‘may be’ erratic

basketball game against Purdue University in Bloomington on 2/23/85. The
incident was part of a tirade which earned Knight three successive technical
fouls and expulsion from the game. (AP Photo)

There is another pic I won’t post of Knight grabbing player Neil Reed’s throat.  In the same article, reports of Knight choking and punching sports information director, Kit Klingelhofer, in the 1970’s over a news release that upset the coach.

Whoa.  Mercury (communication) in Scorpio (intense power) conjunct ASC (1st house is your style) opposition rebellious Uranus in the 7th (relationships with others).  Jupiter (wants to expand) tightly conjunct Saturn (wants to constrict) in the sign of the bull.   Not to mention some serious squares to Moon (emotions) and Mars quincunx (stressful adjustment) Saturn /Jupiter and semi-square (friction) that radical Uranus.   eep.
I’ll be at home watching from the couch, thanks.

Virgo in the 10th (career) and hey, let’s face it…Virgos are perfectionists.

Legendary coach…here’s the wiki blurb:
Among his greatest achievements are multiple NCAA and NIT championships, but he has had international success as well. In 1979, he took the U.S. Pan American team to a gold medal in Puerto Rico. Knight is known for an almost uncanny ability to extract the full potential from his players, and he is proud of their high graduation rate. He is his own man, with high principles, expectations and demands. Not afraid of controversy, he often uses profanity to make his point and exercises an impressive temper. He has a great ability to teach young men both the game of basketball and the game of life, and in May 1991, he was inducted into the National Basketball Hall of Fame.

…my hands are dirty too…

7. Made it through six whole posts before mentioning STAR WARS.
What took so long..?
Waiting for the spiritual number 7 to roll up.

Okay. Here’s the deal.
STAR WARS CHANGED MY LIFE.

Today I noticed Harrison Ford and I have some similarites….besides being charming rascals.  *wink*
We are both number 9 Life path.  Nines are compassionate humanitarians; dreamers here to serve the world and they are often in the spotlight – like it or not.  Nine is aligned with the planet Neptune and the water triad (Cancer/Scorpio/Pisces).  It is the number of completion, it carries the vibration of all the other numbers before it, and is a literal saturation point.

We are also a Birth Day number 4.  Fours are structured, the squares, conservative, logical.  Fours are aligned with the planet Saturn and the earth triad (Taurus/Virgo/Capricorn).  It is the number of building, organization, crystallization in the physical universe.

I was reading Glynis Has Your Number and I was intrigued by the comment that Harrison seems uncomfortable during interviews because 4/9 are numbers at odds with each other.  I have seen Harrisons chart before and remember noting that he seems very shy considering he has a chart with every single planet above the horizon.  Many planets above the horizon is indicative of extroversion, so what gives..?  First thing I am thinking is..’how’s that Neptune doin’ ?’

So first off, Neptune most highly aspected (private/ hidden), four planets in Cancer (private), including Mercury the talker (silent type here).  He most probably thinks he should (square- inner conflict) be talking more (Mercury- thinks, talks) about his films (Neptune is film) but revealing personal stuff is not for him.   So the extrovert placements of planets above the horizon is offset by the Cardinal Water chart.

Next time I’ll go into the wookies chart— one would think Very Earthy.
Not so.

ALL FIRE !
*snort*

Here comes the Sun

Do you know where your guiding planet is ?
heh…out late with a bad boy again ?!

It is the planet that rises before the Sun in your chart.  Also called oriental, it will be to the right of the Sun on the wheel going clock-wise.  This planet shows skills you have, a guiding factor in your life, talents further defined by what aspects it makes in your chart.

Moon= intuition, sensitivity to ‘the flow’, can multi-task well
Mercury= flair for communication, speaking, learning
Venus= artistry, loving, peacemaker
Mars= force of will, problem-solving, taking action
Jupiter= philosopher, big ideas, executive leaders
Saturn= perseverance, building, concentration
Uranus= revolutionaries, rebels, innovators
Neptune= Musical, abstracts, mysticism, healing visionaries
Pluto= penetrating mind, powerful charisma, research

I have Uranus oriental Sun 4 degrees, conjunct Pluto 5 degrees.  I’m a bohemian; a bit eccentric with a talent for astrology (Uranus rules astrolgy) and a fascination with magnetics and science.   How does your guiding planet reflect your talents..?

MOooooOO0n

…………….OoOooOo………………

What phase of the moon were you born under ?  Each phase will have a different energy, and will manifest different qualites.  To find your moon phase, click under Astrology on ‘NASA Moon Phases’ and scroll until you find your month and year.

La luna spends about 2 days in each sign of the zodiac making a circle around the wheel of life in approximately 27.33 days.

……………………………………….OoOooOooO…………….

New Moon= new beginnings, instinctual re-birthing
Cresent= breakthrough, formation of future through the past
First Quarter= active pioneers, here to change things
Gibbous= need to perfect, analytical, learning truth
Full Moon= completion, exploring ideas/relationships/goals
Disseminating= distribution of knowledge, communicators
Last Quarter= re-examination of self, contemplation
Balsamic= quiet visionaries, loners, distilled wisdom

I was born under a disseminating moon in Taurus.  Moon is exalted in Toro, so I’m all about the senses…soft fabrics, incense, essential oils, massages, quiet nights, food has to be crispy, al dente, whatever.  Find the pea in the Princess bed ? *Snap !*  lol.  Taurus rules the throat and I am a singer, and obviously communicating – ta da ! (waves)  Moon is in my 4th so love of home and gardening, quiet, intuitive.
How about you and your moon…how does it work in your chart…?

Morph

Fun Times !
Outer planet heavies in a tug-o-war and an eclipse to boot.
Mosh pit !
(go to Neptunes and click on the Marley show for instant good vibe infusion)

Oppositions are screaming what the hell is the other guy doing to me~
Squares are the thoughts ping-ponging in the brain saying what the hell am I doing to myself~
?
Transforming.  That’s what.
Eclipses mark energy shifts lasting over over several days or months– felt by you, me and everyone else twirling around on the planet…so keep smiling folks, be kind to your neighbors.  Keep it together.

Partial solar eclipse July 1st at 9 degrees Cancer; thrusting the house where it lives in your chart, and Capricorn its opposite into the spotlight of change.  Cancer is home, family roots, your haven / Capricorn is career, goals, status.  In my case Capricorn 1st/ Cancer 7th house, so my personal identity (1st) and relationships with others (7th) are getting the eclipse spotlight.
We are also under the outer planet heavy Pluto (power struggle) squaring both Saturn ( the brakes ) and Uranus ( the gas).
The eclipse point where both luminaries : Sun/ego – Moon/instinct are squaring both Uranus and Saturn.  Saturn is opposite Uranus.  This is the captain speaking; we are experiencing a little turbulence, no moving about the cabin, know your exits.   Other planets in your natal chart in geometric aspect get *pinged* and activated as well.  So if you are feeling a bit snippy, stressed or lacking sleep…it will pass.

Feeling it in your life..?  Formulate your best intentions for the coming increasing moon as it waxes to full.  Hang loose and let things happen organically…may be a good time to take a deep breath before any big decisions.

You can click on Astrodienst to get your chart, and find out where the eclipse falls for you, or contact me gneissmoon@rocketmail.com.   Happy Eclipsing !

*Edit : had stomach issues (nausea) night of eclipse, and read others with Cancer (rules stomach) on ASC/DC did as well.   How did you feel during the eclipse ?

Saturn day

Emmylou – I just love to hear her sing…
She’s an Aries with Cancer rising which means her chart ruler is Moon.  It is strongly placed for a singer in the 2nd house the natural house of Taurus which rules the throat.

Interestingly, Saturn (time, grey hair) is in her 1st house of ‘how you look’ conjunct Ascendant in Leo (hair, mane), and she started turning prematurely grey in her early 20’s.

Neptune (compassion, the hidden) trine Uranus (committment to human rights) in the 11th (Uranus squares Mars landmines) both Uranus and Neptune are placed in air signs (communication) which shows her work through her music in removing landmines world-wide.  http://www.emmylou.net/jam.html

Moon in Virgo (pets) and yes, Emmylou is a PETA supporter.   Emmylou has Venus (love, art) Mercury  (communication) and Mars (action) all in Pisces (spiritual healers) showing her grassroots activism in improving the world for all of us.

Emmylou has expansive Jupiter in Scorpio as focal planet of a T-square with Moon in Virgo and Venus in Pisces – she is an exceptional singer / songwriter (Venus/Pisces)who has collaborated with many talented friends (Venus) through the years.  She has recorded and jammed just about everyone in Nashville.

This post is for my Capricorn Dad, on Father’s day, and my former husband, Eric.  My Dad and I had our Saturns conjunct, while Eric gives my Saturn his lucky Jupiter.

When negative is good

Trail 3 / 9

Ions
Positive and negative ions -electrical charges- surround us, in the air molecules we breathe.
With each breath we take, ions flow into our lungs then enter our bloodstream, then each cell in our body.

Positive ions frequent closed places lacking airflow, and will cause serotonin levels to increase. High levels of serotonin can trigger migraines, increased blood pressure, aggression, asthma attacks, and create nervous tension.

Negative ions carry electrical energy and are present when lightning strikes, after a rainstorm, near waterfalls, evergreens, fire and ocean surf, to name a few.  Negative ions help oxygen reach our cells faster and stimulate resistance to disease.  Air-borne bacteria decreases with higher levels of negative ions, plants grow stronger, faster, and humans feel more mentally relaxed.

Housewitchery
Sage emits negative ions – so burn or ‘smudge’ with a sage bundle to remove positive ions from your aura and your home.  If the smoke the bundle emits is thick and rolling, there is an overabundance of positive ions and the sage burns more.  Smudge the sage, paying particular attention to closets, drawers and corners.  Work clockwise through the home, finish near a window or door you can open to let negative energies escape.  Close the door or window and let the sage bundle rest, it will go out by itself when the ceremony is complete.

The next time you breathe your ‘air vitamins’, remember this negative post and feel the good vibes !
