The Movement

Is the world changing? Is your world changing? Do you feel it? Are you part of it? This is the initiation of your new moment; the start! Although there are many others who are on this path, your change is unique and one unto itself. You are, however, certainly part of the whole and a member of the grand scheme. Take a close look. Realize that it has begun, and yes, you are part of it. You cannot question the change as it has been burning inside you all your life. The time has come for you to move beyond any limitation you may have allowed to exist in the past.

Belief structures begin with you and you hold the key to their existence. The process is already activated and you have been brought here to do your part. What is your part? Why are you here? Be patient my friend, the door is opening slowly. In the beginning, you only get glimpses-- partial views--fleeting movements, but as time progresses, you move forward with a fuller picture.

This awakening can begin at any age. Some are born to it; others develop into it. Some awaken slowly; others awaken immediately. We all move at our own rate. We all come together and work as a unit, with one clear focus. It is simple and it is pure. It begins with Love-- what else can it be. This has to be the starting point as this is the core, the foundation. The projection of this one pure source opens the door.

Love is beyond all measure and cannot be scrutinized. It cannot falter and it never ends. Love is pure and cannot be filtered. The essence of love has no boundaries and encompasses everything. Even impurity can be transformed through the spirit of love. Nothing is untouchable and everything is within loves reach.

Allow the transformation to take hold by believing without cause for belief. It just is, pure and simple. Let love lead you and begin the conversion. Have faith that you belong, that you are part of the grand picture, regardless of past endeavours, regardless of belief, regardless of the pain you have endured. Open up to your source and let love radiate first within you and then in an outward motion to everything that surrounds you. You do not have to do anything just give yourself to this single purpose. You cannot fail! You will not be judged! Now is your time to believe, to accept and to know.

Moon in Aries

The Moon in Astrology is an important aspect in the Natal Chart. It expresses the emotional makeup of the individual and the sign it is in and the aspects to it signify how well the emotions are controlled and how well they are expressed. There are signs that are stronger or more powerful for the Moon’s placement and the sign position will signify the emotional interaction between people. We will be discussing the Moon placement in Aries, but we will not be going into the different expressions that the emotional makeup can take through aspects to other planets.

With the Moon in Aries or the Moon in the first house (the first house is ruled by Aries) there is a degree of impatience with many issues in life, especially those that pertain directly to the Moon in Aries individual. They generally know what they want, how to get it and very little can stop them in achieving their objectives. Their own emotional needs come first and this can make them somewhat selfish with their intentions. There is an inherent need for acting out and speaking in a straight forward manner. These individuals express their needs precisely -- just what it is that they need. This is very apparent and they will be persistent and stick to their own personal goals through thick or thin. In the end, they usually get what they want.

This is not a soft placement for the Moon and when faced with adversity, they will act out aggressively and fight for what they believe is their right. They take things personally and if you intentionally hurt them emotionally, initially they might reach out in an aggressive form. Once the smoke settles, however, they forget fairly easily and are ready to begin a new, with vigor and enthusiasm. They generally believe in themselves and have inner fortitude but little staying power.

Moon in Aries people are usually self-confident and somewhat abrasive and their temperament varies, with plenty of ups and downs. They are ruled by their own emotional needs, not others. Weaker personalities will be swallowed up alive by Moon in Aries personalities. If you were threatened, these individuals will be the first to come to your rescue and defend you in almost any situation. They could be considered fearless, and do not back down from confrontation.

Discord is well known by these individuals and many grew up in a family circle where they had to fight for their rights and to be noticed. The home front was somewhat of a battle field and this accounts for their nature. They know what they want and how to get it, and will push their way through in order to come out on top.

Moving Forward

Throughout our lives, we reach junctions where we confront our own shortcomings and overcome obstacles placed before us. It is important to understand that in order to move forward in our life’s pursuit, we must take some responsibility for the situations that occur. In some circumstances, other people seem to force issues down our throats and we must contend with them in our own terms. Life often throws curve balls at the most inappropriate time and we are forced to make adjustments and sometimes on a large scale.

We have to learn to roll with the punches, pick up the pieces and move on. We have to let go of hurt and blame in order to overcome. This may be very difficult, but possible if you were to look at life from a broader scope with the understanding that life’s events, particularly the prime events, are sometimes fateful and out of our control. The purpose of such events is to force individuals into looking and going deeper into the meaning of their life. Sometimes, it takes drastic measures to break down the impenetrable wall that people put up as a protective barrier.

Sometimes events of magnitude occur to make us aware of the frailties of life and to bring us to the understanding that life is precious and not to be taken for granted. There will be times when loved ones leave us, sometimes completely unexpectedly, and we have to find a way to carry on and move forward with our lives. Life seems unfair and even unjust when these incidents confront our otherwise relatively passive existence, but moving forward with the knowledge that life does carry on is paramount and a step that must be taken.

Live within the framework of understanding, knowing that life will present you with unwelcomed events from time to time. Know, however, that through the through processes that take time mental anguish eventually resolves unless we put up a wall of resistance to healing. With acceptance, we do mend. Find that place within that offers forgiveness, that offers hope and that provides you with serenity and peace. Move forward knowing that the objective in life is to grow spiritually from all experience, regardless of its nature. There is something good in everything; you just have to dig deep enough to find the true purpose.

THE LAST DAYS

As you move through with experience and elevate yourself in life, what do you want to be remembered for? How will others recall the experience of your life and the impact you had on them? These are all important questions and you should dig deep and carefully consider what you might be leaving behind when this earthly experience is complete.

Regardless of age, our lives could come to an abrupt end at any moment, when we least expecting it. That is usually how things work, is it not? You can spend your life worrying about potential shortcomings and they may surface, but usually they just pass by with little impact. You can, however, now take an honest look at how you have been living your life to date. The past is insignificant in that it is gone and you cannot change what has transpired, but you can change what will be.

Death is inevitable and most likely at that point we will review our life. What do you want to leave behind? How will others remember you and what pertinent knowledge can be passed on so that you may leave an imprint on someone’s life? You may need to ask yourself these questions and perhaps upon careful and honest analysis, make some alterations so that you can leave behind something relevant, something meaningful and perhaps even something enlightening.

You can begin today and initiate the adjustments for the new you. It is not important about what others may think of the transformations that may begin to surface. What others think is nowhere near as important as what you think and how you view yourself. The supreme guidance that is always present comes from within and suggests alternatives to everyday living. It is up to you to pay heed and replace what no longer serves you well with something that you can be proud of.

It is true; you can start now if you make that mental decision, offering yourself to the greater potential that rests within us all. You can and will move forward with this knowledge, that knowledge being, that we are all capable of making necessary adjustments to our lives at any moment, at anytime and anywhere. It is up to you to make the change, to awaken to your highest ideal and to begin now.

The Sextile in Astrology

The sextile is considered a major aspect although the orb (degree between two planets) is considerably less than the other major aspects in Astrology. The conjunction, trine, square and opposition are all considered major aspects and most Astrologers give these aspects a maximum of 7-10 degree orb. The sextile usually has an orb of influence of a maximum of up to 5-7 degrees. When planets are in orb, they influence one another. The sextile aspect is represented by two planets or significant points in the chart that are between 53 to 67 degrees apart. The closer they are to being direct, (60 degrees for a sextile), the stronger the affect it has in the Chart.

The sextile is similar in meaning to the trine, in that is suggests an easy flow, and the opportunity to make something come together. It is an aspect of opportunity and unlike the trine, you usually have to get the momentum moving through your own efforts. The trine seems to flow without much effort or input. The sextile, as well as the trine, usually implies gratification and an aspiration towards a harmonious outcome.

Planets in sextile suggest occasions to harmonize the energies of each planet with one another, creating an opportunity aimed towards a favourable conclusion. With a sustained effort, it is quite possible to make the most of this aspect. Depending on the planets involved, for example Pluto in sextile to Venus, the potential for higher earnings and the amalgamation of large sums of money, particularly if they are located in the eighth house (the house of big business and joint finances as well as inheritance) and the tenth house (the house of status in life, occupation and standing in the community) have a higher percentage of probability, than if this aspect was a square.

As suggested, sextiles are aspects of opportunity, sometimes these opportunities fall into one’s lap and other times one needs to give a little push to make things happen. In most Natal (birth) Charts, there are sextiles, usually several. Astrology can point the way by offering insight into the potential abilities available through the utilization of these sextiles. Your Natal Chart comes to life when deciphered using sound Astrological techniques.

A Life of Giving

Do you ever sit and ponder your true purpose? The answer is so simple, (not to say that there is not more than one complete answer), but if you follow this simple suggestion, you can move forward knowing that you have at least one foot on the correct path.

Life is about giving. This is the key and it must be without any thought of return-- just giving without measure. It is that simple and if you open your heart to this simple truth, you are well on your way to your life’s purpose. You are the instrument. You are the example. You are the light.

It is plain and simple. That is it. There is nothing more, nothing less. This is the starting point. Enjoy your journey with purpose!

The Quintile in an Astrology Chart

The quintile is an Astrological aspect that is expressed through a specific style the individual practices. This style is linked to creativity and fosters a distinctive ability to express a certain uniqueness in their work. The quintile is linked to the mind and has an affinity with the planet Mercury, in that these individuals impose their ideas on the outside world, either through the written word or some creative outlet. It is said that individuals with several quintiles (aspects 72 degrees apart) or bi-quintiles (144 degrees apart) have a unique style that distinguishes them from others.

There is an obsessional quality linking the work these people do together with the amount of time they spend on work. They need to master this quality, and will pursue their obsession until it is perfect; however, they believe it never will be. This talent is uncommon in that it is not something that is learned from outside sources. There is an innate quality to their particular interest which is not shared by the common person. Some believe that this is a gift and this gift is exceptional in that it is not taught. Many Astrologers consider quintiles to be a God given talent experienced only by very few.

Many charts have two possibly even three such aspects. If your chart has three or more, this would apply to you. If your Progressed Chart has several quintiles and bi-quintiles, it could be a creativity that is being developed. The development of this creative flair, however, is not something that is taught in general terms. It is something being developed through spiritual connections so that it can be used for the benefit of others.

Normal orbs (allowable extended degrees between planets to form aspects) of the traditional aspects used in Astrology usually are between 3 to 5 degrees. Many Astrologers use a much wider orb. The quintile should only be within one degree of exact. The orb is very tight and only in effect when within these guidelines.

When determining the effects of these unique aspects, one must first consider the natal potential along with the nodal positions before analyzing quintiles and bi-quintiles. As suggested, quintiles are God given talents not taught through experience, and when you take into consideration all of the above, a clearer picture begins to emerge.

Commission the preparation of a chart to find out the special qualities that might surface in your chart. All charts have special qualities whether that be by quintiles or otherwise. Your chart is unique unto itself and there are few charts that link together perfectly as we are all born at different times and on different days and in different countries. Delve deeper into your life and discover yourself through Astrology, one of many tools used in the modern day developmental awakening.
