“And I got a strong feeling of the passage of time. Not the time of clouds and sun and rain and the moving stars that adorn the night, not spring when its time comes or fall, not the time that makes leaves bud on branches and then tears them off or folds and unfolds and colors the flowers, but the time inside me, the time you can’t see but it molds us. The time that rolls on and on in people’s hearts and makes them roll along with it and gradually changes us inside and out and makes us what we’ll be on our dying day.”
— Merce Rodoreda

If Your Birthday is Oct. 10
(The Day of Prudent Economy) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You may feel like some great change is about to happen, and you’re right. Yet this is based on your being in alignment with your deepest truth and spiritual values. You’re a more intense and driven person than you let on, and it’s time to bring your true nature to the surface. Do not do this for the sake of others; it’s about your strength and your integrity.

Written in the Planets
Today’s biggest news is that the largest planet in our solar system, Jupiter, changes signs and enters Scorpio. This brings all the ‘spirituality’ and ‘creativity’ of Sagittarius and Pisces (since Jupiter traditionally rules both those signs) into the transformative, regenerative field of Scorpio. Jupiter tends to magnify what it encounters. So if everything seems to be coming up roses for you, it will be up to you to supply some discipline, discretion and a sense of when excess would simply be…excessive. If the zoom lens of your life suddenly feels focused on what is difficult or defies easy understanding and navigation, know that you’re seeing it in full Technicolor so that you can deal with it more effectively and sensitively. In the background, Venus in Virgo opposes Chiron in Pisces. This looks like a reminder: if you encounter the hurt feelings of a loved one, compassionate acknowledgment (rather than analysis) could be healing for both of you.

Order your Libra audio reading today, and get instant access to the two astrology segments (the tarot reading will be following shortly — and at that time, the price will increase). Please use this link.

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.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 9
(The Day of the Penetrating Gaze) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
If you’ve learned only one thing the past year of your life, it’s that you must think big. This year, we can add another theme: you must think for yourself, and not be swayed by the whims and opinions of others. You have worked hard for your independence, and it’s now time to set forth and live your life your way. Do not send a press release; just go for it.

Written in the Planets
Following their conjunction yesterday, the Sun and Mercury each form a square to Pluto. This contact may in some ways prefigure Jupiter’s ingress into Scorpio tomorrow (Tuesday), putting you in contact with thoughts or feelings that might be swimming just below the surface of your consciousness. Notice if any specific idea turns out to be of a slightly different nature than you believed, as if emerging from camouflage. What is the significance of the part that was hidden?

If Your Birthday is Oct. 8
(The Day of High Romance) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Today’s spectacular Mercury-Sun meeting on your birthday is calling on you to shine your brightest, and let the world see what you can do. Ground yourself in concrete goals, and in specific places where you are the most productive. Place an emphasis on doing things for their own sake, and because they’re the right thing to do, and the money will flow.

Written in the Planets
Today Mercury catches up with the Sun in mid-Libra. This might be a good time to reflect on what has passed since Mercury stationed direct last month, and what may be culminating now. If something was revealed during that station, how has that developed for you, and how might you take matters forward? Vesta is still fairly close by; that’ll help with any requisite goal setting or self-motivation. Get your mind up to speed.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 7
(The Day of Defiance) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You may be feeling like you have so much potential, yet be wondering how you’re ever going to manifest it. To that end, it will help if you put your faith in yourself rather than in others. You are the most dependable person in your life, because you’re the one to whom your life matters the most. Grasp that, and your goals will come much closer to you.

Written in the Planets
Venus in Virgo is moving into a square with Saturn in Sagittarius tomorrow. Following the Full Moon and Venus-Mars conjunction that punctuated this past week, you might notice that your personal (and especially romantic or intimate) relationships feel somewhat cooler today. Beware of holding loved ones to too high or too rigid a standard. They are only human. As are you — so even if you do get overly focused on their inadequacies, skip the guilt and see if you can shift into a more self-reflective mode. Seeing what’s real in a relationship is never a bad thing; it just requires you to see the broader picture along with the details, and to do so with compassion for all involved.

The Next Battle in a War on the People

Here is feast of solitude
A fiddler grim and tall
Plays to dancing kings and wives
Assembled in the hall
— R.H.

Dear Friend and Reader:

Once again, we’re being confronted with a mass casualty incident involving firearms. This is on the heels of every other kind of disaster, or the threat of one, in rapid sequence since the Aug. 21 eclipse. By now every American has heard the story: someone set up a position on the 32nd floor of a resort hotel in Las Vegas, and opened fire on a country music festival across the street. According to the police, and press reports, there were more than 500 casualties, including 59 dead.

Security checkpoint set up outside a Chanel store in Las Vegas after Sunday’s shooting. Now all hotels and casinos on the strip are screening everyone on the way in. This is the wave of the future. Security checkpoints, including sophisticated X-ray scans, will soon go from being many places to being everyplace. This will be a massive boon for the national security state and everyone in that business, dwarfing the expansion after 9/11. Photo by Melja Nanucci for Planet Waves.

Remember that nearly all of us are experiencing this through the internet, and at the same time, few are considering the impact of the internet on events and our perception of them. The internet influences the speed that the news travels, as well as its impact. The internet also means that videos of the crime and the crime scene were available almost instantly.

Straight away, as always happens these days, the “false flag” theories have come up: that is, ideas about how actual events fail to match up with the official story that’s being repeated with absolute unanimity by all media from Fox to The New York Times to MSNBC to Democracy Now!

They are all taking different positions on the gun issue itself, and perhaps asking different questions, though the core narrative is remarkably consistent no matter what the position of the outlet: a lone shooter, with no known motive, did this all by himself. (To be fair, Lawrence O’Donnell of MSNBC had one guest for about five minutes Monday night, who was present at the scene and who described his perception of multiple shooters.)

For anyone spreading fear, Las Vegas was the perfect setting for such an incident: it’s one of the unofficial capitals of the United States. Almost everyone has been there, and even if you hate the place you love the place. Everyone can relate. It’s pure Americana, as is country music. Between the internet and Las Vegas, it’s easy to write yourself into the story.

Ultimately, the idea of any false flag theory is that the government did it. There are many plausible versions of this. But we don’t need any theory or potential false flag operation to see that: this is about the true flag, the stars and stripes of the United States government. Our government allows, and encourages, people to possess weapons of war, where those weapons are used routinely on the people.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 6
(The Day of the Good Life) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Expect the unexpected, which means that making rigid plans will not serve you. However, if you hang loose, and have a general sense of your goals, you will both discover and invent many new ways of living. As a balance to that, you must select as friends those who respect boundaries, which is another way of saying respect your time and your feelings.

Written in the Planets
With yesterday’s Aries Full Moon behind you, hopefully you’re noticing greater ease in your relationships. This evening, the Moon enters Taurus — offering a more grounded, deliberate undercurrent. Given that Venus (ruler of Taurus) and Mars are both warming up a square to Saturn in Sagittarius, the influence of the Taurus Moon could be helpful. Proceed with careful deliberation in all tasks, and use tangible evidence as your reference points. Squares to Saturn can undermine one’s self-confidence, but they don’t have to get away with it. Your accomplishments are real, and your loved ones are just as human as you are.

If Your Birthday is Oct. 5
(The Day of the Just Cause) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
The Full Moon on your birthday reveals that you’re heading for an exciting, challenging year, with many adventures calling you. Yet to experience this fully, it’s essential that you see yourself in the other, and allow people close enough to you to feel who you really are. Your relationships will take their own mysterious course; do not try to predict or dictate the journey.

Written in the Planets
Today sees Venus conjunct Mars in Virgo, and then the Aries Full Moon — happening within two hours of one another. Since Mars rules Aries and Venus rules Libra (where the Sun is), this is really one combined event, with the focus being on your relationships — within yourself, and with others. It’s worth spending some time considering how you integrate your inner male and female archetypes, and how that is reflected in your interactions with others. Eric has much more in this week’s Astrology Diary, which is well worth rereading.

Venus and Mars are on their way to a conjunction in Virgo tomorrow: a merging not only of our inner ‘female’ and ‘male’ opposites, but of the mental and physical ways we experience and express that balance. Before Venus-Mars culminates, however, we have another conjunction: Mercury conjunct the asteroid Vesta in Libra. You could say this is a symbol of preparing to hold space for Venus-Mars. And thanks to Mercury and Venus inhabiting each other’s signs, this space holding can happen mentally, emotionally and perhaps even physically. What if you were to allow a little more wiggle room in your psyche for how ‘female’ and ‘male’ play within you? Are you curious to discover how your relationship to yourself might breathe easier?

If Your Birthday is Oct. 3
(The Day of the Trendsetters) | Libra Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You must be realistic where work-related matters are concerned, and take a sober, organized and structured approach. You have plenty of imagination, and even more inspiration. Yet in order to manifest any of your goals, the secret ingredients will be focus and follow-through. Where health matters are concerned, your emotional life is the place to focus your efforts at wellness.

Written in the Planets
Are you communicating fairly about your longstanding relationship needs? That is to say, what seems to be driving you more: the desire for harmony and understanding, or the need to feel emotionally validated regarding something with deep roots in the past? The two positions need not be mutually exclusive — but Mercury in Libra making a square to Juno in Capricorn today is pushing you to figure out how to actively integrate it all. Meanwhile, Venus in Virgo trine Pluto in Capricorn intensifies love and sexual desire — grounding the mind and emotions firmly in the body, thanks to the earth signs involved. Notice and embrace what your inner depths are revealing to you about your relationships; bonus points if you can channel it into making art.
