A Nasty Aspect
Ed Kluska’s Astrology Timing Report, Thursday, August 04, 2022
Moon in the water sign Scorpio from Thursday morning until early Saturday afternoon boosts Scorpio and, to a lesser degree, the other water signs, Cancer and Pisces. Moon in Scorpio also helps any planets and points you have in Scorpio and should bring together more things for Scorpio on a short-term basis.
Moon in Scorpio supports anyone’s involvement with Scorpio-related attitudes and activities such as being more attuned to intimacy, sexuality, and power issues; working on deeper emotions and feelings such as anger and resentment; focusing on self-transformation, esoteric studies, and the mysteries of life; any scientific exploration and research; and dealing with mortgages, taxes, insurance, wills, surgery, medical records, brokerage accounts, and credit card statements as well as plumbing, sewerage, air conditioning, and recycling.
Friday’s Lunar Challenges
The lunar aspects listed later in this newsletter show Moon in Scorpio making three challenging aspects in a row starting late Friday afternoon: Moon opposite Uranus, opposite Mars, and square Saturn. Recall that these lunar aspects are in effect for a few hours (versus days) before and until the times given for the Eastern Time Zone.
A Nasty Aspect
In effect this week through this weekend, Mars square Saturn is one of the nastier planetary aspects because it involves a clash between two major stress-producing planets. Everything intensifies with a challenging Mars-Saturn aspect in the sky or in your horoscope. Issues, differences, and controversies come into focus. Tensions run high. Frustrations, fears, delays, disputes, bitterness, and uncertainties are more likely.
This aspect is also related to weather extremes, accidents, aggressions, shootings, violence, murders, escalated military tensions, and natural disasters such as earthquakes, wildfires, and hurricanes.
When Mars square Saturn occurred in January 2021, there was the siege of our Capital, the Indonesia jet which lost 62 people on board, the possibility of starting a second impeachment process, and the growing Coronavirus surge and mess with the vaccine distribution.
According to the principles of right timing, any business, project, decision, relationship, wedding, and childbirth, for example, started around this time, will have the qualities and characteristics of this aspect.
So, for now, it is more appropriate to be cautious and patient than aggressive and demanding. Stay focused on what’s working in your life and catch up with what’s already in front of you. Mars-Saturn aspects favor hard work, concentrated efforts, determination, persistence, and endurance.
For most people (depending on their horoscope and personal cycles), nothing special will happen, but those with their Sun, Moon, planets, and points around 22.5 degrees of Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Scorpio, and Aquarius should be more vigilant.
Sun Sign Updates
To use this information correctly, you need to know the degree of your Sun sign, but the degree of your Sun is not your date of birth. For example, if you were born on September 27, the degree of your Sun is around 05 degrees Libra. If you were born on October 15, the degree of your Sun is around 22 degrees Libra. If you don’t know the degree of your Sun, call me, and I will calculate it for you.
These sun-sign assessments are only “the tip of the iceberg” for what you should know. A complete evaluation is far more complex and involved than any newsletter can present. For example, there are many other factors besides your sun sign to consider, such as the transits to all the planets and points in your horoscope. However, awareness of the current transits to your Sun’s position can be invaluable because of the current positions of the slower-moving planets (Mars in Taurus, Jupiter in Aries, Saturn in Aquarius, Uranus in Taurus, Neptune in Pisces, and Pluto in Capricorn) can create significant trends and events in your life.

Lunar Aspects
The most important aspects of the Moon in Scorpio are listed below. The descriptions do not intend to tell you what will happen in your life at the times given. Instead, they provide some of the possible influences you can expect around the times given so you can plan your life more wisely. It is often apparent which time frames are better for timing a party, trip, decision, project, business, or other events.
Lunar aspects are in effect for a few hours (versus days) before and until the times given for the Eastern Time Zone. Therefore, you must adjust the times for where you live. For example, if you live on the West Coast, there is a three-hour difference, so you must subtract three hours.
The plus (+) lunar aspects are favorable. The minus (-) lunar aspects are more likely to bring challenges or difficulties. The + and - lunar aspects can exhibit positive and negative influences.
Thursday, August 04
07:46 AM Moon entered Scorpio, where it remains until early Saturday afternoon when it enters the next sign, Sagittarius.
11:17 PM + (Moon in Scorpio 150 Jupiter in Aries) opportunities for any interpersonal situation, including meetings and working with the public. This lunar aspect also increases the possibilities for kindness, benevolence, positive attitudes, shared feelings, and uplifting emotional support.
Friday, August 05
12:53 PM + (Moon in Scorpio 150 Chiron in Aries) opportunities for healing and family matters.
04:30 PM + (Moon in Scorpio 180 Node in Taurus) opportunities for connecting with people via networking, social interactions, and alliances with large and small groups.
05:13 PM - (Moon in Scorpio 180 Uranus in Taurus) opportunities for increased instincts, willfulness, and aspirations regarding anything new, different, exciting, and adventuresome. However, this also brings nervousness, anxiety, upsets, restlessness, excitability, volatility, and emotionally charged situations.
09:37 PM - (Moon in Scorpio 180 Mars in Taurus) opportunities for bolder and more direct actions. However, this aspect magnifies feelings and passions, bringing impatience, rashness, impulsiveness, anger, and even forceful actions.
11:46 PM - (Moon in Scorpio 90 Saturn in Aquarius) opportunities for orderly, steady, conscientious, pragmatic, and realistic plans and activities. However, this aspect is challenging because it is emotionally restrictive and can create issues, worries, and differences.
Saturday, August 06
12:56 AM + (Moon in Scorpio 120 Venus in Cancer) opportunities for cooperation, cheerfulness, affections, pleasantries, gracefulness, emotional sharing, and artistic expression, especially involving females.
04:07 AM (Moon in Scorpio 120 Neptune in Pisces) opportunities for daydreaming, imagination, creativity, prayer, meditation, and highly refined artistic and spiritual feelings and aspirations.
07:24 AM + (Moon in Scorpio 60 Pluto in Capricorn) opportunities for practical and concrete business plans, deeper feelings, and psychic impressions.
07:24 AM Moon in Scorpio Void until 12:38 PM when it enters the next sign, Sagittarius.
This Void is more than five hours, so take note because there tends to be a lull in the energy levels during Void periods. As a result, what you start or implement is less likely to turn out as planned or expected. It’s usually better to do things with less significance or no purpose than to start something new and vital. If you have a new idea, meet someone new, or start a business, those activities are less likely to amount to much.
Guidelines for Using This Information
These newsletters are not your typical sun sign column. They provide much more information and guidance, but it may not be easy for you to sort everything out with so many factors presented, even for astrology students. Therefore, I try to keep everything as clear and straightforward as possible.
The most critical factor with right timing is what is occurring in your horoscope. When negative aspects dominate your horoscope, the chances of success with right timing diminish no matter how favorable the aspects are in the sky. These newsletters cannot cover what is occurring in your horoscope. However, applying the information in these newsletters with common sense allows you to better time your decisions and activities.
The basic premise of right timing is that it helps to have the "stars" on your side. Starting a marriage, trip, surgery, business, real estate deal, or a major purchase, for example, at an inopportune time reduces the chances of success no matter how good your intentions and how hard you try: the better the timing, the higher your chances of success. Even an hour can make a significant difference with important decisions and events.
Moon enters each zodiac sign about every 28 days and remains in each sign for about two and a half days. When the Moon is in your sun sign, matters are likely to come more together for you short-term unless significant aspects are currently challenging your horoscope.
The traits and qualities I assign to the signs in these newsletters describe the signs’ functions and meanings versus describing your personality. However, the descriptions may be entirely accurate for you. Furthermore, to understand a person’s personality and character from an astrological perspective, dozens of factors besides one's sun sign need to be considered.
Contact me to know what’s going on in your horoscope and to make better decisions at better times. We will schedule a private consultation at my office or on the phone, so you can know more about your future and better understand the issues and opportunities in your life as well as your relationships, job, career, education, finances, children, parents, travel, health, location, retirement, karma, and purpose in life.
