In the combined July / August column I predicted that it was going to be a very hot summer regardless of the weather, and that has certainly proved itself out. We get all wound up regarding Mercury retrograde times in which communications, plans, negotiations and schedules go haywire. Mercury stops and goes direct motion on September 5, right on Donald Trump’s ascendant. The ascendant is a most sensitive point in any horoscope. Mars, the planet of exploration, courage, valour and bravery on the positive side of the coin, and war, anger, and violence on the other side, accompanies Mercury, and these two planets do not mix well at all. There’s bound to be trouble and controversy.
Remember the great American eclipse on August 21? It occurred at 28 degrees of Leo, (Trump’s ascendant) which is where Mercury and Mars meet up. That point is a cosmic hotspot, soaked with the fuel of frustration, irritation, and anger, and it won’t take much to set the whole thing ablaze. Let’s hope that it’s a blaze of awareness, consciousness and love. Just to add to the mix, Mercury forms a triangle with its higher octave planet Uranus which will pan out in the form of epiphanies, brilliant strategies, and powerful movements with masses of people involved. Later on in the month we have a Jupiter / Uranus opposition that will be in play until mid-October. Anything goes with this wild card combination of planetary influences. How about a revolution? Certainly a revolution in consciousness is way overdue. There are so many bright and brilliant people out there that know that things must change and change now.
We’re all on the same planet, with the same blood in our veins and all of us born the same way, and all of us estranged from the higher aspects of love and enlightenment. We need love and lots of it. One day this planet will be run by highly enlightened souls that are fully conscious and endowed with the power of love and wisdom. Let’s start this party now. Let’s move the neanderthals out of the way, and all their greedy warmongering friends with them. We have the the power of God’s love with us, and as my great Guru Param Sant kirpal Singh Ji Maharaj has said, “The golden age will not fall out of the sky, but will come from men’s hearts.” It’s a wakeup call folks, and not from the nightmare of war and violence, but of love, light and caring for one another. I’m down with it, are you? Can you love me? I love you.

Your solar fifth house of entertainment, and romance is strongly activated in September. The fifth house also rules over business adventures, gambling and creative endeavours.

Home, family, land and real estate are hot topics throughout the month. It may be time to buy, sell, or renovate. Speaking of renovations, it might be high time for some internal reno’s. The stars are calling for it, and it is always best to stay abreast of what the stars decree.

Love has a beginning but no ending. Love should always increase, but never decrease. Now the love planet Venus visits Leo until mid-month, then it enters your house of personal values and earning capacity. It’s time to dig deep and get to the truth of what is what, and what is real.

Saturn lingers in Sagittarius for a few more months. Saturn rules falls from high places. My Sagittarius neighbour fell off his ladder, and my Sagittarius grandson fell off his motorbike. Both are licking their wounds. Brighten up, they’re all good lessons learned in the school of hard knocks. Career opportunities may manifest this month.

Spirituality, philosophy and all matters to do with travel and education come into play now. Overall this is a time of transition and regeneration. It’s a long-term thing, and not to be worried about, but the main theme is continuing to let go of the past, enjoy the present, and embrace the future.

Oh, what a trail we have left behind throughout the ages. It’s nearly overwhelming to even consider how long our soul has existed, and how many times you have reincarnated on this planet. Heavy and heady as it is, you might be interested in delving into the deeper waters of the soul’s existence now.
