Turn Up The Volume

Have you been sitting around waiting for things to happen?  That probably won’t change this week, as most of the outer planets are retrograde, but due to the number of aspects and planetary changes this week, there will be more noise.  What do you want to be different when the time is right?

Mars in Libra will square Pluto in Capricorn on October 8 at 9:05 pm.  You want to come to a resolution.  You may even want the resolution to be fair, but when Pluto is involved it’s rarely fair.  Something has shifted and changed.  It’s time to decide if you can accept it or if it’s time to move on.

Venus enters Virgo on October 8 at 9:11 pm.  Venus has been in the sign of Leo since June, asking us to get in touch with our hearts.  Now she’s moving on to how you can serve.  Venus will be restless and analytical while in the sign of Virgo, which isn’t something that she thrives on.  She wants it to make sense, but the heart doesn’t always make sense.  Try not to be too critical of yourself and others as it may just bog you down and keep you in place.

Venus in Virgo is Opposite Saturn on Pisces on October 9 at 2:11 am.  Venus in Virgo wants to make things better, but Saturn in Pisces is trying to dissolve the structures that are already there.  Who will win?  It’s hard to tell at this point.  Just allow it to play out.  There’s more to the story that will be revealed at a later time.

Pluto stations to go direct on October 10 at 9:10 pm.  The first of the outer planets will come out of its retrograde motion.  It will take some time for Pluto to get back in the swing of things.  It’s been reflecting back on it’s time in Capricorn.  Have you made all of the adjustments that Pluto wants you to make?  If not, there may be some changes coming, just not yet. 

The Sun in Libra Opposes Chiron in Aries on October 11 at 2:21 am.  How are your past wounds impacting your present?  The Sun is shining a light on these past wounds.  It’s time for you to find peace in what they have to tell you.  The wounds are ready to go, but you must be willing to let them go.

Mars enters Scorpio on October 12 at 12:04 am.  Mars is grateful to be leaving behind the sign of Libra and entering into a sign that he loves.  He is ready to take action, but the rest of the players aren’t in place quite yet.  You should notice that you have more energy though and are ready to tackle some of the small items on your to-do list.

Mercury in Libra Opposes Chiron in Aries on October 14 at 6:31 pm.  This will carry on the conversation you had a few days ago about letting go of your wounds.  This will happen just after the eclipse at 1:55 pm, which will make this conversation more important.  What do you need to know so that you can find balance and become a better you?

Right to Balance

How has the need to be right impacted your life?  Have you felt the need to be right or have you noticed it from the people around you?  A shift will begin this week when Mercury changes signs later in the week.

But first Mercury in Virgo will Oppose Neptune in Pisces on October 2 at 11:34 am.  Communication could be confusing or unclear.  There’s the need to be precise but it’s just not happening.  Try not to get too frustrated.  This too shall pass.

Mercury enters the sign of Libra on October 4 at 8:09 am.  The need to be right should start to ease.  Instead, you will begin to search for thinking that is fair and balanced.  You may want peace and diplomacy.  Look for a resolution that may have been keeping you from moving forward.  There is a way, sometimes you need to examine the other side.

Can you move beyond the need to be right?    Let me know.  Do you want to know more, click here to book a discovery session or an appointment?

Clarity Returns

There’s only one non-lunar aspect this week and for some of you, it’s a biggie, Mercury stations to go direct on September 15 at 4:21 pm.

What has Mercury been reviewing and revisiting while it’s been retrograde since August 23?  Maybe something regarding your health or how you serve your community since it’s in the sign of Virgo?  Or maybe Mercury is having a little fun and messing around with technology.

Either way with both Mercury and Venus now direct, you can get clear on an area of your life.  Clarity has been in short supply for a while and it seems like just when you wrap your head around one matter, another one takes its place. Maybe this week you can begin to decide what you truly want.  All of the outer planets are still retrograde, so there will still be some time before things may truly fall into place, but the planning can begin.

What are you getting clear on?    Let me know.  Do you want to know more, click here to book a discovery session or an appointment?

Back to Work

Still feeling stuck?  With all of the retrograde energy, it's felt like one step forward and steps backward.  The retrograde energy is still present, but with a little bit of Virgo energy thrown into the mix, you could move forward a little bit.

Venus stations direct on September 3 at 9:20 pm.  Since Venus is still in the sign of Leo, it's time to take care of yourself.  Keep in mind that it's not always an outside job, sometimes you need to focus on the inside to get to the outside.

Jupiter is going retrograde on September 4 at 10:10 am.  Jupiter in Taurus has been searching for new beginnings and growth, but it’s time to look back over the steps that you’ve taken.  Are you making progress?  If not, search within and see what’s holding you back.  Is your pride getting in the way of admitting that you’ve made a mistake or from admitting that you’re wrong?  It could be any number of things, but keep an eye out for the education that Jupiter wants to provide you.

The Sun in Virgo Conjuncts Mercury in Virgo on September 6 at 7:09 am.  The Sun wants to get to work.  The Sun in Virgo wants to serve and Mercury in Virgo is ready to discuss how.  How can you accomplish your goals?  Virgo wants them to be perfect, but life isn’t perfect.  Sometimes just moving forward is better than never starting.

Follow Your Intuition

The energy of the last few weeks has been tiring and even though there haven’t been lots of aspects, those that have been present have packed a punch.  This week there will be several different energies all at the same time and Mercury is stationing to go retrograde, so technology will be acting up.

On August 22, there are two aspects.  Venus in Leo Squares Jupiter in Taurus at 8:16 am.  What does your heart want and is it helping to push you in a direction that’s in your best interest?  Which path do you choose?  Make sure to follow your heart.  Your heart knows that correct answer even if you’re trying to deny what’s right.

Also on August 22 at 4:34 pm, Mars in Virgo Opposes Neptune in Pisces.  Mars in Virgo has been trying to get things done especially in regards to health matters, but Neptune in Pisces is making decisions a little foggy.  It’s not quite clear yet.  You may have to rely on your instincts to guide you or if you can delay a decision for a few days that could help too.

The Sun will be leaving the sign of Leo and entering the sign of Virgo on August 23 at 5;01 am.  Mars and Mercury have been laying the groundwork in the sign of Virgo already, but when the Sun enters, a new emphasis will be given to the matters you’ve been working on.  Pay more attention to health matters and what’s in the best interest of your body.  Clean up and discard what’s no longer serving you.  Find a way to be of service to others as well, if possible.

Mercury is stationing to go retrograde on August 23 at 3:59 pm.  Let the technology glitches begin, although the past week or so, you may have already noticed a few hiccups as Mercury is in its retrograde shadow.  You may have to rely on your gut instincts now more than ever.  Mercury in Virgo wants to be precise, but that may not be possible.  Even though perfectionism may be the name of the game for Virgo, sometimes you just need to step back and allow it to be what it will be instead of what you want it to be.

Find the Positive

There has been so much going on, that at times it’s a challenge to just keep up.  There’s only one non-lunar aspect, this week, but it will be important to take the time to process your thoughts before speaking and try to find a positive way to respond.

Mercury in Virgo Opposes Saturn in Pisces on August 1 at 10:18 pm.  This can be a time of poor communication skills, frustration, and sadness.  There may also be the possibility of misinterpreting what you hear or being too critical of others.  It’s easy to jump to conclusions, but it’s important to take the time and listen.  Finding the positive in a bad situation can be tricky and could take some time.

Take some time to respond this week.  Find a way to be kind in your responses.  Being mean doesn’t normally get you what you want.  You may have to explore your own past and come to terms with your part in a situation.  It’s easy to lash out at others and blame them for your problems, but if you can examine the situation, you may be able to learn something important and get to a better place. 

It would have been easier for me to blame my getting fired completely on my prior employer and say it was all their fault, but the truth is that I was no longer happy there.  I had reached the end of that path and was ready to start a new one, but I was stuck in my old way of thinking.  I couldn’t see it.  The universe helped me to close out that chapter of my life and open up a new one.  This isn’t to say that I didn’t go through a range of emotions as I processed the event, believe me, I did, but within a few weeks, I was able to see the positives.  Look for the positives and it can help to change your thinking.

Is It About Me?

How was last week?  Was it intense or did things finally start to settle down?  Just when you think you have your direction figured out, sometimes you have to make a U-turn and go in a different direction.  This may be one of those weeks. 

Chiron stations to go retrograde on July 23 at 8:42 am.  Chiron is in Aries and still examining the I Am.  Who are you?  Chiron is often your deepest wound.  This is a great time to dig into the wound and peel it apart, but will you take the time or will you just brush off the work?   The more you try to avoid the problem, the bigger it will get.  There is no escaping your wound, you will have to confront it at some time.  It may be better to do it now.

Mercury in Leo Squares Uranus in Taurus on July 23 at 5:39 pm.  The Sun, Mercury, and Venus are all now in Leo and would like to be playful and have fun, but there is work to be done first.  If you haven’t done the work, you may be feeling a little sorry for yourself.  The problems that you’re facing couldn’t possibly be your fault.  You’re determined and right.  Is being right worth it?

On July 27 at 11:16 am, Mercury in Leo Conjuncts Venus in Leo.  Have you thought a little bit more about what you want to do?  Your heart is steering you in a new direction.  Being right isn’t everything.  You may not have seen the path clearly and have made mistakes, but mistakes make you human.  It can be difficult to let it go, but it could be in your best interest to do so and start again.  The choice is yours and only yours.  Only you can change your life and the universe is giving you a push.  Take the push.

What’s your re?

It’s summertime and with the signs of Mercury and Venus being in the Leo and the Sun about to join them it should be a time of fun, but Venus is about to go retrograde, what could that look like for you?

Mercury in Leo Squares Jupiter in Taurus on July 17 at 8:49 am.  Fun and creativity meet growth.  Jupiter is here to remind you that it’s not all fun and games and it’s time to get moving and meet your goals.

On July 20 at 4:39 pm, Mars in Virgo Opposes Saturn in Pisces.  Saturn in Pisces is trying to dissolve something in your life that isn’t working and Mars in Virgo might just be working to put that same thing into place.  Make sure it’s something that you really want before you put a lot of time and effort into it. 

The Sun in Cancer Opposes Pluto in Capricorn on July 21 at 11:53 pm.  Since 2008, Pluto in Capricorn has been transforming an area of your life.  Pluto is back to make sure that things are going the way they should.  The Sun in Cancer is checking to see how you feel about this.  Do you have the support that you need?  It’s ok to be nostalgic and wish for the old times, but sometimes you have to accept that the old days aren’t coming back and it’s time to move on.

On July 22 at 9:33 pm, Venus stations retrograde.  Venus is going to be retrograde until September 3.  This could be a great time to examine what you love.  Does it bring you joy?  Is your heart in it?  All of these are good questions to revisit while Venus is in retrograde. A few hours later at 9;50 pm, the Sun enters Leo.  The Sun wants to have fun and be inspired but could get stuck on the dramatic and the personal issues.  Be confident and optimistic.  Things will turn out how they’re supposed to, but not always how you expect them to.

Practicality vs. Creativity

Hope you got some time to rest last week and maybe even figure out what’s important to you.  There are two sign changes this week, so the energy is shifting.

Mars enters the sign of Virgo on July 10 at 7:40 am.  The planet of action is entering the sign of perfectionism, industriousness, diligence, and practicality.  You may be finding it challenging to get things done while Mars is in the sign of Virgo, you may have to double and check everything to make sure that it is just right.  It could also keep you from being impulsive with your actions and make sure this next step is one that you want to take.

Also on July 10 at 4:48 pm., Mercury in Cancer Opposes Pluto in Capricorn.  The ideas coming to fruition might have to take a backburner to whether or not they are structurally sound.  That’s ok, write those ideas down anyways you may come up with a solution at a later time.

Mercury enters the sign of Leo a few hours later on July 11 at 12:11 am.  Your thoughts might be more creative or you may feel more confident while Mercury is in the sign of Leo. Harness the power of the sun and let it help guide your thoughts to be more optimistic and fun.

The Sun in Cancer Squares Chiron in Aries on July 12 at 8:06 am.  Get out of your head and get in touch with your emotions.  Your emotions are trying to tell you something, but you’re spending so much time trying to be right or striving for the next thing that you might be losing something important in the process.  Dig down.  Cry if you need to.  Crying is a great way to release pent-up energy and expel it from your body. 

Which is it for you?  Practicality or creativity?  Maybe even a little of both.  Let me know.  Do you want to know more, click here to book a discovery session or an appointment?

What’s Important?

Happy Independence Day!  Enjoy some time off with family and friends and a little reminder about what’s important in life.  It can be so easy to get lost in day-to-day activities, but those aren’t what you remember at the end of the day.  It may be a seemingly tiny thing to you that makes all the difference in the world to someone else.

With all the hustle and bustle and high intensity of the last few years, a basic philosophy of being kind to others seems to be missing as part of daily society.  There’s such a concern with being right that being kind has been lost.  Venus in Leo is all about connecting to the heart and will Square Uranus in Taurus on July 2 at 10:34 am.  Uranus in Taurus is working on helping you to grow.  Maybe it’s more important to grow something that is meaningful and to be happy and fulfilled, than it is to have all the money or tangible items in the world.  It can be so easy to strive for riches and get things, but at the end of your life, you can’t take any of those things with you. Many people are starting new chapters in their lives, you may even be one of them.  Do something that will bring you happiness.  Happiness and love are two of the most important things that you can have in your life and their effects can be widespread.  A little bit of joy can go a long way to changing the world.

Mercury in Cancer will Square Chiron in Aries on July 6 at 12:28 am.  There may be some emotional processing that takes place.  Mercury has been revealing things and still is this week.  Pay attention to the little things, they may seem insignificant but could send you in a new direction.  Be careful not to get too stuck in your head.  It can be hard to say the words, but those words could be significant.
