August departs,..

Hi again folks, well surely by now we are realising Astrologies simplest gift to us is that of forewarning. Without any deep analysis or what for, astrology keys us into the universal constant of cycles and phases. For every up there is a down, for every down an up. The basic lesson of maturity our parents instilled us with during our youth. Simple rhythm and to accept the good with the bad. So as such, in times like this August has presented us with, one has often to just sit and witness it all. Those who wish to loose their hairpieces over the turmoil, well watch the shock victims roll with the shock shall we, you want me to involve myself in that frivolity!? So yes, separating the wheat from the chaff is half the work in life. If this fundament is well taught, really, time, energy and resource are all saved for the good times and not wasted in the bad ones. Kind of like the federal reserve throwing all this QE money down the toilet and purporting to exercise decent values as it does so. As any well schooled adult will comply, this is obviously not the case, even if Caesar sayeth so.

So as such, lets assume we all had a spanky August, alternative arrangements really saved much of the day and yes, in some cases, simply leaving the boat on the shoreline could offer up more fortuitous options. A restaurant perhaps, or tourist destination?

To clear up here, what we have recently experienced is a planet passing by fulfilling the square arrangement currently being held in the sky by the larger slower moving planets. These being responsible for all the financial difficulties, earthquakes. Mars was that planet passing by. As Mars had entered Cancer, we dubbed it the boy in the water. Too we had Mercury turn apparently backwards in the skies which always brings a tooing and froing as witnessed off the coast of Ballito. A further note being that Mercury was opposite Neptune when it started its retrograde action. Neptune is the Greek lord of the Oceans, Poseidon.

What probably has made it all the more severe this time around, apart from the fact that Mercury was acting up in Virgo which has Jupiter and Pluto in Taurus and Capricorn at present, bring to the fore that wasted money pile again. Recall the mountain that blew up, the fact that our pile of money is indeed fiat cash and essentially loosing value daily. Hence the stock exchanges falling through the floor again. But yes the big factor i would say is the introversive one, honesty. There has been this massive wave of plying to the secretive realm of late, the pressures around really lend to one thing only, put up or shut it up.

As such the primary drive at present could be to own up to how you feel and to act accordingly. No not out of hand, but literally, roll a square wheel or roll your own wheel. Never forget the like of Clint Shuttleworth et al bred from our own stock. We all have what it takes to change the world and society forever, we just need the courage to stand by our convictions. Even though i'm not the most adored member of the general populace, i am still aware of my place and value. If i keep it simple stupid that is. So yes, in this wave of defeatism that is about, never give up really, simply wait, with conviction.

Attempting a new format via Martian phase to our natal Zodiac sign, lets see how this one rolls in time. All dates are roughly from 04 August through 19 September.

For Aries, great stress or activity in the home, even possibly violence. For Taurus its that new found foul mouth or transport issues. For Gemini its all about money money money. For Cancer, its about hiding in the closet. For Leos its a period of restraint or imprisonment. For Virgos, its their friends or associates who are at odds. For Librans, their career seems to be in the shadows. Scorpio and their long term thinking that could be introverting. Sagittarians could be experiencing deep trust issues. Capricorns partnerships have gone stone cold silent. Aquarian bodies are aching from injury. Piscean creativity and child issues.

So regards crises in general at present we can allude that for air signs it seems to be exposure oriented, for water signs, personal creativity oriented, for earth signs, communications oriented, for fire signs its trust issues.

Do take care, until next time, i'm just an email away.

Hi Folks, back to tracking the heavens as on earth. Currently a mercury retrograde on the go so as per usual traffic hell ensues as we have seen all sorts of transportation's experience hiccups if not outright fatalities over the period. The change in recent behaviour on the boys part is probably the most noticeable facet about at present,. The parading primadonna and the boy in the water. I call it the boy in the water for when Mars enters Cancer it is so often about the boy and his mother, a roller coaster of emotions ensues. This flood of water regularly puts out the flame of ones budding ego drives. So this is often the position of radical change, often against ones actual wants or will. As if the boy is pulled back into the womb and fights to separate once more. This is active in everyones life at present, the recent wave of strong emotions and the pull to introvert. Mercuries retrograde is opposite to Neptune so as such, there is long history involved and odds are just plain lies. Introversion is kind of like that, a dark art. Truth is light and when Mars wants to bathe in the dark, its dark he;'s after not light. So maybe wait a while before this poor fella surfaces again. For now, simple reassurance will do. The girls cannot act the way they do forever, all actions fall by the wayside in the scheme of time, so as such, all is dated, we are doomed to mature in one way or other.

Probably the biggest point to note at present then is the fact that this mars is passing the 4th point of the great square in the skies at present. So the one thing we know for sure, is that it all feels very cagey. All feels very close to home. Control is of the essence for the players at hand are actually large ones. So the fight, although it may seem to go to ones very root. In fact thats just the illusion and one can choose to play into it or not.

In all of this, no one said we had to do anything. If you have enough financial backing, no you needn't toil daily. Who says whats enough is enough!? So how much burden do we each essentially have to bear in life? Point is, if you want to shoulder the world, don't be offended if others hike on by. Your financial obligations are your story, no one else's. The fact that you cannot isolate your budget from those darn sales ads, are maturity vectors within your own being. If your value or esteem is weighted by societies directives, well you will seldom experience a truly peaceful nights rest.

So as we potentially head into the second round of our global credit fiasco, maybe think for a minute how all this is coming back to that morning you woke up and wondered which choice, a or b. Should you take the shiny option which comes with so many promises, including that of stress. Or the simpler more easy going option, the s-low road. As if we assume the unfolding augmented society has some appearance of normality, consider a second the children bewildered daily by their parents apparent freshly surprised anticipation at each and every passing event. Uncertainty stems forth as people know themselves less and less over time. Or maybe we should square up to our part in the degradation of the bio-sphere? No, not BP, your Hummer! Neither the many times previously bankrupt ABSA but your personal R5million home loan. The balls in our court, its the camera angle that changes and right now we are about to feel things from that very balls perspective for a while. Do take great care through the month of August.
