As the Sun in Aquarius prepares to conjoin Ceres on 14 February, multiple transits stir a cacophony of cosmic messaging that insist upon clear conscious attention, despite the lack of harmony. The Sun-Ceres alignment implies advocacy and is preceded by Mercury first clearing both these bodies by conjunction. In this pattern, recognizing that one no doubt holds a unique bent to conditions at hand and has a lot to say about those matters, first apply one of Mercury’s lesser used skills - listening. Mercury stands out as the cosmic transceiver. How does this planet know when to transmit or receive? There would seem to be an unusual pulse sequence in the force field currently. The suggestion is to take in all information without filtering. This allows the table to be set with all collective concerns prior to offering definitive solutions to others. Listen to all things, even and especially that input that screeches out of tune. Such discordance denotes the collective concern threshold and indicates how much anxiety swirls about, conjured by those life events that cannot be defined in advance.
In addition to his alignment with Saturn, Nessus simultaneously conjoins Psyche in Pisces. Psyche adds invaluable assistance by asking, “What do you dream about and how do such dreams represent your subconscious concerns about the hand life deals you?” The recognition of the non-conscious driving forces in life aids in assessing motive, which directly applies to the intention behind all actions taken in life. Knowing your own origin story, clarifies things you choose that reduces complications to the plot of life. When writing an affirming life script of aspirations, position the denouement such that no one takes any issue with the successes you create or the reasons those life choices were pursued in the first place.
Okay, now go full Aquarius and tell everyone you meet how the cow eats the cabbage, or at least the cows in your barn. An understanding of subjectivity goes a long way in successful conjuring of objective realities. The best one can offer in this time is to pass along the observation that the process of reaction takes as long as it does. Such processing includes the emotional adjustment to all things new, strange and potentially disrupting. The advocacy at hand supports full emotional reaction in ones own space - however long that takes, and then reentry into the world with no assumption as to the ease or difficulty of events yet to unfold - simply the knowing that recent emotional sessions create a sensible sequence of perceived actions one must engage in the immediate times that follow.
Now for the really fun stuff. It there was ever a time to consider dharma, the North Node and Neptune conjunct in Pisces, square the core of our galaxy over yonder in Sagittarius is that time. Recently the North Node departed Aries and entered Pisces. This represents the shift toward prioritizing emotional reactions and now reviewing reactions heard with regard to personal steps taken in life to advance ones causes. There is the sensation that having initiated those things that have been done, now its time to stretch all sensibilities into the cosmic and ask, “What cosmic good can come from everything I have done? Where and how should I reset my navigational devices?”
This is a bit like installing weather and traffic apps combined with the wild fire app, Watch Duty, in use so much of late in Los Angeles. With these apps it is simpler to determine which roads to drive, what conditions may impact the journey and what potentially catastrophic hazards can be avoided. The square of node and Neptune to the Galactic Center is akin to asking, “What knowledge is required by the times at hand.” By offering such a question, the galaxy perceives it as a petition and provides a plethora of insight to apply as soon as it is understood. Truly, there is a bit of delay between the awareness of information and full comprehension of the cosmic insights. Should you declare new insights to others prior to their ability to wrap around it, they’ll roll their eyes. No matter. Stick a pin in the point made and come back to it in a couple of months. Your ultimate point is to navigate life with an impeccable sense of knowing when you’re on the path or not - literally and figuratively staying in your perfect lane.
Dharma refers to virtue and the path of the right way of living. Dharma does not seem to care what navigational aid you may employ. Dharma intends to get you from here to the ideal as a modality in ones life, by hook or by crook, with or without apps and without the need for unending QR codes. Conscious engagement with the full support and intention of the soul purportedly mitigates the creation of any karma that requires reconciliation.
Instinct and cosmic sensibility prevails. Include all insights even if evidently irrelevant in the moment. Sensibility on all levels functions best when an individual is up to date with emotional reactions and when the course ahead is well-intended. If destination in a spiritual sense seems difficult to grasp, go a bit more Aquarian with the assessments needed in life. Add a new perspective, an alternate point of view and consider that in the Universe, how things appear entirely depends upon where one is positioned.
More soon.
