VENTURING WITHIN There are many of us who believe or at least question the potential for having lived in previous lifetimes.  Reincarnation is a valid question. Some of us no longer question this concept and live by this concept.    Many privately believe that this is not the first time around on earth and that we have experienced many previous lifetimes.  We also believe that many of those individuals we share our current life experiences have accompanied us previously. They have chosen to return with us to experience and learn life lessons together once again.   This is part of what we will call “venturing within”.  We know or at least believe in the possibility that we have experienced many lifetimes prior to this one. If this is the case, who are we really and what are we capable of achieving in this life?    Are we to experience a mundane life experience or are we here to create change or do something that is extraordinary compared to day-to-day survival living?    We may have chosen a mundane life experience in this incarnation.  Perhaps in a previous or several previous incarnations we choose a more action-packed experience and now we just want to relax and not go too deep with experiences.  On the contrary, we may have picked a life where we are the motivator of others, where we hold the torch of knowing to assist others through their journey.  We may have chosen a difficult life, perhaps burdened by health issues, or captivated by the insight of others.  The potential life experience is limitless.   If we choose to go deeper and find out through discovery either from the past or by what lies ahead, we will need to go deeper and mediate on this focus.  We will need to ask for advice from deeper sources that have an understanding that much goes on beneath the surface of our lives.  We only have the capability of understanding through human interpretation, but we also have a link to the higher realms which exists instinctively within our perception.    Many understand that we are not alone and have guides through our life’s journey.  Some guides stay with us throughout our life, or so it is believed, while others guides come and go according to our needs and growth.    On a much deeper level, our core self is something well beyond what our human understanding can recognize.  It is much more knowing and will assist us when we listen.  So, when we are feeling lost or disoriented, there is always assistance available. It comes through many different channels.   Opening the door and venturing within means the door will never close again. This is the passage to whatever we seek.  One step inside is a giant step towards understanding.  Don’t hesitate at the threshold for long. Step forward as the wisdom is waiting for you.   #astrology #HolmAstrology #BarrieAstrologer #OntarioAstrologer #Astrologer #lifelessons #spirituality #themoment #spiritualjourney #schooloflife #venturingwithin #wisdom #reincarnation #knowledge #guides #innerself #newblogpost   If you have comments, questions or would like to commission a chart, please send us a message via www.holmastrology.com/contact-u s  or holmastrology@gmail.com     Visit www.holmastrology.com  for more information on Astrology and information on the Astrological charts we offer.   Holm Astrology also offers individual intuitive readings or group parties.

Transiting Uranus Opposition Natal Neptune The individuals experiencing the Opposition between Transiting Uranus and Natal Neptune would have to be part of the generation with Neptune in Sagittarius. The years of birth would begin late 1970 through to late 1984 (some may have Neptune in Scorpio through parts of 1984).  You will have to check your ephemeris to see the location of Neptune on your date of birth.    The area of life involved with transit Uranus, depending on the house it is transiting through, needs change, and will experience an awakening or a realization and the desire for freedom through some type of evolution taking hold in your life.    Neptune is quite spiritual in its nature, and opens door through visualization, meditation, psychic awareness and spiritual unfoldment.  As you can imagine, this can easily be a period of awakening and some form of spiritualization for those seeking to make more connection to the deep essence of life.   Uranus stays in one sign for about 7 years, and if it goes into retrograde, it can easily remain in orb of Neptune for up to and including one year.  However, Uranus, known as the awakener, has a direct impact when it is direct to Neptune.  As a result, if your Natal Neptune is at 2° 15’ Sagittarius, the exact Opposition would be when it hits this position in the sign of Gemini.  If tuned in, you will feel its influence as it approaches and see its ramifications near the exact time it is direct.  Then after direct contact comes the understanding of its energies over the next several months.   Neptune tends to dissolve anything it touches and pushes for spiritual understanding to take place.  Uranus wants to be rid of anything that no longer suits the evolutionary call and is quite happy to take the mystical approach, although it may not totally understand what is taking hold.  In some cases, revolution, transformation and uprootedness can take hold and likely in unexpected ways. It needs to be understood that this overall unfolding is quite overdue.  It may not be clear why this is happening to you, but your eyes will be open and a part of you is ready to take the required steps.   In many cases, other people are involved in the ongoing process.  Oppositions always involve other people and their opinions or their suggestions.  You may have to make decisions based on what they say, because you may not be clear on where to go and where you might be headed. You may fear the unknown territory that you are entering although change is what is required.    Uranus opposition natal Neptune needs you to look deep within and find the answers to your dilemma. Guides may assist but you will make your way forward.  It will not be an easy route because you are likely comfortable where you are, yet uncomfortable at the same time. Some people have a hard time moving from what is familiar.  The new is approaching; be ready for dynamic change, awakening and disruption to the so-called norm.   #astrology #HolmAstrology #astrologyposts #astrologer #BarrieAstrologer #OntarioAstrologer #astrologersofinstagram #astroworld #astrocommunity #astroinsights #astroinfo #horoscope #zodiacsigns #OracleReadings #transits #aspects #Uranus #awakening #opposition #challenges #change #Neptune #spirituality #newblogpost   Are you interested in learning Astrology?

Acknowledge You Are Human Stress and anxiety if left to unchecked can develop even further into dis-ease!   A better approach would be to deal with the stress in life to eliminate anxiety and therefore future physical illness.  Mental stress will take its toll.   It is not self-centred or selfish to care for our own needs.  We cannot fulfil our obligations to those who depend on us if we do not care for our own needs.  We cannot feed our children from an empty cupboard.  We cannot emotionally feed our dependents from an exhausted, anxious heart and mind.   Some disease is a direct result of long-term stress. If we have allowed a disease to progress unchecked, we should never hesitate to seek professional assistance for guidance and healing.   By making conscious changes in our lives and with care to heal the disease, we will have the tools we need to heal and grow and continue our life’s journey.  Focus on good health and aligning practice to produce this are key.   Acknowledge you are human, reaffirm your belief in yourself and step forward trusting. You have the strength and the courage to release and let go.  Asking for assistance is not a weakness, it is strength.   You are stronger than you think and nothing that is presented along life’s road stands in the way unless we allow this or believe this.    #astrology #HolmAstrology #BarrieAstrologer #OntarioAstrologer #spirituality #spiritualjourney #inthemoment #schooloflife #psychic #OracleReadings #lifelessons #change #lifesjourney #resolution #beinghuman #mindbodysoul #peaceofmind #believeinyourself #newblogpost   Are you interested in learning Astrology?

Jupiter's aspects are almost always considered a positiveas they creates expansion and growth on many levels. Aspects to Neptune We are working on this page and will be adding more Neptune aspects in the future. Neptune is a mysterious planet, ruling the sign Pisces. NEPTUNE TRANSITS THROUGH THE ZODIAC Neptune is the planet of illumination, inspiration, intuition and psychic access. It has also been tied to ambiguity, confusion, dismay, vulnerability and not seeing things as they truly are. Neptune is the planet of psychic awareness even under the most distressful aspects and can be illuminated but twisted when in challenging situations. Neptune is spiritual, can be religious, and will enhance your perception and any psychic inclinations you may have. As it makes contacts with planetary energies within the framework of your natal chart, it will illuminate the energies of the planet and merge its emeries with the planet in question, especially when a conjunction is taking hold. In some cases, Neptune will help solve issues that have been plaguing the individual especially when aligned in positive aspect to Mercury or Jupiter. In contrast, if Neptune is making a hard aspect like a square or opposition to Mercury, you will want to make sure that you are not blowing things out of proportion, and you should ensure that you are seeing things as they truly are. Help from outside sources is often suggested especially if your Natal Mercury is under stressful aspects to other planets particularly to Neptune in the birth chart. Transiting Neptune to the Sun or your North Node can bring forward goals and your life’s path can be highly attuned to deeper insight, and assistance may surface from outside sources that you may not have deemed likely in your life. You may have visions or dreams that can open doors that have been closed or not even apparent for many years. Neptune can instigate psychic energies that are straight from the light and into your consciousness for the first time in your life or open channels greater than those available before this time. As we write this, Neptune will move into Aries next year (2025). Perhaps this might be a time when we move ahead with our own objectives in a more intuitive and spiritual quest and change the course of our own personal lives slowly as its energies unfold. Neptune also has to do with talent as it rules Pisces and the twelfth house. Music, acting, art, etc. can become highlighted as Neptune opens pathways that have been closed prior to now. Neptune can be magical in its delivery when well aspected to natal positions. It may bring energies you never believed could take hold in life. Neptune in Aries sounds personal and that is just what it is. In the past 14-15 years, Neptune was in Pisces and what we were taught during this stay in Pisces can be used in personal terms. This can be a time of awakening to your higher self, stimulating your intuitive faculties and bringing to life what you never deemed possible. Use Neptune’s energies to the best of your abilities and uncover the mysteries of life. Specific Aspects Unless otherwise specified, the following aspects are by Transiting Neptune.

Transits Transits in Astrology Our birth chart or natal chart is a snapshot of the heavens at the moment of birth with the earth in the centre. The earth is surrounded by all the planets. This snapshot of the heavens (the birth chart) remains intact as long as you live, nothing changes. The moment after birth, however, the planets (although frozen in the natal chart) begin to move again which are call the transiting planets. On most chart diagrams, the transiting planets are located on the outside of the circle and the natal planets are located in the centre of the chart diagram. Each transiting planet moves at a different speed. They can also move in different directions (direct – moving forward; stationary – appear to not move at all; and retrograde – appearing to move backwards). Again, the moving planets after the moment of birth are called Transiting and the deciphering of these placements and the angles they make (aspects) to the natal planets and astrology chart angles (MC, Ascendant, IC and DC) tell the current and future story of your life. There are many aspects these transiting planets can make to the natal (birth) planets (both Major and Minor aspects). Some of these aspects are considered challenging but teach valuable lessons. Other aspects are easy flow. Much depends on what angles and planets are involved. When a transiting planet, for example, makes an angle of 0 to 10 degrees separation (moving away) to a natal planet, the energies merge and become one. 0 to 10 degrees is called a conjunction which tells of an emphasis and it elevates the energies of the planets involved (or the angles it touches). The conjunction is most strong when the two plants are 0 degrees apart. As they begin to separate, the energies begin to weaken and usually within 2-3 degrees past direct, the energies are basically gone. Saturn, which is the exception, does last longer and is often at its peak 2 degrees past direct. Everything associated with Saturn seems to be delayed. Another variable with the transits and what they are saying involves the house placement that the planets are found in. For example, when a planet is moving through the seventh house, the seventh house matters will be involved. You not only look at the transiting planet’s house but also look at the house that the natal (same) planet is located in as well as the house any aspecting planet is located in. You also have to look at the natal house placement that the transiting planet was located in within the birth chart. In other words, if Uranus is transiting the seventh house, the seventh house is enhanced or activated. If Uranus is aspecting the Sun in the 10th house, the 10th house is also highlighted. If Uranus is natally in the fourth house then you also have to take into consideration what the fourth house signifies. You would be looking at the 7th house, the 10th house and the 4th house to get a full picture of the aspect between Uranus and the Sun. When delineating transits, it is important that you understand the duration of the transits. All the outer planets have a greater impact on your life because they move slowly. Pluto can have as much as a 3-4 year impact on your life. The most powerful will always be when planets are direct. Direct contact can last as long as one to two years. Faster moving planets have very quick influences and as a result, move out of influence quickly. There is no lasting impact from the inner planets. Transiting Planets in the Signs We will take a look at Transiting Planets in the various Astrological signs. This is a work in progress that we have just started. Check back regularly for updates. We are working on this information and will be adding more soon. Pluto in the Signs Back to Astrology 101
