OUR ENERGY/LIGHT

Do you recognize and enjoy the oneness with all? 

We are all part of the whole and the whole is one and indivisible.  Although we feel separate from others and consider ourselves to be our own person, we jell together as one and our energies are all interconnected.  What we feel and do affects every “energetic” thing that is.  What a responsibility.

We each walk a slightly different material and lesson path.  Some individuals seem light years off our personal course yet everything that we experience is shared with the masses.  When we attack others, we attach everyone, including ourselves.  When we love, we share this love with all things. 

Many believe that their influence is insignificant; however, this is not the case.  As mentioned, our energy affects all other energy.  How does it feel when you walk into a room and two people have been arguing but they are silent when you entered that room?  We have all heard it said, “You could cut the air with a knife” but how can you feel this if you are not affected by these two individual’s energy?  On the other side of the coin, how can the energy within a room immediately skyrocket when one individual enters it?  You can feel the energy level rise with some people when they join us.  These are simple examples of how one individual’s energy can affect us.  We also affect those that we do not come in contact with.  Our personal energy moves beyond the confines of the body and mind.

We have come to this material existence to live our lives and share our experiences with others.  We have come in physical form to experience the physical.  Our spiritual self (energetic state) is always evolving and expanding which is not visible on the earthly plain yet in reality there are no boundaries.

Do not get overly hung up on mistakes along the way, as we are only attached by a thread to the physical.  To err is human.  Be honoured to be a part of this expression and live your part by being who you truly are.

We have expanded to evolve and understand and yet we are striving to move beyond this physical state to return to our true energy state.  We are one with all energy, one with love, one with Source.

LUNAR ECLIPSE JANUARY 31, 2018

A blue moon is the second Full Moon experienced within a single calendar month.  From the expression “Once in a blue moon”, it is obvious that it does not occur very frequently.  It actually happens once in every 2.7 years.  This morning, January 31, 2018, was the peak of the full Leo Moon.

With this blue moon, we also experienced a Lunar Eclipse.  The Leo Full Moon was at 11 degrees 37 minutes.  Lunar Eclipses are powerful energies and force us to pay attention to the areas of life that are being highlighted through the energies of the house it is found in within our personal Astrology chart.  Eclipse’s energies are asking for change and its apparent path often can cause our emotions to flair. 

The Moon in Leo is rather dynamic in its expression and may push us to be more outspoken than normal and somewhat fearless especially when connected to family and relationships of significance.  We may find it hard to keep our mouths shut when facing adversity.  We can be somewhat outspoken when it comes to expressing our attitude towards those that may need our help or advice. 

We may have a tough love approach although because of the close conjunction with Ceres, there is a strong need to nurture and take care of anyone that needs our help.  The Moon and Ceres are similar in these energies, and Leo may be a little too controlling although anything offered by Leo this will come from the heart.

As this is a Full Moon, the Sun and Moon are in opposition to each other.  At times there can be a challenge between what we do in our working environment and how we balance and provide nurturing within the framework of our family.  There is a pull in both directions and often one lacks because of the focus we have on the other.  We will want to do our best within both areas of life, but one demands more of our time although both need our attention. 

This is also the time to harvest what we sowed during the New Moon in Leo some 6 months ago.  If we began a project or focus under the influence of the Leo New Moon, this may be the time when we review our “garden’s growth” from that planting period and finalize the harvest.  Alternatively, if we have fallen short in nurturing the plants of our plans, now may be the time to either tend your goals needs or till the soil and start over.  Sometimes we just need to cut our losses and walk away.

Eclipses can be known as the bearer of news of importance.  This can touch many areas of life.  Again, as mentioned, we need to look at the house the eclipse occurs in within our personal Astrology chart.  If it is transiting the 7^th or 5^th house it would speak in terms of relationships, in the 6^th or 10^th house in terms of work, the home, and family if in the 4^th ,  health if in the 6 or 12 or if connection to our ascendant (rising sign).  If in the sixth, it may also speak of dedication to service, pets, health and hygiene.  If it is the twelfth, it may also speak of places of confinement such as hospitals, jails and hidden matters as well as mystical unfolding.  The finances may be affected if the 2^nd or 8^th houses are involved.  One thing is for sure, the energies of an eclipse are to push us towards our goals and often create a turning point in our lives.

A further effect on these energies would come from other planets within orb (up to 5 degrees) aspecting this position.  You can expect challenging conditions if Mars, Saturn and sometimes Uranus and Pluto are involved.  You can expect things to work in your favour if the Sun, Jupiter and Venus are aspecting this placement.  Remember these planets and important angles (Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven and Imum Coeli) are natal positions and not transits, although transit can also have an effect.  The transits can have an effect but it must be linked to the natal potential before their influence has much affect.

Enjoy the energies!

EMOTIONAL DISRUPTION

Sometimes the best laid plans will go awry and because we do not always travel the path we prefer, we allow our reactions to be emotionally intense. This allowance can be tough on us and if we continue to battle back, we feel as though they will never end. This feeling and thought structure can leave us quite depleted and without direction. This is a temporary state of affairs, however, and will also pass if we allow ourselves to let go and change our attitude. 

Nothing remains the same in life. Shifts of consciousness and shifts in circumstance often run hand in hand.

Sometimes we have to let go of where we have been and take new paths that can be quite foreign to us. This can be frightening but at the same time very exciting. 

Take the bull by the horns and move forward. Sometimes we need a little push from life or from others and other times we take those first steps on our own. The latter choice is usually the easiest in the long run. It is usually best not to wait for others to push us to make change. 

Each one of us has the capabilities to move ahead, but need to recognize this fact and to face our fears. We may feel at the mercy of life, but this is just a belief. 

Emotional disruptions more often than not signify the need for change, and we must allow ourselves that freedom to grow and expand. No place of disruption is okay. We do not have to stay within any type of energy of confinement or with an energy that feels anything less than fulfilling. 

Do not wait for life to dictate that change must take place. It is usually much more pleasant and less disruptive if we take those steps ourselves. 

This IS your life! Live it to the best of your abilities. Never sell yourself short.

MINI FORECAST FOR SUN IN AQUARIUS Part II

We have already discussed the impact from transiting Mars and transiting Jupiter on those with their Sun in Aquarius on January 26, 2018.  Now we will provide a little more information for those with their Sun in Aquarius as well as those with their rising sign in Aquarius.

Uranus, consistently since March of 2011, has been in sextile with those who have their Sun in Aquarius.  Those with their Sun sign in the early degrees will have completed this sextile now.  Those Aquarian with their Sun in the later degrees will have it in effect until May of 2018.  Uranus will then moves into Taurus and will be squaring those individuals with their Sun in the early degrees of Aquarius.  You can allow an orb of influence of 5 to 7 degrees approaching and 2 to 3 degrees separating (once it is past) your Sun sign degree.

There is a difference of energies between those with their Sun in Aquarius and those with their rising sign in Aquarius.  Aquarius rising will also have these energies in effect but the energies will affect these individuals’ life’s expression, their relationships, their finances and in some cases their health.  Much will depend on other aspects to this position as well as aspects within the natal chart. 

For those people with their Sun in Aquarius, Uranus sextile will have influences with life’s goals and objectives, personal pursuits which may not be evident to those outside of close friends’ circle and family.  These energies can also have an effect on the health of the body.  Generally, the sextile offers up good health unless of course there are other factors in the chart identifying something to the contrary.

Uranus is the instigator for change in our lives.  It is constantly reaching for something, but usually only when things have gone stale or change is a requirement of the individual’s personal advancement.  Uranus can be rather abrupt in its expression and often creates sudden and unexpected events to unfold.  Along with this sudden change, quite often it will be experienced with a dynamic release.

This is a time when these individuals can change direction and move away from how things were and move towards new and often exciting experiences because of opportunities showing up in your life.  Sometimes these things can come out of nowhere and other times you have to initiate the action.  It is best to move ahead with these matters when they present themselves to you as the timing is ripe for new experiences and with the potential for growth.  Their self-expression may now be enhanced.  There is more freedom in doing this than may have been present before, although Aquarius is often freedom seeking and self-expression, under most conditions, is not an issue.

There may be more opportunities for advancement in the career.  If they have become complacent with their goals in life but wish to move forward, now is the time to step up.  Sextiles often speak of opportunities to come to life and although they may think that perhaps the higher forces are directing these things into their life, Aquarius individuals may still have to pursue what has been brought to their attention.  This is a freedom aspect and Aquarians are best to take advantage of the energies at hand.

MINI FORECAST FOR THOSE WITH SUN IN AQUARIUS (Part one)

Before we go into detail with this mini forecast, it should be understood that this is far from a full picture of how the transits and progressions are lining up with anyone with their sun in Aquarius and your full natal chart.  This post is a very general summary for all individuals with their Sun in Aquarius.  Other combinations within the Astrology chart can and will dilute this information or can actually enhance it. 

We will be touching on three aspects.  Two of these aspects will only involve those with their Sun in Aquarius between 15 or 16 degrees to 29 degrees (so those born in the second half of the sign). 

The first aspect we will discuss, Transiting Mars, will affect all individuals with Sun in Aquarius at some point in the transit, which will end on March 17, 2018.

Mars is currently in the sign of Sagittarius, often suggesting a push towards higher learning, philosophical pursuits, religious inclination and optimistic life approaches.  Mars is aggressive in its pursuit and when in the fire sign of Sagittarius cam willfully insist on pursuing whatever this path maybe that any Aquarian is choosing to follow at this point in time.

When in sextile (a 60 degree aspect), the energies are opportunistic and very favourable.  When involving the Sun, it may be time to advance the approach with a little more vigor and rest assured unless there are other factors in the chart offsetting this placement, the opportunities for advancement are much more influential than they would any other time.  This is a favourable aspect if this Aquarian individual chooses to pursue it. 

The house the natal Sun is in and the house being transited by Mars will be the areas of life that are affected.  The energy and drive will be directed into the house that the Sun is residing in.  Also have a look at where the Aquarian’s natal Mars is located as this will give them hints as to how the energies might play out.  Some of their goals especially those they have had in the back of their mind have potential for growth at this time. 

Jupiter currently (January 2018) is in the sign of Scorpio.  Because Scorpio is three signs away from the sign Aquarius, this angle between Jupiter and the Sun is a square.  This square indicates some challenging conditions along with the favourable potential brought on by the Mars aspect previously mentioned.  In most cases a square (90 degree aspect) indicates some strife, some challenge, as well as some obstacles to overcome.  However, Jupiter, known as the most favourable planet in the horoscope, nearly always offers perks in some form or another.  The energy may suggest some challenging conditions along the way in reaching these goals, but Jupiter also suggests that if the Aquarian follows their instincts and does this in through proper channels and hard work, the potential for achievement is enhanced.  Jupiter insists that things are done on the up and up.  Some struggles along the way can be anticipated but the final outcome looks promising.

Aquarians will be affected by this transit between Jupiter and the Sun if their Sun is between 8 and 29 degrees in Aquarius.  Jupiter will go into retrograde on March 9.  It will be at 23 degrees (so it will not affect those with their Sun in the very early degrees as mentioned as transits have a range of influence of about 5 to 7 degrees when approaching a planet or an angle in the birth chart and about 2 to 3 degrees while separating from the planet or angle).  While Jupiter is in its retrograde cycle, its energies are somewhat harnessed.  Jupiter will stay in retrograde from March 9 until July 10, 2018.  During this retrograde period, it will move from 23 degrees back to 13 degrees so if you have your Sun in these degrees it will pass over that particular degree and then pass over it once again when it goes direct.  The energies are enhanced when Jupiter passes close to the degree of your Sun and then will be at its peak when it directly (same degree) hits your Sun. 

Jupiter will remain in Scorpio until November 9, 2018, when it moves into Sagittarius.

We will continue our mini forecast for Aquarius on Monday, January 29.

ARE THESE TROUBLING TIMES?

Take a hard look around you.  Did you judged the situation of the world at large? 

It is far too easy to assume that these are troubling times.  The media focuses on negativity and this leads us to believe that our world is in a state of chaos.  It is our own personal responsibility to strive to bring peace back to our own little corner of the world.  This will create a ripple effect.

Did you know according to many studies, in the United States of America for example, that violent crime rates are actually down significantly?  You would not realize this from any news broadcast that you watch.  Survival is a primal response.  The news broadcasters know that violence converts into viewers.  It is not by co-incidence that there are very few “feel good” reports in the news.

That being said, there is always room for improvement.  The time is always ripe for positive intervention. Is it not time for those of us who are on this journey together to play our part in the healing process for individuals, for Mother Nature, for the world as a whole? 

We cannot sit back and wait for others to nurture.  It is essential to play a positive role.

We are rich with guides and most importantly, the guide within is most reliable as it/we are connected to source.  Go within and enjoy the wealth.  More often than not we look for answers outside of self, forgetting that our higher self in connected to all that is.  As a result, how we choose and whatever we choose to offer is perfect and will always be timely. 

We can do our little part and in so doing, we are stimulating others to do their part.  A small action from you will create a mighty wave further down the river of life. 

Belief in yourself can bring about ground-breaking healing and change to everyone. 

Help yourself and in turn you are helping others.
