Starcodes for the week of October 6–13, 2022
“You say you want a revolution – Well, you know- We all want to change the world”.
–John Lennon
Watch the energy swirl, organize, then pick up speed this week. Changes put on hold for a season could now begin to percolate as Mercury picks up forward momentum and Pluto turns direct after many months retrograde. The Sun now roils with sunspots, potential solar flares, which turn the volume up on all transits and coincide historically with an urge for political and cultural change of all types. On top of this, this weekend’s Full Moon in Aries heralds one of the year’s most excited, progressive, and reactive moments.
Like a strong wind, this astrological excitement can propel us forward if we organize our sails and get our ship headed in the right direction. We still need to keep an eye out for storms of all types, both wild weather and clashes of wills. Fights between efforts to control, the old patriarchy, and some exciting new more egalitarian energy will weave through the headlines.
We could feel this tension in our own psyches, some old emotional baggage or difficult pattern nags us to resist our evolution as the Sun and Venus opposed Chiron. Problems are uncovered; whether it is a fresh understanding of the depth of a problem or a new revelation about the real motivation behind someone’s actions, we see what needs work now. Let’s keep our moral compass close at hand and use clear personal goals to guide our ship.
Through Friday we could feel tired at the end of a long week, extra sensitive under a perceptive Pisces Moon. An opportunity for fresh enthusiasm and rebellion pours in with a waxing full Moon in feisty, proactive Aries over the weekend.
Revolution comes in many forms, it could be a personal revolution, a simple decision, or heated, out-in -the-streets transformation. The enthusiasm calms down, stabilizes, but has no less determination late Monday through midweek as the Moon enters steady Taurus. Mercury enters diplomatic fair-minded Libra and the sun, Mars, and Saturn form a grand trine in communicative air signs making this a good week to negotiate, sign contracts, or outline a new book.
Some of our old motivation could dissolve, but a new vision or dream bring fresh resolve moving forward as Mars opposes Neptune midweek. We can let go of outdated anger or find that we bond together with surprising colleagues to solve a problem. Watch for water damage or fresh revelation of old water damage. Circumstance could leave us feeling uncertain but offer surprising opportunities revealed after we release a burden.
Friday, October 7: The week ends sensitize but potentially hopeful. We may wonder if we have what it takes or feel all too aware of other’s opinions as the sensitive Pisces Moon squares Mars and the sun opposes Chiron. Tonight, dream together, but make no promises and watch the alcohol intake as that permeable Pisces Moon conjuncts inspiring but escapist Neptune.
Sun opposes Chiron 4:08 AM, Moon sextile Uranus 1:34 PM, Moon square Mars 8:40 PM, Moon conjunct Neptune 10:39 PM.
Saturday, October 8: The waxing Moon in Aries imparts excitement, contrariness, enthusiasm, and impatient, we become unwilling to put up with a bad situation as the Moon enters Aries and conjunct expansive Jupiter. Pluto pivots to turn direct and stirs the pot around who has power-electrical, political, or personal power- who’s misusing it and who is using it for the benefit of all. Watch the headlines over the next few days for twists of fate. Hidden evidence floats to the surface. Speak personal truths yet avoid telling other people what to do. Be open to fresh possibilities.
Moon sextile Pluto 3:14 AM, Moon opposed Mercury 5:10 AM, Moon enters Aries 9:56 AM, Moon conjunct Jupiter 1:36 PM, Pluto stations to turn direct 3:55 PM.
Sunday, October 9: On this full Moon we may notice tension between are the needs of our loving relationships, and a secret desire to do things our own way. Find a way to timeshare between them. Notice a flash of temper or rebellion which can spike to remind us of our passions and priorities. Act out in healthy ways. Engage moments of spontaneity and get energy from following inner callings but do so in a sane way.
Moon opposed Venus 8:20 AM, Moon opposed Sun 2:54 PM, Moon sextile Saturn 6:48 PM.
Monday, October 10: Morning vibrates with potential energy, volatility, and distractions. Our old wounds could be triggered, we could react against a memory instead of what’s happening in the room this morning as Venus opposes Chiron, so let’s check what’s really bothering us before we react. Afternoon calms down and stabilizes as Mercury enters fair-minded Libra while the Moon enters stubborn and enduring Taurus. Feel the cooling relief.
Moon sextile Mars 2:14 AM, Venus opposes Chiron 7:15 AM, Moon square Pluto 8:01 AM, Moon enter Taurus 3:03 PM, Mercury enters Libra 5:50 PM.
Tuesday, October 11: Consider a change, just look before leaping. While we’re thinking clearly about the road ahead as the Sun trines serious Saturn, challenging aspects from unexpected Uranus can lower our impulse control, and certain background conditions may be challenging as Mars squares Neptune. Make adventurously sane decisions and build with solidity.
Sun quincunx Uranus 3:13 AM, Sun trine Saturn 7:06 PM, Mars square Neptune 11:46 PM.
Wednesday, October 12: Look for an overnight change which liberates, either through circumstances or mindset as the Moon conjuncts Uranus and mental Mercury opposes liberating Jupiter. Keep it real- don’t get lost magical thinking but do think outside of the box. Speak freely but thoughtfully; consider the impact of words. Conversation picks up late tonight, it may be hard to tuck the kids and our own brains into sleep as the Moon enters Gemini.
Moon conjunct Uranus 12:19 AM, Mercury opposes Jupiter 2:23 AM, Moon square Saturn 1:36 AM, Moon sex tile Neptune 10:25 AM, Moon trine Pluto 3:41 PM, Moon enters Gemini 11:07 PM.
Thursday, October 13: Don’t throw out what, or who, is tried-and-true, but to see what’s fresh on the horizon. Enjoy the adventure, the mood can be mischievous and flirtatious as the talkative Gemini Moon trines Mercury and Venus quincunx Uranus. People are ready to try something new, so take a different tack and share that fresh perspective.
Moon sextile Jupiter 2:07 AM, Moon trine Mercury 5:29 AM, Venus quincunx Uranus 10:57 AM.
