Summary of major and minor aspects of the week

Wednesday September 25thMercury, in addition to being part of a grand-trine configuration is in partile opposition aspect to Neptune retro in Pisces. Neptune retro is sextile aspect to Pluto retro in Capricorn and sextile aspect to Uranus retro in Taurus, so the trine aspect between Uranus retro and Pluto retro remains solid. Some astrologers have named this a minor grand-trine configuration or a talent triangle. In the case of the current configuration, that has been present over several months and consists of the trans-Saturn planets, it is a dormant situation that persists with little change or power to provoke change. It is an underlying constant of the era. There is now a window of opportunity, a view into the workings of the intractable forces that are holding us into a situation that has been stagnant. Mercury in Virgo opposition aspect to Neptune, not-withstanding, you can reject the significance of the deep forces to affect your life. You continue enjoying, working, spending, enjoying, and living as usual, without a need to heed to the existence of the “situation.” Yet, by neglecting the relevance to your life you could be inviting disaster in the future. The “situation” begins to drain the very substance you depend on in your life. Or, you could begin to understand the significance of this basic motivating force. So you begin to pay attention, not really understanding the elements and cause of situation, you could take the side of one or another.  An abundance of information is now available.
