This morning I posted this in the comment section of yesterday's Daily Horoscope post on Fakebook . . . "I feel the need for speed .... meaning, I feel the need to ramp up the information and lay it out there, even harder, tougher, stronger, MORE! And here's the thing . . . the lockdown of 2020, that was a mere practice . . . I'll explain in the Daily Horoscope for Friday, Feb. 10, 2023."

So folks, for all kinds of reasons, I am RAMPING UP! I have a lot to say about - trolls, keep your enemies closer, and of course, the upcoming shift into the last and final degree of Pluto in Capricorn for the 1st of 3 direct hits. Bumpy ride? You think this is going to be a bumpy ride? Try on the word - tumultuous, bone-shaking and chaotic.

I have already written a lot below and I will be back with a lot more, but before you read below, I will leave you with this thought from Owen Wilson's character in the movie, "Armageddon". And speaking of Armageddon (ruled by Pluto) did you read the second RED FONT ADDENDUM in yesterday's Daily Horoscope. I posted it late last night.

If you don't see the embedded video below, click this link to watch it.

The BIG NEWS today is Mercury in Capricorn conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn. Ohhhhh, how I Love this aspect occurring right now. Notice how this aspect came into the 'orb of influence' in applying (approaching) degrees on February 2, 2023, it is exact today, and it will last in separating degrees until February 18, 2023. Applying degrees is when we feel the 'prodrome' (early symptom) of the aspect. NOW FOLKS THAT IS IMPORTANT. Read that last line again because it is important that you remember the word 'prodrome'.

Stop reading this for a second and look-up the word 'prodrome'. I use 'prodrome' a lot in my horoscope writings because it is THE MOST fitting word to use. Doctors use this word a lot because the prodrome is the early sign or symptom that indicates something is amiss.

Now I'm USING the scenario of doctor/patient in order to help you understand Astrology, but this is NOT about your health. I'm just USING the doctor/patient scene as an analogy. **This is important!

So here we go . . . A 'sign' is something a doctor sees, and a 'symptom' is something you experience. You can't see a symptom, but you can see a sign.

So you go to the doctor and YOU GIVE the doctor your list of symptoms. If you leave something out because you don't think it was important or worth mentioning, then you may have left out valuable information that the doctor can use to build a 'differential diagnosis'. That means you are asking the doctor to come up with a proper diagnosis based on insufficient information. A 'differential diagnosis' is a list of possible disorders that have the same or similar signs and symptoms in common. Then the doctor goes through the 'differential' using 'tests' (laboratory, orthopedic, imaging, etc.) to rule out one disorder at a time until the final diagnosis is reached.

So back to the prodrome (early symptom), now you can see just how important the prodrome is. Every healthcare doctor on the planet, with DR in front of their name, will begin the line of questioning with the mneumonic OPPQRST. The O means 'Onset'. When did it start? You can read the rest on the - See Signs and Symptoms on this website. It's been on this site for 23 years. Anyway, WHEN DID IT START?

Now we are back to the beginning of today's Mercury in Capricorn conjunct Pluto in Capricorn.

Astrologer says to Astrotator: "When did it start? When was the prodrome?"

Astrotator says to Astrologer: "Well, it all started back on Thursday - February 2, 2023."

P.S. - I call my readers who study astrology, astrotators.

Maybe there was no 'sign' that you could 'see' on this date, but maybe you felt a 'symptom'. Remember, you can't see a symptom, you can only see a sign. The symptom would be that you 'felt it' and you said to yourself, "Self. I felt that." And therein lies your intuition folks. The prodrome is your intuitive hit that something is occurring. Something is real. You might not be able to point to it or put your finger on it yet, but you feel it. Your intuition tells you something is amiss, not quite right, but by golly you can feel it, AND THAT MAKES IT REAL!

Some people choose to ignore the prodrome and go about Life as if nothing is wrong and then the symptoms get out of hand because the symptoms are manifesting into bigger problems (signs) that cannot be missed. This is how some individuals wait too long KNOWING full-well something is not quite right, and end up with a Stage IV something or other.

You know, you feel, and sometimes 'the thing' progresses until you can finally see it. Maybe your finger twitches, maybe you limp, maybe you are hunched over, maybe you have a headache, maybe this, maybe that.

Folks, ya' gotta take your time processing these planetary aspects. Let the thought of the aspect marinate into your brain, just like you would if you had that symptom (feeling) that gradually grew into a sign (finger twitch).

So here we go meandering through Life, skippity-doo-dahing, going on vacation, buying new things, partying like rockstars 'as if' there were no baffoons in the world messing with our freedoms. Lah-dee-dah.

Maybe you are so caught-up in a romance that you don't see stores closing in your area. Maybe you didn't shop at that small business or at that big box store like Bed, Bath and Beyond.

Maybe self-check out is your thing and you don't see that nine (9) cashier lanes are closed and only one (1) cashier lane is open with the rest all self-check out.

Maybe you are so entranced playing on your phone, checking, re-checking and then checking again your ever-so-important social media status while sitting in your car waiting for your curbside service or the kids practice to end, that you missed the early symptom of closures all around you. Restaurants closed, boutiques, hair salons, strip malls are emptied out, but you see nothing because you are busy trolling people on social media that you don't even like.

Are you keeping your friends close and your frenemies closer so you can keep an eye on them? What? Huh? Who does that? Everyone! Including politicians. Oh you bet your ass.

Maybe you are so unaware of your surroundings that you don't even question the 'jobs report' that comes out every Friday that makes absolutely NO SENSE to the real economy.

Maybe the emptied, closed, defunct and bankrupt businesses are not even crossing your mind because you know, 'the jobs report' says thousands of jobs are being added. Maybe you trust what 'they' the stock market is telling you about your investments, all the while you are STILL NOT seeing the closures all around you while you sit in the car playing on your phone waiting for the kids to finish their extracurricular activities. You hear but you don't see.

Gosh, something is NOT making sense. The 'jobs report', the 'stock market' is NOT matching what is going on around you, with services fees going up, eggs, butter and everything else rising in price.

And what about those nine (9) other cashiers? Where did they go? And what about all of those businesses that are emptied, closed, defunct and bankrupt? Where are those jobs? And 666iden tells us unemployment is the lowest in 50 years. COME ON MAN! I don't know about you, but I have eyes and intuition.

Now see, I have to look at this with my Dr. Standley eyeballs and say, "Something is not adding up. The signs and symptoms of the 'State of the Union' do not match."

So maybe you are now 'feeling' that something is not quite right and things are not adding up. Maybe you felt the prodrome (intuition) of Mercury conjunct Pluto back on February 2, 2023 and started digging a little bit deeper. Maybe you are now feeling the need to turn stealth and fly under the radar. Why? If everything is okay, why would you feel the need to be stealth? Because your intuition is telling you that something is amiss, not quite right.

This STRONG sense of intuition you have to turn into Secret Agent 007 will have you digging quietly and rooting around until February 18, 2023. Also understand that others, entities, companies and government are all being affected, impacted and using Mercury conjunct Pluto as well. How's that make you feel?

Can you say, "Chinese Spy Balloon"? or whatever the alphabet news wants you to call it. It wasn't exactly stealth though, was it?

I will be back after I teach my two (2) yoga classes today - Gentle Flow (9:30 AM EST) and S-T-R-E-T-C-H (11:00 AM EST).

When I get back, I will address the upcoming Pluto in Capricorn at 29 degrees, which hits tomorrow for the 1st of three (3) direct hits and I will address . . . trolls, keep your friends close and your enemies closer. You might take a page out of some politicians playbook. Don't tell me you don't know what I'm talking about . . . don't you do this on social media?

GET YOUR SOLAR RETURN! When the Sun 'Returns' to the same sign, degree and minute as when you were born

Fri. Feb. 10, 2023 Applying degrees begin February 2, 2023 Exact on Feb. 10, 2023 at 12:16 PM EST Separating degrees end on February 18, 2023

Oh and the 'finger twitch' that I have referred to twice thus far. Well it goes like this. Michael J. Fox has a new movie coming out called, 'STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie'. It's a documentary based on his Life, which includes his personal Life, his career, his alcoholism and his Parkinson's Disease.

I saw an interview about this movie and at one point Michael J. Fox is laying in bed after a night of drinking, and as he wakes-up as the Sun beams in and catches his eyes. He draws his hand up to his face to block out the rays of the Sun and he notices that his left pinky finger was twitching. That was the prodrome, the early 'sign' of his diagnosis. It was a message, from the future. It is interesting that the most bankable years of his Life came from a series of movies based on 'the future' (Back to the Future). "When it's the Truth, it shows up everywhere!"

So folks, these aspects, when you see them in applying (approaching) degrees, you should be seeing, feeling, experiencing, intuiting, noticing messages, from the future, that something is coming down the pipe. Do you see? That is how wonderful Astrology is. The aspects give you a wonderful peek into the future, without necessarily telling you the entire movie. You see, every person has 'free will', which can change events at any time. The movie is still going to play, but the ending has a lot to do with our choices, actions and reactions.

We are entering a crucial period of time that used to be our future, but now is present time. Back in 2008 when Pluto first entered Capricorn, we were contemplating the next 16 years of our future and what it might look like. Who could have imagined that it would roll out as it did? When I wrote the Pluto in Capricorn write-up, I caught all kinds of hell, grief, angst, accusation and head-rolling sassiness from the peanut gallery. Fast foward to today, as it turns out, my writing was actually pretty tame, but back then, my write-up seemed brutal and out of the realm of possibility.

It's like when Pluto was in Sagittarius, who could have imagined that anyone would have crashed two (2) planes into the World Trade Center? Sane thinking brains could not imagine that because sane brains don't think that way. Then came Pluto in Capricorn and it was hard to believe that Life would roll out as it has, which will not complete itself until November 18, 2024.

Now we are nearly one (1) month away from Pluto entering Aquarius (groups, friends, the masses, Congress), as it will zip back and forth in and out of retrograde motion throughout 2023 and 2024. Pluto! Hell! Evil!

Did you catch that? Did I say Congress? Well folks, ya' better get all 'Stealth 007' while this aspect is hot because it lasts until February 18, 2023. Interesting. If you have been keeping up with the home page of this website, and you have been reading RED FONT ADDENDUMS at the bottom of some Daily Horoscope pages, then you know that the Supreme Court is reconsidering the Brunson Lawsuit to give them a hearing. That conference is on February 17, 2023, which is one day before the separating degrees of Mercury conjunct Pluto end on February 18, 2023.

Well, we knew that the Supreme Court would give the Brunson Lawsuit another chance . . . why? BECAUSE PLUTO WILL BE MOVING INTO AQUARIUS!!!

Folks, I have posted many times over the past handful of years, and most recently back in late September . . . namely September 30, 2022 and October 1, 2022 and several times after that and even this year (2023) that Congress will in fact, get a face lift.

Aquarius rules CONGRESS! Aquarius rules the Senate, Aquarius rules the House, Aquarius rules Congress! Pluto is the planet of 'the purge'. This is beyond detox folks. Talk about draining the swamp! Remember that tagline from PRESIDENT Trump. It's going to happen! And the Brunson Lawsuit is not yet completed and there is another one coming on the heels of that lawsuit. And did you know that you can take the Brunson names off and file your own lawsuit against Congress? You sure can.

Folks, you really need to pay attention to the prodrome of these aspects (Mercury conjunct Pluto) and transits (Pluto in Capricorn, Pluto in Aquarius) because you should not only be feeling the symptom of them, you should be seeing the signs of them way early on, if in fact you are paying attention and not sitting in your car scrolling your social media. GEEZ!

Look around you! Where are all of these jobs going? Where are those nine (9) cashiers from Target working now? And the Buffalo Wild Wings Restaurant across the street? Where are those employees? You want me to go on? Well there is the Office Depot in the same huge parking lot that is now closed too. Oh keep going? Dress Barn is out of business too. This is all in the same monster size parking lot near me. Where are all of those jobs? And I'm supposed to believe a concocted 'jobs report' when they can't even give accurate Covid numbers.

Even Dr. Birx (scarf lady) said in her book that at the end of the day, they were just making up numbers because they were basically flying by the seat of their pants. Damn, stop being so gullible people!!!

The prodrome is the 'finger twitch' of the future. YOU ARE receiving insight, but whether you use hindsight and insight to give you foresight to see the future is another story.

If you are still not prepping, if you are still not seeing what is real, something is seriously wrong. While you may not want to hear anything negative, that type of thinking is NOT going to feed your kids. Lack of information feeds no one.

You really need to do some 'Stealth 007' homework and get caught up because once SHTF, we are all going to be 'in the dark' at some level. Haven't you read the Pluto in Capricorn write-up . . . Capricorn rules darkness.

I'll be back again. I need to get up and walk around. I haven't even talked about being 'Stealth 007' and being #Frienemies. I'll get to that after I give my ass a rest.

I mentioned on Fakebook to #HunkerDown, which I think #LockDown2020 was just practice.

My Scorpion King is a social butterfly and wanted to go out . . . so I stopped 'thinking', made notes, got dressed and we went out. I'm continuing on tomorrow with #Frienemies and #HunkerDown tomorrow.

As a side note, look at the list of 2023 Planetary Retrogrades to the right. Notice that as of January 18, 2023, there are NO PLANETS RETROGRADE up until April 21, 2023 when Mercury will Retrograde 'again'.

So you can expect a lot of awareness, quickness, steadfast forward change, from the masses as they begin to awaken from their slumber-fairy-dust-sleep. There's going to be a lot of, "Oh sh!t".

This is the time to press on the gas and cram as much productivity you can in a short period of time. Oh right up my alley. Cram 55 lbs. in a 5 lb. can.

Folks, it is time to put on your skates because it's a power play. All the skaters are on the ice and you have a chance to score some points with the Universe.

Remember the quote from Wayne Gretzky, the greatest hockey player of all time? "I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been."

Cram as much as you can and get as much accomplished as you can before April 21, 2023. We will take a look back then at today's writing when the time comes.
