OCTOBER
2004 by Bob Mulligan
Relationships
are the key to this month. Every important connection
we have with people is undergoing some important alterations
in October. People in both our personal and professional
lives seem to be changing the way they interact with
us. We participated in our natural pattern of relating
being put on a whole new footing at the end of September.
Now in October, with both New and Full Moon being
eclipses, we will find a little change will not be
enough. Real transformation must begin. The New Moon
in Libra on the 14th gives us an opportunity to selectively
cement aspects of last months changes. The Full Moon
on the Scorpio/Taurus axis on the 28th generates incredible
completion energy. This is a time of self analysis.
Values in transition are the power behind the personal
changes. Relaxing is the best way to help the transition
all month.
Our
enthusiasm comes and goes several times from the 1st
to the 7th. Like the tides, there is a distinct rhythm
to our moods and emotions now. This intermittent function
of our energy is reflective of our inner process as
we try to integrate the flood of new information from
last month. We are regrouping.
From
the 7th to the 14th we are re-evaluating and seeing
what has to stay and what has to go. Sorting out key
responsibilities is more difficult during this time
but is quite necessary in order to live consciously.
From
the 14th to the 21st we are buffeted by large forces.
It is hard to be consistent and our projects seem
unmanageable. Be flexible and pay attention to what
other people need.
From
the 21stto the 28th we strive to complete several
important projects. Be sure to limit your activity
to the achievable now.
The
last four days of the month find us juggling several
aspects of our lives and trying to adjust to the change
in circumstances in our personal relationships.
1st
Friday Mercury Parallel Mars and Contra-parallel
Jupiter, Mars Contra-parallel Jupiter - We are all
furiously trying to catch up on material generated
during the last week of September. We seek harmony
and winning simultaneously. Only a higher vision and
acting from the heart can prevent conflict. Be ready
to engage others and live in the moment. Your higher
purpose can sustain you now.
2nd
- Saturday Be willing to listen to others; they
can help you. The enthusiasm of the moment can help
to build procedures that lead to better goals in the
future.
3rd
Sunday Venus enters Virgo - You can tap into a
gentle spirit of compromise today. It is possible
to have goals materialize in an incredibly specific
manner. Be willing to take the time aside to plan
in detail what you want to have happen next.
4th
Monday We start the new week being hampered by
old problems. However, we have changed aspects of
our own identity during the last month. It is possible
to get a new look and a new strategy for dealing with
given circumstances.
5th
Tuesday Venus Semi-sextile Jupiter, Mercury Trine
Neptune, Sun Conjunct Mercury, Venus Contra-parallel
Uranus - With effort and discretion we are able to
materialize some long held visions of a better life.
Minor last minute adjustments are possible for those
who see opportunity and seize it.
6th
Wednesday Venus Opposite Uranus, Jupiter on the
ecliptic going south - Our contradictions emerge as
the day of rapid and exciting changes holds us in
its spell. To be in tune with the environment and
move with the current of pre-existing circumstances
allows us to be most effective now.
7th
Thursday - Be willing to wait; mark time. Emotions
tend toward the solemn side now. Dont fight the flow
of emotions, or even the lack of them. Relax, you
will see opportunity where it looked like none existed.
Be willing to make slow steady progress toward the
distant goals.
8th
Friday Sun Parallel Mercury, then Mercury Sesquiquadrate
Uranus - Be conscious of what you ask for today. Some
things put forward will instantaneously manifest.
Some other things will come about through time. All
thoughts have meaning in them. Everything can be amplified
now.
9th
Saturday Mercury Sextile Pluto - Say what you
need to say. Directly connecting with others is especially
potent now. This is a great time for seeing if your
beliefs, words, and actions agree with each other.
10th
- Sunday Jupiter Quincunx Uranus - Adjusting to
others is the most important consideration now. Share
your love in a very practical manner. Acts of kindness
will give you positive feelings about yourself, others,
and life.
11th
- Monday Sun Sesquiquadrate Uranus, Mercury Contra-parallel
Venus - Rapid changes can turn violent today. Be at
peace within yourself, then you can help others.
12th
Tuesday Venus Semi-sextile Mars, Sun Sextile Pluto
- Its the start of a new dimension in the area of
relationships. Be willing to explore and then wait.
What is present right now is just a passing show.
In the long run, something deep within us is changing.
13th
Wednesday Sun Contra-parallel Venus, Venus Semi-square
Saturn, Mercury Square Saturn, a New Moon Eclipse
at 21 Libra at 10:49 PM EDT - Go with the flow of
the river now. Turn your attention inward. Be at peace.
Now is the time between the ending of one thing and
the beginning of the next.
14th
Thursday. Venus Quincunx Neptune, Mercury Semi-square
Venus - This is rectification time. There are important
pieces of information that must be communicated to
others. Even if you lack energy and enthusiasm for
the tasks, go the extra mile today so that basic things
are taken care of.
15th
Friday Mercury Parallel Uranus, Mars Trine Neptune,
Mercury enters Scorpio - Tune in to the subtle atmosphere
around. New information, as well as old information
perceived in a new way, can change important factors
in your life. As key people show up, we are able to
address unfinished business.
16th
Saturday Take a breather. The nature of the world
we experience is too fast paced to be altered. We
must change in order to adapt.
17th
Sunday - Mercury Trine Uranus - Our emotions power
our intuitions. We can make rapid progress. Pay attention.
We have much being offered from inner planes of consciousness.
Old wounds can be healed if we take the initiative.
18th
Monday Mercury Semi-sextile Jupiter - We struggle
to get our ideas communicated today. Others are interested
in what we have to say, it is still hard to get our
thoughts out in a consistent manner.
19th
Tuesday Mercury Semi-square Pluto, Venus Contra-parallel
Mars, Sun Square Saturn - Avoid letting the scope
of the project stop you from taking the first steps.
Take the initiative and others will help you. You
are not alone. Even when you feel that you have come
to the end of the line, there are golden fields of
wonder to be explored.
20th
Wednesday Venus Square Pluto - Relax and let go.
If you try and take shortcuts today, you will be stopped.
Forget the little details and aim at making peace
with your own conflicting values.
21st
Thursday - Sun Parallel Uranus - A nervous excitement
leads us toward a new discovery. Acts of kindness
pay big dividends.
22nd
Friday Sun enters Scorpio - Emotions run high.
There is a determination that seems to set the tone
of everything we do. For the observant there is a
solution to the current issues in front of us.
23rd
Saturday Mercury Square Neptune, Mars Sesquiquadrate
Uranus - Abrupt change of circumstances bring hidden
facets of our life to the surface. Be aware that all
is not known at this time so distrust your responses
to your situation if you are angry or frightened.
Wait a few days, if you can, before taking irrevocable
actions.
24th
Sunday Neptune turns direct - Today we are reminded
why we are here. The inner planes of imagination and
spiritual insight are stirred up. Ponder on the significance
of our true motives.
25th
Monday Mercury Parallel Neptune - It is only with
great difficulty that we can stay focused on anything
practical. Our attention is naturally taken up with
things that take us away from the present moment.
Long term planning is an option but meditation is
probably the most effective use of the energies today.
26th
- Tuesday Venus Sextile Saturn, Venus Sesquiquadrate
Neptune - We struggle with the details of our personal
feelings. Much can be accomplished if we are insistent
on what we want while remaining flexible.
27th
Wednesday Mars Sextile Pluto, Full Moon eclipse
at 5 Taurus at 11:08pm EDT - An urge to get things
done encourages us to promote new strategies. We have
feelings about circumstances in our lives and about
people that we cant seem to convey in words. Be persistent
and you will get clarity now.
28th
Thursday Venus Contra-parallel Jupiter, Sun Semi-square
Pluto, Venus enters Libra, Mercury Semi-sextile Pluto
- Tell people how you feel and it helps the flow of
the day, and your life in general. Emotions dominate
the day. Relax and let your mind take a vacation and
your natural and positive feelings will emerge.
29th
Friday Mercury Semi-sextile Mars - Something from
the past pulls on us now. Is it just thoughts and
feelings or is someone coming to see us just now?
All our social routines are questioned and we may
meaningfully examine our ways of moving forward with
our new insights.
30th
Saturday Mercury Semi-square Jupiter, Sun Semi-sextile
Jupiter - Our thoughts and feelings are very positive
today. However, not much is accomplished right now
unless we include other peoples feeling and wishes
in our plans, AND, we need to be incredibly focused
. This is not easy as an overwhelming idealism tends
to redirect our attention toward the far away and
unobtainable.
31st
- Sunday Venus Quincunx Uranus, Venus headed toward
south declination, Mercury Contra-parallel Saturn
- Our emotions are greatly expanded now as we head
toward new horizons. Our personal and romantic lives
are stimulated now.
