The Sun is now in Libra!
Libra is the sign of the good the true and the beautiful; of balance, proportion, and equipoise; peace, love and harmony; fairness and justice; the golden rule, the golden mean; of Apollo, Aphrodite and Adonis .. Here are some favourite quotes to evoke the essence of Libra: “The way is perfect like vast space, where nothing is lacking and nothing is in excess” – The Book of Nothing “Life is relationship. To be is to be related, and without relationship there is no life” - J. Krishnamurti “Beauty is truth and truth is beauty. That is all you know on earth and all you need to know” - Jonathan Keats “The purpose of life is to be at peace, to love all beings, and to know who you are” - Papaji [Sun sign Libra]
Astro-Update: Mars in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus
This is the major planetary alignment for the week, the third in a series of 3 that began with the entry of Uranus into Taurus in mid-May. It is guaranteed to shake up and destabilize the foundations of all who have planets in the early degrees of the fixed signs Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Here's a short overview of the powers of Mars and Uranus followed by a list of probable manifestations of their dynamic interaction.
Mars: to know what you want and how to get it, leadership, courage, drive, initiative, ‘juice’, daring, ability to live on the edge, to take risks, to live dangerously, to stand up for yourself, to tackle the hard stuff, heroism
Uranus: freedom from conditioning, individuality, insight, the clear light of truth, the ‘aha’ experience, sudden revelation, enlightenment, liberation, invention, genius, brilliance, spiritual rebellion, technology of the sacred - volatility, uncertainty, the ground shifting beneath our feet - a sustained build up of tension resulting in a sudden, explosive release of energy - breakdown or breakthrough; forcible cracking open of existing structures; fault-lines exposed - The Tower Tarot Card - “I’m just not going to take it or do it anymore” - defiance; rebellion; taking a stand; refusal to back down; furious resistance - radical dance moves; original, experimental movement - sexual freedom, experimentation - outliers; black swan events; tectonic shifts; earthquakes.

Mars re-enters Aquarius today, Sep 11. Here’s my take on how it may express in those born with this placement. "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world and that is an idea whose time has come" - Victor Hugo
The god of war in the sign of big picture ideas and ideals produces the freedom fighters, culture warriors, and ideological crusaders of the zodiac. Armed with the courage of conviction, this Mars will dare to be different, rather than conform to the expectations of others or the established ways of doing things. Intolerant of intolerance, these natural born rebels insist on the freedom of each and everyone to live as they see fit, and abhor stupidity, prejudice and injustice with a passion. Thus they make willing activists who will readily engage in protest and confrontation in the pursuit of a cause, perhaps needing to realize that people of equal sincerity and conviction can legitimately hold opposing views. Friendship is important to them. Without it, they can easily become estranged outsiders who don’t fit in anywhere. What really inspires them is joining together with like-minds to work on cutting edge projects to make the world a better place. Sexually, they take an open and experimental approach, and insist that what takes place in the bedroom is nobody's business but their own.
Quotes "Our unwillingness to see our faults and the projection of them onto others is the source of most quarrels, and the strongest guarantee that injustice, animosity and persecution will not easily die out."
- Jung "What is a rebel? A man who says no."
- Camus "I don't personally trust any revolution where love is not allowed"
- Maya Angelou "Planetary service is the basis of the new time. Ask not what you can do for yourself, your religion or your country, but what you can do for your planet."
- Jose Arguelles

This Virgo New Moon is harmoniously aligned to prosperity planet of expansion Jupiter in Scorpio and underground wealth planet Pluto in Capricorn whilst being opposed by planet of visionary imagination Neptune in Pisces. This is a rich, fertile combination of the elements of earth and water. Seeds planted at this time are likely to grow and flower abundantly under the attentive care-full hands of the Virgo earth mother.
However the course of true love may not run smooth because Venus now in deep, dark and intense Scorpio is opposing shake up-wake up freedom insistent Uranus whilst both are being challenged by red planet Mars, the god of war and passion! “I’m in love, I’m all shook up” segues abruptly into “You and I dance to the beat of a different drum, can’t you tell by the way I run every time you make eyes at me” potentially leaving one partner angry and upset and the other defiantly out of there.

Astro-Update: September Astrology
Two planets of movement, both mental and physical, Mercury and Mars are now in direct motion, soon to be joined by Saturn, the planet of delays and slow motion turning direct on September 6. With Jupiter the planet of fortune also in direct motion, the portents are that September will be the month of a Great Leap Forward after a testing Eclipse season that for many proved to be a winter of discontent. Much positive progress can now be achieved.
Venus and Mars change signs this month so the dance of love and relating is sure to feature some new and challenging steps after Venus enters Scorpio on the 9th and Mars re-enters Aquarius on the 11th. All or nothing says Venus. Don’t tell me what to do or how to be says Mars. A creative integration of passion and independence is being called forth.
Detoxing benefits from Mercury entering health sign Virgo, the sign it rules on Sep 6 and the Virgo New Moon occurring on Sep 10 at 4:01 am AEST. Virgo is associated with digestion and the New Moon is the time to set intentions and action plans to cleanse and purify body, mind and spirit. For according to Virgo the body is the temple of the spirit. So time to nourish the spirit by feeding the body temple only clean healthy food and to free the mind of limiting negative thoughts by engaging in a daily meditation practice.
