Art ~ Susana Khabbaz - MORE STARS FOR THE DARKEST NIGHTS
We are now in the waning cresecent Moon phase and on day 25 of this lunar cycle.
Saturn is now Retrograde at 19˚ 25’ Pisces and Neptune is stationing Retrograde from our perspective tomorrow!
My podcast for the double station of Saturn and Neptune is at
A reminder that Saturn will not move from the station point until Wednesday and Neptune will not move from that station point until Wednesday July 10th. We are also entering the dark New Moon phase.
So, this energy is all very potent and pressured because the few days around a station are often tough.
I would also like to mention that Saturn stationed right at the bottom of Biden’s chart (his IC) and conjunct his natal Ceres (pus aspecting his Mercury) while Neptune also stations Rx in aspect to his 12th house Sun/Venus (and out of sign to his ascendant) and 8th house Jupiter. The Saturn station especially would have affected his energy. I also agree with Bob Woodward that something is ‘off’. Yes Biden is aging but we have never seen him that way before. Woodward suggested something occurred shortly before the debate that threw him off. The next day he was fine again.
Saturn also, more importantly, stationed square Trump’s Lunar Nodes and is heading back towards his 4th house South Node. I still think that is the bigger turning point as I mentioned in the video with Erika Robinson. We are meeting again tomorrow to look at more.
We are also supposed to have the Supreme court ruling on Presidential Immunity today and the far right gained power in the French elections. Plus Hurricane Beryl and other climate change signals in many places. We are in deeply unsettling and exhausting times. I urge you not to knee jerk in this chaos and to stay the course and focus inwards and on what you CAN do in the moment and on what you desire to create.
Ann Lamott made a great post and I quote:-
“The people in my galaxy are terrified, heartbroken, and exhausted, scrambling in their minds to figure this thing out. I want to remind you: “Figure it out” is not a good slogan. No one has a clue what is going to happen, or what would be best. I was blessed to be close friends with Molly Ivins, and I happen to know *exactly* what she would have said this weekend when asked what she thought was going to happen. She would have said, “Sweetpea? Let’s have this conversation in a week or two.” “
I urge you to read the whole post and focus on self-care. Don’t join the hoards calling for the knee jerk response to Biden’s bad debate. The MAGA brigade are rubbing their hands in glee at that. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/kUg6VZU7zXQ1DwWm/
Focus on something lovely and beautiful in the world. Simone Biles amazing qualifying performance for the Olympics. Taylor Swift’s face when she saw Travis’ face as he surprised her at her Dublin show. The Sun coming up over the mountains as you walk (for me). The birdsong. Your children, pets, loved ones. The good things Biden has done, rather than the things you disagree with (he has been the most progressive President in decades. One of my most cynical (previously at least) politico friends even said that Biden has started a pretty good effort against neoliberalism. THAT surprised me. It seems we are conditioned to tear down rather than lift up and support and I am done with that. Perhaps seeing the negative all the time is partly what got us here.
Focus on pragmatic positivism. Not pretending all is okay but on saying it WILL be okay because I know in my heart it will be. We are nearing the end of a long tunnel of change. My friend Andrew Brewer, a psychic and very successful one, has also been predicting that we will come through this just fine for a long time.
The key is through the heart, the ‘nous’, which means seeing with the eye of the heart, and to slow down and tune into your heart. Trust and have faith and then support and lift up the good in the world.
I feel, more and more, the shift in me. I am getting clearer on my purpose and work in the world and that is to bring Astrology and all the other tools into the realm of love and creating a more beautiful world because it can if we choose to.
Venus is the heart of things, and the Venus Star Point™ is YOUR core center of heart manifestation. This is, even more, going to be the bigger focus of my work, as much as I love the asteroids and Centaurs. Don’t worry, I won’t abandon them. They are a part of what’s coming, or what is being brought in.
On that note I am also making a shift on these stations. Not a sudden one (because that’s not always a good idea on a station lol) but one that has been brewing and that I have been working on with mentors. Watch this space for details because a lot of it will be focused on Substack, which I love. I heard rumors that some are tearing this place down now (I won't say why) but the things they were tearing it down for I have not witnessed. So I choose to see this too with the ‘nous’.
Enough preaching over. But to quote that psychic friend Andrew, if you have gone into panic/chaos mode over a 90 minute debate, please ‘chill the fuck out’. He is doing the job and a good one and no, that doesn’t mean I agree with everything, but I also know I don’t know a lot of what he knows about the machinations in the world. Focus on what you DESIRE to bring into the world rather than the constant negativity and nastiness.
My preaching comes from a place of love because I feel that this energy today is going to bring up a ton of chaos and fear as Neptune grinds to a standstill from our perspective. Neptune represents the urge for transcendence, higher compassion, kindness, love, and oneness. As the modern guide for Pisces, the sign of the amniotic fluid of creation and also the chaos from which we are born, Neptune is so strong in this sign, and the station is at the last 5 MINUTES of the last degree of the sign which is the last sign of the zodiac. An intense degree in any sign, but at the last degree of the zodiac? Holy heck. Both the breaking down before rebirth and the womb of creation.
I share with you the wonderful Sikh Prayer for America (apply it to the whole world too - please don’t think this excludes you if you are not in the USA) - I urge you to listen to her words. https://valariekaur.com/2016/11/a-sikh-prayer-for-america-on-november-9th-2016/
This is a ‘dark’ and confusing week.
You may feel a sense of doom and immense fears. This is the shadow of Neptune in Pisces as we break down to be reborn. These fears may be exacerbated by Mercury in Cancer’s trine to Neptune in Pisces. Mercury in Cancer is very sensitive to what it hears and reads and Mercury is also at that last, liminal, and sensitive degree.
The waning crescent grounded and rooted Taurus Moon helps us to ground ourselves in our senses and in the world we can taste, touch, smell, hear, and see.
This is where I invite you to turn your attention.
Root yourself in your values, your senses, in your heart, and what you desire to create.
A trine to Ceres in Capricorn says focus on meeting your core needs. A conjunction with Mars gives you a push to continue working on what you are creating.
A square to grace spinner and cosmic doula, Centaur Chariklo in Aquarius helps you to weave the new story of you and what you desire.
The Moon then aspects both Venus in Cancer and juno in Virgo as the two aspect each other. These aspects will help you to, to quote Anne Lamott again, start where your butt is. It’s okay to admit you are sad and bone tired and to do ‘less’ today. It’s okay to take a nap if you can, or do something else that fills your soul. It’s okay to do things that you love doing, something fun and pleasurable. It’s okay to turn off the news and watch something that makes you laugh or that feels joyful. I might just find a recording of the Sugababes reunion at Glastonbury to watch - and then Avril Lavigne! Cancer is a nostalgic sign so indulge in nostalgia.
The Moon then aspects both Saturn and Nessus and those aspects, even though supportive, may bring up more limitations and memories of trauma and abuse.
Do more things that you relish.
A Lunar opposition to Pallas Athena in Sagittarius helps you to find some inner wisdom and to see some solutions. Don’t act on them yet, but maybe some brainstorming or mind mapping would be good :)
The Moon’s last aspects for this 24 hours are a conjunction with the rebellious planet of awakening and shocks/surprises, Uranus, combined with an opposition to ‘talk to the hand’ asteroid Lilith. These aspects give more of a jolt that say, no way josé - I am not taking this. Wake up and smell the coffee.
Mercury then squares preventative health asteroid Hygeia at the last degree of Aries as that aspect to Neptune perfects on the early morning station. As much as the thoughts and sensitivities may be triggered by the Mercury/Neptune trine, the square to Hygeia reminds you that if we each heal and find our true selfness within we can be a part of the change we want to see in the world.
Mars in Taurus’ square to Centaur Chariklo in Aquarius tells you that yes, you (and we) CAN write and weave a new story if we are willing.
Early tomorrow, Mercury moves into Leo. But more on that tomorrow.
If you want to know, the Supreme Court gave a terrible decision on Trump, as Erika Robinson predicted on her blog.
. They ruled he has ‘some’ immunity for official acts but not for everything, thereby punting it back to the lower courts. Strong dissents from Jackson and Soto
Read that and let it go. Then do more things that light you up.
The best thing to do is to beat him in the election by a large majority. Such a large majority that it cannot be contested. Also, remember that this decision applies to anything Biden does now too.
I think I will send a donation to Biden and then do more self care.
I bought the coat btw.
The New Moon podcast is at
The card for the day is Three of Cups Reversed. Light Seer’s tarot
This can mean that those old fears and miscommunications will arise. In an inner space, the three are the mind, body, spirit being out of balance and a reminder to balance that central nervous system.
The card says you are feeling disconnected and letting these fears and thoughts take over. This is the Cancer card and the Mercury decan. Acknowledge those fearful thoughts and move them through. Then do a gratitude list and practices that will reconnect you to the heart.
Need I say more 🙂
Love to you.
Louise
INVITATION TO YOU:-
Join me in Utah in October for my first in person Peer Group. A chance to pursue OPA certification if you have been offering paid Astrology readings for at least 6 months.
I love both online and in person Peer Groups but the intimacy and connection of an in person peer group is astounding.
I would like to invite you to the Retreat on October 16-21. There are fabulous speakers (and a day pass for just that day is also available) but what’s unique about OPA Retreats is the opportunity to do an in-person Peer Group, a track to learn a new technique or an in-person Consulting Skills class. At the core of all those options is becoming an ethical Astrologer or learning more Astrology. Plus we would get to meet!
The Retreat is called “Celebrating the Aquarian Shift”
And the theme is “Connect and Learn”
Payment plans available! Check it out and register at this link.
REGISTER for the OPA retreat now!
