Astro-Weather: Week of Sept. 29-Oct. 5, 2010

By Guy Spiro

Wednesday, Sept. 29—Late Tuesday-night irritability will fade quickly in today’s early predawn, and the rest of the predawn is open. A major energy running through today is positive for all manner of new beginnings. Take a disciplined approach to any endeavor, but go for it in a big way. Aside from the major energy, the daytime through the early evening is open, but the later evening may include some irritability and argumentativeness. The late night contributes minor aggressiveness, so make good choices.

Thursday, Sept. 30—The high positive energy from yesterday will remain with us through today. Reread and be sure to make the most of it. Be aware of two more major energies. The first is high relationship and social energy. This should be primarily positive, but is easy to get carried away with. People will once again be proving to themselves that it is indeed possible to get too much of a good thing. The second is related to yesterday’s. This energy is very good for starting new projects involving authority, older people and traditional matters. Take a disciplined attitude, make sure all your ducks are in a row, and maybe make that approach to the boss or other authority figure. Be aware of a moon void of course period this morning running from 5:36 until 8:44, when the moon enters Cancer. At that point, the energy will shift noticeably, and general moods will tend to become more sensitive, protective and nurturing. Minor aspects are of little to no help through today, so good choices are going to be needed. Watch the late night for a period of potential for some very bad moods. Also, read ahead and apply tomorrow’s major energies through today.

Friday, Oct. 1—Be aware of six major energies today. They are all related and add up to several cautions. The first easily brings problems to communication and transportation where people become impatient, frustrated and aggressive. Be careful in traffic. The second can be good for looking within and coming to greater self-understanding. Light will be shed on all manner of things, and there will be much to learn. The third brings out the space cases. Watch for those overdoing recreational substances and the otherwise out-of-it. Both varieties will be out and about, behaving even more erratically than usual. The fourth stimulates a great deal of activity in communication and transportation, but easily leads to getting carried away, trying to say and do too much and making promises that can be difficult or even impossible to keep. The fifth brings problems to relationships with arguments and disputes that can easily get started and blow up all out of proportion. The sixth ties it all together as a repeat of the third in a slightly less potent form. All of this amounts to a perfect storm of caution. This will be a very active Friday night, but one to be very careful with.

Saturday, Oct. 2—Late Friday-night social situations are likely to run strongly into today’s predawn. Party people should be having a good time, except for those running afoul of the cautions. All of the high energy from yesterday will remain with us through today. Reread yesterday, and apply the cautions carefully. Remember to be especially careful in traffic. Today, be aware of two more major energies, both of them adding to the cautions. The first represents an excessive amount of energy that needs to be put to good use as it can easily go to the bad. Some people just will not know what to do with themselves, and mischief may ensue. The second is related to yesterday’s cautions and brings out the crazies. Watch for all manner of erratic and bizarre behavior, and if you meet someone who seems a sandwich short of a picnic, you can probably trust that first impression. This energy also brings problems to communication and transportation, especially where electricity and electronic media are involved. Do be aware of and work around the moon void of course period that runs from 10:20 this morning until 1:19 this afternoon when the moon enters Leo. At that point, the energy will lift noticeably, and general moods will tend to become more intense and concerned with self. Have fun tonight, but remember all of the cautions, and be careful.

Sunday, Oct. 3—Late Saturday-night party scenes will be highly energized through today’s predawn. Some minor aggressiveness may exist, but good moods should be dominant. High energy from the past two days will remain with us through today, so reread and apply the warnings carefully. Be aware of five more major energies today. The first indicates a shift in thinking and communication patterns toward a more balanced and concerned-with-fairness mode. This is Mercury entering Libra this morning. The second is good for making new beginnings in relationships. Make a positive gesture in an appropriate situation. The third is a repeat of yesterday’s second cautionary energy, and it extends the cautions all the way back to Friday on through today. Reread those two days, and apply the warnings carefully. The fourth adds more cautionary energy to the mix. Be very careful of sudden erratic violence, freak accidents and electrical fires. Problems can pop up unexpectedly in unusual places and ways. The fifth is again related to the cautions of the past two days, and this can be the last straw for some people. Watch for those who just plain get enough and can’t resist acting out. Try not to be one of them, as consequences can be harsher and longer lasting than usual. Count to 10, then count to 10 again. Minor energies are of little to no help through most of the day, and wise choices will be needed.

Monday, Oct. 4—The high cautionary energy from yesterday will remain with us through today. Reread and apply very carefully. The fourth and fifth from yesterday will be the strongest of the holdovers. Be aware of three more major energies today. The first brings out the space cases. Watch for those overdoing recreational substances and the otherwise out-of-it, who will be out and about. Spaciness and confusion can easily occur in any context. Be especially careful with authority figures who may not have themselves together and may find it expedient to blame you. The second continues and extends the string of cautionary energy for communication and transportation that started last Friday. This little gem easily leads to the exposure of secrets. Guard yours, and keep the eyes and ears open, as there will be much to learn. There is likely to be a much higher incidence of just plain nasty attitudes and smart-mouth-itis. Be very careful in traffic. Let the little things go, and give no single-finger salutes. The third stimulates problems in relationships with erratic and even bizarre behavior. Watch for sudden, unrealistic and unreasonable demands for change. Damage control. If all of that isn’t enough to give you a case of the Mondays, then also be aware that the moon will be void of course from 8:51 this morning until 2:59 this afternoon when it enters Virgo. At that point, the energy will lift, and general moods will tend to be more discerning and concerned with detail. Choices.

Tuesday, Oct. 5—The high cautionary energy from yesterday will remain in effect through today. The period of problem energy in various forms for communication and transportation will finally start to fade out, but many will still be caught up in it, and many more will be dealing with fallout from it. The relationship energy will be more prominent, so reread yesterday and apply those warnings carefully. Aside from major energy, there may be some minor irritability in the early to mid predawn, but that will pass quickly to be followed by better moods. Take a disciplined approach through the rest of the predawn. Moods will be most positive from the mid-morning through the midday. Make good use of that period. A bit of a downturn may occur in the mid to late afternoon with some minor erratic emotional responses and hard attitudes. The rest of the afternoon is open. Take a communicative and disciplined approach through the evening and the late night. Relax and enjoy yourself as things settle down after these past few days.
