IS YOU MOMENTUM SLOWING DOWN?

Does your spiritual or mystical growth seem to be stagnating?  Are you questioning if you are reverting back or that your progress might not continue? 

There can be times when the energies just do not seem to flow easily.  Sometimes there are extenuating circumstances from outside influences that we allow to penetrate into our focus.  Simply put we have allows a block to be erected which is now jamming the positive flow of energy.  Is this a test of our commitment to what we believe?  If we cannot stand behind our beliefs structures during stressful times, what value is there in these beliefs?

 

It is normal from time to time to experience lulls with the receipt of information or insights.  We can experience massive leaps forward and then a seemingly stop in progress.  Maybe these are period to apply the knowledge that we have gains so that it becomes second nature to us.  We are evolving.  Have patience.  Is patience the lesson at hand?

Sometimes ego can cause great interference in our evolution.  This can happen when we are actually moving forward quite well, as ego can slip in, in the most subtle ways.  For some reason, ego feels threatened yet in reality it takes its rightful place at ours side and can assist us when needed in a positive way.  You can call this transformation a regenerative period when ego is in its lesser state, a state of confusion and fear.  In this state it is aligned with negativity.  When we align our focus with source, ego to will align and help to aid us in our ongoing evolving story called “life”.

Don’t be dismayed during these lulls.  It will only last as long as it takes for us to become aware that ego is intruding or whatever other barrier we have erected.  When we stop identifying with its negative intent and taking it on as our own or tear down the barriers, we again will pick up momentum.  The mind can be stimulated in many directions and we, the ones that are listening, decide which course to take.  Sometimes we lose track of our identity and get lost in the process, but once we realign, we find our way back (even though we were never lost).

There are other times in our busy lives when life just seems to dictate and we find we have little time for our own personal journey.  Children, work, parents and life seem to dictate where we need to focus in this material work, and yes it is important to make time for these.  We should, however, take time each day especially in the most busy schedules to service our own personal needs.  Perhaps we can find a few minutes to meditate.  It is not necessary to set aside a lot of time to find our meditation zone once we have had a little practice.  Utilize those short moments....at a stop light, in the washroom, waiting in line.  Put these times to good use.  Something just a couple of moments of meditation can put us back into rhythm so that we feel we are progressing again.

It should be noted that even when life seems to dictate, we are still on path.  We are meant to “sway” (so we think)  from time to time and we can use this time to review where we are in life and realize that our connection to spirit is actually much stronger than it was even 6 months ago.  It is all a state of mind and your personal perception can be altered whenever you want.  Do not be discouraged.  Every moment is new.  Once we recognize this and we can stop fighting the process.  Enjoy each and every moment that life is providing you with.  Being in the moment is such a wonderful stress reliever.  There is nothing to worry about within the moment.  The past is behind you and the future is not here....just this moment.....right now.  What a blessing. 

If you are struggling to move forward or are overwhelmed with the barriers you are facing, Astrology shows areas that are restrictive and areas that are holding back your progress.  A chart is quite beneficial to help identify these barriers so that we can tear them down.

SUN IN PISCES FORECAST 2017, Part II

We are continuing our look at the 2017 forecast for those with their Sun in Pisces.  Part I was posted March 3, 2017.   

Transiting Saturn will be in square for any Piscean with their Sun from about 13 to 14 degrees to 29 degrees and 59 minutes.  Saturn can be a little rigid when it comes to seeing things as they are.  It challenges you to be very realistic in your view of what is taking place especially from a mystical point of view, which is a focus of Neptune the ruler of Pisces.

Saturn is in the sign of Sagittarius right up until the middle of December of 2017.  It then moves into its natural sign of Capricorn.  Sagittarius is all about higher learning especially connected to teachings that are of a higher order.  This could include philosophy and religious doctrines.  Saturn, especially when in square, presents us with obstacles to overcome, challenges to rise above and although the road may be somewhat tedious, its rewards us for diligent hard work.  Once we have moved beyond these challenges there will be a solid foot for the road ahead.  Saturn builds solid structure in your life often after weak structures have been torn down.

When dealing with the Sun, these challenges can be related to your goals and aspirations.  It is what dreams are made of and in order to achieve these inspirations, you need to rise above earthly matters and move into the mystical side of life.  The Sun in Pisces seeks inspiration and mystical understanding and as you can imagine with the energies of earthy Saturn, the outcome may be hard to digest.  Saturn looks for something concrete and viable, and Pisces seeks the ultimate truth from learning gained through higher channels.

Watch for allowing lower energies to slip in over this period and it is best to set up an exercise routine and proper eating habits.  You will need to look after yourself and also stay away from any negativity; the potential for becoming depressed or somewhat down and out during this aspect is heightened but if you allow, your emotional state will not be as affected.  If you are aiming to achieve something specific make sure you take one step at a time and do not do more than one thing at a time.  Finish off what you started completely before you begin something new.  Any detailed work might be right up your alley, especially where you are allowed to use your imagination.  Creativity is enhanced when set in motion.

It will feel like you are going through a testing period and you probably are.  You are being tested with your spiritual connections and learning the difference between fact and fantasy.  You will find that only solid structures in these areas will survive the scrutiny that you will be put through.  You will feel as though you need proof but do not be dissuade by this.  Anything real, regardless of how far out it may seem, will be proven over time.  If disproved, it will fall by the wayside. 

Watch for running from the truth regardless of what the truth might be.  Accept what stands before you without question if it is real, once you have taken the necessary steps to come to this conclusion.  Life always unfolds as it should and there are no mistakes along the road of life.  Even when it feels like we make wrong turns, we always end up on the right path.  We just might think we lose sight of it for a while.

Transit and Progression Chart

A Transit and Progression Chart is an excellent forecasting tool.

PISCES FORECAST, 2017, PART I

 Jupiter will be moving through one whole Astrological sign during 2017.  It moves through Libra completely from 13 degree and onward and then moves into the sign of Scorpio later in the year.

If you have your Sun in Pisces from and within orb of Jupiter in the sign of Libra (7 to 29 degrees) you will be experiencing the quincunx aspect from February to October 2017.  Quincunx or inconjuncts are known to produce some stress in life although with the planet Jupiter as part of this aspect, the stress will not be overly profound.  It is more about expansion through spirituality or religious inclinations or teachings.  The quincunx speaks in terms of stress because of the need for adjustment and can make things uncomfortable if you decide to become immovable or are unwilling to make the adjustments required.  Go with the flow.

Jupiter in the sign of Libra speaks in terms of balancing life.  This could include your relationships, especially your significant other.  It can also be in more personal areas of life.  There is a need for harmony and at the same time, justice for any wrong doings in the past and/or in current situations.  There could be marriage problems that now need to be faced and acknowledged and then dealt with.  Sun in Pisces people (and this is in general terms, the whole chart will have to be examined to find other mitigating factors), is a sign that often has problems when dealing with hard-core facts, especially when they become emotional or hard to face.  Check to see which house transiting Jupiter is moving through as well as the house of your natal Sun.  These will clarify which areas of life will be involved.  An example would be, if the 3^rd and 4^th houses are involved, there might be issues within the family where communication is lacking and some adjustment will have to be dealt with.

Seeing things as they are could be challenging at this time and not allowing the mind to interfere with what is actually taking place is what needs to be manifested.  Imagination plays a key role in what is unfolding and keeping track of what is real will be important.  Watch for escapist attitudes where you may want to run and hide from the truth through substance abuse.  If these problems are too difficult to handle, you might want to seek professional support. 

On another level, you could find that your mystical understandings and spiritual insights have a great potential for expansion during this time.  This is where you will need to make the adjustments.  Once again make sure you are seeing things as they truly are and that you are not allowing imaginative slights to interfere with the process.  This can be an enlightening period if you choose to follow this route.

When Jupiter moves into the sign of Scorpio, it will be in trine to those that have their Sun in the early degrees of Pisces right through into the later degrees, even as far as 24 to 25 degrees of Pisces.  This trine will be in effect from October, 2017 to the end of the year.  Trines speak of easy flow so many of the Piscean people that were affected by the earlier quincunx transit may now have dealt with the issues mentioned.  If changes were made to adjust to life circumstances, the floodgates may now be open for further insight and positive experiences as time goes by.  This will carry over into 2018.

Once again check the houses involved and also see if you have an aspect between Jupiter and Neptune in your natal chart as this will give you further information as to how these energies will be unleashed.

Part II of this forecast will be posted Monday, March 6, 2017.  What more can you expect in the upcoming year?

OUR PHYSICAL WORLD & ITS OPPORTUNITIES

Many ask if it is wrong to focused on material living. 

We are living a physical life and materialism is part of survival in the 21^st century and survival is certainly part of our life’s mission.  Becoming overly fixated in material living however can stifle and stagnate our evolutionary process.  We need not be so engulfed in material living that it forsakes or takes the place of our development. 

We have incarnated into physical form and are living in a material world.  Many important lessons are learned from money.  Money alone teaches us many lessons, whether we learn this through lack of security, through greed and corruption or through charity.  There are certainly many paths we can take to reach the summit of our earthly education.

In many ways security and material comforts bring feelings of abundance and a certain amount of satisfaction from a job well done or a contract well carried out.  We have come to learn about earthly living and in many ways these teachings will move us forward and can have more impact than the softer lessons sometimes brought on through spirituality (probably why we are here). 

Always give your best in your chosen career and work your hardest at anything life sends your way.  There is no such thing as a menial job or a job that holds no relevance.  Everything we do, even our daily activities, is significant and eventual bear the fruits of our labour.  Sometimes the rewards we seek go far beyond money and all its material connotations.  Personal satisfaction holds important merit.  We have come to learn, so let us not push aside the importance of our material life.

We are not suggesting that spirituality and higher learning is not as important.  Mystical unfolding is in a category all on its own.  We have reiterated this many times.  Today, however, we wanted to remind you that this physical experience is important too.  It should and does have impact on our growth. 

Do not be afraid to go out into this world.  Do a job well done.  Become comfortable or even wealthy, but don’t walk on any toes in the process.  Experience the lessons that are personal to you and let our material world unfold its own magic.

TRANSITING NEPTUNE OPPOSITION VENUS

If transiting Neptune is in opposition (180 degrees) to your Venus, your natal Venus will be In Virgo around the time of sharing this post.  Venus in Virgo can be overly analytical and potentially critical when it comes to love and affection.  Rather than spending time recognizing the positive qualities linked to their lover, they may spend too much time thinking about what is missing or what is wrong with the relationship.  This can create problems and the partner in the relationship may feel as though they are never doing enough or never meeting your expectations.  Venus in Virgo is often looking for the perfect mate, an idealized individual.  These individuals may even place their lover on a pedestal of very high standards and expect characteristics that very few people are capable of having.

I acknowledge that I am spending some time referring to the more negative manifestations of Venus in Virgo because we are about to discuss the opposition to Neptune.  Neptune may put that partner on a pedestal and you may over idealize their true potential.  What is possible within the relationship may be coloured by what you imagine the relationship could/should be.  Seeing things as they are may be something that you are not willing to undertake.  Often the real characteristics of this person are revealed after the transit has run its course.

This is not to say that the perfect lover cannot be found during this opposition, but the possibilities are not overly promising.  It is rare to meet that perfect individual or it is rare that your current lover or husband is perfect.  We must remind ourselves that we, including our partners, are human.  Seeing this individual in their true light is what is required during this aspect and recognize that everyone has flaws and no one is perfect.  If you look at this relationship with clear vision, you are less likely to become saddened or disappointed when the visual or mental perceptions created by this aspect have cleared.

Your expectations may be unrealistic or the other person’s expectations may be too high.  These expectations do not have to come from you.  Although, because of you have Venus in Virgo, the potential is higher that it is you that feels these things and not your partner. 

You may be finding that the real world has become rather boring and has nothing to offer in an enlightening manner.  Now there is a possibility that someone may come into your life that offers some light and helps you through these feelings. 

With this aspect, sometimes communication is not overly clear with your lover.  Sometimes hidden motives are part of the equation.  It is best to be on your guard and not be lead astray because of your imagination and clouded visions during this period.  It is always best to take a realistic view of things and even ask others what their perception of the situation might be.  They will see things a little clearer than what you might during this aspect.

Another outlet for this opposition would be your creativity, and you may find that others seem to push you in directions that appeal to this creativity.  The creative experience can be linked to all kinds of inspired endeavours, and it is actually a good time to explore any new avenues of expression during this time.  Your imagination is expanded now, and you might be surprised at your innovative potential.

Make a marked choice to go into things without any expectations during this aspect if this is possible.  Be open and see where things take you.  Over time, all that we have referred to will become clearer, and you will know where you stand.  Imagination is a great thing when it works with you but can be misleading and you might be led astray by it.

ENHANCING YOUR ENERGY FIELD

What is our energy field?  Does it range in frequency?  What can we do to enhance its strength? 

Our energy field is our life’s force.  It is the energy that surrounds and permeates through our bodies.  It has been called our aura which can be seen by certain individuals as varying colours.  Our energy field can also be a reflection of what we expend outward during our daily life.  It varies in frequency by how we relate to our environment and mirrors that which we feel as a vibration.  It varies day to day depending on what thoughts we allow to transmit in our minds and how we feel about what it is we are experiencing in the moment.  Our physical wellbeing can also affect our energy field or is our physical wellbeing affected by our energy field?

Attitude plays a huge part in the process and our response to life is reflected in our vibration.  This vibration is constantly resonating out into the world.  Once again, we will use the image of a wave on the ocean which can be affected by weather or climate, (life circumstances) and passing vessels (information coming through).  We can be influences by the climate we live in and this climate (life circumstances) tends to influence our lives whether we are aware of it or not.  Once we become aware, we can take shelter from the tide (control our emotions and how we react to stimuli in our lives).

By channeling our focus in directions that add to our overall well-being and our immediate surroundings, we surge our energy field in these directions and can omit focusing on what we prefer not to follow or experience.  By focusing on love and compassion, we do not experience hate and indifference.  By nurturing love, we readily help those in need around us which adds to the energy field of love and peace.  By giving off this type of energy it will radiate from our core and will then be shared by those that meet us and this energy is also reflected into our environment.

Our energy field or vibes are a reflection of how we live our lives, how we view our lives and how we care for and aid those around us.  It radiates from us as do our moods.  For example, walk into a room where someone has just had an argument.  The saying goes “You could cut the air with a knife”.  Another example would be that gut feeling we get when we first meet someone.  We do not know this person but we certainly know if we would like to nurture a relationship with them or if we should simply walk away.  We can read each other’s energy fields if we are open to the energy.

Meditation and practicing visualization will push us in our direction of choice.  It can take time but we can open the door to perception and understanding and truth. 

There are countless energy fields in our world.  They may be calling us to join in with the conscious evolution that is occurring.  We can open our hearts and add to the loving energy so many fail to feel.  If we are focused on fear, we cannot feel love.  But if we are focused on love, we cannot hate.  Which energy do you choose to be a part of?
