Hi Rad and All,
I was thinking about starting a thread where we can comment on current transits as they occur, hope it is ok.
With that in mind I was noticing the new year will start with a stellium at the end of Capricorn with Venus and Pluto exactly conjunct at 27 degrees but also asteroid Lucifer will be there at the same degree and mercury retrograde at 23 degrees, and asteroid Lilith in Virgo exactly trine mercury (it's own ruler). All this planets are in new conjunction to Pluto's south node at 20º degrees. Saturn is at 22 Aquarius and mercury/lilith are still trining Uranus at 15 taurus.
What occurs to me is that this is time where we should remember and recover our resilience and self-determination to move forward, at the same time we pay attention to patterns of self-defeat and fragmentation that could lead to a sense of depression and loss of meaning, because seeing asteroid Lucifer right at the stellium can make things appear much worse than they are. And with lilith mercury, it seems feminine energy, the true and natural nature of the feminine can really serve as healing to the mind and soul. So a duality in trusting the self and distrusting some of the messages, where the truth can be seen in the real natural essence of ourselves.
I wonder if anyone has any other thoughts on these transits.
Wishing All the best for the new year,
Helena
Hi All,
For those who follow the asteroids for the natural feminine, i just noticed there is a amazing exact grand earth trine in the sky with pluto, ceres and vesta.
Much could be said, but right away, what a great moment to devote ourselves to effect the work of RENEWAL and REBIRTH since this is right at Summer Solstice and the new moon! Amazon is conjunct Ceres and also part of the trine and in exact trine to Saturn, while the Sun is exact to Juno. Current moon in cancer trine neptune and sextile ceres and vesta makes for this beautiful Kite in the skies - whatever it is that the pluto moon oppositon brings front and center we can always balance that with dreaming and acting on that which it can move our lives forward and renewed. What a perfect moment to Rise! The pluto trine Ceres is symbolically very important relative to healing and coming back from deep the underground and enjoy a new cycle of the Sun. This is the time to enjoy that. With the juno sun in gemini t-square the ceres and neptune i'm inclined to say the skies invite us to shed whatever alliance is getting in the away of positive renewal and not to be afraid to re-start again even if that means going on one's own (mercury, the ruler, is too t-square amazon and saturn - pass the blocks and trust new ideas or alliances even if that means an alliance with a new version of ourselves!)
What a great time to put the structure down for a new cycle where recovering something from the past (pluto rx last passage to saturn starting to align with the perfect square to the nodes) might be useful to built something new.
Whishes of a beautiful summer solstice to All,
Helena
