The dark-of-the-moon vibrations — mentioned in yesterday’s calendar entry — are now even stronger. The over-arching theme throughout today is the need to finish recent enterprises on a high note without leaping headlong into new, bold plans. The void Moon in Leo that started yesterday morning ends at 3:45AM when the lunar orb enters earthy, meticulous Virgo. Clean-up campaigns, health and nutritional concerns, weeding the garden, perfecting talents and skills, and pursuing repair work are all in the spotlight each month when the Moon transits the sixth sign of the zodiac. However, psychic storm warnings are posted across the board today as often belligerent Mars forms a discordant contra-parallel with underworld-ruling Pluto (6:41AM), Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree tie with Saturn (2:43PM), Mercury parallels its higher-guardian planet Uranus (4:39PM), and Mars opposes Juno (8:53PM). Rocking any boats can lead to instant karma as well as interpersonal backlashes. Say no to egocentric arm-twisting maneuvers where you are playing a manipulative role out of character with who you know yourself to be on higher levels of reality. Being more of a hermit and reading, writing and delving into research projects may be an antidote to some of today’s celestial shenanigans.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for September 3rd
The dark-of-the-moon or Balsamic Phase of the Sun-Moon energy-field starts coming into play today and tomorrow as the next New Moon occurs on Thursday morning. When the Moon enters its extreme waning phase, physical vitality can decrease and there is a collective vibration that tunes people into completing ventures and enterprises that started around four weeks ago. Even though confusing, chaotic vibrations were more of the rule rather than the exception last night — due to Mars moving 150-degrees to Neptune — there is some improvement across the board this morning as the Moon in Leo approaches a supportive, 60-degree liaison with Venus in Libra (10:53AM). During the few hours just before this alignment becomes precise, you can soar like an eagle in the fine and graphic arts, on the social horizon or in romance. However, once the Moon and Venus consecrate their 60-degree connection at 10:53AM, the Moon enters a void twilight zone that lasts for 16+ hours until 3:45AM tomorrow. Despite the presence of the void Moon and the unsettled conditions that often result, the annual Sun-Chiron polarity takes place from Virgo to Pisces (12:15PM). Learn more about advances on the holistic healing and alternative medical fronts. Read up on the esoteric foundations of ancient civilizations and cultures the modern world has conveniently forgotten. Don’t be surprised if hidden feelings about childhood wounds and pains rise to surface. Deja vu experiences and mental telepathy are often on the upswing when the solar orb illuminates Chiron. Gear up for shocks to the system, surprises or unusual events coming out of left field as the Sun forms an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with radical-change agent Uranus (5:29PM). Stability and peace of mind can disappear when this type of celestial aspect is dominant. Watch out for waves of anxiety that may try to drown you in a fit of nervous tension. Focus attention on strengthening sisterhood ties as the Moon makes its monthly union with Vesta (10:26PM). Read more about economic markets and investment strategies.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, August 28th
Virgo has many crisis elements imbedded in its nature because it is stage 6 of a 12-step zodiacal process. Therefore, as this sign eventually morphs into Libra — the halfway point of the zodiacal circle — there is a need to eliminate personal non-essentials across the board as a kind of internal purification before beginning the more collective, universal process symbolized by the last six signs of the zodiac. Right now the Last Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (energizing 6 degrees of Virgo and Gemini at 2:36AM) arrives with a possible intention to stir up worries and turmoil in your mind — especially concerning dietary and health matters. Nevertheless, the key at any quarter moon cycle is to be strong-willed enough to cut through whatever apparent obstacles appear to be blocking your path ahead. And at the Last Quarter Sun-Moon square of 90-degrees, there can actually be a higher mental and even spiritual adjustment that needs to take place. Adding to today’s possible crisis environment is the arrival of the largest asteroid — Ceres — in Virgo (3:21AM) for the first time since its last transit here from early November 2008 to early August 2009. Many professional astrology researchers believe that Ceres — the ancient goddess of corn and cereals — shares, with Mercury, a co-rulership of the sign of Virgo. Through enormous amounts of research, this appears to be true and in a very deep, soulful manner. While Ceres entering Virgo this morning — a cycle lasting until November 3 — can be enormously supportive for mother-daughter relationships, food and nutritional matters, and for increasing production in your main fields of expertise, it can also be a catalyst for the difficulties in these same areas of life. Reading and research are also top priorities since Mercury trines Pluto (7:53AM) while Mercury also forms an illuminating parallel with the Sun (4:57PM). The several hours prior to a Moon-Venus trine in air signs (9:46PM) constitute a great boost for love bonds, the creative arts, and social activities. However, this Moon-Venus contact also starts a very long void lunar uncertainty cycle that lasts for 30+ hours until 4:34AM on Friday, August 30. (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.)
Daily Correspondence for Thursday, July 25th
Try to accomplish your key errands and plans in the early hours as the Moon in Pisces starts a long, 26+ hour void cycle at 11:44AM PDT that lasts until 2:30PM PDT tomorrow. Before the lunar orb enters its void uncertainty zone, communications — as well as literary and educational endeavors — are vitalized by a Sun-Mercury parallel (7:14AM PDT). Healing forces are back on the march — courtesy of the monthly union of the Moon with Chiron (9:21AM PDT). The hours building up to 11:44AM PDT are also highly favorable for a variety of discussions and correspondence as the Moon is approaching one of two, monthly trines to Mercury. However, once the void Moon condition takes hold at 11:44AM PDT, it makes sense to complete odd jobs and old projects rather than attempt to initiate bold, new enterprises. Enjoy time-outs for reflection and contemplation since the next two days will present a wide array of celestial challenges — including several discordant aspects by Venus as well as a tension-building Mars-Pluto opposition on Saturday that occurs only a few hours before the Sun squares Saturn. Immerse yourself in film or literary classics tonight that can carry you away to imaginative realms of fantasy and adventure.
