I've been away from this keyboard far to long, so I'm more than happy to be back. My inspiration today comes from Uranus' direct motion at 0 degrees and Jupiter's direct motion to occur December 26th. This new year is going to come in with a bang!
Back to Uranus, the planet of CHANGE, unexpected change, liberation, freedom, ingenuity, in the sign of Aries, the initiator! We here on planet Earth are in for radical evolutionary change as the two outer planets, Uranus (which also represents social groups and friends) and Pluto, dance within a 90 degree square for the next three years!!!
Remember square dancing in junior high phys ed class? It's awkward, tight, and doesn't flow well, and was actually kind of hard to learn. Unless one really understands and trusts the rhythm of change, two steps forward, one step back, or something like that, frustration, anger, self-doubt, and all kinds of irritating feelings arise. Learning to dance in a square requires willingness to learn something new, with a key factor to work together, once this occurs the dance is quite fun!
If we apply square dancing to the collective picture, we too will have quite a bit of adjusting to do. The rapid acceleration and harbingers of change appearing before us now are surely at hand. At times we may experiences these changes-surprises as unfriendly, thus we may feel justified in our beliefs, our stance of anger, judgments, or fear (another memory is popping in my head...just connecting with junior high friends on Facebook brings these forward). Let's say one of your dance partners is not your favorite person, or they are the least favorite person in the school--we still had to dance with them, hold their hand, accept them, and somehow find compassion and tolerance for them to get a passing grade in the class and get through the moment.
Life right now is kind of the same scenario. We are all here together on this huge planet, with different religious and political beliefs, different skin color, different experiences, and yet we are very much connected by our similarities. The energy of this a square pattern between Uranus and Pluto forces these issues to the surface, bringing them out of hiding, so the drudge, the resistance to change the familiar (patriarchal Saturn-Capricorn) can break free and establish new norms. Uranus has been retrograde since July 10th. This planet doesn't move as fast as Mercury, but the volatile energy it imbues into our lives is unmistakable, so don't underestimate its power to move your life forward in exponential ways.
With all the Sag energy we are experiencing now (eclipses, Sun, Mercury retro and the nodes), and how we work with it, will be let loose when Jupiter, the ruling planet of Sagittarius, moves direct at 1 Taurus on the 26th of December. Thus as Jupiter picks up speed, at the same time Uranus does, big changes will come forth, in our personal and collective lives. This means the energy of Sagittarius will be with us through the beginning of the year.
Sagittarian's above all value freedom, nature, and firey interplay. What in your life needs freeing up, what needs to be cleaned up (Mars in Virgo for six months), let go of to make room to expand your intuitive nature?
The lunar eclipse on December 10th at 18 degrees Sag is four degrees away from the transiting nodes (14 Sag-Gemini). This combinations lends extra fuel to the Sun, the Moon in Gemini, retro Mercury in Sag (ruled by Gemini) and Jupiter transiting in Taurus. Questions to ask yourself: what do I value? am I living my truth? are my beliefs congruent with the highest and deepest truth? what emotions are out-dated that I continually distract myself with? what actions can I take to organize my space and my life in support of these changes? where do I get nurturing from? do I need more time to meditate, space out, dream, and connect with Source energy? Can I be more compassionate with myself and others?
Happy Holidays!
