August 24, 2021 : Luna enters Aries - today is an astrologic Zen koan
welcome to episode 65 in season six of kristo's astrology...
here's my reading of the Zeitgeist for Tuesday, August 24th, 2021
**all times reported here are in UTC-0 (Universal Coordinated Time) or GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)... please adjust the hours 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...
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...

Piscean Luna Opposes Virgo Mercury (in his / her Opposition to Piscean Neptune) @3:03 AM GMT / UTC-0
how do you organize and represent all of the important ideas you've got swirling around in your head and psyche...?
and not just the stuff related to one project or task, but the stuff that makes you who you are...
or is it the other way around...?
who you are acts as a kind of magnet that drew all of those ideas to you and together...
it's not exactly the Chuang Tzu butterfly dream paradox...
although it certainly could be...
....
Luna Conjuncts Neptune (in his Sextile to Capricorn Pluto) @5:50 AM
today really must be a Zen koan...
you might even find yourself drawn to read the Blue Cliff Record
....
Luna Quintiles the Gemini Dragon's Head (in its Trine to Aquarian Saturn) @9:35 AM
have some fun with Zen today...
your intuition is looking to have some fun...
might as well give it some exercise... try some of these Zen stories... or even these originals from the wayback machine...
....
Luna Sextiles Pluto (in his waning BiQuintile to Virgo Sol) @10:12 AM, and goes Void of Course for 9 hours and 55 minutes
once your Intuition gets going, it's a very short trip to start thinking about 'Pataphysics — which this astrologic moment seems to suggest...
personally, I'm more attracted to the aims of the alchemists...
must be a Typology thing...
....
Luna enters Aries @7:57 PM, and reaches a Quincunx to unaspected Sol @11:37 PM
whatever you do and whatever you prefer, there is no one correct method for reaching your goal...
and that's because there certainly are 16 fairly distinct personality types among us...
all based on that fourfold division of personality into temperaments...
themselves based on that intuitive business of a mixture of the 4 humors...
see...?
the very idea of a mixture means there are infinite variations...
although just like the rainbow, there are only so many basics to begin with...
confused...?
good...!
just let your intuition off the leash today...
....

and here’s another fairytale flash:
well Episode 14 of the Hansel and Gretel Code is now out there in the wild...
I call this episode: Transformation Can Be Fun... and in it we find out why the deity is really a ham actor whose favorite hang out is that famous sleaze joint called Between a Rock and a Hard Place... Why not stop by and join the fun...?
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....
