Planet Waves FM | Libra New Moon, and the Harvey Weinstein Mess

Tonight’s Planet Waves FM [play episode here] starts off with astrology, though it ends somewhere else. Eric begins with a discussion of the Libra New Moon [view chart here], which is a rather exciting specimen: it’s exactly opposite Uranus, the planet of invention and revolution. It’s also making a beautiful shape with centaur Pholus and the Galactic Core. Eric also talks about the revelations concerning Harvey Weinstein, and discusses meeting Amy Goodman last week.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 18
(The Day of Personal Leadership) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Today’s Moon-Venus conjunction on your birthday is encouraging you to show the world your beauty, and to love with an open heart. You don’t need to save your affection for someone special. Love everyone and everything, and let the good vibes roll. If you go light on expectations, that’s celebrating true freedom, which will radiate into your life many other ways.

Written in the Planets
Do you need to negotiate or finalize any business dealings? Today’s conjunction between Mercury and Jupiter should be favorable for that, offering both the broad view and an unusual level of shrewdness and depth of understanding. If you need to dive deep into any subject matter, this astrology should let you slide right in. In dealing with others, notice where your level of patience and compassion are; feeling like you have none left could be a sign that it’s time to shift your perspective. Letting your heart lead is one way to rise above the level of criticism and power (or defensiveness), and to allow something larger to help you be humane. Ask the universe for that assistance if you need it.

The sheer acknowledgment that as a Libra I need balance, beauty and aesthetics in my life to make me tick on, balanced, in my day-to-day endeavors and consequently some very huge endeavors for the year was just what I needed to keep going.

This Week’s Horoscope for Libra by Eric Francis Coppolino

It’s been a while since Venus was in your sign. Though much else is buzzing around your solar chart for the next few days (for example, many alignments between planets in Libra and those in other signs, particularly Aries), you now have something helpful and special and beautiful: the goddess herself, sitting with you taking tea right on the front porch. My take on Venus is that this planet accounts for those with many talents. When you meet someone who can do ten different things beautifully, you will usually find a well-aspected Venus. And this you now have, positioned in your chart where you can have direct access to it, and let those gifts you have shine out. Just one caveat, one potential fly in the ointment: be careful not to feel like a victim of the work that you do. In other words, if you’re a gifted person and your current job does not allow you to express yourself, deal with that directly. Do what you can — and plot your way out of that situation now.

You may read all 12 signs here.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 17
(The Day of Precarious Balance) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Understand the ways you’ve been hurt in the past and you can set yourself free from them, and experience a whole new life. This is a process of self-discovery, which requires an unusual depth of honesty with yourself. Once you get the hang of that, you’ll discover there’s no turning back. As a great philosopher once said, an unexamined life is not worth living.

Written in the Planets
Today’s move of Mercury into Scorpio puts the planet of the mind and communication into a very intuitive sign. But that also comes with a reminder to use carefully what you intuit, perceive or dig up — for the highest good of all. Mercury in Scorpio can get secretive at one extreme, and sharp or critical at the other extreme. Notice if you find yourself defaulting into one of those modes. The Moon moving into Libra could help smooth things out, at least on the surface, especially as it sails past Venus. Speaking of Venus in early Libra: what is the story or logic of how your current relationship balance came to be the way it is? Let Mercury help you uncover its deepest roots.

On Thursday, there will be a Full Moon closely opposite Uranus, invoking the infamous Uranus-Eris conjunction of last year. This article by Eric is one that perhaps cannot be re-read enough. Written on the day of the first Uranus-Eris conjunction, it explores the astrology of that profound moment through its direct expression in the present environment.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 16
(The Day of Essential Judgment) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Forces outside your control may seem to be guiding your relationships, though if you would turn your attention within yourself, you’ll see how your desires are driving everything. The way to change what you’re getting is to change what you want, though first you need to figure out what that is. Herein lies the beauty of the journey, and the game.

Written in the Planets
Today the Sun, Saturn and Eris all make contact with one another. This could draw attention to the similarities between apparently different social pressures, such as to conform versus to perform. That is, whether you’re being asked to exaggerate or show off certain qualities, or to suppress them, it comes to the same thing: preventing you from being freely and authentically yourself. Honesty is powerful; that’s why many people are so afraid of it. You might try it out regardless.

Len Wallick | What the World Needs Now

Venus has two astrological dominions where its expression as love, among other attributes, is potentially strongest: Taurus and Libra.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 15
(The Day of the World’s Stage) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Once you learn to temper your perfectionism, you’ll raise the quality of all that you do, and you’ll feel better. Perfection is not a value. Self-improvement is as much about integrity as it is about blue jeans going through the wash 100 times. Strive for experience, aspire to be a student of life, and remember that a happy, sincere student does not feel guilty about learning.

Written in the Planets
Aspects by Mercury and Mars are suggestive of inspiration, but also a possible volatility. If you find yourself getting frustrated or stuck on the edge of an idea, try to work off some energy in a constructive way; you may well find the snag begins to unravel itself. Practice patience and determination, and try to resist any sense that results should appear immediately. Rarely are the greatest or worthiest achievements quick or easy; excellence comes with time and effort.

Planet Waves Daily Oracle for Oct. 14, 2017
Today’s Oracle takes us to the Sagittarius weekly for June 13, 2008.

You are taking the final steps toward completing a long stage of your life: a time of visioning and of manifestation; of widening your horizons and deepening them. This process is not over, if only because you learned it so well that in effect you became it. What is changing in this particular year is the need to connect your new visions with corresponding changes to the fundamental structure of your life, which you’ve no doubt had a taste of in the past two or three seasons. What you have started in this respect will continue — it’s as if the physical rearrangements you’re involved with have taken on a life of their own. Now, one last dimension of your visioning process needs to be refined. Don’t be afraid to change your plans, be they in your mind or on paper. Adjustments you make today will save you enormous work and expense in the future, and work to everyone’s profit.

The Oracle is a daily mini-reading divined from our extensive Horoscope Archive. You can research any Planet Waves horoscope published since 1999 at the Horoscope Archive and Oracle.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 14
(The Day of Moderation) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
The Libra planet Venus enters your sign on your birth anniversary, which is a reminder that you can only be who you truly are. You might take as your motto, “I am the one I want to be,” and strive to understand, connect to and express yourself in every way. As you proceed, you’ll have the feeling of unraveling a mystery and gaining confidence at the same time.

Written in the Planets
Today when Venus enters Libra — the sign of relationships and balance — it opposes the object Salacia in Aries. Although oppositions are often confrontations, they can also be negotiations — or even dances. In myth, Salacia was a goddess of calm seas who, after hiding, willingly married Neptune — after he sent a dolphin to speak to her on his behalf. What does this mean for you today? One thought is that the calmer your inner “sea” of Self is (Aries), the easier it is to relate to others and come to mutual agreements. Even if the conversation begins with a little hide-and-seek. You might also keep an eye (or ear) out for unlikely messengers. What they have to say could be just what you need to hear to negotiate even more harmoniously than you already are.

“I write from instinct, from inexplicable sparkle. I don’t know why I’m writing what I’m writing. Usually, I sit and I let my hands wander on my guitar. And I sing anything. I play anything. And I wait till I come across a pleasing accident. Then I start to develop it. Once you take a piece of musical information, there are certain implications that it automatically contains — the implication of that phrase elongated, contracted, or inverted or in another time signature. So you start with an impulse and go to what your ear likes.”

Harbinger of the Future: Jupiter in Scorpio

Dear Friend and Reader:

Today I’ve got some news for you about Jupiter in Scorpio, a one-year transit that began this week. But first, I have a call to action.

The world is in crisis. We are seeing the effects of global warming manifest before our eyes: as successive hurricanes pounding coastlines and inland areas; as rising sea levels; as droughts followed by massive fires that are brought on by complex groups of conditions that all come back to the planet heating up.

Teaching and learning at Esalen Institute.

There is political crisis from the top to the bottom of society, most of it rooted in greed and lying; there’s a sexual crisis that has belched into the news, and once again, only because it’s happening in the entertainment industry and we recognize the names involved.

News outlets that could be helpful are too busy selling us drugs and luxury cars to care very much.

There’s a spiritual crisis — of meaning, of the value of human life or any life, and of the value of existence itself. There’s a mental health crisis — also related to meaning, and many factors that are driving people insane. There is economic crisis, health crisis, social crisis: it’s all the same thing with many different names.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 13
(The Day of the Tough Cookie) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You seem to be a step ahead of yourself, though you might want to slow down a little and let events develop before taking action. You know what direction you’re headed, though over the next few seasons, additional information will come to light, and you will have opportunities you were not expecting. So take things gently; the future comes upon us fast enough.

Written in the Planets
With Mercury and Uranus preparing to send out some mental sparks tomorrow, today’s transition of Venus into Libra should offer some emotional stability. Look for the beautiful solution to any curveballs you get thrown; that is, the thing that feels elegant, balanced, in harmony or simply fair. This is not the same as pretending to go along with what others want just for the sake of avoiding a disagreement. It’s about hearing the music in the phrase, “both and” — or knowing that when you allow space for a third option, that is often the point at which all others meet in creative ways.

As always, your reading is spot on and validates what I am experiencing in life at this time. The sheer acknowledgment that as a Libra I need balance, beauty and aesthetics in my life to make me tick on, balanced, in my day-to-day endeavors and consequently some very huge endeavors for the year was just what I needed to keep going.

“I recall your smile, and for me it is limpid water
witnessed by chance among the stones of a riverbed.
slight mirror in which you see an ivy and its inflorescence,
and over all the embrace of a serene white sky.
This is my recollection; I cannot say, O distant one,
if an ingenuous spirit is freely expressed in your face,
truly you are a wanderer whom the world’s ills exhaust,
and who carry your suffering with you like a talisman.
But this I may say; that your thoughtful portrait
drowns anxious inspiration in a wave of calm;
and your aspect insinuates itself in grey memory
pure as the crown of a youthful palm-tree…”
— Eugenio Montale

Len Wallick | Unmentionable

Fair warning: Len Wallick refers to what would normally be something unmentionable in today’s column. Indeed, one famous American would almost certainly (but also quite hypocritically) call it disgusting. See what you think. The fate of public discourse may well depend on what you do in response.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 12
(The Day of the Grand Gesture) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Take control of your career, which means overcoming your tendency to react emotionally to others. Learn to steer your own ship, and to set your own course. Others may have a voice and a role, though it’s time for you to recognize that you are the one with the ideas, and you’re the one holding the bag. If you can do this, you will be brilliantly successful.

Written in the Planets
Last quarter Moons are usually considered a time of wrapping up. This is when the last burst of action takes place before the last loose ends are tied, in preparation for the new cycle to begin. Accompanying aspects involving Mars suggest that there is an unusually generous opportunity, in particular, to undo or redo something that didn’t pan out as expected. That might include retracting a rash word or deed that you perhaps regret. Just be sure to think things over carefully before you attempt a solution.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 11
(The Day of Gracious Ease) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You will have some unusual financial opportunities this year, and you may find yourself in a state of relative abundance. Yet you must be wise with your resources, and work from a strategy. That means, above all else, saving a significant portion of what you earn, and using the rest intelligently. And in any business project, you must control the purse strings.

Written in the Planets
Where is your philosophy of life seemingly at odds with particular details and desires in your actual lived experience? And how frustrating is that right now? Today a square between Mars in Virgo and Saturn in Sagittarius suggests that you proceed carefully and thoroughly in all things. Not because the details are more important, but rather because efforts to assert yourself might feel blocked, and that can be incredibly frustrating — especially if what seems to be blocking you is an inner sense of inadequacy in some regard. If you feel yourself struggling against inhibitions or discouragement from others, you’ll want to watch your irritability levels carefully. Blasting those closest to you won’t make you feel better. Meanwhile, Venus makes a square to Pholus and the Galactic Core in Sagittarius. If you’re feeling critical, what would it take to open your heart to a higher love? That’s one genie that could stand to be let out of the bottle.
