The Grand Irrationality

In September and October 2010, the Grand Irrationality will be highly activated by the inner planets! Between September 10-15, the Sun was in the Virgo zone of the Grand Irrationality, while at the end of the month we have Mercury in the Virgo zone between September 26-29. At the same time, Venus occupies the Scorpio zone from Sept 22 through October 23 and Mars occupies the Scorpio zone from Sept 28 through October 5. At the end of this period, Mercury will move through the Scorpio zone from October 26-29.
That means at times 5 or even 6 points of the Great Septile will be active due to Lunar transits and the changes in the Ascendant over the course of a day. This sets "destiny in motion" in these areas in everyone's charts. You can bet whatever this touches in your chart will light up like a pinball machine and throw you into major choices and changes!
To remind those of you who know and introduce it to those who haven't heard of this, The Grand Irrationality is a configuration driven by septile series aspects. It creates 7 zones where strange, irrational, obsessive-compulsive energies manifest. If you want to know more about these very important, "destiny producing" non-rational angular fields, at the end of this post there's a link to an article elaborating on these aspects. It may help explain how these aspects work their influence within the larger energetic field in which we live, breathe, and have our being.
Due to Neptune and Pluto being in a very long term septile and the other planets making regular visits to the various zones in early Capricorn, late Aquarius, mid Aries, early Gemini, late Cancer and early Leo, late Virgo, and mid Scorpio, its influence is fairly constant. This is a major factor as to why such extreme hard-edged strangeness is boiling to the top in personalities and situations. Collectively we are at a major fork in the road of human evolution resulting from the almost constant pressure put on everyone each time this aspect series is triggered.
The influence of this configuration was virtually non-stop between Autumn 2007 to January 2010, and will be in heavy activation in December 2010 and March-April 2011. The 2007-2009 period boosted and clarified what began with the Autumn 2006 Eclipses, there were important septile series configurations made by transits that set off important changes and choices that did not make much sense, but we had to make them anyway. These transits continue for many years to come, showing us how to greet the forward edge of our future "destiny" by the ways we greet the weirdness of the NOW.
As previously noted, The Grand Irrationality activates any time a planet or the Moon crosses any of the seven zones of influence. During September and October 2010, the hot zones of The Grand Irrationality are approximately 2-6 Capricorn, 24-28 Aquarius, 15-19 Aries, 6-10 Gemini, 28 Cancer to 2 Leo, 19-23 Virgo, and 10-14 Scorpio depending on what degrees Neptune and Pluto occupy plus the orb of influence.
Any time the Moon transits any of the hot zones the pattern is triggered.
As previously noted, in September and October much will be set into motion directly related to what was structured in our lives during the Saturn in Virgo era as that related to the period when Mars was in the early Leo zone of the Grand Irrationality from late February through late March 2010. That period marked a new beginning in the Leo areas of our charts.
As it was the nozzle (due to forming 2 triseptiles to the Neptune-Pluto anchor) it marked an important shift in energies where we resumed the initiatives left hanging when Mars went retrograde in December 2009. When Mars moved through 21-25 Virgo in late July, it marked the next Martian "step" in what began to move forward in March-April. The next stage in this process will occur when Mars moves through the Scorpio zone in late September and early October.
One very important thing to note: when Mars went through Virgo this past Summer, it was the first time this happened since Saturn crystallized some long term Grand Irrationality lessons. As Mars activates whatever it touches, late July was a time when we could act on what we learned, or we could see those Saturn in Virgo issues and lessons come to the fore in some way wherever we have mid-Virgo in your chart.
