Astrology Hot Zones in November 2004 - The Grand Irrationality At Work On Us All

by Robert Wilkinson

Due to the on-going Neptune septile Pluto, we have greater irrationality on a global level than at any time since it last happened during the '30s and the rise of Fascism and other authoritarian models. Jupiter's station at 9 Virgo in May 2004 established 3 points of the Great Septile pattern, and created some hot zones in our charts wherever these points fall. These points fall roughly at 7-11 Virgo, 29 Libra-3 Scorpio, 19-23 Sagittarius, 11-15 Aquarius, 3-7 Aries, 25-29 Taurus, and 15-19 Cancer.

Any planets in your chart that fall near these points has been activated by major irrationality during the past year. Any time we've had a transit of these points, it has triggered the pattern. Septiles, biseptiles, and triseptiles all deal with the irrational, "destiny producing" forks in the road we all confront at various times of crisis and decision. While each aspect has its unique function within the series, they all show as obsessive-compulsive urges, experiences, and interactions at the ego level, and major points of choice and irrevocable change in our lives on a dharma level.

Sun signs at these points are those born the first week of September, late October early November, mid-December, early February, late March, mid-May, and early to mid July. It especially is freaking out people with Pluto, Uranus, or Saturn in these degree spans. For Pluto, it affects those born mid 1926-early 1927, mid 1927-mid 1930, early 1931, December 1959, mid 1960-late 1962, February 1963-August 1963, November 1982-April 1983, September 1983-November 1984, May 1985-September 1985, and those born now, since Pluto is currently in that span. For Uranus, it affects those born mid 1927-29, mid 1940-42, mid 1952-54, mid 1963-65, late 1974-76, late 1985-87, and 1998-99. Expect very strange occurrences to bring forth your uniqueness or genius, even if things seem way out of control and make no sense at all. You're individuating, and either cooperating or exploding sideways or both.

People with Saturn in these spans are probably going through a lot of choices about which limitations, restrictions, duties, obligations, and fears you're willing to live with and what you really don't want to take into your future. Your security systems are in flux from forces that challenge the structure of your reality, so be flexible and have no fear! Dates are month/year: 12/23 through 5/24, 8/24-10/24, 2/28-5/28, 11/28-12/28, 2/33-1/34, 5/37-9/37, 2/38, 6/41-12/41, 3/42-4/42, 7/45-8/45, 2/46-4/46, 12/48, 8/49-9/49, 1/53-2/53, 10/53-11/53, 6/54-7/54, 12/57-2/58, 6/58-11/58, 1/63-2/63, 3/67-4/67, 11/67-1/68, 5/71-6/71, 1/72-2/72, 8/74-1/75, 5/75-6/75, 9/78-10/78, 2/79-7/79, 11/82-1/83, 3/83-9/83, 1/87-6/87, 10/87-12/87, 2/92-3/92, 8/92-12/92, 4/96-10/96, 1/97-2/97.

Of course, if your Moon, Mercury, Mars or whatever is in those hot zones, you can expect the energetics to work on those parts of your inner and outer life. We're all definitely facing forks in the road of our destiny in specific areas of life, as is the world in general. Expect the septile pattern to be triggered late October (Sun transit Libra-Scorpio sector), 2nd week of November (Mars transit), 2nd week of December (Sun), 4th week of Jan (Mars), last week of Jan-beginning of February 2005 (Sun), 4th week of March (Sun), first 10 days of April (Mars), 3rd week of May (Sun), and 3rd week of June (Mars). Other times will be triggered by Mercury and Venus, but I won't go into that here. Late October 2005 is a major hot zone, with Sun and Jupiter conjunct in late Libra, and Venus conjunct Pluto in Sag span with Neptune stationary direct on the Angel point. But that's another story for another time.
