2. A t-square is a challenging
planetary configuration where two planets (or
sets of planets) are in opposition to each other
and each is also square (at 90°) to a third
planet or set of planets. The
focal
point is the planet at 90° to the opposition.
Fixed signs tend toward stasis.
3. All transits include 2° orbs,
unless otherwise specified. Transiting Saturn squared
natal Mercury from April 25, 1999 to January 28, 2000;
the natal Sun from May 12, 1999 to March 4, 2000; and
conjoined natal Jupiter from May 23, 1999 to March
18, 2000. Currently, transiting Saturn opposes natal
Mercury from September 7, 2005 to July 3, 2006; opposes
the natal Sun from September 28, 2005 to July 21, 2006;
squares natal Jupiter from October 16, 2005 to August
1, 2006; will conjoin the natal Moon from September
6, 2006 to July 3, 2007 and natal Pluto from September
20, 2006 to July 18, 2007. On February 15, 2006, the
solar arc Ascendant is at 6°39’ Leo;
transiting Saturn is retrograde at 6°21’ Leo;
and the solar arc IC is at 27°49’ Libra.
4. The yod
configuration is named after the Hebrew letter yud
or yod, a y-shaped glyph that represents the “presence of the divine.” This
may explain why the triangular yod configuration
(two planets sextile each other and 150 degrees from
a third) represents a powerful calling or destiny.

the Hebrew letter
yod.
5. Transiting Uranus conjoined
the natal Midheaven from May 12, 2003 to February 21,
2005; transiting Pluto square natal Mars from February
13, 2004 to November 28, 2006 and conjoins the natal
Descendant from February 21, 2004 to December 2, 2006;
and transiting Neptune opposes the natal Moon from
March 16, 2006 to January 7, 2009.

trine is from January 5 – May 19, 2006. Learn
