. And even if you are not in some twisted coupling that you call "Love" or "relationship", this aspect will tempt you to be and do everything you are not if you do not tap into energy that could keep you in your sober, right, mature and responsible mind, which would be something along the lines of robbing your Capricorn or Saturn energy.

Venus opposing Pluto is all about domination, power and drama. The powers-that-be are pulling your strings and making your dance.

Pluto is insecure, jealous and obsessed, so this aspect is obsessed with the idea of Love and the desire to have it, as well as have that Love and desire directed at the self. "I'm not going to be ignored, Dan!" as Alex said to Dan in the movie 'Fatal Attraction.'

Tue. August 9, 2022 Applying degrees begins August 2, 2022 Exact on August 9, 2022 at 1:18 AM EDT Separating degrees ends on August 15, 2022

The same holds true for the desire to have money. Venus opposing Pluto expects Loved ones to share Love with the same level of intensity. As a result, relationships are infested with a struggle for power and control, probably even violence, as one attempts to topple the other and gain dominance and control.

Energy needs to be directed into a creative pursuit that is timing consuming and demanding to keep the individual's emotions from wandering and ballooning into something that does not exist.

The likelihood of becoming involved in intensely emotional and sexual relationships is very high. The same will hold true for an individual on a quest for more money, especially if that individual needs money to pay bills. Oh what a desperate insecure person will do for Love or money. Is there no dignity? Is there no level to which one will go when in such desperate need of Love or money?

This energy might be called "passionate" when it really should be called, "jealous, possessive, insecure, demanding and cruel." This aspect attracts the wrong type of people to couple-up with and have a relationship or to get involved with in matters of money.

This aspect can easily bring on marital problems because of dictatorial attitudes and behaviors toward a mate, or vice versa. Pluto is the planet of transformation through destruction, then reconstruction; therefore, there are attempts to remake or transform the partner rather than compromise.

In business relationships there are extreme challenges with competition, rivalry and jealousy. As with any other challenging aspect, this is powerful energy that should be channeled in a productive way so the energy can be put to Good use.

Again, keep in mind this aspect began in applying degrees on August 2, 2022, it is exact today, and will last in separating degrees until August 15, 2022.

It will be interesting to see how 6arack o6ama's 2022 Solar Return (August 4) and 6ill clinton's 2022 Solar Return (August 18) roll out for them. By the way, 6ill clinton's birthdate is August 19, but his Solar Return this year will be August 18.

I have long been wondering if 6ill clinton will be one who comes clean as we look at Leo against Leo, meaning 6ill vs. o6ama (both Leo's). I just have this in my head and it won't leave, but we will see. I just think it would be amazing and outrageously cool, if 6ill came clean and turned out to be a whistle-blower. As we have heard among social media circles, the first arrest will shock the world!

Folks, this is NOT a game that PRESIDENT Trump is going to lose, no matter what you see on TV, not matter what you feel, and no matter how impatient you grow at waiting for justice to occur. I know . . I said this and that . . and I still stand behind it. Things are not as they seem.

And so now it's time. The cages are rattled and the lions are restless. It is time to pick a side and stand shoulder-to-shoulder. You cannot hide yourself because your hidden self speaks volumes and others will notice that you have lost your voice, your nerve and your self-respect. It's time to speak up.

There is subversion with this Venus opposing Pluto aspect, which undermines power and authority. Remember, every single circle, group, collective has a Judas in their midst and the Judas's are about to be named. The bad people will not be satisfied until they have made themselves known. It's what bad people do best. They rat each other out.

SO, CALLING ALL LEOS . . . this is what you are here for, this is what you were made for, you were here to lead God's children. So here we are. LEAD!
