for the week beginning 25 April 2010"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>One effect of the Mercury retrograde last week was the panic of the British newspaper presses (Mercury) after the surge in popularity of Nick Clegg.\u00a0 Having vested interests one way or the other (Conservative or Labour) it was unthinkable to them that the Lib Dems might be in the running, or that there might be a hung parliament.\u00a0 They then set out to discredit the Lib Dems and their leader Nick Clegg with outraged headlines easily obtained from the smear campaigns of the Labour and Conservative factions.\u00a0 They must redress the imbalance!\u00a0 Meanwhile it is clear that the British public are not at all worried by the idea of a hung parliament, and may even be warming to the idea.\u00a0 However, Nick Clegg was not able to uphold the huge surge and his popularity has slid back a little, so much so that the leaders are now running almost neck and neck.\u00a0 This is the state of play as the 4<sup>th<\/sup> Saturn-Uranus opposition kicks in tomorrow (Monday 26<sup>th<\/sup>), the most important astrological feature of this week.\u00a0 Meanwhile today Venus enters Gemini: perfect for slick and smooth-talking politicians on doorsteps or in the hustings halls.\u00a0 But as Venus does so, she runs into a square with Chiron, so politicians may express themselves, but find that they manage to offend others even where they hope to impress.\u00a0 The weaknesses in their arguments may be exposed: for instance a policy purporting to promote a fairer society seems to detract from the poorer element.\u00a0 In your own life you may be forced to see where in trying to be sensitive to one person, you may be insensitive to another.\u00a0 This is compounded by Mercury squaring Mars which may force words out of your mouth before they have been duly thought through: a politician may quip about another politician, but throw more light on his own character.\u00a0 Generally this could be a clutsy day, no matter how well-intended, certainly up to a point.\u00a0 For a trine between the Sun and Pluto takes over later in the day, which has more clout, and can pull together the threads of people\u2019s sensitivities and enable a larger psychological picture come into view.\u00a0 Tomorrow is the 4<sup>th<\/sup> pass of the Saturn-Uranus opposition.\u00a0 I have selected a blog record of the story so far, and also separately blogged about this 4<sup>th<\/sup> phase.\u00a0 Suffice it to say that consciousness will be stretched tomorrow, and the 4<sup>th<\/sup> phase of dismantling and regeneration is occurring, hopefully by now the balance tipping towards regeneration projects.\u00a0 On the last Saturn-Uranus opposition a friend of mine launched a knitting circle, which is flourishing and benefitting the community, so if things are done in accordance with the principles of the opposition and nature of the planets concerned, you can meet with success.\u00a0 The adjustments required for changes occurring tomorrow may add to tensions building to the Full Moon in Scorpio on Wednesday (28<sup>th<\/sup>).\u00a0 You may feel slightly uncomfortable on Tuesday without necessarily being able to put your finger on why.\u00a0 The Full Moon in Scorpio requires you to be fully present to your emotions and their effect on others.\u00a0 If someone doesn\u2019t deserve to be stung, process your resentments on your own.\u00a0 If forgiveness needs to be involved the excellent book \u201cRadical Forgiveness\u201d by Colin Tipping can have an airing from your bookshelf, or a download from Amazon.\u00a0 Later the same day, Mercury joins forces with the Sun (and versus the Moon) in Taurus, and a practical plan can be hatched in the mind for the benefit of the body and soul.\u00a0 As with the Sun trine Pluto today, everything needs to be brought to wholeness from psychological anarchy.\u00a0 That means British voters need to make up their minds!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One effect of the Mercury retrograde last week was the panic of the British newspaper presses (Mercury) after the surge in popularity of
