Actually, some other planets do have rings. Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune have rings, although they are fainter than the rings around Saturn.

Mercury is retrograde from the sign of Libra and stations direct in Virgo; which is one of the signs that mercury rules, the other being Gemini. This retrograde will be a precursor of events to come and our intuitive guide for the major shift happening October 29th when Saturn moves into Libra.

(An event that happens ever 28 years)

Astrology is a complex subject and one of the secrets to learn astrology and become an excellent astrologer is to interpret each retrograde separately with the astrology chart for the time of the retrograde. September 7th at 12:45am EDT Mercury stations and retrogrades; cast an astrology chart for this time for where you are living or use the location of the capitol for the country you live in.

The chart placed in Washington DC gives the ascendant zero degrees of Cancer. This is a very sensitive degree in astrology. Pluto is at 0 degrees Capricorn conjunct the 7th house cusp, the line of other people. Further Mercury is square Mars in the first house indicating aggressive communication.

The communication of Mercury in Libra want to be nice and fair, and Mars in Cancer can be passive aggressive, so expect mixed signal and messages. When you feel uncomfortable or unsure of what someone is saying dig deeper to be very clear about what is expected. Mercury is moving from the sign of Libra to conjunct Saturn in Virgo. This signature is implying there will be a collective rethinking on serious issues in your personal life as well as rethinking issues in the government roles and work policies. It is indicating problems in Washington DC for the health care reform bill.

On a personal level it is important to ask: Where in your life do you side step issues because you want everything to be fine with no problems versus getting real about a problem and working hard at it?  Are you afraid of saying the truth for fear of not looking good? Critical thinking is necessary to understand the nature of your relationships and to have people in your life that are right for you.

There are action steps to take for this Mercury retrograde.  First and foremost is to catch up on loose ends, projects or promises that will help you achieve the goals you have. Recommit to personal health goals. Think about how you communicate with people you are in partnerships with. What is working in those partnerships and what is not quite right?

How can you have partnerships that are fair and balanced? Do you have that balance in your life? Are you fair to yourself when you talk to yourself and your mind is assessing all that you have done, want to do, and think you are supposed to do?

Astrology gives us another perspective on managing our lives productively. You don’t need to be an astrologer to understand these ancient and time tested principles of stepping back, taking a deep breath, and allowing time to catch up with your busy life.

This mercury retrograde I challenge you to use these three weeks to get caught up in all areas of your life that have loose ends. Astrology will help you stay on track with your spiritual development and help you in unfolding your greatest talents to have the life you were meant to life. 

A funny thing happened on the way to the 2nd tee yesterday. It was a beautiful sunny Sunday, and my compatriots and I were sharing a foursome of Partagas #10′s, on our way down the course, and my phone chimed a web alert: My horoscope was in. It’s generally poor etiquette to pull out the cell phone on the links, but what the hell, right?

Then it hit me. Astrology recognizes 9 planets. And the course has 9 holes. Hmm. Profound? Cosmic? Surely there’s no such thing as coincidence.

Or maybe I’m just bipolar.

In any event, while my buddies were blah-blah-ing about divorce war stories and sharing battle scars, I formulated the prime strategy of astrological golf. (If this works, I’m getting my own show on ESPN. Fingers crossed.)

Hole 1: The Sun

Life, like golf, starts with self-awareness. The Sun is the spirit that enlightens. And I pretty much know by the end of the first hole how my day’s going to go… or not.

Hole 2: The Moon

Once you have awareness, you want to be aware of something. Being aware only of yourself, while quite “zen” and chic, is also pretty boring. We want experience! As the Sun is the light, the Moon is the reflector. What you learned on the first hole is beamed, reflected and broadcast down the fairway. (For better or worse, so consider the “experience” of quitting while you’re behind.)

Hole 3: Mercury

The god of communication, Hermes to the Greeks, Mercury to the Romans, represents the moment when the cigar hits its sweet spot, and the words begin to flow–many of them comprised of four letters. But Mercury also creates the roads, around the dog leg to Hole 4. Press on. And if you have little fairy wings on your Nike’s, all the better.

Hole 4: Venus

The goddess of love hovers over the fourth hole. And if you’ve had the pleasure of playing Cypress Point, you know this to be true. “As below, so above,” say the astrologers. And the pleasant consummation of love, on or off the course, is what Venus–and tee 4–are all about.

Hole 5: Mars

If Venus lives at Cypress Point, Pine Valley is the realm of Mars. The bad boy. The god of war, aggression and sex. Mars was porn before porn was cool. Halfway home, and time to get rowdy. Mars is smiling his horny little smirk.

Hole 6: Jupiter

Jovial Jupiter (two forms of the same Latin word, by the way) says, “You guys have turned this playground into a battlefield. Can’t we all just get along?” No. This is serious golf. Grow up, you pansy (I mean Jupiter, King of the Gods). On to the 7th tee, none to soon.

Hole 7: Saturn

The Grandpa of the gods, old Chronos himself. Like Archie Bunker, crotchety Saturn seems always to ask, “Why? Why? Why?” Much like me by the seventh hole. Cigar is gone. 19th hole couldn’t come faster. And my score tanked three holes ago.

Hole 8: Uranus

The Awakener, “Ouranos” means “sky” in Greek, and that’s where Uranus rules. Also a bit of the rebel–actually, a lot of the rebel–Uranus says, “Two to go. Get it and get out, while you’ve still got your balls in your bag.” (Uranus is also pun-master of the gods, apparently.)

Hole 9: Neptune

The Lord of Dreams. Neptune uses his watery vision–though, hopefully you’re not crying at this point–to dream of the Best Day of Golf in Your Pathetic Life. Score? What score? Oh, that score! Sure, it was awesome. (Trust me.) Can’t wait to play the back nine.

And that, in short, is the cosmic correspondence you probably suspected, but never were able to put your finger on. As below, so above. As in the sky, so on the links.

Next time: Fortune Cookies and the key to a birdie every hole.

The astrological planets in astrology are not the same as the astronomy definitions that defines planets yet for simplicity when an astrologer is talking about the planets in your chart they are referring to the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The Sun is a star, the Moon is a satellite of the Earth and Pluto has been demoted to the status of a dwarf planet. The meanings of astrological planets are derived from legends and myths that have survived and evolved over thousands of years. The planets are symbolic representations of different parts of our psychological makeup.

The Sun is the center of the solar system and is given much weight when interpreting personality in the chart. Sun sign astrology is very popular and the majority of people know their sun sign. The sun will represent a good portion of what you will do or strive to do in your life. It will also show your natural inclinations for obtaining what you want. For example when your Sun is in Aries when you want something you will just go for it; while if your Sun is in Capricorn you would ponder the pros and cons, what might happen or might not happen and plot a course to achieve what you want.

The main astrological meaning of the Moon is emotions. The moon represents how we respond to the world. It symbolized your early conditioning from family and home environment. The moon is what you feel you need to have in order to be safe and understood. What sign and house your moon is in, and how it connects to other planets reveal your deepest most intimate secrets and emotional needs.

Mercury is called the winged messenger; the astrological meaning of Mercury is communication. What sign and house Mercury is in your chart will reveal how you communicate, whether it is easy for you to be self expressed or if you have difficulties and getting your thoughts and feelings across to others.

Venus is commonly referred to as the planet of love yet Venus is more about what we love. Venus is where we like to spend our time and money. If your Venus is in the sign of Taurus then you are attracted to quality products, if your Venus is in Sagittarius you would spend money on a great trip over having an art object that is nice to look at. Of course Venus is about relationships and the person we want to be with. Where Venus is in your astrology chart will tell you what type of relationship you will attract.

Mars is symbolic of the motivation force within. A strong Mars will express itself in life as someone who has a strong sex drive and competitive edge. Understanding the meaning of your Mars will inform you how easy or difficult it is to be motivated to accomplish your goals. A weak Mars can indicate you start a project or have a desire then lack the fuel to complete the journey.

Jupiter in astrology is considered the great benefic (with Venus as the lesser benefic) meaning that Jupiter brings good things. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, protection, opportunity, and blessings. The downside of Jupiter is we can feel so good about what is going on that we never think something bad will come out of what we are doing. One can be caught off guard thinking the lucky streak will never end when it does.

Saturn has the reputation in astrology that is not the most flattering. Saturn is the task master, hard work, struggle, effort, and not being able to get away with anything. It is true that under Saturn we reap what we sow. When you have a strong Saturn in your chart you can achieve and accomplish great things. You will have the capacity to stick with something and keep working through the obstacles. A weak Saturn can imply that you give up or do not even try.

The astrological clich� for Uranus is: expect the unexpected. Uranus is the planet that shakes life up in a different and new way. Wherever Uranus is in your chart you can expect to do things different. For example is Uranus is in your eleventh house of friendships then you can have an eclectic mix of friends and seek out friendships with people that have something different to bring to the table. Uranus is in the same sign for 7 years therefore the sign it is in will be the same for a large group of people but what house it is in and how it connects to your personal planets will make it unique to you.

The common astrological meaning of Neptune is creative, dreamy, spiritual seeker, escapist, and having the ability to see what you want to see and denying what you don’t want to accept. A strong Neptune in your astrology chart implies that you are a dreamer. You have the ability that great artist have and can see what could be; as an artist can look at a chunk of clay and not see clay but see a magnificent sculpture. In life that means you see the best in people. A strong Neptune in your chart can indicate that you are let down by people because of this.

Pluto may have been demoted to dwarf status but carries a big punch. Astrological meanings for Pluto include death and rebirth, and transformation. When you have a strong Pluto in your chart you will experience many changes throughout your lifetime. There will be many deaths and rebirths, metaphorically speaking. It is common to have different careers, marry more than once, and completely revamp your personality as you go through several transformations and transitions in life.

The meanings of astrological planets is a complex subject and each planet is worthy of several books to describe the depth of symbols and interpretations. The astrological planets in your astrology chart are a way for you to understand your life and how to navigate through difficult or complicated times. Understanding symbolic representations of the planets helps us to understand why we are the way we are and unravels the mysteries of life.
