“If your mind carries a heavy burden of the past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.” Eckhart Tolle

COSMIC WATCH:

Old Trees In Autumnal Forest

With “mental” Mercury conjunct “cautious” Saturn, today, there can be a tendency to dwell on “what’s not working” – or what could go wrong – instead of focusing on what’s going smoothly, or on the mend. Albert Einstein once said, “Problems cannot be solved with the same mindset that created them.” Meaning that if we’re going to fix or resolve things, we must first find a way to expand our consciousness.

Interestingly, Einstein, a Pisces Sun with a Sagittarian Moon, was born with his natal Mercury in a tight conjunction with Saturn in “pioneering” Aries. Mercury-Saturn aspects, on the plus side, can often confer great powers of concentration, or allow us to think very deeply about things, as it is the nature of Saturn to narrow or refine our focus.

Additionally, Mercury-Saturn can also make us more aware of our distinctness, or separateness, from others; Saturn energy is naturally associated with a desire to set boundaries around ourselves. Also, on the shadow side, we’re potentially more sensitive, now, to perceived hurts or slights from others. Choosing our words more carefully, today, so as not to unduly offend others, might be a very good idea. Also, if we can put in an encouraging word, if we’re around someone who’s down, that may also go a long way in helping to turn their day around. While Mercury-Saturn can often incline some of us to want to be alone, now, with our own thoughts, for others it can be a time when serious discussions are broached.

Mercury conjunct Saturn is an excellent period to work on projects that require attention to detail, or research. This influence can also be favorable for studying history, with Saturn ruling the past.

Question for Today: What problem in your life, now, may actually be a “gift in disguise?”

Astrology November 24, 2014: Mars Quinqunx Jupiter

“Everything comes to us that belongs to us if we create the capacity to receive it.” Rabindranath Tagore

COSMIC WATCH:

With “energetic” Mars quinqunx “expansive” Jupiter, today, a rather galvanizing aspect, there’s a chance that we could get a little ahead of our game, now, and overestimate our capabilities, or take on more than we can successfully manage. However, if we also keep in mind the fact that “capacity” is something that is created gradually, over time – and not overnight – hopefully, this realization will help to mitigate the voice within that may be saying to us, now, that we must achieve, at all costs, even if doing so may be dishonoring who we really are at our core. Also, the Moon’s shift into “realistic” Capricorn (11:31am) can aid us in more fully gauging our true limits, or assessing what’s really needed or possible in a given situation.

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are.” Jim Morrison

Question for Today: What “superhuman strength” do you wish you possessed, and why?

In the News: It was announced, today, that US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel will be leaving his post, as soon as his successor is confirmed by the Senate. Various news outlets are also reporting that Hagel was “forced out by President Obama.” Hagel has “transforming” Pluto in “career” Capricorn exactly square to his natal Libra Sun, now, an aspect that is often linked with power struggles or clashes with superiors.

Astrology November 22, 2014: New Moon in “Hopeful” Sagittarius

“One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.” John F. Kennedy (May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963)

"Diana Cazadora" Fountaine In Mexico City 2

COSMIC WATCH:

A New Moon in “hopeful” Sagittarius, the sign of the archer (7:32 am EST), encourages us to go forward in the “direction of our dreams.” Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of optimism and growth. Too, because our individual aspirations are often shaped, in large part, by the personal beliefs that we hold – an area that Sagittarius also governs – now, is an excellent time to reflect upon the deeper constructs or origins of our beliefs, and how they may, or may not be, serving us. Psychologists say that many of us have core beliefs about ourselves that we’re totally unaware of.

It’s interesting, too, that even if we may believe that something is “out of our reach” for us, for whatever reason, simply by going in the direction of it, we immediately begin to give momentum to the matter. Rumi once said, “What you seek is seeking you.” Sort of like, what we aim for also has us in its bull’s-eye. All we need to do is keep the faith, stay the course, and eventually we’ll get together.

Since this lunation is forming a square to “elusive” Neptune, the planet of fantasy and deception, we also want to, ideally, make sure that, “whatever we’re in pursuit of,” now, is something that’s going to positively support us well, in the long-run; that this dream or desire ties in favorably with our core values and the long-term vision that we have for ourselves, and is not just a pipedream. Sometimes, a shadow side of Neptune is that we want to “glamorize” reality, instead of looking at it squarely in the face, and embracing it.

Too, with “thinker” Mercury squaring “grandiose” Jupiter, today, it’s a bit easier for us to get carried away with our thoughts and ideas, as well as to gloss over the details. Basketball Coach John Wooden, once, wisely noted, “It’s the little details (Saturn) that are vital. Little things make big things (Jupiter) happen.” A sentiment that we may want to keep in the forefront, now.

Whatever house that “zero degrees Sagittarius,” falls in our personal birth chart, is also the specific area of life that is being impacted or energized by this New Moon event. That’s also where we’ll want to move outside our comfort zone.

Question for Today: What would be a huge “leap of faith” for you to believe about yourself, and why?

Astrology November 9, 2014: Venus Squares Jupiter

“Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.” Mick Jagger

COSMIC WATCH:

When is “enough,” enough? Or, when might “more,” be better? Those two questions might be timely to ask ourselves, today, as “pleasure-loving” Venus forms a square to “abundant” Jupiter (3:41 pm EST). Classically, in astrology, Venus square Jupiter has been a configuration linked with over-indulgence, or going to excess. It is also an aspect associated with opulence and royalty. Of course, with Venus in “passionate” Scorpio, a placement which, ideally, connects us with our deepest stirrings or longings, and “expansive” Jupiter placed in “theatrical” Leo, perhaps deliberately engaging in a bit of extravagant, lavish, or “over-the-top” behavior, may actually be a fun, harmless, self-expressive diversion, now, for those of us who are so inclined.

The Moon is also in “variety-seeking” Gemini, today, so including a buffet of experiences on our plate, would also likely work out best for us, now.

Some celebs with Venus square Jupiter in their natal charts: Dolly Parton, Julia Child, Alice Cooper, Oral Roberts, Robert Redford, Tina Turner, Betty White.

Question for Today: What do you want more of in your life?

In the News: With decision-maker Mercury nearing the “anaretic” degree (or 29th degree) of Libra (ruling the courts and justice), President Obama nominates Loretta Lynch, a Harvard Law grad, for his Attorney General pick to replace Eric Holder. If confirmed by the Senate, Lynch would be the first black woman to lead the Justice Department.

Famous November 9 Birthdays: Eric Dane, Lou Ferrigno, Hedy Lamarr, Spiro Agnew

“In the United States today, we have more than our share of the nattering nabobs of negativism.” Spiro Agnew

Enjoy your Sunday!

Astrology November 4, 2014: Aries Moon Conjuncts Uranus, Squares Pluto

“Elections belong to the people. It’s their decision. If they decide to turn their back on the fire and burn their behinds, then they will just have to sit on their blisters.” Abraham Lincoln

COSMIC WATCH:

This Election Day finds the Moon in “take charge” Aries, forming an early morning square with “purging” Pluto (9:08 am) and a mid-day conjunction with “rebellious” Uranus (12:29 pm), the planet of change and the unexpected. Also, yesterday’s “transformative” Sun-Pluto sextile, is still in play. All of these aspects seem to be  suggesting that a “revamping” of the political landscape, is in the works. The lunar aspects, today, are also setting into motion the ongoing, longer-term “Uranus-Pluto square,” which will be exact, once more, in early December.

On a personal level, we may be needing to take some kind of action, today, that “frees our spirit.” It would also be good to be involved with a project in which we can place our personal stamp. In general, the Aries Moon tends to make us more fully engaged, in our endeavors, and also more vested in the outcomes. It can also invoke our competitive nature. “You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” Carl Jung

* All times are EST.

Question for Today: What would you like to see happen in the world?

Astrology November 3, 2014: Sun Sextiles Pluto, Moon Enters Aries

“Never judge yourself so harshly that you never arise from the ashes of life.” Shawntel Jefferson

COSMIC WATCH:

The ”illuminating” Sun sextiles “renewing” Pluto, today. An aspect that can help us to “reclaim our power.” Also, this energy is excellent for fixing what’s broken or for taking corrective measures. I’m personally excited about this influence because my car has been under recall for a faulty ignition switch and finally, after months of waiting, I have an appointment with the dealership to get it repaired. Too, when we have a situation that is in need of correction, yet a fix isn’t made in a timely manner, the problematic circumstance or condition can often end up being a slow, subtle drain on our life force, and, sometimes, we may not even be consciously aware of this leakage, until later on, when the matter has been resolved and we then feel a sudden surge in our energy level. Sun-Pluto is also very good for “waking us up” to what’s going on, in the deeper regions of our psyche.

Venus also trines Chiron and quinqunxes Uranus. Our empathy for others’ struggles may increase (Chiron), while, at the same time, we may be craving more freedom or excitement (Uranus) in our relationships or social life.

The Moon also leaves “retiring” Pisces, around midday (1:53 pm EST), and shifts into “pioneering” Aries. Always a time of the month when we’re ready to take action on our desires. “Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.” Mahatma Gandhi

Question for Today: What is one small step that you can take, today, that will create long-term positive consequences?

In the News: New York’s “One World Trade Center” re-opens for business, 13 years after the original towers were destroyed in the September 11 attacks (BBC.com).

Famous November 3 Birthdays: Charles Bronson, Roseanne Barr, Dennis Miller, Elizabeth Smart, Larry Holmes.
