Planet Waves Full Edition: The Chaos Factor

This week, Eric considers the astrology of our era, and how this applies to the United States in particular. The resulting article is founded on much previous research, but is also spectacularly unique in its analysis: it takes the recent movements of metaphorical giants Uranus, Pluto and Eris and fits them together seamlessly. You may read the edition here.

If Your Birthday is [today’s date]
(The Day of Temperament) | Get Your Scorpio Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Sometimes relationships and desire are about receiving; sometimes they are about taking action. But both of those states of being ideally exist in a kind of self-feeding, alternating continuum. Today, see if you can innovate some brand-new-to-you expression of desire to complement feelings you’ve been holding in reserve. You don’t have to be in a capital-R ‘relationship’ to grow these skills, by the way — just willing to be known for what you want.

Written in the Planets
Have you ever tried to run in a straight line through boggy terrain, or tried to separate the hot oatmeal in your bowl into two distinct portions with your spoon? Thinking and communicating today could be a little like that: even with the most sincere optimism, you might find that getting your point across in the way you intended proves mushier than you’d envisioned. That’s okay; just be patient and strive for clarity as best you can. Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces makes today great for daydreaming. That said, if you’re trying to get anybody on board with that dream, check to be sure you’re putting all your cards on the table — including with yourself.
