STAR WANDERINGS

Sun enters Libra on September 23, 2022, at 2:04 a.m. GMT. At this time, the Sun has arrived at the Fall Equinox, the critical moment on Sun´s journey - further descent into the darkness.   Libra is the autumnal, masculine domicile of Venus. Here the Goddess welcomes Saturn in her airy temple where he receives the highest honors. Traditionally, Sun represents the King, in our day and age, it is the archetype of a leader. Sun is in fall in the sign of Libra. The concept of dignities is often misinterpreted and it is rather shortsighted to dismiss „fall“ as inherently negative. Sun is „fallen“ in Libra. Does this mean that Sun in Libra native is a bad, failing leader? No, he is just a different kind of leader. He needs to work with particular resources, resources provided by Venus and Saturn. When we look at the signs of Sun´s domicile and exaltation where the archetype of a leader is at home, we would probably think that qualities like confidence, ambition, drive, passion, charisma a...

 I didn’t want to write about Mars. Having experienced my nasty share of Mars ingress into Gemini at the end of August, I was in no mood to promote him any further. “Just do your thing”, I told him, “we’ll go our separate ways…and nice try!”  On my way from work today, sitting in the tram, checking transits on my Astro Gold app, I noticed that Venus in Virgo is perfecting its square to Mars in Gemini. The next stop came around, the door opened and an angry drunk guy got in. He sat down in front of me. A moment later, he turned around and yelled at me "Do you have to sit next to me, you old cow?” I was in shock. Normally, I would get up and move away as far as possible from trouble like this, feeling really mad but staying quiet because “it is not worth it”.  Well, this time was different. I felt like being defiant. I stayed put and told him “to leave me alone” expecting he’s just gonna get even madder and hit me or something. A few minutes passed and he calmed down a bit....

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, “winged, double-bodied, harvest Maiden, angel caught in the material form”, right, but there is so much to do!!! OMG, I need a plan, I need to  sort out this massive heap and make sense of this all. As long as I get organized, I find a way. Let’s go! WAIT - what’s this? LOVE?! I don’t have time for this nonsense in the first place. Hmmm, all right, all right, maybe I can work this out, make it manageable somehow. Ok, he seems reasonable - maybe we can give it a try. We just need to make sure we don’t get out of control here. That's the last thing I need right now. He “enjoys our time together”, hmmm, interesting, he “loves me” - that’s nice. He “needs more affection”, “I seem a bit uptight”. What does he mean?! Let’s just be real here for a moment.  I sacrifice ALL this time that I could spend doing LOT more useful stuff, knocking things off my to-do list (YES!) than walking around, holding hands. This is waayyy out of my comfort zone already.  We...
