NEW MOON SEPTEMBER 6, 2021

Today, September 6, 2021, at 8:51 p.m., we will be experiencing a New Moon at 14 degrees and 37 minutes Virgo. This new Moon signifies a beginning or start of a new phase, and it is in trine to transiting Uranus at 14 degrees Taurus. This is a tight aspect and will add the new and unexpected to what this New Moon is indicating in your chart.

 

It will be impacting those who have planets close to 14 degrees and especially those planets that are in conjunction, opposition or square and to a lesser degree those that are in trine and sextile.  You can allow a three-degree orb of influence, so this will apply to planets or angles that are between 11 to 17 degrees. The tighter the orb the stronger the influence.

 

The house where this conjunction of the Moon and Sun is located will be a prime indicator of the area of life that will be involved. You will also have to take into consideration the planets that are within orb and the houses they are in to get the full picture. The natal profile (natal chart configuration) always must be delineated before drawing any conclusions.

 

Virgo is a mutable, earth sign and is very calculating and precise, wanting to create perfection on some level but seeing all the little flaws in the process. Creating order out of disorder and filing away important matters in their proper placements is what Virgo is well equipped to do. Virgo deciphers all the details and moves ahead carefully plodding each step they take. Nothing goes by without careful delineation.

 

With Uranus being tightly configurated with this New Moon’s position you can expect the unexpected and there is a strong likelihood of moving in a new direction. Sometimes things happen very quickly and suddenly allowing for little time to prepare. However, Uranus is known as the awakener and always puts us in a forward direction which we need to move towards.

 

If the aspects are unfavorable through the birth chart configurations, then this change might upset things and what was considered normal may suddenly be switched around.  Uranus always moves us in the direction we are meant to go, however. Change on some level is most likely indicated and accepting what takes place is often the best route to follow.

 

Utilize the new moon energies.  Enjoy the new start!

TRANSITING SATURN CONJUNCT VENUS

Saturn will often cause you to go within to evaluate personal relationships and your life on a material basis when it is conjunct Venus. It is a time when you will have a close look at any existing relationships that are lacking in substance. These types of relationships will either go through a period of analysis or you may walk away from the individual involved. It could be considered a time of testing our relationships and examining them in detail when Saturn conjuncts Venus. Those connections that make it through this scrutiny will be solid and reliable, and you would be wise to recognize this.

 

You may find that you must tighten your spending or at the very least, take a good look at a budget. It is wise not to go any further in debt until this transit has passed, at the very least. If you have been going through a period of budgeting and have taken a conservative approach, this could be a good time to finalize the plan and to structure your life so that you are well prepared for the future. Setting up a retirement plan and setting aside a certain amount of money weekly or monthly would be a good way to prepare for the future according to this aspect. Saturn is always looking at the long haul and if you currently follow Saturn’s advice and do not accompany the goals with worry, you could set yourself up for a comfortable future.

 

It can also be a time of self-study. Have an honest look at how your relationships may need some adjustments. This is a good time to reflect on how you interact with others and either loosen up or become more structured in how you deal with others. Perhaps you are too stingy when it comes to spending your money on friends and you should become more giving. On the other hand perhaps, you have been frivolous and now you should choose those that you deem worthy of your generosity.

 

Saturn and Venus under many conditions are not very well suited for one another, but a lot can be learned during this time. Spend time on your own. Take the time to think and reflect but do not stay this way for extended periods of time. Take note of the changes you might make to make things run smoother. Never let pessimism rule. Stay optimistic and make changes where and how you see fit.

 

When Saturn is in retrograde its energies are much gentler and often produce fewer challenging conditions than when it is direct. Saturn retrograde can produce viable results and offers less resistance than when it is moving direct. Saturn is the only planet while in retrograde that actually works well. Some even relate Saturn’s retrograde energies like Jupiter. It does not have the expansive qualities or the general opportunities, but it does provide some potential for rewarding experiences. Much will depend on the natal potential related to the aspects to Saturn from other planets and angles in the birth chart.

 

When in retrograde and connected to Venus this may signify that the relationship is reaching a more solid foundation and perhaps it moves to the next step. If this period has to do with finances perhaps having prepared for this time you are now able to buy important things such as invest in your pension or make a purchase of land or invest in a company. It will however be important to review all the other aspects currently active in your chart before you dive in.

TRANSITING SATURN CONJUNCT NATAL SUN

The natal Sun has to do with who we are on the inside, our life objectives, and goals we wish to accomplish. It speaks of our core and depending on the sign of our Sun at birth and the house placement, it identifies how we will maneuver our way through life and what area of life is important in this pursuit.

Saturn has to do with restrictions and delays but if addressed appropriately, it also promotes the solidifications of our plans and educates us through our actions. Saturn is known as the teacher of the zodiac and depending on how it is aspected and placed in the natal chart, it often denotes areas of life that need to be worked on or areas of life that might pose problematic conditions. Saturn is rarely indicative of the easy road as we will need to work hard to achieve its objectives, but hard work pays off in dividends.

The Sun in many cases is a very encouraging and a constructive placement in our horoscope. Unless it is poorly placed, there is an encouraging, hopeful approach to life and the area of life it occupies. When transiting Saturn moves into conjunction to our natal Sun, the area of life dictated by the house position of our Sun is often under some stress. It appears that we must work hard to accomplish anything we set out to do and there are often delays and obstacles to overcome.

Check the natal positioning to Saturn and its aspects to get a clear understanding of what we might be dealing with.  If Saturn natally is unafflicted and there are no other or very few transits challenging our Sun, this aspect from Saturn to the Sun may indicate that a solidification process is underway, and structures are being built that will stand the test of time. However, if there are obstacles in the way and this is a poor alignment then work must be done, and you may find that there will be shortcomings. Success is not guaranteed without continued effort and even so, things may not work exactly the way you would like them to.

Transiting Saturn causes worry as it has a bad reputation, but with a sound approach and diligent effort much can be accomplished. What it teaches is often much more important than what we are trying to accomplish. There are lessons to be learned and perhaps challenges ahead but with a positive approach and no skipped steps, much potential is available.

TRANSITING MARS TRINE URANUS

Mars transits quickly through the natal chart unless it is moving in its retrograde cycle. When it is moving in its direct motion, you can use an applying orb of 5 degrees and a separating orb of 2 degrees. When Mars sits directly on your planet or angle, this will be when its energies are the strongest.

 

Mars represents our drive and ambitions to push ahead in life, our ability to move through adversity and our ability to achieve what we set out to do. If you are naturally a relaxed individual, when Mars trines your natal Uranus, you may feel an invigorating push to speak your mind, to move ahead with your objectives and perhaps start something new.

 

Uranus will assist you if your objectives are to start something new or to move in a different direction. A trine between Mars and Uranus would be the time to advance, and you can do this with more confidence than you normally could. Because of this confident attitude, you have a greater chance of achieving what you set out to do. Mars will supply the necessary push and Uranus will offer opportunities. Perhaps the timing seems appropriate to push ahead and contrary to your normal shy exterior, which of course depends on the general character traits exhibited in the natal chart, you are likely to feel that you are more capable of achieving.

 

We are not suggesting that introverted individuals are unable to achieve easily in life as these individuals move ahead often with less notice from others. What they achieve can be just as profound as with anyone else, but they are quiet about it. Most extroverts will likely share their ideas with others and demand more attention. Much will depend, of course, on the overall implications contained in the birth chart.

 

This transit we are focusing on today can also be related to freedom of expression and the need to be heard, especially if the third house is somehow involved. Those experiencing this aspect may also take interest in what others have to say and to help them move beyond any type of complacency that they may be experiencing. However, it is important to recognize that some individuals do not take kindly to what might be considered intervention. This, however, should not stop anyone from offering their help if this is what is wanted. Reaching out may be just what the doctor ordered, and advice or push may be what is needed.

 

Quite often Mars combined with Uranus can act in unusual ways and in an unexpected manner. This push may not be expected, and this will be because of Uranus’s input with the drive of Mars. If we take the time to review what has been taking place in life or if we analyse the area of life we are considering changing, we may find that it has been calling for a change of direction or a new approach for some time now. Quite often what needs change has been letting us know for some time in some subtle form or another. If we are not making the appropriate change then Mars can create actions that are more impulsive and perhaps a little more aggressive in nature. The trine usually suggests that the transition is easy or gentler than let’s say the energies of a square or conjunction.

 

It might just be time to take steps under the influence of this aspect. Open the door and maybe, an opportunity waits for those that dare to go beyond traditional habits. Sometimes something new comes from an action taken that in the beginning may not look overly promising but under the influence of the trine, it is required, and expresses itself over time.

DESTINY’S GATEWAY

 A single lifetime on earth, in the broad scheme of things, is a very short period. It can feel that much shorter depending on when and if we wake up and start living life, rather than just drifting along ignoring the moment. Once we begin to focus on the moment, life’s experience becomes more relevant and has much more meaning and purpose.

 

When asleep, we flit from day to day with little recognition of what is happening. We fail to understand the emptiness within can only be filled with awareness and presence. We point the finger at others and fail to realize that we build our moments, and our tomorrows from our expectations and focus.

 

When we wake, we know and understand that we create life by our thoughts and will only experience limitations in life if these are part of our expectations. Our concentrated thoughts create our path.

 

Many individuals believe that the many lessons we are meant to learn throughout this life have already been determined. Whether the lessons are predetermined or change as we change our direction throughout life is irrelevant. We have choices on how we react to each and every event we experience. We have a choice on how we respond to that individual that held the door for us, to that driver that let us in through heavy traffic, to that young child who just lost their toy, to that driver that cuts us off, to the stoppage of traffic on the highway, to our house being broken into, to the loss of our spouse, and the list goes on. These do not have to be negative only experiences. The same holds true for what we term “beneficial” experiences. (Is there a non-beneficial experience?)

 

Could we have stopped the accident on the highway or the death of our loved one? Undoubtedly no. Do we have a part in the process of how we appreciate and enjoy our life? Without a doubt!

 

If we believe or consider the possibility that we are constantly building our tomorrows by what we do today and by our expectations, it possible that as we mold our journey it will flex as we build.

 

Even though we are positive, we will still experience hard lessons. These are part of our journey. Our reaction to the lessons is what is important.

 

Is it not possible for us to go through these life experiences (lessons) and our part in the process is to learn from them and then carry on? Perhaps this is part of destiny’s gateway! 

 

I believe we must learn to take everything so personally. Should we be “owning” everything that happens? We are meant to experience but not own. These are not personal. They do not define us – they teach us.

 

We and only we make the decisions. We choose what we wish to believe and what response we will have throughout our journey. It is always in our hands even when we do not believe it is.

 

Perhaps all we need to do is watch life flow, be the spectator of all the events, learn from them and move forward without stress, being fearless and free. You will need to decide and then watch what builds from that decision.

URANUS RETROGRADE AUGUST 20, 2021

 Transiting Uranus moved into its retrograde motion on August 20, 2021, and will remain in retrograde motion until January 18, 2022.

 

Uranus’ energies are very revolutionary. They seek freedom of expression and have a strong desire to remove anything that has gone stale or no longer serves a viable purpose. Uranus’ energies act in unexpected manners, and you can never be totally sure how they will respond under pressure.

 

The area of life being affect by Uranus will be the house it is transiting. There is often a feeling that something must change or be shaken up somewhat before its expression is activated. Quite often, you get warnings of necessary changes in the area of life under the house’s influenced when Uranus is in retrograde and then when it turns direct either you make the necessary changes or life makes things happen for you. If you choose to do nothing, life will often take a leading role and see that the changes take place. When changes are forced upon us, they may not be pleasant in their expression. Incidents can happen at the spur of the moment, suddenly, unexpectedly, without warning.

 

Uranus motto could be “Expect the unexpected”.

 

When a planet is in retrograde, the energies related to the planet and the house(s) it is transiting are stifled or held back. The energy is turned inward and a time for review is at hand. It is a time to rethink things out, to redo, to repair.  You can prepare for when the energies are released (direct motion) so that you can move forward in the new direction of choice.

 

Uranus suggests that this is a time for inner reflection not only about your life but on a more personal level – the level of “who you are”. It often provides you with more freedom of expression and you just want to be you, or a new you. This is particularly so if Uranus is retrograde in your birth chart.  (Any planet that is retrograde in the birth chart becomes more powerful when it turns retrograde through transit.)

 

Uranus is known as the awakener, and this is what it aims to achieve. You should also have a look at the natal and transit placement of Uranus by house and by aspect as this will give you clues into how things might unfold. As with all outer planets, Uranus will make suggestions along the way, but it will often create a course with little or no direction or input from you.

 

Life happens and things change. Uranus will be the instigator behind these actions but remember regardless of how drastic and challenging the conditions may be, Uranus always provides you with exactly what you need. The result is or will be beneficial.

 

When Uranus goes direct, this should be the time of motivation to move towards the new and to make necessary changes. Again, these can be in disruptive ways but just for the moment. Do not spend any time worrying about how things might manifest, as Uranus acts on impulse and without warning and often releases in ways that you cannot be prepared for.

 

Remind yourself, as these changes are taking place, that these are happening for a better future.

 

Some people fear changes. Those who are more evolved, or open to the new, know that when the timing is ripe and change is necessary, it should be welcomed with open arms. Uranus will take you where you need to go, so be open and listen. You will know which avenue to take, if life does not dictate, that is. Remember you have freedom of choice on how your response. Be open!

MOVING AHEAD IN MEASURED STEPS

There are times in life when the momentum seems to shift.  Times when we are moving well and other times when life seems to stall and stagnate.  

What are these stalled laps about? 

The times we appear to be moving forward or backward are measured in time sequence, that in many cases, are not of our own doing. Of course, there are times when shifts come that are expected (we see the potential and strive to make things happen).  Other times, it would appear that we have made poor judgements, or are disadvantaged times but we also see these coming. Because of this, we can prepare ourselves for what might be approaching.

More than often, life seems to take us by the hand and lead us to roads that we did not expect to be traveling. Under these circumstances, there is no time to prepare or plan. Life just seems to put us in situations that for the moment are not completely understood or predictable. These times can be uplifting, or they can feel like stumbling blocks to our growth.

As we maneuver our way through, we must adjust to where life takes us. Letting go and letting life certainly fits these occasions. When we find ourselves in a situation where something magnificent takes hold, we enjoy the ride. When life challenges us, however, we often struggle. It can be hard to see the silver lining, but if you look deep enough, you will find the valuable lesson.

We must walk these roads, good or bad. Our attitude holds the key to the pressures or enjoyment attached to each event. When life shifts, we decide what course of action to take. We also decide on our reaction to the process. We are never at the mercy of life, but we often find ourselves at the mercy of our mind’s reaction.
