Today’s Astrology April 13, 2019: Sun Squares Pluto

Cosmic Weather:

“We live in a culture of secrecy, where hiding and lying are accepted as natural, even though we don’t like it. We want honesty, transparency, and authenticity in our loved ones, our groups and organizations, and in our own self so we can reach the heights of our capacity. By clinging to the opaque reality we stall our evolution.” Penney Peirce

We are poised for positive, transformative new beginnings today but the portal to get there requires that we first must do some serious digging/heavy lifting through the valley of our fears, worries, insecurities to see how they have been covertly or secretly impacting/blocking/shaping our utilization of power in the world (Sun square Pluto). Pluto is associated with purging or eliminating whatever is decaying or putrefying inside of us so that we can lighten our load, and move on.

Additionally, on the shadow side, with the Sun in conquest-oriented Aries, there can be a tendency now for power struggles to ensue, or more of a willingness to engage in manipulative behaviors, in a bid to hold onto what is feared may be passing away (Pluto).

“You can change your world by changing your words…Remember, death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Joel Osteen

Astrology for January 11, 2019: Sun Conjunct Pluto

“Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters. Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome. Terrify and terrific. Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation.” Alan Cohen

The empowering Sun is conjunct perceptive Pluto in Capricorn today (6:36 am). Pluto is the modern-day ruler of Scorpio, the sign of life, death, and rebirth. This intense astrological aspect may help us to see more clearly the truth of a situation that maybe has been bothering or perplexing us for a while. Archetypally, Pluto symbolizes the underworld and the unconscious. It often reveals secret information coming from the depths. It can make us especially aware of what is toxic or festering below the surface that is in need of immediate release or resolution. Pluto is associated with psychotherapy, surgery, X-rays, elimination, and purging. In the body, Pluto rules the bowels and the rectum. Additionally, this is an excellent time for any kind of research, excavation, investigation or detective work. Sun-Pluto energy is equated with the ability for intense, single-minded focus and concentration, even to the point of obsession!

Ideally, Sun-Pluto alignments can ultimately be very healing and transforming as we learn to free ourselves from the vestiges of the past, which have had a limiting stranglehold on us, and get on with the life-supporting pursuit of aligning with new growth activities and self-expression. Sun-Pluto can serve as a powerful conduit to allow us to step into our own power or authority, and reshape our lives in such a way that they more fully radiate our authenticity.

On the shadow side, Sun-Pluto aspects can often trigger power struggles, bullying, sinister actions, manipulation, sudden breakdowns. The truth may also be used ruthlessly or selfishly as a way of gaining power or dominance over another.

Last night, on the eve of today’s Sun-Pluto conjunction, a very dramatic and moving development: Jayme Closs, a 13-year-old girl who vanished three months ago after her parents were found dead in their northwestern Wisconsin home, was found alive. A suspect was reportedly arrested a short time later. (CNN). Astrologically, one cannot help but think of the powerful Scorpionic rebirth aspect, at play here, of the phoenix rising from the ashes.

Earlier in the week, on Wednesday, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife MacKenzie Bezos announced on Twitter that they are getting divorced after 25 years of marriage. Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world, whose birthday is tomorrow, January 12th – he’ll be 55 – presently has transiting Pluto now forming an exact conjunction with his Capricorn Sun, a long-term aspect that will stick around for a couple years. This influence operates essentially the same as today’s short-term Sun-Pluto conjunction. Since Jeff Bezos is such a public figure, we will be able to see, firsthand, how his Pluto-Sun is playing out, at least to the extent it is ever possible to know anybody from the outside in. It will also be interesting to see how this marital split might impact Amazon as a business. MacKenzie Bezos will soon be the wealthiest woman in the world as the Bezos’ live in a community property state. All the money he earned during the marriage, especially since there was reportedly no prenuptial agreement, is half his wife’s. They got married in 1993. He started Amazon a year or two later. Pluto also governs joint finances or resources that we share with others.

Hope you have a magnificent day and are able to clearly see now how all those mysterious puzzle pieces are supposed to fit together for you! Thank you also for reading my blog today. I’ve been away from here for almost a year and a half and am still trying to find my sea legs after having not written a thing during that long hiatus. Coincidentally, WordPress also happened to note for me today that this is the 1000th astrology blog that I have written since 2009. Seems like I should be getting some kind of plaque or award or something, doesn’t it? Maybe an office with a view? 🙂

Astrology December 24, 2011: New Moon In Worldly Capricorn

23 Friday Dec 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

New Moons usher in new beginnings. The New Moon in “practical, worldly” Capricorn, on December 24th (1:06 pm EST), is a perfect conduit for any of our long-term planning and goal-setting. Ideally, Capricorn energy infuses us with extra capacity to function in a structured environment in a more disciplined manner. A flowing trine to the lunation from “optimistic” Jupiter also helps to put us in a more “can-do” spirit while mapping out our direction for the year ahead. Abundant Jupiter is also stationing direct in prosperity-minded Taurus, on Christmas Day, gloriously giving us the “cosmic green light” to move forward with our exciting itinerary and plans.

This last New Moon of the year also forms a square to “innovative” Uranus suggesting that we have a chance to break free now from ruts or bottlenecks, especially if we are willing to incorporate, or at least consider, new methods or alternatives. A potent conjunction to “insightful” Pluto also helps us to get really clear on our intentions. It may also serve to strengthen our passions and desires in a transformative way.

We will also want to make a conscious intention of working cooperatively with others now versus getting embroiled in any power struggles. Sometimes, on the shadow side with Moon-Pluto, we can get a little too full of ourselves and that can incline us to want to exert extra influence in the world. Sometimes we also do this in a manner that disregards, or does not take into consideration, other people’s needs and desires. Too, Capricorn is a very authoritative sign to begin with.

“No one can whistle a symphony.  It takes a whole orchestra to play it.” H.E. Luccock

Famous People with Moon in Capricorn: Annie Lennox, Cher, Brad Pitt, George Clooney (still love you, George!)

New Moon in Capricorn Affirmation: “Life loves me and always rewards me generously for all of my noble efforts.”

In The News: It’s being dubbed “the kiss heard around the world.” Earlier this week, two female U.S. sailors won the honor of the traditional “first kiss” on the pier (in Virginia Beach, Virginia), upon returning home after being away at sea for 80 days. The pair reportedly nabbed the privilege after partaking in, and winning, a raffle drawing in which sailors bought $1 tickets to raise money for military members’ children. Navy officials said it was the first time that a same-sex couple celebrated the “first kiss.” This “first” was also made possible with the recent repeal of the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy.

What makes this incident very fascinating, from an astrological perspective, is that Venus, the planet that also governs women and romance, had just entered “unconventional” Aquarius and was making an exact, harmonious sextile to Uranus in Aries, the planet that governs equality issues and matters involving individual rights. Aries is also the sign that happens to rule the military.

Happy New Moon blessings! Also, may you and your loved ones enjoy peace, love and joy this holiday season and all year ‘round. Looking forward to being with you here in the new year.

Namaste,

Patrice Thompson

Mercury, Mars, Pluto conjunct in Capricorn December 13, 2010

“Coming to terms with the fear of death is conducive to healing, positive personality transformation, and consciousness evolution.” Stanislav Grof

With retrograde Mercury (mind) conjunct energizing Mars and regenerating Pluto in achievement Capricorn, we are likely feeling the need to stretch or extend ourselves today.

It may be crucial for us to seek out personally transforming activities (Pluto) now, that help us to grow beyond our normal boundaries, or that help us to redefine ourselves (Pluto). There may also be a real need or desire to pioneer and blaze new trails (Mars). This may especially be the case on the career or professional front (Capricorn).

Our thoughts and ideas (Mercury) also have more of an intensity and focus to them now. We are more capable of strategic thinking and planning, and our capacity for understanding is also deeper (Pluto). We are, correspondingly, better able to figure out riddles, and solve problems and mysteries.

It could be, too, that we learn about new information that has major impact for our lives, or hear about things that have previously been hidden (Pluto). Pluto governs spying, espionage, and leaks. Pluto also represents what is buried or hidden inside of us at the deepest levels, the reservoir of previous experiences that we have submerged. What we have suppressed, or pushed down inside of us, may be rising to the surface now, as Pluto rules the process of elimination and with Mars, this elimination process is activated. We purge ourselves of what we no longer need, so that we have room for new growth and evolution. Pluto governs the principles of death and re-birth. Too, as part of this purging experience, we may feel more of a need to talk about or verbalize (Mercury) what has been buried inside ourselves (Pluto). It is an excellent time, for instance, for psychotherapy.

On the shadow side of this highly volatile line-up of energy, and this line-up is very high-wattage, we can easily overreact and overdo, and physically and mentally exhaust ourselves in the process. Mars rules the physical energy in the body, and in alignment with intense Pluto, we tend to extend ourselves to the extreme. We become too stretched.

It is also easier for us now to become embroiled in heated arguments and quick-tempered disputes (Mercury-Mars), particularly bitter, manipulative power struggles (Mars-Pluto). Often with Mars-Pluto we act obsessively in ways that we don’t quite understand, as we are expressing needs and desires that are deep-seated in origin, that have been buried inside, and these things are consciously, for the most part, often unrecognized or misunderstood by us. If we see that more of the negative manifestation of this energy is playing out around us today, especially if we feel like lashing out for no good reason, we may need to find a way to disengage ourselves, while simultaneously searching for more inclusive strategies for compromise, or cooperation with others. This triple conjunction energy can be very healing today, but only if we choose to tap into it in enlightened, non self-serving ways. That is the key.

“Stretching his hand up to reach the stars, too often man forgets the flowers at his feet.” Jeremy Bentham

Cosmic Word Of The Day: Stretch

(Mercury, Mars, Pluto triple conjunction)

Stretch: 1) to draw tight or taut 2) to lengthen, widen, distend, or enlarge by tension

“With retrograde Mercury (mind) conjunct energizing Mars and regenerating Pluto in achievement Capricorn, we are likely feeling the need to stretch or extend ourselves today.

Meanwhile, the Moon’s continuing passage through emotional, retreating Pisces also heightens our sensitivity to the drama going on around us now and, at times, may put us at odds with our own desires to forge boldly ahead. The Moon’s conjunction with rebel Uranus (7:36 pm EST) also can magnify any personal feelings of inner tension or turmoil.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope August 19, 2010: Bill Clinton is 64

“When our memories outweigh our dreams, we have grown old.” Bill Clinton


Moon leaves “Philosophical” Sagittarius for “Career” Capricorn (10:18 am EDT) where it energizes the Cardinal T-Cross. This may prompt the need for immediate action involving power and or relationship issues. Matters of spies and or covert operations could also figure into the picture with the Moon’s conjunction to “Grand Master Spy” Pluto (4:02 pm EDT).

Meanwhile, the “Party-loving” Leo Sun cozies up to “Benevolent” Jupiter in “Thrill-seeking” Aries in a minor creative aspect.  And, “Love Goddess” Venus rapidly approaches a blissful conjunction with “Sex Pistol” Mars in “Mating” Libra.

“The heavens are heating up again with the volatile Cardinal T-Cross activity, which means we could see, among other things, governments toppled, spies busted, and secretive, covert matters brought into the light of day. None of this really concerns us that much, though. What we’re really wanting to know now is, how the heck is it, that former President Bill Clinton, manages to have the Universe set into motion the sexiest aspect of all time for his 64th birthday, via the Venus-Mars conjunction in Libra?

What makes this whole matter even more incredible and amazing is that Bill was also born when this very same, sexy, highly desirable configuration was in the sky. Which also means that today Bill is even ‘doubly-sexy!’ How could that even be possible?

We love you, Bill Clinton.  Happy Birthday!”

“A monarchy conducted with infinite wisdom and infinite benevolence is the most perfect of all possible governments.” Ezra Stiles

“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Monarchy

Definition: 1) a state or nation in which the supreme power is actually or nominally lodged in a monarch 2) supreme power or sovereignty held by a single person

Origin: 1300-50; ME monarchie < LL monarchia

COSMIC WEATHER:

Day two of the Elevated Capricorn Moon. Moon trine Prim and Proper Venus in Virgo. Regal Leo Sun applying to a trine to Pompous Jupiter in Just-Doing-It Aries. Jupiter dukin’ it out with Mob Kingpin Pluto in Power-Grabbin’ Capricorn. Still a churnin’ and a burnin’ we are, from the ever-raging, flamin’, in-your-face, Cardinal T-Square. So it goes and goes and goes. La-de-da. De-da-la. La-la-la.

A Matter of Crowning Achievement

We are driven and obsessed

We want unchecked power, reclaimed power, rigid control, and an expanding kingdom

A cushy, high-profile seat on the exalted throne

A flashy crown on our slippery balding heads

To-die-for jewelry on our quickly decaying bodies

A never-ending supply of cake-eating subjects

Willingly genuflecting at our feet

And fanning us whenever we want

Wherever we want

In whichever direction we want

We want and expect all this privileged treatment

And it’s not even noon yet.

Pity those poor souls who have to suffer us today.

With so much going on

And the monstrous monarchy to maintain

It’s getting nearly impossible to even have a spare minute

To cogitate on

And dwell upon

Sufficiently

Our Almighty Savior

And Chronically Missing

Knight in Shining Armour

George Clooney.

Another hot Saturday Night

Of wasted opportunity, George

In the fiery, Cardinal T-Square inferno.

“The more corrupt the state, the more laws.” Publius Cornelius Tacitus

In the News: Appears New York House Representative, Charlie Rangel, fourth in the House in terms of seniority, got caught up in the “Jupiter square Pluto” crossfire this week. Charlie was charged with multiple ethics violations on Thursday.  Jupiter rules politicians and Pluto in governmental Capricorn often “steam cleans them” on the carpet, so to speak, when these two forces are aligned in the sky. Not to say that Charlie is guilty here, that’s for his peers to decide.  But, do anything wrong, especially to manipulate things in your favor, Master Spy Detective Pluto’s going to eventually find out and nail you to the cross.

Famous July 24th Cancerian Birthdays: Jennifer Lopez (41), Lynda Carter (59)

Enjoy your Saturday!

Make sure you get properly fitted for that crown before you put it on your big head.

“Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it.  That factor is attitude.” William James, Philosopher and Psychologist.

We have Sun square Pluto today, a more challenging aspect, and one in which we often feel pressured, both internally and externally. Usually when Pluto is prominent, power and control issues surface (Pluto’s domain).  We may have difficulties with authority figures or employers (Sun rules higher-ups). It would be unwise to deliberately provoke incidents with people in power today as chances are we will not win and we would likely only be making things worse for ourselves (the square aspect denotes conflict).

What is always a good idea to do on Sun-Pluto days is to keep a gauge on our emotional reactions and see what triggers them.  That way, we can gain insight into our inner workings (which are Pluto-ruled) and find out what may be subconsciously bothering us. Pluto energy is always ideal for uncovering hidden information about ourselves or others.  Also, if we personally need to keep something private from others, we need to be careful that we don’t inadvertently divulge details about it today.

The Moon enters theatrical Leo at 5:39 am EDT creating within us more of a need for pageantry, grand gestures. With Leo, we emotionally crave attention and praise.

“Censure is often useful, praise is often deceitful.” Winston Churchill, Former British Prime Minister

Famous Aries persons born on this day: American Celebrity Danica Patrick, U.S. Figure Skater Debi Thomas, Actress Sarah Jessica Parker, Singer/Songwriter Elton John

In the News:  It was announced Wednesday the US and Russia will sign a new arms control treaty next month.  The treaty is a follow-up to the Stategic Arms Reduction Treaty which was first signed in 1991 and expired in December of 2009.

The treaty announcement coincides exactly with the current Mars-Saturn sextile.  Mars rules the “aggressive urge” and is the planet that governs war. ( Mars also rules the military and defense operations.) Saturn, meanwhile, represents the government and rules the “safety urge.”  The general nature of Saturn is restrictive and limiting, so having it positively aligned (sextile) with Mars, the warrior planet, it is fitting that we should have a nuclear arms control treaty principally agreed to (more work still needs to be done ), which is essentially an agreement to restrict or control aggression (Mars).  Saturn is also in Libra which is the sign that rules diplomatic efforts.  While Mars is in Leo, and Leo represents world leaders.  (Additionally, the current Sun square Pluto energy was also a factor in this announcement.  Pluto rules “nuclear weapons” and the square aspect “forces action.” While the Sun-Pluto energy is exact today,  it was already applying yesterday.)

Peace and love, everyone.  Enjoy your day!
