ARE YOU READY?

Now that we are over two weeks into the New Year, it would be a good time to reflect on what last year held for us.  Whether we considered it a good year, or not so good, does not matter anymore as it is now a part of our history.  As with each new day we experience, we are now in the process of a new beginning with a new year, 2024.  What lies ahead is uncertain, but the potential is always there for either great or small steps towards our objectives.

 

After our reflection of last year, perhaps rather than focusing on objectives linked to material achievements moving forward, we can ponder on what needs work on an inner basis for 2024.  There is nothing wrong with focusing on objectives linked to our material world, but that is so commonplace. Let’s change it up and ask ourselves what we can create in this new year. Let’s even contemplate what we would want to bring forward if this were to be our last year.  (We are not suggesting that it is your last year but looking at life from that perspective can push us towards something that truly matters deeply for us).

 

Changes from within offer the potential to bring lasting results and truly can bring out the best in us.  We might not see it in our immediate surroundings, but we will likely feel it on some level within. 

 

You will have to be honest with yourself and not push away anything that requires sincere reflection and possibly hard work (not to mention challenging realizations).  The more difficult the reflection, the more rewarding the experience and the aftereffects.  It is yours to conquer and rise above.  We may have to rethink some of our personal pursuits. As one change occurs, others often follow.

 

There is no failure even though at times it may feel that way. “Failure” is only a valuable lesson that helps us to adjust and move forward.  How then can we call it a failure? We can’t fail in our efforts, even what we call a failure brings valuable information and lessons. 

 

Again, in a year from now you can look back to review what you have accomplished in 2024 with great satisfaction due to yourself honesty and effort. 

 

For today, be open and know that you are ready to step forward.  It is your time; spend it wisely. 

 

All the best in your pursuit of wholeness in 2024.

 

Are you ready?

SUN IN AQUARIUS

We move from the Cardinal, Earth sign of Capricorn on January 20, 2024 into the Fixed, Air sign of Aquarius. 

 

Aquarians are one of the most futuristic signs of the Zodiac.

 

Aquarians are known to be humanitarians, moral and visionaries and are often ahead of their time.  Their thinking is progressive and because of the influence of Uranus, their ruling planet, they are on the lookout for new ideas that can stimulate growth and a movement out of complacency or stagnation.  They push for the new and leave behind anything that no longer contributes to their evolution.

 

They can be rebellious and are considered somewhat eccentric in their approach to life.  Their radical thinking can be visionary for some or offbeat for others.  Their motto is “I know” and their approach, as time progresses, is to live their life to the of their best abilities offering insights and wisdom for those who wish to listen.

 

They are independent and do not wish to be tied down.  Freedom of expression and the ability to live life the way they feel fit is their objective.  If their ideas and viewpoints are obstructed or interfered with, they can become impatient and restless as they are quite fixed in their opinions.  They walk their own road and are not ashamed of their uniqueness. Their wish it to leave something behind after death that can be used in aiding humanity on some level.  Whether this is for an individual or for the masses is not important but the more people they can help to reach their potential, the better the Aquarian feels.

 

They have an adventurous spirit, are better in groups than with individuals and often have trouble expressing their feelings, as they are focused on the mind rather than attached to feelings.  This, in some cases, can make them appear cold.  This does not mean that the typical Aquarian is unemotional. It is important, however, to check the full birth chart, especially the Moon, to get a complete picture of an individual’s emotional influences.

 

We will take a look at some of the Transits for the next year affecting Sun in Aquarius in our post on January 22.

 

Happy solar return to our Aquarius readers!

DON’T MAKE PROMISES YOU CAN’T KEEP

There are times you genuinely intend on doing something and you promise to do so. You do your best, but you find that you can’t do what you first set out to do.  There may be many reasons, but you still feel you have let someone down as you are not holding up your end of the bargain.

 

Perhaps before we promise to do something, we ensure we can do what we promise, whether that is mentally, physically or financially. It is better to say nothing and do our due diligence and then offer, if you can follow through.

 

It is difficult to hold back, especially if you really do want to assist someone who needs your help, but you must be able to deliver when the time comes. Do not get their hopes up if you are unsure if you can follow through.  Offer a helping hand once you once your know you can help, no matter what that helping hand may look like.

 

There will be instances when your assistance is not supposed to happen in the larger scheme of things. Perhaps those you want to help must learn an important lesson, and you are not supposed to interfere. That may be why you cannot see your way clear to help.  Who knows what the deeper meaning behind the experience may hold.

 

Everything in life happens for a reason.  If you can help, great! If you can’t help now, wait until you can. Don’t make promises you can’t keep.

TRANSITING SATURN TRINE THE ASCENDANT

Transiting Saturn rarely makes things easy, but its energies do work in a more favorable manner when it is in its retrograde cycle.  When Saturn makes a Trine to a planet, however it often suggests that the potential for a favorable outcome is better than when it is making a challenging aspect such as a Square or Opposition and in many cases the Conjunction.  Trine aspects indicate easy flow although that flow will be disrupted because of Saturn’s natural tendency to slow progress down and delay the result.

 

The Ascendant is a personal sphere of influence in our lives.  It has to do with our personal expression and even our appearance, although modern physical adjustments have an impact on this.  The Ascendant is the way we represent ourselves especially when we first meet someone.  It is our outer expression while the Sun is our inner expression and who we are deep inside.

 

Saturn’s influence will push you to have a close look at yourself. It will influence how you define who you are and whether you are comfortable with your self-expression and may challenge you to be honest about this to yourself.  You may even talk openly about this to others and may feel somewhat down about what you see.  Saturn will point out all your so-called short comings and push you to do something about them.  This will likely be difficult, but if you don’t cut yourself short and follow through with the hard work, your chances of success are enhanced but will likely take some work and time to accomplish.

 

Saturn will build a more solid foundation with the proper effort and will secure things for your self-expression and self-worth over time.  It may affect your relationship with others and make you more reliable and secure if this is something that needs refurbishing.  The ramifications for a job well done can work in many ways.  If the Ascendant is connected to the Midheaven, this turning point could enhance your career or if connected to the IC, it can make things better with family and build a more secure structure in the home environment. 

 

A full look at your chart would be required to get the full picture but in general this Saturn connection to the Ascendant is a favorable aspect if the required work is carried out and can help make many positive changes in life.

THE COMPLEXITIES OF LIFE

All individuals (even those that are referred to as awakened) have challenges in life. Some of us understand that our focus can ease issues or magnify these challenges. Even with this understanding, at time, we can still get lost in our thoughts but those that have worked with their thoughts regularly can regain control faster and with less anxiety than those that allow their thoughts to control their response to life.  We all can struggle with maintaining a healthy attitude and with letting go of hurt and loss.

 

For those that are led by their thoughts without realizing they do have control or without questioning their mind’s focus, they believe that life is a struggle, that they will never overcome and that anxiety is a normal daily experience. 

 

Some do not question that they are not at the mercy of their thoughts, that there is assistance available and that finding an enjoyable way forward is attainable. 

Holding on to hard life lessons serves little, if any, purpose at all. It does take work to move beyond the lessons (not punishments) but it is not impossible.

 

Struggle in life is common but it builds strength, resilience, determination, etc.

 

Do not ask “why is this happening to me”.  Ask, “what can I learn from this?”

 

Step back and look at your situation from an unattached perspective. How does it look now?

 

We are only human. Lessons can be difficult, but our attitude and focus can magnify the lesson far beyond what it actually is.

 

Take one step at a time and know that you WILL find your way and WILL learn the lesson at hand, if you so choose.

 

You learn the greatest lessons from challenges. You are stronger than you realize. There are others there to support you, but you must take the step.

 

Celebrate life and all it contains.  See it for the blessing it is!

Saturn in Pisces

Transiting Saturn entered the sign of Pisces on March 8, 2023 and will slowly move through this sign. Saturn went into retrograde in June, 2023, and will do so again in July, 2024, and in July 2025. In November, 2025 it turns direct.  It enters Aries in May 2025 but enters the various retrograde cycles returning to Pisces and does not return to Aries again until February, 2026. 

 

Saturn while in retrograde actually works more favourably than while in its direct motion, so the retrograde cycles are important.

 

Saturn is all about structure and reliability. It wants to preserve its energy for a very real focus of substance and what might be considered things that relate to reality and that which is real.  While moving through the sign of Pisces (which is quite the opposite of these characteristics), Saturn will want to look through the lens of clarity and definition.  The mystical and intuitive qualities of Pisces will need to be weighed out and structured in such a way that only facts pass the iron test of Saturn.  There will be no wondering if something is real or imagined as life will go through a period of reflection, reality focus and questioning if it is viable and concise.

 

Your spiritual connection may go through a period of testing and its validity will be confronted. You may go through a period of questioning whether this is practical and real or not.  Your mystical and perhaps your religious inclinations may go through a period of examination and assessment.  After, and often during the times of retrograde, the potential for solidification and structuring takes place. Your ideologies connected with psychic matters may become more reliable and constructed in such a way that there would be far less “wondering” if something is factual or not. 

 

There may be some hurtles to overcome, and a questioning period that takes place, but you will know with much more certainty than you did prior to this period.  The truth will be told and if any of your planets and angles are connected to Saturn during its Piscean stay (particularly the conjunction aspect), the house placements will have an important role in what area of life will be involved and perhaps reconstructed. 

 

You will find the answers to anything that has been vague or uncertain as time passes. Use this information to make conscious decisions for the next steps in your life’s ongoing adventure.

SIGNIFICATORS OF CHANGE

Change is a guarantee in life. Sometimes change requires our participation and other times, change just happens.  It is my opinion that change happens because change is due.

 

There are times when we just know that our lives will take huge turns because of outside influences.  In some cases, who we become after the turn of events would be unrecognizable to our earlier self.  Significant changes occur especially when we are younger and learning the basics, when we morph into adults and again, later in life when we develop into mature adults.

 

If we were to look back even five years, we are not who we were then.  Our core identity, deep within, however, never seems to change. It just expands. 

 

Some of us refer to these changes as levels of enlightenment and awakening.  Some find that our destiny just seems to mold us.

 

Life circumstances change and we adjust.  Relationships change, occupation can change, lifestyle and appearances will change.  We either adapt or struggle with what life presents to us.  Sometimes life makes suggestions (or should I say insists) for change and we can’t ignore it. We get little hints that these changes are required along the way.  With these hints, we can dig deep into ourselves to rediscover or recognize who we are and what we are becoming to facilitate adjustments to enhance this masterpiece. If required, we can completely change direction and start anew, if need be.

 

Change is inevitable. We can decide to take that leap of faith and trust life with the changes it is presenting. Believe that change is for the better even when it does not look that way initially.

 

We must learn when to move ahead and when to stay where we are. We often get glimpses of what potential lies ahead.  We are not at the mercy of life as we can adapt and change with the circumstances. We are at the mercy of what we decide to take on as our own and our attitude towards life’s blessings and its lessons.
