TRANSITING SATURN TRINE SUN IN ARIES

Transiting Saturn moves from 27 degrees in Sagittarius retrograding (back) to 21 degrees this August (2017).  Then turns direct once again and will enter Capricorn on December 22, 2017.  During this time period, Saturn will trine anyone with their Sun in Aries from about 15 degrees to the final degree of that sign.  Saturn will then be in a square to anyone with the early degrees of their Sun in Aries towards the end of this year (2017).  We will discuss the trine between the Sun and Saturn in this post.

The trine between Saturn and the Sun offers opportunities for advancement in life.  Life seems to flow a little more smooth than usual, and there will be a great ability to get things done, especially those things that are in need of completion.  This could be a time of accomplishment and the harder those with this aspect work during this time the greater the chance for recognition from authority figures.  Some may even be promoted because the extra work is noticed and appreciated.  Hard work is the hallmark of Saturn and working towards an end is what is required.

Saturn does demand attention and often brings on more responsibilities and duties but the rewards can be quite substantial.  Setting goals is a good idea and planning for the future might work out well for those with this aspect.  What they are doing with their life on a professional level is laying a foundation that hopefully will stand the test of time.  They must make sure that they are building this foundation on solid ground.

This is a time for self-promotion and putting their best foot forward.  They may be pushed by others to stand on their own without help from anyone, but they should be fine with this.  After all, they are Arian.  Watch for too much aggression in pursuits and ask superiors what they think of the ideas.  These superiors just might approve of the ideas and even help you reach some of these goals.  It can work out favourably if those with this aspect do not skip any steps, as careful planning is what is required.  Don’t be hasty; don’t rush.  It takes time to build anything worthwhile.

If these individuals are thinking about starting their own business or securing a business that they have been working on, this is also a good time for such adventures, but all of the rules mentioned above apply.  Sure and slow, prepare well and do not leave anything undone.  These individuals may find that they will receive support, perhaps even financial backing, from those in positions of authority.  Possibly their fathers or father figures may offer some help. 

All in all it is a good time to move forward in life, although these Arians have to take into consideration the overall picture suggested by their natal chart and all of the transits with influence in their chart to get a clear understanding of what the Astrology chart is saying.

Death

As we age more and more loved ones pass on before us.  This can be an emotional reality as we get older and some of us may feel as though many of great value have been stolen from us.  These souls were a part of our lives and now the time we shared during this earthly experience is no longer.  We have to find ways to move forward without their physical bodies being a part of it.  In most cases for those of us, particularly in the western world, do not find this an easy task.  The more we fight the experience, the more pain we experience.

Ask anyone who has lost a loved one and they will agree that it takes time to recover from their loss and time does not heal wounds; our adjustment to the new way of living is what helps us to move beyond the separation.  It is a great challenge to find new ways to continue without their physical energies being with us.  We have to find ways to place our focus on other things and other people to bring a new type of joy into our lives.  We need to appreciate those that have moved on before us yet fill the gap in this material life.  No one can or will ever replace those that have passed on before us.

From a spiritual perspective, we can remind ourselves that their earthly purpose has been fulfilled.  Is this not something to celebrate?  We know that they are still with us in spirit and we even feel their presence from time to time.  Some of us dream of our loved ones and some of us are even lucky enough to communication on varying levels with them.  We even recognize their presences often.

It is said that those that have passed are never far away.  It is even said that when we think of them we draw them to us.  Death is not an ending but a rebirth where understanding and an awakening not known on earth is regained.  Their mission on earth has been completed and now they are called back to where we have come, much wiser and experienced than they were when we they first arrived, at least we suspect that this is the experience.

Remind yourself that you are a spiritual being living an earthly existence.  It is only temporary.  You have come to experience earthly lessons and to find understanding that is not as easily learned through the spiritual existence.  Our mission is to complete our earthly tasks, whatever they may be.  Our final day will come just as it is meant to. 

For those that do not have spiritual beliefs or religious beliefs, personal death or the passing of a loved one can be a frightening experience.  Some believe that nothing happens beyond our earthly experience and when we pass, we simply no longer exist….nothing more, nothing less.  They say that everything comes to an end; yet science says that energy is perpetual.  Many of us can know that there is existence on some level beyond passing from this earth as our life’s experiences have taught us this without question.  With this knowledge, we recognize that passing on cannot be an end but a new beginning.

We cannot fight the process for it is inevitable.  Experience and allow the sadness and grief when you have lost a loved one but do not take up residence in these emotions.  Our loved ones would never want us to lose our focus on what we are here to fulfill.  If we allow, we can get caught up in what has taken place and spend many years living in sadness and grief.  We can focus on what we do not have or we can focus on what we do have and be grateful for what we have shared.  It is a choice.  Attitude is everything.

SUN IN ARIES 2017, PART II, Forecast Uranus Conjunct the Sun

This is Part II of our look at Sun in Aries 2017.  Part I was posted on March 20, 2017.  www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/44443260-sun-in-aries-2017-part-i-sun-in-aries-characteristics

In the coming year (2017) Uranus is conjunct those with an Aries Sun between 17 degrees and the final degree of Aries.  The Uranus will also conjunct those with the Sun in early degrees of Taurus as well this year, but this will be discussed in our post for the Sun in Taurus coming up on or before April 20, 2017. 

With the conjunction to the Sun in the sign of Aries, Uranus has the push it needs to instigate change - hopefully constructive change.  The important focus for those with the Sun in these degrees is to take the necessary time to think and prepare for the plans that might be born during this conjunction.  Jumping without due reflection and research can lead to big mistakes and these decisions can lead to undesirable conclusions.  Take your time and plan things out, if given the opportunity.

There are great potentials with this combination--a new start, actions leading to great achievements on a personal level.  You can discover things about yourself that you never even knew existed before this time.  You can discover avenues of expression that not only put a new perspective on what you might want for yourself over the coming year, but also what might play an important role in your overall life conditions.  What you set in motion now can produce lasting results or quick impressionable changes that will bring freedom of expression.  You can now move away from anything that is restricting and find new instinctual actions that will pave the way for further growth in years to come. 

Sometimes the changes that are set in motion happen now because they are intended and you would not take these chances prior to this time.  There may very well be some unexpected twists and turns that take you down roads of life that you never knew existed.  Sometimes these new roads will surface out of the blue and you may be ill prepared.  The best approach is to be open to anything happening and to expect the unexpected.  Maintain a vision for the future and the outcome of your visions will be uncovered over time.

Of course there is the potential for a stumble during this conjunction but other factors would have to play a part in the process.  This would not happen on its own.  There must be a trigger.  Life can become quite unpredictable and extremely erratic behaviour has the potential to express itself.  You may be thrown into situations and life can carry you away on its wave of uncertainty.  If life does seem to dictate, recognize that over time these situations usually carry with them the potential for much needed change.  With this change comes growth from these experiences.  Once again expect the unexpected but go along for the ride.  Sometimes any attempt at trying to control the situation only results in delayed reactions and much harsher circumstances at a later date.  If your life has become dull and monotonous, you will likely experience some upheaval and excitement.

 

It is important to consider what actions you take and how these actions will affect others.  Because we are focusing on Aries, it is important to realize that personal needs must be taken care of first.  Life undoubtedly needs a shakeup and these apparent changes are all part of the process.  Hang on for the ride and realize that more often than not these changes are for the best.  Be sure to take care of yourself if you are experiencing a more than ideal ride during this aspect as your health can be a cause for concern if you allow yourself to become stressed.  Make sure you use the energies that these planets insist on bringing to the surface and also be careful while operating motor vehicles and power tools.  A little extra care can go a long way to avoid avoidable accidents.

Expect new things and people to enter your life at this time.  Be open to change and accept what you cannot change.  You are never at the mercy of life as you always have the potential to think things through and rationalize your life and control your attitude and your focus.  Remember, these changes or events are necessary.  They are brought on because life from a higher perspective has stagnated and the soul demands evolution.  Dear Aries as you know, you hold the reins.  Without worry, step forward into what might be the unknown and know that this is meant for you.

MAKE PEACE

You cannot find peace in your surroundings or from any interaction you may have with others.  The only way to find peace is to create peace and the only way to feel peace is to focus on your attitude towards peace.  You create peace by being peace, by living within the guidelines of what you define peace to be and then allowing those energies to seep into your outer world.

What are your expectations?  Do you expect to experience peace?

How do you find peace when your expectations are not in touch with what peace represents for you?  You know that you mold your reality over time by your belief structure.  If this is true, how can you possibly find peace when your expectations and focus are elsewhere?

You argue that your expectations are based on what you have experienced in life. 

How can you expect change if you base your expectations on what life has brought before this time?  How can you possibly expect anything different when this is where you choose to place your focus?

Make a conscious choice to start filtering out negative possibilities and focus.  You can switch this focus at any time, but you have to recognize that your thought patterns are your own, that they come from you and that you are the one with the control of where they are.  Call it ego interference, but as long as you identify with these thoughts, you make them your own. 

Pay attention and refocus your intentions.  It will take a little practice but realistically you can do it this moment and, if you believe, the change can happen right now, in this moment.  You do not have to wait until tomorrow to make that conscious change.  You can do it now.  When you notice that your focus is sneaking back into old habits, gently change its direction again to a positive one.

What are you waiting for?  The time is now.  Make a conscious choice to rule your own life and focus on what makes you happy.  Life is supposed to be filled with joy and optimism and this goes for everyone.  It is time.  Just do it!

SUN IN ARIES 2017, PART I, Sun in Aries Characteristics

The Sun will move into the sign of Aries on March 21 in 2017.  Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac and also rules the first house.  Aries is ruled by the planet Mars and  Mars is considered a war like planet in that it is not afraid to move forward with its objectives and is fearless once in action.  Mars is often the driving force behind personal achievement and ambition, along with Saturn although Saturn is more affiliated with ambitions linked to the profession.

Aries is a fire sign, associated with action and boldness.  Many Aries people have the ability to push through any blocks and will push ahead with their intentions regardless of intrusion or even the potential for defeat.  If they do fail, they are quite willing to cut their losses and rise up to another pursuit with as much vigor as their previous efforts.  Failure too many Arieans is just another opportunity to learn and begin again with new found potentials and goals.

These individuals can be rather impulsive and are usually the first to move forward in their objectives and also the first ones to finish what they set out to do.  There is little wasted time and there is no time like present to advance in whatever areas they deem appropriate.  They are very direct in their approach and will seldom pretend that they are doing something or making plans without actually following up on their plans.  Their goal is to achieve and get things moving.  They would really like it if they got the same response from others. 

Aries individuals feel comfortable in pursuing their objectives because they believe in themselves.  If by chance they fail in their goals, it will be because they did not plan well enough or moved forward without the proper resources.  They like a challenge and are willing to set things in motion even when others tell them that they are not ready.  Very little actually stands in their way except themselves.

Arieans often have a “me first” attitude and even when they are working towards the good of someone else, they seek control of the situation.  They are generally kind and compassionate people with the good of others at heart, but sometimes can be a little too blunt and aggressive in their pursuit. 

Aries is all about getting things done and clearing away that which no longer serve a purpose.  This is their pursuit; this is their purpose.

Part II of our focus on Aries was posted March 22, 2017.  Here is a link for your convenience.  http://www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/44443276-sun-in-aries-2017-part-ii-forecast-uranus-conjunct-the-sun
