Venus Enters Libra (September 29, 2014)

Your Dearest, your Brightly Shining One, is coming home once again.

At times you will see her there, in the twilight gleaming…

She is the First Star of the Night, your Evening Star, setting just after the Sun.

At other times, such as now, you will see her in the blush of a New Day…

She is your Morning Star, the Bringer of Light, the Keeper of your heart.

She is Prometheus, who brings to you the Fire of Love and Understanding,

She is the Herald of Spirit, who welcomes the Dawning of each New Day.

Whether Setting or Rising, Venus is the Avatar of your most Sacred Truth,

That in the end, the measure of any life that was, is or will be is quite simply,

Did you understand how it is done, did you live with, for and by Love?

Welcome Venus now as she returns to her most special realm. Today Venus comes home to bring you these Gifts of Spirit, to brighten and illumine your Shared Sacred Spaces where you will find, forge and share your love of one another.

One Half of your Journey of Love is about understanding that this is your True Nature. That the One True Force that binds together all of this Creation as One, this same Resonance also holds all that you are as one too…That in the Innermost of everything and so in the innermost of you there is a Spark of the Divine. Divine Love abides within you, and because of this you are and will always be Loved, because in your essence you are this Pure Love.

But the other half of your journey is to experience this same Divinity, to know this same Supernal Light of Love “out there”…You are here to know objectively what you already sense intuitively. You are here to leave behind doubt and fear, to move from darkness and into the Light. You are here to lift yourself and one another out of unawareness and into the Greater Awareness. You will come to experience outwardly through and with one another the fuller measure of this Divine Love, and you will know that this Love is the essential core of all that surrounds you. Most especially, most wonderfully and personally, you will find this Light and Love forms the essence of what you hold and have for one another too.

Venus in Libra is about your relationship with and to one another. It is about the “I and Thou”. It is the Dance of Light and Love that takes you into the weaving way of Cause and Effect, where you learn to care for another as you care for yourself, where you experience the Love that you Receive is equal to the love that you Bestow.

Yes, you must first understand your truth, you must know and love yourself…for that is your nature and your destiny too.

But you long to share this love with your beloved, and to feel their love in turn being offered back to you. 

Venus sings to you now...

The Song that is in your Heart,

Is the song that sings in every heart.

You are here to Love, and be loved,

You are here to love one another.

Just love.

Mercury Enters Scorpio (September 27, 2014)

The Third Water/Air Dance begins…

Mercury dives into the deepening Waters of Scorpio now…

Time to pierce beyond the forms and formalities of your relationships…

Time to take you and your beloved into the Heart of your Union.

For this is the most important question you must answer in your life: How do you do this, how can we two become one without losing ourselves? How can we join and not be lost in one another…or fail to join and so lose one another? How can we become one and also remain as two? How can we be more ourselves by being together than we can ever be apart? How?

Perhaps you will find the way, (for it is on you to do this in your own way and in your own time), as Mercury weaves his way, back and forth between these realms of Water and Air once more. Perhaps it is this very looping and turning back of Mercury that will show you a way through and beyond so as to fuse your Reasoning and your Feeling and hold them as one too. That in this dance of Spirit-Forms you will find a way to bring together your Head and your Heart, and so bring you and your beloved to that special place of being even more true to yourselves, yet also together and true to one another too.

Yes, Mercury is making another round between the realms of Water and Air…

Mercury is poised to turn retrograde once more this year on October 4^th, and retrace his steps and so back into the Air Sign of Libra on October 10^th, then to turn forward once more on October 25^th, and finally re-enter the realm of Scorpio/Water on November 8^th.

This is the final of three such Air-Water-Air-Water shifts this year. These were the triple gifts of Mercury to you this year, offerings to help you leap the seeming divide between your Thoughts and Feelings, between your Head and your Heart. Mercury, the messenger, as your guide and teacher, is here to help you remember and trust who and what you are, to help you become as you were, are and will always be…a living Spirit of remarkable Wisdom, Love and Will.

The first dance of Water and Air was February/March with Aquarius-Pisces, the second was in May/June with Gemini-Cancer, and now this magical fulcrum of Air and Water in Libra and Scorpio completes your Triad of Truth, of the Integral Way that is the path of Spirit for you this year.

The dance of Scorpio-Libra-Scorpio will require you to bring your fullest measure of your capacity to face your fears of rejection and loss, to be fiercely fearless if you wish to join as you need and must with one another. Your greatest strength will be revealed by your opening up to one another, and that your vulnerability will be as a sign of your character and strength. That in and by your love and commitment to one another, you will bridge the separation formed by the fear that stands between one another. To join together truly, you must sacrifice something for one another and pass beyond fear-based boundaries, you must forge that shared, sacred space where you will ultimately hold nothing back from one another. You will cross into that sacred space where you can be as one, united and whole with one another, and even more truly yourself too.

Yet, in some of these attempts to make the Union real, you may go beyond what is right and reasonable, you may end up being “the sacrifice” rather than making a sacrifice. That is why, as Mercury returns to Libra, that is why you may find a refreshing renewal of your objectivity and sense of balance is offered to you. With Mercury’s help, you can try to forge a truer relationship that folds together your Passion for Union with your Reason of what is Righteous and Fair too. For what would be the point of sacrificing what makes you “you”?

You are a complex hierarchy of Energy-Matters: from Spirit, to Mind, to Feeling, to Body…and all must work together, and they must blend, join, cooperate and modulate one another in a delicate dance or balance of sensibilities in order for you to be as you will become one day, an awakened Dream-Maker worthy to be a conscious Co-Creator of this Creation.

Follow Mercury, your Guide and Messenger now as he weaves together Water and Air.

Be as a child of this Creative Playground of Light and Love...

Blowing Bubbles of Spiritual Substance and Truth.

Let your Airy Thoughts be Lovingly caressed…

By your Deep Felt Feelings for one another.

Let your Passionate Desires be Mindfully expressed…

By your Loving Thoughts to care for one another.

Be your Truth, Mindful and Loving...

Be the Creator of We,

Be the Creator of You.

Jupiter Trine Uranus (September 25, 2014)

Here is one of the signature moments of the year. This is what I wrote about this particular alignment of Jupiter with Uranus in my 2014 Forecast:

Jupiter Trine Uranus (September 25, March 3, 2015 and June 22, 2015)

The Avatar of Truth meets the Lord of Individuality. This is the major element that forms one side of the Grand Trine in early October (the other two sides being Mars Trine Jupiter and Mars Trine Uranus). This is the focal element of this beautiful formation and illustrates one of the prevailing qualities that drive or creates your truly unlimited potential for growth.

Your Individuality or process of Self-Becoming (Uranus) is the real source of Growth or Expansion (Jupiter). You are always unfolding your potential, your Seed of Spirit contains this germ of Individuation as does every speck of Creation, for it is from this need of the One to manifest and become the many that the whole Universe has come into being in all its wondrous and diverse Beauty...and you are a most essential part of this specialness that underlies and gives meaning to this Cosmos.

But this Trine of Jupiter and Uranus is made more precious by the integral understanding that is formed by the Grand Fire Trine which will climax between October 4-8. Here is what I wrote about that in the General Forecast for 2014:

The Grand Fire Trine (Uranus, Jupiter and Mars) Sept/Oct 2014

Truly a gift of the spirit, this beautiful pattern formed by these three will provide a greater measure of hope and inspiration for your world. I will write more extensively about this pattern in September and October, but for now I will summarize it in this overview:

Though forming up over the period of about three weeks, you will probably feel the foreshadowing of this beauty when Mars enters into the Fire Element when he moves into Sagittarius on September 13. Then you most certainly will feel the fuller effects when Jupiter and Uranus reach their exact trine alignment on September 25, which is followed about a week later as Mars joins the pattern exactly as he aligns first with Uranus and then with Jupiter between October 4 and October 8.

The Fire Element concerns the Energies of Inspiration, Idealism and Vision. When planets are found in one of each of the three Fire Signs, and equally spaced from one another, they then form a most beautiful pattern that mirrors or reflects the beauty and balance found by this resonance of energy formed by this particular element, in this case a Grand Triangle of Fire.

From their interplay and integration with one another, their Fiery Message will be articulated in this manner:

From Uranus in Aries, you will receive a renewal of Inspiration so that you may forge a Freer Presence that will help you to move through your world with Grace and Adeptness. From Jupiter in Leo, you will receive a benevolent gift of renewed Idealism so that you may lead from the Truth that lies at the core of you, and so find and release your Courage in Authentic Performances. And from Mars in Sagittarius, you will be filled by a most vital gift of focused Intention, your Desires being transmuted into ever Greater Aspirations, as right Thinking and Right Action combine to keep you upon the Noble Path of Wisdom.

These three in combination bring to you a triple Gift of Spirit so that you and your companions may find that Bridge of Light between the Old and the New, between Left and Right, between Fear and Delusion...and find a way to the Greater Truth that there is more that we hold dear and in common than separates us from one another.

We need this reminder now more than ever, we need to recall that the guiding principle of our Intentions and Actions will come to be guided by what binds one to one, and all to the One and that is Love.

Today you enter this Sacred Space of Fire, held most supremely by these two Avatars of your Journey in Spirit, Uranus and Jupiter.

Uranus, holds forth as one of the three principles of the Divine in Motion for you, (Uranus/Your Free Mind, Neptune/Your Unconditional Love and Pluto/Your Centered Will). Uranus will always by virtuosity and intelligent brilliance sing to you of your Individuality and Uniqueness in the Song that is Spirit. Uranus is bringing his message of Authenticity to you now from the first Sign of Aries, from the Realm of your Character, which is how you meet the world around you by your bearing, your demeanor and your attitude.

Uranus represents your ever-unfolding potential to lift your mind into ever more sublime realms of Lucid and Free Thinking, beyond the boundaries of any one system or belief structures, drawing you closer and closer to the Ageless Teachings and Way of Wisdom. As you do this, your attitude and approach to yourself and your world becomes ever more refined and appropriate, so that you are able to bring to bear from within yourself exactly what the needs of the moment require from you. You become more fully aware, awake and ready to be neither overwhelming or underwhelming…you are able to form your “presence” so that it is just right, so that you contribute the right measure of you to each situation you encounter. 

Jupiter, is the Avatar of your Beliefs, Principles and Truths, of what you hold as your guiding Lights of Awareness. These sparkling Jewels of Spirit, that you hold in your Mind and Heart, elicit your “motivations", guide your “Intentions” and keep you upon the noble path of your journey of becoming.

Jupiter is holding forth from the Realm of Leo at this time. You seek through Leo the path of Honor and Respect, of being True to yourself by and with the love you feel for yourself. But this is only half of Truth, for the other half of this must be equally lived out as well: you must respect and honor the Understanding and Truths of those with whom you journey too. You can only live by and earn respect by showing respect to one another, as you can only fulfill your love of you by loving equally the one who is before you too.

The Fire Trine of Uranus and Jupiter is here to remind, affirm and guide you upon the noble path of Right Intention/Right Conduct.

That you can only be Loving and True to yourself…

When you Respect and Honor one another too.

That you are here to find and follow the Path of Wisdom…

And Live in the Truth that is Unconditional Love.

Love one Another.

Sun Enters Libra (September 22, 2014)

You come out of Non-Being,

From what some would call “No Thing”,

A Precious, Wondrous Spiritual Spark of the Divine.

You are a Luminous Beaming of the One Supernal Light.

You are endowed, as is all of Spirit, with the urge to Grow, to become Fully Aware and Awakened.

You journey through many realms and stages of Consciousness,

Through your many, many worlds, through your many lives and experiences,

You move out of the Darkness and into the Light, as you lift yourself from:

Simple Awareness…To Personal or Self-Awareness…to Transpersonal Awareness.

There you will be complete as Human, at-one-ness with your Higher Self, abiding in Lucidity and Unconditional Love.

You emerge from the Hosts of Light, a bright beaming particle of Spirit whose peregrinations through Forms and Worlds, as an Infinitesimal dancing through Infinities, finds you seeking and searching, inwardly and outwardly, ever longing to become one with your Higher Self within as also with the Creation that is all around you.

You spin your webs of destiny and always and ever behind them all you will find, as you forge these innumerable pathways of the Silver Chord of Spirit, you find that it was always there, your essential Being...That in your Origin there too is your Destiny, to be one with the One.

The Astrological Year has come to this most special turning point again. Four Seasons mark your year, Four Turnings in your bobbing and weaving Spiral Dance around your Star. In this play of Lights and Shadows, of waxing and waning Energy-Forms, the Fall Equinox marks the time you will more considerately and consciously join hands with one another, and forge together your hopes and dreams that are made of your experiences with and through one another.

Libra is the Gateway to your Return. For as you look into the eyes of your partner, as you gaze into the window of the soul of your beloved, you will see looking back at you “the presence”, the awareness of awareness that is also there within you. Yet, not quite “you”, for each spark of the Divine is different, each is a luminous monad of the One. Yet the one before you is, as you look into their eyes once more, they are so familiar to you...and it is then that you will tremble and bow down as you see beyond the present shells into this well of fullness, of ancient memories and your future lives too.

You are drawn to one another, again and again, because you have made one another in life after life. You are your relationships, and they also are made of and by you. There is no way really to undo or untangle you from one another, for all your experiences that have made you “you”, these have been formed and forged with and through them. Your Silver Chords of Destiny weave around and through one another, forging a tapestry of Light and Love that is your Karmic Bridge to your greater reality of the Love that holds the whole of Creation in the Heart of the One.

It is time to celebrate your Relationship…

To the one who is before you,

To the One who is always within.

For you are never alone…

You are always loved…

Forever and Ever,

Amen.

Mars Enters Sagittarius (September 13, 2014)

The Spirits of Fire are stirring…

From Uranus in Aries,

Round to Jupiter in Leo,

Mars joins them now to make this Shining Trio.

A Triad of Intention, of Love and of Truth…

These are the Gifts of Spirit, these Tripartite Blessings,

Lovingly embracing you and your World.

Mars is moving on, sweeping out of the mysterious depths of Scorpio’s waters, where the secrets of life and the keys to your immortality lie. He leaps and bounds into the realm of the Archer…stretching, seeking and aiming for that Luminous Target, the ever-reaching aspiration of your soul, the Heart of Truth, the Truth that is your Heart.

Mars is your Avatar of Desire, your self-propelling insistence to go beyond, to grow and become more than what you have become so far. You are not so much a human being; you are the Self that is Becoming, (as is the entirety of Creation, for each and every speck and mote, and Cosmic Wonder too, all of it is of Spirit, all are ones of the Light Divine). At the core of you, in your precious luminous center there is the Spark of Divinity. You are Spirit, a luminous being who is seeking to become, and your one impelling purpose that surges from this Divinity is to Grow.

There is no beginning that you will understand, and there is certainly no end to what you will be or become…the only thing to know is this: you must, you can, you will rise higher and higher, go farther and deeper than you can ever imagine now. Your lives stretch back beyond all knowing, and your luminous path stretches out ahead into the infinity that is Space.

Mars is coming now, out from the Waters of Scorpio, where you crossed the divide between I and Thou. It is here where you encountered the mystery of mysteries, here is what you faced and felt: that the great Illusion of your present form is Separation. The Great Longing and Truth you feel in your heart, is that all are of One Spirit. That this is "the Way", and so everything and everyone of you will seek to be reunited, to be made whole again. You seek to be one again, as you already are in your heart of hearts, by being made as one again by, through and with one another in your Unions.

You faced your fears of Rejection and Loss, you saw through the Illusion of this division into these many bodies and forms. For your Higher Self brings you through life after life to an ever increasing awareness and experience of your oneness with all of Creation. You, by the passion that is Scorpio, came a little closer to one another, you experienced the one Energy behind all forms, and you crossed the boundaries that seemingly separate you, and you felt the truth in this experience in your Love for one another.

Having plumbed the depths of this Truth, having felt the wonder of oneness even for the briefest while, you have a need, you aspire now to lift yourself and this experience up into a greater realm of Consciousness. From out of the world of your innermost Feelings you seek to ride the streams of Spirit that swirl and leap into the Inspirations that spring from Fire. You aspire now to take what was personally moving and see through to the eternal truths that stand behind what was felt within. You wish to dip into the Wells of Wisdom and soothe your soul with calm and lucid Understanding.

For understand this, many, many have come along this path before you, and though you must do the work and walk this path too, they have left their Ways of Meaning for you. They are like breadcrumbs and whispers that intimate the Wonder that is this Cosmos, and their offerings can help you to find your way as you consider the Eternal Forces and Forms that stand behind the mere appearances of your present day Reality.

You must seek to bind what was felt within to what you will discover and learn by Seeking and Searching through many Teachers and Teachings. You will strive and discern through the Sciences, Philosophies and Religions that there is but one River of Truth, that flows around you but also rises from within you too. For As Above, so Below, as Within, so Without…there is no difference. All are held as one by One, all are one in Spirit. So the Truth that flows from your heart will ultimately be met with the Truths that are lovingly passed down from your Elders too…

And from this you will find your Peace, you will know that though there are many, many paths, and that there are many, many melodies…you will know and accept that there is but One Song of Spirit. There is but one Truth behind all truths, and that is the Truth that binds all to one, and the One to one and all…and you will smile for you know it is so, you will know that it is Love.

Mars has been in Scorpio since July 25^th, and now he moves upon the pathway of Sagittarius, building and forming up into the one of the signature alignments of 2014, the Grand Trine of Fire which will be most exact at the Aries Full Moon on October 8^th.

May the Fires of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius light your way…

May you be Mindfully Present,

May you be Lovingly Respectful,

And may you Live the Truth of your Heart,

Love one another. 

Full Moon in Pisces (September 8, 2014)

You walk the path of awakening…

You yearn to find your peace within,

And so thereby to have it surround you too.

You search for the meaning of life.

You look and long for understanding, and

One day you will know, you will realize, that

The Answers were always there, for they are in fact,

Within you as much as they surround you too.

Look up at your elder brothers and sisters, the Planets, Stars and wonders above.

Their wheeling motions in the spaces of Space,

Regale and Inspire you with these ancient Songs of Life and Spirit.

They weave their Webs of Destiny and Truth,

Which also forms your Robe of Glory too.

You are here to learn, you are here to grow…

And you will understand,

For that is your Destiny too.

You are to become outwardly what you are in your inmost.

You are a Hierarchy of Energy-Forms,

From barely conscious, sleeping Particles of Dust,

On up to your Radiant Center of Illumined Light and Love.

And your whole journey is this lifting up of all your various bodies,

Into ever higher, sweeter and most sublime Realms.

You are here to be Full-Filled, to come into your place of Peace,

By, through and with this Resplendent Truth and Light and Love.

Another Full Moon will Light your way tonight. Another Gift of Spirit will arch across the heaven’s above. Your Daykeeper and Nightwatcher will greet one another once more. As the Sun sets the Moon will rise, and they will once again point the way towards the one true Path, the Integral Path that is the Way of Spirit.

As the Sun holds now and shines by the Truth that is Virgo, the Moon will answer with her reflective light and provide what is most necessary as a Balance and Counterpoint by the Truth that is of Pisces. For this is the way of it. There is no one path or way, there is no one truth which can stand alone and apart, (except in that all these ways and truths are held in the Truth that there is but One Spirit)...for there is the One, the Divine within which all live and grow, and all are held together by one Truth-Force, Love.

All the melodies and themes of spirit depend upon one another for their fullness and meaningfulness. They cannot be separated, for it is this Greater Truth that there is but One Spirit, which will appear to you in countless facets and forms of manifestation. Each theme or melody is true, but you will find its greater meaning is only discerned in the light of this contrast and balance as exemplified in moments such as the Full Moon.

The Truth of Virgo is there to hold you to the path of Critical Discernment. It is by this Gift that you are to constantly seek for your own self-improvement and growth. By using your ever-growing awareness, you are able to free yourself from your ancient patterns of self-realization that have outlived their efficacy and now stand as your self-limitations instead. You rise into more meaningful understandings and forms of expressions, which in turn can only take you so far. When you reach a certain level of discomfort, or pain or suffering…you turn, you seek to understand and accept, and you let go and grow…again.

But Integral to this process of Self-Transcendence is the opposite Gift of Spirit found in the Realm of Pisces. For it is in Pisces that you experience the Grace of Faith, it is here in Pisces that you encounter your true source of Self-overcoming and Self-Transcendence. You are a Dreamer, you are an Imagineer, and what you Believe you will become. The Truth of Virgo, that you have the Sensibility and Intelligence to discern what is and what is not, what works and what does not. The greater truth is that this gift of Virgo is made possible and real by the Inspirations of Pisces which fill your heart and soul with the Shining Light of Love that is behind the whole of this Creation. You need Virgo to know How to do what you do; you need Pisces and your Imagination to Light your way of Dreaming beyond what is, and so become what you are yet to be.

Stand tonight in the Middle, 

Take the Noble Path of Integration...

Watch your star as it sets, watch your moon rise.

Hold them both together, embrace Virgo and Pisces.

You are the Seeker, you are the Dreamer.

You are here to Learn, to Grow…

To Dream,

To Believe,

To Love and be Loved.
