Downgraded!

S&P downgrades U.S. credit rating By Charles Riley @CNNMoney August 6, 2011: 8:13 PM ETNEW YORK (CNNMoney) – Credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s on Friday downgraded the credit rating of the United States, stripping the world’s largest economy of its prized AAA status. more

Significant events appear in a number of ways in an astrology chart, repeating the same themes. (See Double Tragedy in Norway)

One of the most important benefits of being aware of current energies is the opportunity to face the difficulties internally. Just like in an individual’s chart, challenges that are not faced internally manifest physically in the outer world.

This is a truly challenging time for the United States and things are not going to return to the way they once were.

  • Transit: Saturn Return and Pluto opposite Jupiter/Venus (See

    USA Debt Crisis)

  • Solar Return:
    • There is a powerful 4 planet configuration in this year’s Solar Return, situated on the all-important angles… Pluto opposite Venus, Square Saturn, Square Uranus. This shows a year of dramatic, life-changing events and surprises. There is an emphasis on financial issues and values but virtually everything will be affected.
    • Solar Return Ascendant is 0 degrees Libra, the same degree and sign of the mid-heaven in the natal chart. This again signifies the importance of this year, particularly USA’s place in the world and it’s reputation.
    • The Sun is very important in a Solar Return and, in this case, has only a square to Saturn meaning that the efforts of the president and the government will continue to be stymied.

  • Secondary Progression:
    • The points in a Secondary Progression chart move very slowly with the exception of the Moon which acts like a pointer to signify which part of the chart is particularly active. The Secondary Progressed Moon is 5 Libra so it moves right in to also square Jupiter/Venus.

  • Solar Arc:
    • Pluto in the Solar Arc chart is now the same degree as Neptune in the natal chart. Ideals and beliefs are transformed through dramatic events.
    • Pluto in the Solar Arc chart is also now squaring Mars in the natal chart which indicates anger and possible violence.
    • This blending of Mars, Pluto and Neptune shows a dramatic need for change but Neptune confuses and disguises. Ego issues seem so important but the discourse has to be lifted above personal concerns or nothing can be resolved and the destructive possibilities inherent in the current energies will explode.

    Astrology of an Address ~ Dayel Kirk

    July 8, 2009

    Dayel Kirk has a fun freebie on her site, The Reluctant Astrologer. She gives you the astrology of your address. She takes only the number from your address (no street name) and assigns it to the 360 degree zodiac. If you live in an apartment, only the apartment number is used, not the street number.

    If you are a numerologist, you will find using the zodiac degree a very interesting addition to your number meanings.

    My address number corresponds with 14 Pisces. Dayel describes this as:

    A Pisces address is a place for rest or escape, relaxation, regeneration, creative expression, spiritual pursuits or solitude.

    At this address, I have cared for elderly parents, started a small theatre and this blog, studied various religious texts, delved into spirituality, and found a great deal of solitude. It’s much more relaxing than my previous address (perhaps too much so) and has recently been certified as a wildlife habitat.

    Thanks, Dayel! Please visit The Reluctant Astrologer to get the astrology of your address, along with some other freebies and some excellent posts on current astrological trends and personalities.
