Friday, February 27, 2015, 10 Thargelion, no particular dedication in the Athenian calendar, in Roman rites dedicated to Mars, one of the days when an Equirria, a horse race, was held in his honor, first Mardi Gras celebration held in New Orleans 1827, anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s Cooper Union speech 1860, of the Reichstag fire 1933, end of 1st Gulf War 1991, birthday of Emperor Constantine 272 AD, 10th night of the Waxing Moon, starting Void of Course in Gemini, then entering Cancer 7:50 A.M., overseen by the the 34th Decan, Acha, ruled by Saturn, starting in the 7th Mansion of the Moon, Al Dhira/Aldirah, good for success when contending against authority figures, good for acts promoting gain, love, comfort, then entering the 8th Mansion of the Moon, Al Nathra/Ahaathra, governing positive aspects of love and happiness, just before 8:00 A.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Venus at 6:34 A.M., and last 55.75 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with Mars at 5:43 P.M., lasting 64.25 minutes, Sun in Pisces Mercury in Aquarius, Venus in Aries, Mars in Aries, Jupiter retrograde in Leo, Saturn in Sagittarius. Mars is Square the Moon early in the morning, which can make us less than we can be; a certain lassitude sets in, turning us all into teenagers laying on their beds, tuned out and disinclinded to engage. At least acting like irritable sloths allows our capacity to daydream to find an effective lens after 10:00 P.M., when the Cancer Moon is trine Neptune. Should you find the energy to rouse yourself from your bed of lassitude, you might find the energy to do more than a half-assed pass at some love/affection work.
