to be able to understand my calendar. This makes me realize that I
probably need to explain it further:
This is NOT the usual Sun Sign based calendar.
This is an EVENT calendar which works for EVERYBODY, regardless of
your Sun Sign. Depending on what you wish to create in your life
(contract signing, selling/buying a house/asking for a raise/going on
a trip/getting married....)
For example:
massage or just relax: choose the Moon in Taurus or look at the last
section to see which day would be most conducive to those activities.
If you wish to organize your desk or schedule an important meeting,
use the Moon in Capricorn and further refine your search by both
looking at the details of each day in the last section and avoiding
the Void of Course Moon times.

SEPTEMBER 2009
This is a very special month. Since May -when everything came to a
complete standstill-, through the Summer Solstice in June, through the
3 portal/eclipses in July and August, we went through gigantic shifts,
so huge that we may not even recognize our lives anymore. People,
locations, jobs, our financial situation may all have radically
changed. The separation between those who are truly doing their inner
homework and are thriving to develop their light and those who are not
of that same consciousness has become very obvious in the past few
months. And as those of us who are choosing consciousness and true
spiritual growth are expanding, becoming lighter and lighter, our
lives are also becoming more and more synchronistic with miracles
occurring left and right. Still difficult times ahead but with the
assurance that the light is at the end of the tunnel.
CRASH IS LIKELY TO OCCUR. Being forewarned should mean being
forearmed. If enough of us are conscious, we may be able to lessen for
ourselves the consequences.
Mercury is retrograde between Sunday 9/6 and Tuesday 9/29 between
6º13' Libra and 21º38' Virgo. We are being asked to reorganize our
lives, putting order in our papers, reexamining our health, nutrition,
getting on a good exercise program. Pets may demand our attention as
do our work and relationships with co-workers as well as people who
serve us in one way or another. Our romantic relationships are also
under the radar. How do we achieve harmony, how do we complete each
other, enrich one another? What does "marriage" mean to us personally?
How do we truly journey with another without relinquishing our own
sense of identity? What do we do in our daily lives to enhance peace?
As we are able to answer all those questions for ourselves, our life
falls into place in a whole new dimension.
17º27' Aquarius. The Sabian symbols for these three degrees are: "a
large white dove bearing a message", "a forest fire is being subdued
by the use of water, chemicals and sheer muscular energy", and "a
man's secret motives are being publicly unmasked". Whoever is hiding
behind lies, is in anger, has fear in his/her heart or resorts to
manipulation will fall. This is the time where those "who are"
separate from those "who are not". False prophets cannot continue to
pretend being what they're not and only those who truly walk their
talk with integrity will thrive and blossom into the light. This is a
time where we need to make very clear choices based on living love.
26º30' Virgo. These 2 degrees are symbolized by "a boy with a censer
serves the priest near the altar" and "a group of aristocratic ladies
meet ceremonially at a court's function". As we integrate more and
more our uniqueness and express our individuality in freedom, we are
also surrendering to higher rules. Our personal journey towards
enlightenment is bringing us closer to the truth of our divine nature.
As we allow the divine within and without to guide our freewill, our
lives become easier and lighter.
Aquarius. This degree is represented by "a butterfly with the right
wing more perfectly formed". Our divinity is also in our imperfection.
What matters most is not necessarily the destination, but the journey
towards enlightenment.
September 11 at 0º39' Capricorn. This degree is symbolized by "an
Indian chief claims power from the assembled tribe". Now is the time
to truly stand in our power. There is no ego arrogance if we do this
with love, clarity, courage and inner strength.

* * * * * * * * *
Our temper could be easily triggered today. Best to think before we
react as any spontaneous response would come from our ego creating
sudden separations and much chaos. Conflicts and anger are transmuted
only by love and compassion.
AM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph. Be particularly careful today.
Miscommunications, lost keys, car or computer problems, erased
messages, misplaced papers... might be more the norm than the
exception. Avoid installing new software or starting a new venture.
During the next three weeks, our minds work a little backwards. Old
friends may resurface. We may be drawn to revisiting places we have
already been to and having there a completely new experience.
(9:55 AM)
Our understanding and use of our power is clearer. We are not afraid
of asserting our truth. Communication, encounters with authority and/
or sexual issues can now be resolved in the light of the deeper
understanding of what we really stand for. Today more specifically, we
need to be cautious not to squander our financial resources. Any lack
of discipline, self-indulgence, laziness, misplaced sensuality or
extravagance could have long-term consequences that prove difficult.
Neptune (2:37 PM)
Today could be particularly brutal for our money!!! Be VERY careful.
Beware of any investment in the stock market as many financial
structures could collapse suddenly. Lots of illusions will be exposed
today. Lies and betrayals will become obvious. The facades crumble
revealing a reality very different from what it appeared to be.
(4:50 AM), Sun Conjunct Saturn (11:22 AM), Mercury enters Virgo (8:26
PM till October 9)
During the next month, our thinking is more practical, detailed and
organized. We seek order. We need clarity of purpose and to focus on
our goals. Today more specifically, unexpected, unstable and
depressing circumstances. Not good to enter any form of partnership.
Business endeavors do not develop as planned. We could experience
difficulties in our relationships. We need to be very aware of our
motives and be cautious of the possibility of manipulations.
AM till October 14), Venus Trine Pluto (7:56 PM)
The next 3 weeks are marked emotionally by practical considerations.
We need our relationships to stand the test of reality. We may need
to reassess what they mean to us and how they either hinder or enhance
our daily lives. Today more specifically, our communications are open
and sunny. We express clearly what we have to say thus creating new
opportunities in our lives. A great night for a passionate date either
with someone new or an existing partner. We are able to share a rare
depth of emotion and profoundly understand the true nature of our
inner soul connection with another as well as effortlessly transform
old behavioral patterns that have kept us from experiencing a greater
sense of intimacy.
The next month's focus is on harmony, peace and beauty. We could be
more interested in art, colors, music and decoration. Our
relationships take the forefront as we want them to be enriching and
positive. Our exchanges with others should be more diplomatic. We seek
more equilibrium between the various aspects of our personal lives.
(8:37 AM)
Financial investments are not encouraged today. Relationships could
suffer from power games leading to impulsive breaks. The obstacles
encountered today test our courage and maturity.
Beware of hidden dangers both in our careers and domestic
circumstances.
Communication becomes more direct today. We face the future reassured
and are clearer on our real motivations.
We mean what we say and say what we mean. A great day to assert our
truth and be very forward in expressing ourselves. Good for making
those phone calls and connecting with people who can support our
ideas. Many new doors are likely to open today.
