In Episode Four of The Sentient Sky, we have a look at the sky weather of July, which is dominated by Neptune stationing retrograde early in the month, a Mars Uranus conjunction, and lot's of conversations between the planets and the nodes. We spend a bit of time early on in the episode chatting about the significance of the nodal axis, and what it means when a planet moves through 'the bendings' - the 90˚ point between the two nodes, and the special significance of the luminaries passing through this territory. We also can't ignore the influence of the fixed star Algol, the Medusa star, as Mars and Uranus come together at her degree in Taurus, bringing dynamite to a trauma-sensitive point in the sky.

KEY THEMES

Instability, encouragement to turn tragedy into something beneficial, weird time & space bending ...
