098 | Podathon Day Five: What Accents?!

It’s the final day of the second annual Big Sky Astrology PODATHON! In this episode: April & Jen celebrate a Venus-ruled Friday and the Venus-ruled Moon in Taurus! We talk about the void-of-course Moon, what the Moon enjoys when it’s in Gemini, and answer questions from non-imaginary sponsor Shellie Crow and listener Lara in Denmark, who has us asking the musical question, “What accents??”

.

5:34 – Friday is ruled by Venus! We talked about the planets’ rulership of the days in Ep. 3: https://bit.ly/39vJmSZ

.

6:00 – *MOONWATCH* The Taurus Moon joins Uranus (9:56am - ALL TIMES ARE PDT) and opposes Venus at 1:15pm. Beautify your home, get some flowers, have a relaxing day.

.

7:18 – Sep. 25, as we recover from the thrill of Podathon, the Moon sextiles Neptune at 12:23am, squares Jupiter at 3:48am, and goes void-of-course (VOC) at 6:09am on a trine to Pluto.

.

8:11 – More on the VOC Moon in Ep. 43 (https://bit.ly/3kuEIer) and Ep. 23 (https://bit.ly/39uusMY). The Moon’s last aspect before leaving a sign describes how matters of the previous 2-3 days resolve.

.

9:15 – With the Moon/Pluto trine, there is the sense of having made some progress about something over the past 2-3 days, if only a change in perspective. Moon enters Gemini at 5:36pm.

.

10:42 – The mood of a Gemini Moon is information-heavy. Return phone calls and emails, catch up on your reading, binge Ted Lasso!

.

11:42 – On Sep. 25, Mars in Libra trines Saturn in Aquarius at 2:50pm. This is a productive aspect in social air signs; get a group together to accomplish something.

.

13:16 – Delightful listener Lara from Denmark asks a good question (in an adorable accent!) about how to understand conjunctions in the birth chart. We resist the urge to burst into song as we answer. Not that she’d mind if we had!

.

14:56 – The influence of conjunctions in the chart depends on the planets involved. These planets can only work in tandem – and some are more comfortable together than others!

.

18:33 – April responds to a question from non-imaginary sponsor Shellie Crow about April’s artwork! Examples at her website: https://www.bigskyastrology.com

.

21:01 – That’s a wrap on PODATHON II! Thanks for listening, celebrating with us, and of course for your contributions! We’re closing in on our 100th episode AND two years of podcasting, and it wouldn’t be the same without all of you!
