Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students. 

 

If you do not find what you are looking for on this Blog page, please visit www.holmastrology.blogspot.com/ where you will find our missing blog posts.  There are over 2,660 posts pre September, 2023.

We apologize for the inconvenience but it is worth the jump over to our blogspot.

Saturn is about restriction, delays, setbacks, challenging situations but also has to do with hard work, building a solid foundation and returns on diligent efforts. 

 

Mars has to do with energy, vitality, drive, ambition (ambition which also ties in with Saturn), pushing its way through adversity, and meeting challenging conditions.  Mars also has to do with the sex drive, forcefulness and aggressive actions (this all largely depends on the sign it is in within the natal chart).

 

With Saturn opposition Natal Mars, you undoubtedly will be able to figure out which way to go but not without some restraint and perhaps some setbacks along the way.  Advance accordingly and make sure you take your time and study your plans carefully before you take that next step.

The meeting of these two energies suggests a lot of push and pull.  The desire to advance with force but at the same time the need for security which can be linked to what is comfortable and therefore suggests a stop and go situation. 

 

“Should I advance with my proposals, am I secure enough to push my way forward, if I push, will I make mistakes along the way, does it really matter if I push too hard, can I learn from my mistakes and begin again” might be questions that you would ask yourself under this influence.

 

You may find that you are anxious about moving ahead with your objectives and at the same time wanting more than anything to advance.

 

When we speak of the opposition aspect, there are almost always other people involved in the equation and their input often plays a significant part in our decision making.  They can also hold us back because they may play a major role in when and how we advance. 

 

Oppositions are often challenging because others may hold control over what we are doing. We may want to move forward but they feel that they know better and give suggestions or even tell us that it can’t be done.

 

This aspect between Saturn and Mars can create quite challenging situations when we want to advance, and much will depend on the houses these two planets are in as well as the overall picture provided by the natal chart itself.  The Natal chart always shows potential and difficulties, but most can be overcome through attitude or planning. 

 

With Saturn opposition Natal Mars, you undoubtedly will be able to figure out which way to go but not without some restraint and perhaps some setbacks along the way.  Advance accordingly and make sure you take your time and study your plans carefully before you take that next step.

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
October Solar Eclipse

On October 2, 2024, we will be experiencing a Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra at 10°. 

 

If you have natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time when this eclipse is in effect.  You can allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in the appropriate signs will be influenced.  All major aspects will have some effect on this placement. 

 

A few months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to manifest.  This influence can be strong for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours.  According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.

 

Since this eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to do with relationships.  This may include your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates.  It involves fairness, justice, balancing, harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right. 

 

It often encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant change.  There is often an important shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a new direction.  Important life events are often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position will define what area of life may be involved.  Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses.  Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the long haul.

 

Transiting Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes place.  You may have been thinking about things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes place.  Sometimes destiny seems to prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control.  Things change because they need to.  Intensions play a big part in what unfolds, and goals also come into play.

 

Along with Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which can solidify things and bring stability).  The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential of working well and moving along nicely.  You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended direction.  The emotions may be kept under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface, and things flow without obstruction.

 

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.

Most everyone wants peace in their lives and not on a temporary basis. 

 

Realistically, how many of us can create this peace on a full-time basis?

 

We may allow peace and contentment off and on in our lives, but we never have it on a constant basis because we believe peace to be something that is obtained externally.  We blame life or others for robbing us of peace.

 

We are human and we will, some moments, have expectation that will create disappointment or worse. Recognize these moments for what they are. Forgive yourself, accept and choose peace. Keep reminding yourself “Peace” is a choice!  Peace and contentment are inside jobs!
Peace and Contentment

Peace is an inside job!

 

Peace is obtained through attitude.

 

We must find peace in knowing that life will bring lessons. Accepting these lessons and acknowledging their value will help us to allow peace.

 

Expecting life to run smoothly is allowing your attitude to rob you of peace.

 

Expecting to have control over all that happens in your life and to have control over those who live this life with you is again allowing your attitude to rob you of peace.

 

We are human and we will, some moments, have expectation that will create disappointment or worse. Recognize these moments for what they are. Forgive yourself, accept and choose peace.
