Planets in retrograde do not operate at their full potential. In many cases, it is a time to reflect on and plan around the energies of the planets involved. When they are ready to turn direct, we can then use the information gathered over the time frame where the retrograde cycles occurred. Our last Astrology post on January 12, 2022, we focused on Venus in retrograde and today Mercury in Retrograde. Mercury begins its retrograde cycle on January 14, 2022 in the sign of Aquarius at 10 degrees and will back as far as 24 degrees Capricorn. Mercury goes direct cycle on February 4, 2022. Mercury in retrograde is often feared by many, as its meaning has been delineated in rather strong terms. It is important to note that if you do not have Mercury retrograde in your natal chart and are not being affected adversely by its placement making contact with your planets in the natal chart, you may not be affected at all, or its influence may be rather mild. Mercury’s intensity will be influenced by other factors in the chart. Look to see what aspects Mercury makes to the rest of your chart while in its retrograde cycle. Mercury retrograde often suggests that this is the time to review things that are currently important in your life. It is important not to sign important documents at this time as sometimes things do not move along as you wish they would. Mental processing may not be optimal but planning the next move after the retrograde cycle is over is the best approach. Mercury is primarily in the sign of Aquarius during this retrograde cycle, although it is also in Capricorn in its final stages, so what we discussed with Venus in Capricorn in the January 12 post will be reiterated by Mercury in the same sign. www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/50216115-venus-in-retrograde?siteId=126690493&locale=en-US We will not repeat that information here. Aquarius often speaks of humanitarian endeavors and a rather unique approach to life’s events. If Uranus is involved in the equation be sure not to do anything without full consideration and moving in a completely different direction under this influence is not advisable. Being involved with groups and organizations may be hindered in some way at this time for those influenced by this cycle. You may not be allowed or feel you should not take part in events such as protests or your group involvement may be held back because of the concerns of today. Aquarius carries with it the need for change and the start of something new and you may wish to advance on some level, but the timing is not right for this to begin. It is often best to wait until Mercury goes direct once again in early February. Take the time to rationalize and think things out during this time frame and move in accordance with the energies as they begin to present themselves in a clearer light as time passes. If, however, you have made plans and wish to continue along the same path, move ahead but expect some restraints and potential shortfalls. Please do not comment on this post.

Sometimes the best laid plans will go awry and because we do not always travel the path we prefer, we allow our reactions to be emotionally intense. This emotional response can be tough on us and if we continue to battle back against things we cannot change, we feel as though these events will never end. This feeling and thought structure can leave us quite depleted, frustrated and without direction. This is a temporary situation, however, and will pass if we allow ourselves to let go or change our attitude. Nothing remains the same in life. Shifts of consciousness and shifts in circumstance often run hand in hand. Sometimes we must let go and take new paths that can be quite foreign to us. This can be frightening but at the same time very exciting. Take the proverbial bull by the horns and move forward. Sometimes we need a little push from life or from others and other times we take those first steps on our own. The latter choice is usually the easiest in the long run. It is best not to wait for others to push us to make important change. Each one of us has the capabilities to move ahead yet need to recognize this fact and to face our fears. We may feel at the mercy of life, but this is just a belief. Emotional disruptions more often than not signify the need for change, and we must allow ourselves that freedom to grow and expand. We do not have to stay within any type of energy that confinement or feels anything less than fulfilling. Do not wait for life to dictate that change must take place. It is usually much more pleasant and less disruptive if we take those steps on our own. This IS your life! Live it to the best of your abilities. Never sell yourself short.

Planets in retrograde do not operate at their full potential in general. In many cases, it is a time to reflect and plan around the energies of the planets involved. When they turn direct again, we can then use the information gathered during the retrograde cycles to proceed. Today and January 14 we are going to focus on Venus and Mercury in Retrograde. Venus has been retrograding since December 19, 2021 and will move from 26 degrees Capricorn back to 11 degrees Capricorn. It goes direct once again on January 29, 2022. Venus often has to do with love and affection and sometimes this represents an important female in our lives. This is not the mother unless the Moon is part of the profile during this period. Friendship, warmth and friendliness are also under the energies of Venus as well as social events and festivities which involve people that we care about. During the retrograde cycle and especially during this pandemic, we may find that it is difficult to engage in gatherings and attend social events. In some cases, this Venus retrograde cycle speaks of love and affection with loved ones seemingly being stifled or even withdrawn. The mind can go to extreme places due to the lack of affection or with feelings of despair often surfacing under this influence. This can be tough on anyone but especially challenging to our younger generation and our children. People are not normally solitary beings and need enjoyment and to engage in social gatherings. Venus moving through the sign of Capricorn often speaks of financial concerns and business-related matters. Venus in Capricorn under normal conditions often suggests a state of solidification and stable conditions in these regards, especially if other indicators in the chart suggest the same. During this retrograde cycle, we may find (if our chart is being afflicted by this retrograde cycle of Venus) that our financial situation or business concerns will be stifled and making ends meet may be difficult. Finances may be dwindling or uncertain at this time and buying big ticket items is not a good idea. It is best to wait until this retrograde cycle is completed. Again, we will look at Mercury retrograde on January 14, 2022. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

We have come this far; now where to go next? Do we change it up or stay with what feels comfortable? A new year always promotes action in some way, and, in many cases, many of us make alterations to our life due to the need to change. We choose routes that promote a healthier lifestyle. We begin exercise programs, promise ourselves to eat food that is healthier for us, change our looks, buy new “toys”, or make an effort to spend more time with those we love. Sometimes business and job opportunities come into closer focus. Others reach for help from an emotional perspective and sometimes we reach within for more substance. The list is endless. Our approach and direction are often focused on outside ventures such as the desire to achieve. Looking outside for change is never a bad idea, but perhaps we need to look within for the changes that will produce the best rewards or facilitate the greatest growth. Being honest with ourselves provides a clear perspective on who we are in the moment. We can try to fool yourself, but we will not succeed. There are always times in life when we need to have a serious deeper look. Not just to recognize where we want to make changes but to also acknowledge and be grateful of our strengths and courage. View yourself with an objective eye. Be honest and then forge a path ahead that over time will produce the change you desire. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

Towards the end of January although often felt prior to the degree of separation Transiting Jupiter will make a Sextile to Transiting Uranus. They are in within one degree of separation from February 13 to February 23, 2022. They will be exact on February 18. This aspect will apply to those who have Natal Uranus in Pisces, (someone approximately 16) and those born in the early 1950’s with their Natal placement of Uranus in Cancer. These individuals will experience a move in a new direction in life often brought on through life’s circumstances beyond their control. The change has likely been felt for some time and a part of them knows that things must change on some level (houses and other planets involved help tell the story). In many cases the change is often abrupt or unexpected although as mentioned subconsciously they are being prepared. Uranus, though disruption, brings necessary change that is needed and can fulfill their soul’s evolutionary quest. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and growth and is often found active in charts when opportunities are in place that facilitate good luck and fortunate conditions. Jupiter has to do with spiritual evolution taught through life’s ongoing philosophical principles. In most cases when Jupiter is part of the picture good things are on the horizon or are current. Jupiter is making a sextile to Uranus. Sextiles are considered positive influences which often initiate opportunities that can be brought to fruition. Putting the two together this is often the indicator of something unfolding or that there is potential for something unfolding that can be quite positive if the individual acts. In rare circumstances, life just makes the change but in most cases, they have to pursue and take advantage of what is being offered during the sextile. Since the houses speak of areas of life involved it is importance to pay particular attention to what these houses represent under this aspect. T. Uranus and T. Jupiter as well as the natal placement of Uranus and Jupiter will reflect what areas of life are involved. A further study of all the other aspects will help to determine what course of action is required and how to move ahead. The time while the aspect is approaching should be used to plan for a course of action or have expectations as to what might unfold. Our attitude and actions take priority as to how things unfold. Our reaction dictates how we experience any event. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

Transiting Saturn is currently in the sign of Aquarius and will remain in Aquarius until the Spring of 2023. Saturn, which is often linked to disciplined action and restrained conditions, moving through the sign of Aquarius (the sign of humanitarian endeavors, enlightenment, and awakenings) will be a testing ground for our ability to focus and to stay true to our beliefs. This is particularly true when T. Saturn conjuncts or makes challenging aspects to our natal Mercury’s position. Check your astrology chart to locate Mercury and calculate any aspect with Saturn, if any, occur during this period. The earlier degrees of transiting Saturn may have already passed at this point. Saturn is the teacher of the zodiac but is resistant to change. With the energies of Aquarius under this aspect, change is inevitable. Saturn is always willing to take the long road to learn what is needed. If the shortcut is more appealing to you while Saturn is making contact, you will find that this will not work out. Saturn insists that you not miss any steps, and you will have to adjust along the way. You cannot ignore any detail under this influence. Every detail must be faced. If, however, you work your way through these lessons and you are diligent in your efforts and face any adversity that might present itself head on, you will come out the other side much stronger and a more experienced individual with knowledge and understanding that will stand the test of time. On a mental level, it may seem quite tedious as you seem to be tested at every junction point, but you will learn a great deal about your inner resolve during Saturn contact. Could one of these important lessons be “being present”? The house Saturn is transiting and where natal Mercury is located will be the area of life that is being affected and the natal house placement of Saturn will also play a significant role. Be sure to check the aspects to Mercury by other transiting planets as well as its condition within the natal chart for a clearer picture. Even if Mercury is challenged in the birth chart, remember that challenging aspect when applied to our life’s mission will be rectified over time and can eventually work like a trine or sextile once mastered. Saturn and Mercury together can indicate times of worry, anxiety and negativity. It can be so testing that depression can result. Mercury is the planet of the mind and some of the greatest tests will be during its time spent with Saturn. This may not be an easy time, but all adversity can be conquered when approached appropriately. Belief structure will play an important role during Saturn’s stint with Mercury.

If you only had one wish, what would it be? Ask yourself how does this wish reflect in my life or does it? Is there anything you can do, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem, to help manifest this wish? Can you direct the course of your life so that there is a potential for this to take shape? Can a change of attitude forge the beginning of a direction that would foster this possibility in your life? Do you have to make things happen or will life point the way and make the moves to facilitate this wish? Sometimes we need to go a little deeper to uncover and understand what is transpiring in our lives. Sometimes we need to reach outward and sometimes go within. What will your next step be and why did you ask for your personal wish? Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

If you have your Midheaven in Pisces (depending on the degree of your MC), you have had transiting Neptune influencing your Midheaven. Neptune entered Pisces in early 2012 and will remain until spring 2025. It moves back into Pisces for a short period after that date but continues with its placement in Aries after that. Having Neptune conjunct your MC, you will have experienced or will experience notable effects on your occupation, your status in life, as well as some of the goals you may have set for yourself during this period. Check to see how Neptune and the MC are influenced by other planetary links in your natal chart to evaluate their overall condition. If Neptune is generally well placed in the birth chart, this period might express itself in positive ways, although probably the period involved will be somewhat unclear. You might even be experiencing some psychic inspirations or enlightening dreams and visions. It might be a time of inspiration or the emergence of latent artistic abilities. Neptune might tend to cloud over areas of life defined by the Midheaven and will often make things very unclear and decision making can be tough. It is as though you are not sure of where you are going and might be afraid of making the wrong choice. Neptune is a mysterious planet, and it is linked to such energies as intuitive perception, religion, martyr type tendencies and inspiration among other things. It can also be linked to places of confinement and alcohol or drug issues, but again much will depend on the natal influence. If your judgement is clouded, transiting Neptune is likely within degree of the conjunction to your Midheaven. Some individuals can feel its approach as far away as 5-6 degrees approaching but commonly its vibrations are felt although very subtle about 2 degrees approaching and it will continue to be in the orb of influence for about 2-3 degrees once past direct. The direct aspect is always the strongest and look for an inner transit of perhaps the Sun or Mars or the progressed Moon to be timers to this position. The working environment is usually the highlighted area of life for most individuals when the MC is activated. It is unwise to decide on a course of action regarding your occupation during Neptune’s influence. It is far better to wait until it has passed completely. If you have made some moves, you will only discover what the reality of these moves are when Neptune’s energy no longer has influence. Some people get married when the MC is activated and especially when it is connected to the Ascendant or any planets in the seventh house. These marriages are usually felt like a match made in heaven and this could most certainly be the case. However, if you find your partner is a little bit different and not that individual you had placed on the pedestal previously, you should not be too surprised. Although the truth of the matter is that if someone does decide to marry under this influence it is quite often a special union regardless of how they view one another. There is something spiritual about the whole experience; it is pure and unfiltered. It just might be one of those special moments. Enjoy this Neptunian transit with all its glitter and be open to anything mystical and inspirational that might come your way. Be sure to have at least one foot firmly planted on the ground. Reality can be transcendent during Neptune’s visit. One thing is for certain, you will neither forget the experience of Neptune’s magic nor the feelings of light entering your life--that is if you are so inclined. Please do not comment on this post.

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 are born now during this 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 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 and open. Our reality is but our focus in this moment, a formulated thought, if you will. Pay close attention to what it is that you are creating. Remind yourself of who you truly are, spirit 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.

We will experience a Capricorn New Moon at 12 degrees on January 2, 2022 at 1:33 p.m. EST. New Moons speak of new beginnings and initiate something new that is related to the sign and house position of the New Moon in your natal chart. If you have a Conjunction, Opposition or Square to this placement by other planets or angles in your birth chart, this New Moon will have special relevance to you. With a Capricorn New Moon quite often this new start has to do with goals and ambitious ideas in the area of life suggested by its house position. For further indications check other planets and their energies as well as their house placement and aspects to this position. Start anything that potentially has long lasting effects and in areas of life that you will be willing to work towards diligently. Capricorn has to do with a steady approach often involving something related to business and enterprise. Some may decide to make a change to their occupation that will affect their future. Others may be inclined to start saving towards retirement or the future. Some may begin long term relationships which may be unexpected. This is due to the influence of T. Uranus which is making a trine at 10 degrees in Taurus to this New Moon’s position. Trines are often quite favourable and are linked to easy flow, good luck and fortunate conditions if the rest of the chart agrees. Uranus always brings to the forefront something that is unexpected and moves you in a new direction because what has been in place no longer suits your evolutionary path. Uranus’ action is unpredictable, sudden and can seem erratic. It seeks out change with the awareness that this change fosters insight and awakenings to something new. The Semi-Sextile from Saturn although considered a minor aspect suggests being in the right place at the right time. This is also considered favourable and because of the link to Capricorn (Saturn rules Capricorn) what moves forward over the next six months or so (especially strong in the upcoming month) brings solidifying aspects to whatever is being formatted or presented. You will need to check what house T. Uranus is passing through and where T. Saturn is placed. This will provide you with more insight into how to move forward and what to expect. When the Full Moon is in the sign of Capricorn in 6 months, you should see the results of your actions as this is the culmination point of what was set in motion under the new moon.

The South Node in astrology focuses on past lives and what we brought forward into this life. This knowledge can be used in coordination with our North Node’s energy. The S. Node also speaks of Karmic issues that were not resolved or still affect us. The S. Node by sign and house placement, ruling planet and any planets conjunct to its position speak of who we were, our past life character and how we defined ourselves. The definitive path or plot of our past life is determined by the S. Node’s sign and house position and ruling planet of our S. Node and all aspects but the conjunctions. In general, the challenging aspects (conjunctions, squares and oppositions) are the ones that will be most significant in this life’s determined path as we need to look at the S. Node as a challenge brought forward into this life. The S. Node is said to have similar energies to Saturn, while the North Node has similar energies to Jupiter, so we always need to view the S. Node in a less than desirable manner. The conjunctions speak of the merging of energies and have an emphasizing effect. The planets’ energies must be taken into consideration. Regardless of the planets concerned, they must be viewed as challenging and presenting difficulty for maneuvering your way through. The Oppositions often speaks of relationships and pressing difficulties that can be overwhelming. Depending on the rest of the story the opposition can be something that we may have been longing for which was perhaps missing in a previous incarnation. Oppositions lean towards anguish and in some cases hopelessness or despair. The Squares leans towards something viewed as being unfair or unjust, anger and resentment as well as aggravation and annoyance. Perhaps you were attacked or violated, and this has led to anguish and anger, and you may now feel a need to resolve the issues carried forward into this life. There is a strong need to get things right this time and to settle the dispute which will help you maneuver your way forward in this life. Uncovering the issues from a past reincarnation and working on ways to repair the issue, through understanding provided by the S. Nodes delineation can help you move towards the energies of what the North Node is all about for this life. Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.

There are many living in this world under horrific conditions. Many of us usually find ways to cope with our hardships. Some seek refuge from outside sources, while others find their way through making the best of what little they have. Most of us cannot begin to image living under the appalling conditions some endure. Imagine for a moment living with an addiction. Imagine living a life so wrapped up in these addictions that you beg on the streets because your additions have taken away your ability to hold a job. Imagine alone and feeling as though no one cares whether you live or die. According to addicitioncenter.com in 2017, the National Coalition for the Homeless had found that 38% of homeless people are alcohol dependent, and 26% are dependent on other harmful chemicals. These stats show that most homeless people do not suffer addiction issues. Imagine, through no fault of your own, being unable to afford your next meal. Imagine losing your job, falling through the safety nets and losing your home. The next time you see someone homeless, approach them without judgement. Offer them a few kind words. Offer them your lunch or take them to a restaurant and buy them a meal. What about offering a blanket or coat? Take a moment to reflect on what their situation is actually like then take a moment to reflect on how good your life truly is. Giving without judgement can be a challenge for some of us. Some of us through our judgements walk away and loose the opportunity to help those most in need. Is it possible next time that instead of walking away, we offer something even if that something is only a smile or a kind word? This small gesture may be immeasurable. We do not know these individuals’ journeys. Our kindness might make a miserable day a little brighter. Your donation likely will be used for food, clothing or lodging. Be a little flicker of hope. What is the cost to you? Support all your brothers and sisters. They deserve our kindness, our concern, our compassion. How blessed are we that we are able to help? Share your abundance. It is not what you think but what you do that truly matters. Do not hesitate to send your blessing too! Please do not comment on this post. We do not receive notifications.
