I don’t swear myself, except when I am quoting someone, so was suitably shocked when David Cameron tried to rough up his Libran reputation this week by using the word “twat” in relation to Twitter.\u00a0 His exact words were (and I am only quoting) “The trouble with Twitter, the instantness of it – too many twits might make a twat.”\u00a0 It is not yet known what effect this will have on his political career, but he was later forced to apologise.\u00a0 He is under heavy pressure at the moment, with Pluto squaring his Ascendant and transiting Saturn conjunct his Pluto.\u00a0 But these are more long-term transits and the short-term trigger may have been the Sun transiting his Moon, unleashing his true feelings about Twitter.\u00a0 The opposition of Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron to Mercury last week may have prompted him to be a little more adventurous in his use of language.\u00a0 In his own relationship with Twitter, you find Twitter’s Saturn irksomely squaring exactly his Mercury.\u00a0 Is Twitter bothered?\u00a0 Well Twitter is in a bit of bother at the moment as Pluto is exactly squaring its Sun and Uranus exactly squaring its Pluto, but the skirmish with David Cameron is more likely a symptom rather than a cause of its current discomfort.\u00a0 Today, Mercury moves into Virgo, one of its own signs.\u00a0 This happens at 23.07 Hrs in the U.K., tea-time in the U.S., and Monday morning breakfast in Australia.\u00a0 It is a good time to take stock in matters of health and working conditions, and to examine small print.\u00a0 Before you sleep tonight in the U.K. would be a good time to do your Louise L. Hay affirmation.\u00a0 Power thought number 213 in her book of 365 Daily Affirmations is: “I listen with love to my body’s messages.\u00a0 My body is the picture of total health.”\u00a0\u00a0 In the U.S. choose organic healthy ingredients for your tea or supper.\u00a0 I know it has been “proved” this week that organic foods are no healthier than toxic pesticide-ridden foods, but cognitive dissonance tells me to keep choosing organic.\u00a0 And the same goes for Australian breakfasts, keep spreading the organic Vegemite.\u00a0 All this setting of standards at the beginning of the week is important, and your efforts will be rewarded tomorrow (Monday 3rd, the same day for Aussies) when Mercury trines Pluto.\u00a0 You will receive some validation of your instincts around the subject of food and diet, or some important information.\u00a0 On to the eclipse of Thursday (6th), the third of this summer’s series of eclipses.\u00a0 My attention was first alerted to the importance of eclipses in 1992 when the eclipses featured strongly in the charts of Prince Charles and the Princess of Wales, and they separated.\u00a0 The following year Judy Hall published “Astrology of a Prophet?” which is entirely about the effects of eclipses in the rise and fall of David Icke up to that time.\u00a0 Whilst I am an enemy of superstition, and in my heart subscribe to the idea of eclipses being outmoded and harmless, two of the eclipses of the last year have been momentous within my family horoscope: in health matters, and in bringing about a change of lifestyle, and both necessitating a surrender to what is.\u00a0 In fact, there is an air of Super Nanny Universe Knows Best about the events they bring.\u00a0 So I have a healthy respect for eclipses, while trying to maintain calm and equanimity!\u00a0 Thursday’s Penumbral Lunar Eclipse takes place at 00.55 Hrs in the U.K. at 13 degrees Aquarius.\u00a0 The effect is felt most strongly if you have a planet or angle of your chart close to that point or in aspect to it.\u00a0 So moving on to the completion of the week on Saturday (8th) we have a nice sedate Mercury sextile Venus, good for creative writing and tete-a-tetes, twittering if you will…Play it again, David?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
