August 31, 2021: Luna's in Gemini - today's the day for your astrologic Mona Lisa
welcome to episode 72 in season six of kristo's astrology...
here's my reading of the Zeitgeist for Tuesday, August 31st, 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...

The Gemini Moon Trines Libra Venus (in her Quincunx to Taurean Uranus) @5:30 AM GMT / UTC-0
this isn't as much about words as it is about making images and having fun...
that could mean fingerpainting — since it could include making a mess — although paint and colors are definitely in the mix...
do some exploring...
make some mistakes...
have some fun...
it's all in the Zeitgeist...
....
Luna BiQuintiles Capricorn Pluto (in his Sextile to Piscean Neptune) @7:31 AM
expect your experimenting and scribbling to yield some solid and fruitful results...
painting isn't seen as practical — unless you're talking house painting...
hey, if you're not all that Intuitively inclined, you just might be surprised...
but then again, you probably wouldn't be here tuning into my Intuition if you weren't...
....
Virgo Sol (in his Square to the Gemini Dragon's Head) reaches an exact Quincunx to Aquarian Saturn (in his Trine to the Dragon's Head) @9:46 AM
uh oh...
making a mess and not cleaning up immediately afterwards is a big Bozo No-No...!
your paints and brushes are gonna dry out and you're never gonna be able to use them again...
and forget about your work area...
oh boy...
....
Luna begins a T-Square with a Square to Virgo Mars (in his Opposition to Neptune) @11:36 AM
see...?
a clean work and play area isn't a luxury...
it's a necessity...
....
Libra Mercury exactly BiQuintiles Aquarian Jupiter @11:59 AM
okay so this is a reminder to me...
writing and talking about art is more play and pleasure than work...
as long as it isn't the dreaded shibboleth: Octoberspeak...
October is an academic arts journal that makes reading and understanding sanskrit look easy...
....
Luna completes that T-Square with a Square to Neptune @2:41 PM
hey, if any of you are interested in reading a free article from this super-prestigious journal, here's a legitimate link direct from the official MIT press website...
be careful though, reading more than one sentence could induce dizziness and nausea...
This is a genuine, legitimate link direct from the official MIT press website to an article entitled: Lying in the Gallery...
once you get to the website all you have to do is download the free pdf
....
Luna Quintiles unaspected Aries Chiron @6:27 PM
you know, instead of reading about art, it's always better to go and see it for yourself...
if you want to read what somebody has had to say about it, that's fine...
but only AFTER you've seen the piece for yourself — and in person...
on-line is fine for reading — not for looking...
....
Luna reaches a Quincunx to Pluto @7:37 PM
see...
unless you're there in person, right in front of an artwork, you're gonna be missing a key component of the work itself...
You...
in other words, without you, the damn thing isn't present...
and if you're not present in front of it, make no mistake: it isn't really art...
....
Luna Trines Jupiter @9:48 PM, and goes Void of Course for 8 hours and 38 minutes
hey, I stand by that statement...
art may be conceptual or virtual or what have you...
it might even exist as an object...
I'm even certain the Mona Lisa is hanging on a wall in Paris...
but without you and me standing right in front of her, she's not art...
....
Luna Quintiles Sol @11:54 PM
okay, so I guess I'm going to have to prove my point...
or at least improve my argument in words...
here's a short snippet of a different episode of kristo.art...
it's from Michael Krebber - Simple is Difficult
I've really got to get myself back to talking about art more...
....
HEY, don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel...

and if you like it, PLEASE do subscribe there and, more importantly, spread the word...
you know, like mayo on your sandwich...
or, okay like mustard...
mustard's good too...
I got nothin' against mustard...
I swear...!
....
....
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...
got a comment or a question:

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....
