This forecast is prepared and written in luminous tiles across your retinas. May it shine forth upon all who meet your gaze. Words grow here slick and filthy and unhindered by enterprise.
As the ninth month begins the orgasmic climb, Sun in Virgo is releasing us from the enchantment of Summer and directing us to finish the year with renewed Autumnal diligence. The good news is that the earth is round (or roundish, anyway). The bad news is that it's floating in space. The result is that we're going to have to think fast. The stars facilitate progress and after-school pie making.. With biggies Saturn, Uranus and Pluto in earth signs, and Jupiter and Neptune in water, the month is studded with harmonies that help ground Virgo’s work ethic in significant results, The good news is that our bodies are mostly water and so are relatively inexpensive to maintain. The bad news is that, due to global warming, water levels are rising. The result is that it's impossible to keep your head above water, unless you drain it. Directly and indirectly, the energy of Mars seeps into the month’s basement cavalcade of cauliflower, spiking the ball in the end zone of a stimulating stadium that keeps us hyphy.. The planet of action had been retrograde since late June, accentuated since mid-July by Mercury’s shadow and retrograde. That fucking ne'er-do-well did a donut on my lawn! If you’ve felt like you’ve been bicycling under a fish net for the last couple of months, now you know why. Now, with Mars newly direct and the messenger planet leaving post-retrograde shadow on September 2, the highway seems to open. Chatty bitch Mercury and bold Mars are key planets for progress, and they’re not the only ones that come back out of the closet. Worker Saturn and powerful Pluto will also be going direct. With both planets in Capricorn, we’ll be looking at this year’s lessons around discipline and mastery, and the aforementioned harmonies with help us ground our knowledge. Green lights beckon us to move in business, healing, finances, exposing secrets, work and all things practical. The Equinox power portal on Saturday, September 22 opens and Truth, Justice, and Harmony emerge from the distorted wasteland of Lies, and the lying Liars who’s power is fleeting and devastingly bombastic in it’s disconnect with that which is REAL! Because it governs Time, Saturn governs the type of learning that can only come through Time: experience. The teaching here is that investing effort is the only way to gain a lasting understanding of a chosen activity, and thus about our own capabilities. Saturn teaches that no amount of luck or book-learning can supply the knowledge that good ol’ hard-knocks experience can supply. We can intellectualize all we want about a new skill, but unless we’ve put effort into it and acted it out (and not just once: Saturn governs repeated lessons over time), we will not integrate it. We may understand a thing conceptually, and even appreciate its significance spiritually; but until we come to know it experientially, we cannot achieve mastery over it. People with Saturn in Gemini or in the third house, for example, often have to work harder to develop language proficiency, and may take longer acquiring it than is normative for their educational phase. But these are the very folks who may end up with rock-solid communications skills. At a lecture by British astrologer Dennis Elwell, whose sculpted sentences are a marvel of linguistic craft, he told us that this signature in his chart was both the bane and the blessing of his public speaking. Though his delivery conveyed a seamless oratorical confidence, he divulged that the subjective reality was just the opposite: in order to dare to get up there and speak, he felt he had to write down every word in double-spaced text, down to the punctuation.

At 6:46 am (9:46 ET), Moon in free Aquarius squares Venus in strong Scorpio, making this morning high on creative inventiveness yet not so helpful in contacts with others (with the possible exception of a kinky romp between the sheets). The good news is that tons of radio waves are passing through us at all times. The bad news is that we can't hear them unless we buy a radio. The result is that we're left with a sense of violation and dismay, which is sometimes unintentionally transmitted to our fellow beings. This tension subsides by midday, when we can connect with friends, break our routine by trying something different, fight for a cause, or look into a career change. An evening conjunction from Sun in analytic Virgo to ruler Mercury is great for editing, making a budget, practical communication and using affirmations for healing. It blends nicely with Moon in Aquarius to favor intellectual activities, research, and analyzing options for home refinance. My funds are not limited to what I have on hand bitch. They flow from the infinite realm of Spirit, and I watch them grow and multiply now.
Friday, September 21
If you actively invoke blessed HANIEL, the Archangel of Venus into your heart today, you may find you have developed the ability to feel like Khrisna, multiplying himself into a dozen pastoral, naked farmhands with muddy feet and emerald pond scum on their thighs, or maybe you are a young Freya on the back of a panther, eating honey. The Day of Venus, who gets oversimplified like a lot of her sisters, is one of the most complex planets going: she works as an attractive force and as a creative one. Intelligence is the greatest aphrodisiac, but a dab of extract from a civet's anal gland and a nice pair of shoes will work just as well today.Moon rises in Aquarius this morning. Work on a creative or intellectual project, seek out a friend whose ideals resonate with yours, participate in activism, or work on something related to your future or that of a family member. Do it before 10:13 am (1:13 pm), when Moon goes VOC on a square to Jupiter. Now it’s time to take a break to visit a friend, go to a museum or enjoy a good read. At 8:39 pm (11:39 ET), Mercury enters Libra, bringing an element of charm to our communications and helping us hone our negotiation and listening skills. Her ingress triggers the first, critical degree of cardinal Libra, presaging tomorrow’s Equinox portal.
Saturday, September 22
This is a day of magick. The numerology of 22 increases our intuition and our ability to reach the masses in a helpful way. The good news is that the meek shall inherit the earth. The bad news is that there won't be much left of it after the brave have had their day. The result is that the meek should probably get together and attempt to colonize Space at their earliest possible convenience.
At 5:27 am (8:27 ET), Moon enters mystical Pisces. She sextiles genius Uranus and constructive Saturn, opening doors for progress on our ideals or original endeavors. We can act on our hunches, knock on key doors, and move on our dreams in whatever way you can. Afternoon is good to make a vision board, join with friends for an Equinox ritual, and work on forgiveness. The Equinox power portal opens at 6:54 pm, Sun enters Libra, shifting us into the season of change and triggering the critical first degree of this cardinal sign, which raises our chances for to impact others with our actions and thoughts. Tonight, the intentions of change we seed and the ideas or emotions we share have special power. Because it governs Time, Saturn governs the type of learning that can only come through Time: experience. The teaching here is that investing effort is the only way to gain a lasting understanding of a chosen activity, and thus about our own capabilities. Saturn teaches that no amount of luck or book-learning can supply the knowledge that good ol’ hard-knocks experience can supply. We can intellectualize all we want about a new skill, but unless we’ve put effort into it and acted it out (and not just once: Saturn governs repeated lessons over time), we will not integrate it. We may understand a thing conceptually, and even appreciate its significance spiritually; but until we come to know it experientially, we cannot achieve mastery over it.

Sunday, September 23
The Equinox power portal remains open as mental Mercury squares firm Saturn at 2 degrees Capricorn, once again activating the Aries point.The aspect isn’t comfortable or propitious for relaxed exchanges, but it can help us take a look at our progress so far this year. Use it to streamline communications, organize ideas, release obsolete contacts and get concrete about communications related to goals for change.
Moon in sensitive Pisces conjuncts ruler Neptune and later, sextiles deep Pluto: we can meditate, pray, transmute limiting beliefs, work on something creative or related to our dreams. As the Moon makes its way through mid-Pisces, we engage in a flurry of activity that leads to a serene understanding and the means to articulate it by the end of the day.Pisces represents, on the level of the first octave, the period between 28 weeks after Conception till Birth, when after the electrick nervous system of the fetus switches on (Aquarius), we become psychically tuned to the entity later to be known as Mother. On the level of the fourth octave (see Chapter 9 of the Meteversal Lightcraft Training Manual for more on the Four Octaves), Pisces represents the enlightened Self which must give itself totally to the whole, dissolving into the void, in order to achieve the final unity with the realm of pure spirit. On the World scale, Pisces occupies the period between 1910 and 1969. heralded by the founding of Psychoanalysis, when Mankind began exploring again the Unconscious strata of Life, and by Albert Einstein's (a Pisces) Theory of Relativity. This was the time of Jung, Joyce, Hesse, Huxley, Leary, Burroughs. We transcended the limits the illusion, Maya, the physical World of Assiah, extending inward with the electron microscope and outward with the high powered Telescope. The entire range of audible musical notes and the whole spectrum of visible colour, apprehended and understood. The dissolving power of mutable Water, Second coming of the Fish with the Double Wand of Power, Atom Bomb and LSD. With the Sun in Pisces we have a heightened sensitivity to Musick and the Dreamtime, and we feel the depths of pure compassion for the Metaverse and it's inhabitants. Let the subtlety of thought and expression, the depth of imagination, and the ability to think nonverbally inspire you to create beautiful art and music today.
With Mercury in trine to assertive Mars, tonight is great for promoting something or making a breakthrough in communication. When I baptize myself in the sweet seas ago go I usually get pizza and a complete set of designer success tape in the name of the divine power that made me the scrapping dude band that fills my high hats with Styrofoam peanuts now.
Monday, September 24
With Moon in imaginative Pisces and Sun in quincunx to Uranus the innovator, this morning is great for creative work. Unusual doors may open suddenly, so go ahead and knock on them. At 4:04 pm (7:04 ET), Moon enters Aries, becoming full at 7:52 pm (10:52 ET) and once again triggering the Aries-point. In conjunction to Chiron, Luna brings our wounds and healing processes into relief. She also squares taskmaster Saturn and sextiles ruler, dynamic Mars, so this lunation is about work, both inner and outer. It will in fact spark us to move, perhaps to a call from destiny. We are looking for a woman with-child who would permit 5 respectful ~27 year old men to watch her give live birth, while on magic mushrooms. Relationships may be challenged when we flex our muscles of independence. An awkward connection between the partnership-oriented Libra Sun and individualistic Uranus creates tension. It’s nearly impossible to see beyond our personal filters when the Moon blasts into self-willed Aries at 7:03 pm EDT. Nevertheless, the ardent Aries Full Moon occurs at 10:52 pm, reminding us to balance our own needs with those of our friends, family, and the community. Retrograde season is over, but so is the familiarity of the past. Mercury and Mars are now direct; Saturn and Pluto turn direct this month. The logjam (planetjam?) is over! We are thrust into the brave new future, whether we are ready or not. However, Venus slips into her shadow, preparing us for her backward dance next month. The focused energy of the Virgo New Moon on September 9 is dispersed by its opposition to fuzzy Neptune. The month morphs from a gentle beginning with a Grand Earth Trine to more complexity by the time the Aries Full Moon occurs on September 24. Preparation time is over; it’s time for action.
The Sabian symbol for 2-3 Aries says:
A MAN’S PROFILE SUGGESTS THE OUTLINES OF HIS COUNTRY. The individual self as the avatar of a greater collective reality; as participant in the larger scheme of society or life.
My first priority throughout this day is to act from my right to healing.
Tuesday, September 25
Moon in Aries gives a touch of boldness to creative Libra. Today’s numerology of 7 stresses intellectual activities. Push through resistance to action that requires talent, research or write, focus on a short-term goal, send a résumé, enter a contest, promote your product, work or services. Morning is best for connecting with others—wish our editor Susan a happy Solar Return! This afternoon, a square from Sun to demanding Saturn helps us organize and face the discipline required to follow our joy. It can also generate guilt trips or a sense of inadequacy. Schedule an appointment with a trusted coach or seek out an adoring confidante. I call on the spiritual raccoon warrior to force Billy and the other orphans to help push the little orphan digits through my roccoco nerve lattice and take a hold of the future now..

Moon goes VOC in Aries on a square to intense Pluto at 3:28 am (6:28 ET). Fortunately she then makes a minor aspect to happy Jupiter, though she remains VOC for the entire day . If you can get a cabin, spa, suite or campsite, reserve it and keep a low profile. Otherwise, enjoy watching sports or walk around the neighborhood, visit the local park, and go for tea. Cyclonic Banshee Satori is the new mantra we assign to you free of charge. You want one of the round thingies, too? A mandala? All we have left are the ones with Aztec Mermaids in Cowboy Hats Riding Turquoise Emus. Oh, you’ve already got one of those? Well, you’ll have to wait if you want the Hedge-Devas on Bumblebees. Next week, maybe. We are so deeply into the process—it’s always been with us throughout this lifetime—we can’t see the forest amongst the 26,000 trees. .Every human is born with a third-dimensional body and a fourth-dimensional Lightcraft. The physical body is the biological conductor. The Lightctraft is the time transport unit. The body and its Lightcraft are inseparable. The biological conductor sustains the sensory nervous system, the human instrument for processing the full range of experience. The experience of the body is synchronized within the Metaversal Lightcraft. The Lightcraft is the physical body's coded experience in time. The body in time with its Lightcraft is art. Lack of respect for life arises directly from not understanding the true electrical alchemic principles of time compression at the end of solar ages- alchemizes the heart - is because the charge densities which accompany the solar maxima (2000- 2012 - climax of the Mayan / Solar calendar) formerly called RAPTURE by Christians - permit only those biological structures ABLE to non-destructively (and ALCHEMICALLY) compress / implode - to survive. the structural basis for all Light-specific work in the Metaverse is regular, disciplined connection to the No-Form, meditation, contemplation, what ever you want to call it, as long as it's deep. Supremely solitary in that heath of scrub. The Light-Specific state initiates itself with SOLITUDE, the gratifying element of being alone (if only for 20 minutes a day)... without which, true development is impossible. The point is to connect to your inner source of stability, the state of potentia, the No-Form, at least once a day. No-Form is not a goal or state of "spiritual arrival" (as some religions would have us believe), it is a highly practical, multi-purpose tool for dissolving our identification with the ego. If you want to play with us, this is the only rule. The foundation of our Lightcraft is built in Chaos, so you must maintain a firm foundation, or Chaos your life will be. Some of us need this connection four times a day (sunrise, true noon, sunset, true midnight). Some of us actually manage to do it four times a day. It is a choice you must make. I would do it for you if I could. Once a day is all that's required to maintain the Continuity function. Future generations of yourself will be glad this came to pass. The Lightcraft Academy, Yoga Ceremonial Magick, this astrology forecast, they all provide ritual technology for Self initiation. But the key word here is......

Take physical exercise in Jupiter's Day, when he is reigning, and use Jovial things such as Lapis Lazuli, Brass, Cedarwood, blue and aery colours, wine, honey; and entertain thoughts and feelings which are particularly Jovial, that is, expansive, healthy, and with good humour... -
Marsilio Ficino, Renaissance Astrologer and Orphic Musician
The Day of Jupiter in the kabbalistic World of Yetzirah/Earth. Projecting Light Specific Blue and facing West, vibrate this azure deluxe into your Second Chakra along with the mantrum: EE-BE-DA. Jupiter is all about allowing ambiguity, contradiction, and movement. It isn't about integration. It helps the ego become more flexible. By Jove, life isn't about staying calm and balanced, but rather about keeping complexity and drama and everything else alive and in dynamic flow. In the wee hours, Moon enters abundant Taurus. With both Libra Sun and Taurus Moon ruled by Venus, today is great for singing, appreciating music, enjoying nature or art, nurturing connections for romance and business, or sharing a sensual meal. Moon’s trine to executive Saturn also favors business and financial affairs, reorganizing stock portfolios or retirement plans, requesting a loan, applying perseverant effort, or working on something we want to last. At 4:34 pm (7:34 ET), Sun trines Mars, unleashing a wave of confidence. Ride it and dare to act in a bold way that allows you to ground today’s potential for creativity, love and prosperity.
