The week 29th September – 5th October

We are still riding the equinox/eclipse aftershocks: the Sun remains in early Libra, the Moon moves from First Quarter into waxing-gibbous (building toward the early-October full moon), and the short-term sky is dominated by disruptive Uranus in Taurus (retrograde), institution-testing Saturn and Jupiter tensions, and an intelligence/disclosure window while Mercury moves active in Virgo near heavy Capricorn contacts. In plain terms: the week is a visibility and testing window — humanitarian and military crises will be exposed more loudly, sudden infra-shocks (ports, supply lines) remain a high risk, and legal/institutional moves will carry unusual weight.

In the Ukraine and Europe. Expect an intense run of military escalation and retaliatory strikes this week, with the immediate risk concentrated on Kyiv, Crimea and Black Sea logistics: large, coordinated missile/drone barrages (as seen at the end of September) will likely continue to be used by Russia to degrade Ukrainian air defences and critical infrastructure, and will provoke temporary airspace closures and NATO readiness measures. Geo-Zenith reading: Mercury–Pluto style exposures (intelligence, satellite forensics, targeted strikes) will make precise attacks and their documentation the week’s defining images; Uranus-Taurus pressure on maritime and port nodes raises the chance of disruptive knock-on effects to regional shipping and energy flows. Prepare for sustained headlines about damage to civilian infrastructure and growing political pressure in European capitals.

Gaza, Israel and the Red Sea arc. Diplomatic theatre at the UN and the equinox’s moral spotlight mean the Gaza humanitarian crisis and cross-border strikes will continue to dominate political oxygen. Expect renewed media pressure, emergency appeals, and possibly more targeted strikes or naval actions that ripple out into the Red Sea/merchant shipping story: Houthi attacks and reprisals against ships remain likely, keeping the southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden under acute commercial stress. Geo-Zenith overlay: Uranus in Taurus activates port and fuel lines; the eclipse/equinox disclosure factor amplifies images from hospitals and convoys, pushing faster diplomatic reactions (recognitions, emergency votes, calls for corridors) but not necessarily immediate relief on the ground

Several small convoys of aid ships are attempting to break the maritime blockade. Naval interceptions are highly likely in the next few days. I fear for the flotilla. Mars is reaching a square to Pluto at the galactic centre—an aggressive configuration that often coincides with military brinkmanship and sudden confrontations at sea. Expect tense stand-offs, live-streamed confrontations, and rapid diplomatic fallout before the first week of October.

The Horn, Sudan and Sahel fragilities. The Horn’s fractures — Ethiopia/Tigray tensions and Eritrean alignments — and Sudan’s simmering ethnic and urban–rural violence will feed fresh displacement and aid-access crises this week. Expect arrests, crackdowns and restricted media reporting in Ethiopia, and worsening civilian tolls and blocked aid convoys in Sudan/Darfur; politically, Sahel states will continue to press anti-institutional narratives (legal ruptures, withdrawals from international courts) that make coordinated humanitarian response harder. Saturn’s institutional test and Uranus’s resource-line shocks combine to make logistics, borders and water/food distribution the immediate pressure points — the week’s planetary map lends more force to rapid, unexpected breaks in supply chains and a surge of verified (and shocking) testimony that will drive diplomatic statements – though action may be delayed.

Realistically: the most probable scenario for 29 Sept–5 Oct is “more visibility, more shocks, more diplomatic theatre.” Expect at least one major, widely shared disclosure (forensic imagery, verified satellite footage or medical documentation) that forces ministers and parliaments to act rhetorically; expect sharp military exchanges in Ukraine to continue and for maritime/infrastructure incidents to spike in Red Sea approaches. That is the harsh reading — but the same pattern gives leverage: Mercury/Pluto disclosure + Jupiter/Saturn institutional pressure equals a window where legal, financial and commercial levers bite hard. Practical hope: coordinated, well-timed forensic releases, immediate pressure on insurers/shipping firms, and targeted sanctions/enforcement aimed at elite revenue channels can produce faster, concrete recalibration from rulers than moral outrage alone. Use the waxing-gibbous/full-moon publicity window to synchronize evidence releases and legal moves; that combination is the clearest path this week from crisis exposure toward short, verifiable pauses and relief corridors.

There is so much coming to a head now, all over the globe, in every possible aspect of human culture – that I can only hope our leaders and institutions can make the right choices and do it fast – though, realistically this is something I doubt will happen – our choice? Be nice, be kind – take care of each other and stay open minded.


3I Atlas trajectory

The solar system is being traversed by an interstellar visitor of extraordinary proportions, known as 3I/ATLAS. Unlike the brief flyby of its predecessors, this object moves along a trajectory almost parallel to the ecliptic plane, threading through the inner planets at a retrograde inclination of 175 degrees. Its current velocity is around 58 kilometres per second, accelerating to roughly 68 kilometres per second as it nears perihelion on 29 October 2025. The object is enormous: estimates place its nucleus at 46 to 50 kilometres across, while its coma, rich in carbon dioxide and plasma, already spans nearly 700,000 kilometres which is half the diameter of the Sun! This dusty, electrically charged envelope renders this visitor highly active as it interacts with the solar wind and heliospheric currents, particularly during the heightened activity of our current solar maximum.

This trajectory will take it just above Mars in early October, past the asteroid belt, and later toward Jupiter by March 2026. Along the way, it will traverse the electromagnetic environment of the inner planets and their moons, and subtly influence dwarf planets such as Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Eris. Its plasma tail and ionised gases will interact with solar, ultraviolet and X-ray radiation, expanding and energising the coma, while the gravitational and magnetic fields of the planets will shape its outbound trajectory. Though no physical contact is expected with any planetary body, its presence represents a rare moment of systemic resonance, as interstellar material and electromagnetic energy thread through the solar system over the next few months.

From an astrological perspective, the geo-zenith alignments of this period intensify the already volatile planetary currents. September begins with two eclipses – the solar on the 7th and the lunar on the 18th—priming collective awareness and initiating subtle systemic shifts. We will already be aware that change is in the air. The object’s close passage to Mars coincides with a new moon and a superior conjunction with Earth, amplifying perception and reflection on structural and emotional frameworks. Its perihelion near the Sun acts as an energetic fulcrum, enhancing interactions across the Virgo-Pisces axis, while its outbound movement past Jupiter in March resonates with expansion, insight, and recalibration of broader societal and philosophical patterns. Dwarf planets and inner moons act as secondary nodes in this network, subtly modulating the energetic and astro-magnetic interplay. The world will be so changed – as will we.

3I/ATLAS is not just a celestial visitor but a long-time catalyst, threading the solar system with interstellar energy and interacting with both planetary fields and collective consciousness. Its trajectory and electromagnetic presence provide a unique opportunity to observe the intersection of cosmic physics and geo-zenith astrology, a rare alignment of astronomical and systemic resonance that will unfold over the coming months, leaving subtle yet tangible imprints on both our solar environment and our planetary awareness. We may even get more images and readings from our satellites and telescopes – so keep watching.
