Daily Astral Terrain Forecasts for Airweek: January 10 to January 16, 2012!



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.


Tuesday January 10
The Day of Mars in active Airweek finds the red planet in Virgo. On the surface Mars and Virgo seem very different. Mars is direct , impulsive, fiery and impatient, while Virgo is careful, practical and detail-oriented. However, these two share a certain sharpness that can be combined to enhance productivity and higher levels of efficiency. Neither Mars nor Virgo wants to waste time. Both understand the value of getting a job done with dispatch. This period, then, can help us find out where to cut the fat in our work habits, so that tasks are handled quickly, making time for the development of new skills. Taken to its extreme, however, this focus on results can manifest as ruthless detachment and a lack of concern for the human side of the equation. The critical (Virgo) attack (Mars) is a negative potential for this period. It's easy to find fault and express oneself aggressively. If a situation is getting too tense, it may be that someone is frustrated by a lack of efficiency or are feeling a loss of power. Patiently attacking problems in a systematic way can help restore harmony. The Moon continues through Leo with no contacts today. We’ll be able to follow through on our plans, with no extra dilemmas to distract us.

Wednesday January 11
The Day of Mercury in active Airweek finds the swift footed one climing the Mountain we call Capricorn. The Mercury in Capricorn perspective is acutely aware of hierarchies. This means that conversation may become more about who's on top than a real sharing of information. Sensitivity to how communication and control are linked is strong during this period. Casual remarks are not associated with this placement. Information, rather, must have a purpose. Building is a real positive here, along with a more mature view of reality. However, there can also be a pessimism born of Capricorn's potentially narrow focus. Abstraction can be lost in Cap's need for clear, sharp and practical information. It's important, then, to not lose sight of the value of idle thinking and speculation during this otherwise goal-oriented time.The Moon catches up with Venus and Saturn to give us a new perspective on freedom and responsibility in our relationships. Make decisions based on the big picture/long-range outlook, not the local here-and-now.

Thursday January 12

The Day of Jupiter in active Airweek finds the ig one in the Taurus. When the planet of more is in the sign of money, greed is a distinct possibility. It's appropriate to aim higher financially, but too much desire for material success can damage judgment and cloud ethics. A core issue, then, is to be clear about your values. When goals are grounded in common sense and simple decency, the chances are greater that they will be achieved. Jupiter's reputation for generosity and optimism can mask its potentially judgmental side. Prejudice, painting everyone or everything with an overly broad brush, is a negative characteristic of this planet. Conservative Taurus and Jupiter can work to oversimplify reality and exclude uncomfortable ideas or unusual people. When something feels right it may not be right. Complacency about dealing with complex issues could prove limiting.Expanded awareness of our bodies and the earth  could be one of the benefits of this period. Major initiatives for the environment and breakthroughs in health education are possible. This, too, may be a period of time in which a vision (Jupiter) of the new economy (Taurus) can begin to take shape. The Moon enters its void-of-course period at 0:24 am PT, reactivating us when it goes into Virgo at 1:44 am. This re-cements the Earth Grand Trine, with a cascade of trines occurring throughout the day, including the Sun’s trine to Mars. This heralds the Mars retrograde, which is 11 days away. Pay attention today, because we will get a picture of what is coming to us under Mars’s period of backward travel, January 23–April 13.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.


Friday January 13
The Day of Venus in active Airweek finds the Love Goddess moving from Aquarius to Pisces. the the planet of pleasure and relationships, loves the wide open spaces of Aquarius. Here the boundaries between friendship and romance are broken and intimacy takes on a lighter form. Aquarius, in spite of its watery name, is an air sign related to objectivity and the mind. The relative detachment of the intellect gives Venus room to move so that love is less sticky and partnership less confining.We now have a greater opportunity to free ourselves from rigid relationship patterns. Aquarius is about exploring idealistic possibilities, rather than sticking to the old rules. Venus' presence here can help us drop outmoded structures and appreciate others in a new light. Lovers will benefit from fresh surroundings and experimental approaches to intimacy. Weirdos and eccentrics may become more lovable. The harmonies continue as Venus in Aquarius reaches out to Saturn in Libra and Neptune in Aquarius. Mercury conjoins Pluto to keep it real; With the Moon in Virgo catching up to Mars, we get the whole picture of what’s coming in the next three months. The Moon’s trine to the Sun at 5:58 pm takes us back to events of the Full Moon and commences the Moon’s void period, which lasts until tomorrow morning. In the midst of this trip into the netherworld, Venus enters its sign of exaltation, Pisces, at 9:47 pm PT.

Saturday January 14

At 5:28 am, Moon enters Libra, startling us to an inner awakening with an opposition to Uranus. This leads to another step in the “2012” transformative process, focusing on perhaps-harsh truths with squares to Pluto and Mercury. Venus sextiles Jupiter to lift our spirits with the support of friends and loved ones, especially appreciated now.he Moon in balanced Libra today feels like being social. Libra represents the period from 23 to 42 years old, when partnerships are made and balance is sought between others and oneself. On the World scale Libra is between 400 and 1100 AD, when division of the church and state took over, and the Dark Ages swept over Europe and Asia. The opposition is symbolic of the fact that in order to emerge from the unconscious, internal conflicts must be brought out into the light of day. Marriage was the primary process through which opposing countries where integrated into a whole. With the Moon in Libra we are aware of our communal relations, law, justice and balance.


Sunday January 15
Sunday’s for January are big Metaversal days..Johannes Ayres teaches his Western Tantra class at the beautiful Lake Merritt Lodge in Oakland Sunday mornings at 8:00 a.m. in the Ballroom (Call 510 259 8884 to reserve a space). This allows practitioners to attend the Ecxstatic Dance Workshop (also every Sunday morning) down the street at historic Sweet’s Ballroom. Between dark and light the angles of times are best manifest at their balance, so invoke Apollo, Ra, or the baby-faced Sun god from the Teletubbies into your heart Chakra today. Sunday is always a good day integrate all the planets in our personal Lightcraft. In the World of Yetzirah, Air, the Lightcraft is analogous to the active aspect of the psychological body, or for simplicities sake, let's call it Psyche. In the physical body (in Assiah) there are infinite subdivisions down to the frontier of the physical world, where the particles of matter and impulses of energy are interchangeable. In the same way, the Psyche interpenetrates the body so that the upper part of the physical world percolates and influences the lower part of the psyche, and vice versa. In the macrodimensions of the Metaverse, a crisis can generate a direct contact with the Sun in Yetzirah (Psyche) but after the crisis, the connection fades, and the watcher in oneself fades back into the subconscious. The Lightpilot seeks to consciously make permanent connection with the Sun in Yetzirah. This is done by constant observation of actions, emotions and intellect, to perceive impartially the way those functions operate, and to correct and perfect their performance so as to become a true seething. To be the big picture, complete in all its parts. The Moon in Libra encounters the empty sky in mid-degrees, making no contacts today. Use this day as you will.The 7th house (Libra) has been called the house of marriage. The key to the New Aeon of MA'AT is figuring out the new symbol for Libra, as the institution of marriage was originally designed as a tool by the Church to secure it's future domination. Those that cannot find this new symbol and perform these symbolic rites on themselves and their tribe, and the whole fabric of material being, will inherit only the blues, decay, and husks. Think more in terms of partnership and remember, your heart must be light as a feather.
