Uranus goes direct to start this fortnight, and Venus moves into Sagittarius, while Mercury changes signs to Capricorn, on the 6th. Saturn and Pluto, stay in square formation, and become exact again, on the 1st February, and again on the 21st August. During July 2010, we have Jupiter, freshly in Aries teaming up with Uranus, also new in this sign, opposing Saturn and Mars, both also at very early degrees of Libra, and all squaring Pluto, in Capricorn. As I mentioned last fortnight, we are in a process, and this began with the first Saturn/Uranus opposition, in late 2008. There will be a climax to some degree, by mid next year, although the Uranus square Pluto, stays close, for an exceptionally long time; through to 2016. It is important to remember, that the seeds for this current blossoming, were planted during the mid ‘60’s, when we were experiencing the powerful oppositional configurations, of Saturn/Chiron and Pluto/Uranus. What we are talking about here, is a revolution. A revolution on such a scale, it is unimaginable to the unconscious mind. The radical transformations, this Planet and its’ species are in for, are of a magnitude, never before experienced. If there was ever a time to awaken, then this is it. It is also the time to prioritize your life. Not in the terms of monetary value, but more in the sense of inner strength and calmness. Uranus in Aries, is apt to be creating some chaos in its’ wake over the coming years. Let those things of true value, come to the fore in your life.
NEW MOON 24 Sagittarius 40 December 16, 2009 20:03
ARIES: Make the most of this fortnight, as Mars turns retrograde later this month and for a good few weeks, at that. I guess he has to back up, just long enough, to be a key player in the main event in July 2010. There will be time to mull over your actions, during the long retrograde period and of course, you will see some results, of recent decisions, by February. So much is being taken personally at this time. What are my needs, and are they being met? The answer, to that, will more than likely, be no. Mars teams up with the Sun this fortnight, making you want to travel, long distances.
TAURUS: You will be feeling a little amorous and flirtatious this fortnight, as Venus hangs out in Sagittarius. Making a loving trine to Mars, just as he turns retrograde, will give you a lot to think about, in the relationship arena, over the coming weeks. Things will become a tad more serious by the end of the month, as the Lady of Love, moves into Capricorn, and joins Pluto. This is a great time to sow the seeds, of a new romance, or to escape for a moment, from an old one. A little reprieve from the everyday routine, is a welcome relief, even in the most intimate of relationships.
GEMINI: Mercury taking a bit of a serious tone, as she slips into Capricorn. Your thinking could be a little stifled by that big bully, Pluto, during the first half of the fortnight. Never mind, as this too, shall pass. With the retrograde period, Mercury stays in Capricorn until early February. This will be giving added fuel, to the fire of Pluto and the North Node. In that regard, it feels, like some things are just meant to be. Almost as if, it is some kind of destiny, or karmic event. There appears to be, just no avoiding some situations and events. Better to learn some patience, as it will be in high demand.
CANCER: There could be some restlessness stirring in your very soul, by the end of this fortnight. Perhaps a journey is on the cards. You could well find that your sense of belonging and family ties, is not what you had previously thought it was, and you may discover new dwellings, a new home, or community, where it would be possible for you to start afresh. Although this may not be something, that you’ve consciously considered, keep your ears, eyes and heart open, for signs, along your journey. There is no need to push or try to maneuver situations. Let it unfold, naturally.
LEO: A great time of year for you, when you are feeling positive and optimistic. These are important qualities for you to have, in the coming months and years. Foster good will, wherever you find yourself, and keep your spirits high, as well as encouraging others to do the same. You are a natural leader, when you allow yourself the space to touch your own inner riches, gifts and talents. Expand on these, and life will become a joy, and an effortless adventure, while inspiring those around you to be and do the same. Mars in Leo, giving you added confidence and charm.
VIRGO: Being the earthy person which you naturally are. you are very much supported by the Capricorn energies, and this gives you a focus and an outlet to express your organic and unassuming talents. Meanwhile, you are yourself, on a healing journey, which has you processing much deep and often hidden, motives, for your actions. We are all in this current reckoning, so no need to take it personally. You can, actually, be of great assistance, to those around you, at this time, through your honest and simple approach, to otherwise complicated matters. No need to doubt yourself.
LIBRA: If you have been feeling a bit stuck, of late, you are just about to become unstuck. There is a breath of fresh air, and an inner movement, which is prompting you to move, in the outside world, also. You may want to spend, a little time on your own, to reflect and integrate, recent happenings in your life. A good time to digest, while getting an overview, which has you looking, from the perspective of the bigger picture. This could be the time, to expand your arena of associates, and move in totally new directions. There is the possibility of relocating, for many.
SCORPIO: You will either be hammered, or you will succumb to graceful change. Getting clobbered is probably not, the better option, as there will be pain involved. Being ruled by the planet Pluto, as you are, sees you, in the spotlight over the coming years. People can, and probably will, use you as a barometer for the coming changes. How you choose to respond, is always entirely up to you. In fact, nobody is pushing you from the outside, although at times, it may feel that way. Being ruthlessly honest with yourself, is probably the best option, in all situations.
SAGITTARIUS: The noticeable changes come for you in mid-January. That doesn’t mean however, that nothing is happening until then. Get ready for a softening of your ways, even if you feel as though, you are already a gentle person. Your intuition is about to be turned up a few notches, and with that, you will feel yourself intricately connected to others, through what you intuit of their situations, and often inner pain. There is nothing to fear here, as it is not something you need to take on board, for yourself. Nor are you doing others a service, by carrying their pain.
CAPRICORN: We will reiterate the magnitude, of the coming changes, for your benefit. This is set to remind you, of the pivotal part, which you play at this juncture, as Saturn, your ruler, continues to square Pluto. If there is some inner tension, at this time, then it is to be expected, as we head into these days of unprecedented and unpredictable situations. This is not an easy call, for someone who prefers order and structure in their life. Learn to go with the flow, and to adapt to sudden changes in your life, and turbulent waters, will be much easier to charter. All is well.
AQUARIUS: Uranus moving towards its debut in Aries, mid year, has you feeling the undercurrents and the stirrings of new beginnings. You may already be getting a glimpse of what is to come, although vague, yet, at this time. Often the future comes to meet us, in present time. With your visionary skills, you are able to put this quickly into perspective, and carry on with your day. Others, may not yet be privy to the information, coming your way, at this time. That’s o.k., as there will be many people on board, when the time for action is at hand. Keep your wits about you, as you move into this next phase.
PISCES: Jupiter is moving up to meet your ruler, Neptune, this month, for their final duet. At least for this round. It will be another 12 years before these particular Siren’s call, again. She will be offering you growth and expansion, with your intuitive, telepathic and physic abilities. If these are at all confusing, it is better to find a teacher, who can offer you the skills needed to utilize these gifts. For those clearly in touch with their higher nature, these will come as an added bonus, to make life, that little bit more exciting and to deepen your compassion. Be grateful, for them.
