In the wee hours of 21 January (GMT) Pluto drops his Capricorn cloak and goes for something more of Aquarian airy style. There’s a big shift encroaching upon the collective consciousness as he pushes in the clutch for a better gear ratio. Slowly, over the next months, those things seemingly doused in impossibility begin to make more sense and options for resolution appear.
On the 15th to 16th of January, depending upon where in the world you are located, three interesting transits appear that include two dwarf planets and a centaur. Closer inspection might just reveal something new, previously not considered, and within the theme of Pluto changing signs, open an entirely new spectrum for consideration.
The massively ringed one, Saturn, joins Gonggong in Pisces. Here alternative perspectives organically evolve when one savors any feeling of being stuck or immobilized. Saturn curiously will ask those not moving, “So, what are you going to do about this?” He deserves a good answer. An answer that contains practical objectives, a well-thought timeline, and a unique perspective. Back in the old days of pinball playing if a player jolted the machine for favor, the game could end in a tilt. With Saturn to Gonggong, a new tilt is required. Oblique points of view often align with long distance goals with sufficient parallax that one can actually see around the next bend and accurately determine what more may be required.
Saturn with Gonggong supports none of the tried and true that does not “grow corn,” “make hay” or produce a viable yield. Saturn in Pisces is not quick to condemn or criticize - actually here he can be quite empathetic. Those agreeing to get on with the getting on regardless of the tilted perspective receive kind support, thoughtful suggestions and an ample supply of grease . . . provided that Saturn senses the will to persist and persevere regardless of previous setbacks in life. Saturn kindly points out that what happened before happened before and with the new angle of approach toward life’s objectives, certainly results unlike any produced before may manifest... and it all seems to happen more swiftly if one can remain in their personalized creative zone.
Mars aligns with and passes by the centaur Pholus in Capricorn. These two currently navigate the thickest array of pulsars known. These pulsars jab new ideas and lofty concepts at ones cranium more regularly and faster than the speediest popcorn popper on Earth. Taking time to read the bumper sticker-like blips of consciousness reaching for your attention goes a long way in feeding creativity and locking onto inspired brainstorms.
Mars in Cap is exalted. Here, he is maximum in drive. He is impatient, eager and so keyed on getting going with projects that life essentials - food and drink - can be ignored. It’s never a good idea with a Mars transit to risk hangry. Pholus is all about food and drink. He insists that one make a ritual - a ceremony of eating food that is prepared properly. He asks if how you eat and drink and whatever other substances you may take in the interest of consciousness, totally and fully nurture your being. If a no, Pholus supports abrupt changes in diet, method of consumption, time taken for consumption, and quality of those things consumed. He wants all nurturing in life to be treated reverentially... as if it is a ceremony. In fact, he urges all to consider that every act taken in life is on the path of karma leading to dharma and thus a purposeful ritual. As such, all acts are meritorious (as in those things worth doing) and all efforts applied in life are indeed intended to fulfill the purposes of the soul.
Venus draws an exact bead on Ceres in Sagittarius at a degree in between the Great Attractor and the Galactic Center. They both draw from both galactic points. Very recently, both these goddesses aligned with a collection of potent black holes in Sagittarius. In this recent degree passage, thoughts on the table and up for discussion include:
Becoming an expert in all you do, or consulting only with those with impeccable wisdom when seeking advice, encouragement or critique.
Ensuring that all things done totally and completely align with ones beliefs. Consistency in creativity and consciousness.
Recognizing and revering every morsel of personal knowledge gained and committing to apply it fully in every life act, including thoughts, words and deeds.
Ceres and Venus advance upon and seek the wisdom of the Galactic Center. Together, they seek to understand the energy underscoring any life difficulty. With understanding, the energy can be shifted, and almost if by strategic pointing of a magician’s wand, the path can clear with insights applied. Ceres and Venus may be tempted to offer up critical - potentially judgmental life reviews. The recent transit to the Great Attractor presumably refreshed beliefs with the thought that new concepts deserve to be considered before dismissal. That everyone has a place in the plan. Inclusion is the easiest way to reduce resistance from others. And finally, everyone expects you to land those insights buzzing around inside their heads with a blazing and thoughtful information drop.
With these gravitationally significant galactic gizmos and their ongoing transits by planets, time and space warp as a matter of course. It’s simply what happens. What you realized today the world needs to know now takes some time for the collective to wrap around. While it may feel boring initially, reading from a journal what you documented six-months might do the trick. What you have assimilated... and come to understand... can be elucidated with greater ease that your latest high flying idea that still requires emotional adjustment on your part and a major dose of grounded applications to make sense of it.
While this may seem old hat, when utility is realized. progress is made, and previously stationary wheels move forward, know that your contribution of the galactic goodies you currently grok, works smoothing in resolving logjams without dynamite. Also, remember, to make the mundane move again and give it momentum, requires altering the energy that prevails as the substrate of stuck situations... not forcing, dominating or manipulating... simply unknotting that ball of energy.
These transits which precede Pluto donning his bright Aquarian duds by less than a week promote believing that things can work out more ideally than previously imagined. Really!
Can you think of a better way to start this brand spanking new year than with such thinking? Neither can Saturn, Pluto, Gonggong, Ceres, Pholus or Venus.
More soon...
This is a prime time to schedule a consultation or to load up with a reserve of consultations. A Galactic Report may shed new insights on life scenarios. You can also ask a question or two, or schedule a half-hour session if that’s what works better for you. The links below will get you started.
In film world news, recently I was brought onboard to write the narration for a documentary of the history of aerial photography. As well, I am in preproduction on a short film that I will direct in early March, UNBRIDLED, written by my partner, Lesley. And there’s something else stirring that Pluto insists remain invisible for the time being.
Next month, there will be a new way to watch my multi award winning short, ZAP! and also my most recent short film, METEORIC. Both these short films deal with matters in the skies above.
Stay tuned.
