Asteroid Watch

Industria is now in Taursu direct motion (alibet slowly) so expect the ag/telecommunication debate to exist in a certain fashion, synthesis between the two is important to get beyond the immediete conflict and start a deeper peace.

Vesta holds itself in scorpios deep waters, square to neptune we are starting to feel friction and conflict betwen the expected and the desired, the solution is to achieve the expected to reveal a new layer of the desired. The approaching Vesta square to Saturn is placing vesta in a precarious situation, since Saturn is retro, a new method of action will have to take place to prevent drama from becoming unleashed. Saturn is also squared to industria (nearing an opposition to vesta and close to square to neptune). The coming oppsition between Saturn and Neptune can be observed in the details of the larger theatre expressed with industri and vesta. Hard work is starting to pay off, laziness and half done activities are not, but perhaps not the activiites that we were thinking of.

Pallas is conjunct to washingtonia in Aquarius with mercury backing up from behind, major talk about government action is at hand, stay focused on your topic as it may meander away from the central mode of activity. Chiron is in this cluster as well, so topics of heatlth care, medicare, medicaide, and other needs will have their spotlight. These topics are are all merging into one huge debate, watch out for manipulation.

Industria is back in Gemini, pushing for communication concerns to be addressed, mercury retrograde is slowing things down more than desired. However, this pesky little asteroid, that acts as a beacon of industrial endevours, is square to the sun, fresh into pisces. The Sun takes predominant authority over the situation but Industria is looking foreward to a clear
passageway through Gemini. With a conjunction to asteroid London (England has always been known for its factories) and an opposition to vesta (strikes and employment concerns are on top of someones mind right now), there could be some difficult moments of cultural understandings.


Juno and Hidalgo are still retrograde in Libra and Scorpio, Trined to the Sun there is activity and structure, and also change. Our ability to appreciate this is hampered by venus inconjunct to vesta, our commitment to work is stressed and put to the test, pushed to the limit, and kept in check and focus as things move foreward.

Speaking of moving foreward, mercury is not, the communicator is retrograde, ready to be conjunct to the sun, and is transversing his path back to Aquarius. the coming conjunction wil careate an air of active talking, but listenting will have toc come with effort, beware of echoes and throwing of th voice, it may create more difficult scenerios than intended.

All the buzz about mercury's impact on our travel plans has overpowered his conjunction with Washintonia, entering pisces. The Valarie Plame situation has come into being a very serious deal. Mars has pushed his way out of Capricorn and is very close to asteroid Union, The Union of the United States of America will be presented with a lot of aggressive energy in terms of its dissolution and its survival, but those who manage to stay still through the storm will prevail as teh ultimate winner and will come out on top with the most gain and least loss.

the Sun trines asteroid Hidalgo, housed in scorpio, hidalgo has a commanding presence, it is one that is difficult to discern at times but makes a connection to the wider concepts at hand once out of opposition to asteroid America. Once again, staying still is the best option, but hidalgo retrograde throws a very unpredictable return of karma into the mix, ignoring the hispanic desires plants the seeds of failure. the hidalgo inconjunct to venus promotes this but it will only be transient as venus will quickly move past.

Saturn opposes Pallas Athena placing restrictive energies on our intentions and long term plans, we are feeling the pressure on a daily basis, stay calm and let the energy pass you, now is not the time to aggressivly oppose anything or it could cause double the saturn difficulties.

double the retrograde, double the realiation, retrograde juno is trine to retrograde mercury and both bodies are starting to feel their places, but mercury is slowing down ready to go direct again, this will result in a restoration of truth instead of allowing for assumptions to rule the day. Before that happens on the 7th, teh 3rd of march will be energized with a lunar eclipse/full moon in virgo, emphasizing fairness for the physical worker. Appearances can be decieving when the moon inconjuncts venus during thsi full moon weekend,

Hispania conjuncts Pluto, union conjuncts Mars, and pallas athena is conjunct mercury stationary.

Pluto's new status as a dwarf planet might lessen the impact on Hispania, but the reality is that asteroid hispania is without a doubt going to have to adjust to some plutonian transformation taking place in the background, and the little details are going to matter.

Union conjunct Mars will result in the masculane effect on labor unions especially, the male part of a personal union will have its emphasis restored, and futehr more the energy of mars will resolidify teh reasoning for such unions to have taken place.

Mercury stationry and direct is causing all sorts of energy to find its place, moving away from Aquarius to begin with was a relief to many, but the return in retrograde to aquarius was a drain on peoples intellect, carrying the pisces water energy into the water bearer air sign is like watchign a cloud build in the dstance, Athena in this mix calls us to arms as we prepare to navigate the waters of pisces once again, watch out for mercury's speed as it may get to us after a while.

The solar center of Aries Sun is stubbornly inconjunct to asteroid Hidalgo in scorpio, which is retrograde at that. Activity is abuzz in terms of that which is of the hispanic world, and asteroid Hispania is into a Capricorn rush conjunct that intersting asteroid Lilith. A reality has been placed, and the hispanic woman is fully aware of it and is ready to indicate a truth that activates that reality.

Ateroid Ute is in a pleasing trine to asteroid America, American ideals and Ute psychology are working side by side to achieve something greater, although teh mars/neptune conjunction is making and breaking a few waves while this happens. All of this happens of course while the north node axis conjuncts Uranus (with asteroid Navajo in between) pitting our destiny, our focus, and our link to the earth and its planetary neighbors against our personal independence/dependence from/with whatever we see ourselves to be fit to be a part of.

normally I would leave this alone, but the sign positioning is very exact.

Hidalgo at 0'59" Scorpio retrograde is opposing the Sun at 0' Taurus. Signs aside (although that is a very interesting exactness of degrees) Hidalgo energies (the male hispanic) will be activated by the sun's central source in Taurus.

asteroid sphinx is conjunct to stationary saturn in Leo opposing chiron in Aquarius. innovations of health and physiology (Chiron) are going to be activated by a lack of restrictions (saturn station) while certain secrets (sphinx) will be revealed.

Juno opposes mercury, abuse of partnerships, obligations, and responsbility have come to a head, this is an aries/libra opposition that is close to ceres, food issues are a major topic at this point, don't take it too seriously though.

damocles

while I don't usually take this kind of situation too seriously, Damocles in Aquarius is opposing Saturn in Leo. First a look at Damocles.

Damocles has a very perpendicular orbit in relation to the solar system, visually available here, damocled asteroids are also unique in their very nature see this wikipedia entry for further information. The legend of Damocles involves Damocles, a courtier of the court of Dyonisius the II, switching places with his king for a night, the feast was wonderful and Damocles was flattered and pleased, until he saw that a sword was held above his head, this realization made Damocles think twice about fortune and royalty. the sword device has been named the sword of Damocles which indicates that peril and hazzard might befall those in leadership.

Damocles is currently in "positive number" declination but is currently between the orbits of neptuen and uranus (and gets very close to uranus). Since retrograde activity is actually an optical illusion from teh visual view of earth, Damoclese will be moving further away from Uranus ( damocles was closest to uranus in early 2002 for a reference point of personal lifestyle difficulties that thsi combination would create).

To be more level with the solar/Earth Jovian Axis than Saturn indiactes that the sword of damocles is hovering over the lord of time itself, tick tock tick tock, someone has lost their ability to claim authority over the situation. damocles is trine a retrograde jupiter, loss of money and loss of financial status is a strange situation for some, and the harnessing of such a grudge is a very masculane situaiton, but so is negotiation, and mars trine damoclese and trine to jupiter amplifies this reality as a nessecity.

The orbit of Damocles crosses within the inner solar system between earth and mars, the current location of damocles inidcates that its influecne over humanity is at its broadest.

waning from being the opposing factor of a black hole at 1 Sagittarius, here we see a strong force of energy relating to our needs to maintain our vehicles, but Phaethon itself continues to move forward and away from black hole aspects. now getting ready to finish the opposing hard-working Vesta, who may need to return to simpler concepts to make it work for them. Ceres is concentrated in Taurus, saturating the ground and making it fertile, although muddy on the surface, producing much produce and animal feed.

asteroid America has conjuncted mercury retrograde, and now we listen, but it may be too late to restore a previous grandeur of what we were only now trying to create, no longer valuable as depreciation of such ideas has made the topic plummet due to the placement and timing of such things. Now that the deconstruction of such things has occurred, the continual reminder of what has been happening in recent years, especially in terms of maturity in media, all fresh in the subconscious, and taking hold like super glue, revealing where the fear is. and America and Mercury conjoined make it even more subtle for the subconscious to perceive.

Sisyphus, which is the name of a god under eternal punishment, the asteroid is conjoined the degree of a Maser, in Leo. Masers were discovered in 1965, and proved that molecules could exist in space, proving that something was there when it was thought not to be, that is the truth, denouncing the truth in exchange for something else that is more convenient, that is the rock that is being pushed over and over again. big shifts are occurring that are making the leverage against this rock even harder to maintain, and Leo pertains to leadership positions especially during the day time, the sun in cancer will push Leo to work harder than ever before just to maintain a level of royal comfort that they are accustomed to (or choose to be accustomed to) all the while a subconscious understanding of the overall picture of things comes into the mind (all these subconscious things happening all at once, mercury retro returns us to true realizations).

in 6 months, Sisyphous has left leo and is now pushing the latter end of Libra, a strong teaching of trial and error is coming to a close, although the entrance into Scorpio brings that which deep and unrelenting into ourlives, now the boulder we push up the hill is covered with moss from the oceans crashing against our rocky shores.
