Uranus Uranus Uranus, the planet of revolution and sudden often drastic change, can often causes havoc in people’s lives when in transit. It is the ruler of Aquarius the water barer, and is commonly known as the awakener. Its influence functions as a huge factor in making necessary changes in your life. Uranus makes changes in areas of life that have outgrown their purpose and require alteration. Uranus held to liberate us from anything that could be considered traditional or restrictive in nature. It creates a desire for the new and unique and often produces this in unexpected and in unconventional ways. Uranus moves through each sign in approximately 7 years and takes a full 84 years to circle the zodiac. During its movement it creates quick results and a feeling of liberation and freedom from restriction. Uranus governs universal brotherhood and is humanitarian in its nature. It will force you to have an honest look at life's issues and then make necessary changes. If you choose not to adhere to what is being proposed, it often acts in a much more abrupt manner and in a manner that will be often out of your control. Uranus is rebellious in its nature and pushes us into a need for independent thinking with a flair for the unconventional and unique. Uranus also has been known to produce shocking awakening when the eyes have been closed to what is required. It governs universal truths and intuition and anyone with strong Uranus tendencies has a unique way of translating these truths, quite often in an abrupt matter-of-fact fashion Uranus’s action is unpredictable, imaginative and also very inspirational. It is the higher octave of Mercury and therefore is considered a planet linked to the mental process. It deals a lot with potential outcomes and is future oriented. Uranus pushes us to come out into the open and express our uniqueness and creativity as well as advanced mental quickness and agility, similar to Mercury , although the thinking process may be considered bohemian in its nature. It rules electricity and anything electronic, such as computers and technology in its newest innovation. Uranus is anything but conventional and depending where it is found in your chart this will be where you choose to reveal your originality and uniqueness. If, for example, you have Uranus closely linked to the ascendant in the first house , your originality will shine through. Many would consider you a bit of an eccentric, and you would not be ashamed of this flair which makes you stand apart from the crowd. Uranus will push you to be different and to be proud of it too.

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.

Information on energies related to Aspects to Moon ASPECTS TO THE MOON The Moon represents the mothering instinct and is linked to the feminine energies within each of us. The Moon deals with primal emotional needs. It is where we nurture ourselves and take care of ourselves on an emotional level. It is where we feel safe within, where we emotionally react to life problems and also find the answers. It provides us with a safe haven, a comfortable and secure emotional foundation that feels like home. It is where we can go and reside in a gentle manner away from the intrusive forces of life and secure a place for ourselves when in times of strife. We could call this the emotional home or safe haven. The moon represents our instincts. SPECIFIC ASPECTS The Moon is the fastest moving bodies, changing signs every 2 ½ days. The Sun and the Moon are not considered planets, as such, and are known as luminaries. The changing effects of the Moon, moving through the signs, has little lasting impact on our lives and as a result we do not do aspects by the Transiting Moon. To find out more about how the outer Transits affect your Natal Moon (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto), we invite you to investigate the aspects from these planets to your Natal Moon. Transits from Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto to your Natal Moon will create a powerful influence in you lasting up to three years. Back to Aspects

Saturn Retrograde Saturn Retrograde Saturn has a 28 year cycle and remains in each zodiac sign for approximately 2 and ½ years. During its cycle, Saturn moves into retrograde on a regular basis and about 15 degrees of each astrological sign experiences the retrograde motion of Saturn. To show the contrast of the energies of a retrograde planet, we will look at Jupiter. Jupiter often brings good luck and expansion in its direct motion but when in retrograde motion as discussed in Jupiter Retrograde , its energies are similar to Saturn while it is in direct motion. Saturn’s energies in direct motion are restrictive. Its energies are challenging and can make life difficult. Saturn is known as the teacher and disciplinarian of the Zodiac. On the other hand, Saturn’s retrograde energies work similar to Jupiter’s energies when in direct motion. As a result, the extreme energies apparent with Saturn in its direct motion become somewhat softened. Saturn direct normally deals with past issues but while in retrograde, it can and will open doors to new things that somehow we may feel familiar with, even though they are new to us. Some Astrologers link Saturn with diseases that have longevity and the duration of their affects are sometimes lengthened due to the influence of Saturn. When Saturn is retrograde in motion, any recovery process with these ailments may become sped up and often the individuals that are involved feel more carefree and worry-less about these conditions in their lives. This is beneficial as any focus or concentration can enhance illness and draw even more energy into these areas. In many cases, disease can stem from adverse reactions to life’s events and it is wise not to allow obstructions or hard lessons to become personal or to own them. This free flow attitude can provide us with ease of moving beyond these experiences. Saturn is often linked to business in some way including searching out a new career, entering into a study program or beginning a new business. During the course of transiting Saturn turning retrograde, it is wise not to enter into any news enterprises or business dealings. It is best to wait for Saturn to turn direct before moving forward in business related activities, even if you may feel somewhat positive about the outcome. Utilize this retrograde time to review your plans and make sure you are ready to move ahead. When Saturn turns direct (even though things might stagnate for a little while or be slowed down) another planet in transit will come along to start the process of moving forward. Check to see which house Saturn is transiting through in your birth chart as this will provide you with some specifics. Also check to see which house natal (birth) Saturn occupies. These houses will both be areas of life affected by the retrograde motion of Saturn. When Saturn is direct in its motion, these areas will be avenues you can move ahead in although it is wise to take things slowly as you move forward. Saturn insists on structure and a solid foundation. If Saturn is poorly aspected in your birth chart, the house where it is situated in may require additional hard work and a conscious effort to resolve any issues related to that area of life. Since Saturn often points towards a dominant individual in your life (sometimes the most restrictive and strict parent or an authority figure in our life), Saturn retrograde in the birth (natal) chart has been associated with that particular individual somehow missing in your life. The most authoritarian parent could be away often perhaps on business or actually missing from your life in early childhood. Wherever Saturn is found in a chart, whether it is in retrograde motion or direct motion, this is often an area of life that requires more work and challenging conditions to overcome. However, it should be pointed out that Saturn is the educator as well as the disciplinarian in the chart, so it also rewards hard work and diligent efforts.

Pisces This is the last astrological placement of the zodiac. Pisces is said to contain segments of all the previous signs and may be our final step in our earthly evolution, depending on the level of awareness attained in this lifetime. Pisceans are known to be dreamy to those individuals who are less sensitive and prophetic in their nature. Pisces individuals display signs of psychic ability and have mystical leanings. There is something far away about many Pisces individuals and they seem to intuitively sense the emotional undercurrents that surround them. Piscean individuals are usually very compassionate and sensitive people. They have a soft spot for anyone undergoing life’s sometimes difficult experiences. They also have concerns for the underdog and go out of their way to assist others in need. They are extremely self-sacrificing and some can become vulnerable to the harsher side of life. There are those that would take advantage of their caring nature and exploit them. As these individuals mature, they sometimes learn hard lessons from the “users” in life and eventually learn to discriminate between those that genuinely require their help and those that just take advantage of their kind heart. Those with a strong Sun in Pisces simply need to have a purpose. They need a sense of worth and a driving force to push them towards their goal of spirituality. Life's lessons are understood as being prerequisites in this journey and many will martyr themselves for the sake of others. If they become caught up in unfortunate or misleading adventures in life, some will resort to the use of alcohol and drugs to escape the hard cold facts that life can dictate. Some resort to living in an imaginary world of their own and build walls of protection so their extreme sensitivity is not invaded. Many have a creative flair and music, the arts and creative writing are just a few of the boundless areas where this magical force can be expressed. When in love, they love deeply and are considered selfless and will orientate themselves in service to others, on a high level of spirituality. When in focus with their inner journey, they feel on purpose and the intuitive side can reach mystical proportions. Many develop psychic abilities as they mature into their role in life, although some become lost in confusion. Often sparks of the imagination can run rampant if not kept under control. The imaginary qualities linked to this sign are the motivating factor behind their driving force towards a spiritual connection and their inner strength as long as they are in focus. Life’s lessons often include finding their mission, creating a sense of self-worth and a meaning to their lives that goes beyond self. Through meditation and the practice of selfless living, many will reach heights unimaginable for those on a more physical, material journey. Pisces has been linked to the purity in spirituality and we can all learn valuable life lessons through this often misunderstood sign. Astrology 101 Pisces is ruled by Neptune and the twelfth house . Amethyst is the stone associates with Pisces. Other stones associates with Pisces include Ametrine, Aquamarine, Bloodstone, Blue Lace Agate, Fluorite, Kambaba Jasper, Lapis Lazuli, Smithsonite, and Turquoise Return to Sun Sign Page

We really don’t know where we are headed, yet we can always hold our heads high and make our way through the currents of change presented to us daily. Life moves us along with or without our approval. We juggle our objectives and set courses for the road ahead without really knowing where that road might take us. Our objectives are likely feasible and attainable, yet it is okay to reach for higher goals as the higher we aim the higher we can reach. You may question what is the purpose for striving to achieve or to pushi ahead in life. After all, life is uncertain. It is human nature to need goals and objectives to strive for as it gives us tangible purpose. We learn perseverance in dealing with the different climates life presents us with and need to be adaptable as we coming to terms with where life is taking us. We find solace in those that provide support and tell us to hang on. We maneuver our way forward and we learn to listen to the advice of our inner voice and those who care about us. We will learn to walk with our heads high through difficulties and we gain immensely through adversity. There certainly will be times when life smiles at us and we must remind ourselves to relax and enjoy these times. Life is a continual lesson, a continual current of change. We have gained inner strength particularly in the darkest moments. This is a test of resilience. A test of faith in others and ourselves. Count your blessings and acknowledge your accomplishments. Believe in yourself. Listen to advice and know that you are never alone. You can depend on life teaching you whatever you need to know and then moving you in the right direction, always! #astrology #HolmAstrology #astrologer #spirituality #themoment #spiritualjourney #schooloflife #psychic #Medium #innerstrength #adversity #lifestruggles #learning #growth #resilience #obstacles #inthemoment #newblogpost Holm Astrology not only offers Astrology charts but also offers individual intuitive readings or group parties.

Follow us on Facebook , Instagram and X 1 day ago Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars Rated 5 out of 5 stars. 5.0 | 1 Rating Transiting Jupiter can have a profound effect while making a sextile to your natal Mars. The timing usually lasts about 6 to 8 weeks depending on whether Jupiter moves into its retrograde cycle. Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars Currently (August 2024) Transiting Jupiter will move into retrograde on October 8, 2024, and it will be at 21° in the sign of Gemini. Its stationary period is about one day. This stationary period is very intense for those who have a planet at this degree, especially those that have major aspects within 1-3° direct from the natal chart to this position. Jupiter’s influence, while in retrograde, will last many months and those affected will feel its intensity when it crosses the degrees of influence in their personal natal chart. We are discussing the sextile in this post, but the trine is also similar to the effects of the sextile, and both are energies we hope and wait for. The sextile implies opportunities that will be presented and that we need to act to take advantage of. The sextile is a positive aspect and indicates openings and prospects for when things might flow in a more constructive manner. Jupiter is the most opportunistic planet in Astrology. Jupiter provides growth, expansion, good luck, rewarding experiences and allows things to move forward. When applied to challenging situations like someone experiencing a fatal disease or illness with no prospect of recovery, it can also indicate the ending of situations pushing things ahead so that no further suffering takes place. With Transiting Jupiter Sextile Mars, we have a great push to advance in some manner, depending on the houses involved in our chart. The houses are areas of life, and this will be where these energies are initiated. Wherever Mars is located in the Natal Chart, this will be the area which offers opportunities for growth and expansion. If, for example, Mars is tied to the MC (midheaven), this will suggest that opportunities in abundance may lie within the scope of your career or ties in with your objectives and path in life. Your status may change and this flows in a smoother manner. With the sextile, however, you must take advantage of the energies at hand, or they may not manifest in the manner that they could if you were to push for results. If Jupiter is travelling through your 11th house and it makes a Sextile to your Mars/MC’s position, you may receive help from groups or from friends to make things happen. If Jupiter is travelling through the 12th house and still making this sextile to your Mars/MC, assistance may come from unknown sources, or you may receive help from the subconscious or other realms of influence. This may be hidden from you or perhaps you do not know about this energy or where it has come from. Transiting Jupiter Sextile Natal Mars is an aspect of great expansive, beneficial energy. It is an energy, however, that you must work with. The benefit will not simply fall in your lap. Take advantage if this transit is affecting your chart. A professional Astrologer can help you understand the potential with this aspect and other aspects forming angles within the natal chart. #astrology #HolmAstrology #astrologyposts #astrologer #astrologersofinstagram #astroworld #zodiacsigns #psychic #OracleReadings #transits #aspects #sextile #JupiterSextileMars #expansion #opportunity #push #energy #newblogpost Holm Astrology not only offers Astrology charts but also offers individual intuitive readings or group parties.

In the face of opposition, we can find ways to maneuver our way through, and with persistence, our efforts pay off. We all have certainly lost some battles or at least that is the way it felt, but we gained experience from these encounters. We also feel like we have won some of these predicaments. We have achieved heights we never thought were possible and gained inner strength and resilience. PERSISTENCE PAYS DIVIDENDS For those overwhelmed by their current journey, we still say, “never give up”. Persistence pays dividends. Fight through any adversity. Make your way forward one step at a time and find a resolution or a path around whatever stands in your way. It is worth the fight regardless of the outcome as you will begin to realize that there is a core of strength within that you may have never realized before. We are resilient by nature and can and will withstands adversity if we decide to. Keep up the good fight and know that you can and will not only persist but overcome on some level, even if it may be a change of attitude. You are stronger than you realize, and you have inner resources available when you believe in yourself. Thought process, belief structure and expectations mold our lives. You will persevere; you will find a way around or over any obstruction and walk away a better person because of it. Life is the teacher, and we are the students. #astrology #HolmAstrology #astrologyposts #astrologer #schoolofLife #inthemoment #themoment #spirituality #spiritualjourney #change #innerstrength #persistence #persist #persistencepays #keepgoing #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.
