Daily Cosmic Calendar for September 14th

Just when it seemed that the cosmos was sick and tired of making the red planet Mars into a villain — as it did last Monday and Tuesday — now the fourth main rock from the Sun meanders into an off-kilter, 150-degree link-up with wounded-healer Chiron (1:32AM). Arguing with or tormenting a dear one with abusive language is bush league and responding to the lowest common denominator of this challenging alignment. Instead, think of a martial art you might want to learn or investigate the nutritional properties of various teas and herbs. If you want to fight and be a warrior, join a campaign for peaceful purposes or be a dynamic ambassador spreading goodwill around the globe.  Mercury is also showing signs of distress by making a contra-parallel with the Sun (3:04AM) while squaring Pluto (1:30PM). When Mercury becomes weak or compromised, communication channels are often temporarily blocked and you may need extra oomph and pizazz to get your points across. Stress may also be rising on the emotional front and with primary partnerships due to a square-off of 90-degrees afflicting Venus and Juno in fixed, power signs (1:52PM). Ouch! Feminine issues may seem too hot to handle for the time being. Don’t overdo a visit to the mall by going on a spending spree you might quickly regret.  In the meantime, a moderate rescue effort is being conducted by Mars and Uranus making a trine of 120-degrees in fire signs (1:58PM) just a few hours before the Moon and Sun make a similar trine in earth signs (4:18PM). Combine your intuition and common sense into a dynamic duo to get you out of troubled waters.  However, the last aspect by the Moon and Sun (4:18PM) begins a void lunar twilight zone that continues until 5:06AM tomorrow. Keep lingering worries at bay tonight and immerse yourself in a bestseller or film classic.  Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Daylight Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.
