DAILY ASTROLOGY IN FILM: SEPTEMBER 23-24

MOON IN CANCER from 3:33am EDT on Friday Sept. 23 until Saturday Sept. 24 at 8:42pm. The Moon is in its own sign during this period, so we have a pure Lunar archetypal period for these two days. The Feminine Principle reigns now as the women in our lives are front and center. This is a time for nurturing others and ourselves in every imaginable way: making and eating the best food we can create, making sure others feel like they belong to the group - being inclusive, honoring our families, especially our Mothers...making our homes feel like...home, generally taking care of those around us. We can feel particularly subjective now, taking things more personally than usual. We may feel more sensitive and express our emotions more readily at this time. We may prefer to stay home than going out and being social.

LAST ASPECT OF MOON: Moon Square Uranus in Aries at 8:42pm EDT on Saturday September 24. Actions initiated during this Moon period will tend to have a CHALLENGING result. The women in our lives are likely to feel a bit hyper-sensitive and feisty now and we may witness some unexpected eruptions of emotions. We may have unwanted surprises at home that push us to our limits. Mother may want something for or from us that we don't particularly want to receive or offer. Mercury's forward direction is in its last intense days of adjustment before settling into its normal rhythm again, so don't be surprised if schedules, communication and travel are the sources for these disruptions. Make sure your communications are clear and that others understand your meaning completely. Check and double check your plans, timing and vehicles. Make sure your cell phones are charged!   
  
SCENE OF THE DAY: Freaky Friday, 2003; Director: Mark Waters. Lightening it up a little for today's post, this scene featuring Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan (at her best), reflects a classic Mother/Daughter meltdown. It's a perfect last-days-of Mercury-turning-direct example of confusion and Uranian upsets. If you've never seen this comedy, check it out for some great family entertainment.
