Coming Soon!
You are not (just) your Sun sign!
The time has come for humanity to comprehend the full brilliance of the zodiac’s grand design. With the premise that the atoms inside our bodies are the same ones that comprise the universe, The Exquisite Zodiac reveals how every facet of the zodiac works in sync, and how we can apply the entirety of its intelligence and wisdom in a practical way.
The first step is to leave your Sun sign at the door. You will discover that each of us is a unique blend of every aspect of our natal charts. Then the authors mine deeper to explain why each sign is the way it is, and how all twelve are intricately related.
Why is Aries so impulsive?
Why are Capricorns so careful?
Why is Scorpio the sign of sexuality?
Why do Geminis have a split personality?
Why are Aquarians so idealistic?
And so on…
The Exquisite Zodiac bridges the gap between abstract, esoteric astrology books and those that are glib and misleading—thereby setting astrology on the proper track for our time. After reading this book, you will never view astrology—or yourself and your relationships—in the same way again.
Coincidences?
(Otherwise known as synchronicity)Do you think it’s a coincidence that they’re inspecting for cracks in the Washington Monument?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that the recent U.S. earthquake between Richmond and Washington, DC occurred precisely where a great number of Civil War battles were waged?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that the Mayan Calendar is about to end one major 26,000 year cycle?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that there have been major tornadoes, hurricanes and tsunamis just as Capricorn has inherited Pluto for 16 years?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that the stock market has been so unstable just as Uranus and Pluto have started to square each other?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that “Don’t ask, don’t tell” was repealed when Venus and the Moon were in an exact Grand Cross with the Pluto, and Uranus?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that the last time Pluto entered Capricorn, Britain lost control of the world just as is happening now with the USA?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that our international credit rating has gone down?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that people are starting to see the parallels between astrological positions and global events?
It Is Time
Things are very dire on this planet right now. Everyone knows that. We’re in the midst of a tremendous paradigm shift. We’ve never gone through this before. We were never ready before. Now, we are.
What’s true to the macrocosm must be the same to any and all microcosms, too. Synchronicity.
So?
I have written for years about all of these heavy transits of the planets and have explained each one ad nauseum. So, what gives?
After a healthy vacation (putting the finishing touches on my upcoming book,) I return somewhat refreshed. This month’s newsletter is not only about what we can do about all of this but is a 180° change of perspective on all of the “problems” we face as a world, country, and individually. I am not a sociologist nor a philosopher, but somehow I’m mixed up in all of this. I cannot separate myself from this or that.
So, I got to thinking.
We’re dealing with a very serious Pluto energy which is squaring Uranus, another powerful cosmic force. We’ve just finished dealing with a very long-term T-square with Saturn too. Saturn has moved on to the latter parts of Libra, but is being replaced temporarily by minor planets in Libra such as Venus and the Sun. This will extend the T-square a bit, ending around Oct. 7. Sigh.
So, we are left not only with 13 more years of Pluto, several tough years of its square to Uranus and the sleepers, Neptune and Chiron traveling together for the first time EVER over the next few years. I know this is a bunch of astro-talk but after all, this is an astrology newsletter. Please bear with me.
While it is very clear that the Pluto presence in Capricorn since January 2008 has certainly signified a massive breakdown to our country’s structure as well as the whole globe, there are many other planetary stresses being exerted now, too.
Pluto has had the unenviable job of digging up the corrosion, uncovering corruption and eliminating the waste. Seen any corruption lately?
There are many inherent problems with explaining astrology to the masses, and this planet Pluto might be at the top of the list. You see, Pluto is primarily very fair and just and PURE. It may be debated as to whether Pluto enjoys burning towns to the ground or taking its sizable backhand and swatting tsunamis upon our shores. Nevertheless, Pluto is here to clean up and make things right.
Now, what does all of this mean for us, since we’re such an ego-centered race? We want to know. The reason we want to know is that we looking for guidance, and in many cases, excuses.
When Pluto is pronounced in our collective world as it is now, it IS TIME for us to Pluto-fy our own life; our family’s life; our country’s life, and so forth. Pluto being where it is now means one thing: we are ready to take on the responsibility for our own footprint upon this wonderful Earth. That’s one of the things the planets “do,” they tell you when you have no more time.
They are our calendar.
Do you think it’s you that is picking the date for your wedding?
Do you think it’s you that is picking the date and time for your operation?
Think again.As I said, do you think that it is a coincidence that all of this pre-cleanup is lining up perfectly with the end of the Mayan Calendar’s 26,000 year cycle?
The planets tell us when we can no longer take time off; when we can keep shoving things back further into our closets, etc. That’s the advantage of astrology. The human ego says we can keep on shoving things under the carpet forever, but you see, Pluto’s job is to put a stop to it. And I do mean a permanent S-T-O-P to anything we might be doing that jeopardizes our own evolution. Pluto doesn’t care who “wins.” Doesn’t it seem like the Earth is saying enough already!? Pluto is pro-evolution.
There, I said the nasty “E” word, evolution.
Just as Pluto identifies blockages or weaknesses that inhibit our growth that we’re all being affected by, we have to realize that THIS IS THE TIME for us to clean up INWARDLY TOO. Actually, it’s where it should start.
I’m not going to go off on a sanctimonious stance now, but I am attempting to show how the zodiac’s beauty and exquisiteness is telling us in its own way how we need to act now.
This is not a moral lecture. Pluto does not deal with lectures. It deals with purity vs. corruption. Period. And this is just one planet.
When a Planet “comes over us” as Pluto has been doing for almost 4 years now, it imbues us with its archetypal perception and power. We have been Plutofied. Who hasn’t become fed up in the last 4 years? What institution has not had significant amounts of its dirty laundry exposed during that time. You get the idea.
But the idea herein is to emphasize the positive aspects of Pluto’s archetypal energy; our only choice. Pluto is kick ass.
Now is the time for us to recognize and own our divinity. We are all divine beings having a human experience. Pope John Paul would have told us that; Jesus told us that; all the great saints knew the same thing. Our Neptunes teach us that.
“Only God can save us now,” is one way of putting it. And it looks like that is pretty much correct. Not some bearded man with a huge throne. The God within us, Jesus, Mohammed, The Buddha, whatever you want to call this life spark within us. Hatred must stop. Now. Judgment must stop. Now.
We all know this…. Or, we can just keep jaggin around and have cable TV put on a 6th show about towing cars and maybe a 5th one about the exciting tension that goes on around pawn shops. More cage wrestling.
You know what I mean. The point is this: THIS IS NOT A BEHAVIORAL IMPERATIVE.
Living out of harmony with each other, other countries, and nature itself HAS PUT US HERE arguing about whether there really is global warming or not as poor polar bears are slipping into the sea and drowning.
We have to stop being idiots. And we all know that the world is insane right now.
Do you think it’s a coincidence that the first Tea Party
came into being because of “taxation without representation”
while the 2nd one is demanding “representation without taxation”?Are we nuts or not? I don’t have to tell you. Everything is bass ackwards.
Anyhow, as I have seen with SO many clients under Pluto transits, as soon as you find your courage and let go of the old system that no longer works for you, kazaam, your life goes straight up! I’ve seen it so, so many times. Hang on the old, and, well, it’s a sad result.
With Pluto, our courage is here. The collective is changing. Blogs and social media have made is less and less possible for us to BS each other anymore. Thank Goddess. You can make the changes you need to make. Fellow Americans are good people, just as they are in the Mid-East, and everywhere else: we will help each others.
Mothers across this globe must sign pacts to not allow
their sons and daughters to fight anyone any more.
For any lame reason.
Gandhi is back with us.
