FULL MOON AUGUST 22, 2021

On August 22, 2021, we will experience a Full Moon in the sign of Aquarius at the 29th degree at 8:01 a.m. This is a Blue Moon (second Full Moon in August). There are indicators that planets in the 29th degree have a sense of urgency to them. The Full Moon speaks of a culmination point and the reaping of the fruits of our labor.

 

Aquarius often has to do with humanitarian principles and the desire to walk your own personal road. This then should be a unique time and opportunities are at hand due to the placements (in your chart) of the Full Moon.

 

Jupiter is conjunct the Moon at 26 degrees which signifies growth and expansion and the feeling that things are going well.

 

We also have a Grand Air Trine which denotes decisive action and a feeling that you need little if any help from outside sources. Grand trines have been noted to be closed circuits of self-sufficiency.

 

What was set in motion some six months ago should now come to fruition. Whatever efforts put forth leading up to the Full Moon will now bear fruit unless you did little or nothing with the energies up to this point.

 

Note which houses are involved and if a planet or significant point in your chart is within three degrees of this placement. The houses involved will relate to the area of life involved or significant angle which could be the Asc, MC, DC or IC.  Check if any other planetary energy is tightly conjunct or in opposition to 29 degrees Aquarius as these are the strongest influences.  The trine, sextile and quincunx can also play roles. The conjunction adds intensity while the opposition often speaks of other people being involved in the equation. The trine and sextile often denote positive and easy flow while the quincunx suggests that an adjustment is necessary.

 

The Grand Trine and the conjunction of Jupiter suggests a positive energy flow and potential for things working out well.  This could be a very significant time and we should let the energies flow freely and work with what is in front of us.

MASTERING OUR SELF PERCEPTION

To become proficient at self-understanding, we must recognize our attitude towards self and our perception of self. Every aspect of self is determined by our belief structures. By knowing and acting upon this, we can rise above any self limitations regardless of when they were created or “why” they were created for that matter. By simply un-identifying with these events or conceived notions, we set ourselves free of ownership of them.

 

If we do not like what we see, we can change our perspective on whom and what we think we are. We are a blend of these ideas and we set things in motion by accepting them as part of self. Before we can take alternative actions, we must recognize that the creation of self stems from our perception. We are only limited if we limit ourselves through our beliefs.

 

We can always rid ourselves of any unwanted, stagnant characteristics or notions that hold us back in our evolutionary growth. We are the only ones that can take these steps for change as we are the only ones that control our own personal perception of self. Others can say what they want for their opinions are simply that....”their” opinions.  These do not belong to us.

 

Why would we limit ourselves? Why adopt something that causes restraints? Why not reach for concepts and allow beliefs that resonate with the true self; those concepts and beliefs that propel us to a new or heightened images of ourselves?

 

Standing back and having an honest look at who you believe you are as this can set positive change into motion.

 

Understand, beyond a doubt, that the individual you wish you could be is already a part of who you are. Recognize your inner beauty and see yourself through loving eyes. You hold the key to allowing your inner self, your authentic self to shine.

STATIONARY PLANETS IN THE NATAL OR TRANSIT CHART

 Planets from Mercury to Pluto have cycles referred to as retrograde and direct motion. The Sun and the Moon never go into retrograde motion.

 

The Planets, at times, appear to slow down in the heavens. They then appear to stop their forward motion. During this appearance of their stoppage of motion, it is known as stationary retrograde (because the planet is about to go into retrograde motion). The planet will remain in this stationary position for up to a few days, depending on the planet. After the planet moves into retrograde motion (appears to be moving backwards) and completes this retrograde cycle, it once again slows down and then appear to come to a stop again. This is termed stationary direct in Astrology. The length of time a planet is in stationary direct also depends on the planet involved. The outer planets remain in their stationary position much longer than the inner planets.

 

Stationary direct and stationary retrograde have a very powerful influence on the energies in a natal chart. An individual with a planet in a stationary position in the birth chart will have emphasize on the energies represented by the planet in question. There is also influence from the sign that the planet is in and the house where the stationary planet is located.

 

There is much evidence that the stationary planet can be the most powerful influence in the birth chart and that the energies of this stationary planet will rule much of the activity that will be released. At some point in the person’s life, these energies and the influence of the planet will become very significant. The energies of the stationary planet have been linked to the defining purpose of the individual’s life by some Astrologers.  This Astrologer believes that if there are other signatures within the birth chart that imply something very similar, this is the case, particularly if the North or South nodes are involved in the equation.

 

The individual with the stationary retrograde will only discover how to use these energies after a time of lengthy inner reflection coupled with life experiences that will lead to an awakening of sorts again depending on the stationary planet, its sign and its placement. This may take time as much self-study or thought-provoking experiences must be experienced before it is released. This is quite like a retrograde planet in the birth chart as it suggests that there is some inner reflection required before action can be taken.

 

The stationary direct individual has a different experience although the process is the same. The stationary directs influence depends on the sign the stationary planet is in and the house placement. However, the stationary direct individual has a much easier time unleashing the energies associated with the planet and its placement (much less self-study and reflection is required). Things seem to work more smoothly and on a more outward expression. The motivating factor that facilitates the desired information or acknowledgement and understanding can be released at a much early stage in life or under less restrictive conditions. The Stationary direct influence works in a similar manner as a planet that is in direct motion.

 

The energies released and the influence of the planet involved is of primary importance, but the direct stationary energies seemed to come through in a much more flowing, less restrictive manner than the energies of the retrograde stationary planet.

 

These energies work in a similar manner through transit. For the period the transit influence is in effect, the individual will be subject to these energies being released. The difference between a transit and a natal positioning is that the transit is temporary in nature while the natal influence will express itself when the individual is ready during the full life cycle.

AWAKEN TO THE GIANT WITHIN

Recognizing who we are at a higher level is paramount to our true awakening. We must understand our inner identity, which is not earth related, but spiritual. Our connection to self begins with this understanding. Being hypnotized by the mundane concerns of earthly living stagnates this progress although earthly living is essential or we would not be here.

 

We are not our bodies. We are not our achievements. We are not our failures. We are not just this body we use during life on earth.

 

We are spirit living in human form. We do not have to wait until we move on from this existence into the next level of consciousness to become in touch with our spirit.

 

Recognize ego’s intent now and refrain from identifying with ego’s superficial hold on us. Many are caught up in this transitional stage and have a hard time breaking away from ego’s stronghold. Many believe that they are their ego and identify themselves as ego. They recognize its negative impact in their lives and believe that they deserve ego’s persistent efforts to make them believe that we are worthy of nothing beyond simple existence. Guilt is a by-product of the ego and if ego maintains its stranglehold, we cannot rid ourselves of our feelings of guilt.

 

Our unhealthy connection with ego and guilt becomes our ever-present sidekick that keeps us at bay and stops any type of true progress as a spiritual entity.

 

We owe it to ourselves to recognize ego for what it is and get to know the true self. We can awaken to our true potential. We can assist others to awaken to their true potential. We are even more than a global consciousness. We are one consciousness aligned with source, without exception. By discovering self, we also work on our full consciousness. It is a win/win.

UNDERSTANDING TRANSITS

The natal chart is a snapshot of the heavens at birth. The planets are frozen in time and this picture creates the natal chart, but the transit chart is the planets continuing their course immediately after your birth. These transiting planets never stop moving.

 

As these transits continue their path, mostly clockwise through your natal chart, they make aspects or angles to the natal chart. Imagine laying a picture of the transiting planets over a picture of the natal chart.  There are several major aspects as well as several minor aspects that these transits will make to locations in your birth chart. Depending on the type of aspect and planets involved, you will experience challenging or easy flow events in your life. Some aspects are event-oriented, while others are on a deep but usually conscious level, where information gathered stimulates mental activity and your thought process and reasoning ability come into play. Some of the outer planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) have profound effects on our overall development and instigate transformations that may at first be subtle but intensify as we become aware of the energies that are present in our lives.

 

There are time frames that affect us all at the same time through life, and we have touched on some of these in previous posts.

 

Each of our natal charts are unique. Transiting planets are all in the same location for each of us but how they make connection to our birth chart is different. Let’s say you have your Moon in Scorpio at 11 degrees. The planets currently transiting between 8-14 degrees of any sign would be impacting your Moon. Most transiting planets, particularly outer planets, begin to affect us when they are five degrees to becoming exact. An exact aspect when referring to the Moon at 11 degrees would be a planet at 11 degrees. This is when the influence is the strongest.

 

As these transits move around our chart, they can make aspects at any time and will have impacts on our lives when they become activated. We can forecast probable events by utilizing these aspects as they become active in your chart. We can also ascertain potentials and time frames when these activities will be in force, how intense they will be, and what can be gained through the energy.

 

Astrology is an amazing tool and offers insights into energies. Due to the varied nature of the planets and angles, these assist in providing some knowledge so that you can understand these events. Astrology has proven over many centuries its accuracy and our predecessors through experience have outlined how the planets influence us. Our ancestors have provided the modern Astrologer with proven insights into Astrology’s workings. Thanks to their diligent work and through many years of study, we have concise mathematical equations and formulas that assist us to understand our charts.

SUN TRINE NEPTUNE

 While transiting through the natal chart and making favorable aspects, Neptune characterizes such attributes as idealism and romanticism. It also connects with such things as art, music and acting. Neptune deals with mysticism, spirituality and our connection to the higher realms. Its energies can bring forth visions, inspirational writing, poetry and can heighten our psychic abilities.

 

In Neptune’s more adverse energies, it deals with deception and suffering. It can reflect our inability to see things with total clarity and reflects misconceptions about ourselves especially when connected by adverse aspects to the Sun.

 

Neptune moves about 1 to 2 degrees in direct motion in one year, so its effects while transiting any planet can be long lasting. In some cases, its energies can be debilitating.

 

In contrast, its energies can be truly inspirational during the periods it is making contact in our lives. Even under the free-flowing energies of a trine or the opportunistic aspect of a sextile, it is still wise to obtain input from those you trust (and are not being influenced by the magical forces of a Neptunian aspects). Neptune becomes more realistic and is generous when it is releasing its energies.

 

When Neptune is trine to the Sun, you may find that your attention is leaning towards the intangible. You may find that the psychic realms, spirituality, and mysticism come to the surface especially for those that have ignored such areas before this aspect. You may find that materialistic concerns seem to go by the wayside, and you search for something with a deeper meaning, something that is more relevant than let’s say your job or buying that new car. Materialistic concerns are not that important when you are experiencing Neptune’s energies.

 

Some individuals under this influence will offer their time to charity organizations or will do volunteer work because they are searching for a deeper meaning in life. Ego has to be put aside as personal concerns do not seem to be important under these energies. You recognize the challenges that others may be experiencing, and you would love to help them in some way. You may be unsure on how to move forward in this but it is best just to move ahead and see what happens. Quite often it can be a very rewarding experience.

 

As mentioned earlier, your creativity will flow, and you can create art or write poetry that can stir much imagination. You may be inspired to write, and you should follow your heart. Inspiration stems from within and your connection to self in a more spiritual sense may be expanding, especially if Jupiter is part of this process. The creative juices are flowing, and some will do their best work under this influence.

 

Neptune increases your sensitivity, and your perception of other people is magnified at this time. You can work with this and help others in their plight. You have the opportunity and the interest to assist others in ways you never thought you could. Make sure you use these energies for the benefit of others but also open the door to a clearer understanding of the mystical side of your own personal life. You can use these energies in positive ways and the worst thing you can do is to do nothing but dream about what is possible.

 

Make sure you look at the houses being influenced during Neptune trine Sun (transiting Neptune, your Sun, and the position of natal Neptune, as well as aspects to your Sun). This will tell you what areas of life are being stimulated and how these energies might materialize.

IF IT IS NOT YOURS, DO NOT OWN IT

It can be very difficult watching loved ones going through difficult experiences. We all have had these experiences. When it is us having the experience, it’s wonderful to know that others have our back and are of assistance when we need it.

 

Life can occasionally feel very unfair, and it is easy to get swept away by these circumstances when we lose our focus. There are times when we feel lost and without solution.

 

If you find yourself assisting someone, do not allow yourself to get caught up in their emotions/situation. Helping someone does not mean you should own the event. You cannot be of assistance if you are weighed down by their burden. Many of us can easily get caught up in other people’s issues because of our compassion and we end up taking on more than just the roll of support.

 

There are some individuals so tuned into energies they struggle to separate other people’s issues from their own. They can feel depressed and not understand why. If you do not understand why you are feeling what you are feeling, ask yourself where these emotions are coming from. The odds are the emotions are yours, but the reason they are there is not. It is important to take inventory of what you are feeling so that you are not carrying around someone else’s baggage.

 

Reach out to those in need; offer help and emotional support; provide an ear or shoulder when needed but do not make these issues your own.

 

Allowing someone to unload and talk is probably one of the greatest gifts you can give. Be an ear, however, not a judge. Their journey is not yours. Send love and support and let them carry on with their journey.

 

We can only assist those who want help. We must honour other’s wishes and opinions even when these differ from our own.

 

Be supportive but never carry someone else’s burden because it is not ours to carry.
