Slow-moving planets create long-lasting effects that can have a profound impact on our lives.(see vasudev's in depth post). Today's harmonious trine between permissive Jupiter and restrictive Saturn is the fifth and final occurrence in a series that began in 2007. We'd be wise to make use of this cosmic balancing act, for we can now create something that is able to withstand the tests of time. Additionally, the Sun's entry into farseeing Sagittarius offers an inspiring vision.

The Sun's entry into adventurous Sagittarius yesterday marks a turning point, for although the dark winter months are ahead, we now approach them with the aspirations of the Archer. We take aim at our distant goals and let go of the arrows of our thoughts as we move toward the hope of the holiday season. The Moon enters graceful Libra, reminding us to seek balance, especially as we face the extreme social and economic pressures of our times.
My rising sign is Sagittarius, and my Natal Moon Virgo, the energy I feel about me is good and optimistic with both desire to put "things" in order, and ready myself for the approaching New Moon on 27th.
I set my goals until the full Moon of my Solar return in July 2009.
New Years is not anything to me but New Moon as we approach the Winter Solstice, is! It is the time I look ahead and lay out what I would like to accomplish. It is my first House and addressing matters of Self become focus.
Have a great weekend!

This is a big day on Planet Earth for several reasons.
The primary one is that the third of three Jupiter-Saturn
flowing trines in earth signs during 2008 occurs at
0415 hours PST. The last two occured in January and
September. Don,t ignore this important and highly
favourable rapport between the largest two planets in
the solar system. In the morning and realistically all
day long, golden opportunities for a stunning forward
advance are available on the business, educational,
publishing, literary and scientific frons. Put extra
time and energy into making your professional stature
award-winning in quality.
The monthly Moon-Saturn union(0617 PST0 followed by
a harmonious Moon-Jupiter trine (0618 PST) can increase
the limklihood of you finding hidden riches on your
career track. Another significant change involves
the Sun entering fiery Saggitarius(1445 PST).
After 30 days of soul-searching and going through
various tests of endurance and stamina in often frosty
Scorpio, the solar orb is welcoming a new, 30 day
time period in which adventure, exploration,
philosophical discourse and a happy-go-lucky
disposition are more the rule than the exception.
Romance and key partnerships require delicate
handling today as Juno makes an abrasive, 45 degree
link to Neptune (0623 PST) while also making a more
stimulating and inspirational, 72 degree connection
to Uranus almost 12 hours later at 1829 PST.
Sun in Sagittarious would be more powerful since
its his friend Jupiter,s house. And also house of
Prudence, wisdom and strict disciplinarian rather
sticker to the righteous path.

The critical Virgo Moon accentuates our need to separate the facts from the fiction. But our real satisfaction depends on our ability to know what data will be the most useful. Information becomes more valuable when we can apply it in our everyday lives. The Moon's harmonious trine to sweet Venus at 1:46 pm EST softens our perceptions, making it harder to hold on to a clear perspective in these times when cool analysis is so desperately needed.
The intellect is keen during a Virgo Moon, and it likes useful work. You'll hit your groove doing something productive.

This Week's Calendar
sextile 
. This transit yields hopefulness, good will, and increased influence. It's favorable for marketing, publishing, and advertising, as well as any self-promotion activities. We may be especially sociable, tolerant, and generous. Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent. Some form of recognition or distinction is possible now.
trine 
. An original, unique approach to life is in order with this transit, and works to our benefit. Flexibility is the key to success at this time, and pleasant changes are in store. We may make some creative changes and discoveries, experiment with new possibilities, or invent a new way of doing things. This is a dynamic and exciting period, one in which taking advantage of unusual or unconventional opportunities may reap rewards.
sextile 
. We feel grounded and stable. It's easy to stick to a specific task and make headway. Productivity may be slow, but it's steady.
conjunct 
. This is an "all or nothing" energy. We have the power of attraction at our disposal. Things shouldn't be forced, even though the desire to sway, coerce, and manipulate others may be present. Passions are strong and intense. There is a tendency to want--and to demand--a lot from a partnership or friendship. This is a time when we can be focused and confident, especially when it comes to handling business and finances, as well as with regards to love and partnership.
sextile . We're open to new energies, approaches, and attitudes under this influence. Fortunate events occur as a direct result of our willingness to entertain the unusual and to think outside of the box. Favors group activities, financial endeavors associated with groups or organizational efforts, educational pursuits, writing, publishing, speaking, and humanitarian efforts. The outlook is positive and optimistic.
square 
. Concentrating on artistic or spiritual pursuits is better than focusing on things that require straightforward, factual thinking today. It can be difficult knowing where or how to direct your willpower under this influence. It's also a challenge knowing where you stand with others. Avoid such things as scheduling surgery, important appointments, job interviews, or launches of new projects at this time.
semi-square . "Suspicious minds" characterize this transit, although if we harness the energy, we can develop strategies to get to the bottom of any matter. Mistrust, investigations. Some level of mental stress and pressure. A troubled mind.

Hi all, it seems to me that the groups I visit are fairly quiet, and sometimes it feels like people are "lying low". For myself, there is very uncomfortable inner change going on, and I have the feeling that the less I say, the better off we will all be :) What is this time like for you? Thanks ~
Wishing you a very happy Solar Return. May the following year bring you joy, peace,love and the blessings of health.
The dramatic Leo Moon encourages us to express ourselves with a flair. A creative quintile between action-hero Mars and self-disciplined Saturn can restrain an impulsive thought long enough for it to mature into a worthwhile idea. The Moon's tough square to the Sun suggests that we could face a minor crisis today, forcing us to make a critical decision. Luckily, the Moon's entry into analytical Virgo at 8:13 pm EST helps us make the right choice.
