Hello, my name is Christopher Wrenstrom. And this week I wanted to talk to you about the upcoming Mars Jupiter Sextile that will be taking place on September 1st.

Now, most of the time in astrology we'll talk about what's going on with the planets upstairs, pretty much in terms of like the weather, you know, we will speak about the aspects that the planets are making upstairs in terms of like whether they're going to be bringing clear skies or stormy skies, whether this is a time when we can expect things to move smoothly or whether this is a time that might be particularly

challenging and we all have to sort of conquer down and bear with it. All right? So that's one way of looking at astrology in terms of like the weather. How am I going to dress today? I'm going to check the weather. Oh, it looks like it's going to be light and breezy, so I'll dress comfortably, or it looks like it's going to be a really hot day, so I'll dress accordingly, or it's going to storm, so I'm going to get my umbrella and galoshes, you know, things like that.

Astrology being this idea of what's going on in the sky, sort of giving us a heads up on

how to prepare and deal with the planetary forces as they will be emerging in our lives.

That's one way of looking at astrology.

Another way of looking at astrology is to look up at the planets and be like,

hmm, I wonder what I could start right now or what I could finish right now that will bring the best results.

Okay, so in other words, what it is is that you might have an idea in mind or you might have a project or an enterprise, something

that you want to engage in and you naturally would wonder, would this be a successful time to do it. Would this be a fortuitous time to do it? That would give me the best advantage and things like that. So it's kind of like looking at the stars in this regard more as cosmic collaborators, you know,

the planets as as being your sort of silent partner upstairs in which you're sort of banking on the energies being able to support the thing that it is that you want to do, all right?

And this is the sort of reading that I want to give you for this week. Okay, this week we have a very particular lineup of planets that's going to be taking place, but it's also very hectic and it's also a little complicated and reminds me a lot of a sort of tap dance routine where you're going to have to be able to think very quickly on your feet in order to take advantage of what's going to be available for you cosmically. what because the placement of the planets have to do with certain preconditions.

There have to have been certain things that are going on in your life, that if you can say, ah, that makes sense, okay, then you could go ahead and make use of this energy, all right? But if you don't sort of fulfill these sort of prerequisites in which you're kind of like what's you talking about or no that's not what's going on or that didn't happen then just skip it because it's not it's not going to be working for you. So basically this is kind of a forecast based on whether you fall into these particular prerequisites.

All right, so and let me break it down for you

because it gets kind of like complex,

and hopefully I'll make sense of it for you.

After all, that is my job as an astrologer
