July 27/28: Mercury and the Tarantula Nebula allow us to observe clearly the state of our creativity, Mars and the Great Orion Nebula (M42) take productivity to the maximum to generate abundance

July 27/28: Mercury retrograde in opposition to the Tarantula Nebula, in sextile to Vesta and the Hyades cluster. This combination is excellent for stimulating mental focus, especially when it comes to escape outside influences that distract us from the issues that really need our attention. The Tarantula Nebula, one of the largest regions of ionized hydrogen (HII) in our galactic environment, is in a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, the Large Magellanic Cloud. Simply because of its size, this gargantuan cosmic matrix tends to get noticed and to absorb the time and space of others. This is not necessarily bad, but the transit of Mercury retrograde in opposition indicates a balance: we can resist people or situations that demand too much of our energy and time. In some cases the effect will be exactly the opposite  and then the option is to enjoy-first of all, and manage the wealth of concepts, ideas, people and creativity that will flow around. Mercury in opposition to the Tarantula indicates the possibility to look objectively at our position in the whole and in society, and clearly analyze our situation and what we've done so far with our present life. And for that, Vesta, together with the Hyades cluster, is an aid, as it promotes concentration. But the Hyades, with an abundance of K-type stars, on the other hand greatly stimulate desire and sexuality, as well as a free creative expression. It depends on where we want to make the emphasis... Choose the way you deem more convenient for your plans...

      Mars in parallel with the Great Orion Nebula (M42) is in itself another huge boost of creativity, though perhaps very fast and impatient, as Mars gives it full speed. And the Great Nebula of Orion, which can be seen with the naked eye below the Belt of Orion, is one of the greatest zones of generation of stars in our galaxy.... M42 is thus one of the most important astrological symbols of creativity and productivity in our sky, very much like the Tarantula Nebula, although closer to us and not as big ... Anyway, it's a great day to significantly increase productivity at all levels, and this obviously can bring benefits in the material plane and a great abundance at all levels. With the speed injected by Mars, maybe we can do more and with better results than in previous days. However, it is likely that the work consists on planting seeds and starting projects rather than reaping the fruits, which we will probably only see weeks later. But, because of that, we must not lose this opportunity to plant for tomorrow!
