Given Psyche slipped into Aries yesterday perhaps her message is to take all images derived while asleep and awake daydreaming and apply them toward life considerations entirely in the spirit of “What does this mean to you and only you?”
A heap of dream work is interpretation. Can dreams serve in a precautionary manner? Sure. Can they suggest where your psyche requires some shoring up and point out where you require reinforcement emotionally? Absolutely. Especially with what's fixing to happen in Pisces the sign most associated with dreams and daydreams.
Ceres conjoins the dwarf planet Gonggong in Pisces on 9 March. Here the instinctive advocacy of Ceres takes on all things Gonggong, and proposes such things as possible solutions to matters Gonggong. Besides the love Gonggong had for creating mayhem on Earth, those seeking to exploit his mythology may benefit from subtle details, perceptual considerations and the intrinsic foreshadowing attributes of his nature.
According to the mythology, in a knock down, drag out fight Gonggong had with another deity, he was knocked off balance and hit is head on the Earth. As a result, the Earth tilted, achieving what is now known to be its obliquity, roughly twenty-three and a half degrees. Another curious orbital fact is that with his approximate 549-year orbit about the Sun, Gonggong’s stroll about the Sun is in the same duration range as that of Eris. Like Eris, he understands that all realizations be held in the forefront of consciousness for the long term in order to be successful in aiding life to work out more ideally. Both Eris and Gonggong acknowledge consciousness stems from seeing events and allowing whatever time required to achieve full comprehension of how perceptual shifts work in the real world, and more, how to extract immediate benefit.
Actually the Ceres to Gonggong conjunction occurring in Pisces is a major plus as it facilitates
doing what is required to accurately view ones perception of reality. This conjunction represents
a “Huh” moment of consideration of those things appearing that may encourage a tilting of the
head to align with the unusual points of view presented in the real world.
Aquarians totally get this. Given their rulership by Uranus, tilted at 98 degrees, they are acclimated to tilting their head when working around what another person says. Similarly, they are certainly familiar with others cocking their heads when attempting to grok their latest declaration of reality. How deliciously ironic that a tilt in perceptions can prevent a pinball machine-like tilt in life.
In Pisces, the Ceres-Gonggong conjunction inspires the concept of subtle foreshadowing. Should one be a fan of campy horror-suspense films, potentially these film fans benefit most from the upcoming conjunction. These viewers, largely because of their fandom, instinctively respond to the Dutch Angle - angling of the camera in a shot. This camera tilt, produces a view on the film that is slightly oblique. Savvy viewers know that something hugely important lurks just around the bend and to heed all data presented as the plot unfolds. "It's a get ready, something's going down" prompt.
This conjunction notes that how you look at any life event can absolutely shift perceptions of that situation. The late Robin Williams did this in the film DEAD POET’S SOCIETY when he led his student to stand on chairs and desks to see life from a different point of view than normal. In photography - ruled by Pisces - great photographers often shoot from a point of view not normally seen, which captivates the perception of the viewer. The current fascination with drones conjures similar reactions as they provide a normally not seen birds-eye view of the real world. The song, I DON'T KNOW BIRDS THAT WELL by the Mona Lisa Twins (worth a Google search and listen - the twins are Geminis with Virgo Moons) ponders, “How it feels like from above,” and ends with, “How it feels like to be loved,” a clear emotional speculation that could easily be assigned to Pisces. As well, visions of being loved do support Psyche in Aries.
With the current transit, if one adopts a Dutch Angle perspective of all those things so adamantly proposed and supported by life circumstances, this works to enhance a more appropriate and timely response to what lies ahead. To achieve such a point of view, one could examine a paper with your to-do list written upon it from an extended and unusual yogic posture. Rolling over a Pilates Ball provides and viewing your action item list provides another way of securing a fresh and inspiring alternative vantage on your objectives. You could climb a tree for a look at the landscape as the owl sees it. No matter what you examine these days, doing so with whatever obliqueness you can create ensures faster alignment and comprehension.
Whether a physical perception alternate position is taken or whether one simply views things from a distinctively new point of view, oblique is where it’s at. Alternate reality seeing is a thing that according to Eris and Gonggong should to be part of the substrate of any spiritual system. Such seeing works to include you in the life strata you seek. It’s not about adopting someone else’s crazy half-baked theory. It’s about asking yourself with Psyche in Aries, if your current perceptions afford the best look at unfolding realities. Within that, does your position in life afford you the optimal perception and best serve your self interest? Can you seek the obliquity required to comprehend all abstractions presented that hint at how life could better be engaged?
With Venus retrograde, the reconsideration of a vital point exists. Has everything you took on since Mars retrograded back in December worked to serve personal purposes? If the answer is uncertain, adopting a more unorthodox slant on life just might provide a larger slice of life.
Oblique is in.
This week I am attending a film festival. While I am responding to all orders and requests for consultations, my response time may be a bit longer than normal. If you want to be in the queue when I return or soon thereafter using the links below to get scheduled is the timely thing to do! We can talk about Ceres' and Gonggong's influences and whatever else shifts perceptions the necessary tad.
