“Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around.” Henry David Thoreau

COSMIC WATCH:

“Assertive” Mars sextiles “philosophical” Jupiter today (6:26 am EDT). This galvanizing aspect often helps to firm up our beliefs or convictions. It can also predispose us to want to take a stand or act courageously on matters that are dear to our heart. With the right platform or outlet, it’s entirely possible that we may be able to wield greater influence or sway over others now, who may be very inspired by our high level of enthusiasm for our cause.

Since we also have Mars squaring “intense” Pluto (11:47 pm EDT), it is likely that we are also willing to work very hard to achieve our goals now. This aspect is often linked with almost a Herculean effort to get ahead, which can be very admirable. We do, however, want to make sure that, in our bid for success or dominance, that we also stay mindful of, and take into consideration, other people’s needs and desires, as on the shadow side, Mars-Pluto can coincide with bitter power struggles and manipulation.

Too, on another level, Mars-Pluto aspects can sometimes indicate a desire to let go of something that we may have at one time been very impassioned about. This “giving up” may occur alongside the realization that this thing is no longer serving a useful purpose for us and it is time to release it and move on. Also, another possible scenario here: we may find that we need to suddenly give our attention to situations or matters that could be described as in a “state of decay.”  “You will find that it is necessary to let things go; simply for the reason that they are heavy. So let them go, let go of them. I tie no weights to my ankles.” C. Joybell C.

Today’s Affirmation: “What I need, I attract. What I no longer require, I lovingly surrender.”

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Astrology June 27, 2011: Mars Sextiles Radical Uranus

COSMIC WATCH:

“Things do not change; we change.” Henry David Thoreau

The Moon is housed in practical, down-to-earth Taurus all day. We crave more tangible evidence of our success, as confirmation that we are going in the right direction with our lives. Perhaps a good, overall question to pose to ourselves today: “Is the payback that we are getting for our varied efforts, worth it?” If not, we may want to scale back or eliminate those things that are draining our energy and giving us very little reward.

The Taurus Moon is also in a waning phase, ahead of the New Moon Eclipse on July 1. Meaning it’s a good time for releasing what is no longer practically serving us. Too, we have the Sun in security-conscious Cancer coming up on an opposition to purging Pluto, which is exact tomorrow.

Energizing Mars in idea-rich Gemini also sextiles radical Uranus in pioneering Aries.  If we perhaps engage in a bit of brainstorming, we may be able to craft innovative solutions to old problems or challenges today. Uranus, the planet of change, that also governs technology, is linked with genius and brilliant flashes of intuition. It also tends to encourage from us more unorthodox approaches to things, which could clash a bit with today’s more conservative, time-tested, Taurus Moon.

Enjoy your Monday!

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius June 15, 2011 Astrology

COSMIC WATCH:

“Life is the hyphen between matter and spirit.” Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, from “Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers” (1827)

There’s a Full Moon/Total Lunar Eclipse in “visionary” Sagittarius today (4:14 pm EDT), the sign of the hopeful archer. Sagittarius governs our beliefs and personal philosophy of life and also rules long-distance travel, the law, clergy, and higher education. This eclipse is occurring at 24 degrees of Sagittarius, smack near the Galactic Center. A Full Moon Eclipse is a time of potent release when we empty out our stale contents. It is also a time for wondrous reflection and illumination.

Eclipses often speed up events and can usher in fateful changes that permanently alter the landscape around us. Their influence is said to last up to six months. Whatever house this eclipse is falling in today, in our charts, is where we are presently engaged in a search for more meaning and where we may be needing to tweak, dismantle, or defend some of our beliefs.

“With bow and arrow carefully in tow, we aim to hunt for the higher meaning that we know is purposefully nestled within.

Our gaze is ardently fixed upon the starry firmament above, meticulously scanning for any directional clues that we pray will point the way to our very own, internal cluster of brightly lit constellations, that we sense are all merrily a twinkle now, as they expectantly and eagerly await our joyous arrival on this magical eclipse day.

Yes, we’re going home again. The mother-father, Galactic Center has kindly put down the welcome mat and thoughtfully turned on its brightest lights for us to clearly see our way back to the truth. The whole truth. Nothing but the truth. So help us God. We may even stop and rest a spell in Luckenbach, Texas, with Willie Nelson, to put 74 candles on the late Waylon Jennings’ birthday cake.” 🙂

Happy Eclipse Day!

Full Moon in Cancer January 19, 2011

“The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom on which you will always find forgiveness.” Honore de Balzac

Full Moons offer us a chance for full awareness, or full illumination. We tend to see things “more clearly” with Full Moons. The Full Moon that we have on January 19th occurs at 29 degrees of Cancer (4:22 pm EST), which is the very last degree of the sign. Moon-ruled Cancer is the sign of motherly love. Home and family. It governs nurturing and self-protection. The Cancer experience provides us with a heightened sense of our own continuation, an awareness of our roots.

With this Full Moon occurring at the very end of sensitive Cancer, there symbolically seems to be more of an urgency to it. When planets are at the last degrees, we are wrapping things up. Too, this Full Moon forms a harmonious trine to both “opportunity” Jupiter, at 29 degrees of surrendering Pisces, and to “awakening” Uranus at 27 degrees of Pisces. This suggests the possibility of an emotional breakthrough.

Individually, we will want to look at our personal horoscopes to see what house in our chart this Full Moon is falling in, as to where this breakthrough or full awareness may be occurring. It is likely that we will also see an uptick in general activity or movement in those affairs designated by the house containing the Full Moon.

Full Moons are a time of release. This Full Moon in “clinging to the familiar” Cancer may be an ideal time for us to symbolically release old hurts and wounds from our past, especially from our familial past. By emptying ourselves of this emotionally depleting arsenal, we make it possible for our more tender, nurturing impulses to again reign.

“Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.” Robert H. Schuller.

Astrology April 27, 2010: Saturn-Uranus Opposition, Letting Go

“When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.” – Lao Tzu

Cosmic Watch:

Sometimes it is hard to know what to let go of and what to hold on to.

That is what we are facing now as Saturn in Virgo exactly opposes Uranus in Pisces. Saturn represents the Old Guard.  Uranus represents the New Order.

Oppositions signify turning points in consciousness.

Letting go of people, situations, desires, can be painful.  However, holding onto aspects of our lives that are clearly outworn or not really in our best interests/core values, can serves as a roadblock to our moving ahead.

Now is a good time for us to make peace with the past. Being thankful for the full range of experiences that we have had is perhaps a good starting point. Too, choosing to trust that what lies ahead will be exactly what we need for where we are in our journey can also be helpful.
