The best way through is to keep breathing, deeply, until you feel grounded. As always, remember to listen respectfully to your fellow travelers. You may not agree, but you can still respect your common humanity.

The source of lively discussion is a trine between a Mars/Mercury/Venus conjunction and Neptune. When Mars Mercury, and Venus share the same space minds move into overdrive. Neptune represents imagination, and its positive presence makes the power of mind is primary. And while we’re on the subject: Mercury goes retrograde from September 24-October 15, so start to prepare now. Back up everything before the September 20.

The mounting tension riding the surface of daily interactions is attributable to the building Saturn/Uranus opposition that is exact on November 4. This opposition is a rare occurrence. It hasn’t happened since the 60s, when it took place five times between 1965 and 1967. This current series of oppositions also occurs five times from November 2008 through July 2010. The prior cycle, 1965-1967, were years of tumultuous non-stop upheaval. The coming cycle, 2008-2010, is too.
The keywords of this opposition are “challenge to the status quo.” But doesn’t necessarily translate into “power to the people.” The status quo has become so skilled at spin that the people keep getting fooled again and again and again.

I promised last week I would write about the Saturn/Uranus opposition during the next several weeks—and I will. But before launching that series, I need to explain why I’m taking such a strong political stand.
