Cosmic Weather:

“Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.” – Hermann Hesse

Instead of scurrying around trying to conquer our miles long, hallowed to-do lists this Monday morning, the waning Last Quarter Moon in dissolving Pisces (6:00 am) suggests we may want to consider holding off a bit; maybe give ourselves a chance to quietly reflect or regroup our energies. Refine our focus. Especially if we are perhaps feeling unsure of our path or overburdened. Too, a lot of times just eliminating one or two elements from our life, things that we maybe no longer have a passion for or that no longer serve us, can sometimes materially help to turn our “lost at sea” Piscean ship around in a positive, or at least semi-salvageable direction. 🙂

This evening, Luna’s flowing trine to lovable, receptive Venus (7:05 pm) and optimistic, big-hearted Jupiter (8:38 pm), in protective Cancer, potentially strengthens bonds and deepens trust, realities that often fall into design by following through on our commitments or keeping our promises.

“In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the commitment you make with love.” – Abraham Lincoln

On This Date in History:

On June 8, 1948, Secker & Warburg publishes George Orwell’s seminal novel “Nineteen Eighty-Four” a dystopian novel set in a totalitarian society led by Big Brother.  The novel explores themes of government surveillance, truth manipulation, and the loss of individuality. (Wikipedia)

Astrologically, among the planetary aspects that day: Philosophical Jupiter retrograde was in brotherly, freedom-loving Aquarius and applying one-degree to an exact quincunx to taskmaster Saturn (which also rules government) in perpetually ordering Virgo – suggesting tension between wanting to expand and align with individualism or new ideas versus wanting to maintain possible top-down control and abide by the permissible status quo.

“Until they become conscious, they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled, they cannot become conscious.” – George Orwell 1984
