Celestial Forecast for August 10-16, 2009
Green Zodiac
by Benjamin Bernstein

Whatever your sun sign, this forecast will help you choose how to best use the current astrological energies! Events are most powerful on the dates listed. However, their influence will be active for at least several days before and after. All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone.


While everyone is affected by these global transits, you will be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate natal planets and other sensitive points in your birth chart.

VOID-OF-COURSE MOONS. It's best to avoid starting important new projects or making major purchases during these times. "Business as usual" is the best strategy for these periods, which occur when the Moon has made its last major Ptolemaic aspect but has not yet moved into the next sign. Learn more about working with void-of-course Moons here.

8/11, 4:04p - 8/12, 12:50a (Taurus)
8/13, 11:17p - 8/14, 6:26a (Gemini)
8/16, 2:20a - 9:14a (Cancer)

8/10 (Mon). Conflict generated by clashing ideas is possible today (Geminian Mars square Virgoan Saturn), but the same energies can also provide Energizer Bunny endurance! 
 
8/12 (Wed). Flashes of creativity and divine inspiration are available, thanks to today's Sun-Uranus biquintile.
 
8/13 (Thu). Mars trines the Three Aquarians* 8/13-17, beginning today with Jupiter. Plan a physically active day and get some blood flowing! Sexuality and new beginnings are also energized.
 
8/14 (Fri). The high energy continues with a Sun-Jupiter opposition, but be careful not to go overboard - it's easy to overstep appropriate limits under hard angles from Jupiter! With Venus biquintile Jupiter, creativity remains at high tide.
 
8/15 (Sat). Mars trines Chiron today, energizing healing (especially alternative modalities) and mentoring.
          With a T-SQUARE peaking today - Mars squaring a loose Saturn-Uranus opposition -- you might feel torn between "business as usual" and venturing in new directions. (This T-Square is strong the 11th thru the 26th.) If you can't decide between old patterns and new paradigms, see if you can somehow turn an either/or into a both/and!
 
8/16 (Sun). Not only was Chiron trined by Mars yesterday, it's being opposed by the Sun today! All this attention (on top of Chiron having been tightly conjunct Neptune and Jupiter for months on end) brings its energy of healing, mentoring and maverick action into strong focus. Chiron is also associated with wounding, so take extra care around this time.
