NEW YEAR’S BLESSINGS



Yet another year has comes to a close.  We can reflect on the many lessons that 2019 has taught us and then close the chapter.  The events of 2019 are now behind us and there is no need to bring forward into 2020 anything but the knowledge from the lessons learned.  Close the chapter and turn to the blank pages of 2020. 

May you fill these pages with the light of your inner peace, radiant love and choice of happiness.

Peace is something that you can only experience through conscious decision.  May you be filled with enough faith in the process that you have no choice but to know the peace you deserve.

May you love yourself fully and completely.  As you bask in your self-love, allow it to spills over and touches each and every person that shares this journey with you.

As mentioned happiness is a choice.  It is experienced in the journey not obtained in reaching the destination.  Enjoy each step whether it challenges you or presents you with rest.

May you experience life lessons without resistance for it is in experiencing these lessons that we are pushed to learn and grow.  The experience of stress only comes when we fight the lessons presented to us.  May you welcome your lessons with open arms and grow without resistance.  This…..no resistance….is what will help to keep your path smooth.  

With much love and appreciation to each and every one of you…….

HAPPY NEW YEAR from both of us at Holm Astrology!

MINI FORECAST FOR THOSE WITH THEIR SUN IN CAPRICORN (2019-2020) (SUN CONJUNCT JUPITER AND SATURN)



As you can imagine there would be a great difference between the Sun conjunct Jupiter and the Sun conjunct Saturn. 

Jupiter will be having its own effects for those with their Sun in the early to mid-degrees of Capricorn, (from 0 to about 17-18 degrees Capricorn).  This conjunct will begin in early December and last until mid-February of 2020.

Of course, you will have to look to see if there are other modifying transiting planetary influences in the chart to get a full picture of what this conjunction of Jupiter and the Sun would mean in your particular case.  Jupiter would tend to bring forth opportunities and growth particularly in areas related to goals in life.  This could include occupation, structural ideologies and plans set forth that would generate development over the long haul.  Capricorn knows that it takes time and energy to achieve objectives if you want something feasible and structurally sound.

Jupiter has a tendency for exaggeration and is often associated with “the big plan” and sometimes we overestimate what is potentially available to us.  However the higher we aim in many cases the higher we attain, so sometimes it is okay to have lofty ideas in place when Jupiter is part of the process.

Some individuals will seek out new adventures through travel, although in many cases a place that has familiarity to it might be more pleasing than somewhere completely foreign to us, (for those with their Sun in Capricorn).

When Jupiter meets up with Saturn, (we should also mention its connection with Pluto for those with their Sun in Capricorn in these degrees), the story changes direction.  Along with the desire to expand on plans and objectives, these Capricorn individuals may now encounter some restriction and potential worries about possible outcomes.  They may experience transformations to their plans and setbacks or time restrictions due to these other energies entering into the picture.  Their focus will almost certainly be too lofty while at the same time too restrictive. Finding a happy medium is what will be required.

Saturn and Pluto together pack a mighty punch and this combination will be intensified in January and February of 2020.  Jupiter sits on the edge of influence of both these giants in our solar system in early March and then weans off from the influence of Saturn but stays strong with Pluto from March to November/December of 2020.  The influence of Pluto will be one of transformation to goals and aspirations and potentially their path in life.  At the same time, this will be influencing Capricorn individuals’ inner self and the changes they will want to address as time goes by.  This is a powerful energy and will have profound influences well into the 2020 year ahead.

NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE DECEMBER 26 2019



This Solar Eclipse begins on December 25 at 9:29 p.m EST or Dec 26 at 02:29 a.m. UCT and is finished at 3: 05 a.m. EST or 08:05 a.m. UCT on December 26.  According to TimeAndDate.com “The annular phase of this solar eclipse is visible from Saudi Arabia, Oman, southern India, and parts of Indonesia, weather permitting. In most of Asia, parts of North/East Africa, and North/West Australia, people can see a partial eclipse.”  We in Ontario will not be able to see this eclipse. 

The new Moon is on December 26, 2019 at 12:15 a.m. EST. 

The New Moon/Solar Eclipse is at 4 degrees in the sign of Capricorn.  It is well aspected by Jupiter which is conjunct this degree and Uranus which is trine this degree.  As a result, this sounds quite favourable.

This is a cardinal position and those with their Sun in Capricorn in the early degrees as well as those with their Sun in Cancer in the early degrees will have this placement in conjunction and in opposition respectively in their charts.  Those with their Sun in the early degrees of Aries and Libra will have this position square to the eclipse degree.  We could go deeper and discuss each sign but for this post we will focus on the Cardinal degrees.

The energies of a New Moons and Solar Eclipses offer up opportunities to make changes in your life.  You can rid yourself of anything that no longer suits your path and formulate a new focus, if so desired, to advance your cause or goals. 

Some will experience turmoil and harder lessons at this time which over time have the potential to foster growth and expansion.  Although havoc is often accompanied with the energies of a Solar Eclipse, they do create positive change.  Those individuals with their Sun square to this position, although somewhat challenging, you will want to push your way through the adversity and use this as an opportunity to apply useful and practical solutions to any problems that may need dealing with.  It might be time for a fresh start.

Although these energies might be a little challenging especially if you also have a hard aspect with the upcoming Saturn/Pluto conjunction taking hold in January/February, 2020, you can use these energies to go after what is important to you.  Capricorn always implies hard work and dedication but with the conjunction to Jupiter, good fortune and opportunities can certainly be part of the picture for the upcoming period in your life.  Your focus should be on long term goals, and you shouldn’t expect things to happen quickly although they just might with the unpredictability of transiting Uranus making a trine to this position.

Uranus fosters needed change and opens doors to new perceptions and sometimes enlightenment due to the change of direction that it promotes.  It can happen in unusual ways or at unexpected times.  You might not think you are ready for what it proposes, but often the change it represents is long overdue.  It may take some time to settle into the changes that have potential to unfold but as you move ahead on your path you will see how fortunate this period actually was. 

Enjoy this gift and make the most out of the opportunities at hand.  Life will reward you for your perseverance and calculated advancement.

SUN IN CAPRICORN ON DECEMBER 23 2019



On December 21 2019, the Sun moves into the sign of Capricorn.  Those with this placement of their Sun will experience a lot of conjunctions depending on the degree of their Sun sign for parts of this upcoming year. 

Mercury moves into Capricorn on December 30, 2019 through until January 16, 2020. 

Mars goes into Capricorn on February 17, 2020. 

Jupiter went into Capricorn on December 3, 2019 and will remain there until December, 2020 and as a result will touch all Sun in Capricorn individuals at some point over the next 12 months. 

Saturn remains in Capricorn until March, 2020 and Pluto will also remain in Capricorn for several years to come.

As you can see those with their Sun in Capricorn will have many planets making conjunctions to their Sun over the next year.  Check an ephemeris to see where these planets are by degree and when they will make the conjunctions in your chart.  The house where the Sun is located natally in a Capricornian’s chart will be the area of life which will have the most direct influence. 

Houses are areas of life and the Sun has to do with our goals and life’s path as well as our inner self.  Conjunctions merge the energies of the Sun and the planets involved and their energies focus as one.  You will also need to have a look at how the Sun is aspected in your natal chart, as the aspects it receives from other planets in the natal chart will also be factored into the equation when deciphering the meanings of these current day (transiting) conjunctions.

Those with their Sun in Capricorn have an inner need to advance and are usually willing to go to great lengths to see their goals through to fruition.  They are achievers, often with strong will power and determination.  This is what assists them up that ladder of success. 

Those individuals that are unwilling to do the foundation work will not achieve as much as they could.  Capricorn individuals cannot skip any steps in any process, and in many cases, they are always looking ahead to the next step towards that ultimate goal.  Perseverance is strong and they need a clear path forward in order to achieve their goals.  They won’t speculate; instead they follow their prime directive. 

Most Capricorns are reliable and steady.  They are often leaders and not always good at following although if their superiors are forthright and educated in their field, a Capricorn individual will not mind following the expert.  The Capricorn individual actually admires these individuals. 

Follow-through is also evident in most Capricorn individuals.

Many Capricorns have a difficult time expressing their emotions.  This is not to say that they are cold or emotionless.  This is not usually the case.  These individuals just have a difficult time releasing their emotions.  Much of course will depend on the house placement of the Sun and the house and sign position of the Moon.

In many cases Capricorns are strong and independent individuals.  When raising a family, they can be quite strict.  They may demand respect and in turn, respect others.  They will do their part in financial terms and also with obligations and duties.  Many are somewhat subdued and those individuals that are extroverted can easily take over the conversation while Capricorn sits back and listens.  Although while listening, they are likely forming their own opinions which are usually based on fact and then they might express themselves and others will listen.  When they talk, which is not all together that often, people will listen.  What they have to say might be important. 

Those with their Sun in and around the 22/23 degree mark will be experiencing the conjunction of Pluto and Saturn on their Sun and will likely go through periods of transformation along with challenging conditions to overcome especially when it comes to goals in life.  Much will depend on what area of life is involved.  This aspect is at its height from December 2019 into February 2020.  Power struggles may be evident and delays and setbacks are possible.  By late February, Saturn will have moved out of orb so the intensity will back off somewhat, although Pluto will still be in effect for some time to come. 

Endings and new beginnings will likely be highlighted.

REFLECTIONS



Look around you.  What do you see?

What you see and what you experience are reflections of your attitude and focus in life.  On some level you created the energies (your response) to this life.  Our reality is based on our attitude, perception and belief structure towards each experience. 

Don’t be mistaken, there are and will be events that take place that are completely out of our control and we will experience life to its full intensity and be subject to all ramifications outside of our selves.  Our reaction however is what makes our life smooth, rough or indifferent.    

What we see in our world is somehow a reflection of what lives within us.  (What we concentrate on in our mind and focus is what will jump out at us in our life).  When the world around us is in need of adjustment, it is a good indication that our own personal journey needs adjustment too.  Often this adjustment can be simply a change in our focus but sometimes we need to make actual changes to the way we are living our lives.

Some changes at first glance appear challenging.  These changes can sometimes be quite apparent and at other times they are quite subtle in their expression.  We often get hints along the way, however.  We can make decisions that will facilitate the required changes and the transition can be quite smooth.  Other times, we don’t make the necessary changes and the change comes any way.  Forced change can be much more disruptive than it has to be.  Our physical bodies can even react to these needed changes particularly if we are fighting the process.  Energy when release, after being harnessed for too long, can have severe effects on us emotionally, physically, spiritually. 

If we do not like what we see in our immediate environment then we should have a close look at what we might do on a personal level to change the situation – probably internally. 

Focus is the key.  Some of us coast through life not really participating and not truly recognizing our input.  Some of us are far too caught up in life’s circumstance and the “what ifs” and “could haves” when we should be focused on the moment. 

We can get lost in love; we can get lost in anger; we can get lost in envy; we can get lost in worry; we can get lost in fear; we can get lost in sadness. Anything to an extreme will render us lost.

When in doubt, choose love, but do not get lost in it.  Experience it! Live it! Be it!

WINTER SOLSTICE



This time of year in many ways is quite busy and filled with wonderful energies.  We will experience the Sun entering into the sign of Capricorn on December 21.  We will celebrate Winter Solstice (Hibernal Solstice) on December 21 at 11:19 p.m. EST and we will enjoy the energies of the New Moon in Capricorn 4 degrees on December 26. 

For your convenience, we are providing you with a link  to check the exact time of the winter solstice in your area - www.timeanddate.com/calendar/winter-solstice.html

Our daylight hours have significantly decreased since the equinox and on December 21 there will be the least daylight for us in the northern hemisphere as the sun is currently on a very low arc in the sky.

The great news is that the arc of the Sun’s path will heighten and our daylight will start to lengthen.  As nature sleeps and the light is low, however, we can take advantage of this time to reflect on our wonderful earthly journey.  This is the perfect time to look within.

What have we achieved over the past year?  Where has our growth been plentiful and where might we be able to focus a little more, if we choose?

This is the perfect time to plan our intentions and set our goals for when the energy and the light increase.  Mother nature always knows best.  Life is easier when we follow her example.  When the creatures of our locality rest, so should we.  Take this quiet time to nurture our inner self so that when the light and warmth returns, we are ready for the return of mental and physical energies.  Hopefully our spiritual energies are always high.

Our current lesson is patience which is always a difficult one to learn.  Utilize the wait to look deep into the shadows of self.  We can bring light into our darkest corners and fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), many celebrate the birth of Christ (the symbol of rebirth of salvation)?  This IS a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, etc.

We have so much to celebrate. 

Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is, with gratitude, with love and with inner and healing light!

Blessings to all from our home to yours.

TIME WISELY SPENT IN SILENCE



We have heard from people that they feel lost with no clear direction.  They feel as though they have nothing to strive for. 

Are you waiting for something or someone else to point you in the right direction?

Our journey can be challenging at times to say the least, and some individuals may feel as though they may have lost their way. 

These times that some terms as stagnant are the perfect times to contemplate and get into the habit of quieting the mind and allowing.  Seize these opportunities to practice mindfulness, to quiet the mind and just be.

It is imperative to just settle into our current life’s conditions and want nothing more (......just for this moment).  When we look up from our quiet time, we may find that a light has appeared in the distance.  There will be just enough light to light up the shadows in the dark corners of our life and we once again will feel comfortable and guided to continue on our journey.  We can never hurry the process but we can utilize the time wisely in silence (yes “wisely” sit quietly) using this period prudently.

If we have chosen to get caught up in the fear of nothingness, we must “defocus”.  It is just that simple.  By shifting the mind’s focus to quiet, we can appreciate and prepare for the next leg of our journey........that WILL come.  It is inevitable. 

Life can be SO busy and so much can happen that we lose gift of silence which is the best guide and teacher.  We shoot the rapids and spend little to no time adjusting and adapting to the subtle lessons that we learn.  These times that so many term as “stagnant” are not wasted time.  Quite the contrary.  It is during these times of quiet that we are given so many invaluable tools. 

Observe and examine and then sit in silence.  Accept and appreciate this treasures we have been provided with.  Do not be misled by reactive thoughts.  Quiet the mind regularly so that we are ready to continue our journey.  Where our path leads us tomorrow is not important today but we can rest assured that it leads to where we need to be. 

Enjoy each moment and utilize what may feel like stagnate times to reflect, review and rest.  This silent time is not stagnating; quite the contrary.  It is essential to calm the rapids on our river of life.
