<hr> 1. October Zodiac - a Quick look
LIBRA - Happy Birthday - Mercury is retrograde in your sign making your balancing act intense. Are you the super diplomat making balanced actions in all your relationships? After the 15th it may be clean-up time at work as the first part of the month may have meant changes in your work style.
SCORPIO - Happy Birthday 10/22 onward - From October 4th to November 15 you will feel very powerful filled with energy to do projects and be social. Up until 10/15 the world will match the intensity that you ordinarily enjoy and provide momentum for whatever you start in the first half of the month. In the last 8 days of October you will become aware of the motivations and ecology or relationships from the perspective of limits and the abundance that can be felt when you know your boundaries. Be practical and grounded.
SAGITTARIUS - This is a time of steady and balanced growth. You may feel on the brink of great prosperity, but now is not the time to spend as if it were already here. Wait. While you are waiting acknowledge your boundaries and limitations testing your creativity against those boundaries. Expect a surge or creativity around the Full Moon on Oct 14th and some breakthroughs.
CAPRICORN - Your time to shine has come. This is a time of careful expansion into areas of expression and new ventures that are well thought out. Travel can bring growth when you have the time and patience, but if you travel for pleasure try to do so after 10/15.
AQUARIUS - Look for unexpected expenditures in terms of home appliances - furnaces, hot water heaters, water pressure, pumps if you have a well etc, so check these out. You may find yourself with unusual sources of income as opportunities present themselves. You may have trouble with authority by mid-month if you cannot maintain an inner balance.
PISCES - Your dreams and visions are stirred up. Your breakout style may be under fire requiring you to rebel further or make concessions. Either way challenges to grow are upon you. Look to your network for practical support. Intimate friends and lovers provide extra intensity right now. Check investments and contracts very carefully up to the 15th.
ARIES - October is an active month for you that can be critical in terms of intense breakthrough thinking and communication in leadership by example positions. Expect to be busy up until the 15th. You'll probably be a flash of light to those around you. Try not to expect those around you to rise to your pitch avoiding strained relationships and possible power struggles. New jobs and or job advancement is possible in the last week of the month.
TAURUS - October is a balancing act. Try not to expect others to be in service to you. Your shadow issues may come to the surface - this may look like seeing something you hate in yourself in another. Try to hold this opposite rather than railing against it. You may find yourself feeling victimized up until the 15th. If so list 10 new things you're grateful for each day - especially the irritations. Be the witness self and ground. All things must pass.
GEMINI - This is a month of clean-up or a kind of spring cleaning in your home and your intestines. Clean-up and reorganization projects of your home are best accomplished before the 14th - 15th. Cleansing fasts and bodywork are best done near the end of the month. A cleansing fast and deep tissue work could be just the boost or transformative process that you need right now.
CANCER - Your personal appeal shines out this month. If you're feeling vulnerable - vent and / or cleanse-clear as much as possible so that your best qualities are evident for all to see. This is your time in the spotlight whether that be the star or the family, community or in the workplace or career. Close relationships may feel very supportive right now.
LEO - Consciousness Raising is the theme by mid month via breakthroughs of the heart/mind/body. The slow and steady may be paying off this month and you're mucho busy. Be careful you don't crash and burn. Creativity flows through you.
VIRGO - Slow down. Take care of yourself. Attend to health issues. Be filled with care about the details of your life up to a day before the 14th and a day after the 15th. Take a rest from work.

5. Full Moon in Aries 10/14 Tuesday, 10/14, 6:03 pm - Full Moon in Aries at 22 degrees
Full Moons are a completion or culmination of the Light and as such are manifestations of what was germinating approximately two weeks ago or 9/29 (15 days ago). Sun (light - consciousness) is opposite the Moon (reflective or receptive light - emotion) so that the Light of Consciousness (Libra - love and relationships) shines its light on the emotions of courage, yang-energy and individuality (Aries - of forceful actions). Manifestation may occur when we balance the opposite energies of relationship and love with the forceful actions that we as individuals make.
The other notable influences of this Full Moon are about the heavenly body discovered in 2003 beyond Pluto - named Eris, which spends 556 years in a sign at least in the sign of Aries. Eris is about strife and discord - named for a Greek Goddess. The archaic meaning of Mars, the planet ruling Aries is the God of War. The energy of this Full Moon is blended with Eris suggesting that - 1. We are in a period of strife and discord and that (will a new war start?) - 2. The Moon suggests we reflect on this state of affairs and find the courage to lead ourselves out of this place to a Vision for humanity.
Connected to this full moon is an easy leap to see that we are all in this together and by the power of thought and humanitarian (Aquarian) ideas disseminated to each other and the power-possessors namely our representatives in Congress that we can translate a way out of the strife and discord. In turn when we do this healing factors are also set in motion to heal the now which extends into the future as we let go into the full moon all our angers and negative emotions that stand in the way of our own light.
If we can remember that a response made in anger comes from fear we can soothe ourselves and our fears and thereby make a choice to
1. Release the fear with loving-kindness (to the Full Moon).
2. Change the constrictiveness of fear based responses through release and CHOOSE a peaceful path that can still be fierce and focused.
The path comes from our ability to see futures (yes, more than one possible good future) that include those that are different from us that we may or may not agree, that we may have wounds to heal so that we can feel, honor and act with the whole in mind for our mutual survival on the planet.
Truths open and transform partnerships everywhere. Goddess and/or receptive energies are made with luck if we can remain flexible enough to see. And in order to remain flexible -
1. Observe your major habitual responses unfold
2. Breathe through them and love them for release
3. Breathe and choose a path based on connection even though you may feel lost and vulnerable.
We can follow the option of choice at every juncture where old habitual knee-jerk reactions arise and RE-LAX!!! Ah
<hr> 6. Planetary Events
The word mood - in bold signifies how the Moon may affect our mood in relationship to other planets.
Monday 10/6 - This is an intense and varied day of moods where you could feel easily overwhelmed. Stay grounded - grow and weather the changes. We could all feel big and silly but good, followed by feelings of neediness if we don't play with the trickster. So be flexible and allow yourself some healthy self-effacement and some giggles. From 2 to 3 pm look for thinking to get confused and/or intense - you choose. Male energies or actions can be thoughtfully expanded for protection and nurturing partnerships and projects. Wild thinking, talking and making promises you may not be able to keep yields to moods/feelings of disappointment. By late night we may be able to reconcile goddess energies with new authority. This may manifest as ideas and feelings (hunches) that could mean a new line of work or easy ways to work with more focused discipline.
Tuesday 10/7 - Today your emotional strengths and lofty visions and moods are being tested against the limits of physical reality. In the wee hours of the dark world expect shadow dreams that have healing motifs around romance and love. Think of the dark releasing so that light may enter. In the afternoon expect growth with regard to women's issues being tested so a new future can be revealed.
Wednesday 10/8 - Yesterday the mood was serious self-determinism that may have been fierce independence. Just after dawn the mood shifts to cooperating with one another. Thinking and communication may be boosted into a higher octave as if suddenly released like a homing pigeon set free from its cage. It may be a tough afternoon as healing and limits rise to the surface. Work on releasing worry and surrender into the divine. In the evening healing is easier.
Thursday 10/9 - Thinking and consciousness restructure and transform the darkness that stands in the way of your light as long as you form a vision of the future and pick a goal. Keeping cool and working on detaching may work if your make your mood light - breathe and know that there are choices. The early evening could bring power struggles or giving in to easily. Fighting is not a bad strategy as long as you fight fairly. Just before 11 pm pick your lotto numbers, look at the good luck you have now or make a love orgy happen.
Friday 10/10 - The day may be wild and changeable. Expect that you may be fighting one or more people or traffic. Energies within wish to break free. Our collective frustrations and moods surface regarding a government (taxation) and economy that does not serve us. Expect protests and uprisings. In the evening we move into a sensitive compassionate mood space.
Saturday 10/11 -We may feel intensely sensitive all rolled together in one mood taco today. Early morning may bring a desire to stay in bed and/or balance the greater good with our own needs. Find your balance and if that means staying in bed late, okay! In the afternoon romance, love and women's issues may go through a reality adjustment. Beware that things may either be worst than they look or better than they look so it's a good idea to employ surrender over the next four to five hours if possible with regards to love and romance. It's also possible to take a loving mood to a higher octave of compassionate service for one's community and work with world issues from the heart through sending out love and/or working in service with others or singularly. Early evening may bring a "do I take care of myself?" or "do I take care of him/her." kind of deal. It's an opportunity to grow in love and nurturing. The balancing act is standing pat and/or surrendering.
Sunday 10/12 - The morning could feel a bit dizzy. So if you have specific plans with others don't expect the plan to come off without some conflicts or detours. Challenges to your authority (or some one else's authority) with regard to future plans could set you spinning in and set up a fight in the late morning especially if our sense of justice is trampled upon. Remember that these disruptions are part of the vulnerable and sensitive feelings and moods that may arise today. By late afternoon skirting on evening its possible to take love both in their romantic and larger World Love capacities into union with Earth's being as well as a grounded optimism boarding on possible ecstasy (mood). Later in the night rough communications with your partner could be talked out and resolved before retiring.
Monday 10/13 - Mood change: Upbeat, energized, determined and impulsive are some characteristics. (Moon in Aries - mood) No other aspects.
Tuesday 10/14 - (see Full Moon above) About 4 am expect a small conflict about communicating/thinking with regard to getting our needs across, but if your asleep you may have interesting dreams. About 6:30 am expect dreaminess - not a good thing if you're already commuting so beware of an impulsive mood and stay grounded. In the evening yang or active energies are initiated into magical places. If your one those people that effects electrical or computers in add ways stay away from 6 to 7 pm (dinner break) or see me for alternatives. After 9 pm we can expect healing partnerships whether it be with a partner or higher aspects of yourself to flow if you're working in this arena.
Wednesday 10/15 - There's a mood change in the wee hours - it's a feeling of being more solid. This is a feeling of organically growing life, in short manifestation or birth. Expect a feeling or mood of nurturing ideas, relationships and life into a cauldron of birth. Think of the symbol for Taurus - it could be the Bull or it could also represent the Womb with the two fallopian tubes where "the horns" should be. Mercury goes direct at 8 degree Libra close to 1 pm (see below for more). In the evening we may feel good about the future and the partnership paradigm taking shape. Rock on!
<hr> 7. Mercury Retrograde Ends (sort-of)
Merc Retro Starts -Wednesday 9/24, 12:11 am (9/23 9:11 pm Hawaii) Moon 29 degrees Scorpio
Merc Retro Ends - Wednesday 10/15, 1:06 pm Moon in Taurus 6 degrees
Shadow Recovery - Shadow Retrograde ends 10/30, 8:31 pm Moon in Sagittarius 3 degrees
On Tuesday, November 7th when Bush "won" the 2000 elections Mercury was retrograde at 29 degrees Libra - karmic relationships. (See the VIBE 10-28 to 11-13 for Election Forecasts and The Mayan 6th Day beginning)
Mood at the Retrograde Start (9/24) - Karmic transformation - sexually and in any power relationship - boss-employee, parent-child, husband-wife, brother-sister, citizen-government, terrorist-oppressor, human-environment.
Mood at the Retrograde End (10/15) - Means that the manifestation of something real, such as money, the start of something good, including pleasures is likely. Beware of inflexible stubbornness.
Mood at the Shadow's End (10/30) - Is a breakout -global truth exposition, look for new truths coming to the surface. McCain may blurt and blunder under the impulsiveness of his own tongue. And depending on whether you hitch your hopes to the Dems or the Repubs you'll probably feel more hopeful today.
Western Astrologers would have us believe that Mercury retrograde and the shadow period is an inward time of "do-overs". Remember retrogrades are an appearance of moving backwards against the zodiac, appearance being the key word here. All retrogrades mean that the planet is as close to earth as is possible so it's influence is intensified. This has nothing to do with turning inward or screwing things up in documents or communications etc. When we mess up its our responsibility. We can respond to intensity by matching our force, our will with the power of the intensity to hone ego and soul together in an insurmountable force. Or we can hide in a closet and give into the inward victim like thinking of astrology having power over us.
Waxing and waning are planetary motion principles at work in astrology and astronomy. For instance a waxing moon denotes the Moon moving towards more reflected light or increasing in light. Waning is a decreasing in light. When planets transit planets in your birth chart they wax towards the exact degree of the angle or aspect and the wan away from a point. Your birthday is a Solar Return of the Sun waxing and waning around the date (degree) of your birth. The VIBE is about waxing and waning aspects.
Some people are more sensitive to waxing influences were the energies build up while others are more sensitive to waning or decreasing energies. Some of us are just sensitive to both the waxing and waning principles. I bring this up because after every retrograde the planet transverses the same degrees it did twice before:
WAXING TOWARDS the retrograde point of 23 degrees Libra
DURING RETROGRADE - WANING AWAY from the point to 8 degrees libra
WAXING TOWARDS the original point where it began at 23 degrees Libra late in the day on 10/30
Some astrologers will tell you that you are going over the same territory as before during a shadow retrograde. In the past I have down played this as "hair-splitting" because I disagree with the view among Western Astrologers that Mercury Retrograde is about an inward turning period due to a causal event from the planet.
I recommend that you look to discover patterns on your own during Mercury retrograde and it's subsequent shadow period. This may be done simply on your Google, iCal, cell phone, desk or wall calendars - mainly a one or two word theme written on each date space. This may give you the patterns of your behavior. Are you more sensitive to waxing, waning or both sides of the transit.

On Tuesday, November 7th when Bush "won" the 2000 elections Mercury was retrograde at 29 degrees Libra - karmic relationships. (See the VIBE 10-28 to 11-13 for Election Forecasts and The Mayan 6th Day beginning)
Mood at the Retrograde Start (9/24) - Karmic transformation - sexually and in any power relationship - boss-employee, parent-child, husband-wife, brother-sister, citizen-government, terrorist-oppressor, human-environment.
Mood at the Retrograde End (10/15) - Means that the manifestation of something real, such as money, the start of something good, including pleasures is likely. Beware of inflexible stubbornness.
Mood at the Shadow's End (10/30) - Is a breakout -global truth exposition, look for new truths coming to the surface. McCain may blurt and blunder under the impulsiveness of his own tongue. And depending on whether you hitch your hopes to the Dems or the Repubs you'll probably feel more hopeful today.
Western Astrologers would have us believe that Mercury retrograde and the shadow period is an inward time of "do-overs". Remember retrogrades are an appearance of moving backwards against the zodiac, appearance being the key word here. All retrogrades mean that the planet is as close to earth as is possible so it's influence is intensified. This has nothing to do with turning inward or screwing things up in documents or communications etc. When we mess up its our responsibility. We can respond to intensity by matching our force, our will with the power of the intensity to hone ego and soul together in an insurmountable force. Or we can hide in a closet and give into the inward victim like thinking of astrology having power over us.
Waxing and waning are planetary motion principles at work in astrology and astronomy. For instance a waxing moon denotes the Moon moving towards more reflected light or increasing in light. Waning is a decreasing in light. When planets transit planets in your birth chart they wax towards the exact degree of the angle or aspect and the wan away from a point. Your birthday is a Solar Return of the Sun waxing and waning around the date (degree) of your birth. The VIBE is about waxing and waning aspects.
Some people are more sensitive to waxing influences were the energies build up while others are more sensitive to waning or decreasing energies. Some of us are just sensitive to both the waxing and waning principles. I bring this up because after every retrograde the planet transverses the same degrees it did twice before:
WAXING TOWARDS the retrograde point of 23 degrees Libra
DURING RETROGRADE - WANING AWAY from the point to 8 degrees libra
WAXING TOWARDS the original point where it began at 23 degrees Libra late in the day on 10/30
Some astrologers will tell you that you are going over the same territory as before during a shadow retrograde. In the past I have down played this as "hair-splitting" because I disagree with the view among Western Astrologers that Mercury Retrograde is about an inward turning period due to a causal event from the planet.
I recommend that you look to discover patterns on your own during Mercury retrograde and it's subsequent shadow period. This may be done simply on your Google, iCal, cell phone, desk or wall calendars - mainly a one or two word theme written on each date space. This may give you the patterns of your behavior. Are you more sensitive to waxing, waning or both sides of the transit.
