  • Mars in Taurus is at the top of the list as he turns retrograde on Saturday, October 1, 2005, at 6:04 p.m. until December 9, 2005. (Read more about the Mars station under the Aspects section of the report.) Vehicles and large equipment could malfunction with this change in direction. People are frustrated with financial complaints. Mars' change in direction appears with his partner Venus in the opposite sign of Scorpio (Mars is a ruler of Scorpio) and he occupies hers sign, Taurus. This is called a mutual reception - an agreeable circumstance that allows for cooperation in matters pertaining to men and women, partnership, finances and stability. There is money to be found, and deals to be made … but unleashing the funds is the issue. This mutual reception can be interpreted as a “one hand washes the other” situation, with bartering and favors as options. Bonuses are given rather than pay raises to appease workers. Both planets remain a focus for another major event this week - the Libra Solar Eclipse on Monday, October 3, 2005. The eclipse is visible in Greenland, Iceland, Europe, and most of Africa except the southern tip. It also appears in Asia, India and the Indian Ocean. Venus rules the sign of Libra as well. Her role is more public and vocal then her more traditional, quieter Taurean side. She represents the mate, partner and counselor. She arbitrates and brings matters to the table for negotiation. The Venus - Mars opposition is one of the tightest aspects in the chart of the Solar Eclipse. That describes the tight money conditions surrounding this eclipse. The Sun and Saturn are the tightest aspect in the eclipse chart, representing stability, status quo and infrastructure that are so necessary at this time. There is a need to employ those with solid leadership skills with integrity and dignity. Libra is a sign of higher standards. The implications are to move into a period of negotiation in order to mediate, merge and marry opposing forces or individuals for a higher goal. The retrograde Mars gives the implications of masculine energy withheld; I hope this will slow down the war and violence, although it may increase the intensity of these matters. Workers may not perform or perform properly with people walking off the job and acting on pride - not good sense.

    On Friday Venus moves on to greener pastures when she enters Sagittarius until November 5th, at which point she enters the practical sign of Capricorn. The Sun forms a dreamy trine to Neptune also on Friday. This gives me a very nice birthday and fine solar return (and a Sagittarius Lunar return as well), well equipped for my trip to England where I will present a series of lectures throughout the UK from October 22, 2005. I will post my schedule for those in the area who would like to hear my talks or book a reading while I am there through November 5, 2005.

    Retrograde and Direct Stations
    *Note - New Information Added; Includes Planetary Stationary Periods Surrounding the Change in Direction

    A Few Notes About A Planet Changing Direction
    Planets Turning Retrograde - Planets turning Direct

    At the time of a planet's change in direction the planet appears to halt in its path altogether. This halt, referred to as a "stationary" period is a time of great emphasis of the nature of that planet. This stationary interval marks a complex period of usually one to four weeks surrounding the date of a planetary station in either of its retrograde or direct motion. The stationary period is filled with the acute nature of the planet's energy bringing a stressed focus to the concerns under the planet's rulership as well as the sign occupied by the planet. We will be able to relate to this in regard to Saturn's current magnified presence. Before Saturn's energy begins to soften we will be submerged in the drama imposed by Pluto's up and coming retrograde station. On many occasions the degree is already a hot point that had been activated by an eclipse or another planet station. During the last week, Saturn station received a square from the solar eclipse on April 8th at 19° Aries, holding Saturn's domain on attention through the eclipse season which will last at least six weeks beyond this solar eclipse.

    For Personal use: Learn more about the people you may invite into your life.
    For Business: What in your current scenario holds the key to the next stage in your plan.

    MARS STATIONARY- TURNING RETROGRADE Oct 1 2005 THROUGH December 8, 2005
    When retrograde, Mars withholds energy and is far more deliberate effecting long term consequences or end results. As a signifier for the “man” it can indicate he is backing away, although in the sign of Taurus his goals are traditional. His intent is to acquire, secure and build up resources. He may be taking specific steps to insure a more comfortable future. Mars represents the individual drive, short term goals, motivation and the power of assertion. When pursuing your desires you are utilizing the Mars energy. Mars is the ruler of the masculine essence in all things, also known as the positive force as opposed to Venus’ receptive or negative force. Mars is specifically the ruler of men between the ages of 15-35, and it rules all matters of a masculine nature. Included topics are fast vehicles and trucks, battles, soldiers, guns and noise, just to name a few. Mars also rules cuts, blood and surgery. Consider stress, heat and anger. While Mars occupies the Venus ruled sign of Taurus, money, resources and the ability to earn are the issues. Health issues may include the throat area, vocal cords, thyroid gland, the neck and cervical spine with starch and sugar related illnesses. An increase in Venus ruled cosmetic and Mars ruled surgeries are likely. Mars when in Taurus and at a normal rate of motion has a plodding and deliberate nature. Add to that the apparent standstill status at this stationary point in its travels to apply patience for the slow wheels motion common at this time. Your talents and fine skills take center stage with an opportunity to show the world what you can do.

    The opposition of Mars and Venus at this retrograde station increases labor disputes and co-worker clashes. Legal matters could move slowly as the focus is placed on justice vs. injustice. When negotiations are necessary responses may not be as sharp when in direct opposition leading to indecisiveness, confusion and frustration. There is likely to be a drive toward acquisition vs. diplomacy. There is a need to engage in a negotiation agenda. Creativity functions at a higher level and love and romance becomes a mission with people coming together at a highly passionate time. People born with Mars in Taurus may be energized and become driven to take action in an area with nothing seemed to move. To gain the most ground, avoid pushy behavior. Taurus needs to be seduced into cooperation. Allow your opponent to believe your objectives are their idea and you are the best person for the job. Or simply plant an idea and walk away to allow the notion to be digested. Return with patience and the willingness to work slowly on the next step. Slow steady progress pays off here.

    This placement allows physicality to become stocky, sturdy and rugged with pronounced muscles. A focus on food and cooking adds to the quality of life along with the time shared with family. Fast food is not acceptable with a hungry bull arriving for dinner each day. An increase desire for sweets are Taurus ruled. Furniture is substantial and traditional. Furnishings are sensual and enduring with fabrics that are pleasing to touch.

    For personal use: More patience is needed with interpersonal relationships but love develops at a deeper level. Work with a physical trainer. Progress is noted with physical therapies.
    For business use: Slow steady progress pays off. Organize a social event to with great food to soften internal matters. Avoid being pushy.
