Sagittarius New Moon

Hi folks, I have been out of commission for awhile, moving my residence and managing the movement of Saturn through my fourth house stellium, clearing the foundation of any incongruencies and misalignments within my inner house so to speak.

This week of Thanksgiving takes us into the sign of Sagittarius, and November 27th brings us the new moon in the sign of the Archer. Happy Birthday Sagittarius!

The archer aims his arrow or sword in the direction he wants his beliefs to take him in. Jupiter, the planet associated with Sagittarius, is the gas giant of the solar system and literally inflates anything it focuses on. So, what do you believe in? What do you stand for? What do you focus your thoughts on? What do you have faith in? What areas of your life need fulfillment? If areas in your life are expanding in a direction which is not satisfying or fulfilling to you this new moon is the one to get clear about your intentions so you can manifest (Jupiter) them, especially if they are in alignment with the greater good.

Personally, I am standing for freedom and change, and coming out of hiding to share my writing. I have been experiencing a lot of inner turbulence and fear lately and realized last week, that the only reason fear has had such a tight grip on me is because of my thoughts (what I was choosing to believe in) of fear, loss, etc. which had a strangle hold on me. With Saturn in Virgo, stirring up healing for our deepest personal and collective wounds, and unearthing all the instability in the marketplace our deepest seemingly insurmountable issues and tasks as a collective and personal body are bound to surface.

The Sun, the moon, Mercury and Mars are in close partnership in Sagittarius during this new moon. The sun represents our will, the moon our emotions, Mercury our mind/thoughts, and Mars our physical energy and our actions, thus I am utilizing the fuel of these planets (they align well in my chart) to aim in the direction of courage, emotional freedom, belief in the light, and the energy to follow through to release my article about Pluto.

Pluto moves slowly, transiting through one sign for a minimum of fifteen years. The last fifteen years, Pluto has been raising our consciousness about spirituality, religion, government, shining it's light (Sag) into the dark (Pluto) corners of bureaucracy, banking, business, and religious falacies. Now as Pluto moves into an earth sign, transformation on a formiable level come front and center as the collective steps into the underworld with Capricorn as their guide.

Pluto officially moves into Capricorn as of this week without retrograding back into Sagittarius at all. Capricorn rules all structures of soceity as well as the physical structures of our bodies. Buildings, strategies, governments, banking, foreclosures, teeth, bones, gravity, management, etc....
Therefore all governing bodies, all businesses are up for deep and lasting transformation. Pluto, ruled by Scorpio is no lightweight. The Goddess of the underworld is aligned with the deepest and most thorough transformation of any planet in our solar system. And, although demoted to a "sub-planet or asteriod" or something by NASA, her status in the scientifc model will not persuade her from cleaning house.

Now, let's not get thoroughly frightened here. We have other helpers to guide us through of the change coming down the pike. Aquarius for instance is an ever guiding force for collective humanitarism and by February 2009 six or seven planets will be aligned in Aquarius and will continue to shed light onto us and the planet, as a means to spyhon off our remaining personal and collective toxins.

Feel the energy of Obama coming out on stage the night of the election. So much light was pouring down into the planet at that moment that it awakened our deepest issues to heal and transform. I saw waves of rainbow light move across the crowd as they cheered in utter glory and rapture as we collectively chose to bring forth change.

More of this astounding transformation is coming, so hold to that as we watch the crumbling of over-zealous, unconscious, and non eco-friendly firms fold and turn into dust.

Election Week

Wow, this week has been totally intense. Three young boys from my nephew's school were randomly shot, one boy died. My uncle had a major heart attack and died yesterday morning, a good friend is in the hospital on life support while Barack Obama swept the nation's heart into a collective landslide voting him into office. Our heart's are raw here at home while joyously embracing this momentous historical time.

In addition my personal life is in total transition while I attempt to harness my collective gift and bring it forward in the collective although this is not the week to force anything. Transiting Saturn is opposing Uranus in a T-square aspect with Venus. This configuration is conjuncting and squaring my angels, my 4th house Uranus, Pluto, Venus in Virgo and opposing my natal Saturn in Pisces, and squaring my nodes.

I know this too shall pass, so I will wait it out. Venus will move forward and everything won't be so personally intense. I can handle to transiting opposition as I am quite familiar with it.

I looked up my uncle's chart and although I do not have his birth time, the chart reveals, Mercury, Venus, Pluto conjunct in Virgo. Saturn had just crossed over. My friend who is in the hospital has Venus in Pisces 18 degrees, Saturn is opposing and Uranus is conjuncting. They both were/are sixty years old. My uncle has south node in Leo and my friend has south node in Sagittarius. Neptune and Chiron are conjunct his SN and Saturn is squaring my friends mutable chart.

Wow,I am glad I got all of that out of my mind. When you understand astrology, especially the complexity, it can be quite isolating when others don't have the same reference point to discuss current events, etc.

Signing off for now.
