The Great Conjunction on the Magical Solstice –Gateway to the Age of Aquarius

12/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
Jupiter & Saturn come together in a most auspicious way on the 21st of December! This “Great Conjunction” will spark a turning point at 0° Aquarius on the Solar New Year—the Solstice. What an incredible amount of rebirthing energy converging in the astro heavens that practically ushers in a renaissance! One can see why some astrologers are calling this the “official” entrance into the Age of Aquarius.
 
We are shifting into the creativity and idealism of Aquarius from the cynicism of Capricorn who can be critical & get lost in pessimism—where Jupiter has been moving through for the past year, and Saturn for the past 2.5 years.
 
This move into Aquarius reflects the archetypes of the Rebel, Revolutionary, & Visionary; and the Humanitarian, who sees the whole as greater than the sum of its parts. She takes us out of individualism and self-absorption into a world that focuses on the group and the greater good for all. How will you embody this archetypal transition?
 
This is a most potent and hopeful time of evolution and change that we are stepping into when Jupiter & Saturn meet at 0° Aquarius. Though I feel we’ve been at the precipice, this “Great Mutation in Air” will propel us forward. Much like the Renaissance after the Dark Ages, where there was great social change. Think of The Star in the Tarot, which follows The Tower card!
 
Mystics & magicians have had visions of the Age of Aquarius since the ‘70s, but the truth is, it's not going to save us. There is a shadow side to everything and the Age of Aquarius' kind of scares me, especially considering how AI tech could evolve!
 
Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, which governs technology. Today's technology positively offers us a way of connecting communities and giving everyone a platform to share their work & creativity, especially now more than ever. However, Shadow Aquarius can be emotionally detached & cut-off. We know by now that “social” media can fake us out with the illusion of connecting through the screen, when the truth for some can be more isolating screen-side. But, it all really comes down to how we choose to use modern technology. We can use it to lift each other up, or it can be used to our detriment.
 
Jupiter & Saturn rule the economy, politics, and systems of law & order, and we know how dangerous a weapon the Internet can be. The echo chambers and “fake news” are hurting us. We have to be more vigilant about how we share and acquire information.
 
We got here together; we can get ourselves out of it. The solution will be coming together to regulate technologies that polarize and divide. We will need to consider digital minimalism & digital detoxes as part of our self-care routines & healing practices. We can reimagine how we use technology. It will take personal discipline AND the collective Will—the “Essence” of the Age of Aquarius.
 
I look forward to this new era. Where the group is more consequential than the ego of the individual. Where we gather in community & find ways to come together for the greater good. If we choose, our humanity can matter more, and the will of the few for short-term gains & agendas can become outmoded, and ludicrous even. This has been the way for many groups and cultures. Many have already been working for years and progressing towards a long-term vision and reimagining a better future for ALL. And with the wakeup call of the past year a critical mass of supporting and uplifting marginalized communities came to the forefront in the USA, which extended to the world. I know there's still much work to do. And things won't change without personal action. Imagine how the Age of Aquarius will steer us if everyone rose to action to help one another! 


While 2020 has felt like the biggest setback of our lives, it was a monumental catalyst for our evolution! We have been struggling in a cocoon of transmutation and we’re breaking out of its crushing confines.
 
Here’s to our resurrection! May this Solstice and Great Mutation in Air usher in collective renewal and illuminated Unity.

Solar Samhain 15° Scorpio

11/6/2020

Today is 15˚ Scorpio and marks Solar Samhain, the exact solar midpoint between Autumnal Equinox and Winter Solstice. ♏️? ⁣ ⠀ The Sabian message for 15 degrees Scorpio is, “A Girl’s Face Breaking into a Smile.” ⠀ Sabian symbols are metaphorical phrases that describe each astrological degree of the zodiac, for which there are 360. ?? (they’re like messages from an oracle!)⁣⁣ ⠀ It’s definitely an esoteric tool. But, if you sit with a Sabian Symbol message, a knowing begins to surface. They can be quite useful for daily reflections. And at times, I’ve found them to be powerful. ⠀ The following is an excerpt from Ellias Lonsdale’s book, Inside Degrees, which features his reinterpretation: “A Woman With a Gold Tooth”. ⠀ “You invent, conceive, bring into being whatever you hope for and whatever you dread. Usually the dreads come up more first and dominate for a while. In this cycle you scare up the world's most extreme melodramas, each one of them marked "no way out, no way through." If you should outlast your dread demons, and you shall, you will find, in a very different direction, that there are equally powerful hope angels. You hope and wish and yearn for everybody to go free and this wishing has deep, uncanny power. For you have been nourishing for a very long time two counteracting worlds: the one dark and heavy with foreboding; the other swept clean by the magical will to bring the world around right.” ⠀ We enter the darkness to find the light, and the only way out is through. ???✨ ⠀ The cosmic alarm has been clanging away, and it does feel like many are awakening. ✨?✨ Obviously NOT EVERYONE is hearing the bell, people are still asleep! But, let’s focus on all the eyes that are open and opening. ✨?✨ ⠀ Let’s thrive in that silver lining... ⠀ and break into smile... ⠀ ...with our thousands of small acts that transform the world. ⠀ May our magical Wills be ignited. ⁣⁣?✨?✨?✨ ⠀ #solarSamhain blessings ✨⁣ ⠀ #sabiansymbols #oraclereading #astrologyreadings #divinationtools #astrowitch #15degreesscorpio #scorpioseason #scorpioseason♏️ #divineMusings #divineMuses #divineguidance

Mercury Rx Reading with the Lua Lenormand & Lua Tarot

10/13/2020

Mercury Retrograde in ♏️ today at 6:05pm PDT! This one is active right before the election. And Mercury Stations Direct on election day this year! ⠀ ⠀ The last time Mercury Stationed on an election day was in the 2000 election, but Mercury Stationed RX that year. If you don’t remember, the voting punch machines in Florida were not functioning correctly, & we saw a national debacle around “hanging chads” which ensued for weeks before Al Gore conceded on Dec 13th. ⠀ ⠀ It’ll be interesting to see what happens when Merc Stations Direct this time (Nov 3 at 9:50am PST). When any planet Stations Direct, the Rx energy of the previous weeks coalesces on the day it Stations as the planet slows to a stop (appears to us in the sky that way!) This means that all the Rx energy of the next few weeks will consolidate on November 3rd. Eeep!⠀ ⠀ However, we don’t have to despair! □ We can work with this Rx energy. Over the next few weeks, we can focus on POSITIVE work that results in a POSITIVE Merc Direct. Rx periods are not negative per se, just more challenging. It’s what we DO with this RX that has impact!⠀ ⠀ There’s a few general rules with Mercury Rx that can help instead of hinder us on the MICROCOSMIC level. What you can DO: review, reflect, and regroup. What NOT to do: extensive travel, negotiating new contracts, beginning new projects. Focus on things you’ve already started! ⠀ ⠀ Obviously, the US election has macrocosmic astrology beyond Mercury Rx! I won’t go into it here, but I do also see positive aspects in the US Natal chart, along with the tension! Its definitely a mixed bag, I won’t sugarcoat it. ⠀ ⠀ I asked the Lua Lenormand what we can expect from this Merc Rx period. 27.Letter + 2.Clover + 33.Key. I see the Letter as voting ballots. Clover & Key are both positive cards! I'm also wondering about any letter campaigns that have positive result during Merc Rx.⠀ ⠀ I pulled a Lua Tarot card to further clarify Merc Rx. Page of Wands! This card is ACTIVE with messages that bring new dynamic & creative energies. I see this as people taking action not seen before. ⠀ ⠀ I turned the deck over for one last message from the tarot. The Hanged One says, “Surrender & Trust!” □✨

Full Moon Blessings of October Magic

10/1/2020

Do you believe in magic? Today’s Full Moon tarot card is the Magician. □□□□□ ⠀ October skies will bless us with two magical Full Moons: today and Halloween, a true blue moon. □✨□□□ ⠀ It has been an especially rough couple of weeks. We’re seeing this extra tension in the world thanks to Mars retrograde. But we have an opportunity to step out of the conflict of warrior Mars and return to our central inner power. ⠀ There has been a lot of Fire in the astrology lately (and sadly literally on the Earth too). With Mars Rx conjunct Eris Rx in Aries, the Moon in Aries, and Venus in Leo (until tomorrow!) ⠀ The element Fire reflects the power of our Spirit. □⚡️ ⠀ The Magician is stepping out and removing her mask to remind some of us that we are spiritual beings having a human experience, which can be messy as hell sometimes. ⠀ Embodying all of the elements in one card, we are meant to remember how much stronger we can be when we bring together all the parts of magic. ⠀ With all this Martian Fire, we need Water to balance things out. □✨ ⠀ I just returned from the beach, and being around that powerful water magic was healing for my soul. If you’re feeling the intense heat of life, I recommend the water magic found in nature. If that’s not possible to do, anything intentional from ritual baths to magic spritzes or a shower scrub and upping your water intake can bring in the cooling and purifying energy of Water. ⠀ Wishing you Full Moon blessings of October magic. ⠀ #luatarot by #divineMuses #fullmoonmagic #magiciantarot #tarotreading #fullmoonreading #tarotreadersofinstagram #fullmoonaries #marsretrograde #astrotarot #astrologyreadings #watermagic ⠀

I have more books than ever stacked on my bedside table! □✨ ⠀ However, the New Moon energy today seems to reflect the quote by Count Tolstoy. Tolstoy had his Sun and Moon in Virgo. This quote from him is apropos. We have to take care of each other now more than ever. □✨ ⠀ Be well. Be safe. Be kind to each other. ⠀ #luatarot by #divineMuses #thehermit #blackandwhitetarot #newmoonvirgo #virgoseason♍️ #newtarotdeck #tarotdeck #tarotreading #tarotwitch #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarot ⠀

Calling all witches, mages, & practitioners of the healing & mystical arts! I invite you to erect this tarot spell, during the Pisces Full Moon, onto your altar or reading table to raise the energies of unity & healing during these times of upheaval. In the name of Oneness against the forces of division. ⠀ Your participation in this spell today will be a pearl in the greater grid of healing & unity that our people need more than ever. Tonight’s Full Moon in Pisces is ripe for heart-opening magic, beaming compassion & love down to Earth. ⠀ These specific tarot cards set up in this layout was constructed with the intention of increasing compassionate communication, understanding, & active listening, as well as strengthening respect & harmony. ⠀ People are being gunned down in the streets because of the color of their skin; & because of a difference of opinion on politics & policy; because of the fear & lies that foster hate. ⠀ I invite you to cast & charge this spell in your space to help fight the toxic forces of division that have been infiltrating our society. This spell encourages coming together in unity with strength, love, & compassion. ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS: Cleanse your altar/table. Place your tarot cards in this order on a reading mat or cloth. Light a candle right before 10:22pm PDT tonight—the time of the Full Moon. ⠀ Clear your mind by taking 3 deep breaths to ground into your body. Focus on the cards that are laid out in front of you. Call on your deity, higher power, or ancestors to guide us during this Dark Night of the Soul. Visualize the obstacles of divisive behavior being cleared away by the forces of love, with actions of deep compassion, acceptance, listening, empathy, forgiveness, & more. Whatever actions your deepest Self believes brings healing to this situation for the greater good of ALL. ⠀ You can connect with your favorite mantra, prayer, or a positive affirmation that buoys your heart. Give thanks to your deity or ancestors for their guidance. ✨□□✨ May the blessings be. ⠀ Peace begets peace. Peace begets peace. Peace begets peace. ⠀ If you feel called to share my tarot spell to your feed, please tag me in your photo. ✨□□□□□✨
