OCTOBER
2006 by Bob Mulligan
October
is the month where we make peace with our situation
and then go forward into a period of clarification
and bonding. It is the time where we figure out how
we get along with others; how much of ourselves will
be involved with our community. There is a struggle,
then clarification over personal boundaries. This
year the shift is very abrupt and deep. We will be
living out extremes in emotions and in decisions.
The
Full Moon is on Friday, October 6th at 11:13PM EDT.
This is a time of giving and reaching a profound depth
of feelings for others. If you are able to translate
this emotion into universal goodwill for the planet,
you become energetically part of the solution. Otherwise,
you will fall into the legions of energetic takers
who are wrecking the social order through overindulgence.
The
New Moon is Sunday morning October 22nd at 1:15AM
EDT; we head into the lunar month with so much imbalance
that it is quite difficult to do anything in moderation.
Be extreme about the right things and you will feel
validated and exhilarated.
On
the 23rd of October we have the Sun switching from
Libra to Scorpio. This happens every year signaling
a time of moving from fellowship and romance to taking
care of personal business. This year however, the
demarcation is extremely pronounced because we have
so many planets in Scorpio (six counting the Moon)
from the 23rd on through the rest of the month. There
will be lots of grappling for power by governments
and corporations during this time. Watch this period
in your own life and avoid reacting to circumstances
so quickly that you lack balance.
October
1st to the 8th, There is an assertive quality for
sure right now but generally people are accommodating
and this can be a very peaceful week. There is a strong
spiritual lift to every project provided we keep the
focus on what is really needed in the long run in
order to be happy.
October
9th to the 15th, Keep your feet on the ground and
plan for the long haul. Be patient and enjoy the general
goodwill that the world around you is offering. There
is some tension between your need to relate and your
security urge. The necessary compromises are easy
if you are capable of following through on your commitments.
October
16th to the 22nd, The end is very near for much of
what has passed as normal before. We take sudden corrective
steps to live in a new world. This is a great time
to make adjustments and to complete paperwork. Talk
straight to people around you; express your true feelings
in regards to your relationships.
October
23rd to the 31st, A somber tone sets in as we all
focus more on our personal moods and concerns. The
clear, lighthearted detachment from earlier evaporates
as we give our inner thoughts and feelings true ventilation.
Now is a great time for introspection and renewed
self appraisal.
1st,
Sunday, Venus Sesquiquadrate Neptune. Ideas spark.
There can be quick resolution of some long standing
difficulties by finding a new, unique strategy.
2nd,
Monday. We need love and companionship. Seek comfort
in the realm of ideas.
3rd,
Tuesday, Venus Semi square Jupiter. Too much of a
good thing is just enough when you are with the right
partner. Indulging our feelings to go overboard can
leave us feeling deflated afterwards.

We have a mission today. It is a great time to get
real enthusiasm for the things that we want most.

time to let your highest ideals manifest and to let
your mind be dominated with thoughts of kindness for

is powerful and the urge to create beauty and harmony
needs some form of expression.

if we spend time helping others with their various
tasks. Sometimes putting personal energy into other
peoples projects is the path to happiness.

All dressed up and no place to go? Be willing to follow
a new path now. More adventure comes into your life
if you are willing to sit loose in the saddle.

first and everything else will fall into place. This
is a very fortunate day but it requires calm and focus
in order to see the opportunities.

this day an edginess that is difficult to channel.
Stay on task; freedom and responsibility go hand in
hand.
18th,

and goodwill allow us to fashion long term plans and
commitments. We have the underpinnings of solid, reliable
partnerships.
19th,
Thursday, Venus Parallel Uranus. Our desire for new
experiences seem prompted by surrounding circumstances.
Either have freedom and uniqueness expressed with
your close ones, or avoid much contact. Something
new demands expression now.
20th,
Friday. A desire to connect is very powerful and we
have a wish for romance. There is a certain amount
of winding things up in order to start into a new
phase of life.
21st,
Saturday, Venus Sesquiquadrate Uranus. Even though
the excitement in the air encourages us to be adventuresome,
we are happiest if we contain our efforts channeled
in a methodical manner. We can experience real beauty
by focusing on the ordinary.

Sunday, New Moon at 1:15AM EDT, Mercury Conjunct Jupiter.
The promise of better circumstances can be fulfilled
immediately if you have faith and courage. Do not

new people or toward old acquaintances in a new way.
Avoid ultimatums and arguments; this can be a romantic

all day eventually settle down. Take time to enjoy
what is going on around you.

Friday, Sun Conjunct Venus, Venus Parallel Mars. A
feeling of excitement, romance, and adventure colors
this day. Even though others may seem very intense,
this is a very benign time.

Direct. Before you react to anything ask yourself
if it matters. This is a wonderful time to re-evaluate.
Everything is on the table; have the courage to change.

and self acceptance in the ongoing stream of events
stimulates personal evolution.
