BEYOND THE SURFACE STORY

What will your life story or legacy be? 

 

What is yet to be written?

 

Some believe the story is already written and we are here to fulfill it by learning specific lessons. What do you think?

 

The ones we meet and those that join us in our journey are all part of our process.  Our experience and attitude form part of the journey. We experience and learn from each step of our journey.

 

We have choices to make along the way. 

 

It is said that all time exists in the now (the past, the present and the future). The moment is all encompassing, or is it?

 

There are so many questions that we do not have tangible answers to. Is there proof somewhere?

 

Some, due to personal experience, are committed completely to their opinions. the full story goes beyond what appears on the surface. It goes beyond the surface story, and none of truly know all of the facts.

 

Is there a record such as the Akashic records that holds our full story? 

 

Why are we here? 

 

What motivates us? 

 

Do we move forward on a “journey” or is everything instantaneous? 

 

So many questions!

 

I believe we are here for a reason, although we might not all agree on that. 

 

I invite you to share your opinions and experiences!  Let’s have a deep discussion.  No right or wrong!  No bullying; no ignorance, just an ear and open mind.

JUPITER SEXTILE NATAL SATURN

Jupiter, while in transit moving through each sign (which takes about one year), will at some point make a Sextile to your Natal Saturn.  The natal aspects to Saturn in the birth chart will have great importance with this placement.  If Natal Saturn is poorly aspected, this placement of Jupiter will not be as simple a lesson as it would be if Saturn were well aspected natally.

 

Saturn in the birth chart speaks directly of the area of life that is challenged in some way.  Even a well-aspected Natal Saturn still represents an area of concern, and hard work is often indicated.  Some struggles can be anticipated but with certainty and a positive attitude things can work well for you if you apply yourself in whatever direction is required.  Saturn is the teacher/the disciplinarian of the zodiac and suggests that we need to work for our rewards in life.

 

Transiting Jupiter tends to bring easy flow and opportunities when it touches our natal planetary positions and angles.  Natal Jupiter’s position is an area of growth and opportunity.  You must integrate the natal potential with all transiting aspects but particularly when dealing with Saturn and Jupiter together.  Jupiter expands and builds potential, while Saturn restricts and delays the opportunities at hand, creating some structural obstacles that need to be rectified and worked through.  Structures often refer to our attitude and beliefs as well as challenges found within the environment itself.

 

Sextiles are similar to Trines in that they can help with situations, bring opportunities and add to the overall picture in a favorable manner.  The difference is that we must engage ourselves to reap rewards with Sextiles although sometimes things may just fall into our lap. This may happen if Saturn were well aspected in the Natal chart or if there were other indicators within the aspects through transiting planets moving through the natal chart.  It is always suggested, however, with a Sextile that we participate in the process to achieve the best possible results.

 

With Jupiter sextile natal Saturn, Jupiter might offer a change if it is required at the time, but Saturn will resist and put obstacles in the way so that it is not an easy route to follow.  With Jupiter, however, we have the opportunity to rise above Saturn’s restrictions and formulate a plan that moves us forward in our evolutionary journey. 

 

The houses involved in your chart will tell the story of the areas of life involved and the other aspects taking hold at the same time will either assist or hinder the situation.  If the sextile between Jupiter and Saturn is the only aspect in place, the energies may not be that recognizable or may not cause much disruption.

 

Remember, Astrology always provides information on the overall picture of what is unfolding in your life at the moment.

 

In summary, Jupiter sextile natal Saturn offers an opportunity to overcome barriers or learn life lessons created by Saturn more easily if you put forth a little effort or do a little planning. Don’t waste the opportunity when this aspect unfolds in your chart.

ALWAYS MOVING FORWARD

Two steps forward and one step back.  It feels that way sometimes, but in reality, we are always moving forward.

 

The biggest issue with advancement is we judge our progress and our perceptions are not always accurate. At times, it certainly feels as though we are advancing, but at other times, we feel stagnated or held back with little to no progress.  At least this is our perception.

 

Every step of the way on our journey is a learning process.  Sometimes the lessons are challenging, sometimes less challenging. Nonetheless, the lessons are always valuable.

 

Perhaps we need a little adjustment or tweak to our thinking process? 

 

Our perception and attitude towards life greatly affects the journey.

 

We can get caught up in setting goals for large achievements and not receiving recognition from others. We can feel as though we have failed by not reaching the pinnacle of our goals. We ignore the progress that was actually made.

 

One step at a time should be our timetable.  Focus on learning from the experience. Utilize the information gathered from these lessons. There is no such thing as failure. We are capable of switching that perception at any time. 

 

You are always moving forward. Change your attitude from disappointment to gratitude for all that has been learned and for all that is. Give yourself a pat on the back!

TRANSITS TO SUN IN VIRGO 2025

We posted an article on August 20 about the general attributes of Sun in Virgo. Read here: https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-virgo-2025  

Today we will review some of the transits that will influence those with their Sun in Virgo over the coming year.

 

Transiting Mercury is in the sign of Virgo from September 2-19, 2025 while transiting Venus is in Virgo from September 19 through to October 13, 2025.  They will not make a conjunction with one another, but as they move through Virgo, they will make connections to all those with their Sun in the sign of Virgo. 

 

Transiting Pluto is in the early degrees of Aquarius and will stay in this sign for many years to come. Pluto will make aspect to some Sun in Virgo by Quincunx. Check your chart for the appropriate degree (150°) to see if your chart is influenced. The orb of approaching Pluto to those influenced is 4-5° while the separating influence is about 2°.

 

The Conjunction of Mercury affects the areas of communication, interaction, your thought process and can indicate short trips.  Mercury is often tied to teaching/learning, all education and is intense when it comes to communication of all sorts.  Mercury rules both Virgo and Gemini.

 

When Mercury connects with the Virgoan’s Sun, for about 7 days, you will perhaps ingulf yourself in deep thought, and communicate with yourself ideas that may further your goals in life.  Perhaps you are preparing for schooling or may educate yourself and learn the use of specific tools that may help you professionally.  The Mercury contact is a good time for educating yourself, open communication with others and evaluating what you might want to do as you move forward in your quest for understanding and knowledge.

 

When Venus interacts with your Virgoan Sun, (which also lasts approximately 7 days) you might want to include what you were planning with your friends and associates.  Perhaps the planning process is now in the organization stage.  Socializing is often a part of the process, and you may find yourself more involved with others, perhaps entertaining them or going to gatherings. 

 

For some, this can be a time of love and affection.  Perhaps you meet someone under this influence and decide to allow the relationship to develop and you share affection.  Perhaps the next step is in order.  Much will depend on the houses involved in your chart for both Mercury as well as Venus while in aspect.  These will be the areas of life being influenced by the energies.

 

When Pluto enters the scene, it will be a long-lasting aspect that will play an important role in your life lasting several years and usually not fully understood for about 2 years.  Pluto is about transformation and regeneration.  It can indicate power problems or struggles associated with your goals in life, or a need to make changes to the path you are on.  There are no half measures when Pluto is involved and, in many cases, what was in place will go through dynamic changes and something new comes into play as you may have to leave something behind.

 

A quincunx always indicates that an adjustment is necessary.  Because of the changes that Pluto often brings, you will have to adjust to where life is taking you and fighting the process is futile as where you are going is exactly where you are meant to go in this place in time.  Pluto is dynamic in its energies and sometimes the change taking place is hard to adjust to, but over time, you will adjust and reap the rewards of life’s new avenues of expression.

 

Happy solar return to our Sun in Virgo followers. The transits to Sun in Virgo, 2025, suggest self-study, learning, communication, relationships and a transition of sorts. Embrace the energies available.

Self-Understanding and Personal Growth are at your fingertips by Unlocking the Tool of Astrology with Our 2025 Fall Astrology Beginner's Course

Astrology provides rich insights into our personalities, relationships, and life journeys. Your Astrology chart is more than just a collection of symbols; it’s a powerful tool for self-awareness and personal growth. In our upcoming 2025 Fall Astrology Beginner’s Course, you will gain the skills needed to read your chart with clarity and confidence.

In this post, we will discuss the significance of your astrology chart in personal development, the benefits of our small class structure, and how this course can serve as a solid starting point for both newcomers and those wishing to refresh their knowledge.

 The Importance of Your Astrology Chart

Your astrology chart, or natal chart, is a snapshot of the sky at your birth. It shows the positions of the planets and much more. This unique snapshot provides insights into your character, strengths, and challenges. For example, if you have Aries prominent in your chart, (not just your Sun Sign) you may be driven, love to learn new things, and unafraid to take chances.

 Understanding your chart can lead to deeper self-awareness. A study by the American Psychological Association found that self-awareness can boost confidence and decision-making abilities by up to 50%. When you learn to interpret your chart, you can clarify your motivations and potential life paths. This understanding is crucial for making informed choices and fostering personal growth.

 Why Choose Our Small Class Setting?

One of the standout features of our 2025 Fall Astrology Beginner’s Course is the intimate class size. With small groups, you receive personalized attention from our experienced instructor. This setting encourages a supportive environment where you can ask questions, engage in discussions, and explore material.

 Our structure allows for meaningful interactions and deeper connections with fellow Astrology lovers. You will have the chance to share your experiences, making your educational journey even more enriching.

 Building a Strong Foundation in Astrology

Whether you are entirely new to Astrology or simply looking to refresh your skills, our beginner course lays a solid foundation. We will cover essential chart elements such as the significance of the sun, moon, and rising signs, alongside the twelve houses and planetary aspects, plus so much more.

Having a strong foundation is crucial in Astrology. For instance, understanding the role of your sun sign can help you identify key inner personality traits. If you're an Pisces, you may be naturally compassionate and sensitive. Pisceans need purpose. By mastering these basics, you gain confidence to delve into more complex concepts in the future.

Learn with Confidence

We know astrology can feel overwhelming, and our goal is to make it accessible and give you confidence. Through engaging lessons, practical exercises, and interactive discussions, you will learn how to read and interpret your astrology chart effectively.

We prioritize making learning enjoyable. Our instructor takes you through the material in relatable ways, ensuring you feel empowered to apply your newfound knowledge.

A Review Tool for Astrology Enthusiasts

If you've studied Astrology before, our beginner course can serve as an excellent review tool. Revisiting foundational concepts can enhance your understanding and improve your ability to interpret your chart. It’s easy to overlook key details while jumping into advanced topics, but our course helps you reconnect with the core principles.

By reinforcing your knowledge, you’ll be better prepared to navigate your chart’s complexities and apply your insights to your personal growth journey. Statistics show that students who review foundational concepts are 60% more likely to retain advanced knowledge.

Embrace Your Journey of Self-Understanding

Astrology is a powerful tool that can lead to significant self-understanding and personal growth. Enrolling in our 2025 Fall Astrology Beginner's Course allows you to gain the skills needed to decode your astrology chart and uncover its potential as a life tool.

In a supportive small class environment, you will learn from an instructor dedicated to your personal learning journey. Whether you are starting afresh or seeking a refresher, this course offers a robust foundation for your exploration.

VIRGO NEW MOON 2025 Part II

Yesterday we posted an article on the Virgo New Moon that we will experience on August 23, 2025. We touched on Uranus influence suggests a change in direction which is essential for growth and that Pluto suggests endings and new beginning and Saturn & Neptune may blur the decision making. See our post at https://www.holmastrology.com/post/virgo-new-moon-2025

 

Addressing some of these transits we delve deeper into the potential surrounding this important period in our evolving life’s story. 

 

As mentioned, Uranus is square the New Moon. The Square aspect often forces us into action because the energy is too challenging, and we know we must adjust or fix things to move forward.  This is the beauty of the Square. Its energies are so difficult, they push us to act for a resolution. 

 

When Uranus is involved, this can be very disruptive and often comes without warning, and you can act on impulse. It is therefore essential that you make sure you have firmly thought about how you should proceed.  If you do nothing, quite often Uranus will push change and force action in a much more aggressive manner. 

 

The overall consequence can be quite disruptive. It may take time to understand why the changes were needed but know that change or transformation is required.  We will learn to adjust as Quincunx’s energy (from Pluto) push us to find resolution.

 

To take it a little further, if for example, you have many mutable placements in your chart, you may find it a little easier to adjust, while those with prominent fixed emphases or Cardinal emphases strong in the natal chart would have a harder time adjusting. 

 

Fixed emphases don’t want change and will stand strong to hold things the way they have been even when they understand that a change is required.  Cardinal will adjust by making changes that they deem important. Strong Cardinal individuals adapt easier than those with a fixed emphasis.  Cardinal energies are the ones that push for change when change is needed although not without some struggles along the way.

 

The rest of the chart with all the transits and progressions will play a huge influence in what else may be involved, and we should always look at the natal potential when we are deciphering moves that may affect us in profound ways.

 

Our natal chart always tells the story and when it becomes activated through transit or progression what is foretold in our birth chart now has potential to grow.  The actual aspects are important, but we also must realize that regardless of what aspects are involved, we can find resolution and learn valuable lessons to carry forward on our journey.

 

The restructuring called for by this Virgo New Moon and the aspects to its placement as set out in our Virgo New Moon 2025 Part II article may be challenging but change is essential. Either make the changes called for or they will be forced upon you if there is contact being made in your Astrology chart. This transformation is for your overall benefit.

VIRGO NEW MOON 2025

The New Moon cycle suggested the beginning of a new cycle.  It brings with it the opportunity to set new goals and bring something new into fruition. You are planting seeds with growth in mind often coming to harvest when the Full Moon in the same sign some six months later. 

 

Under the new moon, look deep within and release any old patterns that no longer serve a viable purpose. You have outgrown them.

 

On August 23, 2025, we will be experiencing a New Moon in the sign of Virgo at 0°.  Virgo’s energies evolve around organizing, structuring life and finding a resolution to whatever needs change. In making these changes, all should work more precisely, and your understanding should be more clear.

 

The Sun and the Moon are in Conjunction with one another with a New Moon, and the house that they fall in is the area of life that requires reconstruction and a new start.

 

Transiting Uranus, transiting Saturn, transiting Neptune and transiting Pluto all make contact within one degree of this placement to the New Moon in Virgo. 

 

Uranus makes a Square to the New Moon while Neptune and Saturn (which are in Conjunction with one another) make a Quincunx and Pluto makes a Quincunx as well with the New Moon.  Looking at just these combinations, it is suggestive of a challenging time where you will likely have hurtles to contend with and must make concessions because you will have to learn to adjust to what unfolds.

 

Uranus suggests a change of direction. It is imperative that you look where you might want to be down the road and act accordingly now.  Uranus often forces you into action because change is required. Either current habits or choices have caused you to stagnate or they are now taking you away from your destiny and your intended path forward.  This can be challenging because you are comfortable with things even if they are not comforting.  You may have been wishing that things would change but a part of you realizes that they likely would not.  Under this aspect, the door now opens for you to make a move even though you may be worried about the results. Remember, however, Uranus takes us where we need to go.

 

Pluto reiterates this energy as well. Pluto often suggests that a total change is required because something has died (come to an end) and no longer serves a purpose.  Some power struggles are likely, but the Quincunx aspect always suggests that we must adapt to what is unfolding.  In some cases, Pluto’s action is out of our control, so we either go with the flow or fight the current of change. More often than not, the fight against Pluto’s energies only creates stress and the change is inevitable.

 

Saturn and Neptune together can be subdued and confusing.  You may ask yourself which way should I go or what will happen if I take this route.  You may worry if your concerns are real, over-analyzed or even illusionary.  Together “right and wrong” and “comfort and venture into the new” come into play with what is unfolding, but these have likely been in play for some time.  Once again it calls for adjustments and perhaps reconciliation. 

 

The Virgo New Moon 2025 ushers in restructuring and reorganizing. Uranus suggests a change in direction that is essential for growth. Pluto suggests endings and new beginning and Saturn & Neptune may blur the decision making.

 

We will continue our look at transits affecting the Virgo New Moon tomorrow as there is far too much to cover in one article.

NEVER STOP TRYING

Because of fatigue and frustration, we may feel like giving in to the pressures of life and stop fighting for our rights or stop fighting for what we know to be the right way. It may feel as though you have been struggling for so long and have not made progress, so why go on?

 

Questions that seems to surface during these struggles focus on “how much longer will this last”, “am I strong enough” and “is this worth it”. 

 

We might have been walking this path far too long and running out of patience and running out of ideas. We are just about ready to give in or let go.  This is what is referred to as reaching the bottom. In many cases, once we reach the proverbial bottom, we are then provided with a turning point, or a solution is finally contemplated.  We may have finally let go and realized that it is out of our hands and there really is nothing we can do about the situation and miraculously a solution is at hand.

 

Nothing lasts forever. A turning point always presents itself in due course. We must endure and learn the lessons at hand as there is really no other way to proceed.  It is out of our hands and now although we have tried in many ways to correct the situation, nothing has changed.  This is where the most important lessons in life are offered.  We do not stop falling until the bottom is reached.

 

Life often seems to dictate, and we have no other choice but to go with the flow and stop fighting the process.  Once we surrender quite often an answer appears seemingly out of nowhere

 

Never stop trying, but surrender to the lesson and be open. Learn the lessons to become stronger and wiser. Let go and allow when you need to and know that life will move in the direction that it is supposed to.
