STARCODES for the week of

February 27, 2009

by Heather Roan Robbins

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase "each other" doesn't make any sense” said 14th century Persian poet Jelaluddin Rumi.
This week is alive, intelligent and full of debate. If we can walk with Rumi beyond the land of quick and easy judgment it can also be rich with new understanding as thoughtful Mercury in collective Aquarius conjuncts both feisty Mars and inspired Neptune, and quincunx disciplined Saturn.
But if not, we can find ourselves in heated arguments over our ideas, over which part of the economy to stimulate or where to put the salt and pepper. Our whole conversational landscape opens up and we can engage with one another and with abstract concepts; debate is healthy, but let’s keeps it debate and not war. It tempting to disagree with one another just on principle, because we like to be right, or because we usually disagree with this other side, and it’s tempting to get on our high horse of righteous indignation in the process. Just watch the fireworks in the Capitol. Take pity on any public figure that slips up this week, the media will be all over them just for something to bluster about. But take seriously any truly blustery weather systems; they’ll just need to blow themselves out.

This aspect can be magic if we engage one another, really look at their ideas, try on a new perspective and reexamine ours. Let’s debate with falsehood, illusion, and prejudice, not with a person or a political group. To keep these lines of communication open, it helps we make is safer for other to explore our ideas, let them feel they won, not lost, by dropping their knee-jerk opposition and exploring a new idea.

In a pragmatic form of this air-sign conjunction, we may hear new information about old airline accidents and hear new debate on how to improve transportation of all kinds. With Mars so close to atmospheric Neptune and mobile Mercury, pay extra care to avoid weather or alcohol related accidents or weather or alcohol related arguments. When in doubt, play it safe.

As the weekend begins impatience and bluster pick up like brewing winter storm. Sharp-edged feelings can bite off heads under an Aries Moon and as Mars and Mercury semi-square Pluto. Obsessive intensity, passions flare where the spark lights. If we desire to transform somebody or something, best it is ourselves. Surgical thinking can cut budgets, cut the body, cut out junk in the closet.

If we can meet each other beyond the garden of right and wrong, we can use this energy creatively. The political debate could be off the charts unless, by some miracle we can all pray for, our politicians walk out beyond their entrenched differences and get the job done. We need to prune our country back to healthy rootstock as Mercury conjuncts Mars. Let’s look at our own life to see what’s superfluous and can be pared down to give our healthy roots room to grow.

Mid-week is nervy, funny if easily-worried as the Moon enters Gemini; we’re more prepared to negotiate. The mutable Gemini vibe helps us adjust our plans and ourselves, rapid staccato communication can disseminate information or do stand-up comedy. Stay close to the wires and amidst the conversation as salient ideas get bandied about.
Towards the end of the week Mercury perfects a conjunction to dreamy Neptune; this conjunction has been inspiring our vision and engaging our dream-world for weeks, but as it peaks we really need to listen to our dreams, both the ones we have at night and the ones we share in our consensual realities.

We also need to notice what is a dream and what is this moment’s reality, essential thing to know to walk down the street unscathed. Because we can see it taste it feel it, (whether a dream or a nightmare) doesn't mean we're there yet, but the dream may be an important clue to guide us to where we want to go. So go ahead, buy the lottery ticket, but also prepare the new CV.
It is a great time for magic, so use intuition as to where to send the CV, and send it with prayers and blessings along the way that what come of it helps all sentient beings. Then follow up with a phone call.
