The Sky Now - An Astrology Blog (September 2)

In the Major Arcana of the Tarot The Fool represents the beginning of the journey, the naive innocent in search of experience in the world.  The risk inherent in the energies of the current Mars/Neptune opposition, which will be strong for the next 48 hours, is that we be may be too naive now. Circumstance will certainly play a stronger than usual role in our life now.  The odd and the unusual will appear before us and can distract and even divert us from our path.  There is nothing wrong with stopping to smell the roses and in fact that slowing down to consider and explore is likely the best use of these energies. However do be careful what or whom you invite into your life now.  Perception is foggy and perspective off with this planetary opposition. Take care to not be seduced by overly charming pretenders now.  Do not allow yourself to be taken advantage of in any way. Take great care in what commitments you make or what contacts you sign.  Better yet, don't make or sign any now. Turn your focus inward. Apply a spiritual filter and consider the nature of your journey in this life.  Ask yourself if there is something more authentic out there for you.
