Astro Forecast: Sept. 26 — Oct. 6, 2013

SEPT. 26 to OCT. 6, 2013

---

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 26th 2013

On Thursday you might want to purchase a lottery ticket when Venus is in a trine with lucky Jupiter. Not only is this Venus/Jupiter configuration good for making mone, but it also greatly enhances chances of love and romance. So, go ahead — take a chance on love.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 27th 2013

Overnight Thursday/Friday we come to the CANCER THIRD QUARTER MOON. In Antinous Gay Moon Magic this is the powerful DISCORDIA MOON of light vs. darkness ... rage and anger! Anger can be a powerful ally or a terrible enemy. Meditations and rituals during the Discordia Moon can help you in identifying the role anger plays in your life and restoring it to its proper function so that it can bring new energy and expansiveness to your emotional life.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 28th 2013

On Saturday the reverberations of the DISCORDIA MOON boil over into relationship tensions when love planet Venus is at right angles to war god Mars. On the global level, this is a recipe for rioting in the streets. On the personal level, it can spell a relationship crisis. But there is a silver lining when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD aligns with lucky Jupiter ... you'll be glad you bought that lottery ticket.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 29th 2013

On Sunday Mercury wings his way out of airy Libra and plunges into the murky depths of Scorpio to do some investigative reporting for the next few weeks. Scorpio Mercury dredges up all the mud and muck that has been concealing the truth. On the global level, you can expect public revelations of dark secrets. And on the personal level, you can expect to see which of your friends are faithful and will stick by you when the chips are down — and which ones will back off and just leave you standing there alone.

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 30th 2013

On Monday Mercury your work week begins with vim and vigor when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a lively trine to anything-goes Uranus. You are bubbling over with ideas and enthusiasm is infectious among your coworkers.

TUESDAY OCTOBER 1st 2013

Tuesday promises to be a daydreamy sort of day when Scorpio Mercury is in a trine with vague and dreamy Neptune. You will need to be careful not to misinterpret casual remarks when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a tense aspect to Venus. Scorpio Mercury has a sharp tongue.

WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY OCTOBER 2nd/3rd 2013

On Wednesday and Thursday tensions run high when our old friends Uranus and Pluto square off at right angles — again — as they have several times in recent months. Revolutions and economic chaos have been the result. This week, however, Uranus/Pluto have embroiled the Sun in their clash. On the personal level, this configuration puts the spotlight on personal relationships. On the one hand, Uranus is urging you to break free of all restrictions. But on the other hand, Pluto warns you to stand fast and not make any hasty moves, but instead to dig in your heels for the long haul. This results in massive feelings of guilt and fear — fear of what might happen either way. Become aware of where this fear is coming from (from guilt) and you can find a constructive way to appese both Uranus and Pluto without wrecking your relationship.

FRIDAY/SATURDAY OCTOBER 4th/5th 2013

Overnight Friday/Saturday the moon joins the Uranus/Pluto fray when it aligns with the Sun for the LIBRA NEW MOON ... the Lunar Phase we call the TRIPOD MOON in Antinous Moon Magic in honor of the clouds of incense with which three-footed incense braziers filled the Ancient Temples of Antinous. The clouds of incense created a sacred other-worldly atmosphere of intoxication and purification ... but made rational decision-making difficult. If you are having trouble "seeing the fog", the Libra New Moon will show you where the confusion lies.

SUNDAY OCTOBER 6th 2013

On Sunday the turmoil of recent days settles a bit when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD forms positive configurations with ambitious Mars and inspirational Neptune. You perceive ways to improve things around you and you feel determined to do something.

SNEAK PREVIEW OF NEXT WEEK:

Another exciting week lies ahead between October 7th and 13th when you should reflect on business and career opportunities during the CAPRICORN FIRST QUARTER MOON. In Antinous Moon Magic, we call this the MERCHANT MOON which offers you an opportunity to reap the benefits of your hard work — and find new opportunities for material advancement. More details next time ....

THE DISCORDIA MOON THE CANCER THIRD QUARTER MOON

DISCORDIA is the deity we honor during tonight's Cancer Third Quarter Moon, which occurs after the Autumnal Equinox and heralds the onset of Winter in the Northern Hemisphere. For our brothers in the Southern Hemisphere the Discordia Moon signals that hot days will soon be here.

In Antinous Moon Magic, each Lunar Phase represents a Divine Spirit or Archetype. The Spirit of the Discordia Moon is the Spirit of Rage and Fury. It is the embodiment of wrathfulness, exasperation, irritation, dudgeon, bile, gall, malice, combativeness and irascibility. It is as mad as can be and has no more patience.

The key words are: Rage. Wrath. Anger. Dispute. Fighting. Intense Annoyance. Aggravation. Aggression. Conflict. War.

This Lunar Phase takes in all "rage issues" from annoyance with a loud neighbor to all-out physical altercations.

In ages past, this was when the gypsy fortune-teller would do a reading for a young man, saying, "War is coming and you must fight!"

On a psychological level, meditations during this Lunar Phase show where your anger or aggression lies in a reading. On a gay spiritual level, it shows where you need to stand up and assert yourself.

Anger can be a powerful ally, since it is filled with energy that we can harness and use to create change in the world.

It is one of the most cathartic emotions, and it can also be a very effective cleanser of the emotional system.

However, when it becomes a habit, it actually loses its power to transform and becomes an obstacle to growth.

Meditations and rituals during the Discordia Moon can help you in identifying the role anger plays in your life and restoring it to its proper function so that it can bring new energy and expansiveness to your emotional life.

THE HOMOTHEOSIS MOON THE SEXY-SPIRITUAL PISCES FULL MOON

THE PISCES FULL MOON represents the sexual/spiritual energy we call the HOMOTHEOSIS MOON.

Each lunar phase represents a Divine Spirit or Archetype. The Spirit of the Homotheosis Moon is the Spirit of Gay Sex.

This Spirit is libidinous and rapacious, with a sexual appetite which can never be sated. This Spirit is constantly on the prowl, continually cruising and it never ever, even for an instant ceases to think about and yearn for sex.

This Spirit knows that Gay Sexuality is a means to achieving Gay Spirituality and that Homosexuality is in itself Divine. HOMOTHEOSIS – Gay-Man-Godliness-Becoming-The-Same.

Homotheosis is the sacredness of being gay...it is Gay Consciousness...the realization of transcendence and bliss, the power and beauty of homosexual fire, spread everywhere, throughout the cosmos...the gay spirit that has existed since the beginning of time...which came into being in the body and soul of Antinous.

Homotheosis is a process of becoming as much like Antinous as one possibly can, of seeking to cultivate an Antinous-growth within one's own heart, of gazing out upon the world with the eyes of a passerby

This is the mystery of the Cosmic Love, where the Lover and the Beloved are united in a spirit that is more than coexistent, being of one substance. Homotheosis is the blessed state in which Gay Man and Antinous are undifferentiated.

Homotheosis is the Power and Blessing of Being Gay.

The PISCES FULL MOON enhances deep and soulful passion. This Lunar Phase is best suited for magical rituals aimed at harnessing sexual energy for gay spiritual purposes.

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 19th 2013

On Thursday we celebrate the Pisces Full Moon. In heterosexual astrology, the Pisces Full Moon is just a moon of sensual spiritual energy. But in Antinous Gay Moon Magic, this is the HOMOTHEOSIS MOON ... the archetype of gay sexuality ... when your sexual dreams can come true. It may be time to take your relationship to a whole new level when love planet Venus aligns in perfect conjunction with intensely serious Saturn. These configurations help you to deepen your love relationships in meaningful ways, making constructive compromises which allow each partner freedom while strengthening the bonds which unite you both.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 20th 2013

On Friday Pluto does an about-face and changes directions, sending shock waves around the world. For the past six months, Pluto, the planet of renewal, transformation, and rebirth, has been retrograde, forcing us all to reflect on past choices and start clearing out the cob webs. But that all changes when Pluto goes direct on September 20th in the sign of Capricorn. Pluto going direct will make you take responsibility for who you are and who you want to become. Direct Pluto will lend power, passion and depth to any new endeavors that have been waiting on the back burner for the past six months.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 21st 2013

On Saturday Saturn forms a sextile with Pluto to shine a spotlight on problem areas in your life — as well as on the areas of your life where there are no problems. This Saturn/Pluto sextile allows you to see reality around you clearly so that you can focus on constructive ways of fixing the things that need fixing. But remember: If it ain't broken, don't try to fix it.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd 2013

On Sunday the Sun leaves anxious Virgo and sails into laid-back Libra for the Equinox. This is when we celebrate the PERSEPHONEA when the Sun enters the first degree of Libra. In the Northern Hemisphere this is the Autumnal Equinox ushering in autumn. For our brothers in the Southern Hemisphere, this is the Vernal Equinox and spring is on the way — the jacarandas will soon be in bloom. Wherever you live, this is one of two days each year when daytime and nighttime are equal. It is time to reflect on balance in your own life.

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 23rd 2013

On Monday the work week gets off to a hectic start when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD squares off against Mars and forms a positive trine with exuberant Jupiter. Watch out that you don't bite off more than you can chew.

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 24th 2013

On Tuesday the general atmosphere is upbeat and productive when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a gentle trine with the Libra Sun, but later in the day you may feel moody and have a hard time focusing your attention on work when the Moon is in a sextile to dreamy Neptune.

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 25th 2013

On Wednesday spontaneity and action are the key words when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD forms trines with impulsive Uranus and assertive Mars.

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 26th 2013

On Thursday you might want to purchase a lottery ticket when Venus is in a trine with lucky Jupiter. Not only is this Venus/Jupiter configuration good for making mone, but it also greatly enhances chances of love and romance. So, go ahead — take a chance on love.

Thursday is a good day to make travel plans when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is at right angles to both the Sun. In ANTINOUS MOON MAGIC this is the SAGITTARIUS FIRST QUARTER MOON which we call the EQUESTRIAN MOON — the Lunar Phase we associate with spiritual movement and progress, astral travel and astral projection. On the material level, this Lunar Phase is excellent for making travel plans and for carrying out rituals for a safe journey with bountiful spiritual rewards.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 13th 2013

This Friday the 13th could be your lucky day in love. You get a jump-start on the weekend when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a sexy sextile with horny Scorpio Venus and also with dreamy Neptune. Trust your romantic instincts when you go out clubbing Friday night.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 14th 2013

On Saturday a wild and woolly weekend gets underway when Venus is in a trine with Neptune, Mars is in a trine with unpredictable Uranus and ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in opposition to exaggeration-prone Jupiter. Be careful not to butt your head against a wall and insist on getting your way, because things tend to backfire in unexpected ways. On top of it all, Mercury is at right angles to Pluto, an aspect which encourages con men to try to pull a fast one on gullible souls. If you are gullible, then watch out. If you are a con man, then this is your day to shine.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 15th 2013

On Sunday this wild and woolly weekend slowly winds down to a more gentle pace when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a 90-degree square angle to Scorpio Venus. Don't let unfounded jealousy or envy get in the way of a pleasant day with a special friend.

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 16th 2013

On Monday get ready for a "Eureka!" experience when Mercury is in opposition to Uranus — just the right word will occur to you at just the right moment.

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 17th 2013

Tuesday is the perfect day for a job interview or for a presentation of a special project. Mercury is in a good sextile to Mars to help you get your point across articulately and strongly to others, and ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD aligns with intuitive Neptune to give you a genuine insight into what others want to hear.

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 18th 2013

On Wednesday it may be time to take your relationship to a whole new level when love planet Venus aligns in perfect conjunction with intensely serious Saturn as meanwhile ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD forms beneficent aspects with Venus/Saturn, Jupiter and Pluto.

THE EQUESTRIAN MOON OF ANTINOUS THE SAGITTARIUS FIRST QUARTER MOON

TONIGHT Antinous the Moon God is in his first quarter in the lofty sign of Sagittarius, the sign of travellers, voyagers, pilgrims and those who embark on Gay Spiritual Quests.

In Antinous Moon Magic, each lunar phase represents a spiritual archetype. We call this First Quarter Sagittarius Moon the EQUESTRIAN MOON.

The Equestrian Moon is the best night of the year for blessings involving travel. 

Bless your faithful car, bike, boat -- or your beloved horse! 

This is the day to meditate or do a ritual involving a house move, change of jobs or relocation. 

On a deeper level, this lunar phase speaks of your spiritual movement, astral travel and astral projection -- this Moon says: "Try it, you can do it!" 

Here's a lovely depiction of the Equestrian Moon symbolism from Italian artist Giorgio Tavaglione's L'ORACOLO DELLA SIBILLA oracle cards.

MERCURY IN LAID-BACK LIBRA IN SEPTEMBER LAZY LIAR? OR AVID DIPLOMAT? BOTH!

MERCURY leaves fastidious Virgo today and wings his way into laid-back Libra ... to sit back and chill and lounge around to Trance music from now until September 28th.

Depending on your own star sign, Libra Mercury may cause you some difficulty making decisions and getting work done and generally finding your way through the highways and byways of life.

Libra Mercury gets a bad reputation for being lazy, indecisive, two-faced and a downright liar. But it's not true! Well, actually, it IS a bit true ... but also not true ... both true and not true at the same time.

And that is exactly how Libra Mercury sees everything ... he sees both sides to every question ... he sees two people (or two nations) arguing and he sees that both sides are partly right ... and both sides are also partly wrong.

The image at the top of this blog entry ... "A Study Of Mercury" by Isodore Pils ... perfectly captures Libra Mercury's impartial detachment as he looks at the world and sees all sides to every issue ... and yearns for harmony and beauty.

Libra Mercury helps to give you a balanced view of the world. He enhances your skills at mediating a compromise which is beneficial to both sides ... and beneficial to you.

Libra Mercury loves harmony and balance so much that he tries to please everybody. So you may find yourself tacitly agreeing with people on both sides of an argument. That infuriates both sides, of course, and both sides accuse you of being two-faced.

In fact, you may not have agreed with either side. You wanted to tell both sides to take a hike. You only nodded in tacit agreement just to shut them up and avert open conflict. 

The result is that you end up being caught in the middle ... a plight that Sun Sign Librans know all too well. 

So the down side of Libra Mercury is that decision-making is more difficult. You look at a restaurant menu and it ALL looks so good that you can't make up your mind ... again, a plight that Sun Sign Librans know all too well.

But the up side of Libra Mercury is that you are open to new experiences ... you pick a menu item you have never eaten before ... and it turns out to be delicious. You are driving along your regular route home from work and suddenly turn off down another street you have never explored before ... and you discover places which turn out to be wonderful.

As for being lazy ... that is also partly false ... and yet also partly true. Libra Mercury is very industrious when it comes to something that is interesting, pleasant or lovely. So you may find yourself beavering away at some fabulous project with your mind and soul concentrated solely on that fab project.

Meanwhile, boring and tedious tasks fall by the wayside. You may conveniently "forget" to do things which are uninteresting to you. 

Mercury Libra is the artistic genius who creates the most exquisitely inspiring art ... and yet who lives in absolute squalor and filth. Art is intensely interesting to him ... but housekeeping is intensely boring, so he "forgets" to do any house cleaning.

Sun Sign Librans are experts at "forgetting" unpleasant or uninteresting things.

THE PLOTINA MOON VIRGO NEW MOON

TONIGHT's Virgo New Moon is the lunar phase which, in Antinous Moon Magic, is called the PLOTINA MOON in honor of Emperor Trajan's wife, the Empress Plotina, who lobbied on Hadrian's behalf, ensuring he would be Trajan's successor.

Hadrian was a favorite of Plotina's and she did everything in her power to further his career and to position him to succeed her husband Trajan as emperor. Indeed, it is said that, upon Trajan's death, Plotina forged his signature on a will naming Hadrian as his successor.

It has been speculated that she and Hadrian were lovers, though his preference for males and their age difference (she was old enough to be his mother) may make that speculation seem a bit far-fetched.

Whatever the case, Plotina showered Hadrian with love, favors and the wealth of her insights into the machinations and workings of the inner coterie surrounding the Emperor.

Thanks to Plotina's tutelage, Hadrian was well-equipped to become emperor.

Each lunar phase represents a Divine Spirit or Archetype. The Spirit of the Plotina Moon is the Spirit of the Crone, the Wise Woman, the White Witch, the Great Mother Isis. She is a Spirit Guide.

She is not maternal like a mother, but instead she is more of a doting grandmother or great aunt. This Spirit has seen everything, been everywhere and experienced everything.

Life has few surprises left for this Spirit, and yet she marvels anew at each bright new day of discovery. There is always something yet to be discovered, some new secret to be unveiled, some riddle to be solved.

The Spirit of Plotina is ever seeking to reveal all and to share her vast grimoire of secret knowledge with her favorite protege.

The Virgo New Moon comes at the end of summer in the Northern Hemisphere when crops have been harvested and leaves are beginning to fall and the heat of summer wanes. In the Southern Hemisphere, this is the New Moon signalling a time to put away winter clothes and plant for spring with the knowledge you have gained during the winter.

It is the same New Moon, and ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD gazes down on both hemispheres. The days are getting shorter and the days are getting longer. Yet, our Lunar Deity invites us to look beyond the calendar to seek the wisdom that the PLOTINA MOON has to offer us, wherever we live.

The key words for the PLOTINA MOON are: Wisdom. Experience. Magnanimity. Old Age. Wise Woman. Vast Intelligence.

This lunar phase represents deep inner wisdom that comes from the "school of hard knocks".

This is the wise old "curandera" (white witch) who needs no books or rituals because the magic is deep down inside her soul. She and the magic are one and the same.

On a superficial level, this lunar phase is a time to honor to an older person, an old gay wizard, for example, who is influential in your life. On a deeper level, it is inviting you to become better acquainted with the ancient "curandero" (gay wizard) in your soul.

On Thursday we come to the Virgo New Moon. This is the lunar phase which, in Antinous Moon Magic, is called the PLOTINA MOON in honor of Emperor Trajan's wife, the Empress Plotina, who lobbied on Hadrian's behalf, ensuring he would be Hadrian's successor. The Spirit of the Plotina Moon is the Spirit of the Crone, the Wise Woman, the White Witch, the Great Mother Isis. But "she" is a Spirit Guide who transcends gender — she is the ancient gay wizard in your soul.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 6th 2013

On Friday the work week comes to a somewhat bitchy end when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD aligns in conjunction with Mercury in persnickety Virgo. Your co-workers tend to place too much emphasis on trivial or minor details, are overly fussy and generally just, well, bitchy. Naturally, you will not be overly critical of them — since you are the epitome of grace and tact.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 7th 2013

On Saturday you might want to buy a lottery ticket when the Sun forms a sextile with lucky Jupiter and ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in opposition to anything-can-happen Uranus. The strangest things can work out to your advantage.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 8th 2013

On Sunday over-indulgence in the good things of life is very possible when the Sun is in perfect alignment with Venus and both are in a 90-degree square angle to exaggeration-prone Jupiter. Well, you know what Oscar Wilde (Saint of Antinous) once said: "Nothing succeeds like excess!"

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 9th 2013

On Monday Mercury leaves conscientious Virgo and enters indecisive Libra, meaning that making decisions will be a challenge during the next few weeks. Meanwhile, aggressive Mars is at right angles to stubborn Saturn, which is like driving with one foot on the brake and the other on the accelerator pedal. Indecision and frustration — what a way to start the work week!

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 10th 2013

Tuesday is possibly the best day of the week when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is in a trine with lucky Jupiter and a happy sextile with the Sun. Enjoy the good vibes.

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 11th 2013

On Wednesday Venus leaves harmony-loving Libra and plunges into the dark waters of Scorpio for a month or so of soul-searching and suspicion. Scorpio Venus pulls back the veil of deceit and gets right to the nitty-gritty of every relationship. On the positive side, this encourages you to ensure that your relationships are profoundly meaningful. On the negative side, you may find yourself being over-suspicious and jealous for no good reason.

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 12th 2013

Thursday is a good day to make travel plans when ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is at right angles to both the Sun. In ANTINOUS MOON MAGIC this is the SAGITTARIUS FIRST QUARTER MOON which we call the EQUESTRIAN MOON — the Lunar Phase we associate with spiritual movement and progress, astral travel and astral projection.

SNEAK PREVIEW OF NEXT WEEK:

Another exciting week lies ahead between September 16th and 22nd when we celebrate the Pisces Full Moon. In heterosexual astrology, the Pisces Full Moon is just a moon of sensual spiritual energy. But in Antinous Gay Moon Magic, this is the HOMOTHEOSIS MOON ... the archetype of gay sexuality. More details next time ....
