Among the behaviors that are making mid-March memorable is the possible angular "conjunction" of Hidalgo, Admete and Pluto. This will manifest as people sticking to their guns with not saying all that's true, and what makes it especially interesting is that there are complex motives behind the careful and monitored disclosure. So if you sense that someone isn't telling "the whole truth," trust your feeling! They are being Plutonian! And in order to mess with you, advance their own agenda, or try to stay in a dominant position, there are just things they aren't willing to disclose. Some circumspection now is intentional and designed to manipulate! Other things that make this time period interesting (other than the eclipse:)
- Of course the Hades-Kronos continues to show up on some of our return chart angles, and that means that we see incompetence, secrecy, or mistakes from those in leadership positions. We may also note a certain "vulgarity" or crass trends in our celebrities. We will also notice investigations of those in governmental positions or hear a great deal about criminal legal cases and laws that aren't working out so well.
- Right now, Pythia is conjunct Kronos and one of the ways that will manifest is that leaders or experts make faulty assumptions about the future prospects of their endeavors. Too, experts can simply be mistaken about how things are going to turn out. Suffice to say, if this conjunction is angular on your current returns, expectations will be mistaken or will be misinterpreting the meaning and consequences of a situation. What's especially cool is that Kassandra is in opposition to this conjunction, so there's a lot of doubt about the advice and words of experts or officials.
- Speaking of Kassandra, it's conjunct Memoria; so that'll bring up times when there's some doubt about what is remembered.
- These days, we have a Uranus-Mars conjunction. That's great for team sports, activities with friends, trying new things, and a lot of activity on your technological gadgets. Still, if the conjunction is crashing into your chart, be mindful of accident potential and reckless impulses. Do try new things, but know that you may observe anger dressed as indifference and people who have to keep busy in order to continually proclaim their independence.
- A mid-Taurus angle now will bring up the Pandora-Ophelia conjunction and one of the ways this will show up is that a person has an inappropriate reaction to a situation that catches them off-guard or carries unexpected consequences. Given the parans opposition of the medical asteroid, Podalarius, and both Melpomene and Lilith, if this is up in your chart now, these over or under reactions are gonna' be associated with medical issues, tragedies and decisions. In other words, a person can be hyper-reactive (or seem to have almost no reaction--which wouldn't be realistic) to a diagnosis, to a decision, to a rejection, or to a tragic situation.
- If your chart is picking up the Atlantis-Lilith now, you can have access to information that was supposed to be private-- but that contains evidence of criticism or rejection. In other words, you weren't supposed to know or hear a criticism or a preference...that isn't you! Expect other examples where there are choices about what is confidential or personal... and then use the parans opposition of Admetus to see that the information was held, contained, restricted.
- As Mercury heads into a conjunction with Neptune (in PISCES!!!!) of course you'll see plenty of "magical thinking" along with examples of dishonest words, words intended to deceive, and conversations that don't lead to actions. On the plus side, some ideas are intuitive and some thoughts come almost by osmosis!
- In late Libra these days, there's a conjunction of Kalypso and Odysseus--both retrograde. The retro condition implies a reference to past actions, but it's still about things that are hidden regarding travels, travelers or immigrants. So someone may use Kalypso to hide the fact that they're (Odysseus) a stranger and "not from here." Immigration issues can be hidden. Remember that you can be in the hometown where you grew up and still feel like (Odysseus) a stranger who doesn't quite belong. And the Kalypso means that you try to conceal the fact that you're "not really from here"-- that you identify more with your Journey than the place.
- Among the parans oppositions now is the configuration of Mercury-Neptune\Valentine and that can show up as such things as respiratory problems with cardiac symptoms and as imagination and fantasy that includes a sexual reference.
- Mid-month, we have a retrograde conjunction of Aesculapia and Panacea and part of how that will manifest is through a concentration on treatments and "cures" for medical conditions. Because of the retrograde condition, this may refer to a pre-existing health problem. The retrograde Panacea may point to treatments that didn't work or were tried in the past. Remember that this conjunction is in parans opposition to the Mercury-Neptune, so there's an implication that one's thoughts and possible sense of victimization or frailty are relevant to what is believed about medical treatments now.
Of course you have to allow these transiting configurations to interact with your radix points in order to fill in the rest of the story. And, as always, there is more to say about each of these story lines, and there is a lot more going on (even aside from the 29 Pisces eclipse.)
