LIFE TEACHERS

Throughout life we meet those we consider to be magnificent souls. They stand out and find a place not only in our hearts and minds but become a part of our creative movement. They inspire us to believe in ourselves and have faith in our future. They teach us to let go of our past and live in the present. Even though they influence us, we may never meet these people in person.

 

There are authors who not only encourage us and motivate us through their works but also seem to stir up something within which has been laying in wait for awakening. There are speakers and teachers (both in and out of school) who inspire us and help us believe in ourselves. They seem to speak directly to us and it feels as though they were meant to be in our lives during that precise moment.

 

Teachers can come in the form of parents, siblings, children, other relatives, close friends and yes even foes. They seem to say the right triggering words when we need them to either sooth us or to motivate us.

 

Life experience is the greatest teacher of all. This holds true as we work our way through adversity, bask in the times of wonder, listen….truly listen without the need to respond, and practice growth through experience as we continue moving forward.

 

Even in times of despair we move forward learning and building along the way. We gain strength from adversity and at some point through our own experiences we too can become a teacher to those who may need us during crucial times in their lives. We can be the greatest teacher through example.

 

Life is a magnificent experience with all of its life altering events. We are the students of this wonderous life. Be open and listen intently!

SUN IN TAURUS APRIL 20, 2023

On April 20^, 2023 the Sun moves out of Aries a Cardinal Fire sign into Taurus a Fixed, Earth sign. If you were to follow the sequence of Aries to Taurus the movement would be from pushing ahead in your endeavors with drive and ambition to stabilizing your advances and reaching towards more structure and steadying the achievements so they have lasting ability. You are now fortifying your previous objectives with a lasting foundation through a much more steady approach.

 

Taurus, one of the fixed modalities (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) seeks to stabilize and secure what it is building. Taureans are the ones who think about the future and make plans to safeguard the future with a lasting foundation. They seek stability and work hard to create security which can enable them to work their way through adversity and hard situations. Taureans are the builders of the Zodiac.

 

Those with strong Taurus influence in their birth chart (Sun in Taurus, planets in Taurus, links from the angles in the sign of Taurus or several planets in the second house) are hardworking, often the silent type and are known to be quite sensuous. Taurus loves beauty and often surround themselves with luxurious automobiles, beautiful clothing, furniture, and lavish surroundings. If they are not lucky enough to have these things in life, they often dream of them. They also enjoy the security of financial stability and many begin saving for their retirement when the rest of us are only thinking about it.

UNTRUSTWORTHY INDIVIDUALS

Unfortunately we meet our share of people we feel are untrustworthy. Regrettably it can take time to recognize who these people are. Our lives can be shaken when it’s revealed that one we have trusted is not who they appear to be.

 

Our most personal moments can be misused by those we trusted. These realizations as part of the learning process. Do not allow these few to shake your trust of people in general.

 

These are learning experiences and we develop and trust our gut instincts. In many cases, what we ‘feel’ is reliable but watch for becoming too caught up in anxiety and worry about whether we should speak up or open up to others. Although some may abuse our trust, this does not mean that all will do the same.

 

We can let these individuals know how we feel, especially if they are important to us. Speak of your boundaries. Not everyone has the same boundaries or concerns. This lets them know that your emotional wellbeing was affected.

 

In some cases, depending on the severity of the incident, we may choose to walk away from this individual. It is our judgement call. Be clear on your wishes and feelings.

 

Be with those you know you can trust. Engulf yourself in true friendship. Follow your intuition, listen to your gut feelings and trust in your own judgement. You know best!

TRANSITING NEPTUNE TRINE NATAL SATURN

Because T Neptune is in the late degrees of Pisces, this trine will apply to anyone with their Natal Saturn in Scorpio or Cancer. If your N Saturn is in the early degrees of Leo or Sagittarius when Neptune enters into Aries, this trine will also apply to you. Neptune remains in Pisces for about 2 more years (this post was written April, 2023).

 

Saturn always implies a reality check, as it deals primarily with earthly focuses such as business and always suggests that a diligent effort and a steady approach offers the best outcome. Saturn is about reliability and its goals solidify as time passes if we do the work necessary. You can’t miss any steps and you must apply yourself to the best of your ability.

 

When we speak of Neptune it involves that which is unseen or our creative endeavors. Neptune is often linked with spirituality, enlightenment and service on some level that offers opportunities for engagement into something greater than self. Objectives tied to seeing things as they are (encouraged by Saturn) suggest that this is a time for opportunities to know what works and seeing things as they truly are especially in connection with the psychic realm.

 

Saturn and Neptune run on opposite energies but together can suggest that a steadiness is added to goals and aspirations. They may also suggest that creative endeavors produce viable results. Neptune is at home in Pisces and if we carry this into Neptune in Aries we can pursue our objectives on a personal level and enhance our lives with insight and intuitive feedback.

 

This can be a time to move ahead with our creative endeavors and enhance our objectivity in a realistic manner. We can view clearly when it comes to spirituality with sound perceptions.

TRANSITING PLUTO SQUARE NATAL ASCENDANT

Transiting Pluto squaring your natal Ascendant can be quite challenging. It forces you to question the way you represent yourself to the public. “Do you need to make changes“, is not the question. “You must make changes or life will make those changes for you” is the statement. This is a direction or a turning point. There are no half measures when it comes to Pluto’s energies.

 

Pluto may also make ties to your MC and IC, perhaps conjuncting one of them. This suggests that the time has come or will come or has already passed when you will make significant changes to your path in life, your career choices, your goals and aspirations and perhaps your relationships. It may also have an impact on the home and family. You may move or do major renovations. Family and the home could be changed. Much will depend on these angles and their signs and degrees.

 

Square aspects force you into action and cause great disruption. They are impactful and create changes that perhaps you may not have been prepared for. Often due to the lengthy time that this square will be present in a chart, you may have had inclinations that major changes were on the horizon. Much will depend on how well you are in tune to Pluto’s energies. Some feel its energies 3-5° approaching and until about 2° past direct when the energies are dissipating. It usually takes a couple of years to understand what has unfolded and for life to settle into its new direction.

 

The beauty is that the square’s energies are challenging enough that we are forced into action because we want resolution due to discomfort. You may feel you are at the mercy of life with little control and other times you will know exactly what to do. There will likely be outside responses to what is unfolding because when the Ascendant is involved, things are out in the open. People will see what is transpiring and may also have an impact on what is taking place.

 

This will likely be a challenging time when the aspect becomes direct. However, it is important to realize that change, although disruptive, is what is needed. The time is ripe for it. You may not feel ready, or you may be afraid of what this change will look like but know that it will take you where you need to go. Over time you will appreciate your new situation.

TRANSITING PLUTO SEXTILE NATAL MARS

In general when Pluto is transiting an angle or planet, transformations and regeneration often take place specific to the energies of the planet or houses involved. This can be forceful as there are usually no halfway measures when it comes to the energies of Pluto. When Pluto is involved it usually signals that an ending is approaching and something new is in the making. In many cases fighting the process can be quite futile and it is best to allow change to whatever no longer suits your evolutionary process.

 

This can be related to your occupation, (MC/6th house), your home environment (4th house), finances (2nd house and 8th if joint matters are concerned), partnership business and relationships (7th, 5th houses), etc.

 

Pluto can be rather dramatic and quite forceful causing ego disputes and in some cases violent action. Its objective is to place you in a situation where you can get to where you need to go.

 

Mars is all about action, taking the initiative and moving ahead with your objectives. Mars and Pluto do not make great companions as their energies are similar. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and its secondary ruler is Mars. Aries is ruled by Mars. However, when T Pluto makes a sextile to N Mars the energies can interlink and action is often indicated in a positive manner.

 

Opportunities are often a bi-product of this combination as sextiles imply growth, prospects and potential breaks that do not often reveal themselves. In many cases there are opportunities when it comes to sextiles aspects. It is always suggested that we take advantage of the energies in place and use them to our advantage. Sometimes things just seem to fall into place especially if the elements work well together (eg. fire and air although air can exhaust fire).

 

It is still likely that there may be some hurdles to overcome as at times we will need to fight for what we are trying to achieve. If there are other indicators in the chart that can cause some disruption then adversaries may be part of the picture especially if oppositions are part of the energies. The whole chart always needs to be studied to get the full potential of what lies in place.

 

The sex drive is also quite often enhanced during aspects with Mars and Pluto.

 

Astrology can pinpoint when to move ahead with matters and when to hold back. Timing is critical.

FULL MOON LIBRA APRIL 6

On April 6, 2023, @ 12:34 am EDT we will enjoy the energies of a Full Moon @ 16° Libra. Any individual with planets or angles within 3° either in conjunction, opposition and to a lesser degree square, trine and sextile to this placement will be touched by these energies.

 

During the Full Moon we reap what we sow. The seeds for this Full Moon were sown 6 months ago during the Libra New Moon. If we worked hard to nurture these seeds we will now reap the rewards.

 

Because the Full Moon is in Libra this may focus on important relationships. The desire for love and affection now runs high. This is not just for what our needs might be; it is also focused on what other may need. We may even put other people’s needs ahead of our own. For those with a strong emphasis in Aries this might be what is needed. For those with a strong Libra influence they may want to consider their own needs too. Balance is what is required currently.

 

Harmony and fairness are important factors. Too much emphasis on other peoples’ needs might sway matters at hand. Justice is important. Perhaps you need to be the judge on which way the pendulum swings under this influence.

 

Much will depend on the houses involved and the planets that are being affected as these relate to the areas of life being affected. Oppositions often include other people but in many cases they tend to rule what unfolds and may impose upon you. Conjunctions blend the energies of the planets involved and often suggest an intense period, reconciliation, alignment or perhaps making changes or starting over. Again, much depends on the planets involved, the angles affected and the natal potential in the birth chart. The birth chart tells the story, and this positioning adds to the flavor of the outcome.

 

Although Astrology points us in the appropriate direction, we make the decisions to act or sit back. Make this a memorable time in life by moving in the appropriate direction that most suits the moment.

 

All the best with the energies of this Libra Full Moon.
