November/December 2013
From today, the
Sagittarian road calls us on to adventure as the Sun moves into this positive,
movement oriented sign! We may only have an inkling of the direction of that
new road. We are still in the mystery but we’re now stepping onto the ancient
highway of understanding and wisdom. All will be revealed in good time!
Optimism returning:
The road reveals itself: Mysterious and beckoning!
We may not know where we’re going but
we’re happy about it...finally!
Yes! We’re out of the eclipse
tunnel and we’re gradually moving out of the huge confusing energies of the
Scorpio transformational challenges of the past weeks.
We’re not quite out of the cave yet as
far as the Scorpio mystery goes, but we’re likely to feel that we’re back on
the road again! Of course, we were never off the road. Rather, for
many it’s been like walking through thick fog with a lantern to guide our
way.
Step by step, little by
little: More revelations to come!
We’re in a step by step discovery
process as the planets interact and shift, supporting our gradual realisations
and our evolutionary growth. In particular,
Mercury, still moving through Scorpio,
is giving our mind a makeover which has been at times confusing and challenging.
We’re clearing up a whole lot of old mental constructs.
Maintain faith and
patience: Changes still happening! New options emerging! Stay
open!
Stay open to the shifts and
turns on the road of opportunity!
You may not know where you have landed
after all the inner changes over the past month or so. We’ve changed our
minds, lost our minds, found our minds and lost them again...over and over as
we learned to listen to our hearts guiding us through the change process.
Maybe you have a glimpse of the new
direction. Maybe you don’t. The veil is gradually being parted
showing more of the possibilities each time there’s another planetary
shift. It’s important to stay very open at this time, allowing the
universe to bring you the fulfilment you’ve called to you. Dream time is
powerful so keep taking time for rest, relaxation and focussing energy.
Changes arising from eclipse
period: Ongoing physical shifts! New doorways
appear!
Remain aware of opportunity knocking on
your door or ringing on the bell. Signs are there when we least expect
them!
Energies which arose during the eclipse
cycle will flow into the change process as an ongoing effect of this past 4
week period. Whatever happened during that time is now working out in the
physical world. For many of us, it was a jailbreak from the limitations
and restrictions in the mind, body, heart and/or spirit.
Whatever is to happen has already been
set in motion. We just have to maintain intent and focus whilst taking
the steps that come up.
What’s been happening:
Endings, endings,
endings: A Scorpio experience! Eclipse experience!
Many people have been having mini
crises regarding ‘endings’ in their lives. The endings could apply to any
and all areas of our lives. Work, home, family, partnership, money, pets,
creative projects etc. etc. Many people have experienced the death of a
loved one, the loss of a job, the loss of a pet, the loss of a home, endings in
relationships, endings in career, endings in lifestyle.
Wild
weather: Big winds across the planet and extreme weather
situations! The winds of change!
The massive loss of life in the
Philippines expanded the planetary grief as it felt like so much energy was
leaving the planet. If you felt heavy like lead during and after this
experience, you were playing your part in feeling the pain of the darkness and
releasing it into the light. When these events occur, it’s important to
maintain meditation and healing practices as so many of us are shifting these
heavy energies through our light body.
As the old doors close, new
ones open: If you’re
experiencing a loss in your life or a potential loss/death, it’s helpful to
remember that something or someone dying to us brings new life and new promise,
even if you’re not ready for that new life yet. Allow time for the
letting go, feeling the grief whilst letting in new energies into your
life. Acknowledging and feeling emotions is pivotal for release.
Otherwise, the emotions get locked into the physical body and we develop some
kind of physical ailment. We are preparing to move into new lives in so
many ways.
This past
week:
20th November: Chiron
started moving forward...flushing out old wounds of the past 5 months!
Splinters released!
The day Chiron moved forward was a big
one with Chiron regrouping and stimulating old wounds of the mind, heart and
body for release. Whatever wounds you have been working with over these
past 5 months started coming up to the surface for clearance, like a splinter
emerging from an infection.
You mightn’t even know what those
wounds are. You may have been feeling disoriented or out of sorts
physically, emotionally and/or mentally as Chiron brought things to the
surface, as the old splinters are released! Chiron is sitting on the same
degree as Pluto in a positive relationship, bringing up all sorts of buried
darkness from within us and within the collective.
Splinters in the mind being
released: It may
have felt disorienting energy as while Chiron was stationing to move direct on
20th, Mercury was reconnecting with a number of other planets bringing us back
to a release of the mind set and mental polarity.
Planets changing
direction: Steam engine changing direction!
When planets change direction, either
to retrograde or go direct, it’s like changing a fast speeding steam train to
reverse direction. There’s a slowing down, coming to a standstill before
the engine starts building the steam to slowly move on in the opposite direction.
So, we’re still feeling Chiron gradually picking up speed.
22nd
November: Sun moves into Sagittarius 2.48 pm AEDT...the
open road of freedom beckons!
|
The road less
travelled: Freedom calls us on!
The open road calls us to adventure, to
explore, to investigate, to explore the world. We’re like kids on our first
backpacking overseas trip with the world at our feet and no fear!
Glass half full
perspective: Good ‘medicine’ every day!
With the Sun moving into Sagittarius,
we’re likely to feel upliftment and optimism. This gives us the ‘glass
half full’ perspective which will be a driving force for moving forward
with our hopes, dreams and plans.
This is like a dose of faith, trust and
positive thinking just when you felt you’d given up hope. Life starts to
look better than it has for a while. Make the most of this time to build
the understanding of your pathway forward, to ignite the passion in preparation
for the arrival of all the Capricorn energy ushering in 2014.
Seeking truth, knowledge,
understanding and wisdom: Our driving force for the next
month!
Sagittarius is a worldly energy,
freedom loving and seeking the open spaces of the mind and heart, seeking
connection with others, seeking the bigger picture, seeking understanding and
wisdom. This energy will inspire us to find the truth of our pathway
forward from this time. Seek and you shall find!
On the road
again: Explore, travel and learn! If it excites
you...go for it!
With Sagittarius, we’re firmly placed
on the road to higher truth and wisdom. Sagittarius energy wants to get
moving ruled as it is by Jupiter, an expansive fire sign which desires
activity, movement and meeting people.
Sagittarius calls to our free spirit,
independent minded self offering the courage that comes from a positive outlook
and an optimistic approach to life. Doubts and insecurities are likely to
fall away as we move through this next month, especially after the first week
of December.
Let’s get going everyone! My car
will be back on the road next week after it’s makeover. Perfect timing!!!
Was I releasing an ancestral blockage
when my car’s Welsh plug needed replacing??? Who knows!
Higher learning will excite
and stimulate: Answers will
emerge from ‘the bigger picture’!
Follow your interest!
Sagittarius rules higher education,
philosophy, religion, spirituality, teaching, learning, publishing, foreign
cultures and foreign travel. Answers to our questions will emerge from these
areas of exploration. You may well feel drawn to explore through actual
travel and/or through connecting with knowledge and people from other parts of
the world.
Finding the key to our
place in the world: Broadening the mind, broadening the options!
We’re being called to expand our
thinking, our perception and learning through exploring new ideas, belief
systems, cultures, religions, philosophies and higher spiritual
perspectives. In fact, any ‘higher’ education will be calling our
hearts and minds to learn and discover the truth of our life and our place in
the world.
Jupiter has been missing in
action: Well, it seems like that with Jupiter retrograde! But now, the
Sun’s movement into Sagittarius will bring Jupiter alive!
Sagittarius has been somewhat contained
with all the inner work of the eclipse, the Scorpio energies which have called
us to introspection. On top of that, Jupiter, Sagittarius’ ruler, has
just gone into retrograde motion. Remember we are gathering knowledge of the past.
Good time to write an autobiography!
Let the celebrations
begin!: Gratitude and optimism and a more spiritually focussed
energy with Jupiter retrograde in Cancer!
We might find that this year
Sagittarius will be a little more constrained by its ruler moving
retrograde. This is not necessarily a bad thing as sometimes Sagittarius
can be a bit over the top with everyone in some kind of desperate competition
to be happier than each other in displays of constant celebration of ‘the more
the merrier’!
‘Over the top’ party
time: Sagittarius calls out ‘the party animal’!
Remembering the joy of life!
This will be such a welcome energy for
so many of us this year after the past few weeks and months of intense and
seemingly relentless change. Sagittarius can just get out of hand in some
kind of displaced generosity of spirit manifesting as a daily hedonistic
celebration of life. However, this year, there will be a quiet gratitude
of the blessings and gifts in our lives. It will feel like we’ve made it
through some very dark challenges.
Mind you, we could all do with a little
hedonism after what seems months of heavy duty energies!
Comet Ison: A new
comet can now be seen travelling through our skies! For astrologers, an
omen of change!
Astronomy:
Comet Ison is heading towards a meeting with the Sun on November 28th.
Astronomers do not know whether it will survive that meeting. If it does,
it’s expected to offer a great show to the Northern Hemisphere sky watchers.
Astronomers consider it may
be the brightest body in our skies for 1000 years. That has yet to be
realised, IF it survives its meeting with the Sun. As it nears the Sun on
28th November, it will be less less visible. Its brightness will be
evident after that date as it moves into closer proximity to the Earth.
It will be closest to us on 26th December.
Astrology:
Comets are regarded as an omen of change when they make an appearance in our
skies.
With a new comet, like
Ison, the change is considered more significant and of a greater magnitude in
its impact. The expected brightness of Ison has added weight to the
predictions of its significance.
What is its likely impact
on humanity:
Jonathan Cainer has written
that “we can expect the comet to raise awareness, promote healing, foster hope,
inspire a quest for peace and help us wake up to the potential for higher
consciousness.”
Ison’s travels
through the zodiac signs give an indication of its likely influence:
20th to 28th
November:
Ison will be
travelling through Scorpio...is this our phoenix in the sky?
We know Scorpio rules
death, life, rebirth and transformation. We have been working with these
Scorpionic energies for some time in these past months. Scorpio is
destructive, but only in the interests of ongoing survival. Something has
to die in order for something to live.
From 28th November:
Ison will be travelling through Sagittarius assuming it survives the meeting
with the Sun on 28th!
As the comet comes to its
meeting with the Sun, it may disintegrate. If it survives, it will be in
Sagittarius followed by a retrograde back through the zodiac.
I think Jonathan Cainer’s
optimistic view of Comet Ison comes from the fact that Ison will be in
Sagittarius, a sign of optimism, hope and upliftment in our perceptions, our
worldly connections and oneness with humanity.
26th
December: It will be closest to the Earth IF it survives!

25th
November: Mercury meets Saturn in Scorpio at 16deg, 3rd time
lucky! From deconstruction to reconstruction of the mind!
What’s been
happening: Under a dark cloud of Scorpio since
September! We’re nearly there!!!
Mercury moves out of
Scorpio on 5th December. We won’t know ourselves when this happens!
Coming and going...into the
light then back to the dark:
These past few months, it
might have felt like you’d found the light of day and then were plunged back
into heavy energy and the dark cloud for some more cleansing! So if you
felt like you couldn’t get a grip, couldn’t hold to the light of a new day, it
was all part of the cosmic purification process. The energetic forces have been
helping us pace ourselves to get through this.
Mind
Games: Mercury moving forward through Scorpio travelling the
same road for the 3rd time! Not the road less travelled!
Mercury’s been trekking
back through Scorpio recovering ground travelled during its retrograde
period. The past few days its been meeting up with different planets
‘pinging’ them and stimulating old issues around mind control and the ‘control
freak’ within.
Deconstructing the mindset,
freeing the brainwashing of childhood, society!
It’s been a heavy duty
period with Mercury in Scorpio for such a long period of time. On top of
which, meeting with sober sides Saturn 3 times has been giving us all strong
messages about what’s important to us and clearing mindsets about who we are in
the world and where we’re putting our focus mentally with respect to building
our lives.
What’s coming
in:
25th
November: Mercury meets Saturn! Thinking outside the
box!
Focussing our
authority: Accepting our own personal mastery! Manifesting a clearer mind
and direction!
This meeting will be the
proof of the inner work we’ve accomplished with the probability we find our
mind and head clearer than it’s been for a while. Saturn is challenging as
Saturn demands nothing less than effort to do the best we can, to be the best
we can in our worldly lives.
Last piece of the
jigsaw?
It’s interesting that this
meeting is just before Mercury moves out of its retrograde shadow. It’s
like the last piece of this particular jigsaw falling into place, double
checking the work we’ve done on ourselves and our lives during this
period.
Challenges and
Opportunities:
Remember that any
challenges that come up around this time, before or after 25th, are a call to
you to own who you are!!!! This calls for a clear mind and a solid
commitment to yourself, your abilities and your pathway forward.
Saturn rules karma, so
there’s every chance we’ll feel a weight fall off our shoulders as we own up to
who we are, accept our mastery as creative beings who are creating our hopes
and dreams as we let the old burdens fall away.
27th
November: Mercury still in Scorpio, moves out of retrograde
shadow...ready to move out of the Scorpio cave!
Clarity and lightness
returns:
We’re out of the retrograde
shadow and now waiting for Mercury to move out of the Scorpio cave on 5th
December. The next week before that happens, we have the time and space
to experience our minds still transforming whilst out of the shadow
energy!
Until 5th December:
Reconstructing our psyche... time to ‘pull yourself together!’
The cave of our psyche is
looking a lot brighter than it has for a while. We can see the Sun and
the sky again. Harmony is returning to our mind as we start to put all
the shattered pieces of our being back together again.
All systems
go: Communication channels are open for business!
Delays, interruptions and
confusion in our mental state, our communications and our commercial dealings
are released from the grip of this challenging cycle. Now Mercury’s out
of shadow, we can safely move forward on projects with a clear mind.
A new way of thinking emerges:
New possibilities open up in our minds!
For most of us, the
challenges of this Mercury retrograde period would have been likely to be
personally centred on our psyche as the Scorpio energies transformed our
thinking, our beliefs and the way we handled ourselves in the world. Any
challenging interactions with others would have come straight back to you to
change your mindset.
What’s coming
in: Greater Clarity! Upcoming changes bringing us
further out of the mists of confusion!
3rd
December: New Moon in Sagittarius
5th
December: Mercury moves out of Scorpio into Sagittarius
8th
December: Mars moves out of Virgo into Libra
3rd December New Moon in
Sagittarius:
You may find new physical
changes will be put in place from the New Moon in Sagittarius on 3rd December,
a month after the New Moon in Scorpio eclipse. This will give us a
further shift out of last month’s New Moon solar eclipse in Scorpio. Another
step out of the cave.
5th
December: Mercury moves out of Scorpio into Sagittarius...the
veil falls away! ‘I can see clearly now, the rain has gone’!
During an extended period
of Mercury in Scorpio, our mind and communication manager has been lost in a
mist of confusion caught up in cross purposes as Mercury was forced to let go
of the mind control of our world. We have been travelling without a mind
manager and activating a heart manager. Clarity will return with this planetary
change and hopefully our mind will be happy to work in balance with our hearts.
Mars in Virgo until 8th
December: Continuing purification of the physical body and
our masculine energies!
Mars, our masculine energy
and our body is still undergoing the purification process of Virgo.
Cleansing of cell memories as well as the healing and realignment of our
masculine energies with a higher order.
We’ll be road testing our
work with our masculine energies and our physical bodies after 8th December
when Mars moves into Libra which is all about balance, harmony and justice.
Golden oldies:
For the Sagittarius Sun on
the move! This is good ‘medicine’...sing it until your heart and mind
sing!!!

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends

We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turning our way and our way
That’s all for now! Happy travelling!!!
