At any given
time, not only are there a large number of “situations” in which people will be
involved, but the style and tone of those reactions are described by each individual’s
birth chart—and thus are personal and subjective, and beyond what can be
sketched here. What IS possible is to
have some of those transiting (and transitory) “situations” characterized. Some
months, you may experience some of the paragraphs and not others; you may
experience none of the abstracts for a given period of time, or you may observe
that others are having situations that closely match those described. While the wording I use may not be exactly
how you would phrase things, not only do I hope that you won’t miss the
reference, but that another viewpoint allows you to see things from a different
perspective. Please remember that what’s truly significant about Events is not
so much What Happens, but what the sequence shows you... about You and about
what you assume about yourself, others and this Universe in which we “find”
ourselves.

As many of us are watching Mars headed towards

Configurations
that can turn up on returns now include:
q
In late-Cancer into early Leo (which means, depending on
your age, your Pluto could be reacting,) there’s an alignment that starts with Vulcanus
in 25 Cancer and stretches to Hopi in 06 Leo.
So let’s talk about this, starting with Vulcanus. When Vulcanus is angular at a return chart
Ascendant, events can feel more potent.
You can have the sense that you HAVE TO do something. It may be that another is pressuring you; it
may be that other things are such that you feel an internal pressure to act and
react.
q
Vulcanus is conjunct Terpsichore and that suggests that
what you have to do is exercise (or dance!)
You may observe that another has an exercise compulsion; you may feel
that you have to “move your body;” you may be more aware of the chi or subtle energies in your body or
limbs. You may also notice a person who
has a very magnetic or charismatic “aura.”
There’s just “something” strong and perhaps ineffably so about
them. Their (Terpsichore) body language
can showcase a confidence or strength.
q
Next in the line up is Ophelia, so you know to expect
over-reactions and counter-productive reactions. When people are (Vulcanus) “forced” or pressured, they can
over-react. Likewise, when a person has
an internal (Vulcanus) compulsion, they can go too far—and do themselves no
favor. Be on the watch for how this
ties into exercise.
q
Following Ophelia is Nemesis. Can someone become overly dramatic when they think they’re being
blamed??? You betcha’! Can someone go overboard pointing fingers or
trying to determine the cause of a problem?
Fer sure! Can someone think that
The Problem is Pressure or feeling forced to do something? Yes again.
q
After Nemesis is Atlantis. Mind you, someone can (Ophelia) over-react because their sense of
(Nemesis) the problem causes them to have a (Atlantis) very negative sense of
what’s going to happen.
q
You may find that there is (Vulcanus) pressure on someone
to (Atlantis) divulge, confess or admit to things they’d rather keep
private. If your Pluto is here, your
need for control can cause you to press others to confide. Your Pluto carries its own dramatic take on
events now, so remember that the Atlantis input can cause you to expect
negative results. Also keep in mind
that another person can use Atlantis to “warn” you of things… and that may set
your Pluto up for obsessing! If another
is (Vulcanus-Atlantis) pressing to get information about you—information that
you don’t want to divulge, your Pluto can get extra defensive.
q
In the chart I’m using, transiting Atlantis is conjunct
Niobe. Among the possibilities here is
that one finds out previously unknown things and that slams the pride. The revelation may also bring sorrow through
children. Be on the look out for that
person who builds their ego on the “fact” that they know things others don’t
know. They have “inside knowledge”
(\Poseidon-A, Rx: and they aren’t sure just how they got that information. It’s possible for the Poseidon energy to
bring these ideas through film or the media.)
q
Next is good old Sphinx, and you know what that means:
questions, missing information, and wondering.
So: Vulcanus-Sphinx: powerful questions; feeling pressure—as though you
HAVE TO know—and yet you don’t.
Sphinx-Ophelia: “Why is that person reacting like that?” You’ll also notice that when some folks
don’t have all the answers, they turn into Drama Queens. Sphinx-Nemesis: What’s the matter? Who
made the mistake? What caused this
problem? Who comes undone when they
have to fly by the seat of their pants without firm answers? Sphinx-Atlantis: When ya’ don’t know, don’t assume the worst! Because there is missing information,
someone may try to (Vulcanus) coerce someone into (Atlantis) spilling the
beans.
q
Finally, the asteroid, Hopi, is also angular with these
others. So… the (Nemesis) problem may
have to do with (Hopi) prejudice or racial or ethnic identity. Others may get (Ophelia) hyper if they feel
their (Hopi) personal boundaries are being messed with. Sphinx-Hopi: There can be questions about
racial or ethnic identity or about whether something constitutes a kind of
attack.
q
At the (Tropical) MC of this chart, Asclepius, Astraea
and Amor are angular. Of course, the
medical asteroid, Asclepius, indicates health issues… and those can deal with
the (Astraea) eyes or the (Amor) heart.
You can deal with others who are slow to recover from an illness; you
may realize that interpersonal boundaries can be tested by the presence of an
illness. You can also observe that
sometimes it’s an illness that is the teacher of unconditional love.
q
Zeus, Siva and Nostalgia (all transiting) are in parans
opposition at the IC of this chart.
There can be medical concerns about the blood pressure, pulse or the
presence of an untoward level of inflammation.
You can be more aware of seasonal ailments; you may note a smidge of
self-destructive behavior as part of a medical condition. You will also have reminders of wars or
military action that focuses on places such as Vietnam, Asia or The Middle
East. This means too that you can hear
of health problems that trace to military action. (Again, remember—if these are your angles—that the presence of
the angular Poseidon can mean that much in the chart is sometimes brought to
you through films or other media.)
q
Speaking of the asteroid, Poseidon, at the DSC, it occurs
with Circe and Zeus-A. Others may
discuss seeking assistance or help in their Faith or beliefs; the phrase, “With
the help of God” can occur. The
Circe-Zeus can bring assistance with making plans, getting organized or bring a
plan into realization. The
Poseidon-Zeus can show up as models or samples, as proof of one’s beliefs, as
ardent belief, and as interest in the morality of military action.
q
Cupido-A, Rx (transit) also occurs at this angle. As it teams with other things, you: may
notice someone with a (Zeus-A) sunburn or ruddy complexion. You may see that another has a rash or that
their anger is readily (and red-ily) apparent.
You may hear something about cosmetic schools or be especially impressed
with a face you see on television. The
face of a soldier or fireman may stay with you for a while. You may also (given your radix Orpheus at
this angle) pay more attention to the face of a singer or musician or find that
you are thinking of the face of someone who has died.
q
Because your Icarus is angular, you will have to consider
that (Atlantis) a sense of impending doom can impel rapid response, and having
someone invade your privacy can cause you to race for the nearest exit.
q
Just this one note about “your” Sidereal return: with Apollo, Eros and Hygiea angular, you
can realize that someone with a heart condition is kinda’ “pushing their
luck.” Perhaps they are evaluating the
risks; perhaps they are not seeing the situation for what it is (in part
because they’re something of a slow learner!)
q
Of course there’s lots more goin’ on, but hopefully, this
gets ya’ thinkin’ and taking notes about your lunar returns and those
all-important angular factors. For
examples of return chart delineation, see the texts, The Orders of Light, Architects
of Time, and Angles and Prediction.

Many thanx to those of you who write to comment on the
usefulness of this predictive information and who call to confirm delineations
and techniques in Tools of the Trade. I appreciate you! I’m so glad that it helps you reframe and clarify what’s
happening to/for you. I get nearly as
tickled as you do when you realize that it’s YOUR chart that I’ve used. And it
seems that it’s effectively awakening more and more interest in ASTEROIDS and
the TNPs (…not, of course, that THAT was the intention…J!)
If you’d like me to use YOUR chart for
some of the “current predictions” notes, just email your birth data. But let me
explain something about what happens when you send your birthdata to be used
(anonymously) in Current Predictions. I
always admit to having ulterior motives (‘bout most anything to do with
astrology anyway!) but when I offer to use YOUR chart for these abbreviated
remarks, that’s especially true. When
people send me their data, they all & always ask: “How will I know when
it’s my chart you’re using?” My answer to that is two-fold and here’s
where the ulterior motives come in: you’ll know because the discussion relates
to what’s happening in your life, but—to really be sure, you’ll set up your
lunar returns (with angulars established by the return chart angles) and the
practice of doing that will build a passion for the charts, the asteroids and
TNPs, and the insights! (Pretty sneaky,
huh?)
Ω
Thanx to CM who has pointed out to me that nowhere on this site does
it mention that I am a professional astrologer who accepts new clients for both
natal consultations and predictive work.
Please email for information.

In re the
attitude that the 8 transneptunians aren’t “real:” we all hear the complaint
about using “the hypothetical points” because THEY AREN’T REALLY THERE, THEY
AREN’T REALLY “UP IN THE SKY.” Well,
pardon me for pointing this out, but neither are progressions or
directions...and your angles, Vertex and Equatorial Ascendant are intersections
of Great Circles; they have neither density nor mass, and let’s not even get
into house cusps! If you work with the
TNPs, every chart will prove their value.
