CosmiTec's Love Letter, Issue #190 -- The Natal Sun-Neptune Oppositions September 21, 2020 |
| Dear The planetary configurations are heating up more and more and one of the heavy midpoints between outer planets that was active in August 2020 becomes active again this October, suggesting a very turbulent and explosive month in many ways. ******************************************** Table of ContentsOur regular features

Love Forecasts for October 2020(slowly hover over a paragraph with the mouse and wait a second for additional astrological information)Click here to download the October 2020 calendar in pdf format. In general and on a mundane level, events are likely to happen around October 1-2, 9, 16, 22 and/or 29. During this month of October, the following planetary configurations will affect some birthdays in particular:
Try not to initiate any major projects on these dark, unfortunate, chaotic and empty days (no proposals, no marriages, no changes of residence,...) because things may not go as planned or wished. In the 45° dial, there is a midpoint configuration that becomes exact (again) and that will set the background of this month. In the 1st half of the month, Pluto is exactly at the Jupiter/Saturn and Uranus/Chiron midpoints (PL = JU/SA = UR/CH). This midpoint configuration or planetary picture is already working out because of the orb but when it's exact, its meaning will be felt more powerfully. The PL = JU/SA midpoint has been exact in August 2020 too and will thus repeat. Additionally, Pluto is now also in the Uranus/Chiron midpoint (PL = UR/CH) adding a lot of turbulent energy. This PL = JU/SA = UR/CH midpoint configuration suggests, among others: to steadily but slowly reach your goals during turbulent changes, a major life event with an emotional impact and shock marking a period of no return or way back at all, to face enforced or imposed restrictions, the sudden enforced separation and breaking up, the tremendous perseverance to overcome brutal changes, to try to control a situation and/or upheaval and/or clashes, the reversal of plans previously made, the extreme changes in lifestyle because of sudden changes of course, the huge storm, blast and/or destruction of buildings and/or severe damage to buildings. If you are born around January 13, February 27, April 12, May 29, July 15, August 31, October 16 or November 29, this midpoint configuration may affect you more personally too. The Full Moon period of October 1 is accompanied by Venus entering Virgo, the sign of its fall, around October 2. Love is more easily met at the workplace or among co-workers. You tend to be connected with neat and/or good-looking people. In Virgo, Venus feels rather timid and hesitant, preferring not to be in the spotlight. Hence, some love's sorrow may result. Around October 4, heavy and intense Pluto stations and turns direct at 22° Capricorn. Whenever Pluto stations, expect something to come to the surface, some disclosure, some revelations, something that took some time to dig up... Because of the station in the earth sign Capricorn (representing the surface of the earth, the mask or crust), some natural disasters that involve the earth (and its crust) may happen too (like earthquakes, mining disasters, land slides, volcanic issues etc.). Stationing Pluto increases the intensity and force of whatever happens and may result in fierce storms as well, causing damage here and there. Pluto represents death also and when Pluto stations, it may mark the death of some celebrity. At 22° Capricorn, a degree of moving fast forward and exposure, whatever happens will come unexpectedly and evolve lightning fast, adding to the likelihood of a severe storm moving fast or some wildfire or a blast. Every minute counts now. Some of you might have to fight your way through this intense period to keep alive. Because all the planets/bodies that are involved in this planetary configuration are slow-moving, this configuration will last at least the whole month. So, beware and take care. Mercury at 9° Scorpio opposes Uranus at 9° Taurus around October 7, which is the classic combo of breaking (Uranus) news (Mercury). Expect some emergencies, changes of course, sudden changes of opinion and unexpected U-turns to be taken. Communication and/or transportation may be interrupted as oppositions to Uranus are always breaking up, unsettling, disruptive, causing a stir. Following astrometeorology, whenever Mercury and Uranus are in contact, severe wind and even storms tend to be part of the current daily events. Also, there are clouds in the sky, followed by sunny spells later on. Around October 9, fiery Mars at 22° Aries squares (stationing) Pluto at 22° Capricorn adding to the intensity of the current events. Power outages may occur here and there and this violent and intense combo may bring quite some damage. Also, disagreements, legal issues/battles, general dissatisfaction, assaults etc. may happen. Keep your head cool! Around October 11, the Sun at 18° Libra squares Jupiter at 18° Capricorn. This waning square, in which Jupiter is weak (in the sign of its fall), points to struggle with issues of "lack" or restrictions, with limitations that you may want to get rid off. There is less optimism and whatever hopes, ideals and dreams (Jupiter) there can be, blocking Capricorn prohibits living them to the full (or only in a restricted way). Around the same day of October 11, there are sunny spells, followed by clouds. The Sun at 21° Libra opposes retrograde Mars at 21° Aries around October 13-14 while Mercury stations at 11° Scorpio and turns retrograde. Stationing Mercury periods are especially felt by Geminis and Virgos or Gemini and Virgo Ascendants as things don't go as they wished for. Geminis and Virgos don't feel too well around the station and better keep a low profile. It's best not to sign any contract as it's likely things will have to be re-considered, re-tracted, re-negotiated afterwards. Following mundane astrology, stationing Mercury often coincides with strikes, manifestations and protests. The Sun-Mars opposition is currently part of a T-square in which Jupiter is the apex planet. This T-square indicates there is some opposition and action noticeable that involve the feeling or sense of the aforementioned "lack." This T-square combined with stationing Mercury reinforce the meaning that current activities are especially directed towards some "lack" and/or restrictions. Around October 15, the Sun at 22° Libra squares Pluto at 22° Capricorn, triggering the aforementioned PL = JU/SA midpoint. There is intensity noticeable and there may be damage to or destruction of buildings here and there, for whatever reason. If you are born around January 16, February 14, March 15, April 14-15, May 15-16, June 16, July 17, August 17-18, September 17-18, October 18, November 17 or December 16-17, you may be tenacious, have resilience and face some profound and extreme changes in your lifestyle. There is no way back. The October 16 New Moon at 23° Libra is actually a SuperMoon and squares both Saturn and Pluto, suggesting a period of rigid and enforced control, restrictions, financial issues (even bankruptcy). Following astrometeorology, this period tends to become stormy, full of dark clouds. Around October 18, the Sun at 25° Libra squares Saturn at 25° Capricorn while Venus at 18° Virgo opposes Neptune at 18° Pisces. There are unfulfilled longings, sadness and/or you miss a beloved one. The waning Sun-Saturn square is tenacious but because restrictive and blocking Saturn is stronger and more powerful in its own sign, this period seems not to bring any progress at all. So, whatever you do may not work out properly just now as the obstructive influences currently prevail. There is sadness and you may feel creative self-expression is at a low. Between October 18-22, Mars at 19° Aries squares Jupiter at 19° Capricorn. This aspect repeats its early August 2020 position during which it was at the exact same degrees. Chances are the same theme will now repeat one way or the other. If you remember what happened then (like the Beirut blast), you may have a feel what is to be expected... 19° in cardinal signs have a strong explosive element (a blinding light) and this degree area also represents mining (underground) activities. In and on itself, the fiery Mars-Jupiter square is explosive enough to cause violent events, especially because Mars is very strong in its own sign Aries and very close to the earth. Additionally, around October 19-20, Mercury at 9° Scorpio opposes Uranus at 9° Taurus for the 2nd time this month (at the same degrees as well). This aspect of "breaking news" will, again, present emergencies, changes of course, sudden changes of opinion and unexpected U-turns to be taken with some possible disruptions in matters of transportation and/or communication. Around the same day of October 19-20 there are clouds in the sky, followed by sunny spells. Around October 21-22, Venus at 22° Virgo squares the Lunar Nodes, suggesting you're longing to be alone or may encounter issues connecting with others, especially beloved ones. Also, there can be financial issues (even financial blackmail) popping up. The Sun enters investigative Scorpio around the October 22-23 First Quarter Moon which happens at 0° Aquarius, the degree of the U-turn, emergencies and shocking experiences. This intense transit may indicate emergencies and stormy or explosive events. There can be collapses, power outages, damage to buildings etc. Around October 23-24 the day starts with sunny spells, followed by clouds in the sky. Around October 25 there is nervous tension and rethinking something is necessary. This is a period of resistance, rebellion, separation as well as enforced, imposed or mandatory travel or trips. Beware of traffic and/or transportation accidents also. There can be internet outages/issues, as well as issues with electronics/electricity. If you are born around January 23, March 7, April 22, June 7, July 24-25, September 9, October 25 or December 9, you may experience these influences most. Around October 27-28 retrograde Mercury re-enters Libra while Venus enters Libra as well. While Venus enters Libra through the front door at 0°, retrograde Mercury enters the same sign through the back door at 29°, so to speak. There are negotiations going on and it's time to gather and try to find some agreement. The October 31 Full Moon (another SuperMoon) at 8° Taurus is EXACTLY conjunct disruptive and explosive Uranus and conjunct the Fixed Star Schedar (or Schedir), bringing exposure and leaving a big impression. Full Moons create awareness and exposure, get or blow things out into the open, and this is the more so with this SuperMoon aspecting shocking Uranus, also called the Great Awakener. Whenever Uranus aspects a powerful Lunation, it creates a Big Bang that is supposed to awaken us all. The SuperMoon in itself may indicate extreme weather here and there. Love Quotes of the MonthThe real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.-- Marilyn Monroe -- I think the perfection of love is that it is not perfect. -- Taylor Swift -- Some love stories aren't epic novels. Some are short stories. But that doesn't make them any less filled with love. -- Carrie Bradshaw -- We loved with a love that was more than love. -- Edgar Allan Poe -- There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart. -- Jane Austen -- Love is something sent from heaven to worry the hell out of you. -- Dolly Parton -- What's New on Our Web Site?There are a couple of updates to mention:
The majority of visitors browse our website on smartphones while our website is still best viewed on tablets, notebooks, laptops or desktops. This makes for some decisions to be made because of the heavy workload involved when revamping the look. We are not planning to change the light yellow background anyway because white backgrounds are too hard to the eyes, especially when looking at pages at night or in darker areas and the light yellow is still one of the better options. We will also take into account that our website should be accessible to (visually) impaired people as much as possible as well. It's possible the transition will go gradually because we are thinking to first of all make sure the website is more dynamic to fit properly whatever device you use. The Natal Sun-Neptune OppositionsIn our ongoing series of oppositions to the Sun in the natal chart, we present our empirical research results pertaining to the natal Sun-Neptune oppositions.Thanks to the Swiss Astrodatabank we were able to research the natal Sun-Neptune oppositions of many people. We used a small orb of 3° so to get the essence of the aspect without interference of possible other aspects. As usual, our research is divided into male and female horoscopes. On demand, we also include some of the names of people who have a certain prominent trait. Natal Sun-Neptune oppositions in female charts Though there were not enough data to find a lot, the following two characteristics jumped out. On average, lots of women with a tight Sun-Neptune opposition in the natal chart experienced (a) traumatic childhood event(s) (Amanda Gene Dulmaine, Roswitha, Amelie Morelle, Rachel Esther Sylvia). Chances are this aspect in a female chart increases the odds of being victimized (Bernadette Federici, Robin Kaplan, Luz del Fuego, Amelie Morelle). Natal Sun-Neptune oppositions in male charts On average, men with a tight Sun-Neptune opposition tend to experience psychotic episodes (Gerard de Nerval, Richard Rosenthal, Sean Richard Sellers, Bernard Bettle). They are often passionately involved in music (Mike Barson, Leon Boellmann, Roger Wagner, Paul Dukas, Peter Jr. Gay, Michael A. Welsh, Brendan Hogan, Mike Love, Stephen Pender). A tight Sun-Neptune opposition in a male natal chart is often indicative of at least one lasting marriage (Lloyd Bridges, Jeff Hornacek, Gill Paquet, Micajah Speakman). On average, men with such an aspect have at least one son (Richard Rosenthal, Carlo Petrini, Gill Paquet, Lloyd Bridges). They are very religious/philosophical people (Carlo Maria Martini, Miguel de Unamuno y Jugo, Micajah Speakman, Pope Alexander VII). If you want to take a look at our back-issues, click here!
