MINI FORECAST 2019 - SUN IN VIRGO, (Part II)



We continue our mini forecast for Sun in Virgo.  Part I was posted on August 23, 2019. 

Today, we will look at the combination of transiting Pluto and transiting Saturn which are making a wide conjunction in September and October and then tightening up into the fall and early winter of 2019. 

In January, they make an exact conjunction with one another at 22/23 degrees of Capricorn and this will be when the combined energies will be at their strongest, although many Astrologer including me understand that Saturn is at its strongest at 2 degrees past direct (because of Saturn’s delayed action).  Using this past degree influence, the strongest impact will then be in early February.

There will be much controversy regarding these two planets linked together which will be discussed in full detail at a closer date.  It should be noted that this combination will affect anyone who has natal planets and points close to 22/23 degrees but should have a profound effect on many of us.

This conjunction when in relation to those with their Sun in Virgo and in and around these degrees will note that they will be experiencing a trine to their Sun position.  The Sun has to do with our goals and aspirations and also connects with our life passage as well as our inner most selves.  Pluto and Saturn together can be quite tumultuous and can easily indicate some struggles with power and transformations taking place due to these initial stages of evolution.  The evolution in question on a personal basis would encapsulate our life’s path and the goals we set for ourselves.

Trines imply easy flow and opportunities in obtaining benefits and are considered a viable and positive influence although these energies may not be easy to handle.  The outcome over time should be favourable if the other planets in the birth chart agree.  It would be wise to review all the details of what it is that you may be trying to accomplish.  Being honest and forthright if others are involved would be the best approach; any underhanded approach may prove to be futile. 

Quite often Pluto speaks of an ending of sorts allowing the entry for what would be considered new growth of relevance which points us in the right direction.  Situations that have outgrown their usefulness may be subjected to critical analysis and then laid to rest or at the very least they would have to be reformulated in such a way that they would fit the path we are now evoking. 

Saturn tends to hold on to what is known and what feels safe and does not like change of direction.  It wants us to feel safe and secure and if after careful study decides to move in a different direction, it often rewards us with more stability and security that might otherwise not have been available prior to these changes.

The foundation may be starting to formulate, and we will have to make some adjustments to that which we are creating, but most often what we are putting in place now carries with it longevity and productivity that will enhance our continued growth.  Use the energies wisely and don’t miss any steps as insisted by Saturn.

2019 MINI FORECAST - SUN IN VIRGO


(Part one)

Transiting Neptune has been between 14-18 degrees of Pisces all of 2019.  Those with their Sun sign in Virgo in and around these degrees will be having or have had the opposition from Neptune to their Sun.

Oppositions often suggest that there is an influence from others during this passage of Neptune to the Sun.  Depending on what houses are involved in you Astrology chart, others may be influencing your relationships especially with the marriage partner (7th), your occupation and goals in life (MC/10th house) or within the working environment and with co-workers (6th) security matters or finances (2nd house) the mystical side of life or occult matters (12th and 8th) and the list goes on.

When Neptune is making an impact in your life quite often there is a veil of uncertainty or cloudiness to life’s situations.  Things are unclear and unreliable, and the information coming through may be somewhat vague in its expression.  It is often wise to utilize the input of others during Neptune’s opposition to your sun; however make sure that you can trust these people, as in some cases some may be trying to misinform you as well.

You may have problems seeing people for who they are or your goals in life could be obscured.  Life’s direction seems unclear or vague under this influence and it is often best to wait until the cloudiness has dissipated somewhat.  If a relationship is involved, you may put the individual on a pedestal and later be disappointed when you get the real picture of them.

The Sun sometimes points towards the father or the more dominant parent, and you may not be seeing things clearly or you may have the wrong impression regarding him. 

Your insight under this aspect is often heightened and your intuitive perception may be clearer than normal, as long as you are not using your imagination.  The unconscious may provide you with information pertaining to these energies at hand and although things may be somewhat vague you may get some “guided” insight to help you along.

At times after the aspect begins to fade (due to the orb of influence separating as well as clearer insight), you may also experience inspirational activity related to the matters connected to the houses which are being highlighted in your personal chart.  Make sure you also look into the house placement and aspects to natal Neptune in your Astrology chart to get a better understanding of what areas of life are being affected.

We will continue our mini forecast on August 26, 2019.

FORMULATING YOUR TRUE EXPRESSION



It is not about building personality, although this is often a by-product; it is about finding the appropriate outlet for self-expression.  We build our character as life passes and we are constantly building our own personal approach to life through life experiences.  These experiences do seem to create some personal identification, but this identification is also subject to change because of life’s constant stimuli through events. So it this actually your personal identity? 

Our personal vibration varies in different degrees throughout life’s lessons and growth.  As we develop as an individual, we gain insight, slowly fostering our personal expression.  We are building earthly character and challenging any limiting conditions as we mature into ourselves.  As a result, we go through periods of intense transformation.  These transformations can sometimes require us to change our direction completely.

As we progress, we get reminders of who we were and glimpses of who we are becoming on this earthly plain.  It is all a developing story and the real “us” slowly, continually emerges.  This true person that we allowing to come forth slowly surfaces although the connection has always been there.  We just did not see it.  Who we are is the most natural expression of self.  In reality, therefore, we do not have to look very far to find ourselves.

The ultimate person to be is the “real” you and anything that resides outside of that true personality will be released or challenged.  Any part of us that we do not agree with or do not resonate with is not part of who we truly are.  Anything that does not feel real or comfortable, we can release simply by not identifying with it.  If we do not like what we see then we do not identify with it.  Any trait that does not resonate with us is not part of us.  It is as easy as that!

To release any of these qualities, however, we first have to acknowledge that they exist and then in recognizing this, we are free to do with them what we please.  Challenging these personality quirks provides us with many alternatives.  Moving from one thing to the next is not a challenging event if we understand the concept of self-development and self-actualization.

We are the master of our own identity.  The only challenge we will meet is deciding what to keep or alter and what to expel. 

Take control of your expression to the world and allow your true identity to be....in the moment.

THE SUN MOVES INTO VIRGO - AUGUST 23, 2019



As the transiting Sun moves from Leo, a fixed fire sign, to Virgo, a mutable earth sign, the whole idea of practicality comes into play.  Those with their Sun in this meticulous sign need to have all their cards in order before they move ahead with any of life’s plans.  As a matter of fact, these careful, analytical, duty oriented people need to have almost anything in order before they will plunge into action.

Virgoan individuals or those with a strong Virgo tendency in their natal chart are service oriented and known to be reliable, practical and well organized.  If the typical Virgo is not organized and their home or working conditions are in chaotic conditions, it is often a sign that life itself is not in order. 

These individuals are the perfectionists of the Zodiac, and they are able to spot all the little flaws that others could easily miss.

Virgo individuals make great organizers and are quite capable when it comes to any detailed work.  They make great clerical workers, planners and use their abilities of organization.  These individuals often display perfectionist abilities and set things in order with great precision.  Their attention to detail is second to none, and they are reliable and always ready to help.

Their attention to detail can also be found with health concerns or dietary implementation, as this is right up their alley.  It just comes natural to them, and in most cases, they pay close attention to all the little details and internal workings of the body.  They actually can become worry-warts and may need to learn how to lighten up a little when it comes to health issues.  They even have the potential to become obsessive in many areas of life if they leave themselves unchecked.

In general, they would love to help you organize your life or your office or even your closet.  They will take great pride in working to the best of their abilities and look for very little in return.  A good concise outcome to their efforts is of utmost importance.  Let them calculate, process and plan things out, and then sit back and watch them at work.

In relationships and with themselves, they tend to notice all the little flaws which is especially true with themselves.  If they look for things that are perfect, unfortunately not much will make this grade.  Once again, the typical Virgoan needs to lighten up and recognize that little in life is perfect and this is perfectly acceptable.  They can help themselves by paying close attention to the good things in their lives and just how magnificent life actually is.

Virgo individuals are service oriented and truly want to help.

Watch for our mini forecast for Virgo coming up on August 23, 2019.

Baffled by Life?



We often cannot help but wonder why our world is under such chaos at times.  I have been asked many times, “Why would God allow these events to take place”. 

At times some matters seem relentless.  So many individuals are filled with sadness, hatred and confusion.  It seems that there is never a day that passes without some momentous event taking place somewhere in our world.

Many of the tragedies that occur involve individuals that seem to have no connection with the cause of the events taking place.

Violence evokes more violence and so the vicious circle of hate continues without resolution, without finding peace.

Why does ruthlessness come so easily to some who have a seemly total disregard to their fellow brothers and sisters?  Many justify their actions by calling them justice. 

If we humans can easily behave in such ruthless fashions, why then can we not easily behave in more peaceful fashions?  Should it not come easy as we all crave love and acceptance?

Why can we not live side by side in peace and align with our true purpose of love and compassion? 

If it is so easy to create havoc, surely it is just as easy to create harmony and balance.

Is it not possible to live in peace and offer one another the support, compassion and respect that are so desperately needed? 

Can we not find peaceful resolutions and common ground for all to share? 

Why does there have to be violence and vindictive behaviours? 

Peace begins with each one of us individually.  We are the starting point.  We can start within our own little circle.  Self, family and acquaintances are often where the battle grounds are initiated.  If we cannot be tolerant with our brothers and sisters, how will we ever learn to be loving and compassionate with strangers? 

Have we not evolved enough to initiate the beginnings of a peaceful race or is our need for power and control more important?

Why can we not celebrate our differences?  Accept that no one is the same as we are.  Isn’t that wonderful?

We are the same also however.  Love is the core of everyone.  Love holds no grudges and causes no intentional pain.  It comforts the suffering and satisfies the hungry.  It is boundless and ever present.  It shows no prejudice, eliminates no one and is committed to peace.

Love is not something that has to be worked on.  It naturally is.  Love resides within each of us and is available always.  Re-ignite the spark of love and be open to its flame.

Be one with the truth. Spread love through forgiveness, peace, tranquility, sensitivity and compassion.  It begins with you. You alone can bring this to the surface in your life, simply by being love.  It is yours to share.  Be the example of the change that is needed in our world.

TRANSITING PLUTO CONJUNCT MERCURY



Mercury’ energies deal with our thinking process.  By Astrology sign, it defines different manners of communication and how our intellect operates.  Mercury has to do with the way we define our intensions and how we stand as individuals with our own objectives and reasoning abilities.

This is the only planet that actually needs something to stimulate it, as on its own it is neutral in its function.  Transits, therefore, play a significant role in how we express ourselves.  All natal planets and angles to our natal Mercury take on a role in helping define Mercury’s energies for us, but its sign placement and house position play a big part in how the mind operates.

Pluto is the planet of transformation, regeneration and the uncovering of life’s secrets which were learned through self-understanding and a willingness to go below the surface of matters.  When transiting Pluto aspects our Mercury, it opens doors to learning experiences.  By the time Pluto has passed beyond its orb of influence on Mercury in our chart, we will have questioned our thoughts and philosophies and probably made major changes along the way.

Pluto’s influence in the natal chart is never a passive one.  Its demands for truth often brings out and challenging conditions and power struggles that need to be faced.  We cannot ignore Pluto and during this time, our will is tested, our judgement intensifies and we are able to examine anything with great insight.  What we dig up may not always be pleasant but what we find will be truth and these truths have to be dealt with.

Do not ignore what Pluto is trying to convey.  It is important and changes may be necessary in order that we rise above details and position ourselves so that once this transit is over, we have made the necessary changes preparing us for what is yet to come.  It is often a transit of magnificent changes and transformational experiences, although possibly challenging in nature during the experience of the aspect.

When working with the energies of Pluto, this transit can be used to our benefit as we dig ever deeper into the meaning of life.  It will reveal what needs to surface and offers us opportunities to move above challenging conditions and/or to leave a stagnated situation and in doing so we will have made our mark.

This is a great aspect for self-study and any kind of research can have profound effects.  Meditation would be very beneficial and will often open doors that were previously closed.  This is a time of honest reflection as well as a time to realistically view life’s conditions.  Once we have had the opportunity to reflect, we can make constructive changes that will further our growth in the right direction.

TRANSITING PLUTO MOVING THROUGH THE FIRST HOUSE



Transiting Pluto is the agent of transformation and depending on which house it is transiting, it will embody and change the energies and areas of life represented by that particular house.  As Pluto moves into a house and crosses the house cusp, its energies are enhanced.  As Pluto transits, planets within the house by conjunction or an aspect to other planets in other houses, its energies of dynamic change and regeneration merge with the energies of the planet in question. 

Conjunctions are always the most intense experiences we can encounter, although squares and oppositions are also quite profound in their eventual release.

Pluto is very powerful when it conjuncts the ascendant and often produces permanent changes on a very personal level.  This can include changes and transformations to relationships, changes to personal appearance, to the relationships with others, to our occupation, to the home environment and other areas of expression.

Pluto moving into the first house can bring to the forefront unexpressed or ignored inner qualities or experiences that will now need to surface and be confronted.  It is best not to try to push aside things that surface under this influence.  We should deal with what comes forth.  By dealing with personal issues, we can rid them once and for all or challenge them and change them in an appropriate manner to something that will facilitate change on a permanent level.  What once was now may be inappropriate, and we make changes that will put us more in line with our life’s path and also helps us understand the more dark corners of our personality.

Some of these personality quirks need to be addressed, acknowledged and then often put to rest.  Some of these traits may not be overly pleasing but rest assured that if we ignored or tried to ignore them, they will never be resolved and the transformation that needs to take place will not take place.  When it finally surfaces, the actions are much more dynamic, harsh and life altering because even though we have tried to ignore them, they must be dealt with.

It is almost futile to resist the changes taking place as we learn to deal with life experiences under this influence.  The indicators of the need for change may be subtle in the beginning but if we choose to ignore these indicators, Pluto’s energies will gather in momentum and intensity. 

Willingly or unwillingly, we will emerge a totally different personality and life will alter significantly as Pluto’s energies transmute our inner core and present us with outer changes that affect us on a very personal level. 

What needs change will be activated and ego interference is quite possible; however, as we begin to merge into our newly forming self, what once was is replaced with permanence and what now surfaces is much more in line with our evolutionary requirements.

Pluto is very much a part of our ongoing evolutionary process and although often tedious and challenging, it will help us understand ourselves and recognize our potential as spiritual beings, if we choose to open the door to this understanding. 

A new you will emerge under this influence of Pluto.  Allow this energy to transcend your life forward and awaken you to your potential.
