Jupiter conjunct1
Amycus@ in Capricorn
from August 3 to October 15, 2020.

The aesthetic of Mat Johnson’s first novel, Drop, shocks. Johnson, a six-foot nine-inch mulatto from Germantown in Northwest Philadelphia, writes about attending community college in Philly for advertising, traveling to Brixton for a job in advertising from college bulletin board, jet-setting with a bargain basement ad agency to shop for the most potent weed in Amsterdam, only to return to Baltimore Avenue west of, and in a form absolutely foreign to graduates of any Ivy League school, including, Penn. Johnson does not depict the main character, Chris Jones, mostly likely based on Johnson himself, as a type, but instead as a unique individual dealing with the singular environs of his native Philadelphia spontaneously yet realistically.

Johnson’s second novel, Hunting in Harlem, closely resembles several, some excellent & some mediocre, novels by T. Coraghessan Boyle, the best of which is Tortilla Curtain, and others which include East is East and Water Music: The caricatured silhouettes of character types amidst plots rife with explosive & destructive pandemonium. The plotline of Hunting in Harlem involves a real estate company which researches apartments where middle-aged male bachelors live throughout Harlem in order to kill them for their real estate. While the action in Hunting in Harlem is driven by cartoonish silhouettes, the plotline of Hunting in Harlem is easily codified in less than one sentence for the book’s back cover, because it appears that Hunting in Harlem is intended to be “officially shocking.”  

ARIES – Back in the days of record stores, clerks needed to put albums into categories based upon genre in order to find them – but, after a while, record store executives began to look for & to develop talent in order to saturate that genre’s demographic. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus recall these days of backward thinking to remind the naturally creative Ram not to try to fit ideas into somebody else’s boxes – really, people think outside of the box for good reason.  

TAURUS – If, when reading a book or seeing a movie, you are reminded of another author or director within five minutes, you are confronted with a dilemma, “Why should I go through another person’s version of an experience that I have already had?” 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus declare that there is only one correct answer to this question: This author or director must surprise you.  

GEMINI – At this stage in history, one can get rarefied economic analysis for free, because everybody is fascinated by, and has an interest in, the macroeconomy, not the micro day trader. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus surmise that none of these proprietary infomercials contain anything you won’t hear on Jim Kramer’s Mad Money – because even the homeless know that the market is an unprecedented mess. Think more like Keynes, Friedman or Max than Warrant Buffett. Read Piketty.  

CANCER – A social critic or journalist about social trends has pinpointed the changes in attitudes & behavior of your male spouse or your spouse’s male friends & business partners. While there is little point getting bent out of shape about trends, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus can understand why you don’t like them, “Why do you think you are so much smarter than me? You are not some rarefied expert!”  

LEO – Newspaper editors: The work of a specific journal or freelancer on staff exceeds the scope of the publication   . brilliantly. So brilliantly, in fact, that you feel morally obligated to get them published someplace else. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus remind you that you have more than enough to do that is possible before publishing some starving genius down the yellow brick road, Elton John!  

VIRGO – After O.J. Simpson became the less that professional sports refused to learn, various power blocs in the professional sports media sought to teach lessons about players before a tragedy or catastrophe makes it obvious. Now, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus hope to catalogue a player’s fall from grace before they actually reach that pinnacle from which to descend. How? Because disdainful hubris by itself augurs an eventual downfall.  

LIBRA – A new very ambitious political player emerges in your city. Do you like what they represent? 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus surmise that much depends upon whether you are a lifelong local or a transplant. Either way, you must respect that this player has a power base – and they don’t intend to go away anytime soon.  

SCORPIO – You require the right to argue, to haggle with & to negotiate aggressively with employees, colleagues & vendors. By definition, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus denote that you must allow employees, colleagues & vendors to play by the same exact rules.  

SAGITTARIUS –Your “hot single” or your daily “newspaper column” must appeal to everybody in order for you to make your money – and it does! However, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus declare that you also want the respect of critics who can distinguish the popular from the sublime. Educate yourself about yourself & your work in order to make that happen.  

CAPRICORN – Authors, musicians, artists: you crave the approval of critics – but in order to get their approval, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus remind you that you cannot appeal to them & you cannot address them. Focus exclusively on what you do & how you do it.  

AQUARIUS – A new local intellectual with a well-cultivated voice about urban planning begins to discuss the city where you live in either insightful & manipulative ways. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus state that you need to answer the question, “Does this (Jane Jacobs) (Saskia Sassen) (Christopher Hume) (Richard Florida) have a hidden agenda?”  

PISCES – Certain individuals remain aloof from the herd because they feel they have something special to offer. Whether or not such individuals are justified in feeling that way,1998-SM165, 2002-PN34, Jupiter & Amycus implore you to give them the benefit of the doubt. Engage everyone in conversation. Find out what they think.

ARTICLE #2

Deucalion* in Scorpio sextiles1 Jupiter conjunct2 Amycus@ in Capricorn sextiles1 Neptune in Pisces from July 1 to November 3, 2020. New bosses abound. These new bosses come in two flavors. First, the better educated, compassionate, but, occasionally, yet forgivably, patronizing to your inferior intelligence & rough-edged lifestyle. Second, cocky, with more confidence than ability, and with no compassion for you whatsoever, “Let that stupid, weak douchebag fend for themselves!”  

ARIES – You feel invincible, like an old-style punk on a street corner – and you hate when bosses treat you like you are stupid. Do you treat other people like they are stupid? Then Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune warn that you have enemies. Watch your back.  

TAURUS – A college education instills in one repulson for the vulgar. Such repulsion sticks in the throat of well-educated Bulls under the current influence of Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune. The coronavirus quarantine has brought out even more disgusting things in the worst of us. Reinforce the astral moat of the castle of your inherent personal solitude.  

GEMINI – Keep in frequent touch with financial brokers. Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune signify that vicissitudes within the macroeconomy will occur for irrational & incorrect reasons. What had worked back in the day may not work now. Allow many people with their nose to society’s grindstone to alert, to appraise & to help you exploit other people’s somnambulistic errors.  

CANCER – A spouse or business partner cannot inform you in specific terms because their professional practice is foreign to you However, if you don’t understand how such a spouse or business partner can predict such trends, Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune encourage you to ask. Don’t be afraid to appear stupid – it is not stupid to be uninformed. The underlying concept may be simple to explain.  

LEO – Control the virulent & insulting wrath that employees in your charge exhibit towards your company’s goldbricks. Far from feeling protection, Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune declare that your uncharacteristic charity towards employees you hate will intimidate them intensely. Smile at these bums as your team of carnivores leave the room cursing, “Now that we all hate you, what are you going to do for us?”  

VIRGO – Insulting your spouse or business partner will get you nowhere – Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune guarantee that they will insult you in return. What are you trying to achieve, anyway? Are you trying to achieve anything?  

LIBRA – As long as your employees try hard, offer encouragement. Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune only give you license to chastise, to berate or to coerce others if those employees do not care.  

SCORPIO – Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune compel you to speak filthy erotica to your main squeeze at moments when they cannot do anything about it. Be satanically cruel so as to be angelically kind.  

SAGITTARIUS – Your advanced knowledge of science, psychology or theology informs you of what is wrong with family members & what they need next. You have the money – Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune implore you to hire the experts & bring them to your family member or that family member to them. Steel yourself from inappropriate weak emotions. Waste no time.  

CAPRICORN – A hard stud or hot babe flirts with you when they say, “You’re so damned smart that I don’t understand one word of anything you say at all!” Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune insist that that stud or babe is not speaking insincerely – but they are trying to get into your underpants. How refreshingly old-fashioned! Act accordingly as you end the lecture.   

AQUARIUS – A callous, unscrupulous boss behind the scenes will treat you & your colleagues as if you are so stupid that they can manipulate you at will. Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune state that, while a knee jerk reaction will quickly fail, a well-devised strategy will succeed. Reconnaissance!  

PISCES – While cocky & ambitious associates who underestimate you will fail, Deucalion, Jupiter, Amycus & Neptune denote that associates who make you an ally will conquer! Unleash your formidable power.  

* Deucalion is a transneptunian object (TNO) discovered on April 18, 1999. Deucalion, the son of Prometheus & Clymene, is the Greek counterpart of Noah, as Zeus saved Deucalion & his wife Pyrrha, who rode upon an ark, from a flood that devastated mankind.  

@ Amycus, a centaur planet which crosses across the orbits of Uranus & Neptune between the orbit of Saturn & the more remote portion of the orbit of Pluto, was discovered in April 2002 and named in December 2005. Amycus was the first centaur to engage in battle with the Lapiths by smashing the face of the Lapith Celadon with a candelabrum stripped from the inmost wedding shrine.

ARTICLE #3

1998-SM165< conjunct1 2002-PN34> in Taurus trines2 2001-BL41@ in Capricorn from July 2 to November 20, 2020. Is there a market for “everybody’s story” – even when everybody’s story is about the same exact story? Yes! Is it called, “The Illustrated Complete Volume of Everybody’s Story about This or That?” No. It is called, “The Comments Section.”  

ARIES –Not only middle-class citizens but also very powerful lawyers & academics feel they lack an outlet to express their ideas. Therefore, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 suggest that one can find a lot of working ideas in the comments section of a website of a major newspaper on some issue of broad if not deep significance. Bypass the political sewers. Choose comments sections on unexpected topics.  

TAURUS –1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 advise you to expect more newspaper articles & books about “Trumpian economics.” Copycats want the Midas touch. Consult your own capacity for arithmetic before consulting such “experts.”  

GEMINI – Stock tips & guru infomercials about the next global economic sea change proliferate under the current influence of 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41. Don’t expect any of these supposed golden boys to hit the bull’s eye twice. Nobody has seen this one before. Count your pennies.  

CANCER – Whether talking about writers, musicians, entertainers or journalists, critics who use the phrase “a dime a dozen,” are actually being unwittingly charitable, as 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 suggest that they might be worth a lot less than that. What does one expect when all these people really are doing the same thing?  

LEO – Newspaper editors: Very few of the comments within the comment sections of any of the articles which carry them could stand on its own as a legitimate piece of writing – but 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 remind you that that is not what the comments section is supposed to do. None of these people are trying to stand out on their own – all of them are trying to stand out within a group.  

VIRGO – How many professional football players without a Super Bowl ring get the opportunity to work as a television announcer for a major network? Damn few. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 urge you to think hard, “With so many retired athletes available for this job, why did it go to these guys?”  

LIBRA – The local tax base has enjoyed increase to its coffers as a result of the migration to, and gentrification within, your city, engineered & financed by outsiders. 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 declare that these outsiders are individuals with minds of their own who may not agree with the historical ways of your city where you grew up & live. Hear them out without dismissing anything that they say out of hand.  

SCORPIO – Work with less people. The more people with whom you work, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 warn that the less control you will be able to exert over your public relations. Reduce public exposure.  

SAGITTARIUS – Either a positive review or word of mouth help your business tremendously under the current influence of 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41, so much so that sales will soon slide on their own grease. Save all written positive criticism & testimonials – you may get too hot not to cool down.  

CAPRICORN – Small high-tech business executives: 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 insist that all you want & need is to be listed in the fund that brokers will sell to clients filling their 401K & IRAs. No more – no less.  

AQUARIUS – New transplants to your city can’t wait to tell you & everybody about what they think of their “new city.” 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 notice that you re not interested – you are more inclined to tell people you know what you think about these new transplants.  

PISCES –Talk with as many new employees in your industry sector or city as you can. While not everybody’s insight will be unique, 1998-SM165, 2002-PN34 & 2001-BL41 state that even & especially repeated ideas carry weight. Learn what people – everybody! – really thinks.

ARTICLE #4

Asbolus@ conjuncts* the North Node$ in Gemini from July 25 to October 28, 2020. “I was very surprised when my husband said, “I don’t believe Donald Trump when says he listens to his gut in order to make decisions,’” the wife talked to her sister & girlfriends. “After all, that kind of language is a guy’s language – it’s a guy’s way of saying he questions his fear through instinct. My husband continued, ‘Trump does not work with the type of people who rely upon their instinct to survive. A hunter uses his instinct to know which way or when a moose or a deer will move, which way or when a bird will fly or when a fisherman deep-sea fishing, like the protagonist in Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea, uses his instinct to control & to reel in a flaying animal. One doesn’t sit in an office with scientists, urban planners & economists looking at Excel downloads & pivot tables to gaze into his inner primate – but one will claim to do so when one can find a way to make a decision benefit that one & that one alone, whether or not it benefits anybody else.’ Then my husband’s conclusion really shocked me, ‘Donald Trump is a phony but a success as a politician because he is a bigger phony as a man.’”  

ARIES – The swath of bankruptcies & closed storefronts in your local area bespeak untold opportunities for somebody. Whether the government offers assistance to small businesses on the commercial strip or not, Asbolus conjunct the North Node confirms that nature abhors a vacuum. Concentrate & meditate upon what people need – not necessarily what people will buy.  

TAURUS – Newspapers provided tons of information & diversions cheaply every day because all sorts of advertising underwrote its major debt. Asbolus conjunct the North Node states that just because the Internet usurped all the large scale advertisers does not make the business model obsolete. How low can you drop your costs & maintain a profitable circulation?  

GEMINI – The more data one processes, the more it mutates not only the data but also the one processing it. As one processing data, Asbolus conjunct the North Node advises you to consider that one disturbing word “mutate.” To mutate is neutral; to transform is good; to debase is bad. Heed these distinctions.  

CANCER – Dreams about horrific urban disasters are not necessarily prophecies. Asbolus conjunct the North Node reminds the sensitive Crab that the unconscious processes all sorts of negativity. You can’t block out the bad news forever. The world can be a dangerous place – but, if you are alert, you can avoid that danger. Don’t hide your head in the sane. Don’t let it all rattle you.  

LEO – Every workplace endures a certain amount of stress to get their work done for clients or customers – and when a client or customer complains, whether behind the scenes or in front of everybody, stress increases. Asbolus conjunct the North Node states that, while your workplace should honor most criticism, certain complaints require a professional manager to inform the client, “That’s not how we do business.” This task falls to you.  

VIRGO – A boss who demands a superhuman effort must demonstrate that that boss is putting forth a superhuman effort themselves. While direct confrontation is never a wise idea, Asbolus conjunct the North Node absolutely recommends that you keep score. A time will come to settle accounts.  

LIBRA – Lawyers: Avoid working for litigants who use litigation as a tool for business rather than as a means of settling disputes. Asbolus conjunct the North Node guarantee that at some point, such litigants will sue you in order to avoid paying you. When these litigants try to use flattery to lure you into their spider web, soft-peddle – and obfuscate – your disinterest.  

SCORPIO – Asbolus conjunct the North Node severely warns that a divorce or the severing of a business partnership can turn into a bitter scandal & betrayal if you don’t swallow your pride. Keep this behind closed doors. Settle.  

SAGITTARIUS – A spouse or partner who issues dark warnings of your profligate ways knows whereof they speak. Asbolus conjunct the North Node implores you not to learn the hard way. Heed the oracle.  

CAPRICORN – Merchants: While you know what strategies to deploy to forestall shoplifting, large-scale retail theft & large-scale retail arbitrage, Asbolus conjunct the North Node insists that you need more & better personnel on your staff to protect valuable inventory that you cannot afford to lose. Hire real pros.  

AQUARIUS – Musicians who play heavy metal & thrash: King Crimson’s “Indiscipline” on King Crimson’s Discipline is not an undisciplined musical composition – just like when Abstract Expressionist Jackson Pollock says, “I can control the flow of the paint.” Which leads Asbolus conjunct the North Node to surmise, “It is not as easy as it looks.” Become more skeptical of what you are doing.  

PISCES – Extremely dark dreams frighten the young children in your family. Asbolus conjunct the North Node advises that this might not be something that you can help. Help if you can – otherwise, simply stand by.

@ Asbolus, named after the psychic centaur whose wisdom was completely ignored while his foolishness was universally emulated, was discovered in April 1995 & named in September 1999. Asbolus, which embodies the higher mind in the lower self, bridges the gap in consciousness between Jupiter & Neptune, warning us not to take our “leaders” at face value.

$ The North Node and the South Node, or the Nodes of the Moon, represent current & past life karma, respectively, according to astrologer Martin Schulman. Astronomically, the North Node & the South Node are the two points at which the Moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic, setting a timetable for large-scale Solar & Lunar Eclipses over time.

ARTICLE #5

Neptune in Pisces trines2 1998-VG44< conjunct1 2001-SQ73> in Cancer from July 1 to November 20, 2020. Never before has there been a demand so high for news that nobody wants to hear. But, be warned: Even though everybody wants this news that nobody wants to hear, (because everybody has a stake in this news that everybody wants to hear, even though the money involved in this stake goes down in value all of the time) the news must, in & of itself, be self-evidently correct as well as verified by all appropriate third parties, because groups of individuals who share collective interests rely upon this information to make individual as well as collective decisions.. None of this news is good news – everybody already knows that. Which is why it has never been more dangerous for somebody who opposes the consensus – especially such a consensus that all the news is absolutely bad – to offer, contrary to all available facts & widespread public opinion . . . false hope.  

ARIES – Did all your siblings grow up in the city where you now live? If so, then Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 confirm that you, and all your peers & the peers of your siblings, know what you know, about the world & about each other, because you all grew up knowing the same people, places & things. Outsiders can fool one of your individually – but get you, your siblings & peers in the same room, and those outsiders face a brick wall that they will never be able to crack.  

TAURUS – Ah, the revisionist history of political discussions in the barroom after the fourth round of drinks! What is fact & what is opinion – except that one’s colleagues’ & adversaries’ opinions are but facts in themselves? Outside the barroom, facts need to confirm two separate reliable sources so that they may be presented to the public as fact. All that being said, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 insist that what occurs in a barroom has nothing at all in common with the public opinion of the common man. Keep “opinion” & “fact” permanently separate in your consciousness.  

GEMINI – You’ve divided your money into so many different accounts, including large-scale money market accounts that you rarely consult, and you have been adding & withdrawing from several of those different accounts simultaneously over time, that you really have no idea how much money you have, both in terms of net worth & in terms of what you have available right now. Not only is this an inconvenience when you must make financial decisions about what money you can & you cannot spend, but Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 declare that it could also become an obstacle, should other business interests wish to make you an offer.  

CANCER – The more that you have traveled the world, the more that such travel has colored the way your various levels of education & your various forays into organized religion & New Age spirituality have influenced your core personality. Furthermore, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 note that not all of these influences have integrated seamlessly – nor will they. The Crab’s ruler is the Moon – the Crab is a different person when the Moon is in Taurus than when the Moon is in Scorpio. This is not a debilitating weakness – it is a complex & unfathomable strength. The kaleidoscope of you!  

LEO – Unseemly news accompanies news of professional developments at your company. Of course, you, personally, are very interested in the new assignments, promotions & general shakeup of the different departments, many with whom you will be working. However, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 also reveals very unpleasant legal news about a specific individual, replete with even more gossip surrounding them about many other different people. The actual news about the specific individual is truly unfortunate but the gossip reflects not any attempt to discern or to discover the truth but seems to titillate the prurient interests of the emotionally callous for immature & counterproductive reasons. Refuse to indulge such cheap, mean-spirited, low-minded amusement.  

VIRGO – During the recent criminal trial of former NFL tight end Kellen Winslow, Jr. in San Diego, the defense attorney for Winslow asked a 58-year-old homeless woman who accused Winslow of raping her if she recognized a photograph of Winslow’s black Hummer. Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 highlights this detail of this disturbingly lurid trial to remind everybody, but especially men, that when women feel extremely upset because they personally, or as a gender, feel threatened with sexual violence from men, details which may be clear to a safe & secure viewer watching this “episode” on “television” spin around in an internal, psychological kaleidoscope of blood, genitals, dirt, spit & tears – and they may remember things that do not correspond to, to use such cold impersonal terms, “the facts of the case.” But does that mean that he did not rape her?  

LIBRA – While accountants auditing the books have no intention of releasing proprietary information, upper level professional management at your employer knows well that there are very few employees sophisticated enough to fathom the real political & financial state of affairs where you work – the rest of them simply don’t have, and do not want, a clue. However much you would like to know exactly what is going on, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73  encourage you to ask yourself, and to respond truthfully, “Out of those very few employees who are privy to enough information to understand what is happening at work – do any of them really want to understand any of it?”  

SCORPIO – Some people have the gall to spread gossip about somebody from their hometown who now lives in another country on the other side of the continent whom they have not seen for twenty years – after all, how are you going to find out the real story, hmmm? Well, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 signify that you are not about to give up so easy. After you do your initial internet search, complete with perusals of Facebook, LinkedIn and all sorts of subsidiary social media sites, you will do what people did back in the day: You will talk with a friend of a friend of a friend. Once you get a more credible lead, you’ll be able to use the Internet much more efficiently . . . and you will be able to contradict those who doubted that you had any resources at all.  

SAGITTARIUS – While it is now imperative for you to keep track of your money, for your own sake & the sake of your family, it is still only money. Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 demand that you find a way to get clear & correct information about whether a family member who has been engaging in vice on the wrong side of town is in trouble with the law. Don’t worry if that family member is broke now – just get down to the bottom of the cold hard truth so that you may know whether or not the legal status of this family member will allow them to earn the money that they will need for the rest of their lives. Find yourself a hero or heroine to save your family member from damnation in this living Hell!  

CAPRICORN – Does any of the gossip, rumor, innuendo or disinformation of your spouse, partner, rival or . . . whoever . . . have any bearing on any issues of genuine worldly significance? If so, Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 warn you that you will need to conduct repeat, obtuse, long & enervating interrogations to find out: 1) What certain people say; and 2) What certain people mean – before determining whether what certain people say or mean is correct & accurate. If not, you will need to conduct repeat, obtuse, long & enervating interrogations to get to the bottom of things that you really did not need to know. Determine beforehand whether or not it really is worthwhile or if it is a waste of time.  

AQUARIUS – Don’t take workplace gossip seriously. While it is not always the case that, “what you don’t know cannot hurt you,” Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 state that this is case concerning what you & your insular clique do not know about the inner workings of your professional workplace, right now. Ignorance is bliss!  

PISCES – Like all the guys, you can talk about business, you can talk dividends, price-to-earning ratio & market capitalization, you can discuss five-year effects of the trade war on your entire industry sector, you can brag on your favorite NFL team  – but you also have opinions as to what color nail polish Kim Kardashian should wear, you have a passionate argument as to whether Paris Hilton has had breast implants, and you will also contribute a gift of your own to the new mother when your wife asks you to drive her to her best friend’s baby shower. What gives? Real simple: Neptune, 1998-VG44 & 2001-SQ73 empower you to make an impression on other people in every possible circumstance in life . . . . to communicate that you really care about them. It is not all about money & power! Michael Strahan works seven days a week!

1 A Conjunction is a harmonious aspect wherein two or more planets meet as they transit the same sign.  

2 A Trine is a harmonious aspect between or amongst planets transiting signs of like element (elements being Fire, Earth, Air & Water).  

ARTICLE #6

Echeclus@ conjuncts* the North Node$ in Gemini from July 5 to August 12, 2020. The proper reopening of the U.S. economy following the coronavirus quarantine must be absolutely transparent on both macro & micro levels because such transparency exists strictly for the service of the safety & the health of the overall population. Rebelling against compliance is not enlightened but criminally transgressive with the plan to protect all within, and the entire, collective.  

ARIES – After a short period of time at a new job or school, one’s daily commute becomes so sublimated into one’s unconscious that even the detours become second nature. Echeclus conjunct the North Node will now make the muscle memory of time-inculcated habit supra-conscious – you will intuit what changes must come & why.  

TAURUS – Merchants: Your daily routine costs Y dollars but sells for Z dollars, leaving you with a profit of X dollars. Echeclus conjunct the North Node signifies that X will now fluctuate because of Z. Use innovation, marketing & technological, to reduce Y, to increase Z – and to compound the increase of X.  

GEMINI – You may think that you know yourself like the back of your hand – but you cannot know your unconscious processes. Echeclus conjunct the North Node denotes that the road to growth likes in tapping these unconscious processes – liberating the positive by clearing out the negative via Uranus in Taurus in your 12th house. Kundalini Yoga!  

CANCER – Echeclus conjunct the North Node denotes that psychotherapy can now provide untold benefits. Turn light onto your darkest memories & deepest fears – then sandblast with fierce jets of water.  

LEO – Both clients & vendors will both be on the same page about professional protocol during the aftermath of the coronavirus quarantine. Therefore, to remain proper & amicable, Echeclus conjunct the North Node strongly advises against hard-line, mean-spirited nickel-and-dime negotiating. Adjust to the new protocol together without initiating adversarial economic relations.  

VIRGO – Bosses’ bosses have trained your bosses in the macro goals & purposes, as well as the micro procedures, inherent in the post-coronavirus quarantine new professional order – including the fact that Echeclus conjunct the North Node explicitly states that these bosses’ bosses will monitor your bosses’ behavior very closely.  

LIBRA – Echeclus conjunct the North Node denotes that Libra, sign of the written law, must master the details of the post-coronavirus quarantine new professional order as soon as possible.  

SCORPIO – When one signs a contract or gets married, one should know fairly well one’s obligation to one’s partner, as well as how a partner is obligated to you. Echeclus conjunct the North Node warns that what many people don’t know is how many ways a criminal false friend can implicate you in their criminal behavior. Is there someone in your life who would use such knowledge against you?  

SAGITTARIUS – Partners & rivals expect you to start a power struggle based upon how well you know each other. For that reason, Echeclus conjunct the North Node advises you to distance yourself from such friends, rivals & “rivals as friends.” Let circumstances dictate your next move.  

CAPRICORN – Merchants: Echeclus conjunct the North Node insists that the best that you can do to prepare to thwart shoplifters, large-scale retail thieves & large-scale retail arbitrage is to address every potential weakness in your store based upon personal experience & everything that you have read. If a genius security analyst or detective is available, hire them – they may be able to anticipate & to thwart “innovation.”  

AQUARIUS – Musicians: Aquarius the Waterbearer is the natural innovator of the zodiac who develops something new beyond all they know. It therefore behooves Aquarians under the current influence of Echeclus conjunct the North Node to learn everything about contemporary music they possibly can. You can create what is next!  

PISCES – A family member envisions the destiny of your family. A local citizen envisions the future of your city. Don’t scoff. Echeclus conjunct the North Node urges Pisces the Fish to become this prophet’s “co-conspirator.” Ask questions which “open the door.”

@ Echeclus, a centaur planet that traverses from the orbit of Jupiter to the orbit of Uranus, was discovered in March 2000 & named in February 2006. Echeclus, in the battle fought between the Centaurs & the Lapiths, died as the Lapith Ampyx threw his spear without a tip directly into Echeclus's face as Echeclus was attacking Ampyx at full gallop. For information on how to interpret Echeclus, formerly 2000-EC98, note reference to Philip Sedgwick below.

$ The North Node and the South Node, or the Nodes of the Moon, represent current & past life karma, respectively, according to astrologer Martin Schulman. Astronomically, the North Node & the South Node are the two points at which the Moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic, setting a timetable for large-scale Solar & Lunar Eclipses over time.

ARTICLE #8

Uranus conjunct1
Albion< conjunct1 1996-TR66> in Taurus trines2
Nessus* in Pisces
from July 9 to September 11, 2020.

Funny thing about the character Nick the bartender in the classic Frank Capra Christmas film It’s a Wonderful Life, where George Bailey, played by Jimmy Stewart, endures misfortune & is then shown, via the dark benevolence of his guardian angel, Clarence, what would have happened to his hometown, Bedford Falls, if he had very been born.

In the life where George had in fact been born, George endures misfortune. Clarence, his guardian angel, saves George from committing suicide as Clarence jumps in the freezing yet turbulent local river within his hometown of Bedford Falls so that George will save him. George had just left Martini’s Bar, where Nick has worked as a bartender. Nick had shown explicit concern for Mr. Bailey, uncharacteristically drunk at Martini’s alone on Christmas Eve, when another customer walks up to George & punches him in the face. Nick, at the behest of Mr. Martini, throws the violent customer out of the bar.

In the life where George had never been born, Nick works as a bartender at the same bar in the same town, but the town is now named Pottersville, and the bar is now called Nick’s. Needless to say, Nick gets a little suspicious when George continually refers to him as “Nick” – which is, of course, his name – but, as George had never been born, Nick had never seen George before in his life. Nick finally had enough when George’s companion, his guardian angel Clarence, upon hearing the cash register ring, stated, “Every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings.” Nick, pursuing his own self-interest, throws George & Clarence out of the bar.

Then, exasperated yet amused, Nick returns to the cash register, and continually punches the button marked, “sale,” again & again for the amusement of his extremely crowded Pottersville bar, “Look at me, I’m giving out wings.”

So, in the end, because George Bailey did in fact become born & live in Bedford Falls, he made everything in that town better, nicer & more decent – including Nick the bartender, who, nevertheless, on any given day, may indeed be throwing troublemakers out of the bar.  

ARIES –When a supplicant asks a potential benefactor for help, it rarely helps the supplicant when the benefactor gives the supplicant money. Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus signify that it helps the supplicant much more & for much longer when the supplicant has no idea how the benefactor helped – even if it does involve money. Know who is in control & why – control is earned, not given.  

TAURUS – Random acquaintances who induce you to express an opinion seeks to steer your unconscious loyalties. While you are not shy in expressing your opinions amongst friends, Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus surmise that you know who your real friends are. Share no banter with garrulous manipulators.  

GEMINI – Bosses make counterintuitive management decisions to force you to cover the shortfall of professional labor in order to shrink the expenditures on the budget to assume credit at the end of the quarter & the year. Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus add that there will never come a time where this boss will explain what the company is doing – it is hard to understand, let alone explain. Long story short, this boss uses you lack of knowledge about this issue against your own self-interest. Wait for the opportunity to turn the tables.  

CANCER – When a Panamanian bank where “Boston George” Jung deposited the proceeds of his cocaine trafficking empire discovered the origin of the account’s proceeds within the movie Blow, the bank seized all assets. Given the current primacy of money laundering laws, Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus signify that this same thing can happen to any criminal. Rest assured: The banker will still smile.  

LEO – You are well aware that certain employees will never cooperate – but Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus command, “Cooperate they must.” Delegate a proxy to instruct the uncooperative – then flood that proxy with instructions. Dislodge the sloths, “Either produce or evacuate!”  

VIRGO – Suing the dead, eh? Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus indicate that it is all about the primacy of law. The bad blood no longer flows, the logic no longer harbors inherent hostility: It will be thrown out of court for obvious reasons or it will go to appellate because of legal contradiction. But as for the facts – the dead are buried. Rest in peace.  

LIBRA – When New York City’s “Dirtiest Cop Ever” Michael Dowd was a rookie on uniformed patrol, corrupt police colleagues already on the job tempted Dowd to see if he was prone to corruption by giving him free pizza. While Dowd eventually became a coke dealer &^ hit man for the local drug cartel, Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus state that, just like when a cop comes up through the ranks, Dowd needed to come up via the local standing order of corruption before becoming . . the Dirtiest Cop Ever.  

SCORPIO – Men: Of course, you spend money on a date – and, to get laid, you may spend extravagantly. But Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus now demand that you get your wallet in line with your penis & your heart. An expensive dinner & a clean hotel room for a date – the bridal suite with a private chef on a Caribbean island with your wife. Avoid confusing your expressed intent.  

SAGITTARIUS – An ongoing & intimate dialogue with a medical assistant devoted to the daily care of an elderly loved one is of paramount importance under the current influence of Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus. Certain medical assistants are extremely hardened souls. You are paying for compassionate care – not the warehousing of family corpses. Demand to employ an individual borne of love.  

CAPRICORN – Ross Bleckner’s paintings of doves against black backgrounds dedicated to victims of AIDS in SoHo’s Mary Boone Gallery on New York City’s West Broadway in May & June 1994 evoked spirituality & immortality with religious iconography devoid of dogma. Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus give Bleckner & painters like him a chance to make a meaningful statement about the coronavirus pandemic. Good luck & Godspeed.  

AQUARIUS – Many workplace friendships generally represent relationships of proximity & convenience. Now, however, Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus declare that one such relationship will prove much deeper & much more influential, on spiritual & reincarnational levels, than you ever anticipated.  

PISCES – The truth of your explicit reproach damns permanently & acutely under the current influence of Uranus, Albion, 1996-TR66 & Nessus. Make sure that those punished by your wrath are worthy of its unending onerous burden.  

< Albion is the first “cubewano” or low-eccentricity transneptunian object (TNO) (named after its provisional designation 1992-QB1), located more than halfway between the orbits of Neptune and Pluto at aphelion discovered on August 30, 1992. Albion (which is also the ancient Greek name for the island of Great Britain) is named after the son of Poseidon, who, along with his brother Dercynus or Bergion, died during their attack upon Hercules as he passed through Albion’s homeland of Liguria, 

> 1996-TR66 is an unnamed transneptunian object (TNO) discovered on October 8, 1996.

* Nessus, named after the centaur whose bloodied & semen-stained shirt eventually killed Hercules, was discovered during the siege at Waco in April 1993 & named in 1997. Nessus bridges the gap in consciousness between Saturn & Pluto, forcing us to discard naivete about jealousy, anger, irrationality & evil in ourselves & in others so that we may cultivate the will & the stomach to evolve as a species.

ARTICLE #10

Uranus conjunct1 1996-TR66@ in Taurus opposes2 2002-CR46* in Scorpio from May 21 to October 3, 2020. The electronic money trail of criminal suspects allegedly engaged in the trafficking of various types of contraband yields, as it will, more than the usual suspects. Is this woman listed as a passenger on three immediately successive international flights, in one day, a player, a victim, a mule or a decoy? Is this man, now wiring cash into an account into which only another family member had deposited or withdrawn complicit, liable or oblivious? And, “Isn’t that the name of that prominent politician from . . . Miami? Guadalajara? Who is that, anyway?”  

ARIES – Cash transactions provide no records accountable to your name. Checks or credit cards provide records accountable to your name – because that is the point. Therefore, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 exhort you to be alert for those who use cash, checks or credit cards when it is clearly inappropriate. Ask yourself, “Who are they trying to deceive? Why?”  

TAURUS – Don’t let new acquaintances or business partners try to manipulate social situations so that you become affiliated with a lot of people whom you don’t know. If such new acquaintances or business partners invite you to a party, fine – that’s a social affair where you can meet whom you want based upon your own free will. But Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 warn that your affiliation with such new people engineered by such new acquaintances or business partners is not addressed towards your better interests but to some unseen third party for some hidden agenda executed by said new acquaintances or business partners. Do not let third parties choose your associates for you without your consent – if not actually against your will. Do not be afraid to exclude.  

GEMINI – Accountants, auditors: Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 denote that all that you need to know about employees’ or colleagues’ honest or dishonesty is contained in electronic paper trails of all of their individual & collective account statements.  

CANCER – Look – Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 ask, “Amongst this group of people, do you want to network for business or do you want to party & to hunt down a mate for sex? You can do one or the other – but if you try to do them both, you will inevitably create a really big mess.  

LEO – Professional changes force you to react quickly on such a non-stop basis that you are more enervated & stressed than exhausted. For that reason, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 warn that you will have very little patience with family members & roommates whose primary ambition in life is to do no work & to party all the time with truly worthless friends. Count to ten before you demonstrate that famous Leo temper!  

VIRGO – You ask different questions of different people to learn who is withholding information from whom & who is sharing secrets behind your back. Even if you get the answers to your questions relatively quickly, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 advise you not to confront & not to exclude anybody just yet. Keep score – and find out what dirt-bag players try to do next.  

LIBRA – As much as you would like to discover the full truth of what is now transpiring, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 exhort you to segregate yourself from all people whom you suspect engage in corruption. The number of people involved is increasing – and the black hole is gaining extreme gravity. Bail out!  

SCORPIO – If a partner or rival gets a little too aggressive or pushy for your comfort, or, worse yet, tries to demand that you exclude other people from your life against your will, then Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 recommend that you remind that individual that they are outnumbered. That should work!

SAGITTARIUS – A very funny colleague in your workplace harbors some very shady connections. While there is no reason why you should refrain yourself from amusement & entertainment by such charismatic characters, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 whisper in your ear that you stand to lose professionally if bosses believe that you owe your loyalties to borderline criminal class clowns. Segregate yourself from the peanut gallery very aggressively.  

CAPRICORN – Writers, painters, sculptors: Critics will misinterpret your new works of innovative genius under the current influence of Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46. As long as they stand united against you for ideological reasons, the public will understand. Rebel with a cause!  

AQUARIUS – Network with real estate agents. Furthermore, whether your primary priority is local grocery shopping or schools for your children, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 empower you to research all that you need in order to liberate you & your family completely by finding, then buying into, the perfect place to live. Barricade you & your loved ones into the idyllic suburban cul-de-sac.

PISCES – A lot of your work colleagues don’t want to get arrested, either! Not when everybody is making such thick money. But, still, you can all laugh about it – can’t you? Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-CR46 insists that you can – no matter how dark the joke is. The laughter is what brings you together against “what is funny” & makes you safe. What are you doing that is illegal? It’s only a joke. (Thank God!)  

@ 1996-TR66 is an unnamed transneptunian object (TNO) discovered on October 8, 1996.

* 2002-CR46, officially named “Typhon”, is a transneptunian object (TNO) discovered on February 2, 2002. The orbit of 2002-CR46 traverses between the orbit of Uranus out past the orbit of Pluto.

ARTICLE #11

Cyllarus$ in Cancer opposes@ Saturn in Capricorn from July 4 to August 30, 2020. A quiet colleague disinclined to talk about investments or the stock market murmurs a quiet aside for only you to hear, “Better talk to your broker to ensure that nothing in your portfolio is exposed to correction.” Notice this colleague is selling you . . . nothing. This is good advice & costs you nothing. Follow it.  

ARIES – Bosses no longer demand extraordinary amounts of labor that sometimes command physical risk – but they still demand a day of hard work. Cyllarus & Saturn declare that this is reasonable. Comply.  

TAURUS – You may wonder, “Will I be in danger from overaggressive cops if I hang out at certain bars?” Cyllarus & Saturn respond that cops only hover in the background because of recent flare-ups. If you are not a usual suspect, then relax & have a drink. If you are a usual suspect, then . . . what are you doing there?  

GEMINI – Cyllarus & Saturn advise you to call your broker to ask, “Is anything in my portfolio exposed to correction?” Tighten up investment vulnerabilities.

CANCER – Read Capricorn. The temperament of your spouse is no longer erratic, but as taciturn & dour as normal. Good! Cyllarus & Saturn put you in the familiar position of cheering this Gloomy Gus up. Invite friends to hang out with both of you, “Now put on your court jester hat & crack a smile for me.” Smile mischievously.  

LEO – Your reputation amongst junior professionals skyrocketed after you busted a colleague or employee who had incriminated themselves to you. Cyllarus & Saturn state that you no longer need to “incentivize” or “inspire” the new junior professionals in this recent criminal’s wake. Get even more first-class effort out of them.  

VIRGO – Cyllarus & Saturn announce that the alpha-male student athlete capable of serving as a role model finally arrives! Follow their lead – like Mark Messier or Michael Jordan, this superstar is only interested in honorable, excellent & historically memorable championships!  

LIBRA – New local government professionals & civic leaders noticed & respected how you put pressure to bear on recent leadership who did not take their responsibilities seriously – and Cyllarus & Saturn say that they want to meet you, “We’ve heard a lot about you – and we like everything we’ve heard. We will not disappoint you!”  

SCORPIO – Because Cyllarus & Saturn echo the didacticism of the great astrologer Sally Brompton, “Words spoken in haste will be repented at leisure,” it behooves the wise Scorpion, “Why say anything at all?” Why, indeed.  

SAGITTARIUS – If you have already demonstrated disrespect for your money, you will have already lost it. If not – well, Cyllarus & Saturn both remind the financially ambitious Archer that “not losing money” is not a valid goal. Step one – which some people think is “Do not waste money” – is really, “Save every penny.” Don’t just eliminate moronic habits – cultivate intelligent, virtuous habits.  

CAPRICORN – Read Cancer. When your spouse teases you, that means that they are happy with you. That’s all well & good – but Cyllarus & Saturn want to know, “What makes you happy with yourself?”  

AQUARIUS – Keep your kitchen & dining room clean. Because you will be so busy at work, Cyllarus & Saturn strongly advise you to treat where you have breakfast & dinner as a sacred space to help you get your mind out of the enervating psychological train wreck of the professional workplace.  

PISCES – A child notices your or another adult’s dour, preoccupied demeanor but simply does not understand. When the child asks you, “What’s wrong?” or “What’s wrong with your friend?”, Cyllarus & Saturn offer only one broad explanation, “Sometimes being an adult simply is not a lot of fun.”  

$ Cyllarus, a centaur planet that traverses between Uranus & Pluto, was discovered in October 1998 & named in June 2003. Cyllarus, the noble husband of Hylonome, was killed by a random spear from an unknown hand in the battle between the Centaurs & the Lapiths. Upon witnessing the death of Cyllarus, Hylonome committed suicide by jumping on the spear that killed her husband in order to die with him. For further information on how to interpret Cyllarus, formerly 1998-TF35, note reference to Philip Sedgwick below.

Uranus conjunct1 1996-TR66* in Taurus squares2 2002-VR130@ in Leo from March 2 to September 29, 2020. Because this has rarely been the case recently, the party line from management dictates that everybody on the team is working towards the same goal. Indeed, recently, in cases both benign & nefarious, the loyalties of many individuals on “the team” bore no relationship to their current official affiliation whatsoever. As a result, too many disloyal synergies perpetuated themselves. Of course, when each & every coach, manager & public relations director asserts that everybody on the team serves a niche function in pursuit of the same goals, that manager, coach & public relations director are forever on the lookout for information which either inculcates their public proclamation or which summarily & permanently nullifies it. In this context, the manager, coach or public relations director can still reward individuals for their overall contribution to the team, but it is far more important that the manager, coach or public relations director reward the team, in the presence of the entire team, for everything that the team does on a permanent basis – and for when everybody on the team puts forth that extra effort to ensure that the entire team wins!  

ARIES – Power brokers get rid of employees, peers & teammates who promote their own interests against the overall organization & their peers. Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 now remind you that power brokers intend to set up your economic circumstance so that your self-interest relies upon upholding the self-interest of all your teammates & the organization at large. Forget the phony talk – the numbers of all the players will emphasize the brand-new rule that nobody will be allowed to put an “I” in “team!”  

TAURUS – One big happy family! Except, as Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 now tease, “Except for you – you’re weird!” Pay no attention – if this group really thought that you were weird, they would not have accepted you in the first place. Tell all those happy family members, “I may be weird, but you love me – move over so I can get in the picture.” Gorgonzola cheese!  

GEMINI – Someone within your posse blurts out a secret that they heard about you from your secret enemies in front of the whole posse. Is that someone truly your friend whom your secret enemies have manipulated or a secret enemy themselves? Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 provide no clear answer. In the end, you must test them. Ask them, when alone, how they found out that information. Explain, once you find out that information, your boundaries. Then give it time, and live in doubt, to see what develops.  

CANCER – Do your associates invite you to socialize with them – or do they demand it? Team spirit is one thing, but Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 emphasize that your money, that you earn at work, is yours. If your associates demand that you spend all of that money with them, you are no longer exactly an employee – but what exactly are you?  Class consciousness!

LEO – Bosses either approve of those with whom you affiliate or they do not. If they do, you will never notice – but if they don’t, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 guarantee that bosses will say or do something about your or the company that you keep that you will not be able to disregard – and upon which you may be forced to take immediate action.  

VIRGO – Word filters down from bureaucratic & institutional enemies that you are guilty until proven innocent. This may be nothing more & nothing less than outright bigotry – but Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 remind you that that does not necessarily increase your odds of getting away unscathed. Murphy’s Law requires Murphy’s Lawyers!  

LIBRA – Professional associates, whether they affiliate with you or not, are all on the lookout for fellow associates “on the take with their cronies.” On that note, while it is true that “better alone than in bad company,” Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 nevertheless add that you & others can & will be judged by “the company you keep.”  

SCORPIO – You know well the feeling of paranoia that extremely strict law enforcement officials are scrutinizing you with suspicion – which is why you handle your business in the most straightforward & upright manner possible. Now, however, Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 make you notice how law enforcement scrutinizes some of your friends & partners. Find out why. Find out why friends & partners do or do not react. Do not put yourself in the position of attracting heat as the result of somebody else’s reputation or behavior.  

SAGITTARIUS – Socialize with colleagues & fellow employees from work, only at work. Unexpected outrageous behavior at work makes the day go faster, but Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 warn unexpected outrageous behavior with those whom you work outside the well-defined confines of your job can get you into legal trouble that can make you, your colleagues & the company for whom you work(ed) . . . look very bad. Keep the fort mentality within the fort.  

CAPRICORN – Artists, writers: What does one mean when one asks you, “Can you afford to take creative risks?” Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 explicate that, for practical purposes, it can mean one of two things. First, a fellow artist or writer might say, “Can you afford for that particular work of art to fail?” you can be rest assured that nobody is referring to money. However, second, if an accountant asks, “Will that work of art hurt your reputation?” that accountant is referring to your market value. Don’t confuse one with the other. Realize the true end game of those asking questions.  

AQUARIUS – True friends & partners would never take any risks in public that would threaten your reputation, financial safety or the security of your family within their home. Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 declare that you know who these true friends & partners are & that you can have fun with them – whether the devil decides to show up at the party or not.  

PISCES – Gym rats: Discuss the quality of personal trainers & their fees. Uranus, 1996-TR66 & 2002-VR130 declare that the personal trainers that you know are personal trainers afforded by clients within your own income bracket – and you are not the only one in the gym who has noticed which trainers have been doing what with which clients. Share information. Determine if any of these personal trainers is worth hiring – and if you will get better value hiring them to train you within the gym or within their much more pricey private studio.

Albion< conjunct3 1996-TR66> in Taurus
from June 26 to September 28, 2020.

The party line from management dictates that everybody on the team is working towards the same goal, but this is rarely the case. Some rookies just starting with the company as a result of that company’s loyalty to specific academic institutions all hail from the same fraternity. Certain athletes sick of playing on a loser pad their numbers at the expense of the losing franchise, disobeying direct orders of managers, coaches & owners, to get themselves traded to a potential championship winner before the trading deadline – ideally, to the team where one’s best friend from (the neighborhood) (high school) (rookie year) now makes a killing on endorsement deals. The co-star of the film dislikes the producer, director & script but fawns all over the A-list star who picks & chooses future colleagues while spinning their wheels on these worthless B-list projects. One particularly large corporate client provides so much business to one specific law firm that the entire intellectual property litigation team uproots from its employer to form its own firm.

Overall, when some public relations director asserts that everybody on the team serves a niche function in pursuit of the same goals, realize that such a proclamation may be a mandate based upon willfully wishful thinking rather than a reality.

The reality?

For employees: In cases both benign & nefarious, not only do the loyalties of many employees on “the team” fail to bear any relationship to their current official affiliation whatsoever, in some situations, truly brazen “loose cannons” assert exactly why they do what they do to communicate to those who are on one’s official team but not on one’s unofficial team, “Cross my self-interest at your personal peril . . . sucker.”

For managers: Managers either want employees on their team or they don’t. In cases where they do not want certain employees on their team, managers give those employees a chance to shine in situations which do not mean anything so that they will attract the offers of other employers until such managers get rid of them. In cases where they do want certain employees on their team, managers may take such employees directly under their wing, in the manner of a mentor training an apprentice . . . or in the manner of an eagle willing to kill the predators of baby birds in the nest.  

ARIES – Disturbingly, 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 notice a correlation with how animated certain peers act with all of your peers & teammates & how secretly but aggressively they promote their own interests against those peers. It is almost as if these animated peers seek to sink the ship once they jump it – except, more likely, nobody is on a ship. Remain alert. Determine if & how you can lose money as the result of the dynamic of this extremely strategic deceit. Monitor the direct actions & explicit policy, as well as the unspoken attitudes, of management. Once this analysis is complete, communicate to these animated & possibly organized peers that you plan to protect your own interests against anybody who threatens them.  

TAURUS – Instruct family members not to affiliate with sworn family enemies under threat of punishment. Furthermore, while there is no way to predict what wayward family members may do, 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 demand that you fulfill your duties in such a way where no family member will be able to predict what you yourself will do.. Announce to all family members that their actions & affiliations are not without consequences.  

GEMINI – Through some random & mundane verbal interchange, you learn that one of your very new best friends is related to, or knows, one of your work colleagues very well. As a result, 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 instruct you to expect not only aggressive & unexpected political maneuvers against you personally & professionally, but that other people both within & outside of the workplace will treat you extremely differently. Try to connect the dots – what are these new hidden adversaries trying to protect by alienating you?  

CANCER – New relationship? Be careful how you spend your money on, or in the presence of, this new sweetheart – as well as in the presence of this new sweetheart’s “friends.” Of course, what you choose to do with your own money is your own business – but 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 denote that your associates will now question you about what you choose to do with your own money – and with whom you choose to spend your time. Worse yet, such associates may choose to judge you without talking with you at all – and to act rather coldly & indifferently towards you on a personal level. Think beyond romance & sex – and what you must do in order to get some. Consider your reputation within your current matrix of professional politics.  

LEO – You take pains not to discuss with not only bosses, but in fact groups of friends whom you try to impress, those members of your family who not only do not share, but who actually oppose, your ways. This is wise – 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 state that, even though both bosses & you already know that some of your friends know these family members very well already . . . your bosses don’t want to hear anything about them at all. Continue to make your own political adjustments so that bosses will never need to do so at all.  

VIRGO – Word filters down from bureaucratic & institutional enemies that they oppose & hate you through third & fourth party proxies. While 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 strongly advise you to say absolutely nothing, let these bureaucratic & institutional enemies say & do whatever they want. However, once they cross the line & violate your interests, take immediate & aggressive legal action against them.  

LIBRA – Read Scorpio. You exude dark glamour to associates & clients alike because of your nitty gritty, gumshoe, law enforcement, borderline criminal, Rockford File personal & professional connections. 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 recommend that you inform such glamour struck associates that these connections are strictly as a result of your work – and not as a seedy extracurricular activity. Don’t be humorless about your persona – really, you have made yourself quite a unique character. Assert, “Judge me by what I do & not by how I appear.” However, communicate, unerringly, that others . . .. keep their distance.  

SCORPIO – Read Libra. 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 bluntly agree that law enforcement officials resent you either because of the company you keep, because of “friends” who “drop your name” or because of enemies who spread plausible, but not necessarily true, rumors about you. You have a lot of property, assets & money to protect. Therefore, jettison acquaintances posing as friends by treating them impersonally, or, better yet, by forgetting their names as you talk to them face to face. Address all rumors & set the record straight. Clean house – and ban any & everybody who makes that house “dirty.”.  

SAGITTARIUS – Excursions into vice become legally & perhaps fatally treacherous under the current influence of 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66. Decline all “social invitations” with the alibi, “I have to do overtime at my job.” It will be far easier to restrain your acute cravings if none of your friends are present, so that you will not need to, at that moment when circumstances become obviously & acutely dangerous, say, “No way.” For extra security, let all phone calls go into voicemail. Count those paperclips!  

CAPRICORN – Creditors begin to accumulate in the pursuit of those old money bluebloods & former financial gods of an untouchable pantheon as those in the process of falling from the heights commence to declare bankruptcy. 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 therefore demand that you change your priorities: Get in line & get your money. Scan the financial markets for financially distressed & unjustly undervalued stocks. If a long-time associate asks you for a loan, consider, at length, how this long-term associate handles their cash – and, unless you know that they have the ability to save absolutely every penny as close to the bone as possible, deny them. Institute an austerity lifestyle so as to accumulate savings & to live free even of ongoing debt.  

AQUARIUS – Both declared & open rivals, and those who act like your friends but actively seek to corrupt your agenda, affiliate or do not affiliate with power brokers who intensely dislike, and attempt to limit, your freedom. You would know how to respond if anything before you was transparent & clear – but 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 qualify that you don’t need to respond. As long as you think, act & speak as pure as the driven snow, the difference between you & the self-evidently muddy waters of all that oppose you will be obvious to all. You will be able to lock your door & to post the sign outside of the door of your apartment or house – PRIVATE PROPERTY: NO TRESPASSING – anytime that you feel it is necessary or desirable. Be as nice as you want to be. Purity of intent!  

PISCES – Gym rats: You know what effort you had to make for how long in order to get the results that you now embody. Employees: You know what you had to do to earn the money, property & luxuries you now enjoy. Now so as to protect yourself as steroids make a comeback, and to zero in on one of your professional peers who has just begun to sell coke or weed on the down low, 2002-VR130, 2002-CR46, Uranus, Albion & 1996-TR66 suggest that you “exchange ideas” with those whose progress seems far too accelerated to be genuine. Don’t compete – simply find out if others are giving you a cover story. If it smells bad, excuse yourself, hold your nose & walk away – then, thereafter, completely disassociate. Don’t tolerate “shadows   

@ 2002-VR130 is an unnamed centaur planet discovered on November 7, 2002. The orbit of 2002-VR130 commences beyond the orbit of Saturn as it crosses over the orbit of Uranus & Neptune.

* 2002-CR46, officially named “Typhon”, is a transneptunian object (TNO) discovered on February 2, 2002. The orbit of 2002-CR46 traverses between the orbit of Uranus out past the orbit of Pluto.

< Albion is the first “cubewano” or low-eccentricity transneptunian object (TNO) (named after its provisional designation 1992-QB1), located more than halfway between the orbits of Neptune and Pluto at aphelion discovered on August 30, 1992. Albion (which is also the ancient Greek name for the island of Great Britain) is named after the son of Poseidon, who, along with his brother Dercynus or Bergion, died during their attack upon Hercules as he passed through Albion’s homeland of Liguria.
