Guest writer Cheryl Corson, a long-term friend of Planet Waves, offers her take on the weekend’s horrifying events in Charlottesville, VA. As a Jew whose great grandparents were murdered by the Nazis, she has plenty of pertinent comments on the recent white supremacist march, which culminated in the murder of a young anti-fascist activist and caused many to fear what might happen next. Cheryl reflects on what Charlottesville says about the rest of the nation.

If Your Birthday is Aug. 17
(The Day of Explosive Power) | Leo Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Play as if you have all the luck in the world, especially when initiating new projects or new directions. Push into the unfamiliar like you’ve been there before many times. If you are called to master a certain skill, proceed like it’s a refresher course, though slowly and meticulously. You know more than you think, as long as you maintain awareness of where you are.
Written in the Planets
Amid the present social turmoil, it’s easy to feel frustration and helplessness. However, aspects today from Venus and Vesta offer a reminder that as long as you encounter other people, there are always choices. You can choose to love or hate; to offer kindness or withhold it; to do what is right or what is easy (in the approximate words of J.K. Rowling). The decisions of ordinary life are often small and simple, but each tips the scale — even if by a minuscule amount. That’s the power you possess, and it’s more significant than you think.
To the Leo Eclipse and Beyond!
On Aug. 21, a total solar eclipse in Leo signals the second stage of whatever life-shifting process you’re engaged with.
This is a unique year for you, Leo. In addition to the current eclipses (and the double New Moons in your sign), your birthday reading will cover such astrological heavyweights as Chiron finishing up its journey through your 8th house; ever-surprising Uranus; and Saturn leaving your fellow fire sign, Sagittarius — plus more.
Are you navigating changes in your relationships or family paradigm? Do you find yourself at a career crossroads? Are you seeking clarity, encouragement and new perspectives on your creativity, self-esteem, sexuality or healing process? You’ll find ideas and reassurance in this reading.
"I have just listened to your Part 1 and Part 2 readings and I am amazed at how accurate it has been. Like you have a telescope watching me shed a skin and transform into a totally changed person in the last 10 years."
— Pauline Jones

“You can choose to love or hate ….”

I’ve been thinking of this..
“while time plays with future’s sense
and present’s blessed pre-sentience.”
And I found this…
‘Mars (an emblem of personal energy), and Uranus (a symbol of collective energy) now have in common the passionate garment of elemental fire. For a short time centered on this weekend, the uninhibited flow implied by a common element will hence connect your personal energy, and what you do with it, with the energetic potential you share in community, country and ultimately, all creation.’
