The Barefoot Vedic Astrologer

Last one of the year and it's in Ashlesha /Magha.

The truth may be revealed but first the fertile time must fly.

Do not be grieving when you find a truth. Truth can set you free and Truth can cut through illusion.

Mercury is crossing the serpants poisonous sack of protection in the next few days and goes to fire sign Leo.

KEEP IT SIMPLE.

If in doubt wait it out
..Mercury RetroSHADE to Sept 12th.

Final Mercury Gandanta 4/5 September

Aum NAMAH shivaya 🙏🕉👣

Eclipses can bring you very unusual and unsettling life experiences

Mercury moves forward from Earth's point of view this morning in Australia.

The muddled headed wombat leaves the room.

Have you found mixed up appointments, muddled bookings, confused communications, and annoying hiccups over August? Have you been getting your words mixed up leaving the brain muddled?

Well, Mercury does that when it's retrograde, and now that we've gone back and done what we need to do... We can now move forward to new experiences just around the corner!!

The muddleness and the confusion slowly leave the room.

Thanks, Mercury retrograde
See you in November!!

Tomorrow morning (early 4.30am ish) in the top end of Australia you will see the sky moon the waning moon with Mars in Gemini....

Vedic Astrology Observes the REAL placements in the sky and is based on thousands of years of observing the night sky.

You'll see Jupiter is in between the Moon and Mars and over to the west you will see a very bright  Saturn as he opposes the Sun in his closest pass to earth.

Saturn will be just past the mid heaven in Aquarius and Jupiter ( Ta**us) will be in between Moon Mars and towards the east

LOOK Southeast to see Jupiter up high in the sky in Ta**us with Uranus ( not visible to naked eye)

By sunrise Mars Stars, Saturn and Jupiter all disappear because of the bright light of the Sun.

But you will still see the moon!!

Moon in the  day sky the waning (the Krishna Paksha dark moon Fortnite )

New moon not far away now.
2nd/ 3rd of September.

This ushers in the eclipse season.

Coming full moon will be eclipsed by Rahu in Pisces. and the following new moon will also be eclipsed

baton down the hatches !!



🙏🕉👣

When love feels cactus

When life gives you 🍋 lemons

Fight .....or flight?

Take no action until you are ABSOLUTELY sure it's the right thing to do....

Or Chaos...

Discipline is the key for this dilemma!!

Muddy new Moon coming...early Sept a bit messy, intense..dark moon mudddy...like

Mars enters Gemini for a long stay in Gemini and Cancer..

Mars will be in these two signs, 28 August through to 7th July 2025....

Yep!!! LOOOOONG TIME, about 10 months with Mars spending most of this time debilitated in Cancer.

Like a chameleon Mars in Gemini will and can change colours

voila!

the evil leader becomes virtuous!

Information Action as Mars enters Gemini 28 August.

Wars of words... Wars about memes!

Madness !!!

Mercury is 29 degrees of Cancer and has just backed over the treacherous Gandanta, the end of a knot.

Emotional volatility as peoples toxicity may be revealed 😢 🤑.

So we are just going over this hurdle as Mercury moving RETROGRADE from 🔥 fire sign Leo to💧water sign Cancer to ).... for little mate Mercury, this reflects here on earth 🌎.

Mercury has just arrived in Ashlesha, the poisonous sack of a venomous 🐍 snake....the huge Hydra in the sky !!

All Mercury related issues become emotional and even toxic now...( take shelter in your good heart, 🙏). & some releif coming over the next few days with yesterday & today being particularly impacted.

The next few days remain unstable = UNSTABLE Mercury.. Unstable Earth.

Care is warrented, Moon is waning loosing light and energy daily to become dark Sept 3/4.

When Mercury struggles to do our thought processes & and communications, things go Hay wire people behave poorly.

Make Notes!! Check and double check appointments, flight schedules, messages and basically all communications.

Staying cool in potentially stressful situations will see you through, be flexible, stick to FACTS.

The Roads expect delays.

Lost Parrot?...take care of bird friends.. parrots in particular

Something arrive in the mail?..

Our ability to remember and focus can be severely challenged over the Mercury Gandanta ( now and again Sept 4/5 ).

Mercury goes direct August 29th.

Venus enters least favourite spot Aug 25th meets with Ketu which can be problematic for love and money 💰 matters.

Ketu with Venus gives us an opportunity to employ it's magical mystical superpower
of DETACHMENT
or
'DIVINE DISASSOCIATION' as my Mother loved to call this spiritual practice.

Having some distance or disconnecting for a break may be good idea now. Like an artist doing a piece of art, sometimes you have to stand back and view it from a distance..
That way you get a better perspective, especially if you have been intensely focused on an issue or been " too busy."

Being the observer, this is divine disassociation... = like you're watching a movie, your not in it you dont know the plot or whats going to happen next. You just watch.

Then what that does is gives us the feedback on what needs work, a tweek here, slightly adjusting to this there;
We can fix that mistake and work on what needs it.

Ketu is the Obstacle/s and overcoming it.

Ketu says what was true in the past is no longer true.

This can generates feelings of loss, the path is no longer valid. Ketu shows us the DEAD END, literally.

Ketu rides a vulture...what do vultures eat ?
Dead things...

The path has to be rectified.

This is the mystical framework you can use while Venus and Ketu travel together through healing organising Virgo to Sept 19th.

Suggested use of this gochara / transit of Venus Ketu instep wise Virgo or energetic download is as follows:

Take a step back
Let some distance come
What's it look like when you step back??

1 The self-centered view when you consider as if the world are revolves around you its a very small view

2 Eye level view, when you become conscious about your own limits and prejudices

3 Broad view of knowing / seeing consequences when you understand the effect of your own actions

4 Universal view here is my head on a platter Universe I know nothing!

We are heading to eclipse season Sept/Oct, so make Hay while that sun shines.

Widen your horizons

Examine your options

Consider consequences

Compare situations

Sort out thoughts and feelings

Fix any mistakes

Consider hereditary & psychological traits

Analyse choices before the " renovation "
& keep consequences in mind.

Set your house in order.... Venus in Virgo will love it...just don't be attached to the outcome!!!

Mercury Retrograde ( 5th to 29th Aug) is shifting gears as it grinds back from Fire Sign Leo to water Sign Cancer.

A repeat performance ( Jul 19-20)...
This is second crossing in this retrograde, 21/22 August & last one is September 4/5
🙃
The wires they cross, the messages get mixed, the appointment is missed, forgotten. The password 🤑 & the I T issues begin, if not already!! Expect the internet to be glitching and issues (technical& supply) phones and computers will be are back working as they should...🤣🤣🤣not!!
🤪
Old friends and faces show up.
🥰
Memorable world events- many famous may be shuffling of this mortal coil, ""significant"" Leaders, kings bosses etc Moon Sun type people.
🌞
Mercury Retrograde will stop opposing Saturn 22 August to Sept 5th... some pressure release for all.
😎
If you feel like you should be cautious careful & circumspect, trust that, do it.
☠️
Mercury retrograde is especially strong for Gemini / Virgo Moon signs in particular, but also Lagna ( Ascendant, ) and your Vedic Sun and especially if your in Mercury Mahadasha or Bhukti.

Second thoughts doubts all need to be looked at now.. re thinking is good 💡

As Mercury retrogrades into emotional moody Cancer people back away from emotional stuff now, people renig on deals and agreements as flaws and doubts are exposed... this is why contractual agreements are a no no during Mercury retrogrades.

Forget about handshake deals!
😳
Caution is warranted in paper work departments- double check any agreements with a fine tooth comb for the remainder of this month & into early September.
😡
For some of us we will muster the determination to part ways with the superficial and inferior and turn towards much more worthy path.

What previously worked does not anymore. It has become obsolete, therefore new strategies methods and thinking is now very appropriate.

This time can be very useful in re aligning with the very best in you. Tap into setting you sights high, chances are you can open doors to that in coming weeks 😀.
🥰
Everything that happens to us, properly understood, leads us back to ourselves; it is as though there were some unconscious guidance whose aim it is to deliver us from all ties and all dependence and make us dependent on ourselves.
Jung --Letters

🙏🕉👣

Next Mercury RetroGRADE is Oct 31 in Scorpio ♏️

🤪 🙃 😜 🙂

Moon is now waning to newness & approaches Saturn.

Might be a go slow day as time drags its heels across today and tommorow in Australia.

Saturns glance cannot help but bring maturity and perhaps if your lucky today you will come to a new level of emotional understanding about some matters, perhaps your children ( if you have them), a romantic issue or some emotional issue that has been around for some time. 

Be aware that your outlook maybe narrow & critical with strong  judgements.
We can be overly critical and not realise it. So be extra careful of what comes out of your mouth. Be careful what you put into your mouth too, go for healthy choices today  be disciplined and Saturn will stay out of your head !!

Saturn requires a reality check up....

Sun is changing signs overnight in Oz from  Moon ruled Cancer to Sun ruled Leo. Sun will immediate oppose Saturn.

As the Sun moves through sandhi, the joint between Solar signs it is a tricky little timeframe and it is definitely worthhbeing  extra-mindful and aware over the next 24/48 little hours.

Things just don't go well. Especially for Men in general, boss' presidents, leaders etc. Our Masculine energy is temporarily weaker.

Its very wise  to tread cautiously, literally WATCH YOUR STEP, we can easily slip thru a crack now.

As Sun is in transition we can tend to lose energy drive and vitality....

We can lose our bearings and literally/ actually get lost.... ( happened to me !! ) ...SUN changes signs monthly & this breif little window can have us feeling vulnerable, weak or lacking confidence.

We can miss appointments, or completely forget about it!! ... it's a good time frame to examine your motivations and the strength ( or lack of ) of your willpower!

We also can misplace belongings, especially important items like keys, glasses etc, so be prepared for " one of those days" .

Know that things wil be unclear in this dynamic little portal of time, but it soon passes, Like an elbow joint or knee joint, its a  complex turning point.

Generally, the Sun’s strength (our confidence and vitality) weakens as Sun puts on the wobbly boots for a short trip changing signs.

Conseve your energy ...take only limited action as needed...

The old one step at a time works well now, allow the situation to unfold as it will at it own pace...allow the changes to take place.

A mixture of action backed by intuition may suceed now ... Fire meets ether giving fast and furious actions that have long lasting consequences ( seen and unseen).

"Actions speak louder than words.”

And with enough willpower, success can be won now. But who has this will power ?

How is your will power/ mind set ?

Excellent time for adjusting now.

Best way to whether the stormy cosmic weather this week is to keep your composure.  A bouyant positive cheerfulness ( that's not a put on ) and a light heart may assist in navigating any present hardship too, taking it on the chin and doing the best you can with bemused detachment may be a good strategy too.

Stay calm !

Frustrating lack of info and everything seems obstructed distracted retracted and redacted.

Those who need help are stranded for now! Awareness is lacking for a lot of us hence the stuckness.

Energy levels will fluctuate wildly too for  a bit, especially end of the week.

What's your intuition telling you ? Or are you too busy to listen ?

It will untangle and unravel over the next few days / weeks...especially around 21/22 Aug and finally 4/5 September, watch what is delivered in these time frames.

It's like a Cosmic storm, the thunder wind and rain help shift the oppressive heat.

So in a storm you do what needs doing take shelter and let it pass and as stability returns and peril leaves you will emerge hopefully not battered by this energy.

These forces, therefore, must not be left to run wild, but should be disposed of in harmless ways or, better still, used for constructive purposes: creative activities of various kinds; the rebuilding of our personality, contributing to our Psychosynthesis.
Roberto Assagioli -- Psychosynthesis

JUPITER MARS incoming

Busy week this week:
Mars Jupiter
Sun to Leo
Sun opposes Saturn
Merc Rx opposes Saturn
Full Moon with Saturn
Mercury Gandanta

Mars Jupiter conjunctions on the 15th, which will energize a lot of us and perhaps spark some philosophical debates and arguments ( Laws) about beliefs and which direction you're going in. This is a pretty rare conjunction happening about every 2 odd years. It will certainly energize Aries and Scorpio & give some opportunity, and for Sagittarius and Pisces, well, they're gonna be doing a lot !! Talk about an action-packed time frame!! They're gonna be busy, busy people, those Sagittarius's & Pisces!!
We have the Sun changing signs on the 16th 17th of August. It's always a tricky 48 odd hours. But this one is a Gandanta crossing. Sun moves from watery cancer to fire full Leo...when in doubt, wait it out kinda time. Just contemplate what unfolds, restrain your need to offer opinions or meddle. Good time to see your own bu****it too.

The Sun will then oppose Saturn. This is gonna be a difficult 4 week transit. Things, reality is here now, and it's a HARSH reality.

This reality could give some people some rude awakenings. This will be a difficult period for leaders bosses those in authority. Heads roll. Rejection of leaders. We will see lots of Hollywood /famous people perhaps lose their popularity too now. Many die when Mercury is retrograde.

The Sun and Saturn are classic enemies, and they get exact around the eighth or 9th of September.
It was a A very intense week the first couple of weeks of September.

This is because then we're heading into eclipse season by then, but wait, there's more, Mercury will also be opposed to Saturn with the Sun, and this has some very serious implications for the world.

We will be doing some very serious thinking, some very deep Introspective thinking about what is going on in this world, some conversations that we've been putting off may have to be had over the next month or so and they could be rather difficult conversations.

This energy is good for long-term planning, so while you can expect to be slowed down and somewhat frustrated with the obstacles and delays that will manifest over the next month, you can use it constructively by planning, getting organised, putting your " house in order".

The full moon on the 17th and 18th is a full moon with Saturn! So it's a bit of a gloomy full Moon in Aquarius ruled by Lord Saturn & Rahu, who is the chief and commander of the world at the moment.

Lord Rahu is indicator of all insatiable desires, self gratification, materialism, addiction, occultism, BAD HABITS, illusions, delusions, dirt, filth, PARASITES, cancer, theft, LIES, uncurable disease, murder, imprisonment etc etc. The chaos and destruction around us, the black screen lord of delusions and deceit, Rahu leads us all in the direction of ultimate destruction.

A high way to hell vs. a stairway to heaven. Where is your trajectory sending you ?

Watch the spotlight of the full Moon ( 17/18th) to see what it👽 exposes, 👺won't be pretty.👹.

Then, on August 21st, 22nd, we have Mercury going through that tricky spot retrograde ( unravelling will unfold) the Gandanta again. This time, fire to water....back to the past. In this time frame you can expect outages/disruption with the communication networks/internet/eft, mis communication etc It's the same place that Mercury went over the 19th 20th of July which produced that outage with the crowd shared people thing. Mercury retrograde in Cancer from 22 August will take us through a toxic emotional period to Sept 5th.

The full Moon will be very revealing with Saturn there. The full moon is the culmination of this very intense

So for us personally, a humble attitude is good when lord Shani is around, if you've got a big head Rahu or Saturn will probably chop it off, if you're too ambitious it could get you into trouble during this time so you might have to rein in some of those INSATIABLE desiredls and be very practical about your reality, stay on your accustomed path as these next couple of weeks ( well months really Sept/Oct) are gonna of be testing, tricky, but if we can just proceed like business as usual stick to our principles & values, then we can advance.

So, with caution and determination, we will get through this tricky kind of time frame. Caution is warranted because even if you want to achieve something that's a bit dangerous, if you are very cautious, and minimise risks, you may suceed or in other words proceed with caution and remember discretion is always the better part of Valor.
