PROGRESSED SUN CONJUNCT THE NATAL ASCENDANT

The Sun, whether it is the natal or progressed Sun, speaks of your vitality, energy and your ability to recuperate.  It also deals of the ego and your ambitions.  It governs the success you are able to attain in life.  The Sun also is representative of the Father and other male authority figures prominent in your life.

The progressed Sun moves one degree per year and over a period of your lifetime will not move too far from its original position at birth.  It will make semi-sextile to the natal Sun at 30, the semi-square at 45 and the sextile at 60.  For those lucky enough to live into their nineties, they will experience the square at age 90.  It will also make many aspects throughout your lifetime to other planetary placements in the birth chart, including the Ascendant.  In order for it to reach the Ascendant, the natal Sun must be within 90 degrees of the Ascendant (11^th -12^th house) at birth to make any connections to this very significant placement.

The effects of the Progressed Sun on your Ascendant would be a three year aspect and the middle year would be the most significant as that would be when it becomes direct (0 degrees in separation to this placement).  This conjunction can produce both challenging conditions and easy reinforcing life conditions that will aid you in moving forward.  This is due partly to the transits that will make contact to this placement over the suggested period of time.

When a conjunction occurs, there are often potential opportunities for advancement in your profession.  At times people in authority will aid you (if you experience this aspect) in achieving your goals and will become a motivating factor.  In some cases these opportunities may come to the father.  In a woman’s chart, this is often a time of marriage or engagement.  This is an opportune time for meeting a suitable partner, especially if the Vertex is involved or Venus and Jupiter.  The health is usually good when the conjunction has easy aspects from transits affecting it.  One goal that you would have if you experience this aspect could be to achieve success.

If, however, this conjunction is receiving challenging aspects from other planets in transit, especially outer planets, the chances for success are greatly diminished or you may have to work very hard in order to achieve the same level of success that the easy flow aspects would create.   Much of what transforms depends on which planet is transiting the conjunction and its house placement as well as its house placement in the natal chart.  You can also look to the house it rules in the natal chart to get more information as to how events might unfold and what areas of life will be involved. 

There may also some health difficulties although you would have to look at the overall condition of the natal Ascendant and Sun as well as any planets in the twelfth house (if poorly aspected) as this is known as the house of ingrained health issues.

When the progressed Sun advances towards the Ascendant you will feel a draw to make changes to your life that would enhance your world.  Some will make changes to their appearance while some become involved in exercise routines that enhance the body.  Paying close attention to your well-being is always recommended and especially so when this conjunction is (again if you were born with the Sun in the 11^th or 12^th house) about to take hold in your life.

THE MIRACLE OF LIFE

Just the fact that we are here today is a miracle. 

Is it by chance that we walk this road of life? 

Some individuals question if this that we call “life” is actually a dream.  In reality, we really do not know the answer.  We know very little in the grand scheme of things.  Does it really matter though?

Again, I say, this whole process of life is miraculous.  Each day is filled with beauty and wonder.  Each person we share this existence with is a blessing. 

Do you live your life in full appreciation of all the things that happen?  Can you find joy in even the smallest of things? 

Do you share your life with those that matter?

No one else sees through your eyes and no one else experiences through your experiences.  Your life is uniquely yours. 

It IS a beautiful life.  Live it to the fullest; feel it to its fullest.  What a precious moment.

THE T-SQUARE IN ASTROLOGY

The T-Square is an astrological configuration involving two or more planets in opposition (180 degrees) with one another and both making a square (90 degrees) to a third planet.  This configuration can also be created in part by angles found within the chart.  All three planets and/or angles should be within the same mode (Fixed, Mutable or Cardinal).  The aspects creating the T-Square should not have an orb any greater than 10 degrees and the closer the angles are to exact, the stronger the influence of this configuration.   Three degrees or less is considered a tight orb.  The T-Square is considered less influential if the planets are in different modes, or if one of the points creating the T-Square involved is an angle (such as the Ascendant or Midheaven).

The T-Square, although considered a challenging aspect, does provide its recipient with motivation.  Through applied efforts, the energies from this aspect will often produce viable results and a general ability to achieve in life.  As this configuration has three planets creating it, when the energies are not expressed in their proper function, the planets becomes out of balance, leaning too much on one of the three directions.  The area of life where the focal planet (which is the planet receiving the square portion of the T-Square) is found in the chart is often too accentuated and those with this aspect in their chart tend to put all the weight on the opposite area of life of where the “square” planet is found. 

In other words, if the focal planet (the one receiving the two squares) is in the third house, we tend to focus our attention on the area of life represented by the ninth house.  The area of life, described by the focal planet, its sign and also its house position can either be used creatively or become a source of frustration.  Using the energies of the focal planet as they are intended to be use is highly suggested.

The T-Square needs activity in order to function well.  As a result, you have to use the energies of the focal planet in a creative manner.  A T-Square used creatively is often found in the charts of very prosperous and/or up and coming individuals.  It is often noted that the focal planet is the most dominant planet in the chart and must be utilized in a favourable manner in order for results to be achieved.  If not used properly, the energies of the focal planet can become a “thorn in the person’s side” and often create conflict and struggle in this person’s life.

It is suggested that the area (house) opposite the focal planet needs to be developed in some way so that balance is created.  Individuals with a Cardinal T-Square have a tendency to bulldoze their way through any type of crisis in their personal lives.  These individuals need to find ways to balance and understand the needs of other people along with their own needs.  They need to understand that other people have their own perspectives and agenda and are also capable of deciding which way they may wish to move and of their own accord.  The Cardinal T-Square operates in a similar fashion to the energies of the sign Aries.

People with a Fixed T-Square aspect operate similar to the energies of the sign of Taurus and have strong willpower and determination to succeed.  They build up their strength over a period of time or concentrated thought and then plunge into action.  They often need to find ways to release their energy constructively and also develop sensitivity towards other people’s needs.

Those with a Mutable T-Square have similar qualities of Gemini and are adaptable, changeable, versatile and restless.  These individuals are influenced greatly by those around them.  They will need to find balance in the way that they rely on others and understand that they can rely on themselves much more than they give themselves credit for.  These individuals also need to stay the course in one direction rather than changing their minds midway and moving on to something new.

CHOICE OF FRIENDS

As we spend time with others, over time, they pick up certain characteristics from us and we pick up characteristics from them. 

Are we particular with the characteristics we take on?

It is said that we are a collection of traits from each and every person that has had an influence in our lives.  If this is the case, is it not then important to choose our friends and those that we associate with wisely (as the old saying goes)?

The obvious influential people in our lives are those that we choose to spend our lives with as partners. 

As children, our parents have great influence on us.  Some children look forward to growing up just as their parents and other children vow that they will never take on the characteristics they saw in their parents.  Either way, as children, we are influenced. 

As we grow and mature, we welcome more and more individuals into our lives.  In our informative years, we are highly influenced by those around us and once we are independent mature adults we begin to realize that taking on characteristics of others can be a choice.  There is still an influence but we realize we can put filters in place. 

Perhaps this is how we get to know ourselves.  Perhaps once we want filters, we take the time to examine ourselves and we recognize the characteristics we have picked up along our journey.  This begs the question, “Who, then, are we?”

Who is our inner self…….that inner core……that quiet voice within?  Maybe this is a question for another post?

MARS RULER OF ARIES

The Sun went into the sign of Aries on March 21 2018 and since Mars is the ruler of this sign, we thought we would touch on Mars’ energies and give a brief explanation of the actions it can initiate as it transits through the Zodiac. 

Mars is the planet connected to vigorous and energetic action and will control activity in your life when stimulated through transit or when it is the transiting planet activating an angle or planet in the birth chart.  Mars is the activated force that helps us deal with aggression or pressures in life.  The sign placement of your natal Mars will define how this energy is forwarded and used in life.  The house placement of Mars will define the area of life that your energies are directed towards.

Mars can be forceful and dynamic in its action.  It can be the energy that provokes arguments and fights.  Mars’ energies are often active in times of accidents and violence.  Mars is linked to the masculine figures in your life and Mars, among others things, represents young men.  It is powerfully connected to our sex drive but much will depend on the sign Mars is in within the birth chart. 

Mars in Scorpio, for example, can suggest a powerful sexual push as with Aries as well, although Mars in Aries may be a little more self-concerned and address the area of sex quite differently than Mars in Scorpio.  Mars always needs an outlet and without proper release on some level, the energies it represents can become quite provoked or feel stifled.

Mars is also strongly connected to our wants and need to succeed.  Along with our Sun, Mars supplies us with the energy needed in order to achieve in life.  Mars is connected to beginnings and initiations and those individuals with a strong Mars placement in their charts will be the first to act in life, sometimes impulsively or without forethought. 

If, for example, Mars is in the sign Pisces this could suggest that the individual is seeking spiritual enlightenment.  If poorly aspected in the Chart, it could mean that this person seeks to actively avoid challenging conditions, or could acts out in submissive ways.  Much will depend on the overall condition of Mars and as suggested earlier which house it is located in.

When Mars is transiting and makes an aspect to a planet or angle in the natal chart, its energies are usually fleeting (perhaps lasting about one week).  The exact day, however, that it conjuncts a planet or angle can be used as a timing device if other factors in the chart are pointing in a similar direction.  Mars and Uranus are used as timing tools when outer transits are activated points and planets in a birth chart.  If Mars is making a connection in the birth chart and goes retrograde, its energies will last longer.  In general, however, Mars’ energies will activate 5 to 7 degrees approaching a planet or angle.  Its energies will begin to fade out about 2 degrees separating. 

When Mars transits a house, it can activate this area of life creating new beginnings and fresh starts.  At times, failure or endings of some sorts or another is what is required to provoke productive action and open the door to a new beginning.
