Yes, the New Year officially begins moving ahead Today as Mercury Turns Direct. Woo hoo. Here’s what else is happening. Three major inconjuncts or quincux’s.
Taurus moon inconjuncts { 150 degrees} to Jupiter in Libra
Practical reality versus double talk spun in the news these days.
Taurus moon inconjuncts Saturn in Sagittarius
Another way of seeing the same issue as the first inconjunct. There is no way to fudge the truth. Those in high places should not delve into places they don’t. Belong. This is politics and basic common sense not aligning.
Mercury turns Direct @ 1:43 am PST/ 4:43 am EST / 9:43 am GMT.
Things will begin to move forwards but it will actually take until Mercury passes its Retro degree of 15+ Capricorn on Jan. 28th. Still putt, putt ahead.
Taurus moon inconjuncts Mercury in Sagittarius
Speak the plain simple truth if you want to be understood and communicate your message. No obfuscation necessary.
Moon enters GEMINI in the afternoon which lighten the mood up/ Our minds will spring into full throttle now.
Next week is A BIG week, A GRAND CARDINAL CROSS FULL MOON
FAMOUS CAPRICORN BIRTHDAYS JAN 8
DAVID BOWIE- would have been 70 ELVIS PRESLEY STEPHEN HAWKING turns 74,
ELVIS PRESLEY-would have been 82.
I had never thought of looking up the two stars astrology charts together until now.
The two famed musical stars had a lot in common besides just being born on the same day. Both Elvis and Bowie were born with Mercury moving Out-of-Bounds. This means that they both thunk outside the box, in very freewheeling ways. BOWIE was also born with the Moon Out-of-Bounds making him an even freer spirit emotionally and karmically. He lived his life through his own definitions.
Bowie and Elvis both had personal planets conjunct to their Suns.
BOWIE had his Sun conjunct MARS in his Natal 12th house indicating a deep passionate masculine drive and unconscious desire to channel through those depths. ELVIS has the SUN conjunct MERCURY in his natal 2nd house of values. He had something he wanted to communicate. Bowie and Elvis would have communicated terrifically together.
Both ELVIS and BOWIE had their natal Jupiter’s in very sexy SCORPIO almost conjunct to each other. Elvis was born 12 years before BOWIE. A hunka burnin’ love indeed.
More interesting parallels. They were both born with SATURN conjunct the MOON, while this is a fairly common occurrence,it indicates that both these men had karmic dates with destiny. Both were karmically connected to their mothers, their instincts, feelings, imagination, and past lives. Saturn conjunct Moon indicates difficulty at their birth or a rather harsh poor childhood. They were very tied to their own Feminine side in a way that may have been difficult for them to express. BOWIE also had PLUTO with Saturn Moon in LEO on his Descendant. These planets helped him to express his feminine side in a very creative powerful way.
For ELVIS Saturn Moon are together in AQUARIUS, the sign of radical change makers with Moon at last difficult degree of Aquarius in his natal 3rd house of communications and siblings. Elvis had a twin who was stillborn at his birth who was was his permanent ghost companion.
They both had their natal MARS and NEPTUNE, planet of inspiration, drugs, illusions, spirituality and creativity conjunct to each other in LIBRA. Bowie has NEPTUNE in LIBRA in his 8th house of sexuality, relationships, money, soul work, power, control. ELVIS has MARS in LIBRA in his 10th house of worldly fame. Elvis’s raw primal masculine sexuality was what made him famous in the 50’s. Elvis became famous for shaking his hips. What was Elvis Ascendant? SAGITTARIUS at 12 degrees. Exactly the same as the United States. No wonder he became so popular. Sagittarius rules the hips, governed by planet JUPITER, which we know Elvis {and Bowie} both had in very sexy magnetic SCORPIO. These guys just oozed sexual charisma.
ELVIS’s SOUTH NODE, his past lives was in LEO very close to BOWIE’s MOON and Descendant. ELVIS’ NORTH NODE is in AQUARIUS conjunct VENUS and JUNO at the last degree of CAPRICORN right on BOWIE’S ASCENDANT . It’s almost as if Bowie picked up the mantle where Elvis left off and sold out, many years later and on that higher AQUARIAN space man, Space Oddity, Hermaphrodite, UNISEX, level.
BOWIE’S SOUTH NODE is in SAGITTARIUS conjunct to JUNO, exactly on ELVIS’s ASCENDANT and the U.S. Ascendant in the Sibley chart. DAVID unconsciously picked up ELVIS’s cloak and channeled it into his NORTH NODE in GEMINI playing off the sexual ambiguity which made him famous. Gemini North Node is eternally young and curious, always changing, morphing and great at communicating. BOWIE’s N.N. is conjunct URANUS in his 4th house of self, his home. He was a very private and unique man in a different way than the one the world saw.
A very fascinating look. These two had so much in common. They would have made great collaborators. I find it fascinating that BLACK STAR song which ELVIS recorded in his early career which was later named FLAMING STAR. Bowie’s last album used the same name. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
