TRANSITING NEPTUNE OPPOSITION NATAL MOON

If you have your natal Moon in the sign of Virgo, transiting Neptune could be in opposition to this position, depending on the degree of your Moon. 

Oppositions often involve other people and the Moon has a huge influence on your emotional makeup and your reaction to life’s events.  During this phase, you will have to be aware that you could be highly influenced by others, perhaps by deception or you may have a difficult time seeing through a vail of uncertainty.  Neptune tends to make life’s issues rather cloudy.

As mentioned, the Moon has a significant influence on our emotions.  During this phase, if you have this aspect in your chart, you may find that you are experiencing odd or unusual mood swings.  People seem to affect you even if you are not aware of it.  If you find that you moods suddenly shift for no apparent reason, check to see who is in your surroundings and what is transpiring in their life currently.  You may be taking on their energies on a subconscious level.

Your intuition may be somewhat off and although Neptune can inspire great intuitive insights and clairvoyant abilities, you would be wise to have someone who knows you well offer their insight before you make any sudden adjustments to your life.  If your world’s view is obscured and uncertain, understand that this could be due to the influence of Neptune and life should become more clear over time as this aspect moves away from being an influence in your chart.

Your inner feelings may not be too accurate during this aspect, and you may be reading things incorrectly.  Again, it is best to ask others for their opinion, but make sure that they are reliable and trustworthy.  If this energy is affecting a love relationship, you may find that you are having trouble seeing your mate with clarity, even if you feel you are.  You may be putting them on a pedestal and not seeing all their little flaws.  Eventually you may be disappointed to find out that they are only human after all.

The home and family may also need some attention as these are areas ruled by the Moon especially if the Moon is in the fourth house, if Neptune is currently transiting through the fourth house or if your natal Moon rules the fourth house. 

If the fifth house is highlighted, perhaps this energy may involve your children or your lover.  Your creativity might be heightened if the fifth is highlighted. 

If the sixth house is highlighted, take care of your health and make sure you are eating correctly and exercising appropriately.  Health can be affected because of what is now taking place in your life.  Mental confusion is often a off-shoot of this aspect and can create energies that make it hard to diagnose illnesses.  There would have to be other factors in your chart suggesting something similar with your health as well.  You need at least three indicators in your chart suggesting something similar to each other to have an actual influence in your life.

Make sure you are looking at life from a positive perspective, as Moon in Virgo has a tendency to over-analyze everything and tear apart even the best of conditions.  Always focus on the positive in life as you draw whatever you concentrate on into your life.  Although this may be a troublesome transit for some, you can learn a great deal about your intuitive insight and how the mind operates.  The greatest lessons come from the most challenging conditions.  Use the energies in positive ways to enhance your spiritual understanding and intuitive insight.

FORECASTING FOR THOSE WITH SUN IN CANCER, PART I

Jupiter square Sun

Transiting Jupiter in Libra square natal Sun in Cancer: (June-October 2017).

Those born with their Sun in the sign of Cancer (allowing for up to a ten degree orb of influence) will have Jupiter squaring their natal Sun.  Jupiter will be at 13 degrees Libra for the month of June, 2017 progressing forward until October when it passes into Scorpio on October 11, 2017. 

Jupiter is always a positive influence on the Sun regardless of which aspect it makes.  The only difference when you have an aspect of a square, opposition or quincunx is that you may have to work harder for your rewards.  With the trine and sextile as well as the conjunction aspects, often things seem to fall into place rather easily.  It is considered an opportunistic aspect although as Jupiter tends to exaggerate and expand all it touches, the only drawback would be over-optimism and over-doing.  So taking things with a measure of caution might help along the way.

You may feel very fortunate during this time although this can be exaggerated.  This transit does bring with it the opportunity for growth and opportunistic prospects as long as you your weigh things out and plan your objectives before jumping into the mix.  You may feel quite reassured about your set plans and if you take the measures necessary to guarantee your best possible outcome, you could do very well. 

Jupiter will provide a certain amount of luck and opportunity for success especially when it comes to goals in life and aspirations that you hold dear.  Check into the houses affected by this transit to see which areas of life will be under this influence.  If, for example, the tenth and seventh houses are activated, the potential for business dealings and occupational expansion are highlighted.  If the fourth and seventh houses are activated, it might deal with the home and family and important relationships such as with marriage. 

Review which houses are affected along with the house the Sun rules and also have a look at any aspects between Jupiter and the Sun in your birth chart.  Each of these will affect the overall conditions of what transpires during this period.  The rest of the chart will also have to be taken into consideration of course.  The energies of your chart have to agree with what Jupiter and the Sun are implying. If they disagree you will have to weigh out all things accordingly.

ENVISION A VIBRANT, HIGH ENERGY MOTHER EARTH

Is it not time to raise our joined consciousness and focus our attention in one positive direction? 

Our world and I specify “Our World” (both Mother earth and all of the inheritance sharing her bounty) appears to be under duress. 

We, individually and as a whole, can offer some assistance in the healing.  Our quest is to have as many people as possible (from all walks of life in as many countries as possible) to join together as one in the name of love and hope on Friday, July 28 at 8 p.m. no matter what time zone you live in.  Our thinking is that by not using any one specific time zone (which makes is hard for those that a specific time would be in the early hours of the morning) the flow of energy will continue for an extended period of time.

Please place this in your calendar.  We are asking for five (5) minutes of your time to create this collective effort. 

Would you please helping us with this effort either by sharing this post or creating one of your own to reach as many people as possible? 

Our focus is to live in a healthy, loving world for all living things and for each and every one of us to recognizing the important of this.  We would ask that everyone focus their attention not towards healing as this implies sickness.  We are not questioning whether this is true of not.  Our focus creates our reality and knowing this we want to focus on a health world not a faltering one. 

Imagine if everyone could focus or envision a vibrant, high energy Mother Earth and all living things that inhabit her are filled with love and peace.  Picture this already set in motion.  This will bring more of the same energies.

There is power in numbers.  We are spirit, living in the flesh with the light within us already.  We do not know what the full repercussions of our joint effort will be but beyond a doubt, it will be a move in a positive direction. 

Please join us Friday, July 28 at 8 p.m. your time and add you personal vibration to this effort.  Will you join us to add a little more love and light into our world?

TRANSITING MERCURY AND MARS IN CANCER

Although Mercury and Mars both move quite rapidly through the zodiac, since we are currently in the sign of Cancer, we wanted to touch on this conjunction particularly for those individuals with their Sun in Cancer.  This Conjunction began on June 23, 2017 and will be completed on July 6, 2017. 

The energies are very powerful from June 27 to June 30, 2017, when the planets form a tight conjunction between 14-19 degrees of Cancer.  Those that have their natal Sun conjunct these degrees and even those with a rising sign of Cancer near these degrees will be affected by the energies associated with transiting Mercury and Mars.

Mercury does little on its own, but with the energies of Mars, it has become activated.  Mars as well as the Sun often initiate action and can be used as timers in Astrology (along with Uranus).  Both the Sun and Mars are currently in the sign of Cancer as we write this post, indicating activities related to family along with activity on the home front.  Sometimes changes stemming from the family can be quite impulsive and even aggressive in action (Mars influence), coming out of nowhere and acting on a compulsion to move forward in a certain direction.

Mercury is the planet of the mind and is related to making plans, deciding on actions to take and influencing the potential for the signing of documents or implementing decision making.  Mars will have a tendency to make you push ahead in these avenues and decide on a course of action that you may have been putting off for some time now.  Since the Sun is involved, this could include life objectives and moving towards goals of significance.

If the Ascendant is involved some people move forward with plans of engagement, decide on a house to buy or refurnish, set plans in motion with respect to family planning or to buy items or sign documents of importance.  These actions often have effects that are far reaching and will change people’s lives significantly.  In most cases, these plans set in motion during this time are worth pursuing, but it is important to have a look at the rest of the chart to make sure it agrees with this potential.

If this conjunction affects the midheaven especially by conjunction, trine and sextile, these actions may involve your occupation, your status in life and may even affect your public reputation, often in a productive manner. 

If challenged by a square or opposition aspect, you may have to watch how you handle these energies and ensure that you do not jump into something that might not work out for you over the long haul.

Mars can act on its own, at times, and your input may not be required.  The best results, however, usually come when you use your own initiative to utilize the energies at hand.  Use these energies at your disposal to your advantage and insure that you take into consideration the effects your actions may have on your family and the home environment in the long haul.  Much may be at stake but the energies are set in motion for you to take advantage of them in a positive manner.

REJUVENATE OUR FOCUS THROUGH CONCENTRATED EFFORT

In order to maintain a positive journey, it can be necessary to realign our focus from time to time.  Sometimes we get a little lost in events and forget that our concentrated focus forms our reality.  We can easily get lost and become complacent.  Unintentionally, we go on automatic pilot and become absorbed in these events.  When the lessons get tough we can get lost in an attitude of why me and allow this less than ideal attitude to carry us away.  We can lose touch with past lessons and get swept away.  Thank goodness something jolts us back into the moment and remind us that our focus is actually exaggerating the lesson that we see as being so tough.

It is important to remember that we are human when we vary off course with our focus and gratitude.  Be gentle with yourself but the faster we recognize our negative focus, the faster we can re-centre ourselves and start to enjoy the ride.  In particular it is important to pay attention to what is important in our lives and what bring us happiness especially during the harder lessons.  We are always capable of shifting our focus to anything that helps us to experience happiness (it is a choice) and this choice eventually helps us decide to choose calm.

The object of our focus does not have to be anything colossal.  As a matter of fact, it is usually the small simple pleasures of life that help to uplift us.   As we are well aware, focusing on negativity only brews sadness, fear and anxiety.

If we have allowed ourselves to slip back into negativity for an extended time or if this is a new concept, it can certainly take some work as we identify with these energies.  It can be difficult to even recognize in the beginning, but with constant mental reminders and a gentle but concentrated effort, it does gets much easier.  Eventually a focus on negativity will become effortlessly recognizable.  Your vibration (energy) changes as you regain your positive momentum and life will feel as though it is lifting.  It will feel much lighter and easier.  It may take some time for these effects to be noticeable as much depends on how long we have been drawn into negative drama.  Little by little, we notice the subtle changes and our lives will begin to feel and look much more promising. 

Do not give in to the challenging conditions in life.  View them simply as lessons that lead us to great growth and development. 

We can never forget our focus.  By developing a positive focus, we take control of our journey and our attitude towards it.

MIDPOINTS IN ASTROLOGY

Midpoints in Astrology are considered one of the most successful astrological applications available in the study of Astrology and its predictive abilities.  A midpoint is the exact halfway point between two planets, or two significant points (Ascendant, Midheaven) or astrological bodies such as Chiron.  The Part Of Fortune can also be used, as well as the Vertex, or other bodies that you use to delineate an Astrology Chart. 

If you have Uranus at 11 degrees Cancer and the Moon at 28 degrees Scorpio, for example, then the midpoint would be 19 degrees Virgo.  If by chance you have a planet or significant point in the natal chart that is within a one degree orb of 19 degrees Virgo (18 to 20 degrees), that planet would have Uranus and Moon connotations mixed into the meaning of the planetary position.  If, for example, you have Mars in this position, Mars would be heavily influenced by Uranus and the Moon.

With transits and progressions, any planetary link to this position in our example would carry these overtones as well as the conjunction to Mars.  You can also use the semi-square, the square, the Sesquiquadrate and the opposition when delineating this configuration.  These aspects are all divisions of 45 degrees and will bring action, create events and make these energies noticeable to the individual (and also at times others that are involved in the equations).

Midpoints are very significant when deciphering potential events suggested by the natal midpoint scheme and the houses involved in the equation.   It is important to use an orb of no more than one degree when deciphering what potential situations may occur.  Midpoints are significant because they will provide an Astrologer with a clearer definition of what potential lies within the bounds of these configurations.

This not only applies to transits and progressions but also be applied in the natal chart with any midpoint of any combination.  The midpoint becomes a focal point when transits or progression join up to make contact with these sensitive points in the natal chart.  In most cases when the conjunction is activated between the two planets or significant points and the aspect is direct within one minute, you can certain expect that something will happen. 

The house location of the midpoint will provide you with the area of life affected and you also have to look at the houses the two bodies are located in the natal chart to provide a clearer picture.  Also take into consideration what each of the planets represent and how this area of life will be affected. 

As with our example earlier, the Moon, Uranus and Mars would suggest an emotional experience that would be sudden and unexpected.  It would have the potential for aggressive action or progressive movement in the areas of life indicated by the house placements.

Midpoints can pinpoint events although the more angles involved in the equation, the harder it is to delineate the specifics.  Using the midpoint between the two planets is often sufficed in providing additional information. 

Always pay particular attention to the midpoints between the Sun and the Moon, and the Ascendant and the Midheaven as these will have significance.
