Guest guest Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Transits for Tomorrow! (Thought you might like receiving the transits the night before!) See a complete list of each planets degrees listed below. For… Wednesday October 8th, 2008 Highlights Of Transits! Moon Moves into Capricorn, Moon w/Rahu & Aspected by Mars in Libra. Mercury’s Still Retrograde & Combust again today! Though, Mercury’s still Exalted in Virgo, too. Venus in Libra, still & Venus still being fully aspected by Saturn, Also!Jupiter still in its Own Sign ofSagittarius. Now, the Details: Moon’s at the 5th degree of Capricorn Tomorrow 10/8/08 9am, Did you feel the beginning of this shift today, (10/7) ? Today, Moon was very close to Jupiter but you could feel the Moon was being affected by something much more malefic then say yesterday when the Moon was in the earlier degrees of Sagittarius. Today, the Moon began about the 20th degree of Sagittarius, even as Jupiter was at the 19th degree of Sagittarius. But, the weather here, my subtle inner weather experience of the Transits were much more rough. It felt like Rahu, which I’ve watched now for 2 ½ days a month for 12 months and for over 18 years; But, The Moon was still about 30 degrees away from Rahu which is at the 22nd degree in Capricorn. Then, it occurred to me! Mars’ 4th House influence from Libra is now affecting the 9th degree of Capricorn. Last month Mars was in Virgo and you couldn’t feel its influence upon Capricorn. Now, the Moon shows us the subtle shifts of karmic realities. Soooo, be more aware if you feel rough on a feeling level. Allow yourself to be more still as the Moon flows in front of Rahu and Mars’ simultaneous energies. The deeper we go inside the more all the outer influences will influence Us less and less! Mercury Mercury’s still in Retrograde motion; which means PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION, TO All Decision Makings….! This is especially important because also Mercury & the Sun are completely combust at the same time! Tomorrow, October 8th, Mercury will be at the 18th degree of Virgo, while Sun’s at the 21st degree, also in Virgo… In other words, Mercury’s combustion is still going on! Typical, negative results are that the intellect doesn’t work right now or is sluggish, to say the least. So, if you have frustrations with your mind, thinking, and especially decision makings then this is probably why. Sun continues going ahead and Mercury lessening in degrees over the next few days due to its Retrograde motion so this will quickly subside too! Though if you don’t feel Mercury’s combustion sometimes this is because Mercury is least affected by combustion, Since Mercury is always so close to the Sun. PRESCRIPTION: Rest your wonderful intellect. Be easy, let it rest. Don’t worry about using it so much. The only problems we’ll tend to have if we’re in work situations which demand the same kind of normal Mercurical functionings and its not as brilliant now. Fortunately, Mercury’s still EXALTED in Virgo So that’ll help a lot! Venus has now moved to the 23rd degree of Libra, On October 8th…So….. Which normally would be extremely great! However, be warned, today Saturn is also at the 22nd degree of Leo right now, So, Venus is at the exact degree of Saturn’s 3rd HOUSE ASPECT…. If you experience any delay, disappointment and frustration today, regarding literally ANYTHING, To do with the Venus heart! Then, this is why! Mars Mars is now at the 9th degree of Libra, which is such a more pleasant transit then when it was in Virgo. But, today, 10/7 you could feel the Moon being affected by Mars’ 4th house aspect. (Upon the 9th degree of Capricorn) Perhaps this is because Rahu’s also in Capricorn. So, beware of feeling too pitta or fiery during tomorrow, October 8th as well. SATURN This may be a good time to reflect on Saturn again. There are two ways to interpret Saturn’s many astrological moments or aspects. #1 most of the time people think Saturn represents a curse, a kind of negative event in the universe that has the specific characteristics of: Delays Frustrations Disappointments, Dis-ease, Even disease! Loss, Grief, Separation, And On and on! But, the better more enlightened, insightful way of understanding Saturn’s effects is in terms of PURITY! Saturn is the living embodiment of Silence! As it moves about the Cosmos, if we’re in-tune with it, then we feel the momentary Saturn moments of quietness, stillness, silent grace and even the possibility of presence of God! But, if we’re not presently in-tune with Saturn, then, something of a purifying nature results! If we’ve been working too hard, and then, one night finally get more rest, we spend the whole night tossing and turning! How unfair is that, we think! The one night I try and catch up, I end up NOT sleeping! However, what is really going on is the body is purifying! It’s under a lot of backlog of stress and fatigue and is spending this precious relaxation time, throwing off as much stress as it can! This is of a real, physical phenomena, and because the mind and body are connected, as the body unstresses the stresses, the mind as intense dreams, Even nightmares are due to the positive Saturn release of stress! Next time you find yourself under the typically negative grip of Saturn; Remember this and adjust, allowing this time to go on. And, don’t feel so bad if the smoke is flying. We clean house and for a few moments the dust is all up in the air! It almost seems like the house is more dirty! However, the dust is on the way out, and as the ‘dust’ flys, we should feel good! Like that, Saturn moments seem like dust flying, around our life. Instead of feeling any pinches with the heart, disappointment, imaginings bad things; Allow, yourself to BE with Saturn in terms of your heart today! and tomorrow! Rahu Finally, Rahu’s at the 22nd degree of Capricorn tomorrow. Moon moves into Capricorn today, 10/8 so you may begin to feel Rahu’s influence too. If intense desires, obsessions or addictions pop up, recognize this is due to Rahu’s negative aspect; And let them go.. And Remedy is to be more silent along with your desires! List of all Planets by Degree & Sign: For 9am October 8th 2008 Sun 21:40 degree Virgo Moon 4:48 degree Capricorn Mercury 18:02 degree Virgo Venus 23:38 degree Libra Mars 8:59 degree Libra Jupiter 19:59 degree Sagittarius Saturn 22:09 degree Leo Rahu 22:45 degree Capricorn Ketu 22:45 degree Cancer Watch the degrees every day and you will learn to experience all the various rules and principles of Astrology-Jyotish. Sincerely, Mark Kincaid Article on rest and activity and Saturn! REST & ACTIVITY! I think the greatest thing I've learned from yoga and meditation Was this idea of rest and activity! Every moment of every day involves one or other of these two cycles. Right now I’m typing. What we miss when we’re doing, is that between each action, the body Still needs to rest. Those that have to push too fast or too hard, Pick up a lot of strain or stress. Carpal tunneling, is an example where repetitive motion is so Fast and furious, That not enough time was had for resting; And this extreme, debilitating dis-ease, Results! Those who are moving but having accidents are not taking the time For resting, between motions of activity. Timings also have an element of rest and activity. How often have we gone ahead with some project or work related Endeavor, Only to experience a lot of frustrations. Either we can’t get hold of the right people, or they’re not getting Back to us soon enough, or we're not experiencing what we call NATURE'S SUPPORT! WHY? Because of a lack of balance between our rest and activity! SATURN! If we understand the role of rest and activity; then, when we find ourselves deep within the ‘REST’ Saturn phase of any event, We’ll be able to truly just BE! And, being able to enjoy the rest phases of life, means that Saturn Is deeply re-enlivened and appreciated. SATURN, HIMSELF, IS A REST PHASE! So often, when either a Saturn transit or Dasa time period happens, we have a very difficult time with these. Ever wonder why? Because we’re not in-tune enough with Saturn, and as a result, Saturn Causes in us some purification! Saturn, himself, is the embodiment of moving Silence. He moves ever so slowly. He feels like a boulder or a vortex of silence. How we’re experiencing Saturn is nature’s way of showing us how in-tune we are with our silent, peaceful, inward, Saturn nature! If we’ve been pushing or working too hard, then Saturn periods find That backlog of fatigue and stress and then trys to push it out! We’ll feel a lot of inner commotion sometimes especially when Moon and Saturn are colliding! We'll sometimes notice that we have a very rough and intense amount of negative dreams at night! Ever wonder why this is? Most people think that this is because Saturn is bad! Or evil! Or malefic! Really, Saturn is extremely pure! Saturn in fact, has a very bad rap! If Jupiter is the right hand of God, Reaching down and through Grace, picking us up; Then Saturn is the left hand of God, Slapping us whenever we need it! Think of it! We stay up too late, and violating the laws of nature; Wake up exhausted and fatigued! Why do we feel this way? Who is the agent of our fatigue and stress grief? SATURN! Saturn has the thankless task of delivering us all our so-called ‘BAD’ karmas! We stay up too late! We feel tired and not refreshed! We push too hard on a project at work, And feel deeply exhausted and burnt out. We feel some sickness coming on, And we ignore those signs from nature, and fall sick! Who’s the ONE that’s bringing us all these ‘out of balance’ calamaties? Of course, SATURN! No wonder we hate him! No wonder we reduce him to a status of an evil doer! No wonder we misunderstand him! But, there are two instances that begin to change our mind. #1 we can find, in those people’s charts where Saturn is supposedly benefic; that the results of Saturn are also benefic! What does this mean? It means that Saturn is in direct proportion to how much inner balance, And inner peace we have. If we're born with it, or especially 'develop' it, then Saturn can be positive! If we develop our inner resources, and strengthen our silent, Quiet part of us; Then automatically…. Saturn’s silence begins to grow! And as Saturn improves, then ALL the negative consequences of Saturn begin to recede! As it turns out Saturn is about the same size of Jupiter. But, ‘HE’ has the thankless task of bringing us all our worst nightmares! Why? Why, does HE do it? In fact, HE doesn't. We do! So, then we should ask who does? We create them! But, why? Why would we do such a thing? Because of our ignorance, because of a lack of clarity, because of a lack of education, or because we're just innocently not taking enough regular rest! Whatever the reason, Saturn will give us, in direct proportion to our actions; The results of our rest and activity! If we engage in a healthy way in both these cycles; then Saturn is appeased! And balance and peacefulness results! If we don’t then, grief and suffering will be ours! The cool thing too, is that Saturn, HIMSELF doesn’t even really Cause these things! It’s US, our actions and choices that determine our consequences. Saturn is just the innocent harbinger of dis-ease, disease and death! I call it the 3-D’s of Saturn! He just brings to us the results of our previous actions! But, at every moment, nature is happy if we choose a different path! If right now, we can resolve to be better, to give more regular rest to our bodies, hearts and minds; Then, IMMEEDIATELY, Saturn’s consequences will be better! Try it! Next time you find yourself in a negative Saturn moment; Resolve that next time you’ll be better! That’s why I love these Saturn transiting moments. Happens about 4 times a month. Moon & Saturn in the same Sign. Moon 3 Houses away from Saturn. Moon 7 Houses away from Saturn. Moon 10 Houses away from Saturn. All these aspects of Saturn upon the Moon, are the classic; MONTHLY Saturn moments! Watch these over this next month to determine how in-tune you are RIGHT NOW, With your Saturn! Then, if you don’t like the negative results that come during these times; Then, RESOLVE, To be more in-tune with Saturn; for next month! This sounds like a great project! Let’s do it! ANYONE WHO WISHES TO STRENGTHEN THEIR SATURN’S OVER THE NEXT 4-8 WEEKS; LET’S START TODAY! How was your most recent Moon & Saturn collision? Yesterday and the day before Moon and Saturn were very close. Moon & Saturn were the exact 20th degree in Leo on: September 27th At 10:30am CST How was that day for you! For me that was very rough! That shows me, in-spite of all the years I’ve been devoted to meditating, Yoga and being in-tune with Saturn, that Right now, I’ve been working too hard! And, that’s exactly what I’ve been doing. I’ve recently moved. I’ve been working very hard on my book. I even did 2 construction projects to make money; these last 6 weeks. No wonder my Saturn experience; Gave me grief! My resolution, then, for myself is that next month I, too will be more in-tune again with Sani! In fact, I’m going to resolve that even in the next few days I hope to be more balanced! Because, soon, the Moon moves into Libra, where the 3rd House aspect of Saturn Influences comes! Saturn’s in Leo, So it’s 3rd House influence will be upon Libra! Look and see how that next Saturn moment is for you! That’ll tell you how in-tune you are with your Saturn! If we’re experiencing any negative results with Saturn; Then this is Saturn-nature telling us we’re out of tune, And will experience many various malefic signs of Saturn. We may experience fatigue and stress! We may experience delays, impatience, frustrations and then grief! We may experience dis-ease, sickness, or disease! These, of course, are more advanced, chronic Saturn malefic realities! If we’ve been acting out of tune with Saturn for a longer while; We’ll feel dis-ease, Or sickness Or disease, Or early death! Ugh! Saturn sounds horrible! Nope! Saturn, again, is just the messenger. What is that old expression? " Don’t shoot the messenger! " Saturn is that messenger, that we don’t like and yes, has that thankless Task of bringing us all the ‘junk’ we’ve created! The good news? The good news is at every moment we CAN CHANGE OUR WAYS! The moment, we get tired of creating stress or fatigue; Then, immediately we can do it! Start today! And experience how wonderful life is! How wonderful Saturn will treat you, when you treat yourself better! Good luck! And God bless Jai Guru Mark K. See below for r’s experiences of these most recent transits! From Nicole in New York “Mark, My husband’s been in the hospital since the 17th of September. Do you think that this is caused by all these most recent transits? I too, have been experiencing the roughness that you’ve predicted, And am wondering if his illness is connected to these, as well?” “Dear Nicole: Remember that the stars, transits, especially malefic one’s like Saturn and Rahu are there to help us! When, however, we’ve been working too hard, (see story above) we’ll notice during particularly trying transits, that the backlog of stress and fatigue comes out! Or if we’re not feeling particularly balanced and in-tune with, say Saturn; Then, during especially Saturn but also Rahu transits, We’ll feel roughness, tossing and turning and get sick, Or have a health challenge worsen during this time. It isn’t that the negative or malefic transits are causing us our illness! Instead they are trying to help us get rid of our impurities! So, backlog’s of fatigue and stress will rush out especially during Saturn times, like today, or New Moon times like this entire last week, And New Moon tomorrow! The key is that we get why this is happening, and work with the stars to evolve into a version of our self that will be in the future MORE IN-TUNE WITH NATURE! The more in-tune with nature we are, the happier and more successful We’ll be in life! Hope this helps! Sincerely, Mark Kincaid Previous Transits newsletters: September 23rd Venus is In Libra Till October (Where it’s in its Own Sign) Planetary War Still Going on…. Between Mars & Mercury Still both 28th degree in Virgo. (See below for Subscriber’s Comments and Questions.) Don’t buy into any so-called ‘irrational’ Anger dominating Your Intellect today! Subscriber’s Comments: From Iowa, US Re. Moon & Rahu’s Influence ”Mark, Yesterday, when the Moon went into Gemini, I still felt the roughness Of Rahu as it was the day before, (as you predicted by the way.) Can you explain why? In the afternoon I felt the intensity and roughness of Rahu stop, but in the am, still felt kind of crazy?” “Dear Terry: One think you’ll notice the more carefully you pay attention to the transits is that the planet’s influences don’t stop at the border of the Signs. So, even though technically, the Moon had made its transition into Gemini, and you could especially feel that shift from Exalted Taurus into Gemini ness!; Still the Rahu quality persisted because each planet creates an influence of a full 30 degrees.. around which it influences. So, the fact that Rahu’s at approximately the 24th degree of Capricorn, its influence Ranges most intensely from the 9th degree of Capricorn to the 26th degree of Aquarius. In other words think of the influence of the planets as ranging 15 degrees on both Sides of where they’re at. So, Rahu will aspect back into Aquarius as well as Capricorn. This means too, that Rahu’s aspects at the 5th, 7th and 9th houses away,… Will also be with that 30 degrees of orbit. I hope this isn’t too complicated, but you just experienced this phenomena! The fact that Rahu influences the 5th house away from where it’s at into Taurus Has been experienced vividly each month when the Moon goes into Taurus. And, When the Moon gets closer and closer to the exact degrees of Rahu, (24th) Means though in Taurus, is also easy to experience. However, now you’ve also noticed that Rahu’s intense influence is still lingering Even though the Moon has started its run into Gemini, shows Rahu’s influence Really does spread out over the full 30 degrees.. Watch for other examples of each planet influencing 30 degrees from where it is. So, for example, Mars and Mercury are both at the 28th degree of Virgo RIGHT NOW… Therefore the primary influence is in Virgo of this conflict. So, wherever Virgo is in our charts, especially what house our Virgo is in, Is right now experiencing the most intense flavor of that PLANETARY WAR! However, even now, you can begin to feel that influence into Libra! Just because of that 30 degree influence. Again, add 15 degrees onto the 28th degree of Virgo, and you’ll find that this conflict Of Mars and Mercury is also influencing the 1st 13 degrees of Libra too. Those people for example, who have any planets within the 1st 13 degrees of Libra, Will experience this conflict upon those planets even now. Then, as Mars moves into Libra, that Mars influence will be influencing those same Planets within the Libra. Hope this was clear! Sincerely, Mark Kincaid Previous Transits Newsletters! September 18, 2009 Sun’s Moved into Virgo now 2nd degree (We’ll talk again soon about what the purpose and possible meanings of Sun in Virgo might be like for us.) However, there’s quite a bit of other Virgo energies going on which are good to reflect on! Mercury’s in Exalted Virgo! (27th degree Now, 9/18). Great time to use one’s intellect, to study, understand, communicate and articulate…. Mercury goes Retrograde on 24th…of September (Which I like, because this means the Exalted nature of Mercury in Virgo will be prolonged due to this. Though the retrograde motion will also mean the strength of Mercury’s Exaltation won’t be quite as strong. But, we might notice it more because Venus in Virgo will have ended, and so Will Mars’ recent transit, also in Virgo. Mercury Retrograde till October 15th, 2008. Then, stays in Exaltation again, until November 1st! Wow, take advantage of this next month of great Mercury clarity of mind! Venus in Virgo 9/18 (29th degree in Virgo, its sign of Debilitation!) VENUS IS FINALLY MOVING OUT OF DEBILITATION AND INTO LIBRA ON September 19th Tomorrow! See if you can feel the shift! Mars is still in Virgo too! Now, Mars is at the 26th degree of Virgo And where Mars and Venus are starting to be less on top of each other, right now, Mars is Dangerously close to Mercury, which is at the 27th degree also in Virgo. Planetary War of Mars and Mercury RIGHT NOW! Moon’s in Pisces Moon’s continuing to wane. Today, Moon’s already at the 13 degree of Pisces! Good time to do and accomplish which is the Aries flavor. Jupiter’s still in Sagittarius (18th degree, 12 more degrees in its Own Sign of Sagittarius, until December 10th 2008)…. Juptier’s extremely powerful in its Own sign of Sagittarius so continue to take Advantage of pure knowledge and wisdom flowing during these last few Months of Jupiter’s transit! Saturn’s at the 19th degree of Leo For many people, this recent transit going through Leo has been pretty rough. This is because Leo is the home of the Sun, or self-confidence. Therefore all kinds of lessons of self, of selfish ness, or self-worth, all come during this 30 year transit. Also, Saturn and Sun recently collided, (Sun’s now at the 27th degree of Leo, meaning that the Sun now is 8 degrees away!) Always, of course, when you do your 1 minute Star check each day, Check and see how you’re doing with your Saturn! And, finally, Rahu & Ketu Rahu’s at the 24th degree of Capricorn and Ketu’s at the 24th degree of Cancer. Rahu’s in Capricorn which means obsessions, compulsions and addictions about Capricorn Accomplishments! So, be more easy about your goals and dreams! Ketu in Cancer, means ‘other worldly ness’ about peace of mind. Good placement to looking within for peace of mind. If you’re feeling unsettled due to Ketu’s recent movement into Cancer, Then put more attention on the inner…. The transits are nature’s way and timing to bring to us all the lessons and purpose’s of our lives! Studying the transits has been literally, the best astrological thing I’ve done that’s helped Me the most! I hope it is as positive for you too! Sincerely, Mark Kincaid Previous Transit Newsletter from Sept. 13th September 13, 2009 Sun’s in Leo (27th degree, 3 more days in its Own Sign)! Sun’s very happy in Leo, so take advantage of last 3 days of great Sun Self-confidence and strength of will! Moon’s in Aquarius Moon just entering Aquarius (6th degree, right now) This means because the Sun’s in Leo, that the Moon is very close to the Full Moon now! Full Moon: Two Days from Now! September 15th, about 4am, cst. Enjoy this fullness of the Moon! While the Sun’s in Leo. If however, you’re still feeling Saturn’s influence also being in Leo, upon the Moon, Then, get more rest then you’d normally for a Full Moon! Jupiter’s still in Sagittarius (18th degree, 12 more degrees in its Own Sign of Sagittarius, until December 10th 2008)…. Juptier’s extremely powerful in its Own sign of Sagittarius so continue to take Advantage of pure knowledge and wisdom flowing during these last few Months of Jupiter’s transit! Mercury’s in Exalted Virgo! (23rd degree of Virgo. Great time to use one’s intellect, to study, understand, communicate and articulate….) Mercury goes Retrograde on 24th…of September (Which I like, because this means the Exalted nature of Mercury in Virgo will be prolonged due to this. Though the retrograde motion will also mean the strength of Mercury’s Exaltation won’t be quite as strong.

Then, stays in Exaltation again, until November 1st! Wow, take advantage of this next month of great Mercury clarity of mind! Venus in Virgo (23rd degree in Virgo, its sign of Debilitation!) Venus is in its worst possible place in Virgo. This is because the heart is in the sign Of reason! And what is that old expression, ‘love knows NO reason’! So, don’t let this Virgo ness get your hearts down! Venus moves into Libra on September 19th !!! Its Own Sign! So, hold on for 6 more days! If the heart, romance, or relationships have been Strained of late! Mars is in Virgo too! This has been a very rough transit too. If Venus is unhappy in Virgo, Mars is aggressively angry in Virgo! Now, Mars is at the 22nd degree of Virgo The good news is not too much longer being in Virgo. The other difficulty is Mars is only 1 degree away from debilitated Venus which is at the 23rd degree! Planetary War of Mars and Venus RIGHT NOW! Saturn’s at the 19th degree of Leo For many people, this recent transit going through Leo has been pretty rough. This is because Leo is the home of the Sun, or self-confidence. Therefore all kinds of lessons of self, of selfish ness, or self-worth, all come during this 30 year transit.
