ALLEVIATING PRESSURE

We all search for ways to alleviate pressure/stress from life. Our experience can be challenging when life presents us with many difficult lessons. We can become anxious and worry about outcomes. We can become stifled and feel lost if we lose focus.

 

Taking back control by accepting responsibility is step one. We cannot however take responsibility for someone else’s actions only our response to their actions. We walk our road, and if we allow it can easily be influenced by the actions of others. Look closely and recognize what is yours to own and allow others to own their own.

 

In moving forward in this manner, we can begin to alleviate stress. We accept our part in the ongoings and know that others are responsible for their own. If their actions affected us, we can move beyond this and not own it.  Their actions reflect them not us.

 

If we need to forgive ourselves for our actions, we can move forward with this as well. Letting go after careful review is essential. Holding on for any longer than needed to process, repairs nothing and often brings on more hurt, worry or anxiety.

 

In many cases no one else can alleviate life’s pressure although speaking to someone with knowledge on how to handle these situations is often helpful but ultimately it is you that takes the action to solve any issue. They provide you with tools, but these tools must be used, or they serve no purpose.

 

Realize you are much stronger than you think. Hidden strength is realized from taking the first step to emotional independence. It is always in our hands to activate energies that will propel us forward. There is always assistance available, and the major source of this assistance comes from within.

JUPITER SEXTILE THE SUN

The aspect of Jupiter in sextile with the Sun is one of the most awesome placements we can have in a birth chart. By transit it usually suggests opportunities at least while the aspect is in force. In the natal chart the opportunities represented by this fortunate aspect can be long lasting depending on which planet is aspecting this placement by transit or progression.

 

Remember the natal placements are stationary and they need stimulation by transit to create energy. Once activated through transit or progression this placement suggests that opportunities for growth and expansion are highlighted. The closer the natal aspect is to being direct (sextiles are 60°) the more powerful its expression.

 

Those with this placement (depending on what other natal positions are involved as well as the transiting planet involved) experience good luck, a feeling that nothing can go wrong, an opportunity to explore life’s potential and linkage towards opening channels to life’s path.

 

It also speaks of general good health and for those with health challenging conditions, a better healing environment.

 

The Sun has to do with who we are internally and with Jupiter in sextile to the Sun this often indicates an expansive character with an expression of good fortune, greater potential, and a general feeling that life will always work out.

 

Because of this attitude, these people often move in the direction of their choice and often in a growing direction. Many have a happy-go-lucky attitude and nearly always believe that something good is right around the corner. Even when life is challenging, they know that lessons are not always easily. They wrap their arms around adversity knowing that something important needs to be learned.

 

Those with a tight sextiles between the Sun and Jupiter often seem as though things just falls into their lap. This aspect is like a grand trines where self-sufficiency seem to prevail. Much depends on the planets aspecting this position but the most challenging is transiting Saturn making a square to one planet and an inconjunct to the other.

 

Those with this position in their charts should use these energies to the best of their capabilities. Those that do not have these placements can use the energies of Jupiter when in transit to expand their possibilities and remaining open to its potential when it comes their way.

EASY GOES THE JOURNEY

There is no need for rush to develop our evolution/growth. Push and pull will never hasten success over the long haul. If we rush ahead, we make mistakes and can tire quickly. Persistent effort and the ability to move ahead regardless of obstacles is essential. One step at a time. We cannot skip any steps along the way.

 

Do not get caught up in what may feel like stalemates or stagnation. If we are not ready to move, we won’t; even when we feel we are ready. If we feel stuck, we can ask ourselves “do we need a rest or what other work needs to be done?”

 

Go easy on yourself. We are not running the quarter mile race. Endurance and persistence win this journey. There will be obstacles along the way. That is part of life. Obstacles teach valuable lessons. Life and evolution are tied together; they walk the same road. We evolve as we walk. We never stop learning.

 

Thought structure and expectations mold our life over time. We must believe in ourselves and know that we are our only obstacle. As we conquer our mind we free ourselves.

CANCER FULL MOON

We will experience a Wolf Full Moon @ 16° Cancer on January 6 @ 6:07 p.m EST. This Full Moon falls in the 2^nd decant adding a hint of Scorpio to the energy. It is in opposition to Mercury @ 17° Capricorn and is sextile Uranus at 15° Taurus. Check your chart to see if this Full Moon affects you. The more it influences the natal chart, the more influence affecting your life.

 

Full Moons are a culmination point of what was set in motion 6 month earlier during the New Moon in the same sign. The energy we put into a goal is directly related to the harvest of the fruits of our labour. This is a time to harvest, re-evaluate our ambitions and calculate what still needs to be done or to refurbish our goals.

 

When in the sign of Cancer (with some Scorpio influence), this likely has to do with family, friends, the home environment, and any nurturing that might be included at this time. “Looking after” might be a good phrase to simplify what this is about. Some re-establish a home environment that perhaps was not in place prior to this time. Family members may move in or some may decide to move out. It may be a time when we revisit our parent’s situations and make decisions based on their personal needs. Often time the parents or children are part of what is unfolding.

 

With Scorpio we may need to dig deep and face some hidden matters that should be dealt with. Sometimes reaching within is what is required. There is often more that goes on than what is revealed on the surface. We may not like what we see.

 

The opposition from Mercury may suggest that we need to make plans or take needed action. Making decisions based on what is required even though emotionally challenging may be required. The opposition often suggests that other people are involved. It might not be your decision that counts but that they are making suggests that you likely need to listen to.

 

The sextile from Uranus suggests that what is taking place may not have been anticipated (unexpected) but action is required. A move in a new direction may be needed. The unexpected should be expected with Uranus.

NEW YEAR NEW INSIGHT

What will we set our sights on in 2023?

 

Leaving the past behind is essential. Set goals and push ahead. Do not be dismayed if your goals do not unfold exactly as you intended. Be open. Set your priorities but know your boundaries.

 

What is your focus?

 

What are your most important goals?

 

Do you believe in them?

 

Do you believe in you?

 

Why are you specifically pursuing these goals?

 

If you intend on creating something or advancing in some form, you must have affirmative answers to these questions. The goals do not have to be extravagant. Be your own guide but listen to the quiet advice often coming through alternate channels.

 

Be positive and look at the prospects as though they are already in place.

 

You are the only obstacle in the way of your progress. Intensions tell the story, and your attitude speaks volumes. Be the initiator and the motivator.

 

Allow peace no matter which road you take.

MASTERING NEGATIVITY

There is no denying life is full of challenge. We reach turning points when our lives move in complete new directions which alters our path significantly. Some of these are extremely difficult while others are liberating. Regardless of our judgement on how things may pan, these experiences move us out of situations that no longer suit us. They place us in new and at times unknown directions.

 

Some experiences create fear, anxiety, and worries, while others bring relief and tranquility. The negative connotations require effort on our part and many of us spend countless hours pondering and worrying because we fear the unknown.

 

We cannot escape our life’s experiences, nor should we. We must go through these events and learn from them. Trying to ignore these events pushes us further into the issue. They must be dealt with accordingly and accepted as part of the journey. We must be open to the lesson and then eventually move past it. There is not point in holding on to hurt, blaming others or taking on blame. Letting go is the best option after learning the lesson.

 

Hardship is more a mental resistance than a physical experience. We can get so caught up in our thoughts that we do not allow ourselves to recover from the experience. We deserve the ability to live and no matter what took place, it does not define us. Deal with the matter and feel what you need to feel. Emotions cannot be ignored nor can the reality of the situation, but they can be accepted and then released.

 

Find meaning in each situation. Learn the lesson. Be at peace with yourself. No outside influences can make you recover from any situation. Only you can make you get back on your feet and move forward. People can influence and support us but ultimately we do our own personal work.

TRANSITING ASPECTS FOR THOSE WITH A CAPRICORN SUN

Transiting Mercury, Venus, and Pluto all make conjunctions at some point for those with their natal Sun in Capricorn.

 

Mercury moved into Capricorn December 7 and goes retrograde at 24° on Dec 29. It remains in retrograde until Jan 18 when it goes direct once again at 8° Capricorn and moves into Aquarius approx. February 12/23.

 

Venus moved into Capricorn on December 11 until January 4 when it moves into the sign of Aquarius, while Pluto has been in Capricorn in the later degrees for some time, sitting around the 27/28°.

 

The conjunction between Mercury & the Capricorn Sun are tied to reasoning regarding your life’s passage, your goals and objectives, your inner view of yourself and how you will achieve what you are setting out to do. While Mercury is in retrograde you should be laying out these plans to move forward after Mercury goes direct. Retrograde cycles for Mercury have to do with planning but not moving ahead. The direct movement of Mercury suggests moving ahead. Much will depend on which houses are involved.

 

Venus and the Sun in conjunction in Capricorn is a favourable position although Capricorn does have some trouble expressing the love and affection connected to Venus. Capricorn hampers but does not suggest that love and affection are not part of the process only that it is harder to maneuver ahead. Venus while in Capricorn can also have something to do with your objectives regarding financial investment or the work it may take to achieve your financial rewards especially related to hard work and disciplined effort.

 

Pluto in Capricorn conjuncting your Sun has to do with changing direction, or some difficulties tied to what you must do to move towards new or changed inner attitudes or your goals and intentions. Pluto tends to overthrow anything that no longer suits your evolutionary path and the Sun is directly attuned to the path in life. As you can imagine this can be a massive adjustment due to an all or nothing approach from Pluto. Pluto changes things because they need to change but for something to change something is outdated & no longer serving a real, viable purpose.

 

Towards the end of December these three energies come together forming a much tighter conjunction and the combination of these energies for anyone having their Sun in the later degrees of Capricorn this can be life changing. No halfway measures and life’s direction may go through a substantial change because there is a need to move in that direction. Check the house position and the aspects from other natal and transiting planets to get the full picture.
