Daily Cosmic Calendar

Of course, it would be nice to report that the recent cosmic turmoil of the past 10 days is over and the celebrating can begin. However, much of last night's belligerent behavior by outlaw-acting celestial bodies remains in effect and now the red planet is returning to the fray in order to provoke everyone one more time. It was Mars entering Libra on Thursday July 29 that really stacked the deck against humanity and started this recent series of intense alignments as the often volatile red planet opposed Uranus on July 30, joined forces with Saturn on July 31, and now Mars opposes Jupiter (9:21PM PDT) while also squaring Pluto (9:59PM PDT). Before these two rather disturbing alignments take hold this evening, you can utilize the practical side of Taurus Moon to shore up your entrepreneurial escapades and business affairs. Take a long, soulful walk on a favorite nature trail and really commune with the birds, trees and sky. Get back into fitness routines with renewed vigor and determination to get back in shape. The evening hours are not too inviting since just a Mars-Jupiter opposition - without the accompanying square by Mars to Pluto - can set off many unwarranted chain-reactions of the negative kind. Pushing your personal agenda at all cost is a supreme no-no. Being rash and egocentric won't win you rave reviews with family members and friends. The key is to tone down all rhetoric and surround yourself with a cloak of true serenity. Don't raise your voice in criticism or anger when you can take action to right a wrong or lift another person's spirits. Like last night and many other time-periods during the past 10 days or so, keep your John Hancock off legal documents and long-term commitments.
