NEW RELATIONSHIPS

or those that are in a significant relationship, or any relationship for that matter, it is important to share and express your feelings, opinions, and experiences.  By opening the door to your intimate feelings and thoughts, you allow the relationship to transcend to the next level if this is where you want to take it. 

 

Many of us have experienced problematic relationships and sharing inner feelings may not have been beneficial and because of these past experiences, we may now feel that this result may again materialize if we share our inner feelings.

 

In order to activate the bond in a relationship however, it is important even though we may feel uncomfortable or worried that we may get hurt or used in some way again, that we share our inner self in order for our relationships not to stagnate and eventually disintegrate because of this fear.  We must realize that conditions from a past relationship no longer hold true for our new ones.  These new relationships can and in some cases will offer a new definition of what a meaningful relationship should look like.

 

Fear is often an offshoot of past experience and we learn through our mistakes, but we have to allow ourselves to open up again in order to move forward within important relationships.  This new relationship may provide us with something that we have never experienced before and moving to the next level is often what is required to go deeper into this new union.

 

This is something new and may not reflect anything of the past in any way.  It may provide us with a comfort level and companionship that we have never experienced before.  We must allow ourselves to let go a little.  Weigh out all the facts and move forward with the objective of creating a loving experience shared by two souls. 

 

We are not thrown together by chance.  Everyone we meet that becomes significant has a purpose and we are here to grow and merge our individualities into a more full, combined entity so to speak.

 

It can be difficult and sometimes frightening to move forward and open ourselves up to the personal secrets that are buried within.  When the time is right and we have had time to look deep into our mates and our instinct and gut draws us to this individual, take the chance.  You might be pleasantly surprised of the outcome. 

 

If we never take chances in life, we will simply live our sheltered lives with regrets and “what ifs”.  We can never grow without stepping forward out of our comfort zones.  We must always listen to our gut and that quiet voice within. 

 

Yes, there is always a risk in the many things that we do in life, but there is also an opportunity that life will move forward in a new and wonderful direction and it will hold rewards beyond our present imagination. 

 

The choice is yours.

SUN/MOON INTERACTIONS IN ASTROLOGY

 The Sun and Moon aspects within the Astrological natal chart are important.  

 

On a parental level, the Sun represents our father or disciplinary parent while the Moon represents our mother or nurturing parent.  Our parents are also linked to the MC and IC.  In some cases, the sign and house positions of these luminaries will define our parents.  

 

When transits and progressions involve our luminaries, they too often speak of our parents.  Our parents certainly are not the only focus for these luminaries however as the Sun and Moon can also speak of our emotions (Moon) and our identity (Sun), among other things.  

 

The aspects in our natal chart between the luminaries often depict the relationship between our parents and because of this, they also define the messages we received and internalized concerning our own part in this life (as man or woman) and our thinking of the opposite sex.

 

We would like to point out some important roles linked to the Sun and Moon.  

 

The Sun as mentioned identifies our father and also the role that men or the more dominant individuals play in our lives.  This can be an authority figure although in most cases the authority figure is represented by the planet Saturn.  

 

The Moon on the other hand as mentioned is indicative of our mother or the role women or the nurturers play in our lives.

 

The Sun has to do with ego and is the ruler of the sign Leo, in which ego plays a significant role.  The Moon, rules by Cancer, has to do with emotions and instincts.  

 

The motto of the Sun is “I am”.  The Sun is linked to self-assuredness, self-sufficiency, the urge for control of our destiny, our objectives and our goals. 

 

The Moon has a direct connection to our emotional makeup and what we feel and what we know instinctively (thinking is related to the planet Mercury).  The Moon is sometimes linked to intuition although the Moon’s placement by sign has a huge influence on this.  The Moon has to do with our emotional security, our moodiness and reaction to outside influence as well as our internal dialogue.  It also relates to our ability to moderate ourselves within our environment and our connection to others.  

 

The Sun, on the other hand, along with Mars, is powerfully connected to our drive in life.  The Moon describes how we go about satisfying our emotional needs.  The Moon is our emotional connection to our world, while the Sun is our urge to satisfy our desire to succeed.

 

When deciphering the aspects between the Moon and our Sun placement, as with all aspects, the closer the aspect is to being direct, the more important it becomes in the Astrology chart.  It is also important to recognize that applying aspects (moving towards each other) are more relevant than separating aspects (moving apart).  If, for example, the Sun and Moon are in conjunction and they are in the sign Libra and the Sun is at 7 degrees Libra while the Moon is at 10 degrees Libra, this is a separating aspect. If things were the other way around, so the Moon were at 7 degrees and the Sun were at 10 degree then this would be an applying aspect.  When the faster moving planet is moving towards the slower moving planet this is called an applying aspect while if the faster moving planet is moving away from the slower moving planet this is called a separating aspect.

 

Much will depend on the aspects between these two luminaries and also how they are related to other aspects within the birth chart.  The sign and house position carry greater weight and help define these energies and how they will relate to each other.  Do not forget that the house placement will be the areas of life that generates activity.  The sign is how this energy is released and its manner of expression.  The aspect will characterize how these energies pan out and whether they are working together in harmony or against one another in discord. 

 

By analysing the Sun, Moon and Ascendant in an individual’s chart, you will have a worthy idea of who this person is, along with the best way to approach them.

WISE OLD SOULS KEEP LEARNING

 On a physical level, you can exercise, eat properly, have regular checkups and in general look after yourself, but will this keep you young? 

 

Is being young a state of the body or a state of mind?  

 

You have heard or experienced how some young children seem to be old souls and are wise beyond their years.   Does wisdom make you old? 

 

Most young children play and enjoy their life and live in the moment.  This might be considered young.  They have few cares but when they have one, they can become obsessed within that moment.  However as soon as they move away from the issue by altering their focus, the issue is often gone forever or holds little relevance. 

 

Should this be considered young or a youthful thing to do, or is this something we could all benefit from?

 

Staying forever young certainly deals with conditioning and living in the moment.  Having fun may be an attitude we all should share, child or adult.  Children enjoy the moment and live within it.  They fully experience all the details of their focus. 

 

We, as adults, tend to live in our minds and think in terms of what will be or what has already been.  Rarely are we content with living in the now.  Staying forever young yet wise is an attitude.  Keep you mind open to new concepts and ideas.  Life always provides us with new lessons because we never have all of the information or all of the answers.

 

If you want to feel young, have fun and keep learning.  Don’t ever think that there is nothing left.  That frame of mind will ultimately end your existence. 

 

We are enveloped in a spiritual journey and we have just opened the door.  Even the most advanced souls (or should I say especially the most advanced) know that the journey of knowledge is just beginning.  The further along we progress, we realize how little we actually know.  This does not mean that we are ignorant of understanding.  It does mean this journey is new.

 

Stay young by remaining in the “school of life”.  Be mindful and watch your focus.  Learn from the very young and be open to the recognition that the journey is just beginning.

SUN MOVES INTO TAURUS, APRIL 19, 2020

 Late today (April 19, 2021), the Sun moves from the Cardinal, Fire sign of Aries into the Fixed, Earth sign of Taurus. 

 

If Taurus is strong in your chart, you are considered stable and reliable.  You would be an individual seeking security.  Those that have reached security either through material abundance or financial success may also find that they are more entrenched in this security from within.  Security can make its way into our lives through many different channels, although an attitude of security is our greatest asset or a defiant obstruction. 

 

Most Taurus individuals want to be known for their even temper, although they can be subject to outbursts, but not very often.  They are usually slow to anger but often hold on the grudges and feel hurt more than they are willing to admit.  If you cross these individuals, it is hard for them to forget.  Trust is a valuable attribute and a huge part of their comfort level. 

 

As mentioned, security is important for the typical Taurus individual.  Many Taureans think and prepare for retirement early in life, slowly increasing wealth or security through property or business enterprise.  A Taurus individual will not go into business without being prepared, however.  They do not like change and will persevere through much adversity rather than make significant changes.  If they do take that step, you know it has been in the back of their mind for a long time.  They do not like to take chances and like the tried, tested and true.

 

Most Taureans (being ruled by the planet Venus) are known for being quite sensual and often have strong physically attractive bodies.  Love and affection are important factors and they do not take love connections lightly.  When in love, they give it their all, although in some cases this begins to surface in later years.  They are dependable in many ways and stick by their loved ones for the long haul.  If they decide to split from their partner, they have profound reasons behind their choice.

 

In 2021, those with their Sun between 9-14 degrees in Taurus will have transiting Uranus conjunction their Sun sign.  This suggests that changes of varying sorts take place and often in unusual ways.  Some will seek to find freedom from anything that has held them in a place (in reality they did not want to be there) and move in a different direction.  Much will depend on the house placement of the Sun in the birth chart as this is the area of life that offers up a new direction and perhaps a break from tradition. 

 

If your Sun is in an earlier degree, then this might have taken place prior to this birthday and if your Sun is later than 14 degrees, you can expect things to change as Uranus nears your natal Sun.

 

Uranus’s action can be abrupt and sudden and often it takes place unexpectedly but fosters in a change that is required at that point in your life.  The way things were prior to this change needed some revamping and, in some cases, a total change.  It likely will not be an easy change even though it is what is required. 

 

If affected by this aspect, the path in life moves in a new direction.

VOID OFF COURSE CONTINUED (Part Two) what’s appropriate to pursue and what is not)

 We are continuing our post on Void of Course Moon in Astrology from April 7, 2021. www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/49854774-void-of-course-moon-in-astrology-part-1-

 

Many individuals explain that they experience synchronicities relating to the spiritual or mystical when the Moon moves into its VOC motion. 

 

There may be something “other worldly” about this period and this may explain a feeling of impartiality towards material or ordinary living.  As mentioned, people seem less concerned about material living and appear to be ungrounded and out of sorts.  Applying this to rational thinking, we might determine that this could be a time of connecting with our higher self and/or oneness with our source, the whole if you please.  This may sound somewhat religious in its tone but in reality, all things are energy, and this would also be considered energy as a whole with spiritual tendencies not religious.

 

Spirituality does not have to take the path of “in-the-box religion”.  We understand that the route travelled by traditional religion offends some and lifts others.  If this is the path that is comfortable for you, so be it and it is suggested to all readers that they always remain open so that nothing slips through without consideration. 

 

We are all unique and are here to learn our own unique lessons.  Whether you believe you will learn best from traditional religion, nature, spiritualism, books you read, internal dialogue etc., please follow your heart.

 

Whatever path feels right for you, it will include times when it is necessary to look within, time for self-reflection, prayer (particularly of appreciation) and meditation (the act of listening).  Under the influence of the Void of Course energies, it is best to steer clear of any material objectives but enlightenment, on some level, is much more attainable, if the desire is authentic. 

 

Under the influence of the VOC energies, it is not wise to attach ourselves to material objectives, from buying a new vehicle or pursuing financial gains through speculation or risky ventures.  Beginning a business project or asking for a raise or promotion might not be timed favourably under the energies of the VOC energies either. 

 

It is always suggested to wait until the next major aspect makes contact (most Astrologers agree that only major aspects should be used).  In this Astrologer’s opinion, there is not enough data to make an informed decision on whether we should wait until the next minor or major aspects.  Perhaps the disruption, or in contrast, the energies of spirituality and occult leanings are more enhanced and more energetically inclined through the major aspect and this might be the reasoning behind such thinking, although the aspect concerned would be after the VOC period.

 

As mentioned, if you feel that you need to begin something relevant to your life’s situation either from a spiritual perspective or material objective, it is advisable to wait as things often do not work well under these energies.  If you have little choice on the timing, however, have the steps formulated ahead of the VOC energies by someone else.  You may be better off taking a back seat than stepping into the driver’s seat. 

 

The same may apply to legal proceedings.  If at all possible, it is best to wait to entertain such actions or start such endeavors as the potential for some type of setback is often likely when the Moon is VOC.

 

When it comes to make decisions concerning personal matters, it would also be advisable to wait for the VOC period to pass.  Buying a house or deciding to arrange a marriage celebration or pushing ahead with having children would be included in this list. 

 

Most Astrologers believe that the VOC energies are similar to those of retrograde planets (with the exception of Saturn, as its energies in the retrograde cycle work better than when it is direct) as the energies are not in full force or are held back in some way.  This period should be used to formulate a plan of action rather than pushing ahead with your action, similar to Mercury retrograde.

 

It is always suggested that you rely on your own intuition and to not be led by anything or anyone.  Astrology is certainly a viable tool which is at your disposal, but freedom of choice and freewill is the key to our life’s lessons. Move ahead at your own discretion and live your life in accordance to what you feel serves your true purpose is always the best approach.

SHOOT THE RAPIDS

 We sometimes have to take a moment to see the potential that lies right in front of us. 

 

Are we rigid in our thinking or are we open in our thinking? 

 

Are we open enough to broaden our knowledge which allows us to expand? 

 

It can be very comfortable in our present conditions.  We can become complacent due to this comfort and find ourselves stationary or stagnate.  We are content to stay in this comfort zone as we are afraid to “rattle the cage” and many of us fear change….the unknown.

 

What do your visions for tomorrow look like?

 

We must utilize our dreams and push towards new growth, even though if the current circumstance feels so very comfortable.  Living in the here and now is our ideal goal but being in the moment does not mean that we have to stay in the same place.  We always have choices along the way and can utilize whatever our current life is offering us at anytime if we wish to take advantage.  We might have to push a little, however, to realize it is necessary to keep moving ahead.

 

Life unfolds, and we do not have to do anything, yet why not expand and take advantage of all that is available? 

 

We are here to experience and the choices are in our hands, even when we feel as though we were being swept away by the current.  How we react in our journey is a choice.  We have the full ability to channel our thoughts and expectations into a direction that can help us achieve what we need to.

 

It is perfectly normal to experience pain, but we should not give up and wallow in this pain.  Push through.  Everyone will experience challenging events and issues.  It is part of the life experience, but we decide how long we wish wallow.  Experiences are lessons.  Learn from them and grow. 

 

Prepare for the future but live in the now.  We are riding the current of life but that does not mean we cannot pick up a paddle and help with the journey, just do not try to battle the current.   

 

Dream your dreams and set your goals.  Without goals what is the point of pushing.  Strive for something and reach out beyond what is in front of you.  Push yourself to expand and learn.  Be open to whatever the outcome may be.  When we are not flexible with our focus, we may hit large barriers.  Become farsighted.  See the barriers ahead and do not ride blindly.  Grab your paddle and let’s see what lies ahead.  Let’s shoot the rapids!

TRANSITING PLUTO CONJUNCT VENUS

 This post on the transit of Pluto can apply to the conjunction to natal Venus, progressed Venus and Venus in the solar chart.  How we interpret the energies will depend on which house Pluto is transiting, its natal position and the house that Venus is in within the current chart.  

 

Is this aspect currently in your chart?

 

Regardless of where these planets are located in the Astrology chart, Venus’ energy focuses on relationships and Pluto can have profound effects on the sexual content of these relationships.  Pluto adds passion and intensity to sexual unions and although it signifies a passionate relationship, it will not be without some type of energy evolved around control issues.  Pluto can be very compulsive, even obsessive and seeks domination and power.  Therefore, any relationship which began under this influence will not be a light-hearted one.  Your involvement will be all inclusive and the potential for transformation on deep internal, physical and emotional levels are indicative of this combination.

 

You are likely to have power issues and one of the partners may want dominance over the other. This is not a passive encounter and although the encounter will be heightened to the extreme, there may be some struggles along the way.  You will undoubtedly be looking at an intense encounter.  

 

How intense are you willing to go and what boundaries will you put in place?  

 

You might have trouble setting boundaries with this relationship.

 

If this relationship is already established, you will still have powerful needs and will want instant fulfillment. There are no half measures under this influence in a relationship and if you feel as though you are not satisfied with the relationship, be careful not to be swayed by your desires.  It is, however, a time when you can uncover any psychological interference that might need adjustment.  Under the influence of this aspect this may well be the time that these issues surface.  Handle the situation in a gentle fashion.  Remember that sex and love can be sensitive areas and your partner can easily become hurt if you do not use tactics and deal with these issues from your heart.

 

Have a close look at your chart and locate Mars to see how Mars is aspected.  This aspect will either make things easier or more challenging.  Mars provides the motivation and drive required for any union.  If it is in aspect to Venus in the natal chart, this will add to the flavour of this transit.  If Mars is in a challenging position to Pluto, this could mean some type of confrontation or test. 

 

I would be amiss if I did not note that you should be careful that you are not aligning yourself with the potential for violence.  I am not suggesting that there will be violence but need to give a warning. 

 

The whole chart should be carefully delineated to provide a complete understanding of what is taking place in your life and with this relationship, (if there is a current relationship).  Without a relationship this could be a very frustrating time, but this too will pass.
