I don't try to follow the precise clockwork of newer astrology, which seems sort of reductive. The old Persian astronomers had a broader idea, which was picked up by the west in the 1400s then partly abandoned. The oppositions and conjunctions, along with the unpredictable shapes of the sun's stormy moods, shape the electromagnetic field that we swim in. Most animals, and especially bacteria, have definite ways of sensing the field. They know when an earthquake is coming because the field changes its shape, and they undoubtedly sense the sun's moods as well. We're animals (plus a lot of bacteria in the gut), so our moods are shaped by the field as well whether we have specific senses or not. The gut bacteria may in fact BE our sensor, a sort of permanent prosthetic.

Wait it out. That Martian energy will return. With gusto, I suspect.
We have one wild-ass ride ahead of us. I no longer have any faith at all in my predictions. But I stand by that one.
