Looking Beyond the Devil in the Details

Dear Friend and Reader:

By now, whatever emotional energy peak you may have experienced with the Full Moon should be dissipating. And while you still might feel a little foggy or unsure about certain situations (thanks to Neptune's lingering influence), at least the mental shenanigans of Mercury are slowly beginning to sort themselves out. 'Easy does it' is still the mantra du jour, though.

That might even go double for any unexpected pieces of information that came to you as Mercury stationed direct Tuesday morning.

As Mercury traces its way back through the degrees of the zodiac where it was just retrograde, see if you can follow the trail of breadcrumbs back from whatever you've been reflecting on or reviewing.

Even though Mercury is returning to the same slice of zodiac where it was on Aug. 12, all of the other planets have shifted (whether slightly or dramatically). Don't be surprised if, as you follow your breadcrumb trail back, you find yourself in a slightly different place, with slightly -- or dramatically -- different self-understanding or insight.

Saturday, Sept. 9, Mercury re-enters Virgo at 10:52 pm EDT (2:52 UTC Sunday), in direct motion. Waiting for it just inside the doorstep are the hypothetical point Transpluto at 2 degrees Virgo, and Mars at 4 degrees Virgo.

Straight away, this looks like a caution against over-focusing on something and putting way more energy into it than it warrants. Overkill is a real thing, and tends to result in diminishing returns. With this loose triple conjunction happening in Virgo, things like non-essential details, self-criticism, criticism of others, one's idea of 'logic' and over-analyzing are all possible areas where one could get a little hung up over the next few days.

Yet there's another factor to consider: Mercury, Transpluto and Mars are all making a trine to Juno in Capricorn, with Mars the most exact. Juno can be a tricky critter. It's possible for it to function in a social-justice role. Often, however, Juno shows up speaking of partnership issues -- especially in the area of unmet or unexpressed needs.

Planet Waves
Full chart for Mercury's second ingress of Virgo in direct motion (Mercury's first ingress of Virgo was in direct motion back on July 25, prior to its station retrograde). Mercury is the green symbol with 'horns' at the bottom of the chart, in the first arc minute of the first degree of Virgo (properly written 00 Virgo 00). You may view the glyph key here.  
In its higher expression, Juno trine these Virgo planets could very well describe your ability to focus on and put significant energy into serving a social-justice cause. Goddess knows there are plenty needing our collective and individual effort and energy right now. (And, incidentally, tomorrow's opposition between Jupiter in Libra and Eris in Aries might allude to that same cultural context, with Jupiter representing the search for justice in the face of social -- and social media -- chaos.)

Yet, Juno in this configuration could also make it even easier to over-focus on past unmet relationship needs or unaddressed grievances. And that could fuel the shadow side of Mars in Virgo: a sharp, sarcastic and cutting tongue.

Sure, that might feel justified. But it's a distraction from the opening that would allow you to serve something greater -- such as healing.

There is a reason why revenge cycles show up so often in history and literature: two wrongs never make a right; whereas deep, actual healing dissolves the cycle. A revenge cycle might make for an exciting, ongoing narrative and high ratings on TV, but dissolving the cycle through personal healing allows for a much more fulfilling and creative life.

Interestingly, this idea is supported today by the Virgo Sun making a trine to one of the zodiac's heavyweights: Pluto, which is in Capricorn. According to astrologer Robert Hand, Sun-Pluto trines carry very beneficial, transformative energies. The key, he says, is to pay attention inwardly to what motivates you, what you're seeking and what changes you need to make.

But there's a catch: Hand also notes that using this energy ruthlessly or selfishly sets energies in motion that will drag you down in the long run. Pluto is about power. And in a trine to the Sun, it is about conscious, right use of power by the individual for inner evolution.

In today's chart, it would seem that using this transformative power well means keeping one eye on the big picture, and one eye on your own growth, healing and call to service. Sure, the details matter; and Mercury still slow, powerful and echo-y means that your awareness and focus is warranted, especially for basic daily tasks like driving, financial transactions and anything done via technology. But sometimes, as they say, the devil hides in those details. Can you tell the difference?

Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter

We've now published In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis. The video readings for all 12 signs cover the Great American Eclipse of Aug. 21 and well beyond. We'll be increasing the price again soon, so don't hesitate to order your copy here, or choose your individual signs here.

I've been a devoted student of eclipses since beginning astrology. Here's some of my earlier writing, published before the grand cross and total solar eclipse of Aug. 11, 1999. These few paragraphs below will give you a feeling for just how significant eclipses are. This one is one of the most important in American history, which I've covered here.
Eclipses are astrology we can't deny. If there is a conjunction between Saturn and Uranus, it's invisible, and while many people may experience changes, only astrologers and their merry bands of readers and students know what's happening. Yet when the Sun vanishes, you can be sure that normal activity will come to a stop.

Our busy world will pause, and everyone, from herbicide activists nestled in the hills of Oregon to rock stars in Nashville, will stand in the silent shadow of the cosmic order with the astonishment of small children coursing in their hearts.

This doesn't happen often, and you can imagine the awesome power of so many people embraced in a kind of simultaneous, captive meditation as everything around them momentarily ceases to be normal. Call it a reality lapse, only it's one into which the real reality can flow very easily.

In terms of their astrological meaning, eclipses of the Sun follow this image of collective awareness and radical break of continuity. Whether you can see the eclipse does not matter; part of the miracle of astrology is it works anyway. As many of us are discovering personally, eclipses are expanded moments of often uncontrollable, unpredictable change. They also bring the civilization and its communities together, usually through important collective events and the media.

Eclipses are evolutionary gateways, which is another way of saying that when they show up, we do a lot of growing in a short time. Delays are compensated. Old accounts can be wiped clean. While each is unique, eclipses often feel like being shot through a funnel of space-time, and we emerge somewhere different than where we entered. The key to making the best use of them is to move with the energy, not cling to anything or anyone too tightly, and to stay open.

Literally, breathe, communicate, feel, love, observe and receive. Remember your intentions. The sense of panic that sometimes accompanies them yields nicely to awareness and revelation, mental conditions that are more natural than we often realize.

Screen shot featuring Joe Cocker's 1969 Woodstock performance of the Beatles' "I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends," paired with a shot of a turbine he's apparently singing about. What do YOUR ears hear when you play this video
When You Need a Little Help…From Your Friends' Ears

By Amanda Painter


Sure, Mercury is now in direct apparent motion. But it certainly has not worked out all of its kinks. So, just in case you could use a good laugh about garbled communication -- or some friendly support -- Joe Cocker has a little something for you.

Well, it's Joe Cocker along with the help of an anonymous, um, 'friend' who has translated the lyrics of his famous 1969 Woodstock performance of "I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends," in this YouTube video. Perhaps you've heard this version of the Beatles' classic before. But: have you ever noticed that ol' Joe does not seem to be saying the 'real' words? Or any actual words, for that matter, for most of the song?

He starts out fine. But in just a matter of seconds, the subtitles added to this video suggest that he's singing such things as: "Oh baby, Hoggify"; "Oh, hey hen, let's say I want a tidal wave"; and "What about in this turbine?"

Let's face it: the ears hear strange things when people don't articulate clearly…and when Mercury is retrograde or shadowy. Let's not even speculate about what drugs Cocker was on when he was singing; Neptune is slippery enough right now as it is.

Planet Waves Weekly Horoscope for Sept. 3-9, 2017, #1166 | By Eric Francis
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- As Mercury changes direction this week, you will be guided to put the emphasis of your life on work-related projects. Yet you'll benefit from leaving the window open to the creative zone of your mind, drawing from the same pool of ideas you would to do your most exciting personal projects. Said another way, to work effectively, the formula is to blend work and play. That means being more daring, and breaking the mold on certain stuck or boring thought patterns. You may encounter a situation where there's a temptation to do things the same old way, though the more you try to do that, the more you will revolt. Your mind may become a kind of incendiary device; these get most of their power not from the explosive itself but from the tightness of the container. When you experience a real idea, you'll know it from the way the walls and windows rattle. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- You're ready to expand into a whole new direction, though you may encounter some resistance in the form of your usual, seemingly inescapable self-critique. You in particular will always tend to be your harshest critic, which is in part a product of conditioning you can unravel. In case I haven't done so lately, I'll pass along an idea given to me by a wise old Taurus in my life, which is to never judge your own performance. Rather, do your best work, and let others decide how they feel about it. While some things, such as writing or photos, seem subject to self-critique, this is not as dependable as it seems. You miss the impact of what you create on minds and emotional bodies other than your own. You can't really assess what you're producing unless you experience it for the first time, in that moment, which you cannot do. Therefore, do not judge yourself; just keep experimenting.

Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Mercury stationing direct on Tuesday morning, after a nearly four-week retrograde phase, will give you a boost of confidence. Yet at the same time, other factors look like they could undermine your self-assurance. Once there was a spiritual teacher named Alan Watts. He wrote, "The desire for security and the feeling of insecurity are the same thing. To hold your breath is to lose your breath. A society based on the quest for security is nothing but a breath-retention contest in which everyone is as taut as a drum and as purple as a beet." Wow, that sounds like it was written yesterday, though it's from the mid-20th century. The remedy to this emotional mind is, in part, not to take yourself, or your feeling of supposed security, all that seriously. Keep your sense of humor. Remember that all things have a beginning, a middle and an end; track where you are in that process. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- This has been an interesting few weeks for you in two seemingly unrelated aspects of life: your finances and your self-esteem. Yet astrology strongly suggests that they are closely related, if not one and the same thing. If you study the relationship, you'll notice interesting things. People tend to feel more confident when they have money in their pocket, though they often miss that their economic situation is related to their confidence. While there are exceptions, you will learn a great deal from seeking an understanding of this relationship, particularly over the next six months. As you build one, you will strengthen the other, with the seeming side result of cultivating maturity. This should be more meaningful to you than popularity or being entertained. Go for the deeper material and the longer-lasting values. Know what is truly important to you, and find strength in pursuing that as a life mission or calling. What you gain, you will never lose.

Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- What you've learned the past few weeks has provided you with gems of wisdom that you will be able to bank on for a lifetime. In long hindsight, once some time passes and you have some perspective, August 2017 will be a before-and-after turning point on which your whole life seemed to pivot. What happens over the next few days will remind you what you learned and reinforce the teachings that have been offered to you. You may have missed a few subtle points or ideas for how to proceed, and you may also be making a few final decisions for how you're going to advance in the short term. Make sure those decisions are based on new information, which is likely to be flowing in abundance. The point of gaining knowledge is to use it, rather than merely collect it. The only way to confirm whether a theory or approach is valid is to do an extended real-time test. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.
The first astrology segment of your 2017-18 Leo Birthday Reading by Eric is now published. This is a seminal year for Leo Sun, rising and Moon, especially with the recent powerful solar eclipse in your sign. Make this dynamic energy work for you -- order your reading today.
Virgo Birthdays 2017:
Find Your Passion for Growth
"If you're getting the message to grow and to become, find your passion for growth. Passion means feeling, beauty, angst, love, confusion, pain and discovery: the things you discover in every meaningful endeavor."
-- Eric Francis Coppolino in the 2017 Book of Your Life reading for Virgo
Dear Reader with Virgo Sun, Rising or Moon:

What messages to "grow and become" did you receive between the two August eclipses? Are you still trying to figure that out, or maybe planning your next steps?

Planet Waves
Recent weeks have been interesting and intense for just about everyone, though it's possible they've felt especially curious for you.

This Tuesday, you had the unique experience of your ruling planet, Mercury, stationing direct in the same cryptic, hidden-away section of your chart where the total solar eclipse occurred on Aug. 21.

All of it comes together to begin your next year in dynamic ways -- ways that will ripple out and develop in the months to come, aided by other significant astrology in the process. For example, major planets are gearing up to change signs (among other things).

Eric will get into all of this and more in your upcoming 2017-18 Virgo Birthday Reading.
"Your readings are soothing, grounding and remarkably spot on, especially in times like these. I very much appreciate you and your work."
-- Alison
Created to help you steer through the next 12 months and beyond, Eric presents the two astrology segments (at least 30 minutes each) and tarot reading in accessible, inviting language. He'll offer motivation and inspiration for all the challenges and opportunities you may encounter in your intimate relationships, family structure, career, creativity, spiritual and sexual healing and much more.
"You guide but also ask the listener to engage with their lives. Humans don't just get transformation for free and you are very precise in telling us where to look."
-- Shelley Stearns
How will you activate your potential and passion to grow and become? You can start by pre-ordering your Virgo Birthday Reading -- at the lowest price we offer: just $33 for some of the clearest, most immediately useful astrology you can find on the internet.

Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- In anything you may do, ask yourself whom you're serving. What is the cause that you're supporting? To what is your energy devoted? To be happy as a Virgo, what you do must transcend yourself. Yet Mars in your birth sign is strongly suggesting that you have to act in certain self-serving ways. You're approaching a point of maturity that's requiring you to find approaches to life that sustain your own cause and that serve the greater good. What you do must work for everyone on some level. There are times when you'll be called upon to make a sacrifice or to offer yourself in truly selfless service, though when you're in tune, this will always come back to you in the form of learning, knowledge or the opportunity for further participation. Don't be deterred by people who are in denial or committed to being lost; that's just a game, and it's one that you don't want or need to play.

Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- There's only so much progress you can make when your primary devotion is to making sure your life is carefully planned and organized. Most real advances come through some form of disruption. This might include an unexpected turn in the story line, plans that don't work out and which then need to be revised, or realizing you're confused and need to snap out of it. Therefore, hang loose, and don't cling to what you think is supposed to happen. Rather, let the momentum of the next few days carry you, and then see where you end up. Events over the next 24 hours, as the Full Moon stretches across the most sensitive angle of your solar chart, will reveal that things are not as they seem. As the fog gradually clears, you're likely to discover that you've accomplished far more than you may think, despite any plans to do something different.

Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- Popularity is not everything. Seeming proper and acceptable are worth even less. These things are so empty that you'd be well served to toss any worries about what you think people think, and to experience yourself with no concern about how you're perceived. This is a stretch, though it'll set you free to think, feel and do things that violate the rules in some way, or which may be appealing to you but frightening to those who are less bold and curious. That's the place to hang out; that's where the action is. The fact that something you want might seem inappropriate, embarrassing or risqué is exactly the reason to experiment with it; this in turn will require you to go against protocol in some way. That's one clue you're doing something real, and relevant to your growth. To be who you are, you must be willing to challenge who you are.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- All the emphasis of your solar chart is now shifting to your 10th house of reputation and achievement. That also means accountability. You might, however, be over-emphasizing the responsibility aspect of things, which could hinder your ability to get things done. If you proceed with foresight rather than merely worrying about the impact of what you do, you'll make a lot more progress. Consider what you intend, and be mindful about unintended consequences. Said another way, at the moment, there's a limit to how impeccable you can be and still get anything done. One helpful key is to notice when your own concerns seem like those of your parents. For example, you know you can succeed at what they might never have dared to try. You might bend a rule that they would never even consider messing with. Most of all, you're far likelier to strive to achieve something difficult even if you're uncertain or insecure. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- One theme of the post-eclipse phase of your life is ethics. You can think of this as the careful evaluation of what is right or wrong, based on your personal values. You can drive yourself crazy splitting hairs, and sometimes that's necessary and relevant. There's another side to what we call ethics, which is a related concept: ethos. You can think of that as the spirit of the law, rather than the letter of the law. That's what you want. The truth, or what is correct, is rarely quantifiable, though you can feel it -- and you can feel when that elusive thing is not there. For your purposes, there is such a thing as true and valid, though you will be able to sense it more than you can prove it. Therefore, be sensitive to what you're feeling, including a certain kind of resistance that you know hints you're investing your energy where it does not belong.

Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Regarding a financial matter, you will need to study the exact figures before you have a sense of what's going on. Be bold about going to the numbers, and looking at the various sub-totals and the bottom line. This is not an area with any room for guessing, and what you think might be true is likely to turn out to be different from what is actually true. You cannot be too accurate; you should get the same result whether you add the column from top to bottom or bottom to top. Once you have the data, you'll be on much more solid ground, and you'll feel more confident as a result. In fact, you're likely to discover that not knowing the bottom line eats confidence like a caterpillar eats leaves. You'll also have enough information to establish the best MO for what you want to do, which should rightfully include a budget that you stick to, more or less.

Pisces
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Many changes filter through the astrology this week, which will settle the accounts on what has occurred during this most eventful month or two of your life. You've lived with considerable uncertainty and resistance, which you've endured so persistently that you got used to it. Allow things to settle down without any special need to stir them up again. Take some time and do what you want to do, rather than what you seemingly have to do. Most of all, allow and invite what you want to come to you, rather than thinking that you always must go to it. The Pisces Full Moon takes place Wednesday morning, and is just elegant in both its mysteries and what it reveals. Keep in mind that from the viewpoint of others, you're not so easy to understand or pin down to one point of view, though you can trust yourself, and people will trust you, for many other reasons.
