This transit of Uranus heralds the potential start of new and exciting relationships. This aspect can be associated with a fascinating and unique love relationship, where you will find that the person you are drawn to is quite different from the character traits that you are more accustomed too. You are seeking freedom of self-expression and also someone to share this with. Now could be a perfect time for beginning such relationships. Under the more harsh aspects of Uranus to Venus, these relationships may be short term and these people come to implement some needed change for you. Often these individuals leave a marked influence in your life. However with the trine (a more easy flow aspect), the potential for longer lasting relationships is heightened and some of these may even turn into viable and serious relationships and/or partnerships. It may begin as a friendship and then go deeper, as you seem to have interests (which may be considered uncommon) that you share. This is what makes the relationship exciting and new. Love relationships can certainly flourish under this aspect. When it comes to long standing relationships whether they be a love relationship or a close and caring friend, this transit will make things new again. Anything that has gone stale has the potential for renewal, and you can make changes that can be exciting and spontaneous. Uranus is impulsive and often brings the unexpected, so be ready for anything. You can probably lower your guard a little although the rest of the chart has to be taken into consideration as well to be sure of the strength of this aspect. This aspect often promises new and unusual relationships of importance. Life is anything but boring during this time, and you will leave this aspect feeling fresh, new and revitalized again, especially if you have been stagnated in your love relationship or with personal friendships. If Venus is found in the second house and is well aspected especially by the Sun, Jupiter and even Pluto, the finances may change for the better. The flow of money may increase and is subject to change. Luck may even follow you around. Please note however, in order for a chance of winnings through the lottery, you would have to have significant factors in the natal chart offering this potential. Remember, the natal chart tells the life’s story, and transits and progressions stimulate that potential. You may also find that you are drawn to spending a little more freely. Watch for this as overspending can become a problem, especially if Jupiter has harsh aspects connected to this one. You may feel very lucky and things seem to be going your way, and you may feel comfortable with overspending. Do not be pulled in by this thinking. You will have to keep a clear head under any condition regarding the finances, and love and romance. Life flows well however and things seem just about perfect. Enjoy this transit. It may last as long as one year. Visit www.holmastrology.com for more information on Astrology and information on the Astrological charts we offer.

For those born between 1980 and 1984, there is a conjunction between transiting Saturn and natal Neptune. These individuals were born with Neptune in the sign of Sagittarius from 20 to 29 degrees. Those born as early as 1971-1980 would have already finished this conjunction, although those born towards the end of 1980 may still be feeling these energies at work in their lives. Saturn will remain in Sagittarius until the end of 2017, so we will look at this conjunction from a Sagittarius point of view. It should be noted however, that some of this information that will be posted applies to any conjunction between Saturn and Neptune regardless of the sign your Neptune was in at the time of your birth. Sagittarius’ energies has a focus on seeing the bigger picture and it teaches us about collective principles, such as being up righteous, honest, generous and the universal truths. Sagittarius is about higher learning and teachings based on these principles. Saturn will enforce study and collective learning because of Neptune’s influence as well as lessons that teach us about reality and the art of selflessness. When this transit has completed its connection, you should be focused more in a direction where spirituality will be taught and challenged, with the aim to help you to see what is real and concrete in your life. Saturn does not work overly well with most planets and much depends on the condition of Saturn in your natal chart (challenging aspect or positive aspects). How it manifests will depend on these conditions. In some cases this combination can produce somewhat undesirable moods as your outlook can be gloomy or tainted during this transit. Confusion and self-doubt are often by-products of this, as your confidence can be low and you can become uncertain about what it taking place in your life. Reality can be contaminated by what you are thinking, what you are taking in and you may find some things upsetting. This could be termed as a reality check transit, where you will have to define what in your life is worth hanging on to. You will be forced to realize what you have manufactured through your imagination or through your misjudgements in life. What needs to be challenged? The value in this transit is that it will instill inner security and help us to learn to rely on our own resources after we have swept away the unneeded debris. The material world may not be held in as high of an important as it has been in the past, and we may replace many of our goals for material gain into goals that hold much greater relevance in our lives at this time. Our view is subject to change and we may find that we wish to take in as much as we can about the spiritual side of life and gain insight into this area. We will be very in tune with our inner requirements and material concerns just do not seem to hold true importance. We need something more and this is what may draw us to the spiritual side of life. This may not come easy as there are often times when we discover that what we deemed important in the past seems pointless and irrelevant. We search for something deeper and self-discovery may be a big part of the process. This may be challenging at times because we might not like what we see initially, but we also understand that before we can rid ourselves of these qualities or issues, we have to realize that they are there. It is best to move slow and realize that some of our views are a little cloudy right now. Making changes is okay as long as we do not go overboard. In some cases, it is best to be the viewer rather than the doer, at least until we get a clearer picture. Once we come out the other side of all this uncertainty, life could be quite different and as will we. This can be a great growth period after some struggles. Remember to enjoy the ride regardless of what is taking place. Our attitude can make this stressful or it can make this an easy ride. Life is always a learning process.

So you believe that you are a little bit different than most other people? How does that make you feel? Is this due to your belief structures? Is it because you never totally fit in during your school years? Do you feel as though you are unique in some way and separate from others? Is your path different in its unfolding than most anyone else? What is considered normal in today’s society? Are we all not different yet the same at the same time? We all live and then one day will pass from this existence. We are all born into these lives and as an evolved individual, we know that we are all the same. If we view ourselves as different, how will we ever understand the concept of oneness? We understand that if we hurt our brothers and sisters in this world, we also hurt ourselves in one way or another. We also understand that those characteristics we see in others that we do not like are either a part of our own characteristic makeup or we fear what we see, in some way. Yes…. we each all walk our own path through life, but are our paths really that different? If we look at this question from an internal point of view, we know that we are all spiritual beings currently occupying a physical body and have come into this life to fulfill our life’s experience requirements. Again, I ask, how different are we really? We walk our own path and learn in our own way but, we are all connected through our brotherhood… sisterhood…. humanhood. As mentioned earlier, what we do to others we do to ourselves. So it must be that what we do for others, we do for ourselves as well. Walk your road with confidence and dignity. Learn your own private lessons through life’s experience. Share your life with those that matter (who doesn’t matter?). Share your life with those that (on the surface) do not seem to matter, because everyone matters. We all move together. If you do not like what you see in your immediate surroundings, make creative changes so that what you see is pleasing. Much of this is created through action and through our thought process. Love the road you walk and share it with everyone you meet. This path was built to be shared and so were you!

Uranus’ energies speak of freedom of expression and growth through innovative techniques. This can be in scientific ways where the use of new technology and computers can create more structure in your life, due to the influence of Saturn. Uranus wants to break free of restrictions and anything that may be holding you back, but concrete decision making is what Saturn’s energies will offer. If this aspect pertains to your relationships, you may seek new ways of communication although you will do this in organized ways so that there is little chance of disruption. You may want to make creative changes with your children, if applicable, where you may mix your styles of discipline and add a little more room for them to explore their lives. You will still want some organization in the process but you may seek to let them take their own steps with perhaps a little less restraint from you. You might be recognizing that they are becoming of age where you have to loosen up the reigns a little. This is a great time to do this, especially if you have given little or no leeway in the past. You may now find that they are rebelling more than you like. Life requires some structure but life also needs growth. Sextiles always suggest opportunities to make creative changes. If this involves your occupation, you may find that your superiors seem to notice your past efforts, and you may even be rewarded with an offer for promotion or at least acknowledgement for all your hard work. The new techniques that we discussed earlier may prove very beneficial in the work place. You may be able to keep the work flow going without any hitches or find new ways to bring more precision into the working environment. This will be favourably received. This is a very positive aspect and the worst thing to do is to not allow these new innovative ideas to come to the surface. Do not remain in a rut or stagnated. Make some changes. It might just be for the best. Saturn does seek security and stability but sometimes life stagnates because of this. Now is the time to move forward with your ideas and promote your cause. Your ideologies may need some structure and you can’t go out and jump at the first prospect that comes your way. This is not advisable, but if you give these ideas some thought and they appear that they might make some areas of life easier or may create new possibilities, than perhaps you should move ahead. This is a favourable position for these two planets, and you can use their energies to serve not only other people’s causes but yours as well.

This is a time of awakening for many. We recognize that we are on a specific path of our own choosing. We know that we create with our thoughts. We are open to understanding how the ego operates and the hold it tries to maintain on us. We can recognize ego’s voice, although it can certainly be manipulative. Have you ever wondered why you chose to return as the person you are? Have you ever questioned why you picked this specific time and why it is so significant? Why now during such uncertainty and turmoil? Each of us has our part in the process. Many may feel that their part is minor, yet the overall compounded contributions by each of us can have a profound effect. There will be times that we have to remind ourselves that we have chosen this life with all of its ups and downs. Each event, somehow, leads to our development and growth. We must honour ourselves and live up to our own personal standards. We must be persistent in our efforts yet accept that there will be times that we will sway. This is okay; we are at this moment in human form. We will always find our way back on path when we silence our mind and open our hearts. If we doubt ourselves, we can question, “Is this ego’s voice?” or “Will this assist me?”. We will always find reliability answers when we confront issues with these questions if we are honest with ourselves and open. Our reality, which we are constantly creating, is but our focus in this moment, a formulated thought. Pay close attention to what it is that you are creating. Remind yourself of who you truly are, a spiritual being residing in a physical body. You are as powerful as any other creation because you are part of Source energy. We have a part in assisting with the alleviation of the struggle of those less fortunate, those less understanding, those that are caught up in ego’s battle for control throughout human existence?

When transiting Jupiter makes a trine to your Natal Sun, this can be a most positive experiences. The trine can last as much as 3 to 4 months if Jupiter goes retrograde during the aspect. You can give this aspect a fairly wide orb of influence stretching out as much as 5 to 7 degrees approaching and still being in effect as much as 3 to 4 degrees separating. Jupiter brings with it good luck and opportunities and this could manifest in many areas of life; much depends on which house Jupiter will be transiting through as well as the house in which your Sun is located. These will be areas of life that will be generating good fortune and important issues into your life. You may find that you are feeling self-confident during this time and you feel as though you can accomplish anything you put your mind to. Your optimism helps to make some of these things materialize. Sometimes goals and objectives that you have been working on come to fruition during this time frame. It is also a great time when it comes to financial matters, that is unless you have other mitigating factors affecting this area of life. Unless Saturn is involved in a negative sense, you have a lot of push in your favour but you should make sure that you take advantage of these opportunities, as some will feel so comfortable that you just want to wait for opportunities to come to you. This is a time to broaden your material horizons and things may fall into place quite nicely. Just watch for overspending as Jupiter tends to exaggerate and expand anything it touches including spending. In general, your health should be quite robust during this time as well and if you are not looking after yourself properly now might be the time to push yourself a little and improve conditions. There are those that put on weight during this time as once again Jupiter expands. This is particularly true if Jupiter is passing over your ascendant. Exercise is suggested especially if you can find ways to enjoy the great outdoors. Jupiter loves expansive and open places and nature is right up its energies’ alley. Jupiter also has its connections to travel--usually long distance travel. If you are not able to travel you can do so in your mind. Jupiter is attached to higher learning and religious doctrines, and anything spiritual may have a greater than normal appeal to you. At present, Jupiter is in the sign of Libra and will remain in Libra most of this year (2017). Libra is a balancing sign and is connected to partnership, enjoyment and socializing. This could be a great year to make things happen in relationships of importance. You may decide to get married or engaged during this time and in most cases the timing is good. Enjoy life. This is part of our purpose here on earth and this period suggests that you do just that. Have fun, share your life and seek harmony and peace. You can’t ask for any more than that. Enjoy!

With the New Moon falling in Aquarius on January 27, 2017 in our area of the world, we will be provided with an opportunity to make a new start with something that will manifest over time and help us move forward in our objectives. These objectives might focus around humanitarian concerns beginning with your friends and neighbors with the Aquarius influence. We might as well begin close to home or even in the home. Aquarius is a forward thinking sign. Perhaps it is a little ahead of its time, but always thinking in terms of helping others (as well as themselves) move out from places or situations which have stagnated them. This can touch on various actions but mostly likely will include manoeuvring yourself into a position that might have some impact on the world around you. Make sure peace and equality are high on the agenda and that whatever you are trying to push forward with is beneficial for all those involved. Sometimes making changes can be difficult, but they are usually necessary. Remaining in a difficult and stagnated situation serves little purpose. Aquarius’ purpose it to make you realize that there is more out there waiting for you and you do not have to be satisfied with anything less than what you rightfully deserve. This could include a relationship that you have been putting off because you just don’t think that you have what it takes, or a career move that frightens you because of your belief that you have potential shortcomings. If you have thought these things through and you are only holding back because of ego downplaying your abilities, you might just want to make that decision and take the plunge. Aquarius wants to break free of restriction and find new avenues of expression. It dares you to walk away from what feels comfortable, has now gone stale and offers little new potential. Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius along together with Saturn. These two planets’ energies do work a little against one another. Uranus is the trend breaker, the freedom seeker, the creator of the new wave movement, while Saturn is the one that wishes things to remain the same and is uncomfortable with anything new or untested. Saturn can be rather restrictive and although it does offer stability, it also provides you with reality and something that is firm and has a foundation. You may have to juggle between these two alternatives during this important decision making which falls under the influence of the New Moon in Aquarius. Watch for jumping for the sake of jumping. Always do your homework. Rash behaviour and impulsive actions have been known to be associated with the energies of Aquarius. As long as all the “i”s have been dotted and the “t”s have been crossed, you should be in a position to make your move or stay for that matter. The choice is always yours. Astrology points the way but you are in the driver’s seat of your life. This New Moon falls at 8 degrees Aquarius and any planet in your chart along with any angles at this degree (you can go as far back as 5 degrees of any sign and as far forward as 11 degrees of any sign) will be influenced by this New Moon. By taking into consideration the house position of the New Moon and any angles or planetary aspects that enhance this New Moon, you will get a clearer picture of how these energies might unfold and what areas of life will be involved for you personally.

There might be many who read the title of this post and refuse to read on. Ravaged implies a world and its occupants that has been severely damaged and devastated. It and they truly have been by the hands of some of earth’s inhabitants. There is always hope in salvaging our world and the quality of our existence here. Some say that we have gone beyond the tipping point but I refuse to live in hopelessness. In focusing on the inhabitants, their actions are unpredictable in terms of peace. There are many that walk this earth that have different viewpoints than we do. They say that the optimist or those that are hopeful see the glass as half full; however, the pessimist or those that are doubtful see the glass as half empty. Our perspective not only manifests in our world but it also creates on a constant basis. So what can you do to change the course of our world? Take a look at your personal world. What is your part to play? It all begins at home. How do you treat those close to you, those that you love? We lead by example, not by mere words. Action is what unlocks doors. Action is what other see and ultimately what can motivate them. Our torn world can certainly recuperate. There are many workers doing their part. The higher our vibration, the greater positive impact we will have on this world. It is not what you can do to change things; it is what you ARE doing right now to create change. Do not wait for someone else to lead the way. Be the catalyst. You are not at the mercy of life. Anything and everything begins with you.

The Sun moved into the sign of Aquarius on the 20th of January in 2017. Please see out post from January 23 which we are continuing today. Aquarius individuals are broad minded and have a very liberal approach to life. They believe that there should be no segregation when it comes to ethnicity, race, or cultural background. They view everyone as equals and their aim is to awaken the masses from their complacency and from the accepted norm. They can be a little over the top when seeking this in their relationships. Those individuals that do not wish static in their lives may, from time to time, be a little dismayed by their Aquarius friend’s approach. These Aquarians will usually back off once their message has been received however. Many Aquarius appear rather astute in their mannerisms and they appeal to the masses, as everyone matters to them. They can seem quite cold in their emotional response and this gives them a reputation of being detached and unaffected by life’s emotional dramas. Much of this will also depend on where the Moon is located in their chart as well as what sign it is in. There is something unusual and unique about the average Aquarian. They are their own individual and will not attempt to mix in with the general public by matching their clothing style, mannerisms or belief structures. They are different and they know this, and they are usually quite comfortable with this. They also feel that in some way they are special, although this is usually not based on ego. They believe that everyone has something special and unique to offer and that all answers can be found by looking within. They are great freedom seekers and do not like to be hemmed in, in any way. They are ruled by Uranus, known as the awakener and co-ruled by Saturn. They need to walk their own path and are steadfast in their approach, fixated in their opinions and often quite sure of themselves unless there are other mitigating factors in the birth chart. They are reliable and a good companion and will bring people into their circle that they hardly even know. They are likable, friendly, yet distant and often are non-committed unless they have their freedom. Friendship is very important to the average Aquarian and they will seek out those with like minds and share their stories with those that are willing to listen. At times, they can be demanding although generally they offer others the same freedom that they seek. In general as romantics, they may leave a bit to be desired although you will have to look at the overall condition of the natal chart as well as the placement of Venus and Mars and any emphasis of the fifth house to confirm this. They are drawn to almost anyone although they love communication and open talk. As a result, they work well with those that have many air signs. Gemini individuals are very open and dialogue between these two signs can be uplifting and interesting for those that are seeking progressive messages. Some Aquarians do not do well with those individuals that are strong in their emotional nature, as Aquarians seem to have difficulty understanding emotions. They depend on the rational mind although many are intuitive and go by instinct. They are focused on progress and aim to lift themselves out of complacency and will help others to do the same. Open your door to an Aquarian and you will have a friend for life. Visit www.holmastrology.com for more information on Astrology and information on the Astrological charts we offer.

What is your main focus in life? What are you future plans in life? Will you choose to remain in the shadows of your former self, or will you rise to the occasion and fulfill or meet your own personal dreams? Your life is a reflection of what you believe is attainable. It is a reflection of where you place your expectations. What are your limitations? Do limitations actually stem from outside of self? Are you goals within your reach or have you place limitations on yourself? Have you erected barriers to stop yourself from reaching your goals because of conscious or unconscious reasons? Remember that your thoughts and attitudes can be your catalyst or they can be your barriers. Your thoughts of barriers and lack of self worth are what stand in the way. Nothing else holds you back. You are not at the mercy of others unless you allow this. You always have command of your attitude and outlook. Your life is meant to be lived from the highest vantage point possible. It is our thoughts that alter our direction, because we own each thought and believe it to be real. We are not our thoughts. We are not our bodies. Following our beliefs blindly is a choice. We are the one that dwells within. We are the energy that listens to the busy mind. We are the one who is connected to Source energy. At our fingertips, we have always had everything that we need for this moment. Step forward, look within and find yourself.
