You know the saying “I’m out in Timbuktu?” Well…Robby and Andy are where Timbuktu is. Mali.
The Dakar Rally big wig boss’s decided to cancel the two Néma-Timbuktu and Timbuktu-Néma stages, scheduled for the today and tomorrow, after the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised against running the 10th and 11th stages.
In spite of the extensive surveillance and the guarantees provided by the Mali authorities,
this precautionary measure is vital in safeguarding the security of the competitors.
After the sporting teams of the rally considered an alternative solution, a loop stage from Néma to Néma, including a timed sector of 376 kilometres, which is what was run today. Tomorrow, the competitors will enjoy half a rest day, and will then take to the road for a liaison stage of approximately 280 km towards Ayoun-el-Atrous in Mauritania, from where the next start of the rally will start on 18 January, heading for Kayes in Mali.
Robby’s ‘scope just get ‘s better and better. This is his year. Period. Robby and Andy are 8th place overall as of today.
Here are the scope’s for Robby, Andy and Team Dakar USA for tomorrow:
Robby Gordon, born 2 January 1969
Sun Conjunction Mercury
exact at 14:03
activity period from 16 January 2007 to 18 January 2007.
Theme: Getting across
Today you are likely to have many more conversations with people. Certainly this is an opportunity to get your point of view across to others, and you may be more inclined to talk than to listen. The nature of this influence makes you most 
concerned with matters that apply directly to yourself or that speak to you through your personal experience.You are more involved in examining yourself, stating your position with respect to others and announcing your intentions than in examining the world. You initiate communication, you talk to others and you express your point of view. Nevertheless, it is important to have a thorough understanding of the people and conditions you live with. Being excessively involved in yourself and your own ideas will weaken the effectiveness of what you do today.
Mercury Trine Uranus exact at 10:09
activity period from 17 January 2007 to 18 January 2007.
Theme: Untried and True
This is a very stimulating influence that will make you feel more alive and awake mentally than at any other time. Although your thinking may be somewhat lacking in care and discipline, you will make up for this in the scope of your intuition. This is an excellent day to tackle some problem that you have been unable to solve with tried and true solutions. New ideas will come more rapidly than usual. Solutions that have eluded you will be obvious, and your vision will have considerable breadth and scope. Any new phenomenon will interest you, and the idea of traveling to foreign places will be especially appealing. If at all possible, break with your usual routine and go off somewhere, at least for the day. If you do, you will be glad for the freshness that such a break introduces into your life.
Sun Sextile Neptune exact at 23:55
activity period from 17 January 2007 to 19 January 2007.
Theme: What it all means
This influence enables you to sense energies in the people and circumstances around you more keenly than usual. You are more aware of others’ needs and more willing to help them out. Others will be aware of your receptivity, and friends and neighbors may ask you for assistance. But you will not find this irksome, because service to others is a satisfactory form of self-expression for you now. You want to do it and you will do it. Spiritual and mystical concerns are likely to claim your attention much more than usual. Today it is not enough to understand what something is; you also have to know what it means. This is an excellent day to withdraw from your normal routine and meditate upon the concerns that are important to you.
Moon Conjunction Sun activity period from 17 January 2007 to 18 January 2007. Theme:A burst of energy
Weak, transient effect: Today during the day you experience something like your personal “new Moon,” a time when your mind and body are recharged for the month ahead. Your feelings may now be very strongly influenced by the larger emotional patterns that dominate your life. Usually this influence is felt as a burst of energy in which will, physical vitality and emotions all work together harmoniously. The split between mind and feelings that often plagues us all is not noticeable now, and your relations with others, particularly in interactions with women, will probably work more smoothly than usual. This is an outward reflection of your inner harmony. Group efforts are very favorably affected by this influence, because it gives you greater sensitivity to the feelings of people around you.
Moon in the 10th House
activity period from 18 January 2007 to 19 January 2007.
Theme:Emotional display
This influence brings professional and business concerns into focus, but in a way that will test you. Your most intimate and personal life is on public display more than usual now, and you may find it difficult to hide certain facts about yourself. Obviously you are best off if you have nothing to hide. Even if you usually have reservations about emotional display in public, you are likely to indulge in such displays now. For example, you might have a public argument with a loved one or partner, or you might have a public outburst of good emotions. Perhaps you will want to help someone whom you know through your job and make the relationship something more than professional. But if it is to your disadvantage to blur the distinction between business and personal relationships, be careful, because you will tend to do this.
Moon Square Uranus
active only on 17 January 2007.
Theme: A bit wild
Weak, transient effect: This morning the quality of time arouses an independent and rebellious spirit in you. You are inclined to do exactly the opposite of what someone suggests and to reject whatever others say simply because they said it. For the same reasons you are impatient with restraints, duties and responsibilities. There is a great need to be free and to do something very different, maybe even a little bit wild. You have a strong craving for excitement with this influence, and you may act in ways that you would never consider in a more sober mood. This could be either good or bad, of course, depending on how conservative you usually are and how unusual or outrageous the action. For some people this can be a very liberating influence. For others it is a bit too much.
Moon Square Jupiter
active only on 17 January 2007.
Theme: The loftier side
Weak, transient effect: This is usually a very positive influence, making you feel very benevolent and generous toward those around you. This morning your spirit is inclined toward contemplation of the loftier aspects of life. You are not concerned with the nasty little details that make life less than it should be, although you are aware of them. But you simply cannot see any point in paying any attention to them. Emotionally you feel quite good, for this influence promotes optimism and positive thinking. At times this influence indicates self- righteousness and smug arrogance, as if you considered yourself as the embodiment of social truth and wisdom. This attitude may not be entirely conscious on your part, but it may be subtly evident in your phrasing or in an unspoken attitude toward others.
Andy Grider, born 28 July 1973
Mercury Sextile Neptune
activity period from 17 January 2007 to 18 January 2007.
Theme: Dreaminess
This influence stimulates the imagination in a very positive way. Your sensitivity and awareness of the subtler aspects of the world around you is greatly increased, and your intuition is much stronger than usual. Sometimes this influence accompanies a period of dreaminess, in which you spend much time fantasizing. In your contacts with people, you have a much clearer sense of what is going on in others’ minds. If you can keep your perceptions straight in your head, you will be astonished by the insights about people that this influence can bring. However, during this time it is often difficult to keep your intuitions sorted out. Clear thinking is not one of your strong points today, and in fact you should try not to use your rational mind very much. Rely more on your inner senses and feelings.
Moon Trine Venus
active only on 17 January 2007.
This morning this influence brings about pleasant feelings between you and everyone around you. It is a good time for being with friends or out having a good time. You enjoy everyone around you and they enjoy you. Similarly you will enjoy good food and drink now, but be careful not to overdo it. During this time you will tend to take things into yourself, so it is easy to overindulge. This is not a good time for getting very much work done, because it often brings out a lazy streak. One exception to this is that you may feel like working to beautify or otherwise improve your home. You need beautiful surroundings, and you will work to get them. This is a good time for love relationships. This influence by itself is too fleeting to start a major relationship, but it certainly is a help.
Andy’s moon is at Natal angle exactly at 20:15. I don’t get to see this very often. It happen’s to all of us…however I just haven’t seen it in the Driver’s ‘scopes.
If he were a woman trying to have a baby, this would be the time to do it. This information is used in Cosmo-Biology, a theory that claims that this is the most fertile phase in a woman’s monthly cycle. Some women use this theory for birth control.
As much faith as I have in Astrology…I wouldn’t use it for birth control.
So tomorrow, a little rest…and then:
GAS ON!!
RABBIT STEW FOR DINNER!!
