With the waxing Moon past the 1st quarter crisis, we see not only monstrous storms producing devastating havoc, but a US Supreme Court nominee, who was almost certain to be confirmed, suddenly has his appointment in question. The Full Moon on the 25th opposes the Sun in Libra (Balance) and the Moon in Aries (initiation). The Moon moves through the universal signs of Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces and into the most personal sign, Aries. The Full Moon is the apex or the culmination of cycle, and brings about results. The destruction wrought becomes clear, its cost of life and property assigned. We are likely also to see the end of the investigation with results made clear with a Congressional vote. The Sun ingress to Libra -the Fall Equinox- is on the 23rd of September (GMT) and the afternoon of the 22nd in the US. In Libra, the judgement must be balanced to satisfy the Cardinal – Air sign motif. If off-balance, there is a continuous redress for seeking a balance. This nomination becomes very questionable. The lunar transit of Saturn in Capricorn on the 17th indicates a stalling of procedure, while the transit of Pluto (18th-19th of September) could initiate the upheaval and rejection of the nominee, questioning his fitness for the high court. Leaders in other nations may also be affected, essentially facing harsh criticism or a downturn of support. Transformation (Pluto) is underway to affect the governing offices (Capricorn).

Wednesday September 19th – The Moon in Capricorn today is in a trine aspect (120 deg, flowing) to the Sun and Mercury in Virgo.

Combining) to Mars before the day’s end. Mars and Uranus are activated by the Moon. A demand for change (Mars–Moon) and reversals (Uranus) is prevalent.
