The images bring the planet so close, show the importance of his henchman Charon, the dark planet’s “heart”, and his handsome craggy features. The astrology? Well, this mid-month we’ve been having a pretty tough opposition from Mars-Mercury to Pluto. On the day of the closest approach, July 14, the dynamic duo were sandwiched between the Sun and the Moon, all in watery and imaginative Cancer. Now Cancer is the sign of home and tribe, so you could see this […]
