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.

At times, we can feel alone, disenchanted, unloved and we feel abandoned.  This can be especially true around the holidays or when we are comparing ourselves to others.  We can become distressed, unorganized, worried, and anxious about where life is taking us or not taking us.  We wish for a glimmering hope of better days ahead.

 

We wonder if things will ever shift, and this is when most of us decide to find our way out. The first step would be to face these issues head on. Dive deep! Where do these issues stem from and what are they teaching us?

 

Push yourself to take the first step.


There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons. Do not be dismayed.  You can and will make your way through.  Dig in and take charge!
Do Not Be Dismayed

Challenges can feel like we made a wrong turn but there are no wrong turns in life. While in the midst of a challenge, especially one that we are trying to hide from, this concept may be difficult to understand let alone accept.  But running away from issues is not the easy way. More often than not, the issue keeps resurfacing.  It will persist until we have learned the lesson at hand.

 

If we dig in and are determined, we gain strength, self-confidence, valuable insight and knowledge from the experience.  All things pass, and if we persevere and push ourselves, the lessons are learned and our reality (or maybe our perspective) shifts.

 

Stand your ground as you are stronger than you think.  You will reap the rewards from your challenges even during those times it feels as though it is just one thing after another.  Sometimes life goes this way when you want it to go that way but life continually shifts. There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons.

 

Do not be dismayed.  You can and will make your way through.  Dig in and take charge!

Many of us live our lives in worry and fear and are drawn in by thoughts of failure, not being good enough, not living up to our own expectations or the expectations of others, or any other way of thinking that diminishes our value and our life’s experience. 

 

Recognize that you are not your thoughts; you are the one listening to your thoughts.  Our mind will tell us anything. Our mind can change the story over and over in a blink of an eye. You can either get caught up in the stories, or you can take what is relevant and use it for the benefit of your overall development and experience.


Your thoughts are something you experience but they are not you!
Our Minds Will Tell Us Anything

This is not to say that by ignoring our mind’s chatter that we can escape our life’s lessons and circumstances. Life happens but we can choose how we respond to lessons and circumstances. We can allow them to rule our waking moments (and dreams for that matter), or we can rise above these invasive, non-productive thoughts simply by acknowledging them and then releasing them.

 

We do not have to be captives of our thought patterns. Recognizing these thoughts and where they are leading you is the first step to changing your focus or perspective.  Your life experience is truly all about perspective.  Your thoughts are something you experience but they are not you.

 

Take safety measures to remind yourself that you are only the listener. You decide if you hold on to the message or let it go.  Life happens but you are in control of your reaction and your focus. Change your attitude (focus), change your life.

On November 22, 2023, the Sun moves from the fixed water sign of Scorpio into the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius.


Mars and Mercury will also both be in the sign of Sagittarius forming a conjunction with anyone with their Sun sign in Sagittarius.


Mercury is at 17° Sagittarius and then goes into retrograde on December 14 (although at 8° Capricorn) but will move back into Sagittarius on December 24 still in retrograde. Mercury goes direct on January 2, 2024, and returns to Capricorn on January 13. Mercury during its retrograde cycle will move from 29° back down to 22° Sagittarius. As a result, anyone who has their Sun in these degrees will experience the conjunction as well as the retrograde cycle.


Mercury retrograde suggests a time for evaluating situations and making plans. Many say that it is not a good time to move ahead with plans, but it is a time to get ready to move ahead with these well-thought-out plans, once the retrograde cycle is over.


Mars will be in direct motion and goes into Sagittarius on November 24 and moves through this sign entering Capricorn on January 4, 2024. Mars is about drive and activity.


After Mercury has finished its cycle of retrogradation, those with this connection in their chart can move ahead. Those that have an earlier connection may find it somewhat challenging to move ahead as there may be obstructions or delays along the way especially if natal Saturn is part of the picture.


Sagittarius is about being attracted to wide open spaces and perhaps the Sagittarian has been thinking about taking a vacation. This might be a good time to travel but there may be some disruptions or delays along the way because of Mercury. It should be noted however that unless you have Mercury retrograde in your birth chart and it is affecting the natal positioning of other planets, this energy is not overly powerful. Many individuals feel no effects from Mercury retrograde, however many fear it unnecessarily. If you are planning a holiday don’t worry about it and have some fun.


Sagittarians love to travel, have an open mind, and enjoy the great outdoors. Sagittarians generally have an optimistic attitude and often believe that the best is yet to come. They truly believe that there is always something good right around the corner.


Sagittarius’ energies are about expansion and often these individuals seem to have good luck following them around. Jupiter is the ruling planet and brings with it fortunate conditions.


Life’s philosophies are important for Sagittarians, and they learn by experience. The conquest for the truth is part of their journey, and they learn from what they see in front of them due to their involvement.


Sagittarians are in it for the long haul but may be a little impatient when things move too slowly. They are a fire sign and that should be expected.


Excitement and enhanced experience are what these individuals love. Some become the wanderers of the world, ever seeking life’s magnificent experience. Others are the studious type always wanting to learn more.

The mutable, fire sign of Sun in Sagittarius are the adventurers, roamers, optimists that seek freedom and knowledge. They may have foot in mouth disease and believe that better things lie just around the corner.
