Autumnal Equinox-September 22nd-Washington, D.C.

This is a special time for communication and learning signified by the grand air trine on the chart for Washington,D.C. The sign of Gemini is on the ascendant and it is the sign associated with communication. It’s ruler is mercury and he is right on the sun in Libra so diplomatic communication will be happening particularly with groups since mars is there in Aquarius. There will definitely be shake ups too as Saturn is squaring the Sun and Mercury so there will be consequences if the communication is not truthful and responsible. Uranus, the planet that brings unexpected changes, is squaring the Mars and inconjuncting the Sun-Mercury so there will probably be unexpected revelations in the congressional hearings and in the Mueller investigation. With the moon in Pisces squaring the ascendant it seems that compassion may interfere with the government having a smooth confirmation of Kavanaugh.

In ones’ personal life, it is a good time for communication as long as it’s truthful and compassionate. It is an excellent time for writing projects especially for people born in the 1st 10 days of the air signs: Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. For people born in the early days of the earth signs: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn it is a time to make changes in one’s life in a carefully planned manner although there will probably be a surprise element to those changes. People born in the water signs, particularly in the middle degrees can have positive spiritual development and for musicians with planets in water signs this can be a very creative time.
