SECOND CHANCE

Things happen for a reason or so the story goes. 

 

There is always a reason or lesson behind our experiences. 

 

Some situations are extremely unpleasant but on the other side of the coin, some situations are very pleasant, and we feel fortunate.  Perhaps it is wise not to categorize any of these situations.  Perhaps we simply need to pay attention to the lessons we are learning from any given situation.

 

Sometimes, we make mistakes, and we are given a second chance to learn, correct or adjust and live a better experience because of it. Sometimes, life changes and there are no second chances, but likely change was what was needed and the path forward is far more beneficial than before the lesson was presented.  

 

When life goes smoothly and a fortunate situation comes our way, reflect and recognize this as an opportunity for learning or advancement or to just relax and take life in. 

 

We always have choices. With life lessons, we have the choice to let the situation or opportunity slide by and do nothing with the energy or we can make changes or adjustments and move forward doing things differently due to the lesson learned.

 

Life is full of opportunities and advancement in many different forms.  Pay attention to what life is showing you. Use all energies to the best of your abilities.  Sometimes it is beyond our reach to do what we wish we could do so we need to accept what unfolds and see the opportunities that come from the experience.  Either way, there are second chances available most often in life. Unfortunately, some of us fail to recognize them as such. 

 

Live in the moment, pay close attention to what is and recognize what is right in front of you.

SUN IN GEMINI ASPECTS FOR 2024 PART III

We are reviewing the aspects to Sun in Gemini to give a mini forecast for our Geminian readers. We focused on the square to Neptune on May 20, 2024 which can be read at www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-aspects-for-2024 and the square to Saturn on May 22, 2024 which can be read at www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-aspects-for-2024-part-ii .

 

Today, we will focus on the trine from transiting Pluto. 

 

Pluto is in the very early stages of Aquarius and will move into retrograde from September 2 until November 20 of this year.  You will have plenty of time to transform and regenerate your goals, who you are, your aspirations and objectives and learn to let go of what no longer serves you and begin anew. 

 

The trine is a favorable aspect supplying energy in a positive direction, often opening doors, and helping to move things ahead in an easy manner.  Trines are linked to good fortune, easy flow, and opportunities and should be utilized during their formation in the Zodiac regardless of what planet is involved.  The problem with trines is that the energy seems so easy that at times we just sit back and do little or nothing and waste the time and energy while it is available.

 

Pluto can dictate your life’s direction at this time, letting you know what you need to do on an internal level at first and as you begin the process, it becomes more relevant and lets you know what is expected.  Sometimes the change is not an easy one.  In many cases, something is lost or left behind in order for something new to begin.  This can be revealed in many ways, but much will depend on the houses involved in the equation. 

 

There are no halfway measures about Pluto’s action, and it is best to go with the flow rather than try to swim upstream against the current of change.  As time passes, which in many cases can take as long as two years, you finally see why things went the way they did and you will get an understanding that whatever took place was exactly what needed to happen.  This is particularly true because of the nature of the trine aspect.  Trines are what we wait for, and the Sun is our vital energy and defines our goals in life.

 

Again, happy solar return to our Geminian readers.  Use the energies available to the best of your abilities.

SUN IN GEMINI ASPECTS FOR 2024 PART II

We are reviewing Sun in Gemini aspects for 2024 to give a mini forecast for our Geminian readers. We focused on the square to Neptune yesterday, May 22, 2024 in Part I. www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-aspects-for-2024

 

Today, in Sun in Gemini aspects for 2024, Part II, we will focus on the square from Saturn to those with their Sun in the mid-degrees of Gemini.  Saturn moves from 19° down to 12° and is in retrograde from June 29 to November 15, 2024.  Unlike most planets in their retrograde cycle, Saturn works in a much better way and does not challenge things with as much intensity while in retrograde as it does while in its direct cycle.  In some cases, you can move ahead figuring out what you want to do during its retrograde cycle and realize that this is the time for things to unfold in a favorable fashion.

 

Saturn tests and challenges us and often holds back progress but with the proper intentions and doing what must be done without cutting corners, it forms a solid foundation that often stands the test of time.  Saturn will restrict your plans, create obstructions, challenge your intent, and make you work hard for your results.  Your goals and aspirations may seem to be failing or are somehow being tested. In some cases, those in positions of authority, whether this be a parent (often the father) or a superior, may feel like they are holding you back and you may wonder what you must do to advance your cause.  You may even feel lost within, losing direction and a sense of self during this period.  However, when in retrograde, you might very well find the answers and plan for your next approach which may happen after the retrograde cycle or possibly even during it. 

 

This is a challenging aspect but has the potential to work in a favorable manner. It will, however,  take some time to unfold, moving slower than you might wish.

 

Remember the outcome will be beneficial.

 

Our final Gemini Forecast post will be posted on May 27.

SUN IN GEMINI ASPECTS FOR 2024

(Part One)

 

Over the next few days, we will review the Sun in Gemini aspects for 2024. Today, we will discuss the transits of Neptune. In future posts, we will also discuss the transit of Saturn, both in Pisces making a square to those with their Sun in Gemini in the late and mid degrees.  We will also discuss the transit of Pluto which will be in Aquarius from September 2 until November 20, 2024, when it goes from Aquarius back to Capricorn and then into Aquarius once again.  Those with their Sun in Gemini in the late degrees will be experiencing the trine between their Sun and Pluto.

 

We will begin with those that have their Sun in the late degrees making a square to transiting Neptune.  Much will depend on the houses involved to know what areas of life will become activated.  The square is a challenging aspect which requires action to move through the adversity and learn the lesson at hand.

 

With Neptune, it can be a troublesome time for clarity regarding your path as it may seem unclear, or you may feel disoriented and confused.  You may feel unsure about where life seems to be leading you and how you should be moving forward.  In some cases, it is best to ask for advice from someone you trust or alternatively, it might be better to wait until these energies have passed.  Since Neptune moves at a very slow pace, it may take some time before you feel ready to tackle what has been in place. 

 

Neptune is direct until July 2 when it goes retrograde in the last degree of Pisces.  It remains in its retrograde cycle until December 7 of this year and then returns to its direct motion.  While in the retrograde cycle, it is best to review what path you might want to follow and to wait until it becomes direct once again before taking any type of action beyond the planning stage.  The retrograde cycle is a time of reflection although you may get a clearer picture of to where you might want to move (as in action).  Things are often a little bit clearer during its retrograde cycle.  The energies of a square are challenging to say the least but irritating enough to push us into action to alleviate the circumstances.  These energies push you to move beyond the irritating force that is often brought on by the square aspect.

 

Part II will be posted on May 23 and Part III will be posted on May 27, 2024.

FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS

On May 23, 2024, we will be experiencing the Full Moon in the sign of Sagittarius at 2° at 9:53 a.m. EDT. 

 

Those individuals that have planets especially by conjunction or opposition to this placement in their natal charts will be affected by this, the Sagittarius Full Moon.  You can give yourself a 3° orb of influence so planets 0° to 4 ° in Sagittarius or 0 to 4° in Gemini and back to the 29 ° of Taurus and Scorpio will have an impact. 

 

This Full Moon brings to focus the higher principles of life.  It can deal with your life’s philosophy, your religious outlook, your spiritual beliefs and the education of life that begins with your attitude about what the plan is for you.  The house position along with the planets or angles in question will play significant roles with the energies available.  The house positions, as the Full Moon has the Sun and Moon in opposition, will determine the areas of life involved and the planetary energies or the angle (if this is part of the picture) will combine and enhance the equation.

 

The Full Moon speaks about what began approximately 6 months ago and is now reaching its culmination point.  What started at that time, depending on the efforts used will now either enhance your life or will need to be revised or let go of in order for your to advance in life. 

 

If connected to the MC angle, for example, this may speak directly about goals and achievements especially related to your occupation and how this affects your home life and family.  If on the Ascendant, for example, this will deal primarily with a personal connection and have something to do with a relationship of importance, often the partner.  We do not have enough space or time here to incorporate all the other potentials. 

 

Plute, the planet of regeneration and transformation, is in the sign of Aquarius and currently (May 2024) is around 2°, making a sextile to the positioning of the Full Moon.  Pluto is currently in its retrograde cycle and turns direct on October 12, 2024.  During its retrograde cycle, Pluto’s energies are not working to their full capacity.  After the October date when Plut turns direct again, its energies are working to their full capacity.  During the retrograde cycle, this may be a time of regeneration but may be from a deep and personal perspective.  Once it goes direct, this may be the time when you begin to see how your life was transformed and what Pluto’s objectives might have been.

 

The emotional makeup is part of the picture, and with a Sagittarius perspective, you might believe or work towards making things better and there is a potential that you will find what you are wanting to find.  Sagittarius is very optimistic in its approach to life and looks to expand and make things better over time by looking at things from a realistic approach and knowing that the mind’s focus is of extreme importance.

 

The sextile from Pluto to this Lunar placement speaks of opportunities and is considered a favorable aspect which often suggests that things could fall directly in your hands, although it is always suggested that we work towards making things happen to our advantage and not just wait for them to happen.  Sometimes without working at our hopes and wishes, things do not work as favorably as they otherwise could have.  These energies are quite positive and should be used accordingly. 

 

In a nutshell, with the Full Moon in Sagittarius, work towards improvement both emotionally and physically. Be positive and take advantage of the opportunities at hand.

 

To get a better picture of how things might unfold in your personal life, you might wish to have a full chart prepared.

 

Wishing those affected by this Full Moon all the best. Move forward with a positive approach.

CURRENT INNER PLANT TRANSITS

We normally do not write too much about the transits of the inner planets, but the upcoming formation is of interest to those with their Sun in the early degrees of Gemini or in the late degrees of Taurus. Here is the current inner plant transits.

 

On May 18, the Sun and Jupiter align as do Venus and Uranus.  This sounds very positive.  The Sun and Jupiter together suggest growth and added potential especially related to goals and aspirations.  In many ways this alignment, which by the way is a conjunction, is the most powerful of the aspects, and places great emphasis on our inner journey and what we have learned thus far and in particular as of late.  Although short lived, it should prove to be an expansive, energetic time for those experiencing these configurations in their chart.  This formation is in place for the duration of May 15 to the 25 of 2024.

 

On May 20, the Sun moves into the sign of Gemini, and we posted on this yesterday www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-4 and we will follow with Gemini’s 2024 transits in the next few Astrology posts.  It will be in effect along with the Conjunction of the Sun/Jupiter alignment just discussed.  Take into close consideration where this positioning takes place in your chart if you have a planet or angle near these degrees.  The house or angle will define the areas of life involved.

 

We will also be having a Full Moon on May 23.  Full Moon energies’ are an indication of the end of the work carried forward prior to this energy.  It is known as the culmination point and the harvest of the efforts put into whatever was started some six months ago when the New Moon was in the same sign.  As usual, we will also be writing a post on the emphasis of the Full Moon’s position in an upcoming post next week.

 

During this same period, Venus and Jupiter will linked up creating a conjunction at 29° of Taurus.  Together, Venus and Jupiter often indicate a time of fortunate conditions and favorable outcomes.  Love and affection may be part of the picture and a time of sharing life with others is also indicated.  Check to see this position in your natal chart if you have planets coming into play in the 29° of Taurus or in close proximity thereto. 

 

One thing that we didn’t mention earlier with the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on May 18, this often suggests that the unexpected can unfold moving you in a direction that is proper for your evolution and life’s path.  It can be under unusual circumstances and may come out of nowhere.  Expect the unexpected.

 

Finally, Jupiter also enters Gemini on May 26.  This is quite the favorable positioning as well.  It speaks of growth, higher education on some level, if not through the schooling of life, then through actual continued education.  This is a time of great learning and expansion.  If aligned with the Sun or natal Jupiter or even the Ascendant, it can speak of vital growth and healthier conditions.  Much of course will be determined by the natal potential found in the birth chart.  The Natal chart must always be taken into consideration as it is an outline of our life’s path and our most inner evolution along with many other important factors.  A natal chart is the first step in understanding our stay here on earth.

 

Enjoy the energies of these inner planet connections if they are in your chart.

SUN IN GEMINI

The Sun moves from Taurus, a fixed earth sign, into Gemini, a mutable air sign, on May 20, 2024.  Gemini is said to be one of the most curious signs of the Zodiac.  It is naturally ruled by Mercury, the planet of the mind, and these individuals need constant mental stimulation for life to have meaning to them.  They get bored easily and as children need constant attention or many toys to capture their attention. 

 

Gemini individuals are changeable, versatile, and adaptable.  They can fit into almost any situation and love conversation and intellectual interchange.  They have an interest in learning, and many can have an education that surpasses the norm.  Those that do not fit into this category may have left their schooling early because of a lack of interest.  Gemini needs to focus their attention and would do well if they could only focus on one thing at a time and then finish what they started.

 

They know a little about many subjects and love teaching, learning, and studying.  Most have many acquaintances.  Many have friends from all walks of life.  They love interchange and interaction that stimulates their gathering of information and in order to find out what is going on within their environment.  Gemini loves adventure and wants to explore what life offers.  Many love the great outdoors and sports and participate in anything that involves movement.

 

This post will likely attract many Gemini individuals because they are inquisitive and want to learn about themselves almost as much as they love to learn about others.  Some are prone to gossip while others listen well to what is shared with them.  If someone needs their help, Geminians may not be the most emotionally supportive, but they will come up with ideas that can help solve many problems.

 

We wrote a post earlier about the influence of planets entering the final degree of Taurus. At a later date, as the planets go into Gemini, we will go into detail about some of these planets as the planets  interact with the ever engaging sign of Gemini.

 

Happy solar return to our Gemini readers.
