I just couldn’t get all caught up in the hoopla. I just couldn’t.
I did write some about Mars, Uranus, and Pluto in a t-square and the Cancer Moon joining the mix to make it a Grand Cross but my heart isn’t in it today, as well as the thought that every summer or every so often there’s some configuration and people freak-out.
Now of course with such a sky, caution is necessary. These are “accident” aspects (Mars, Uranus, Pluto mixed up together) but for me what matters most is if you have planets at those degrees. What we do, as astrologers, is match up the transits to one’s own birth chart.
Now sometimes I have felt “sky energy” and I do write from the perspective of “sky energy.” It is standard to do so. But I refuse to get on the OH NO train of this cardinal transit.
Do I sound crabby? The Moon is in Cancer 😉

I have a Cardinal T-square in my chart at these degrees, so anytime something saunters into Cancer and makes a Grand Cross I’m just happy, not freaked out. Happy someone brought the bonbons, lol!!
funny 🙂
I spent my morning cooking, and in the garden dealing with vegetables that I’m growing, as well as putting things out for the wild animals (like water). I hadn’t even thought about it re: the Moon in Cancer. I just felt good and busy.
I took a nap, and slept on and off for six hours. I actually wish that I hadn’t, because I’d just got my clock around the right way, and was enjoying being up so early and productive all morning. Fatigue hit me around 11:30am, and I was out of it at gone 12pm. I had to hold my tongue tonight, and am just hoping that if I drink some chamomile, I’ll drift off, sleep well, and still be able to get up early.
I have asc/desc/mc/ic at 4 degrees cardinal signs. I stayed home, napped a lot and had not an ounce of problems. When the moon was on my NN, my MIL came for a lovely visit. Then I had a meatloaf sammich and a glass of milk and napped.
we had a couple temper flare-ups today in my house. and I saw some busy/dangerous traffic jams along with several other jumbled car-related masses. It being 100 degrees here in Chicago doesn’t help much either, but yeah, it feels intense or something. And the pie crust I tried to make was a failure, which has never happened before. haha
🙁 mourning the loss of the pie crust. I feel your pain with that one!
I’m not sure which degrees are involved but I had a nuclear temper tantrum this morning. Normally, I don’t struggle with controlling my anger. Mars in Leo can be a handful, they say, but I experience it more as impressive self control. Unless I don’t… Now I feel tired & defeated & so disappointed in myself. It’s true that my boss is incompetent and it was long overdue but I’ve spent months trying to be sensitive to the possibility that he may have personal problems and he must’ve exceeded my abilities today. Or he triggered something. Whatever the case, I don’t have much respect for people who let their emotions get the best of them. I fervently hope this isn’t a preview of Saturn transiting the 10th.
I am about to submit to agreeing that it has been weird energy today. And I say that as someone who has been inside most of the day. 6/7/8/9 degrees at least of cardinal signs… prob pulling in your Cancer planets!
and yes temper flare-ups being the most common things to watch out for under such a configuration
Oh yes. It’s all coming back to me now 😉 My sun, cancer stellium, Pluto in libra and asc are involved. And the moon in cancer is uncomfortably sensitizing. For some reason, I didn’t get the 40 things post, which was even helpful after the fact. Nothing is surprising today xo
Dang I wonder why you didn’t get that one. It was just me having fun 🙂
