SATURN IN OPPOSITION TO NATAL SATURN

The opposition of transiting Saturn to its natal position occurs around the age 74.  At the same time, we are also amid our Nodal Return.  This can be an important time in life for finding one’s path and learning from important life lessons up to this point in life.

 

Transiting Saturn Opposition Natal Saturn is a time of reassessment and reflection of our life’s path, and we are pushed to take responsibility for much of how our lives have developed thus far.  This can be a time of building structure and create growth moving us towards our destiny or the way forward at least for the current time frame and path.

 

We are now at a mature stage in life, have met many challenges and realized that we are stronger than we might otherwise have thought previously.  How else did we get this far? 

 

In many ways we did this on our own although when we speak of the opposition (Saturn to Saturn). We can now listen to advice from others before making decisions that will affect the rest of our time on earth.  We may find those that we deem as authority figures and that are reliable connections can be of assistance to us. 

 

This can be the time to make a commitment to future growth and if we have felt off our path, this is the time to find where our path should be.  At around the age of 72, we experienced the return of Jupiter to its original position and this placement, which is often a growth and expansive period, can enhance where we are heading now. 

 

Each of us entering this timeframe of our lives will have opportunities, although not often seen in this aspect, to reflect and make significant changes, knowing that we oversee our lives and our attitudes. 

 

We will need to check the house where our Natal Saturn is found and the house that Transiting Saturn now occupies to get a clearer picture of what potential lies ahead.  At the same time, look at the aspects to the natal Saturn along with other aspects currently activating this and other parts of the chart. 

 

The Nodal positioning by sign and house will give deeper insight as to what this time in life is about and what direction we might want to take.  Some will know they are on path at this time and will not need to make choices on direction and much of this will be defined by the natal potential found within the birth chart.

 

Oppositions are said to be challenging but much depends on our view of what is taking place and how much attention we give to those that are speaking to us.  Take their advice and do not be offended. Listen carefully to what is being provided to you and get beneath the surface on any issue.

REAR-VIEW MIRROR

Occasionally, we may wish things had stayed the same, and we try to live while looking in the rear-view mirror. There are other occasions when we thank our lucky stars that we are out of past situations, and they are behind us.

 

Whether these were pleasant times or challenging times, for some individuals it does not seem to matter. They hold on to yesterday. 

 

The past is gone and will never return in its past glory or in its failed ventures (however you view it).  People leave us, times change, and we work our way through these temporary interchanges.  It is important to move forward without holding on to the past. Living in the past serves no current productive purpose.  The past taught us valuable lessons that we should utilize in our current ventures but we can’t venture forth without letting go.

 

Even looking towards our future and thinking in terms of what might be is somewhat futile. We really have little idea of what lies ahead.  This does not mean that we should not be prepared for our future but there will be many twists and turns that will be unforeseen.  Plan but be flexible.

 

All we truly have is the ever-present now. Living in the moment allows us to live to the fullest.  Be here now and experience the moment.  It is all you really have.

ARE YOU READY?

Now that we are over two weeks into the New Year, it would be a good time to reflect on what last year held for us.  Whether we considered it a good year, or not so good, does not matter anymore as it is now a part of our history.  As with each new day we experience, we are now in the process of a new beginning with a new year, 2024.  What lies ahead is uncertain, but the potential is always there for either great or small steps towards our objectives.

 

After our reflection of last year, perhaps rather than focusing on objectives linked to material achievements moving forward, we can ponder on what needs work on an inner basis for 2024.  There is nothing wrong with focusing on objectives linked to our material world, but that is so commonplace. Let’s change it up and ask ourselves what we can create in this new year. Let’s even contemplate what we would want to bring forward if this were to be our last year.  (We are not suggesting that it is your last year but looking at life from that perspective can push us towards something that truly matters deeply for us).

 

Changes from within offer the potential to bring lasting results and truly can bring out the best in us.  We might not see it in our immediate surroundings, but we will likely feel it on some level within. 

 

You will have to be honest with yourself and not push away anything that requires sincere reflection and possibly hard work (not to mention challenging realizations).  The more difficult the reflection, the more rewarding the experience and the aftereffects.  It is yours to conquer and rise above.  We may have to rethink some of our personal pursuits. As one change occurs, others often follow.

 

There is no failure even though at times it may feel that way. “Failure” is only a valuable lesson that helps us to adjust and move forward.  How then can we call it a failure? We can’t fail in our efforts, even what we call a failure brings valuable information and lessons. 

 

Again, in a year from now you can look back to review what you have accomplished in 2024 with great satisfaction due to yourself honesty and effort. 

 

For today, be open and know that you are ready to step forward.  It is your time; spend it wisely. 

 

All the best in your pursuit of wholeness in 2024.

 

Are you ready?

SIGNIFICATORS OF CHANGE

Change is a guarantee in life. Sometimes change requires our participation and other times, change just happens.  It is my opinion that change happens because change is due.

 

There are times when we just know that our lives will take huge turns because of outside influences.  In some cases, who we become after the turn of events would be unrecognizable to our earlier self.  Significant changes occur especially when we are younger and learning the basics, when we morph into adults and again, later in life when we develop into mature adults.

 

If we were to look back even five years, we are not who we were then.  Our core identity, deep within, however, never seems to change. It just expands. 

 

Some of us refer to these changes as levels of enlightenment and awakening.  Some find that our destiny just seems to mold us.

 

Life circumstances change and we adjust.  Relationships change, occupation can change, lifestyle and appearances will change.  We either adapt or struggle with what life presents to us.  Sometimes life makes suggestions (or should I say insists) for change and we can’t ignore it. We get little hints that these changes are required along the way.  With these hints, we can dig deep into ourselves to rediscover or recognize who we are and what we are becoming to facilitate adjustments to enhance this masterpiece. If required, we can completely change direction and start anew, if need be.

 

Change is inevitable. We can decide to take that leap of faith and trust life with the changes it is presenting. Believe that change is for the better even when it does not look that way initially.

 

We must learn when to move ahead and when to stay where we are. We often get glimpses of what potential lies ahead.  We are not at the mercy of life as we can adapt and change with the circumstances. We are at the mercy of what we decide to take on as our own and our attitude towards life’s blessings and its lessons.

DO NOT BE DISMAYED

At times, we can feel alone, disenchanted, unloved and we feel abandoned.  This can be especially true around the holidays or when we are comparing ourselves to others.  We can become distressed, unorganized, worried, and anxious about where life is taking us or not taking us.  We wish for a glimmering hope of better days ahead.

 

We wonder if things will ever shift, and this is when most of us decide to find our way out. The first step would be to face these issues head on. Dive deep! Where do these issues stem from and what are they teaching us?

 

Push yourself to take the first step.

 

Challenges can feel like we made a wrong turn but there are no wrong turns in life. While in the midst of a challenge, especially one that we are trying to hide from, this concept may be difficult to understand let alone accept.  But running away from issues is not the easy way. More often than not, the issue keeps resurfacing.  It will persist until we have learned the lesson at hand.

 

If we dig in and are determined, we gain strength, self-confidence, valuable insight and knowledge from the experience.  All things pass, and if we persevere and push ourselves, the lessons are learned and our reality (or maybe our perspective) shifts.

 

Stand your ground as you are stronger than you think.  You will reap the rewards from your challenges even during those times it feels as though it is just one thing after another.  Sometimes life goes this way when you want it to go that way but life continually shifts. There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons.

 

Do not be dismayed.  You can and will make your way through.  Dig in and take charge!

FLEXIBLE DEMEANOR

How do you present yourself to the public?

 

Do you project confidence?

 

Perhaps you are a gentle individual who does not like strife or aggression. Perhaps, on the opposite side of the coin, you come across as aggressive or a force to be reckoned with or perhaps you are somewhere in between.

 

We are not always who we project ourselves to be. Sometimes the way we project ourselves to the world is nothing like who we are inside but how we think we should be.

 

There are times when the gentle, passive individual needs to be assertive to get things moving. There are times when the more assertive individual needs to soften their approach to be heard.

 

If you know that the time is ripe for advancement, you may have to use a more assertive demeanor, but this can be uncomfortable. However, if the time has come and your more aggressive interaction has only alienated you or put things on hold, it might be time to step back and let someone else take a leading role or pursue a more gentle approach. 

 

Sometimes we must make a shift to our demeanor and project ourselves in a more appropriate manner, whatever that manner may be. This may go against your normal approach but be flexible and shift when needed.

 

Read the situation, know your audience and be flexible with your demeanor.

PLUTO SQUARE MIDHEAVEN

When transiting Pluto squares your midheaven (MC) challenging situations will affect your career options, life status, goals and aspirations and life’s path. This is not an easy time, and you will have to adjust and often to a great degree. Intensity and disruption along with adversity can be expected.

 

There are no halfway measures about Pluto and in many cases, what takes place is out of your control. You can fight the process, which in some cases can be beneficial) but, in this case, you may have to go with the flow and recognize these energies over time will move you in the proper direction (although perhaps not in the direction you anticipated).

 

There can be power strategies and ego disputes and almost always a struggle to gain insight into where life is taking you. There can often be a degree of uncertainty especially when Neptune is involved in the calculation. Worry and concern about your future is often evident because of the uncertainty.

 

As with all transiting squares, however, the energy is challenging enough that it forces you into action. A resolution is needed, and you will find one if you go deep enough. Sometimes attitude is your greatest enemy.

 

Your goals in life will likely change and your path will alter, but the outer planets when transiting over parts of your chart are indicators that change is required. Although it may feel like the rug is being pulled out from under your feet, you will find a way to land on your feet with new perspectives and a new path as you move forward into what now seems like the unknown. Faith in the process is vital and although the struggle may be intense, you need to keep your wits about you. Don’t let life get you down and believe that this is for the best, no matter how things might look in the moment.

 

Everything in life happens for a reason. Take the bull by the horns and adjust when you need to and know that as time progresses you will recover, be in a better position and be wiser when the dust settles.

TRANSITING URANUS SEXTILE NATAL VENUS

With this aspect you can expect changes in the areas of love and affection, socializing, and finances. Uranus brings changes that are required to move you forward. Sometimes these changes are sudden and completely unexpected while at other times you “feel” or know that the potential is there for things to make a move.

 

Uranus acts in quick and unusual ways bringing about an awakening of sorts to what it touches. It invites “new” to situations that require change. When Venus is involved perhaps this could involve a love affair that you never saw coming, or perhaps you have been friends and now the relationship goes to the next level. You may feel ill-prepared and may never have considered this individual on a love relation level. Perhaps things just happen out of the blue and one thing led to another. Now it may seem as though this was a fated encounter.

 

Venus, definitely speaks of love and affection, can also refers to a younger woman. It is likely females that we are speaking of whether this be you or it is speaking of a female counterpart. Perhaps your friends set up a social gathering where you met. Perhaps you were celebrating something, and this individual connected with you.

 

As mentioned, this can also speak of your finances and beautiful objects. Perhaps on a whim you decided it was time to buy a new car or perhaps you decided it was time to sign a mortgage.

 

Watch for Uranus being retrograde as this can restrict its energies. Review what you might want to buy or where you place your attention at this time, and if possible, wait until the retrograde period is completed.

 

E.g., if T Uranus is conjuncting the MC as it sextiles your Venus, you get a raise or you become more social with those that you work with (this is more likely if Uranus or Venus is in the sixth house). The sextile is an opportunity aspect, and the energies are ripe for more positive potential to arrive. You should review your objectives, especially with love, affection and your finances, then take advantage of your options. Make sure you check out your full chart before you advance, as any challenging influences can hinder things or influence bad decisions.

FULL MOON IN ARIES

On September 29, 2023, we will experience an Aries Full Moon at 6° (First decant).

 

A full moon is the harvest time of our efforts from seeds plants some six months earlier under the energies of the New Moon in Aries. For those that are affected by this Full Moon, the efforts they expended will be reflected in the fruits of their labor.

 

The sign Aries is often associated with a new beginning and with this New Moon/Full Moon energies what you initiated is likely something very personal in nature. It may have been something that you started with or without the help of others and it has your personal stamp on it. You may have started a business or initiated something that had been sitting on the backburner. Perhaps you began a love relationship that is now maturing and either moves to the next level or ends.

 

There are other energies involved. Transiting planets Venus and Uranus are square to one another often indicating some type of change taking hold in the area of relationships or your finances. There must be indicators in your natal chart before this applies to you. If there are, you can expect the unexpected and it might happen in an erratic and unusual manner.

 

There are no other transiting planetary energies attached to the location of the Full Moon at 6° Aries, but your natal chart might say otherwise.

 

Aries is about taking the initiative and forging ahead with or without much planning. What you do or how you move forward might be considered by some as ego oriented or self-consuming. Your actions, however, must suit your objectives first and then have their outward expression. There is a degree of “What do I need?” in this Full Moon in Aries and you must come first. It is time to think about what is best for you and how you can go about making changes or following through with whatever will benefit your goals.

 

The house positioning and aspects from the natal chart to this placement will tell the story and those that are affected by this placement will realize that what they plan and work towards has potential to come to fruition.

A WINNING HAND

Are you playing all your (life) cards?

 

Will you play this round with the best of intensions and with a winning attitude?

 

Life is not like a card game; however, we do have to play with what we have in front of us. It is better when we understand the process and when to move ahead and when to stand back. As Kenny Rogers sang, “We have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them”. There is a strategy to life, just as there is in a game of cards. It can take time to move ahead and we learn from previous plays or in real terms from previous decisions.

 

As in a game of cards, life will throw us twists and turns and sometimes we can make things work and other times we just must accept that this is just the way things are. Attitude as mentioned countless times before is a big part in the process and we can fight the inevitable and feel frustrated or we can change our attitude and life then seems more promising.

 

Some individuals seem to be dealt a winning hand while others have many struggles along their life’s path. Do not compare your journey to others’ journeys. You only know what you see and there is much more to someone’s life than what is on the surface. Focus on your life and ask yourself, “what can I do to make things easier or better” and more importantly “what did I learn from this experience?” There are always lessons. Be ready to learn.

 

Accept your life in the moment and be open to something favorable coming your way. Formulate an action plan that will build momentum in your favor as you move along. You can expect delays and shortcomings, but you can also expect rewards and benefits you may never had dream of.

 

We can only play the cards we are dealt. What can you do to make the best of what you have in the moment? Tomorrow is another day; it is always a whole new story.

 

Remember your perception has a big influence on how you feel. If it is less than ideal, make alterations to your expectation and your focus.

 

Life might not seem as though it is in your hands but you have full control of your attitude and focus.

 

You do have a winning hand!

AUTUMNAL OR FALL EQUINOX

September 23, 2023, we (north of the equator) will experience the Autumnal or Fall Equinox at 02:50 a.m. EDT.

 

The Fall equinox (Mabon) acknowledges and celebrates the rewards of our hard labour and the gathering of our harvest. The Fall equinox is a time of reflection on the harvest of our achievements and often considered a time of change. It is linked to the astrological sign of Libra which above all else is a sign that requires balance. Our current balance requirement is knowing what we need to hold on to and what we need to let go of.

 

Now is the time to reap the rewards of our labour but if we have not sown the seeds of life in the manner we should have, we may have to sacrifice because of the shortfalls and count our losses.

 

Astrologically, the Fall equinox represents finding a balance within our self-image and within any disapproval that is found in our view of self. How can you change that disapproval to approval?

 

This is a time to review our life’s goals and the conquests we have made. This review will assist us in recognizing our abilities and true selves.

 

The spring and fall equinox are known as cardinal points. The cardinal points in the horoscope are known as action points. They are used as timing devices and lead to activity, drive, ambition, and involvement. The fall equinox is the end or culmination point of whatever action you have already taken similar to the Full Moon’s energies. It is a time to actively pursue a course of action, to take control of your life and push forward in the direction of your choice. Cardinal signs are action oriented and strive for activity that is often personally initiated. Do not wait for or rely on others to make things happen.

 

This will be the time to push ahead with the harvest of your efforts or count your losses and set new things in motion. Use the energies of the equinox to push forward and make the changes you need. Address any situation that needs your focus. The time has come to move beyond any stagnated stages of life that have held you back. Now is the time to reap the rewards after a busy season of planting the seeds and nurturing growth. The efforts you put forth are now ready to be harvested.
