Retrogrades: Looking Back to Go Forward
Mars has one last opposition coming to complete a series with Pluto. Due to the retrograde, Mars is having three contacts with Pluto, the planet of transformation, power, and metamorphosis… The pattern started with the Election, and the second contact was with the certification of the Election. This final contact will show us what the current American relationship is with the world.
From Pisces to Aries Brings Dynamic New Possibilities
Venus and Mercury together in early Aries are like sparks of ingenuity and creativity. They are representing a serious review of the factors that are desirable to change while considering information revealed from the past that informs the ideas of the future.
New Promises of Peace
This New Moon marks the Chinese New Year beginning the Year of the Snake, symbolizing reflection,
growth, and personal transformation. The Snake’s characteristics include being wise, calm, strategic,
determined and goal oriented. It will be less of the fiery tempest of the Dragon of 2024.
Welcome to the New World of 2025
Pluto’s final ingress into Aquarius was November 19. Pluto can dredge-up history, uncover the past, and expose criminal level misdeeds, and Aquarius is a sign that seeks honesty and Truth. The period covered by the Mars opposition to Pluto will activate a battle to bring forward the Truth against the powerful who strive to suppress and dismiss damages done.
HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAY SEASON
We might hold hope for conflicts to not go to extremes by the first quarter Moon phase on December 8th, in compassionate Pisces. Venus, the planet that soothes and pacifies heat has ingressed into Aquarius and is passing over Pluto, giving an emollient theme of rational connectivity to the combination of energies and allowing the space to review values. The second week of the month is quieter as we reach a period of deliberation with less feeling of intensity.
A Confusing Election Like Never Before
Both sides will have claims of success, leading to confusion and heated debates in the week following the election. Mercury, the planet most relevant to counting and certifying votes will be in a difficult challenge with Saturn…
The Season of Relationship Challenges
The second Fall eclipse is a Total Solar south node eclipse in Libra, the sign of balance, diplomacy,
negotiations, and justice is on October 2. This period between the eclipses seems to have an emphasis
on international and interpersonal relationships.
Seasonal Changes bring Changing Perspectives
Neptune and Pluto are both at the end degrees of the signs they have traveled for many years and are about to move into new signs next spring. They are displaying the final grasping fingers of the old paradigm of control by fear, bold lies, illusion, and damaging propaganda that make people fear that everything is going backwards.
Big Hopes, Big Surprises, Big Changes
Do not let the political atmosphere sweep you up emotionally. Hold your personal course in this time of changes. Focus on the world you want to create.
On the Edge of Social Shifts
This is Gemini Season, another emphasis on the Air Element. As each planet slides from Earth Taurus, where the energy is comfortable, safe, and slow moving, they make an easy trine aspect to Pluto in the first degree of Aquarius. The Sun ingressed to Gemini on May 20, starting the shift of energy and attention to the realm of ideas, reasoning, and the whole creative flow that allows inspiration to arise.
