Sun in Libra

The Sun is now in the sign of Libra and this post applies to those who are born with the Sun in Libra or have a Libra Ascendant.  The difference between having a Sun sign in Libra and having an Ascendant in Libra primarily is that the Sun sign is normally reflective of our inner character while the Ascendant usually depicts our outer personality--the personality we reveal to the world and our first reaction to outside stimuli.

 

With this placement strong in your Chart, life is a balancing act.  People with this Sun sign always need to find balance in life and particularly within their important relationships.  Because of this need for balance and harmony in their life, some of these individuals are often said to change direction in mid-stream, just to avoid confrontation.  They have an uncanny ability to see both sides of almost any situation and are great at the art of compromise in order to keep things at peace.

 

They sway from side to side making alterations to keep everyone happy although they are very open to dialogue within their personal relationships and are not afraid to rock the boat when necessary.   Justice is their prime concern and they carefully analyse situations to decide what the best route to take is.  This makes them comfortable in making decisions on behalf of those around them that require guidance.  They see something positive in most circumstances.  These individuals make great mediators.

 

In partnership, and as mentioned this is a primary focus of their life, they strive for peace and harmony but often have trouble taking responsibility for their actions.  They would rather push the blame on others to avoid taking responsibility for a condition gone astray. 

 

Libra people are very social and eager to cooperate for the general good of others.  This makes them very approachable and they are usually well liked.  Seeking the middle ground is their prime objective and if the truth is unpleasant, they will find a little white lie to absorb the blunt of what the truth might represent.  In their mind, these little white lies can protect others as well as themselves and it is ok to use this tactic to save face or hurt.

 

Because of this need for balance and harmony at almost any cost, some Libra individuals have difficulties making a stand.  They are often found sitting on the fence and to some of the more assertive signs in the Zodiac, this character trait is viewed as somewhat weak.  Libra individuals are always looking for the right way to express life or the best way to deal with life when problems could arise.  Harmony is the ultimate condition that they seek and although many have high expectations in life, they are quite willing to let things slide in order to maintain that middle ground that is so appealing to them.

 

It is no wonder that their symbol is the scales of justice.  Their goal is to bringing equality to all and fairness into all situations, without pondering too heavily on what these inherent traits represent to the world at large.  Balance, harmony and peace are the hallmarks of this justice oriented sign and peace at any cost would be their mantra.

As a special request to all of our followers and friends, we would appreciate your sharing this message of peace with your friends and acquaintances through whatever means you are comfortable using. 

 

Our world is going through a phase of reorientation; and due to the magnitude of the changes that are unfolding on our planet, many of our brothers and sisters, both near and far, are meeting challenging situations in their lives.  Their hardships and in many cases horrendous living conditions are unspeakable to say the least. 

 

We as a group, however, can focus our attention through meditation, prayer or any other forms of focus to help facilitate an offering of peace, compassion and love for those caught up in this plight.  Working together as a group we can send healing energy and love to all the corners of our world.

 

This focus can have a ripple effect as we bring together our focus and our minds in a joined effort on the weekend beginning on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26 THROUGH TO AND INCLUDING SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2014.  If you are so inclined, please concentrate your focus/energy around bedtime for approximately one-half hour, or whatever time you have available, on one or on each of these days.  We can send healing energy, love and compassion to any and all of our earthly extended family members.  If you have someone in particular you would like to send your healing energy to, you could spend the last ten minutes of your allotted time to focus primarily on them.

 

Please help us to assist our world in its time of need.  We would appreciate it if you could share our intent as there is even more power in numbers.  Help us to work together and make a difference.

Acts of Kindness

Do you carry out acts of kinds as an automatic response or is it necessary for you to purposely push yourself to show kindness to another?  In the end, does it matter if you are driven or if the action is automatic?  The importance is the outcome.

 

Have you ever sat down and asked yourself what the influence of your random acts of kindness may have been for the individuals they were directed at?........or how many unseen, countless others? 

 

Many acts of kindness are similar to watching a ripple of water made from a boat on a quiet, calm lake.  The wake from the boat, no matter how small, will continue on its path until it reaches the other side of the lake.  The reaction from a small act of kindness is very similar.  The act does not have to be something enormous to have a rolling impact.  These wonderful, random acts come from the heart and more often than not there is no expectation of anything in return. 

 

Should we not then live our lives in this fashion?  Should we not offer random acts of kindness--through in whatever form suits you in that moment?

 

Even though this act may seem insignificant to you, this has little bearing on its impact as it continues across the proverbial lake.  There is no telling where it may end up.  Perhaps all one needs is a smile or a “Have a good day”.  You are planting a seed within that person.  Even the smallest of seeds can mature into a mighty tree. 

 

There may be someone out there who needs the seeds of your action.  Never rule this out.  It IS so very possible.  Spread the joy of life by living it to the fullest and acknowledging the fact that you have life, each and every day.

The Yod or Finger of God in Astrology Part II

This post is a continuation of our post from September 16, 2014.

 

Continuing with our focus on the Yod, the focal point or planet that receives both inconjuncts is activated through transit especially when stimulated by conjunction or opposition.  When this configuration is stimulated by transit, the transformation will take place.  This transformation often presents the individual with a new way of thinking about matters related to the house where the focal planet is located.  Feelings are activated due to this new way of relating to this area of life (described by the house placement of the focal planet).

 

The individual will undergo turning points in their life and often confront predicaments or difficult and challenging conditions which are resolved through this change in awareness and perception.  These life changing experiences often produce a new life’s path or destiny, as it somehow seems fated in its nature.

 

When the individual involved uses these energies appropriately, it can lead to spiritual awareness and an understanding of the workings of the universe.  This may happen very quickly or take longer to absorb depending on the planet making the aspect to this configuration and its energies.  Uranus would alter things considerably and the alteration would happen rather quickly and unexpectedly, while Saturn would slowly unravel these events and it would take some time for the individual to comprehend. 

 

In most cases, it would take a certain amount of time for the individual to digest what has taken place to understand the extreme manifestation that has taken hold in their lives.

 

There is often a feeling of new found insights and a flowing of the energy in new directions which increases awareness.  The individual would be more centred on their mission in life than previously.  Often the events leading up to this transformation are very challenging but usually necessary.  If by chance the Natal chart has three or more quintiles linked to this or even if they are not linked, the individual often experiences a surge in the creative forces that may have been lying in dormant conditions waiting to unravel.  Creativity is often a by-product of transit to this configuration and is often linked to the house of the focal planet and area of life it represents.

Unlikely Road

As we plan our lives, we must remember that due to life’s unexpected turning points things rarely work out the way we plan.  The best laid plans often go astray because of our lack of knowledge of things to come.  This is not to say that we should not plan for our future, only that we should understand that we have to be flexible enough to adjust and make alterations along the way.

 

We plan our lives with little understanding of how it will unfold and this is why many of us are caught off guard as situations change.  We somehow believe we have control of our life’s course and to a certain extent we do, but life has a way of taking us where we need to go as opposed to where we think we should go.

 

We set out preparing and making plans early in life.  We prepare for an education which will promote a vocation that interests us.  Sometimes these plans come to fruition while other times life takes us in a completely different direction.  Needless to say, we have to adjust along the way. 

 

As we take up our careers or profession, the actual job may be quite different from what we imagined.  Again, if we are flexible and open, we can adjust to these unknown circumstances or qualities to our careers and move forward with a new attitude towards that which we have chosen to do.

 

Marriage and children can also be quite different from what you had envisioned when planning your life.  If we are rigid in our expectations, we set ourselves up for disappointment.  We must learn to go with the flow of life and accept with arms open whatever life sends our way.  We always have control over our response to what life is offering. 

 

If we remain open and realize that, in many ways, life will lead us.  We will travel the road we are meant to travel.  Strive for your goals but accept that which you cannot change.  By doing so, your life’s unraveling story will be a much easier experience.  Even when life seems unfair, understanding our purpose allows us to move forward on our intended route. 

 

We are in control on a mental and subconscious level.  Our higher self knows what is best for our evolutionary progress.  Knowing that we are always continually moving forward allows the acceptance of life’s path much easier.  

 

Have faith that you are always exactly on track--always on purpose.  There are no wrong turns and no mistakes. 

 

Adaptability, versatility and faith allow for the evolution of the person, the mind and the soul.

Yod or Finger of God in Astrology

The Yod or Finger of God is an astrological configuration that requires two planets to be in sextile with one another and then both of these planets inconjunct to a third planet.  The orb should be no more than 5 degrees in separation and the tighter the orb the stronger the emphasis is on the focal planet.  The focal planet is the single planet receiving both inconjuncts from each planet in sextile to one another.  For example, if Mars and Venus were in sextile to one another and they both inconjunct the Moon, the focal planet would be the Moon.

 

The focal planet’s sign placement defines the way in which the energy of this force needs to be corrected or re-experienced.  The energy of the focal planet (in our example the Moon which deals with emotional expression and needs) suggests that there is a need for emotional or mental re-adjustment, as inconjuncts are about adjustments.  The house placement of the focal planet is the area of life which needs to be transformed and this is where the transformation will take place.

 

The focal planet is a very delicate point because the inconjuncts produce subconscious or hidden tension, which often surfaces as physical or psychological issues until these problems are resolved.  This focal planet describes our calling or mission in life.  It often feels as though our calling with this focal planet is fated as it is something that needs developing.  The negative ramifications must be released and let go of permanently.  In turn, this will make way for the maximum manifestation of this configuration to take place.

 

The far midpoint of the two planets in sextile is considered an energy point and when activated through transit along with the focal point, the energies are released and an opportunity (which is indicative of the meaning of the sextiles) is manifested. 

 

Upon releasing the negative energies, one will experience a new way of being and often produces heightened intuitive abilities and mystical experiences.  This is particularly strong when the midpoint between the two sextiles (30 degrees from each planet in sextile) contains a planet.  This is known as a Tetradic Yod.

 

As the Yod is so in-depth, we will continue our explanation on Thursday, September 18, 2014.
