Antinous is a Moon God. He is, of course, many other things and he wears many hats. But one of the ways he was worshiped in Antiquity was as ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD.
His worshipers looked skyward and saw His beautiful face perpetually turned towards the Earth. The Man in the Moon was actually the Blessed Boy in the Moon for the ancient priests and worshipers of Antinous. Swiftest and most youthful of all the Zodiacal deities, Antinous speeds through an entire year's worth of Astrological signs in just 28 days.
ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD represents our deepest personal needs, our basic habits and reactions, and our unconscious gay selves. Where Hadrian the Sun acts, Antinous the Moon REACTS. How do we instinctively react or respond to problems? What do we feel we need for a sense of security? Look to ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD for answers.
ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD is both our inner boy child and our inner lover. His ever changing phases, as he sweeps past all the other Planets in all the Signs, make us at turns responsive, receptive, and reflective. Eternally youthful, ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD represents our childlike spontaneous and instinctual reactions.
ANTINOUS THE MOON GOD beams down on us to make us imaginative, creative, intuitive, sentimental, adaptable, introspective, and protective. On the negative side, and depending on where he is in the Zodiac, he can make us moody, restless, and irrational.

THURS-FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26th-27th, 2023
This week, Mercury aligns with Mars to enhance assertiveness self-expression even as Mars moves into opposition to Jupiter for the first time in two years. Mars opposite Jupiter increases your self-confidence and desire to win. Wanting more out of life, you will be willing to take risks to get there. With a "who dares, wins" attitude you can certainly have your desires fulfilled now and enjoy success. This is one of the luckiest opposition transits of all but it can also bring your undoing if you get selfish, overconfident or you over stretch your resources. You will feel adventurous, strong and competitive and should back yourself. However, it is most important to also remember self-control, humility and patience. Your natural tendency will be to act on the spur of the moment and risk it all. You will feel sure of yourself because of increased strength, courage and popularity. This is a sexy energy and you will attract a lot of attention if dating or socializing in general. Be considerate of the needs of others and try to blend some cooperation in with your increased competitiveness. In this way you will be sure to succeed and have your strongest desires fulfilled. So long as you don’t over-estimate your abilities and resources you can achieve success in business, romance, politics and sports.
SAT-SUNDAY, OCTOBER 28th-29th, 2023
This weekend, we come to a partial lunar eclipse during the TAURUS FULL MOON. That is the lunar phase which, in Antinous Moon Magic, is called the HADRIAN's VILLA MOON. This is a way for Antinous the Gay God to help you find your spiritual home, the celestial palace you have made for yourself. This Moon is aimed at helping you focus and center your spiritual heart.

This week, you might want to purchase a lottery ticket when Venus forms a trine aspect with winner-take-all Uranus. Not only is this a fortuitous configuration good for making money, but it also greatly enhances chances of love and romance. So, go ahead — take a chance on love.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31st, 2023
This week, the Sun is in direct opposition to Jupiter, causing a sense of over-exuberance, over-exaggeration and over-exertion in all areas. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing ... but the coming weeks will show whether you bit off more than you can handle.
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1st, 2023
This week, be careful about the person you take home from the clubs because Venus is in 180-degree opposition to dreamy Neptune. The Venus/Neptune opposition means you may see romantic situations through heliotrope-colored glasses which blind you to unpleasant realities. You wake up the next morning to the stark and naked truth.
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2nd, 2023
This week, Mercury is in opposition to Uranus, igniting spontaneous verbal explosions. Pent-up anger bursts out into all-out armed conflict. This is a classic textbook recipe for terrorist attacks. It definitely spells trouble for the world's hot spots. The threat of assassination looms large, as does the danger of terrorism. You need to be on guard for outbursts of rage. The important thing is to be aware where your rage is coming from. Don't vent your rage on innocent victims. Instead, be consciously aware of the source of your anger so that you can harness the powerful energies to carry out constructive projects you have been stalling on for way too long.

This weekend, the year 2023 gets a reboot when Saturn turns around in space and goes Direct ("forward" as seen from Earth) again for the first time since it went Retrograde on 17 June 2023. As Saturn retraced its steps over the last five months, we all revisited issues and problems in our lives which needed to be remedied before we move on. Saturn, the school teacher of the Zodiac, forced you to sit down and complete your homework before moving forward to the next class. Now, with Saturn moving forward again, this means a breakthrough in logjams in Aquarius Saturn topics such as karmic trust issues in relationships, business partnerships and legal matters. You will see progress again in those areas and can make new commitments and set lofty new goals.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3rd, 2023
This weekend, we come to the Leo Third Quarter Moon, which is called the BACCHANALIA MOON in Antinous Moon Magic for its gifts of transcendence ... This Lunar Phase reflects those festivals of peering into other worlds and states of being ... a restless time of high-spirited indulgence, sometimes fun, sometimes slightly scary and always capable of unleashing powerful spirits ... On a mundane level, it refers to putting on a disguise and "having a good time". On a spiritual level, it refers to entering an altered state to commune with the divine, thus this Lunar Phase is the best time of the year for trance visions.
SNEAK PREVIEW OF NEXT WEEK:
Another exciting week lies ahead between November 6th and 12th, 2023, when we come to the SCORPIO NEW MOON. In Antinous Moon Magic this lunar phase is called the ZELUS MOON of fear, angst and anxiety ... and using Antinous Moon Magic to triumph over fear ... More details next time ....
