Anger in the Crosshairs

Overview:

This week there is a very obvious and challenging configuration of planets in the sky.  I suspect that the tension should start building this week and then maybe release over the weekend, possibly early into next week. 

In short, the impetuous and occasionally explosive Mars become the focal point of a t-square involving two other “malefic” planets, Saturn and Uranus.  This puts Mars that the focal point of two opposing and rather irreconcilable planets. 

Uranus represent tension building towards a new and innovative release, whereas Saturn represents tension locked in and sustained which gives structure and stability to a system.  Mars will be in the sign if its rulership (sidereally) of Scorpio; Saturn will be debilitated in sidereal Leo.  All the planets involved in this t-square are in very late degrees of their signs (29 degrees), which traditionally weaken the effects of the planets. 

The Sun is also involved and Venus makes minor hard aspects to all the planets this week, reinforcing the entire intensity of the configuration; you can see this visually in the chart posted here.  As an astute person also brought to my attention, a full moon will be occuring at this time forming technically a grand square, which is  considered to be very powerful.  

So while the planets themselves are very impactful in their effects, their placements may give the overall configuration a more subjective, internal experience.  This is not to say though that some will experience the full bodily effects if this t-square such as accidents, injuries, or conflicts; but I am inclined to think this will be mainly a conflict played out psychologically. 

Hopefully tensions will have cooled sufficiently on the India/Pakistan front, but there is no doubt that this part of the world (the soft underbelly of China and Russia) is going to be an area of contention in years to come. 

It wouldn’t be a stretch to assume that there will be more economic anxiety which causes turbulence in the markets.  The stage may be set for more austerities, bailouts, and countermeasures in the future.  Fear, of course, is a great tool for change; I mention this because I would be remiss to remind you that nothing happens completely by itself in the world. 

Things happen either by design, or the design itself takes advantage of the overall climate and cycles of the time.  Things happen also cumulatively, so nothing happens without some sort of foundational building a priori.  This is a key to understanding how the world really works.

Let me say also that what works for the movers and shakers of the world works also for you because you are your own mover and shaker; that is, you are if you don’t abdicate that role to someone else.  A lot of so-called problems and crisis’s become opportunities to make resolutions and determinations to take more charge of your personal life.  So that is the hidden message behind this week’s astrology.
