To advance our cause (which differs from one person to the next), we must believe in ourselves. We cannot move ahead with our objectives if we don’t believe in what we are doing or if we have an attitude that we cannot accomplish what we set out to do. Our intentions must be positive. With the belief that we will succeed, we advance in our own time and in our own way. It is our own personal beliefs that either hold us back or promote growth and advancement. It serves no purpose to sit back. We hold the key to unlock the door moving forward. Not all our goals and ideas will reach maturity but with a little push and belief in ourselves, we move forward. Build on positivity no matter how things currently look and no matter what past failures you have experienced. Step forward allowing for twists and turns along the way, but advance. Only you hold yourself back! Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

The Sun moves from the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer into the Fixed Fire sign of Leo on July 22, 2022. Leo is an energetic, playful, dramatic, and bold sign. Leo’s intensions are always noble, and all stems from the heart. Leo has a strong ego and relies on self as they are often noted as being a leader not a follower. They can be bursting with confidence and are quite charming and full of fun. Leo in love give all of themselves, but also wish to have a partner that they can look up to. Leo needs stimulation and often enjoys taking trips, the outdoors and wants to take part in recreational activities. They are very spontaneous and may act with little forethought, being very much in the moment. Leo is often found to be the center of attention and likes applause and recognition for what they do. They need and love a pat on the back for their effort and this recognition goes a long way. Leos’ attitude is optimistic, and their disposition is quite cheerful. Their intentions are noble. Happy Solar Return to our loving Leo friends! Our next astrology post will contain upcoming transits for our Leo readers. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

We must always remember that our thoughts stem from within and we can ultimately steer them in any direction we desire. We are not at the mercy of these thoughts, but it may seem that way at times. We struggle when we are captive of these ideas and their constant barrage that create conflict. This can go on for long periods of time, even years for some, as they live within the clutches of thoughts. The conflict continues for as long as it takes us to recognize that they are merely thoughts and not concrete reality. The longer we adopt a belief, the more it is manifested into our reality. It takes time for life to begin to appear this way, but it does slowly creeps in. Eg. You learned a new word yesterday and today you have heard several people use it YET previously you had never heard of it. You attention is now focused on that new word and it shows up repeatedly. We can change the direction of our thoughts through our focus. If we focus our attention on the negative in our life, we highlight this and draw more of the same. If we begin to focus our attention on the positive in life even if there is very little at the time, the ongoing focus creates more of the same. We may have been under a thought influence for a long time. We choose, however, how long we wish to hold on to adverse experiences and our attitude towards these events. The longer we have been held under the spell of disillusionment the longer it may take to reprogram our mind. As the old saying goes “Rome was not built in one day”. When we decide that we will no longer be held by these conflicts and learn to catch them in the early stages of development we can stifle the process. Life will still happen as it does for us all, but we can choose how to relate to these conditions, and we choose how long to hold on to them. We are the masters of our life’s experience internally as we control our reaction to life’s events. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

Transiting Jupiter is moving through the sign of Aries except for a short period when it moves back into Pisces from October 29 to December 21, 2022. Jupiter remains in the sign of Aries until May 17, 2023 then moves into Taurus. Jupiter will affect natal charts that are in aspect to this placement, especially by the major aspects (Conjunction, Opposition, Square, Trine, and Sextile). Check which planets or angles in your natal chart that will be impacted by this position. The planets, signs they are in, houses where they are located and the position of T Jupiter will clearly define how Jupiter’s energies will unfold in your life. Of course, you also must take into consideration the other influences from transits and progressions during the aspect. An experienced Astrologer can assist you with this if you are unable to delineate what this means in the birth chart. Jupiter is the planet of optimism and good fortune & is considered the most supportive and favourable of all planets in Astrology. Jupiter expands, presents growth opportunities and is known as the great benefic. It signifies the highest aspects of your life and is often associated with religious views, philosophy and spiritual understanding. It is the law maker and always wants to set things right and put them in their proper perspective. Jupiter promotes growth and expansion through experience and provides us with what we need on all levels and even when in challenging aspect to other planets, except for Saturn which offers growth through conscious effort. When Jupiter is in Aries that is the time to move ahead with personal plans especially if in favourable aspect. Aries is about personal objectives and striving towards what is important in your life at that point in time. Aries does not always offer success even with the presence of Jupiter (the rest of the chart must be considered) but even when you fall short of your objectives you can get up and begin again, learning from life’s lessons. This is a time to advance cautiously as Aries tends to jump without due consideration. Think before you move ahead might be the moto required but in many cases, opportunities are right in front of you. Take advantage! What you wish to advance towards? Make it personal and follow through with your objectives. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

If we concentrate on life’s challenges, we amplify the “challenging conditions”. On some level we need to take responsibility. This is not to say that we created the event, but we decided how we wanted to relate and respond to it. If we try to ignore thoughts or life lesson’s, we are placing more focus there by working on ignoring them. Trying to ignore something is impossible. We need to process the information, then accept and release as this changes the course of the thought process. You will notice that I said, “the course of the thought process”, not “our” thought process. This was intentional because we are not to identify with these difficult and intrusive thoughts. They are not ours to own, even though they stem from the mind. Eg. If you think of yourself as being stupid, this is a detrimental thought and you should not identify with it. Anything that makes you feel bad or unworthy should not be identified with. Why would you make something yours that makes you feel bad or not deserving or not enough? Life is not to reside in these thoughts and experiences. Find the place within that makes you feel loved. Why would you want to be experiencing anything else? Challenging life conditions are a part of life. They are lessons. Experience the challenges. They are our greatest teachers. Many of us will through example become teachers for others. They will either learn not repeat our example or they will learn from our example. All life lessons promote growth and expansion. They teach us but again, they are not for us to own. Experience, learn and release! Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

Today, July 13, 2022, we are experiencing a Capricorn Full Moon at the 21°. This Full Moon will be in trine both Uranus at 18° Taurus and the North Node (NN) 19° Taurus (conjunction Uranus). Those with planets either in conjunction or opposition the Full Moon (18-24 degrees) in Capricorn or Cancer will be affected by this placement of this Full Moon. Squares, Trines and Sextile will have a lesser degree of influence but an influence nonetheless. Remember the tighter the orb to 21° the more intense its influence. The more planets or angles involved in the equation the stronger the influence. A Full Moon in Capricorn often influences earthly matters. This can include our occupation and career, or earthly goals connected to material growth. Perhaps you have been thinking about moving ahead with your career or business objectives and you may have been laying the foundation for about 6 months (since Cap New Moon). Now will be the time to see these ideas come to fruition or move to the next level. The trine (120°) from transiting Uranus and the NN, which is a favourable aspect, will help with what is in place and at times offer smooth sailing towards your objectives. Trines often suggest easy flow and good opportunities if you follow through. In some cases, things just seem to be moving in the right direction, but often with a little push, advancement can be even greater. The NN indicates what we should be pursuing at this time in life. Aligned with Uranus, you can expect the unexpected (in a favourable manner). Uranus will move you in new directions with a change of objectives and often under unpredictable circumstances. Uranus is known as the awakener and pushes you to make changes to your life’s direction especially when in conjunction to the NN. The NN can indicate an important person or life pursuit that assists you. This is a unique opportunity to advance and new opportunities may now be available if you take advantage of this timing. You can push ahead with confidence if your natal chart aligns favourably. Take control of where you wish to be in the foreseeable future. All the best in your endeavors and be sure to take advantage of this unique opportunity. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

We are here living this earthly experience for a short period of time. Time itself passes without concern, and we move along with it. We can slow its movement somewhat by remaining focused in the present, but it marches on regardless. Our objective is to live life to the fullest, enjoying each and every moment, finding ways to absorb and learn the challenging lessons without owning them. Move ahead with your objectives and make them count. It is never just about material achievement but more in line with spiritual advancement, although there usually is a temporary contentment with financial improvement. Recognize your short comings and stop identifying with them, so you can release them as they are not a part of your true identity. Remember you are a spiritual being who has decided to return to the earthly experience to learn and advance in ways that are clearly taught through earthly experience. If you view yourself from this perspective, what are you truly capable of achieving? You are the only one that holds YOU back regardless of life’s experience. We will go through unmeasured joy and tough periods, but we all return to our place of origin. We are here to explore, experience and expand. Live each moment, enjoy what is right in front of you, learn, release negativity and follow your guiding voice, the one that is forever on and at your side. Please do not comment on this post.

The South Node is always in direct opposition with the North Node in a natal chart or through transit. Therefore, it is important to take into consideration both placements in their signs as well as house positions and aspects. The NN has been defined clearly in our past posts and they have included the South Nodes position as well, but we thought we would just discuss the energies of the South Node in this post. The SN is conducive of the energies linked to Saturn so challenges and obstacles are often a part of this nodal expression. Difficulties are associated with the SN when we drift back into the comfortable realms of this nodal placement. We are not meant to follow this position and although it may feel like a comfortable place to reside, we are not to move in its direction (defined by the house and sign position). The SN has been linked with a prior life that some Astrologers suggest can assist us in our current life. We can use some of these energies to assist us in following the NN requirements in the natal chart. We have brought the SN energies with us but they can suggest challenge when activated through transit or progression. A challenging square to the SN will indicate struggles and obstacles and a tendency to resist change and evolve. If Uranus is involved there may be a tendency to resist spiritual evolution and enlightenment; if Neptune is involved a resistance to let go of the past; and a suggestion of ego involvement if Pluto is involved or a need for growth and expansion often through positive reinforcement if Jupiter is involved and so forth. Oppositions often imply that others are involved and their input will impact us. In some cases we may not want to be open to what they have to say or feel as though they are intruding. Because of the NN conjunction we actually need to listen to these people in order to move ahead. Trines and sextile help to facilitate opportunities and easy flow although the connection to the SN often suggest that even though an opportunity is present holding on to old ways and not moving forward can be a challenge. Although the SN is considered to be a challenging position regardless of the difficulties presented by the SN in the natal chart we can use their energies to enable growth and opportunities in our current ventures. They can hold important information that has been taught or learned through experience that can help us move ahead with our NN potential. Please do not comment on this post.

We are beginning to have an understanding of our mind’s focus and gather knowledge of what we need to do to take advantage of this understanding. We are learning our own personal guiding principles. We now can recognize how the mind has been allowed free reign and that this leads us at times to places we did not want to go or thought processes that we would rather not engage in. The key now is to recognize the mind’s interference in its early stages before negativity leads to more dismay and suffering. Sometimes it is hard to recognize that we have stimulated worry and anxiety through our focus. Evolution is constant but occurs much easier with forethought, knowledge and knowhow to alter our perception of what we believe has potential. Usually what we worry about is not found in the moment. It is caught in past experiences or on future potentials. Possible outcomes are what we worry about. It is important to control the stream of our thoughts and see what is right in front of us now. Learn from now and move on. There is an easier, more positive take to everything; we just need to be aware of it. Change your focus to what is and know that the mind’s focus brings energy to life. As soon as you find yourself lost in worry and anxiety, reassimilate, and reassess. Much of your future is determined by the actions of today. Please do not comment on this post.

T Jupiter has been in the sign of Aries since May of 2022 and remains in the sign of Aries until May, 2023 except for a short hiatus when it goes back into Pisces from October 29 to December 21, 2022. If T. Jupiter is in Opposition to the natal Moon while it is in Aries, the Moon would be in the sign of Libra. Those with their Moon in Libra have an emotional need for balance, harmony, and peace. They want justice where it is necessary, and fairness especially when it comes to relationships. Emotionally they often have a need for partnership to feel emotionally whole and social interaction is high on their priority list. The Moon in Libra will also take in the meaning and area of life connected with its house placement. On opposition often suggests a struggle and an interaction with outside sources. Other people are often involved in the equation. Jupiter although often considered a pleasing and optimistic energy can also indicate growth and expansion. If an argument or disruption takes hold at this time Jupiter can expand on this energy adding fuel to the fire. Due to the positive energies associated with Jupiter however (and unless other mitigating factors are also present), the potential for some resolution is often part of the unfolding story or incident taking hold. The emotional network of feeling is increased and magnified. There is no halfway measure about what is taking place. This may be somewhat difficult, but Jupiter will work toward finding a solution or taking advice often from the other person involved. Although the feelings may be hurt, this individual might have something of value to offer. Take the time to listen to what they have to say, as it might bring valued information to what is taking place. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

Regardless of age you are always a developing soul. Never is there a moment when you are not growing or extending. We are ever-changing and as we evolve, often because of life experience, we gain insight as to our next evolutionary developments. Our life’s flow is an expression for that moment in time and who you were even a year ago is no longer who you are now or who you will be in the future. Our true self continually emerges (which is not to say that we are not living in our true sense of self now). We are slowly eliminating the parts of ourselves which no longer serve us and building on what we choose to identify as. Look to life’s reflection to see the direction in which you are moving. If life reflection seems somewhat dismal, you know that you need to change the way you are looking at life or make some changes in the direction you are going. Recognize the lesson and move on. Change stems from within, and you will need to have a close and personal look to see what needs shifting. If life appears to quite favourable, reflect on your focus and attitude. Keep up your attitude and your ability to learn the lessons without owning the experiences. You are apparently moving in an appropriate manner. Please do not comment on this post.

This transit of Pluto to Venus can manifest in several ways. First it speaks in terms of love and romance. Second, it can speak of finances, material possessions and in some cases, artistic pursuits. With love and romance, it often surfaces challenges within an existing relationship that can be recognized and rectified. It can deepen and bring more security to the relationship as conflicts are dealt with appropriately. If there are difficulties, they usually stem from ego and power struggles. They should be recognized as ego and dealt with. For this to work, both parties must admit some responsibility. Sometimes the relationship seems to be running along perfectly and now under this influence it can become even deeper and more satisfying. The relationship often reaches a new level of understanding and commitment. If this period brings a new relationship, it may be quite deep and personal with strong sexual energies. The connection may seem familiar or the dialogue may be very deep and personal. The potential for change and evolution for both individuals is heightened (this applies to a new founded relationship or long standing one). Pluto transforms, regenerates, and speaks of personal change. Its energies can make love relationships profound and with great substance. In general, trines speak of easy flow and a good rapport. This combination brings positive outcomes to life. This is the one we are always waiting for. If this transit of Pluto to Venus focuses on finances, it often speaks of potential increases. Money may be inherited or may come from a marriage or partnership, even through business associations. In some cases, finances increase significantly and what was in place is now replaced in substantial ways. No halfway measures are part of this trine. Sometimes Venus speaks about creative potential and much recognition is possible. Things need to be brought to the surface and ways to express the creativity must be sought out, perhaps through exhibitions or shows, or through the meeting of influential people. It is a time to push forward with creative insights and let others see what creativity is possible. Feelings can be stimulated under this influence and with a little push, results can materialize. It is important that anyone under this influence not sit back in reflection even though Pluto will make this easy to do. It is important that they push forward and strive to reach their objectives in life, whether this is creative and/or romantic. The energies are in a good place, and they should be used to assist in uncovering what is being searched for. The natal aspect speaks of potential for capital gain in some charts and has been linked to the charts of millionaires. However the rest of the chart must also link up with this type of energy in order for this to unfold or be part of the profile of an individual. Please do not comment on this post.
