Dear friends, I am hoping to get back on a more or less regular writing schedule and as always appreciate your patience. I’m also going to try something new, which is to keep the planetary information simple but include the astrological details at the bottom of the post. I hope that this will help those of you new to astrology, which is most of my readership, while still giving the experts the information they need.
On to today’s news! First of all, Pluto is shining a laser beam right now that will continue throughout the months of September and October. Pluto is the Lord of the Underworld of the Psyche, and when its influence is powerful as it is right now there is a tendency for the dark underbelly of the collective psyche to be revealed.
If like me Pluto is activating your personal chart, you are likely to experience a higher level of intensity and confrontation than usual as Pluto works to strip away our false selves to reveal the Truth that lies beneath over the next few months.
The other big piece of astrological news is the deconstruction and pressure for radical change that is the dance between Jupiter and Uranus. Both of these planets seek change and liberation, but in this cycle they are in a challenging aspect to each other which can be somewhat destabilizing as part of us yearns for change, yet change is occurring in a manner that is unexpected and perhaps undesired.
Under this influence change can be uncomfortable for many of us. It’s not unusual to be unhappy with an aspect of our lives yet be unwilling or afraid to create the upheaval required to make a change. A planetary aspect like this can motivate and inspire us to let go a little bit and let that magic happen!
Geeky astrological details: Pluto turns direct on September 28th and is stationary throughout September and October. The opposition between Jupiter in Libra and Uranus in Aries which began in December 2016 and went through its second phase in March also culminates on September 28th.

Lynn: Does Pluto retrograde or does it go direct on September 28? You said retrograde. I thought it goes direct? Thanks Gina
You are right Gina! It turns direct. I knew that, but my computer typed retrograde. :)
Thank you Lynn!!!!!!
I am new to astrology and all the details did make it hard for me to sift through the data, and assimilate the information.
Yes, there are BIG changes going on that basically started in May (for me) and peaked during the Eclipse. Thank god things are starting to mellow-out. I’ve been declutter for a few months and this week will be my best for this task, to bring in more Love, Joy, and Harmony. .
Lynn, did these hurricanes add to the change?
Many, many people volunteered to help using their own equipment and taking time off from work, while others generously donated money and blood. After 4 -5 years of division, these did help to unite us.
Because of the light radiated by healers, beliefs perpetuated in falsehoods are diminishing. This creates advancements in conscious and spiritual awareness to come more quickly.
Letting Go with Forgiveness
– By Ana Holub
Forgiveness truly is heart medicine. It involves healing the Spirit. The important thing for us to remember is the uniting, creative force of Love. Only this Love is real, and only Love has the power to heal and reunite.
I sometimes call our forgiveness journey a jump into the River of Love. Life gave us our experiences to show us that NO MATTER WHAT, the River of Love will float us home to a deep sense of inner security and serenity. This experience of forgiveness teaches us to release and find gratitude. It gives us the joy and freedom of knowing we have a friend. The River of Love shows us to relax into the safety we share with the Divine Spirit.
In committing to make use of the River of Love on our path of freedom, we will heal our spirit and unite our hearts.
Thank you Deb.
Changing what you have, comes from changing who you are.
And changing who you are comes from changing what you think.
Which is why I made the latter so easy to do.
