UNASPECTED PLANET IN A NATAL CHART

In most natal charts, each planet makes aspects to other planets or to the angles in the chart.  When we speak in terms of aspected or unaspected planets, we are referring to the natal planets and not the transiting or progressed planets. 

An unaspected planet in the natal chart is a planet which receives no aspects from any other planets and is not aspecting any of the angles either (ASC,DC, MC or IC).  This lonely planet does not mix with the rest of the chart and operates totally on its own energies.

This is such a rare occurrence, we could not find an example.

When deciphering the influence of a planet that has no aspects and is giving no aspects, it is important to note that it can operate in two different ways.  It may express its energies in a dynamic manner without any other mitigating factors due to its unaided nature.  It is important to look at the planet, its house position and the sign it is in as these combined represent its expression.  Nothing about its energies is hidden or concealed and it has full expression.  In contrast, the energies of the planet in question may remain dormant and do not express themselves at all.

For example, those with Mercury unaspected in the natal chart may have a challenging time when it comes to communication or self-expression.  This may be particularly so if for example Mercury was in the sign Capricorn and in the twelfth house, although this individual might find expression through self-exploration or mystical pursuits; a thorough study of these pursuits and a very realistic approach would be necessary however. 

If Venus were unaspected, then the expression of love may be cut off, or in contrast they may seek out love as an expression that is most valid to whom they are.

In general people who have an unaspected planet in the natal chart will have to assert a lot of vigor getting the energy force and expression of that planet out into the open.  This is not an easy quest although during times of a strong transit or when they meet an overly assertive person, who seem to have the missing qualities that are stifled in the chart individual, they can move forward into a greater degree of self-expression.  This would not come without challenging the situation, however, and making a strong effort to achieve what they set out to do.  It would not come easy.

DOORS

There can be many twists and turns in our life’s journey.  We venture forth with great enthusiasm and with this enthusiasm we can push through adversity and challenging conditions as we strive for knowledge and more. 

We will occasionally find ourselves confronted with a situation that appears to be insurmountable but with patience and an open mind we will find that a will door open where previously none existed.

These new doors are often found when we have reached our wits-end and simply let go.  We have finally released and out of nowhere there is a new opportunity…..apparently materializing out of nowhere, the perfect resolution is presented. 

Through release these opportunities appear.  We push until there is nothing more to do; we let go and finally allow our pure life force to take control (sometimes without conscious understanding of this).

There is always a doorway waiting to be found and sometimes we are so busy and focused on looking for it, we cannot see it. 

Searching and wanting implies that we are without and are lacking in life.  This energy attracts more doing without and lacking.  Remember, our focus is the key and we only get what we are focused on.

Opening the door by “letting go” and “letting life” seems far too simple.  As a result, rarely do many of us take that route.  We always think that acceptance is giving up.  Allowing is not giving up or giving in.  It is knowing that there is an energy much greater than that of an earth-bound individual stuck in their mental mind.  Letting go and having faith allows our higher energies to flow.

Stop fighting the process.  Release your anxiety and worry.  Life always goes as it should, even when it seems as though it isn’t.  You will always be presented with the right door and it will open if you just allow it to.  Let this door reveal itself and simply be.

MOST ASPECTED PLANET IN AN ASTROLOGY CHART

When we review a natal chart it is important to consider a planet which has at least 5 or 6 major aspects linked to it.  This planet is strengthened or exaggerated in its expression due to all these connections.  It is important to see which houses are interconnected to this planet as well as the house that it is found in.  The house that this most aspected planet is located in will not be the main reference area of life.  The energies are released from this house and the other areas of life represented by the houses the other planets are found in will find emphasized expression due to the most aspected planet’s influence.  The house the most aspected planet rules is important as well, but the flow of all these other energies add intensity and can be used to help with the definition of the release of energies into the other areas of life involved.

Not only are the houses representative of the flow of energies, we must also includes the angles in the chart, especially the Ascendant and the Midheaven.  If, for example, the Sun was conjunct the MC by a very tight aspect, its energies of drive and ambition would be linked to moving ahead within the occupation or career.  If Saturn were also in close opposition to this placement then there might be challenges from other individual with moving forward or obstacles standing in the way of progress.  Things might be delayed or we might expect more duties and responsibilities as we move towards the objectives set in place within our occupation.  Some of the challenges experienced might be linked to family and our roots if Saturn was found in the fourth house (with our example).

Going one step further let’s say that Jupiter and Venus were conjunct in the sixth house and made trines to this position of the Sun linked to the MC.  This would help with the situation and may suggest that the working conditions and co-workers would help facilitate growth and good fortune with the plans or push that might be associated with our occupation. 

Taking it one step further let’s say that Uranus was in square to this elevated position of the Sun with the MC.  Uranus would certainly add to the unique potential of this positioning and might bring opportunities in unexpected manners, but would cause us to work towards positive results.  Uranus might make us appear to be somewhat of a bohemian in our approach or push us into fields associated with electronics or scientific avenues.  Uranus would certainly require that we push for something unique and perhaps unusual or make us approach this occupational direction from a different point of view. 

Going one step further if Mercury was involved adding a sextile to the Sun/MC position, our mind would be well equipped and we might have an advantage because of our ability to understand detail or make clear decisions that would affect our career and working potential.  Mercury might also figure into the equation, making a sextile to the Jupiter/Venus conjunction in the sixth house, providing analysis and the ability to delineate any problems within the working environment.

As you can see this whole process would certainly add to the flavour of our initial Sun/MC conjunction.  All of these aspects will add insight and energies when we look deeper at this initial conjunction and also make this positioning very important in the Astrology chart.

FULL MOON - AUGUST 26 2018

This will be a busy Full Moon cycle lasting approximately one month; it begins on August 26, 2018 at 7:58 a.m. EDT.  The Full Moon will be in the sign of Pisces at 3 degrees. 

This Full Moon placement will forms a Yod pattern with the focal point being the transiting North Node.  The Sun is also part of a Grand Earth Trine with Saturn and Uranus and the Moon will be the focal point of a kite formation, making sextiles to Uranus and Saturn.  I know ..a lot of Astrology mumbo-jumbo but many of my Astrology students will understand this.

A Full Moon often speaks of a culmination of events predating this period.  This is a time to harvest the seeds we planted earlier in the garden of life.  This Astrologer has found that it often speaks of what was “planted” when we experienced the New Moon in the same sign, some six months ago.  In this case, it would have been the new Moon in Pisces (March 17, 2018).  The Full Moon is the time when we should review what we put in motion at that time and either forge ahead further with these goals or let go and release what will not work. 

Pisces may deal with mystical undertakings, or taking care of someone who needs our assistance, as Pisces often produces a savior energy.  Much will now depend on if you have any planet (particularly by conjunction, square or opposition) to this 3 degrees of Pisces.

Yods often speak of turning points in life.  Under the influence of a Yod we have to carry out a mental evaluation and make an adjustment.  This may first appear as a fated turn of events and we learn something valuable from previous experiences.  Ultimately, the Yod energies can lead to spiritual awareness. 

Saturn can speak of serious confrontations sometimes with others but often with our self.  This can be a time of re-evaluation of life plans from an emotional perspective due to the influence of the Moon and the North Node.  We are often pointed in the direction that is best for us at this time and can sometimes be brought on through someone coming into our life and helping us along the way.  Saturn wants to formulate a plan of direction that will, over time, create a solid foundation and the Moon often speaks of a change of direction and always adds a certain amount of emotional flair to any situation.  The North Node is our path to follow in life.

The Grand Earth Trine suggests that opportunities are at hand with earthly matters.  This could relate to business opportunities, favorable conditions within the working environment, and/or prospects for advancement in a material sense.  The problem with a Grand Trines is that sometimes they lack motivation.  Things seem extremely easy and we tend to put little effort into anything.  What the Moon does in the kite formation is provide the necessary push to forge ahead and it helps us to push a little towards these opportunities.  Grand Trines can stagnate things while Kites push for advancement in the element of the Grand Trine.

This seems like a good time to make personal changes, to move ahead with any material plans that you have been working on and to make spiritual progress while maneuvering through life events.  Take advantage of these energies as there are many opportunities at hand.  This combination does not happen often.

LIFE AND LOVE

We are individual and yet one, co-existing within the framework of our consciousness, and always reaching to reconnect with our pure essence.   If we are all connected, should we not do our utmost to live in harmony with all living things?

As we mature into ourselves and reach further for our ultimate “being”, we build on this unity with the whole.  We are a spiritual energy dwelling momentarily in an earthly vehicle.  We are not our bodies.  We are not our thoughts.  We are eternal energy. 

We explore to learn.  We are linked to coordinate a universal, pure love.

Our essence also resonates on an internal level but reveals its self through an ongoing process only to those that are ready to experience its existence.  Remaining open to this eventual awakening, releases our bondage to the main focus of material concerns.  It is within our grasp to realize our true “being” and to help facilitate the ongoing awakening that is taking hold in our world.  We are the facilitators of peace; we are the facilitators of love.

We can open our hearts and radiate the love that is our core.  By doing so, we awaken the same in others.  We are not segregated or separate from each other.  We all share this life regardless of distance and we are molding a future for the next generation.

We are the facilitators and the manufactures of peace and love, regardless of our earth’s condition and what we experience through media and other external influences.  It is not hopeless unless you allow this expression to exist.  These are the early days of an evolution.  You are the pioneer.

Our purpose in this life is to keep the process moving forward regardless of obstruction and challenges that lie before us.  We push forward even in the face of adversity and regardless of the current conditions that exist.  These actually push us to work harder.

Live as an example and be the light for others.  Find your true essence simply by living through love. 

You are the light.  We are the light.  This is our essence and our purpose.  Live it; be it and above all else, believe!

SUN IN VIRGO, 2018

The Sun moves into the meticulous earth sign Virgo just before midnight (EDT) on August 23, 2018. 

Virgo is focused on duty and responsibility as well as service rendered.  Virgos wants to do things just right, have a ridged routine, are disciplined in their actions and seeks to improve on things.  Virgo enjoys order and needs things to be in their proper place. 

Ask a Virgo for their help and they will make sure that you get all the details, move along with a sense of direction and find a resolution to any problems by solving them in a methodical and structured manner.

Those with their Sun in the early degree of Virgo will be experiencing the transit of Saturn which is in Capricorn at two degrees (August 24).  Saturn will be making a trine to their Sun.  If you have your Sun in Virgo at approximately five degrees, you will experience this trine right to the end of 2018.  This trine will assist you in earth type matters, such as getting your bills in order, correcting any obstructions in the working environment and correlating any business material that needs to be put in order. 

You may find under this influence that you can work well within the organization and may even get recognition for your hard work and disciplined action.  The houses where Saturn and your Sun are located in will play a big part in defining what areas of life will be affected.  Use this time to get things in order.

Those with their Sun in the mid-teens to early 20 degree mark of Virgo in their birth chart will have the transit of Pluto which will be in Capricorn and making a trine to their Sun throughout the rest of 2018, all of 2019 and beyond.  This is a long transit.  Pluto’s energies want us to go below the surface and to bring anything that needs to surface out where it can be dealt with accordingly.  Pluto is sometimes affiliated with the shadow side of things and will transform and regenerate that which needs to be changed or transformed.  This could include fears that have been ignored or pushed aside for one reason or another.  They will now under this influence be dealt with in a serious manner.  These issues should be faced and then basically let go of in order for something new to take their place in a more positive and reaffirming manner.  Pluto tears things down so that things can be rebuilt.  Some things will perish if this is what is called for. 

Take a look at the house positions of transiting Pluto and your natal Sun to see which areas of life are being rebuilt and converted into something more appropriate for what is required at this time.  Anything that needs to be torn down or repaired will not escape the energies of Pluto.  Virgo will make sure things are done correctly and no steps will be skipped.

Enjoy these energies.  Acknowledge that these changes are beneficial, although they may not be simple.  Life as you know it will most likely be transformed significantly and restructured in such a way that after the process has passed by, an ending of sorts will have taken place if Pluto is involved and life will be more structured and solidified if Saturn is involved. 

Things will not look the same as they were but as you settle into the changes that take place, you will find that they were all positive although possibility challenging (depends how hard you resist).  Perhaps you will fight your way through these challenges or perhaps you may allow the events to unfold and you will enjoy the ride; however you handle therse energies, you will adapt to what is slowly manifesting.
