COMMUNICATION IS A MUST

The ability to speak your mind, to participate in a conversation, to listen to understand what is being shared are key to communicating effectively with others. 

Some people are afraid to open themselves up in case of debate and yet others may take advantage of what they reveal.  Some have insecurities with their intellect and are uncomfortable when open dialogue is required.

At the same time, there are those that love debate and even confrontation.

Communication is a Must

Communication however is not just about speaking. An important key to communicating is listening, truly listening without thinking about what the response is going to be, to give the speaker your undivided attention.

In significant relationships, it is important to be open and discuss life events, even those you may feel insignificant.  It is important to open up to those that matter in life and discuss even the most intimate topics so that together resolutions can be worked out. When we open to conversation about any subject, we are closer to those that we communicate with.

In general conversation, there are individuals that constantly chatter, possibly because of excitement, anxiousness, lack of communication elsewhere, self-importance and the list goes on.  Those that never stop talking can be quite disruptive and need to be reminded that others have important contributions in a conversation as well. 

It is important to know when to let others speak and to give our full attention. It is also important to be heard and to communicate what is important. Listening, sharing and respect are imperative in effective communication. Communication is a must.

What type of communicator are you?

2024 ASPECTS FOR SUN IN LEO

On July 17, 2024, we reviewed some of the character traits of Sun in Leo. www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-leo-2024

Happy solar return to our Leo followers.

Aspects to Sun in Leo

Today, we will look at some of the 2024 aspects for those with Sun in Leo.

Mercury is in retrograde from August 4 until August 27, 2024, and during this period, it will begin to influence the charts of those that have their Sun in the later degrees of Leo.  Mercury moves from Leo to Virgo on July 25 and stays in Virgo until it once again moves back into Leo on August 15 due to retrograde motion. Mercury moves from 21-29° of Leo into September and then moves back to Virgo moving forward. 

Anyone having their Sun in Leo from approximately 18° into its final degree will experience this conjunction of Transiting Mercury and your natal Sun.  

Mercury has to do with the thinking process and communicative techniques. The Sun will emphasize this capability and it will be like you know exactly what you are talking about.  This, if all else within the chart agrees, can be a great time to bring to the surface some of your ideas and goals for others to analyze, and perhaps you will receive some recognition for your enthusiasm and creative thinking. 

Venus moved into the sign of Leo on July 11, 2024, and will remain in Leo until August 5. Those Leonians who have Venus in conjunction with their Sun may find that their financial situation is more satisfactory, and that they can enjoy what money brings into their lives.

Romantic involvement may increase or become more relevant during this Venus contact. There may be more social involvement and perhaps parties or gatherings to attend.

The whole chart will have to correspond with the energies associated with what was just noted. The house placement will speak of where these energies will reveal themselves.  We must always look at the natal potential to fully understand the potential available as other transits will have to be configured into the equation as well. These are just short transits that will take place for our Leonian readers but these are the only ones that are noteworthy to the Sun.  There will certainly be other transits in the chart aspecting natal positions that do not affect the Sun.

To summarize, the 2024 aspects for Sun in Leo will emphasize the thinking process and communicative techniques and romance may become a focal point. Enjoy your social life and possible recognition for your enthusiasm and creative thinking.

OUR TRANSITION THROUGH THE HOUSES IN ASTROLOGY

Our Transition Through The Houses in Astrology, House one through four

In Astrology, the Ascendant is a new beginning.  As anything moves through the first houses, we begin again. There is a gradual development as anything moves through the houses of the Zodiac.  The first house represents a new beginning and as we transition through each house, we develop the skills represented by the energies of each house, one building on the next. Today we will look at houses one through four.

Thinking strictly of the energies of the houses, without focusing on the energies of the planets, comets or anything else that migrates through the Zodiac, the first house, again, is the beginning, a new birth or new start. We learn what is required in order to express ourselves in our environment.  We acquire certain characteristics which suit our outward expression, build on how we wish to be seen by the world and formulate a plan to push onward in our quest of life.

As we move from the first into the second house, and we are becoming comfortable with our outward expression especially in the way we present ourselves to the general public, we now need to find comfort in this expression and security from within.  Some find this inner security, although often we may find this temporarily in our efforts to acquire financial security.  What we are really trying to obtain is inner security and no outward success can build any type of permanent security.  The financial situation, whether we choose or do not choose to pursue this, does offer a “feeling” of security in the ever changing monetary expression.

As we begin to gain inner confidence acquired in the second house, we then move into the third house where we set out to achieve communication skills in our daily life experience.  We may now feel secure enough within or not so secure, but our self-expression through our communicative techniques will hopefully help in these situations.  This can be received through many channels such as communication with siblings and other family members in early life.  When we mature, we should be ready to tackle the world at large and our communication is essential for our advancements whatever that may be.

When we venture beyond communication techniques we acquired through the third house, we should now begin to settle into life.  We then begin thinking about family and a place where we can hang our hat, so to speak.  We move towards settling into a home of our choosing and think about building a family although our own immediate family, especially the parents, will have a significant impact on some of these choices.  We may move from the family home and find a place of our own or think about gaining our own independence in some manner.  We may be ready or almost ready to buy a home but we might want someone to share the expense or we start our journey towards a family of our own, all represented by the fourth house energies.

We will continue with our transition through the houses in Astrology in our post on February 28.
