Pretend Politix
How appropriate it is that, just as Neptune (pretense) conjoins Chiron (wounds) for their last hit on America’s Moon in Aquarius, it’s election time in the USA.
Negative Neptune manifests as addiction, self-delusion and the passive acceptance of unhealthy situations, which the shrinks have delicately termed enabling. I propose that we all take a pledge not to enable this November.
Specifically, I mean that we disabuse ourselves of the fantasy that the Democrats will or can save us from the Republicans. Generally, I mean that we stop pretending that the grotesque games played by the two major parties reflect anything real.

When Loss is Gain
The Cardinal Climax is giving us a breather as we move into October, offering us a chance to stand back and take stock.
Uranus and Jupiter have retrograded into Pisces, easing off the fiery intensity of the Aries Point. Saturn is moving forward in Libra, past the relentless exactitudes of its square to Pluto and opposition to Uranus. Pluto is still (again) hanging out at the first couple degrees of Capricorn, biding its time.
