August 9, 2021 : Luna enters Virgo - the Wheel of Fortune spins your way today
welcome to episode 50 in season six of kristo's astrology...
here's my reading of the Zeitgeist for Monday, August 9th, 2021
**all times reported here are in UTC-0 (Universal Coordinated Time) or GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)... please adjust according to your own Time Zone... if you're not sure about the time zone difference, you can find that here: Time Zone Map
just a reminder: don't sweat it if the numbers or hours are confusing... I'm with you on that...
calculating the times for these transits requires simple arithmetic, which is something I have absolutely no intuition for…
just know that each of the planetary influences wax and wane over hours, days, and sometimes months or years...!
let your Intuition own the changes, and so whenever you observe a synchronicity that jibes with what you’ve heard from me…
perfect…! because it shows that YOU and YOUR Intuition are on the money...
just a reminder: episode 13 of the Hansel and Gretel Code is now out there in the wild...
In this episode we ask lots of tough questions, there’s an ominous knock on the door, and we all end up on Saturday Night Live...
I call this episode: We're Gonna Need a Bigger Boat...
....
Leo Sol (in his Square to Taurean Uranus) exactly BiQuintiles Piscean Neptune (in his Yod with Leo Mercury and Capricorn Pluto) @2:34 AM GMT / UTC-0
the bywords here are compassion and enthusiasm...
expect to feel particularly optimistic and hopeful today, despite what is sure to be a day with a very depressing sort of news cycle...
you're just not gonna believe everything you read or hear...
....
Luna heats up that Yod with a Quincunx to Neptune @2:42 AM
well, there it is...
the first bit of downer data...
you'll find that all the images involved have been doctored...
....
Luna re-intensifies the Yod as she Conjuncts Mercury @6:45 AM
expect social media to be overflowing with endless chatter...
all of it quoting and re-quoting — over-sharing and opining...
and all of it a cacophony of negativity...
....
Luna doubles down on all this with a Quincunx to Pluto @6:57 AM
this is simply fool s' gold...
expect to hear some really outrageous lies...
....
finally, Mercury puts the finishing touches on that Yod with an exact Quincunx to Pluto @ 8:03 AM
and this, is like Orwellian Newsspeak / double—speak
....
Virgo Mars (in his Square to the Gemini Dragon's Head, and Quincunx to Aquarian Saturn) exactly BiQuintiles Aries Chiron @11:56 AM
phew...!
finally, some order and clarity amidst the craziness...
this is an astrologic news fast imposed by Psyche...
....
Luna Opposes unaspected Aquarian Jupiter @1:23 PM, and goes Void of Course for 2 hours and 33 minutes
lo and behold, someone actually clarifies the situation...
....
Luna enters Virgo @3:56 PM, and BiQuintiles Pluto (in his waxing Trine to Virgo Venus) @5:47 PM
see, your optimism held...
and now you know the secret to staying sane (and hopeful) in the midst of the nastiness of the current Zeitgeist...
the simple Sufi saying, best exemplified by the Tarot Wheel of Fortune: This, too shall pass...

and here’s another fairytale flash:
well Episode 13 of the Hansel and Gretel Code is now out there in the wild...
I call this episode: We're Gonna Need a Bigger Boat, and it takes us deeper into the third sentence of the fairytale with our woodcutter having a full-blown panic attack... Why not come on along for the ride...?
you can find transcripts and links for each episode on the website at betweenthelines.xyz, or just look for the link to the Hansel and Gretel Code in the menu at the top of every page on kristo.com...
and just as a reminder, I'm giving away pdf copies of the manuscript version... it's the text I'm using for the podcast...
you'll want a copy so you can follow along with me and even work on your own interpretation...
it's the oldest complete version of the original Hansel and Gretel story out there, and my own translation of it into English was the only available until just about a year ago...
just sayin'
hit the talk to me link on the website or right here talk to me... and ask for your free copy... easy peasy...
.....
no matter what anybody has already told you about Hansel and Gretel, get ready to be surprised...
this podcast is gonna take you on a rollercoaster of psychological depths and heights — not to mention informative twists and turns — all of them designed to entertain the hell out of you…
you can find out all about it on the website betweenthelines.xyz, or on whatever podcast app that floats your boat…
and please take a listen to my art podcast, kristo.art it’s my take on art and art appreciation that aims to take the snoot and attitude out of museum and gallery going...
it actually let's you own the damn place...
.....
okay, well, that's it for today... thanks for listening... have a great day, and I'll see you tomorrow...
Alrighty then... ciao a tutti...

synchronicity and the horoscope...
here's how to use the horoscope to train your own intuition:
don’t think of it as predictive news... use it as an exercise — especially after the moment has passed...
look for things that sound like descriptions of events from your day — uncannily direct is great, but oddly familiar is even better... astrology is all metaphor, you know?
as your intuition grows, you’ll learn to trust it more and more — and that’s when you’ll start appreciating the synchronicities for what they really are: affirmations from Psyche telling you that you’re on the right track...
then, like Hansel and Gretel’s breadcrumbs, all you have to do is see where they lead....
