Energy Patterns for July 2004 Energy Patterns for July 2004July 1st to the 8th -- more fat and fuzzy H12.
July 9th to the 13th -- zero to 60 in 4 days.
July 14th to the end of the month -- the biggest storm in 13 months!
An online ephemeris for the month is available.
I spent a lot of time last month discussing a waveform pattern I called a "fat, fuzzy H12" wave. I think we've all had enough of that sluggish, disruptive energy, but we've got one more week of that noise. However, after that we build up to a storm, the likes of which we haven't seen in quite some time. It's not quite up to Koz Quake proportions (which start at 600 units), but it might as well be one. You need to go back to June 2003 to find a waveform of similar intensity, though this month the energies last longer and will undoubtedly make a bigger impact on us. Suffice it to say the world may be pretty weird in late July. I divide up the month into 3 separate energy patterns.
July 1st to the 8th |
The 1st to the 8th is a continuation of the fat H12 energies that finished out the month of June. There's not much energy in the waveform right now, drifting between 334 and 451 units of strength. The harmonics are mostly H12 and H48, your typical fat 12. These influences are concentrated around 12 to 16 and 5 to 9 degrees of each zodiac sign -- see if any planets in your own birthchart fall in these critical areas. There's really not much action going on these days, so it's a good time to kick back and catch up to your life. The main planets that are affecting us now are generally more upbeat ones like Jupiter, Venus and Mercury which don't make much of a demand on us. You may be in a light-hearted mood, by and large, even if it's tough to get anything done. Focus on one or two important things at a time and don't sweat the small stuff.
July 9th to the 13th |
The 9th to the 13th is the buildup to the big storm this month. Over this period, the energies consolidate into a more coherent pattern and rapidly build in strength. The intensity levels range from a mild 365 units to a powerful Koz Alert of 536 units on the 13th, so you'll likely feel the energies ramp up and take off quite quickly here. The dominant harmonic is a slim and trim H12, with the noisy H48 part starting to dissipate somewhat -- the waveform is more focused and generally very constructive. Most of the energy is concentrated in the 12 to 16 degree region of each zodiac sign. Mercury and Mars are connecting with the big Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune Yod we've been tracking since last fall, marking this as a critical time in the greater world scene. This Yod has been active, especially in Middle Eastern affairs, for a long time, leaving both "progress" and chaos in its wake. Let's hope that discussion (Mercury) will prevail over conflict (Mars) during this time. With the Sun kicking up Uranus and Pluto, however, there are some very disruptive undercurrents to contend with.
July 14th to the end of the month |
The 14th to the end of the month is the core of the big storm pattern in July. The strength of this waveform is nothing like we've experienced in a long time, ranging from 409 units on a quiet day to near Koz Quake proportions of 590 units around the 23rd. The harmonics include H12, H24, H48 and H4. This is generally helpful and useful, although the rougher frequencies (especially H24) are more common during the latter part of the storm. The biggest peaks here cluster around 15 to 20 degrees (Pluto is growing in influence!) and 5 to 6 degrees of each sign. The planetary pattern behind this waveform is complex and very powerful. In essence, we have a T-square of Venus opposite Pluto, squared off by Jupiter (this square is exact on Aug 6), with "help" from Mars and Saturn, among other planets. The aspects are technically positive, except for the squares, and the orbs are tight, hence the tall peaks. There's a lot of extremely passionate energy here that likes to operate on a very grand scale. In the recent past, these influences have often come out in a destructive fashion at least as often as they've been helpful. There is a lot of pent up "emotional steam" in people these days, which Pluto and friends will unleash and channel into powerful currents. If you're capable of "riding the wave" and harnessing this flow to your own purposes, this can be an extremely productive time. The possibility of achieving great goals is more likely now than usual. Unfortunately, given the level of awareness that most people operate at still, these strong storms often bring out the worst (i.e., the most unconscious and automatic behaviors) in them, creating great drama and chaos in our lives. It's important to be aware and keep your wits about you if you want to stay on top of this wave. The storm appears to crest between the 22nd and the 26th and is slowly dissipating by the end of the month. Weak remnants of the storm continue into the first few days of August.
For about a week in the middle of the storm, the waveforms spend a great deal of time in the turbulent Koz Alert levels (500 units or higher). We're certainly going to feel the rush as the world picks up speed and intensity, possibly tipping over into that "crazy, out of control" feeling. Keep your goals simple and clear and don't focus on too many things at once and you might come through in excellent shape. However, when a waveform like this one comes along, we're all allowed to have a crazy day. On the plus side, that Libra Moon is forming a lot of helpful sextiles all over, so events may whiz by in a curiously constructive manner. The same can't be said for some of the other Alerts this week, particularly when the T-square with Pluto dominates. Enjoy the roller coaster ride...
