This fortnight we continue with the Sun in the sign of Scorpio. The Moon has just passed its’ peak, and is on the wane until the New Moon in Scorpio on the 17th. Venus also moving into Scorpio on the 8th, and the highlight of the fortnight, Saturn square Pluto on the 15th. Remember, we are in the midst of a number of oppositions between Saturn and Uranus, which will pull into formation with Pluto, on their final pass in July/August next year, by forming a T-square. This time then, is a catalyst for events which will climax in eight months (July/August 2010). The square between Uranus and Pluto, passes in and out of alignment through to 2017. Tension will remain, and there will be no quick fixes, or overnight solutions, to long term problems. This is the time to implement radical change, and to begin the long process of restoration. Much of this restoration of our lives and communities will involve, new innovations in all areas, which has come about by those prepared to think out of the box; to experiment, and to boldly step forward with a pioneering attitude. Those willing to leave the past behind, will benefit the most. The healing and soothing balm, to all of this, is the conjunction between Chiron and Venus. Which will remain in place through to the end of 2012. Jupiter joins the pair, one last time, in December. The pace of life is about to quicken folks, so better to buckle your belts, and hold onto your hats.
NEW MOON 24 Scorpio 34 November 17, 2009 03:15 a.m.
ARIES: Mars in Leo, is doing a good job, of unsettling all the Planets, currently passing through Scorpio. What this means for you, is that there will undoubtedly be some friction, in your day to day relationships. Ego could get in the way, of the need for truth. On the other hand, deception is also a possibility. Not a good time to try and nut out current problems. It’s probably a better idea, to find a healthy outlet for your energy and seek solitude as much as possible, to restore your damaged or battered ego. This time too, shall pass. The stress of the Pluto square, is driving people to act, although confusion still surrounds the issue.
TAURUS: Venus moving into Scorpio, is the catalyst for some deep and meaningful encounters, with the opposite sex. Watch out for hidden dangers though, at the end of this fortnight, when Mars and Venus collide, in a burst of fury. Although short lived, this could prove fatal, to your chances of restoring old liaisons. Words are sharp and cutting. The Pluto square is asking all of us, to bring integrity into our relationships. To balance responsibility and to harmonize, all of our activities. To do this successfully, you need to take the opinions and beliefs of others into consideration, and act from a space of commitment, to Love.
GEMINI: Mercury remains in Scorpio, until the end of this fortnight. A great time to use those penetrating and investigatory talents of yours, to uncover any unconscious behavior which is holding you back, from your full potential. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, which is currently, strongly challenged by the organizing force of Saturn in Libra. Communication can be a hindrance, at times, to the force of action itself, which naturally and spontaneously wants to occur. With that in mind, be careful to not let your mental processes, override the need for action. Stay grounded and avoid unnecessary and surplus communication.
CANCER: A great time to spring clean your house. Rid yourself of unwanted clutter in the closets, and make room for the influx of new, which is coming into your life. The movement of energy in one area, brings it to all. As you free yourself from past restrictions, you are in a position to create anew. The potential for physical movement, in your life, is high. Perhaps a journey is on the horizon. When was the last time, you visited family? Going back to your roots, could give you vital clues, to the working of your mind, and your unconscious behaviors, in life. Remember to take the good with bad, and avoid judgment.
LEO: It appears that you have the juice for many things at this time, and yet it feels like something, or someone, is always standing in your way. If frustration finds you being unreasonable, use your ability to objectify, to soothe your frayed nerves. Step outside of yourself for a moment, and stop taking things so personally. Our perception of events, is not always in alignment with the situation. Do something to cool off. When arguments do arise, diffuse them, as quickly as possible, with a little commonsense and honest communication. We all carry wounds, which get triggered from time to time. Be gentle with yourself and others.
VIRGO: If you are in need of healing, find modalities, which are kind and gentle. Slowly working and chipping away at things, is a better solution to a radical and unsettling dislodgment. At least, at this time, anyway. Old wounds, which have gone unnoticed by their dense covering, can come as a surprise, even to the most seasoned of transformational voyeurs. There is a new vista emerging on the horizon, which brings a sense of wonder and renewed inspiration, to your life. As mentioned, life is a process, without end. Relax in the present, and accept all that is transpiring in your life, and that of others, as well.
LIBRA: Venus moving into Scorpio, brings a sense of impending change into your life, and as we move into the latter part of this fortnight the impetus to do, just that, will be great. As Saturn moves into your sign, as the harbinger of restructuring, you realize that the old must go, to make way for the new. That remodeling is necessary, and that sometimes, the new takes time, to implement. You will have allies along the way, whose thinking runs parallel to your own, so there is nothing to fear. It is not like you are being left out on a limb, and to your own devices. We are all in this together, and as such, can act as support for each other.
SCORPIO: It appears that this is the time to bring some much needed order into your life. To bring balance and harmony, to those things which have slipped, almost unnoticed, out of alignment. To do this, with grace and integrity now. A little like restoring old furniture, to its’ original pristine condition. Pluto pushing you, to sensibly adjust yourself to a long term plan. As challenging as that may be, you can see the need for laying some foundations and nutting out a workable solution to your relationships, your work and your family/community life. A long range plan is not something to fear. It will actually work, in your favor.
SAGITTARIUS: Jupiter heading towards, it’s last meeting with Chiron and Neptune, bringing much needed healing to your mind and heart. Getting your mental processes in alignment with your hearts desires, and expanding your horizons, to encompass things, which were not even a part of your reality, is a tall order, even for you. The first step is always, in the recognition of what is out of balance, and that is what this fortnight, is all about. Enlightening you to the fact, that things are just not working. Mars will also come into to give you a much needed push, and added energy to boost your flagging reserves. It’s all good.
CAPRICORN: Lucky you, gets to be a major player in this fortnights configuration. Saturn as your ruler, squaring Pluto, brings a depth, in a wave of understanding, on just what you need to do, now. Saturn freshly in the sign of Libra, brings relationship to the forefront. This is all relationships, from the mundane to the most intimate. Pluto in Capricorn, is all about integrity, in all things. Bringing your personal life, and your Planet into alignment, is all a part of this enormous play. You, more than most, are feeling a deepening sense of responsibility, and with that, can be a prime motivator in your arena of friends and associates.
AQUARIUS: Uranus, for the time being, has pulled back from its liaison with Saturn, and yet as things evolve, over the coming months, you will be in store for a great deal of change, growth and deeply profound and inspiring insights. Use this time wisely, in support of your personal healing, which will set you in good stead for all that is set to transpire throughout 2010. There is an amazing sense of synchronicity that occurs, when we put out the call for anything in our lives. A heartfelt desire, will create for you, the very people, who are the best equipped to support your healing, at this time. All of us, have an ache or two, which need attention.
PISCES: The journey continues to be a healing one. What this fortnight sets in place for you, is a sense of what is to come, in the months and years ahead, and your place in the unfolding of this plan for humanity. Rest assured, that all will be revealed in its appropriate time. Planets in Scorpio, greatly assisting you to modify your life, in preparation for these coming changes. Plans are wanting to be made, taking into consideration, those that are nearest and dearest to you. Finding a happy medium, where everyone is relatively secure, is a huge ask. You are going to face some tough decisions. Let love be your guide.
