There is some astrological importance that I wanted to share with you about a few energy changes taking place this week, including the finalization of a 10 week Venus retrograde phase. But first, let’s talk about the sun, Pluto and Mercury.
Tomorrow morning (Oct 6) 7am pacific time the day starts off kind of rough as the sun squares Pluto. This doesn't always manifest as an outer event but the undercurrents will be very turbulent sitting up transformation within self and for relationships thru the week. Not everyone likes change so some people will resist the intensity they feel within. Some power struggles between people are likely. Accept and be prepared to move things forward!
Mercury moves direct!
October
8 we have Mercury moving direct
again. Remember back around September 17 Mercury stationed retrograded at 15
degrees Libra; appearing to move backwards from the Earth’s perspective.
Mercury is now stationing direct and will once again move forward over 0-15
degrees Libra for a 3rd and final time, reaching 15 Libra once again
on Oct 24. Although Mercury will be moving forward again, the universal mind,
ideas and conversations are still covering old territory from now until Oct 24,
and is what we call moving thru Mercury’s shadow. Therefore the true finalization of this
Mercury retro phase will be complete on Oct 24, at which time we will have more
clarity around ideas and plans with others that can start moving forward,
properly. However, it’s ok to start new projects and buy big ticket items once
again starting on Oct 8 as Mercury begins to track forward while the sun is at
15 Libra on Oct 8 highlighting matters that took place back around Sep 17! This
means the universe will be working on aligning people in some way around this
time. Pay attention to what you are thinking and talking about with others
around Oct 8 until the Libra new moon on Oct 12. There could be clues to
important relationship activity/communication that has affect on future.
Venus completes full retrograde phase started on July 25, moves into new sign and territory!
The
other change in energy I see happening on Oct 8 afternoon and evening is Venus
and the moon change signs. This is extremely important as Venus is the ruler of
Libra where the sun and Mercury are activating important relationship activity. As above so
below remember, therefore it’s likely some kind of relationship changes around
this time will occur. I’m not saying negative, just a change in energy, and
perhaps moving into a new beginning in some way in the weeks ahead. This move
from Venus into 0 Virgo marks the finalization of her entire retrograde phase
that started back around July 25 2015 at 0 Virgo. Venus is the universal energy
of the feminine, resources, values, relationships, attractions and desires that
went back into the past, giving people a chance to understand their own
personal self-worth and self -value more, while updating their general values helping
folks become clearer on what they want and value in their outer life as well.
Values for some people might have been updated along with having a better
understanding what they find the most valuable within relationship. The heart’s
pull has had a lot to do with what people have desired and are attracted to
lately. Now, as the feminine and ruler of relationships moves back into Virgo
there will be some changes to the universal feminine energy Including
relationships, attractions, desires and values. You see, now that people have a
clearer understanding of what they want, they will try and create it for the
long term in a very grounded practical way. It will be so much easier to see
what stands in the way. Venus into Virgo will greatly reinforce all the other
energy in Virgo right now including Jupiter and Mars making matters more
critical and serious than they have been; yet at same time, very creative
energy as well. Although there has been serious activity taking place, socially,
the energy has been light and playful thanks to Venus in Leo. Now the universal
social energy changes too. Creating good relationship health becomes more
important for most people but at same time things can be pointed out that no
longer is working. If so, try and stay open to hearing and understanding other
people’s perspective without getting too defensive. Try to be conscious of, and
fix what’s broke when it comes to your values and relationships. This is also
signaling a change in money matters, so making investments once again is
advised, especially after the Libra new moon on Oct 12.
Moon closes out the Leo energy, moves into Virgo with Venus, Mars and Jupiter.
Oct
8 has the moon changing signs too, from Leo into 0 Virgo with Venus around 1:01pm
PDT. As the moon is in transit through Leo Oct 6-8, it will be bringing a close
to the Leo energy that’s been in place all summer. As moon enters Virgo with
Venus, things change. This is the circumstances and universal mood aligning
with the relationship activity/energy that’s changing form right now,
reinforcing Virgo energy even more which is ruled by Mercury. Combine this with
Mercury turning direct that day, it would seem to indicate a change of mind and
perception about matters regarding, relationships, ideas, and personal values. Apply this to your own personal situation as
it’s different for everyone and you should get an idea of what’s coming for you
– a change in some way, especially within relationship. Perhaps new information has come recently, or something
that allows the mind and circumstances to move forward, even though there is
still another week or so before people will have full clarity on whatever it is
they are talking about and planning for the future with others.
New develops will start happening,
allowing for fresh relationship seeds to be planted for the upcoming year on
the Libra new moon Oct 12.
Oct 8 - 9 Saturn trouble!
As
the moon passes Venus it reaches and activates a square aspect from moon/Venus
to Saturn for the next couple days – late Oct 8 – Oct 9 our new updated values
in self and relationship get tested as Saturn reflects authority challenging
what has been brought forward. This is NOT a good time to push forward and ask
for what you want. Reflect on the feelings around this time before trying to
proceed forward. The moon is waning, headed for the dark balsamic phase after
all, needing acceptance and release of past before starting the new. A reality
check could take place either from circumstances or others in your life
presenting obstacles and challenges before you. On the other hand, the hard
feelings reflected by Saturn around Oct 8 and 9 could be your own inner
authority asking you to check in with the bigger picture of things. You see,
the Virgo energy has a grounded narrow focus but Saturn in Sagittarius is
asking for you to commit to something that perhaps is bigger than just your own
plans or short term focus, going big, but bringing that grand idea down to
earth. The events around this time need to be thought of in the wider bigger
picture while still taking action on the little details that will make it all
happen. Apply this info to whatever this is referring to, for you personally.
Don’t let fears and inhibitions get in the way of you going after what you want
if you happen to face challenges around this time. The problem, if there is
one, will pass quickly within a few days. Check in with the feelings that come
up, for better self-understanding. Accept and release negativity these few
days. When the tough energy passes it will be time for the Libra new moon which
has some powerful creative aspects allowing even greater progress and new
developments for the next lunar cycle that will be one of the most
transformative in the short term that we have seen in a while. The eclipses
changes us over the next year but this Libra new moon will give many
opportunities with others in very grounded practical ways that makes life
better for all involved. I’ll be posting about that later in the week. Until
then, stay conscious and see if you can notice the change of energy I’m talking
about here starting afternoon on Oct 8 until the new moon on Oct 12.
Let
me know if you need any personal insight about your own situation.
Have
a great week.
