A Slice of Heaven - 2009

Welcome to another look at the current planetary picture. Change is in the air indeed, and it’s more than just election year hype. Rapid change is happening in the hearts and minds of people, as everybody is getting their priorities straight. And the planets are adding more oomph to the game.
Spring is ever the season of renewal. The Topanga the hillsides are dressed up in emerald green and bright yellow, blue and purple flowers are out in force. Everything that moves seems to be abuzz and chirping these days. Unless already engulfed in the seasonal courtship ceremonies.
While this in an annual occurrence, we’re in for an extra treat this spring. Mars and Venus, the archetypal Adam and Eve of planetary dancers, are about to get together for an extended rendezvous. Venus is in slow motion, so they’ll be cavorting side by side in the steamy, hot headed sign of Aries for weeks! And meeting again at the magical 15* Taurus just after the summer solstice. Alright then, now fasten your bra straps and hold onto your belt buckles, it promises to be a wild ride.

Aries, Mar 20 - Apr 18
The spring equinox marks the entry point, the astrological new year. Whenever a planet passes through this ‘Aries Point’ is becomes especially charged and powerful. This extra charge applies first two degree of the cardinal signs, an area already sensitized by the recent entry of Pluto being into Capricorn. Major changes in the way global business is done.
Four planets will barge through the Aries point within 5 weeks. The Sun first, followed by mischief making Mercury. And Venus and Mars jumping the fence almost hand in hand, later in April.
This indicates exciting times, especially for personal relationships.

Since Mar 7 Venus is moving in retrograde from Aries into Pisces.
Since Aries is the most passionate, ‘driven’ sign of the Zodiac, Venus backtracking here means much drive and incentive to reevaluate relationships.

Mar 26v New Moon 6* Aries, conjunct Venus & Mercury
A fine time for personal growth and inner healing.

Apr 3, 4
Venus square Pluto SR
Quite likely the most intense part of the month. Can trigger conflicts of interest, jealousy issues or obsessing about the pas.t

Apr 15
Mars conjunct Uranus
On Taxday this volatile aspects makes people more impulsive and accident prone. Avoid short circuits, risk taking, and look out for sudden water surges.

Apr 17
Venus SD
Just in time for Earthday Venus is slowly turning about, with a wink and inviting come hither smile.

Taurus, Apr 19 - May 19
Generally a time for calm and mellow merry making, this years alignment of Venus and Mars will add much fuel to the fires of spring. This may be a fine chance to take things to another level, whether you are single, married or dating, invite the cosmic potential to show up and manifest.

Apr 21
Venus conjunct Mars 29* Pisces
Takes making dreamy, out-of-this-world connections to a whole new level. “… All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.”

Apr 23
Mars enters Aries
Extra Yang energy, driven, passionate, and action oriented. Must do something, impulsive. Look out in traffic, avoid hot heads or help them to calm down. Apr 24
Venus enters Aries
Moving slowly since the recent turn about Venus here is extra adventurous, equally driven, yet still moving smoothly alongside her consort for weeks. Here is an ample chance for romance, new beginnings.

May 2
Venus square Pluto,
Today you can finish or takes a new look at what happened in the beginning of February.

May 6
Mercury SR from 2* Gemini to 22* Taurus,
The messenger of the Gods is backing from it’s multifaceted, scatterbrain home turf into the practical, down to earth Taurus realm.
If you are up early, before sunrise you’re in for a treat. Check out Venus, Mars and Jupiter rising in the east.

Gemini, May 20 - Jun 19
This years Topanga Days happens during a Mercury retrograde period. It’s certain to bring up fond memories , old friends and some blasts from the past. Which happens to be quite in sync with this years theme for the fair.
There is also a New Moon that weekend, always a fine time for drawing inward, as people are more introverted. Generally not a great time to get a party started. However TopangaDaze always falls into the beginning of Gemini time, and the lively Aquarian placements will surely bring on the crowds.

May 27
Jupiter conjunct Neptune, expansion,
This alignment has been building up for a few while and will be in effect all summer long. The higher mind meets the great diffuser / unifier. Tendency to over do things, to get carried away. Visionary abilities.

May 28
Neptune SR
A stationary planet makes itself felt more acutely, in this case it takes a humanitarian stand. ‘We are one’

May 31
Mercury SD
Enough of reminiscence and remembrance already. Time to focus ahead and shift into the proactive mode already.

Jun 5
Sun square Saturn,
Good for negotiations, expansion, and serious partnerships. Money makes the world go round, and the whole global system will come up for revision.

Jun 15
Jupiter SR,
Next to Neptune this station imparts keen intuition. The magnanimous influence is extra strong, and so it weirdness factor. Life can indeed be stranger than fiction, just take a look at the news.

Jun 17
Sun trine Neptune, Jupiter, square Uranus.
Extra sensory perception, multidimensionality is at an all time high. Optimism rules, and some lucky gamblers will score big.

Throughout the month there is a strong Aquarian influence. This facilitates detachment, and enables a look at the larger, collective picture.
