Dawnings

As I write this, the heavens are forming a mystical rectangle with a Yod peaking at the Karmic Node and Chiron in Aquarius: Humanity is feeling the need (Sun Cancer) to heal itself and this beautiful planetary world (Moon Virgo) we inhabit. Here in South Eastern Australia, it is the depths of winter. A fire burns away in the hearth and it is raining. Bulbs of daffodils and jonquils are dancing in the cold morning air and the daphne and violets send their scent across the ethers.

Mikey, the ginger green-eyed cat, is tippy on warm milk and has ventured forth to explore the clean garden world.

Risa’s site this week describes the tasks for the new cycle ahead. My own Capricorny soul light is organising – deleting emails, scattered site entries and blog postings, clearing out files, pruning the roses and preparing for the next stage of this lifetime’s chequered journey.

On the 9th July, the Cancerian Sun is shying around Jupiter in Capricorn. A grand day for intuiting expanding horizons, even Bigger Picture insights and remembering our intentions. 

On 10th July, Saturn and Mars join forces in stimulating our fate and destiny – the Grand Plan – at 5 degrees Virgo. We live and learn. Time to anchor into the earth those impulses and energies that can run riot if we have not matured enough to want self discipline rather than imposed restriction. Faith.  Manners help. 

Mercury is heading to oppose Pluto in Sagittarius and the last remnants of our thinking from the past is kicking us to remember our visions of yesteryear and reconsider our options in the Light of today. Like any journey – what we plan and expect life to be up ahead is different when we arrive at any point in time/space – we and circumstances, will have changed by the time we get there!

Mercury then enters Cancer on the 11th July adding a sensitive element to the kicks from Mars.
I keep feeling/thinking that we are about to discover something important – perhaps the Sun trining Uranus on the 15th will reveal more of us to ourselves. 

Venus sallies into Leo with a flair on 13th July so some confidence shall return to boost our flagging spirits.  We may even regain our sense of humour.

Spaceweather reports an Aurora at the North Pole.

The instinct to remain curled up in my wool doona is strong – winter IS for hibernating.

Can you feel the trembling in the body?

Do you sense the ripples of anxiety and uncertainty painting the glass ceiling of our societal reticence?

Are you jelly-like yet resolute? After all – we have only the choice to live, to grasp moments for what they are and let go of what has been, boggled by what may be.

My new work path ahead in time (if and when I get there) will be different. The closing of the astroblog and the refining of my workload is based on serious considerations. Yes, I have delighted in the creative and intuitive process of writing these Blog postings. I have chosen to economise on my energies.

This site shall remain for about two more months. Then – well, I’ll think about what to do along The Way.

Our ability to change, reinvent ourselves, and adapt is our evolutionary process.

Being conscious of it is not always comfortable. I am reminded of the Tibetan monks spending hours creating stunning and intricate designs in coloured sand – then ceremoniously pouring them into the sea.

Like the violets – moments in life can be sweet, pure and so lovely – then it is over for another while in time.

Blessings.

* Update12th July: Planet Waves  weekly has published a fascinating description of Buckminister Fuller – it is the anniversary of his birthday. The article by Eric Francis (and team) explores this genius and his amazing contributions to humanity. Bucky Fuller’s ideas and inventions are needed NOW! Well worth a weekend’s ponderings.
