Was it symbolic or ironic that the very day that Chiron, the Wounded Healer, enters Pisces, the leading female figure of the 1960s civil rights movement, 98-year-old Dorothy Height, dies?  The last time that Chiron was in Pisces was 1960 to 1969 coinciding with the rise of the civil rights movement and the passage of the Civil Rights Act of of 1964. Pisces at its most noble expression represents Divine Love and compassion and the transcendence of physical boundaries.  Chiron symbolizes our deepest wounds and attempts to heal them.

I think it was symbolic that this woman, whose life work embodied and depicted so much in the way of racial healing for the collective, should die on the day Chiron re-entered Pisces, as it shows that we have come full circle back to the past, several decades later. As a society we are still dealing with issues of racial inequality, although thanks to leaders like Dorothy Height, much progress has also been made. Still much more needs to be done and perhaps with Chiron here again in Pisces, we will see the dissolution of more of the barriers that divide us, and not just racial barriers. We need to also work on ending bias and discrimination based on sexual orientation, religion, age, as well as gender.

Also today, the D.C. Council approved a bill to allow chronically ill patients to use marijuana with some stipulations. Of course, the medical marijuana issue has been ongoing for the last few years in various cities across the country, but when I heard about this story today I immediately felt that with Chiron here in Pisces now, the sign which rules drugs, including marijuana, that it will probably not be too long before medical marijuana will be universally legalized as a treatment method. I also think Neptune entering Pisces will also have impact on this area.

This whole marijuana issue, too, in a roundabout way, takes us back into the sixties again, in some respects.  Back then, with Chiron in Pisces, there was the popularization of psychedelic drugs as a way to transcend the limitations of the physical body and free our minds. More and more people also began smoking pot then. There was also widespread fear, especially among the over 30 crowd, that pot-smoking would lead to becoming addicted to other kinds of  drugs.  Now fast forward to today, and marijuana is starting to be viewed in a whole new way, more along the lines of a medicinal drug. It all strikes me as kind of ironic.  How about you?

Patricia Thompson’s Horoscope April 20, 2010: Creating Value

The Sun enters consolidating Taurus.  It’s time to focus our energies more upon building things of value and permanence.  It’s also time to discern and evaluate the existing structures around us to gauge their ongoing purpose and relevance in our lives.  We may want to think about pruning away what no longer holds meaning for us or for what we no longer have time for.

For example, we may enjoy certain things or activities, however, due to shifting priorities, we may need to phase some stuff out now, as we become more aware that we only have so much time and energy at our disposal.  Taurus energy is all about focusing and building upon our successes. It is very practical, material, and no-nonsense, and prefers everything plain and simple.

With the Moon in nesting Cancer, we may want to focus our thoughts now on finding value in our homes. How do we regard our homes?  What do they say about us? Are they warm and inviting? Do they reflect our personalities? Do they give us peace? If not, why not?

Working from my home daily, I especially resonate to the following quote by Harold B. Lee:

“The most important work you and I will ever do will be within the walls of our own homes.”

Is that also true for you?

Since spring is a time of renewal, a period when we are symbolically born again, it is a perfect time to rejuvenate our living quarters. To think about pitching items we no longer need. When we have objects in our house that no longer speak to us, they rob us of energy. Taking them out of our households, reconfigures the energy around us in a positive way. Also, with Saturn presently opposite Uranus, we are being urged by the cosmos to discard whatever is outworn (Saturn) in order to grow (Uranus).

Additionally, with the Sun, Mercury and Venus all in the money and possession sign of Taurus, we may want to have a yard sale and sell the things we no longer want, while pocketing some cash in the process. The Taurus part in all of us would like that.

Wounded Healer Chiron enters Pisces today. The last time it was in this sign was from 1960 to 1969 coinciding with the peace and civil rights movements and free love and hippies. Pisces at its most noble expression represents Divine Love and compassion and the transcendence of physical boundaries. Back in the 60s, psychedelic drugs became popular with many young people trying to dissolve the hold of the physical world around them.

I have a feeling this time around with Chiron in Pisces, there may be far-reaching advances in medicine and perhaps more focus on natural and or homeopathic treatments, especially since spiritual Neptune will also be entering Pisces in the near future.

I also think we will be focusing more and more of our attention on the sea and our water supply, which is also ruled by Pisces.  Also on oil.  Hopefully, Chiron will help us to both heal ourselves and the planet by living greener and more naturally.

Before I go today, I wanted to let you also know that this will be my last daily astrology report. I intend to continue blogging on astrology but no longer on a daily basis. This decision has basically to do with what I blogged about today, and the importance of  personally finding value in what I do, as well as feeling the need to reset my priorities in wake of time and energy constraints.

Writing a blog daily is very time-consuming, especially with astrology, there is usually a lot of research involved, if you’re going to do it right. Another important issue for me is the matter of rewrites. Writing daily doesn’t allow for any incubation time for my thoughts and ideas.  I’m the type of person who likes to write and then edit and rewrite.  It’s not really possible to do this when you are putting out a daily blog. So, anyway, I think in the long run, I will be able to serve you better, as well as myself better, by focusing more on the quality of my blogs, and less on the quantity.

Peace and love, everyone!  Enjoy your Tuesday!
