The dynamic events may be outer, or they may be inner, but in both cases there’s a lot going on right now that is propelling a future-in-the-making! As we approach the Harvest Full Moon in Aries, we now enter an intense few days of Sun in Libra driving a Cardinal T-square with the incredibly frictional Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn.
I already gave you some information about this T-square of the opposition of Libra to Aries at odds with Pluto in Capricorn in the article Astrology in late September 2012 - Mercury in a Cardinal T-Square Today! I go into much more detail about this Solar T-square, and offer you suggestions about how to use the energies to maximum good, in the recent article It's the Autumnal Equinox 2012 - What's Coming in October, November, and December 2012.
Please revisit the Equinox article in any case, since the reason we need to learn the on-going lessons connected with this T-square were explained in that article. Briefly, due to the constant Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn, when any planet transits through Cancer, it makes a T-square throwing the void into Libra, and every time any planet transits Libra, it makes a T-square throwing the void into Cancer.
That makes the period from June through October pretty volatile, in terms of lessons to be learned, awareness to be cultivated, and powers to be demonstrated. When things went through Cancer this past Summer, we had to show positive Libra traits and skills. Now that things are going through Libra, we have to show positive Cancer traits and skills.
So in some way the recent Mercury in Libra T-square that heralded this Sun in Libra T-square is related to what was explored and illuminated this past Summer, and the skills and awareness we acquired or demonstrated this past Summer are exactly what can be understood and incorporated into our lives at present. It would seem that over these past 4 months, we’ve learned a new rhythm, perspective, or sense of proportion, as well as gotten focused on home, family, needs, supply, what we truly care about, and a sense of daily well-being that nurtures us.
As the exact Solar opposition to Uranus and square to Pluto occur almost at the same time, immediately followed by the Moon in Aries conjunct Uranus, square Pluto, and then becomes exactly Full at the opposition to the Sun, we can expect the next three days to exemplify and intensify what the coming Full Moon is about. I’ll be composing part 2 as soon as I can, but since this T-square is coming before the Full Moon, I figured I’d give you a heads up!
Briefly, this T-square challenges us to be confident, self-sufficient, focused, and self-disciplined. It will make many very high strung, and forces us to acknowledge our genius, special qualities, not be too eccentric or erratic, and discover what we value that life will recognize and reward. This is a time of no excuses! Rise to some unusual or specialized situation, develop your social intuition, and be wholehearted in pursuing the goals that truly appeal to you!
You can find out more about the degree spans most affected by the coming Full Moon in the linked article to the Autumnal Equinox, as well as yesterday’s Full Moon part 1 article. The Sabian symbols activated by this T-square are different, since the Full Moon falls at 8 degrees of Aries-Libra, while the T-square is triggered at 7 Libra, throwing the void into 7 Cancer.
Briefly, this T-square configures with the “new law” symbolized by Pluto on its stationary degree of 7 Capricorn, as well as the awakened ability for us to live life on multiple levels simultaneously and find fulfillment and even happiness on all levels. The Sun at 7 Libra illuminates what we must protect, what must be uplifted, what must be tamed, and what we are to take responsibility for in the way of being a good guardian.
This creates the void at 7 Cancer. The void of a T-square shows either the problem, the solution, the need, or what must be introduced to resolve the frictional tension. 7 Cancer is a degree of “unusual good luck” if we learn to cooperate with our invisible helpers.
Use your creative imagination to learn to see, hear, or feel the helping energies that exist on subtle levels. Call them angels, call them Nature Spirits, call them “telluric manifestations of Nature,” there are many subtle levels where invisible helpers can be found. This is the time to invoke them, cooperate with them, trust them while still following through on what is needed or cared for.
There is only ONE LIFE. We are all part of that ONE LIFE. There are visible and invisible components alive within that ONE LIFE. The more we experience ourselves as units of sentient Loving Light/Life within the Greater Light/Life, the easier it is to position our consciousness to remember that though we are erect bipeds with a bihemispheric brain and physical life system set, we are also never apart from all that supports and sustains us, nor are we ever separate from All-That-Is.
Accept the “unusual good luck” that is yours for the making and taking by seeing how to cooperate with your invisible helpers, and you could just find exactly what you need and care for between now and Monday! It’s called the “Harvest Moon” for a reason, you know….;-)

ps - As an aside, it is said that because of astronomical reasons, the Harvest Full Moon is larger than other Full Moons when it first makes its appearance in the Eastern sky at sunset. So by all means, check out the Eastern sky at sunset wherever you are, since it’s supposedly a once a year experience to see it that big!
I awoke to see a facebook post from my son that read "off to Hawaii". News to me!! I have been worried about this full moon in my natal fifth house but now I have a permagrin on my face!! He is 27 yrs old, found a great job on the West coast a year ago, and is making many dreams come true (for both of us)!

Thank you thank you thank you, Robert! I feel grateful to you for speaking the Ancient Wisdom with such clarity. I really needed this timely reminder today--it made all the difference:
"There is only ONE LIFE. We are all part of that ONE LIFE. There are visible and invisible components alive within that ONE LIFE. The more we experience ourselves as units of sentient Loving Light/Life within the Greater Light/Life, the easier it is to position our consciousness to remember that though we are erect bipeds with a bihemispheric brain and physical life system set, we are also never apart from all that supports and sustains us, nor are we ever separate from All-That-Is."
Sometimes we just really need to hear what we know.

And thank you again :)
Brilliant analysis for my next solar year.
I've learned so much from Saturn in Libra, these 3 years had been best I lived until now. Somehow the decision and knowing that I don't have time (Saturn) to waste, and "it's now or never" philosophy turned my life to discipline and joy.
Finally symbolic archetype is clear to me. Saturn is carbon, but in Libra it is under maximum pressure that it turns into diamond.
People are afraid of Saturn in Scorpio. But I think it can be a mud in the pipe or it can be solid rock to stand upon and breathe above the river of transformation. So, let's make the next year a year to remember :)
Thank you for your lessons and wise advices.

A little story re 'Nature Spirits'... A Soul sister of mine now resides on the other side of the globe, we are undoubtedly empathically connected as when one answers the telephonic device the other exclaims (not surprised)you've been on my mind the past ...hrs/days :-) Wondrously tho when this occurs our native animals join in too ~ a large Dragonfly did several sweep bys at her end, a Hedgehog then it's 2 babies came to visit my bird seeds,a woodpecker another time (rare here), a deer & it's 2 foals another. We share the sights with one another & it always gives Great Heart & Soul cheer.
