SUN IN SCORPIO - OCTOBER 23, 2018



The Sun moves from the sign Libra into the sign Scorpio on October 23, 2018. 

Scorpio is a fixed, water sign suggesting that there is stability, structure and permanence along with emotional expression linked to this sign.  These people are determined, often inflexible and strong willed and can be quite stubborn.  Once they decide on a course of action, they will pursue it relentlessly rarely wavering or changing their position.

Scorpio individuals can be obstinate and will persistently pursue their objectives.  In general they have what it takes to see things through regardless of obstacles that seem to stand in their way.  They do not seem to tire and will relentlessly push themselves to the extreme.  They have commanding will-power and seem to be quiet purposeful. 

Do not stand in their way as their staying power is strong and relentless.  They can carry out tedious work, are rarely passive in their approach and are known to be steadfast and often seem to be powerful individuals. 

Scorpio individuals will stand by others, protect their innocence, if this is the case, and also fight against any wrongdoings with persistent and diligent effort.

It would be unwise to cross a Scorpio, as the less evolved Scorpion individuals will seek revenge and can be nothing short of a relentless enemy.  They have been known to be vindictive and jealous and can be a force to be reckoned with.  They can hold on to hurt indefinitely, waiting for the appropriate moment to get back at the individual who wronged them. 

On the other side, Scorpio individuals are seekers of inner truth, deeply introspective, transformative, regenerative and restorative.  They can be subject to change but not until they have gone through careful evaluation and they will take an in-depth approach to what they find. 

Scorpio has a reputation linked to sexual promiscuity.  Their sexual expression is quite natural and many Scorpions do feel comfortable when expressing their sexual nature.  The sexual expression and the sexual drive are actually linked more precisely to Mars.  Someone with their Mars in Scorpio may have a greater appetite for sexual activities, may be sensual and some may have difficulties containing their sexual hunger. 

Those with their Sun in Scorpio, however, may be somewhat promiscuous, particularly in their early life, when sexual exploration is enticing.  As they mature, they can be quite loyal to their partner and most will learn to curb their sexual appetite.  Much of course depends on what sign Mars is in within the natal chart, and in some cases, those with strong Taurus energy in their chart, will be the ones that have a romantic inclination or reflect strong sensual expressions.

Transiting Jupiter has been in the sign of Scorpio since October 2017.  Transiting Jupiter, at times since then has retrograded back and forth but always within Scorpio.  Jupiter moves into the sign of Sagittarius on November 9, 2018.  Those with their Sun in the sign of Scorpio will have had this conjunction occurring in their natal chart off and on in some cases for about one year (Much depends on the degree of their Scorpio Sun). 

The qualities of inner reflection, transformation and regeneration have occurred with these Scorpion people over the last year while Jupiter conjuncts this sign.  Conjunctions add intensity and tend to expand on the energies of the sign especially when connected to Jupiter.  Jupiter brings with it expansion, opportunities, good luck, philosophical understanding and growth during this period.  The house of the natal Sun will be reflective of the area of life that has gone through transformative experiences.  This may be deep and reflective or can be out in the open for all to see.  It can be internal or external.  The potential for something to surface and be acknowledged by others is more intense if it is connected to an angle, or at the beginning of a house cusp.

PROGRESSED JUPITER



Jupiter’s energies deal with fair play.  It reflects moral and religious involvements.  Jupiter brings expansion, good luck and optimistic potentials.  It is the planet of growth in material terms as well as expansion when it comes to life’s circumstances and how you can relate to this from a positive perspective.  When Jupiter makes positive aspects to other planets and points in the Zodiac, there are great opportunities for conditions to turn out favourably. 

The house position occupied by progressed Jupiter is where you will find opportunities to gain knowledge.  Jupiter also has to do with travel, courts of law and lawsuits.  In general, when Jupiter progresses through the chart, these or some of these areas of life may be highlighted, especially if Jupiter happens to be in the ninth house.  Jupiter also governs publishing, higher education and learning through experience.

Each house’s cusp advances one degree per year through progression.  Jupiter moves slower than the progressed houses and it is important to notice where Jupiter is in the natal chart and the houses it moves through during progression.  These few houses (can be only one and usually not more than three in a life time) will become areas of life that are affected by the progression of Jupiter in your chart.

You will also need to take into consideration any aspects that might come into play from the other progressed planets as well as transiting planets that make contacts during Jupiter’s slow movement through your specific house(s).

If Jupiter passes across your MC (Midheaven) the opportunities for growth in your profession has great potential especially if it is well aspected.  You will also have to look at the overall condition of Jupiter in your natal chart as this will determine how great the success will be.  A poorly aspected natal Jupiter does not promote in ways that a well aspected Jupiter does. 

When (and if) Jupiter passes over your MC, you may have opportunities for a promotion or may gain positive influence from people of higher positions.  Travel or relocation might be on the agenda during the year Jupiter sits directly on these angles.  I personally use an orb of 20 minutes for Jupiter as it approaches and 15 minutes when it separates in progressions. 

Progressed Jupiter on the ASC (ascendant) opens the door in very personal ways with less restrictions or obstacles for you.  It might indicate a new relationship or expansion in the family.  Prosperity and good luck seem to find their way to you.  Since Jupiter has to do with law suits and legalities, when Jupiter is on the Ascendant or Midheaven, the potential for legal things to go well are increased.

Jupiter on the DC (descendant) once again offers opportunities for marriage or opportunities to promote a new organization or affiliation with someone who can be of benefit to you in a business opportunity. 

Jupiter on the IC suggests changes within the home or with family members usually on a positive note.  It is a good time to buy real estate or your monetary values in these areas may increase.  However as mentioned previously, always take into consideration other transits and review what they are indicating.  Also a reminder to review the overall condition of Jupiter is in the birth chart to get the complete story.

OBSTACLES AND OBSTRUCTIONS



Our personal journey can be littered with what we consider challenging conditions and situations.  It is our obligation to our self to hand over our view of “complicated” and refocus on the “valuable lessons”.  It is much easier to accept lessons than to focus on hurdles and challenges.  We accept lessons, take the information learned and then can move forward with newly acquired knowledge.

When we are caught in “hurdles” and “walls” mentality, there will be times when we believe we have no way out and our options are limited at best.  There actually is no avoiding some of life’s conditions but our acceptance of the situation can somehow make these events easier.  Attitude plays such a significant part in how events affect us.  Our attitude may not change the event but it can alter the emotional outcome.  We can find comfort and acceptance which in turn fosters a gentle knowing that life is about to take an alternate route.

Some situations and losses are seldom easy but through acceptance and faith in the process, we adapt and adjust to these changes.  Our minds, when allowed to run unchecked, play games with us and fabricate all kinds of melodramatic outcomes that rarely manifest in their full expression.

Change is guaranteed in life.  The question is will we fight the changes and allow our minds to create havoc or will we accept change as it happens adjusting our focus on the benefits of each event as it takes place.  Some days the benefit is hard to see.  Our attitude can be our greatest companion or our most feared enemy. 

We are born fighters.  Even our entry into this existence is a hard fought battle.  But we overcome and make our way. 

We cannot lose sight of the potentials that lie ahead.  Stay strong and have faith in yourself and in life.  Things may not turn out how we “wished” them to but know that on some level we will emerge victorious……..always!

TRANSITING NEPTUNE QUINCUNX SUN



While Neptune transits the natal chart, it is important that we see things as they are, not as we wish them to be. 

Neptune tends to colour our view and often puts a haze or veil on situations.  The saying “Seeing through rose-colored glasses” fits this situation perfectly as, under this influence, we tend to put people or life’s conditions high on a pedestal. 

This can become disheartening when the veil is lifted and we finally see things as they actually are.  Much, of course, will depend on the aspects that transiting Neptune is making to other natal planets as well as the planets involved and the houses they are located in within the Astrology chart.  The house Neptune is transiting through will also be of utmost importance as this is reflective of the area of life which is involved along with the Sun’s placement by house position with our example aspect today of transiting Neptune Quincunx (150 degrees) the natal Sun.

The Sun has to do with life goals and ambitions and our ability to succeed in life.  It helps us find our path in life, controls our destiny, deals with our vitality and sometimes refers to the father or important masculine people in our life. 

When Neptune is in transit to our Sun by quincunx, also known as inconjunct, it often speaks of a time when we need to or should make some alterations or adjustments to our plans.  Neptune can make us a little dreamy about what it is we want to manifest in our life.  The quincunx aspect has also been linked to health concerns but there has to be other factors pointing in the same direction in the chart for this to have any influence.

Sometimes these adjustments are rather subtle in nature, and we do not have to do too much in order to get on the real track.  Other times, this is not the case.  We may have been fooling ourselves for some time. This can suggest that it is time for a reality check although at other times we can get inspirational assistance once we begin to make alterations and accept what is in front of us.  We might want to go to outside sources for further guidance on what it is we are doing or what it is we believe is happening.

Much will depend on the house transiting Neptune is moving through.  Neptune moves slowly and will spend many years in one house.  This area of life will become activated when it transits other natal positions.  We will also need to see where natal Neptune is located in the chart as this provides further information as to what areas of life are involved and how things might unfold.  The natal aspects to Neptune will also provide information that might assist with understanding what is taking place.

If transiting Neptune makes favorable aspects to other natal positions, this can be a time of great revelation and intuitive insight.  The psychic realms can become more intriguing, and you should pursue these expressions and delve deeper to get an understanding of what this might mean for you.  Neptune is a mystical planet and offers insight into the psychic realm. 

You can allow an orb of influence of 5-7 degrees approaching and as it nears exactitude, the energies will strengthen.  The energies begin to fade as Neptune passes out of orb after being direct by 2 degrees of separation.  If Neptune moves into retrograde during this timeframe, it can have several passes over the same degree and be quite influential.  The first exact pass however, is usually the most powerful.

REFLECTIONS OF LOVE AND AFFECTION



We are all very different and the way we express our love can vary immensely.  Some express love and affection through the work they carry out for others.  Some are verbal and best express their love through words.  Others are physical and show their expressions of love through physical contact. 

Those that express their love though actions take on duties to show their love and affection they have for those that benefit from our actions.  These chores are not responsibilities or obligations.  When we feel obliged to another people’s needs, we are servicing what they require and this is not necessarily an expression of love. 

If our actions come from the heart then such actions will not feel as though they are a burden to carry.  Wanting to help someone through compassion because we feel their struggles or wanting to help them due to our love for them can help make the actions feel so light.  This not only helps those that we love, it also fills us with joy (our love keeps giving).  There is a difference between helping someone however and being expected to carry out these chores or actions.

Love is unconditional no matter if given to our partner, our children, our grandchildren, our siblings, our close friends and/or even a stranger.  Our expression of love flows freely and there is no need to keep score.  Our actions are simply a natural response to what our heart feels.

Recognising our partner’s form of expression is of utmost importance.  However, showing our love through all expressions, although uncomfortable for some, is ultimately an all round full expression of our love that everyone can understand.

TRANSITING JUPITER CONJUNCT MERCURY



When transiting Jupiter is in retrograde, its energies are not as responsive as when they are when Jupiter is moving in direct motion.  In retrograde, Jupiter has similar qualities as that of Saturn and will often deny the positive, good luck and optimistic approach usually associated with its energies.  Its energies are harnessed when retrograde and although we can still achieve and accomplish, it often takes great effort to make things happen.  The good fortune that often accompanies Jupiter is not operating at its maximum capacity to say the least.

When in direct motion Jupiter’s positive energies are released and quite often good luck and abundance follow a close aspect by Jupiter, although hard work may still be required particularly if in aspect to Saturn.  The other planets regardless of aspect offer energies connected to potential rewards and opportunities.

When Jupiter makes a conjunction to Mercury, (today’s topic), the energies of Mercury are expanded and the mind seems to work well and ideas can manifest that often result in optimistic results.  However you will have to watch for becoming overly expansive with your ideas and expecting too much or investing in what you might think is a good thing.  It might not be as grand as you think it might be under these energies.  Overconfidence is often part of the thinking process when Jupiter is involved.

Your mind might wander into what others might refer to as the higher dimensions and religious doctrines.  Spiritual practice may be heightened during a close encounter between Mercury and Jupiter.  You may also find yourself thinking about long distance travel and if you should happen to take a trip, although you should be careful not to overextend yourself financially, you may learn much from these travels.  Foreigners might provide you with insight that you may not have otherwise been taught or have been fortunate enough to experience.

Jupiter is a very promising and expansive energy and does often suggest opportunities to move forward in your life’s journey.  Always take into consideration whether Jupiter is being stagnated by its retrograde motion or allowed expression due to its expansive energies releasing in direct motion.  Check to see which house transiting Jupiter is moving through as this will provide you with the area of life involved in the equation.  Also have a look at the natal conditions as well as its natal house position as this will give you more information. 

A poorly aspected natal Jupiter does not operate as well as a well aspected natal Jupiter although the potential for growth is still great regardless of the nature of the aspects.  You just may have to work a little harder to make things happen.
