sun-saturnSun in Aquarius will square Saturn in Scorpio at 2:57 PM EST / 11:57 AM PST

Grab your charts.  If you need a copy of yours, you can get one for free on my website.   If you have any planets around 20-24 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius then this astrological energy will be of increased significance to you.

Are you feeling discouraged?  Held back?  Denied the life that you want to live?  If so, you are not alone!  We all go through periods of restrictions, obstacles, discouragement, and we feel that we are beating ourselves against the wall hoping that we can get through to the other side.  We all go through it.

Three years ago, I was at a turning point in my life.  The world around me had changed in a way that I could no longer manage myself or my business the way that I had managed it up to that point.  I was at a breaking point, and although I had achieved a lot in my 40 years on the planet, I fell into a despair that ultimately changed my life.  My fears got me to where I was, but I was not going to let them rule me forever.  In the process of this change, I had to get busy with the art of living.

On Tuesday, we have an extremely frustrating aspect — The Sun in Aquarius will square Saturn in Scorpio.  This aspect can be depressive, very difficult to handle, and can lead to enormous frustrations.  You may feel held back by others, by life, or even by your lack of taking personal responsibility.  Your energy may be low and you may fall into the depths of despair.  I am going to be blunt – this aspect is not easy.   However, this energy is necessary for our personal soul growth and evolution.

Rob Hand writes the following in his book, “Planets in Transit”:

“The purpose of discouragement is to reveal weaknesses in your conception of yourself and show where you must work to gain greater confidence in yourself.” (Hand pg. 76)

I found this sentence to be very enlightening.  I have read Hand’s book numerous times as an astrologer or astrological student, it is one of the cornerstone textbooks that any practicing or student astrologer should have on their shelves.  However, I had never looked at discouragement (possibly because I was not ready) in this manner.

Today, we have an opportunity to look at our personal conception of ourselves.  How do you see yourself on the most basic level?  Are you where you want to be in life?  Are your beliefs about yourself accurate or are they based on fears that may be limiting you?  In order to work with Saturn, we must get deep and often get our hands dirty in the darkest corners of our psyche.  In many ways, we are required under this transit to refine ourselves and become more real in order to achieve personal fulfillment.  By going through this inner process we will find our personal authenticity and reclaim our dignity.

Is It Over Yet?

June 26, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

“Is it over yet?”   I have answered this question multiple times over the past month, and each time I can hear the horror in people’s voices when I answer, “not anytime soon!”   It’s been a rough road since the beginning of June when the current eclipse cycle began.  Week after week we are being bombarded with very intensive astrological energies with no end in sight.

By the way, you have seen nothing; this week is going to be INTENSE! Buckle your seat belts — hazardous conditions ahead.

The Astrology:

Your major weather player this week is the Sun.  The Sun currently is in emotionally fluid Cancer.   Under normal circumstances, the Sun provides us with the ability to shine, be ourselves, and be individual.   He gives us the ability to know ourselves and remain loyal to the truth that lives within our hearts.   When the Sun has positive outlets from other planets, those planets provide us with a path to express our specialness.  However, when the Sun is afflicted (fancy word for difficult to express itself), our ability to shine can feel stymied, and we may feel pressured to conform to others or the collective consensus.  In fact, the urge to be unique and special can be threatening to others, who in turn may criticize or envy another’s sense of individuality.

As with the last few Cosmic Weather Forecasts, this forecast will continue to be challenging.  The Sun will be highly afflicted as it squares Uranus in Aries, opposes Pluto in Capricorn, and then squares Saturn in Libra.  In the midst of this intensive solar energy will be a Solar Eclipse on July 1 (I will focus exclusively on the Eclipse in a future blog) forming a cardinal grand cross.  If you are dizzy after reading all that, join the club!  I am dizzy thinking about it.

Your Cosmic Weather Forecast

Each week, I attempt to look at the current astrological signature and ask, “What is the lesson in this?”  What are the planets trying to tell us, and more importantly how do we understand this energy to make sense of it in a productive manner?  After all, what would be the use of knowing the energies of the planets if we could not use them to our advantage!

What can we learn from a grand cross?  A grand cross is an accumulation of astrological energies that have manifested over a period of time that have a profound influence on the collective.  Since they do not occur with regular frequency, they tend to bring about life altering energies.   Our natural tendency is to attempt to defend ourselves against their (the planets) onslaught, yet this only works for so long till we are forced to make particular changes and decisions that we have little choice in.  In many ways, if we are heavily influenced by these energies (major configurations such as Sun, Moon, or Ascendant in cardinal signs such as Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn) it is going to feel like we are being pulled in many directions until we hit “rock bottom” because there is no easy route out or any quick fix to our problems.  In fact, the intensity of our problems will persist until we make an active decision to change what we are doing, which might ultimately include a different path.

This week you will notice areas of your life that need changing.  What areas do you feel frustrated (Sun square Saturn) in?  Where do you feel obstacles are hindering (Sun square Saturn) your movement?  Are there areas of your life where you are reacting impulsively (Sun square Uranus) with knee jerk reactions?  Where do you feel worried, paranoid, obsessive, or uneasy (Sun oppose Pluto) in your life?   The areas of our lives that become highlight give us a hint about what changes we need to make in our lives to make them free of conflict and less stressful.

In Kabbalah, we are taught that what we see is only a small (very small) part of the big picture.   Often we are so afraid of change that we stay stuck in our current patterns much to our own dismay.   This week we are provided (via the stress of the aspects) an opportunity to see the bigger picture.  Often the scary change is for our better good, and often open doors and opportunities that would not be available to us.  The only condition is that we are brave enough to see.

Tarot Tune-Up:  Shuffle your favorite Tarot or Oracle deck.   Ask the following question, “Despite my current obstacles and frustrations, how can I best let my light shine?”   Pull 3-cards.  Let me know what you pulled!
