Astrology Extra - Major Planetary Effects

Astrology - Expect the unexpected with the huge outer planet representing sudden, quixotic changes - Uranus. Another term associated with planet Uranus is "eccentric" Noted in this week's moon sign astrology forecast, Mercury is transiting Sagittarius and going into retrograde motion.

Planet Uranus' transit astrology, which has been connected with Pisces astrology for some time, now, will head into retrograde. It forms an aspect with Mercury that's not very favorable.

Uranus is a planet known for its profuse electrical storm activity.

Prediction on these connections isn't possible, not at least until some futuristic time when Star Trekian technology sees the paths of electrical movement.

Forming a difficult aspect with Mercury, a nearby planet known for its own erratic path of travel, the result is anyone's guess.

Mercury, often referred to as the messenger planet, is at home with Sagittarius, the archer, in the sense of the hunter imagery. Wherein the bow and arrow travel through the air to a destination, it is out of touch in another sense.

Astrology defines a conjunction of this type with the term "detriment" meaning that it resides in an opposite placement to its planetary ruler. To simplify, it receives a weak signal because it is further away in the scheme of things.

Add the fact that Sagittarius is also conjunct to the sun up until the 22^nd of this month; the atmosphere is loaded with the possibility of surprise.

What direction would that arrow from the archer's bow take midst an electrical storm?

Generally, the mood tends toward the frenetic. Be prepared to stay calm and resist impulsive words, especially in the area of communications. Taking back angry words isn't possible. Channeling energy into something productive gives the opportunity to vent anger and frustration.

As the Mercurial energy quickly moves on this week, one activity that is favored comes under the heading of research, and investigating mysteries.

Later in the week, physical action remedies quirky energy spurts, or undue anxiety. Take a long walk, bike ride, or go hiking in the woods and transmute the energy away from the negative.
