This Week in Astrology, October 20, 2008

Chiron -- the wounder healer, mentor and maverick -- goes direct this week, as illustrated in a listener chart. We also have the Sun getting a double-hit of energy from the eighth letter of the astrology alphabet (it trines Pluto and enters Scorpio ), and Mercury trines Chiron and squares Jupiter (beware of Motormouth Syndrome!). A special bonus is the sinuous instrumental "Scorpio," written by our faithful listener Pierre to celebrate the Sun's entry into the sign of the snake, scorpion, eagle and phoenix. Hear all about this and more -- click here to listen, or go to www.ThisWeekInAstrology.com to learn about getting the show through iTunes. (We love it when you subscribe through iTunes!)

This Week in Astrology: Clarification of the "Possible Election Cancellation" Statement

This is a clarification to the This Week in Astrology blog post I sent out earlier tonight. In that post, I am not suggesting that the US presidential election will be cancelled! Spiritsong and I do respond to a listener who asks about that possibility in Part Two of the 10/13/08 show, but putting the words "the possible cancellation of the US presidential election" in bold type may have been confusing. I regret having done that, and apologize for any unfounded worry this may have caused. We do not consider it likely that the election will be cancelled, although the Uranus-Saturn opposition which comes exact on Election Day does significantly increase the chances that something unexpected will happen. The exact nature of any such event is, however, beyond our ability to predict. May the stars light your way, Benjamin Bernstein Holistic Astrologer

This Week in Astrology, October 13-19, 2008

This week we have Mercury finally going direct (was that Mercury retrograde global financial meltdown intense enough for you?), a Full Moon in Aries (bar fight alert!) Venus' entry into Sagittarius (freedom within relationships!) and Spiritsong co-hosting the entire show (yay!). Plus we answer a listener's question about the possible cancellation of the US presidential election! Also, as of this show, Part One listener charts illustrating the week's transits will now appear after the seven-day forecast. That way , those of you who just want to know the week's astrological weather can get the info you want more quickly!
