Cosmic Confusion

Cosmic Confusion

This week Cosmic Confusion keeps you off balance and feeling like you are coming and going at the same time.

Shadow side:

On Monday & Tuesday, 9/28 & 29/20, Saturn, the Supreme Teacher, stations direct in his home sign of Disciplined Capricorn. He immediately squares Mars, the God of War, in his home sign of Outrageous Aries

 

These two masculine archetypes are making us crazy with both energetic urgency and limit-based frustration. Just because you want to do anything to relieve the tension doesn’t mean you can, or should. Meet the test of character with diligent grounding and cooling of the spirit fire!

Merc Retro Pre-Shadow Sept 2020

Merc Retro Pre-Shadow Sept 2020

We just entered the Merc Retro Pre-Shadow Sept 2020. That means we’re crossing over territory we will be re-examining during the retrograde which begins on October 13th.

Not Another Retrograde!

Those of us who practice shamanism will be taking Journeys to upgrade our shamanic tool boxes and energy cleansing routines.

It’s like building up muscles and endurance for a marathon, and the terrain is some rough country.

What’s Going To Happen?

This could be another highly emotional retrograde that overlaps the last month of the election cycle.

Autumnal Equinox 2020

Autumnal Equinox 2020

At the Autumnal Equinox 2020 the Outer Self Sun leaves Earth Mother Virgo to engage the Balancing Scales of Libra. We review what we’ve harvested, and lost, and redistribute and reprioritize everything. This year “Roaring For Love” Venus in Leo leads the way!

I’D LOVE TO ROAR, SCREAM, FALL DOWN AND PITCH A FIT…

Take a number. Oh, let’s all do it together! 

(Pause for dramatic release)

I FEEL BETTER NOW

Me too! So, as I was saying, the Goddess of Love Venus points us in the right direction as the tip of a Finger of God Yod. 

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

A Yod is a long triangle of three planets hooking up to amplify and support the planet at the top of the triangle.

Venus In Fiery Leo tops this Yod. Her message is “Living from love sets me free” and she’s supported by the “base” of Inspiration or Addiction Neptune and I Believe In You Jupiter in Capricorn. 

Virgo Empowerment Surge New Moon

Virgo Empowerment Surge New Moon

You may have already experienced this Virgo Empowerment Surge with the approach of the New Moon. OK, we can at least partially credit the recent direct station of I Believe In You Jupiter for shifting the momentum. But the overall influence of the Earth Goddess during Virgo season this year has inspired many of us to really clean up our act and reconnect with our roots at all levels.

I’VE BEEN CLEANING OUT MY CLOSETS!

Excellent, health conscious activity! This includes your Shadow Closet, Legacy Relationships, Abandoned Dreams, Crappy Habits and Useless Excuses. Yes, we’re motivated to make some major changes.

WHAT IF I’VE BEEN SUPER TIRED INSTEAD?

Well, maybe you need to rest up and recharge before you are truly resourced to make decisions and take action. Doesn’t that sound wise?

Cosmic Pause Retrogrades

Cosmic Pause Retrogrades

For the next few days we take a cosmic pause to breathe in between the 2020 epic take-apart challenges.

SIX planets (plus an asteroid) are now in retrograde as of 3:22 pm PST 9/9/20. This happens less than 1% of the time.

Their archetypal influences on us as individual beings and us as a community blare loudly into the deep silence of the void. We are all in the alchemy of change, and in this cosmic pause the opportunity is there to dive deeply into the experience.

IS THAT WHAT’S GOING ON?

Yes. Everyone experiences the transformation differently. Where we are each affected depends upon so many personal factors. From 9/9 to 9/12/20, retrograde Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron keep our focus inward, and, the theme of this focus is how we participate in the world around us.

When Venus Roars!

When Venus Roars!

Who doesn’t love the satisfying thrill that courses through you when Venus Roars? Tap in and feel it! On 9/6 she shifted into Luscious Leo just after midnight Pacific time. Expect mood shifts from weepy to lustful as she dries off from her stint in the emotional deeps of Cancer and stretches lithely into the self-indulgence of Leo.

DOES THIS INVOLVE CHOCOLATE?

Whatever your particular pleasure, Venus in Leo encourages you to explore it, especially if you can feel and look good while doing it!
