While we're making our way through the sign of Aquarius we'll all take on the traits of the Aquarian people.
However, the Moon will be weak and slow today, and that means that we're all going to be weak and slow too.
That's because the Moon has grown smaller and smaller in the sky since it was Full two weeks ago, and the smaller the Moon gets, the less intense it becomes and the less energy it has to stir up the magnetic currents of the other planets as we pass them by.
And that means that we're going to be a little bit less Aquarian than we'd normally be if the Moon was going full speed ahead through the sign of Aquarius.
But actually we should thank our lucky stars that the Moon planned in advance to be weak and slow at this particular point in planetary history, because tomorrow we'll have two very serious, intense planets making some changes in their orbits, and if the Moon were moving faster and more intent on stirring up these powerful planet's magnetic currents, there's no telling what catastrophe's would befall us.
Because the two planets in question are among the meanest and orneriest planets in the solar system, and capable of great destruction.
So actually it's nice of the Moon to plan a weak moment so that these two strong planets don't get agitated anymore than necessary while they're maneuvering their way through the solar system.
Overnight tonight the Moon will make it's way into the emotional water sign of Pisces.
And that means that as we go through the day today, we'll start out in the air sign of Aquarius, and the element of air rules our intellect and that means that we'll all be mentally alert and full of creative new ideas.
But as the day progresses, the emotional vibrations of the Piscean energy is going to begin creeping into our consciousness and we'll go from "thinking" to "feeling".
And that means that whatever we're "thinking" about during the early part of the day is what we'll tend to "feel" and express emotionally later in the day.
So it may be helpful to all of us if we try to keep our thoughts happy and optimistic early in the day so that our evening will be happy and optimistic too.
Otherwise, if we have grumpy thoughts early in the day, we'll tend to act out our grumpiness later in the day and it could create tension in our human relationships.
But that's not all.
Overnight tonight while the Moon is making it's way into the sign of Pisces, it's going to run out of gas and go completely dark.
In the old days when superstition ran rampant in the world, people called the dark Moon; the Devil Moon or the Black Moon.
That's because they thought that anything that was weird up in the sky meant that weird things would happen on earth.
So when the Moon went dark at the very tail end of the Full Moon cycle they thought that it was a time when the Devil came out and got people because he could sneak up on them easier in the dark.
So they expected bad things to happen and scare them in the night.
Well, overnight tonight we may just get a chance to test the theory behind the ancient people's superstitions, because overnight tonight when the Moon goes dark, we're going to have some very scary things taking place in the skies above our heads, and when we wake up with the Moon in Pisces tomorrow morning our world will be different.
Our angry, aggressive, violent planet Mars, the God of War, has been speeding through the sign of Libra in the seventh house for the past few months.
But overnight tonight he's going to get a little to close to the magnetic currents of our mean old man, sudden death planet Saturn, who's been speeding along through the sign of Scorpio in the eighth house.
Mars may be the fastest of the two planets, but Saturn is the deadliest.
And when Saturn looks into his rearview mirror and sees Mars bearing down on him he's going to turn around and start chasing Mars, and of course Mars is going to flee.
So both of these planets are going to appear to us on earth to be moving backwards in their orbits, which in astrology is called a retrograde motion.
In reality they're both slowing down in their orbits, but because the Earth will maintain it's normal speed, it will appear to us that they are indeed backing up in the sky.
When planets change houses, signs or slow down or speed up in their orbits, they create major changes for the inhabitants of the earth and chaos and disorder follows.
Mars is the planet that gives us our forward momentum.
Mars allows us to walk directly down the street.
But when Mars slows down in his orbit, he makes us wobble down the street, so it appears that we're swaying from one side of the sidewalk to the other.
That may be okay for humans, but when Mars slows down in his orbit, he loses some control of his forward momentum.
And that means that we're going to lose some of our forward momentum too.
It will cause us to aim at one thing and hit another.
Or it may cause us to go to the kitchen to fix dinner and get caught up in redecorating the kitchen instead.
And that means chaos. People will start out on one mission and end up doing something else altogether.
And Mars is going to be moving backward until late May, which is a very long time to have to live with scattered energy.
Not only that but Mars is a very angry, fiery, aggressive and explosive planet, and that means that if we intend to light a match to start a fire in a fire pit, the fire on our match may jump to our house instead of our pit and burn the house down.
So this angry, aggressive, scattered Mars energy may cause us to be angry at one person, and beat up another.
It may cause us to start off in one direction and end up someplace else altogether.
So our Mars retrograde until late May is going to cause all kinds of chaos on the planet and in people's personal lives.
And our mean old man, sudden death planet Saturn taking on a retrograde motion at the very same moment is going to cause even more chaos.
That's because it's Saturn's job to kill people unexpectedly.
Well someone's got to do it. We can't all die slowly.
But, Saturn may have his eyes on one person, but mistakenly take the one standing next to them by mistake.
That means that soldiers and cops may be shooting at one criminal, but hit an innocent bystander instead.
And Saturn will be retrograde until late July, and that's a long time to have to live with these two destructive planets creating unlimited trouble for all of us.
These two planets, Mr. Death, and Mr. War slowing down in their orbit at the same times spells disaster after disaster for the people of the earth.
And that means that as we go through the day today, we may have to endure the beginnings of this chaos, but tomorrow we may have even more trouble on our hands.
Mars will be retrograde in an air sign, which means chaotic winds, and a lot of problems for airports, as well as the airline and space industries for many months.
And Saturn will be retrograde in a water sign, which means that water is going to be our enemy until late July.
So the wind and water will be completely unpredictable for some time to come.
We may think we know which way the wind is blowing, and where the water should be going, but we may all be surprised when they both become dangerous and unpredictable.
So we're heading into a time of chaos that will last until mid-summer.
So if we think we've had a hard winter, well, it's only going to get worse.
Because both planets are dangerous when they're moving at their normal speed, when they're agitated by a retrograde it's going make them even more dangerous to all living things on earth.
Because there's no telling what people are going to say or do.
Even when they promise with their whole heart to do or say one thing, Mars will scatter their energies and Saturn will turn on them and make them mean
So we can't expect people to get to the point or get things done.
I had a dream last night, and in the dream I was looking out the window and I saw just about everyone on the block come out of their houses and start looking around. It seems that they were surprised, and it was like all the power had gone out or something because the people appeared to be checking to see if everyone else was having the same trouble they were having. I wasn't sure if it was a local power outage or more wide spread, and I wasn't even sure that it was a power outage. It may have been an explosion or an economic collapse, but everyone seemed to have the same shocked looks on their faces. And I wasn't even sure if it was local or world wide, but it was apparent that the people were very worried about something.
We are teaching the Tarot along with Astrology by pulling two cards out of our Rider Waite Tarot deck each day and applying the cards to our current Moon transit.
Today our two Tarot cards are The Hermit reversed, and the Three of Wands reversed.
The suit of the Wands represents our work and business life as well as our mental pursuits like education, analysis, writing, and speaking.
When our wands are upright we are mentally stable and alert, and when our wants are reversed it means that we many be mentally scattered.
If we look at The Hermit card upright we'll see some sort of Holy Man holding up a lantern to guide us along our path, but when we reverse The Hermit card it indicates that we're not interested in taking other people's advice.
And, if we look at our Three of Wands upright we'll see a person standing there looking off into the distance wondering about going off in new directions, but when we reverse the Three of Wands it indicates that it's not possible for us to expand right now because things keep coming up that prevents us from making progress.
So, on the one hand The Hermit reversed is telling us that we feel that we can go it alone and we don't need any advice from anyone else right now, but on the other hand it seems that we aren't making any progress on our own either.
So our cards are telling us that perhaps it's time to get some expert advice, or at least the opinion of someone we trust so that we can see where we're going wrong and fix it so that we can make better progress with our endeavors.
And with the Moon in Aquarius right now, it would be a very good time to consult someone who is capable of guiding us, because the Aquarian energy is a good energy for people helping people in a very sincere way.
