Mutable Grand Cross: Win Some, Lose Some

Mutable grand crossThe moon in Sagittarius will hook up with Venus in Virgo, Mars and Jupiter in Gemini and Saturn in Pisces to form a Grand Cross on August 14, 2024. You can click the chart to enlarge.

It’s hard to say if this is good or bad.  Most likely it’s both as these are Mutable signs.  It looks a bit like a game of chance, but it also looks like a trap. Trapped in a game of chance?

What I can’t tell here, is how high are the stakes? I suspect this value is also variable.

How you fare will depend on both luck (Jupiter) and skill (Mars).  Discipline and/or fear (Saturn) are also part of this equation.  The Grand Trine in Fire, working in the background, will give Air and Fire types an advantage.

My sister has a Mutable Grand Cross in her chart. You may get further insight by reading about it here:

Living With A Grand Cross

The moon in Sagittarius should help keep people buoyed. Combined with Jupiter’s involvement, whatever happens, some will be  “good sport”.  Others will be mega-pissed (Mars Jupiter). I’m not suggesting that won’t be warranted.

All in all, super interesting week ahead.  Should be nearly impossible to be bored.

How does this look to you?  Does it hit your chart?

  1. I am going in for an OP on the 15th. I chose the Merc retro deliberately cause it is a long overdue thing that benefits from the RE in retrograde. Mars will be the tools used and Jupiter the guy who uses them 🙂 Looking at the chart of the 14th it is intriguing since the Moon is conjunct my Saturn and Sun opposed by Mars and Jupiter while Uranus is opposing my natal Mars. Chiron and the Sun are in liberal trines with my mutable Sun in Sag, actually in between Saturn and Sun, loosely connected to both. That should be good…
    Seems to me like a good use of a mutable grand cross… we’ll see.

    1. I like this attitude. I had knee surgery with Mercury Rx too. I’d been walking with a limp for 6 months at that point. The transits looked a little hairy but everything went great. I kept pawing the oxygen mask off my face and the doctor kept trying to convince me to keep it on. Then I tried to sing along with Ozzy Osbourne playing in the nurse’s bay, but my throat was fucked up from being intubated so I was croaking like a frog.

      1. Glad yor OP went well, thank you for sharing! I have found that I’m doing well with mercury R, my natal mercury is R, feels familiar or I’m used to it. Also doing well with oppositions of transiting planets. A grand cross is two oppositions stabilised by squares, sometimes that stability is uncomfortable but sometimes it’s needed.

  2. Grandson’s 20th birthday on August 14 10 days ago he was working with his dad cutting some big roof shingles wooden ones and sliced open his hand just had the stitches taken out anxious for him to have a good birthday to fall back into work as busy for me makes happy Summers difficult where we live with the population and the heat so I’m gonna take the reading as one of great hope ultimately we look forward to today but it goes so damn quick and then the night offer us rest and healing to pop up the next day and try it again so when one day doesn’t work hopefully the next day will grandson says I give him anxiety from the gecko. I think I need skim down my coffee. I love the coffee. I wake so early and that moment of grabbing a cuppa Joe is a little social experiment for me and then I’m off and running. I hope all are well and hopeful and peaceful.

  3. I’ve got all those things going on in my chart and I feel like a lot of different pieces are activated and have no idea how to work with them. Time for a look-see with you, Elsa, hopefully later this week. <3

  4. Mars conjunct Jupiter as mega pissed is spot on. The conjunction in my 9/10th opposes my N Sun to the minute. This morning all my websites crashed after some defective plugin updates crashed them. Support can’t tell me why the connection from my back up server to my main server is blocked. We have 36 degrees here for 4 weeks solid and more in sight, making my office room upstairs practically unusable. To say I feel like punching in the head anything that looks like an earthly manifestation of Mercury Rx would be an understatement. Good luck everyone. Suck on ice cube, punch some pillows and don’t end up in bracelets.
