TRANSFORMATION, CHANGE, REBIRTH AND HEALING - OR VENGEANCE, CRUELTY, DESTRUCTION AND RUIN ???

  

The SUN began its transit through the determined, aggressive, shrewd, secretive sign of Scorpio yesterday, 10/23, at 12:51 AM EDT ... we are now being directed to turn inward to face truths about ourselves and what lies beneath  - "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH" - OR CAN YOU ??? ... this energy can be extremely driven but also highly transforming ... being a water sign, you can bet the emotions will become a constant determining ingredient in many of our actions now as opposed to the mental approach of the air sign of Libra ... this energy needs to shine passionately, through its power and resourcefulness, through seeking recognition for its penetration, and maybe through being in the limelight through a compulsive persistence !!!




Scorpio is rarely passive or neutral about anything ... jealousy, being resentful and vengeance are often expressed through this deep, quite private and reserved energy ... recuperative powers are quite remarkable ... here we have the energy of the truth-seeker who uses keen judgment coupled with penetrating insight which ultimately may empower one to exercise a great deal of authority over others ... science, medicine or any field of investigation could attract one ... willpower and persistence are key factors, and even though one may become rather reticent, when pushed one becomes very outspoken and extremely direct ... Scorpio may forgive but it NEVER forgets !!!



Scorpio is a feminine/fixed/water sign ... it is the 8th sign of the natural zodiac ... its key phrase is "I Desire" and its keyword is "Intensity" ... Scorpio is the sign directly opposite to Taurus in the natural zodiac ... anatomically it rules the genitals - Scorpio born are often susceptible to infections of the urinary system and venereal disease ... in addition the inclination towards volatile emotions is the cause of exhaustion and ill health !!!



Scorpio is the natural ruler of the 8th house whose keyword is "regeneration" ... it is a house of endings ... many things are addressed here such as joint finances, legacies, trusts, wills, taxes, insurance matters, secrets, sex, spiritual and physical regeneration, psychological rebirth, degeneration and death and surgery ... it also shows types of illness !!!



Scorpio is ruled by Pluto - a planet representing destroying or reforming urges and fusion ... its keyword is "transformation" ... it governs things which are hidden from view as well as the masses, subversion, crime, phobias, obsessions, slow growth, birth and death, isolation, coercion, disappearance, bacteria and viruses, plumbing and unpopular causes ... its action is slow and inevitable ... if you've had your natal chart run, where you find Pluto is where you'll find complexity and where you'll have to solve problems on your own and without assistance ... many astrologers would also say that Scorpio is co-ruled by Mars which is considered its ancient ruler as Pluto wasn't discovered until 1930 by Percival Lowell !!!



The Sun is in Scorpio is trying to make us aware of how to live our daily lives productively through pursuing what it is we truly desire ... it is the urge to merge with someone or something else ... it is considered the most powerful sign of the zodiac ... it can usually sense what is going on beneath the surface of most situations ... this ability can make one prone to influence, manipulate, corrupt, purge, harm or heal ... this energy is unchallenged in the ability to bring to the surface the cause of trouble - whether it is heartache, disease, financial problems, etc. ... there is a great understanding as to what sex is for and about ... this energy can easily cause us to get under others skin .. there is also a great intimacy with life itself !!!



The power of Scorpio can appear as a truly magnetic charm making one totally disarming, or it can be downright cruel running over others and striking quite unexpectedly ... there is ability to raise something or someone from the depths or throw them down there ... there are deep and genuine emotions here that are often hidden from the surface ... the greatest gift comes when one is able to let go of the fear and hesitation and allow something or someone in - then there is a magical transformational effect which can lead to great healing !!!



Scorpio likes total involvement, rooting out hidden causes, being persuasive, meaningful work and the untarnished truth ... it dislikes superficial relationships, only scratching the surface, feeling as though someone got one over on them, demeaning tasks and flattering and flattery ... the energy of the Sun in Scorpio can be expressed in the following ways:


POSITIVE: intense, loyal, passionate, faith-inspiring, dynamic, regenerating, compelling, magnetic, penetrating insight, scrutinizing, shrewd, resourceful, compassionate, strong and deep, brave, powerful, healing touch, self-sacrificing, intimate


NEGATIVE: obsessive, possessive, fanatical, emotionally draining, coercive, degrading, forces allegiance, seductive, suspicious, cunning, revengeful, self-punishing, cruel, overly rigid view, corrupt, manipulative, jealous, resentful



The Sun is currently transiting through Scorpio all by itself  with Mars to join the "party" very shortly - a lot of energy requiring us to dig deep down and face personal truths that perhaps many of us would rather NOT do !!!



HAPPY SOLAR RETURN ALL SCORPIO BORN !!! ... the Sun remains in Scorpio until November 21st !!!



While the Sun transits the sign of Scorpio, be aware that power comes through YOU: hate, and power kills ... love, and power heals ... the greatest strength here is forgiving weakness ... if you look deeply enough into someone or something you may ultimately find yourself and discover your personal power ... then reaching the point where you are no longer after something, you may suddenly realize what it is you are truly after !!!



Over  the next 30 days we all have the universal power placed in our hands to produce transformation, change, rebirth and healing in our lives as well as others ... or will we sink to the level of vengeance, cruelty, destruction and ruin ???

IT'S OVER ... ALL OVER ... WELL FOR NOW ANYWAY !!!

  

MERCURY completed its third and final retrograde journey for 2021 today, October 18th, and stationed  back into direct motion at 11:17 AM EDT at 10 degrees 7 minutes of Libra - do I hear a BIG SIGH OF RELIEF out there ??? ... what revelations have you had or will have, either positive or challenging in regards to what you may have done while Mercury was revolving around those degrees - 7 degrees 10 minutes to 25 degrees 28 minutes Libra - forwards, then backwards and now forward again as it crosses back over them ... in which house or houses do these degrees fall in your natal chart giving you a clue as to what area of your life this retrograde may have affected ???



Hopefully, some of the disorientation, confusion, frustration and outright irritation along with the sudden and unexpected issues that may have been produced by this Mercury retrograde will now begin to clear and subside as it becomes time to move forward, cautiously for the time being, into the swing of things on all levels - especially since in the last twelve days Pluto, Saturn, Jupiter and now Mercury have stationed back into direct motion giving us a lot of energy and incentive to get "unstuck" and move forward on some level of our lives !!!





Did any issues and complications or questioning arise in regards to things done during the last retrograde period from May 29th through June 22nd ??? ... or maybe as far back as January 30th through February 20th ??? ... and it's a sure bet that as Mercury moves forward once again crossing back over the degrees it covered during this retrograde period, issues may begin to arise meaning things begun and actions taken are certainly subject to potential review and revision !!!




Mercury retrograde periods, even though annoying and extremely frustrating at times, are actually a very beneficial thing, especially for those who were strong and fearless enough to dig deep down, as we need to validate, or in some cases invalidate, actions and situations gone awry and deal with them in order to finally release them to produce a calmer, positive and more productive state of mind thus allowing us to move forward to bring about greater personal and spiritual growth !!! ... again, if you've had a natal chart done, you should look to see in which house or houses containing 25 DEGREES 28 MINUTES LIBRA back to 10 DEGREES 7 MINUTES LIBRA fall to determine what issues you may have had to deal with in the areas of life governed by those houses ??? ... how many of you went with the flow and how many of you tried to swim upstream in the raging current of Cosmic confusion ???



Of course the recurring question we may find ourselves asking now that Mercury is back in direct motion is "WHY" ??????? ...What actions did you take yourself or have taken against you that you or the other person may now be regretting ... or you may be simply wondering why you chose to do what you did or why you were the victim of a particular course of action from other(s), and why didn't you or the other person wait a little longer ...  or perhaps you are simply now trying to figure out why it even happened ???




Relationships may have come to an end - some needed to and others may have jumped the gun and you are now wondering, or will be, why did I do that or end things during this period ...  how many of you had relationship issues surface or resurface - extremely likely in a Mercury retrograde - that you thought surely had been resolved or didn't even realize existed ???  ... how many of you began new actions within a relationship, personal or professional without waiting for the retrograde period to conclude ??? ... AND ... how many of you got married ??? 




Did anyone make any major purchases - homes, cars, electronics - that now don't seem like the best thought out course of action or that you are beginning to regret or will do so in the days ahead especially with this retrograde period in the sign of Libra ruled by Venus which concerns monetary earning and spending as well as personal values ??? ... there could be problems regarding any purchases made especially with anything where electrical energy and/or computers were involved ... all of these scenarios are possible as the energy of a Mercury retrograde is one where communications and mental energy is going "backwards" and rational decision making isn't always so sharp !!!




So now that the mental processing facilities are no longer going backwards - at least for most of us - in regard to Mercury and its functions, it's time to finally RELEASE these emotional holds and allow ourselves to move forward with our lives ... let go of what is best left in the past so you can achieve greater personal and spiritual growth !!!



While retrograde in Libra, Mercury retrograde challenged us to mainly address our relationships and partnerships both public and private  ... and it wouldn't be out of the question that the need may have arisen to address personal values and our monetary situation with Venus ruling Taurus as well even though the retrograde was not in that sign !!! ... how many lost jobs or had significant salary cutbacks ??? ... and because Mercury rules communications, it shouldn't have come as a surprise that people seem to lose their manners and tact which is what usually occurs during a Venus retrograde !!!



Mercury retrograding in the sign of Libra also had the potential to bring into focus the areas of life ruled by Venus as well as 7th house matters and also the potential to pull in 2nd house matters as Venus naturally rules these two houses of the horoscope ... so issues could have arisen regarding art, culture, possessions, partners, beauty, charm, good taste, sweets and sugar, harmony, singing, drama, music, emotional contacts, tenderness, moral character, marriage and unions of all kinds, pleasure and appreciation - all things ruled by Venus !!!



There could have been issues in regards to financial affairs, possessions (excluding real estate), investments, earning power, gains or losses through your own efforts, inner talents and resources, your need for fulfillment, your emotional feelings, your sense of self-worth, sense of values, personal liberty and material debt - all matters represented by the 2nd house !!!



But there was the greatest potential for issues to arise regarding business and marital partnerships/relationships, marriage, divorce, contracts, lawsuits, agreements, dealings with the public, open enemies, cooperation or lack thereof with other people, addressing what you most lack in yourself,  grandparents, and any people who act as your agent or on your behalf - all matters represented by the 7th house which is the specific sign on the house Venus naturally rules where this Mercury retrograde took place !!!



In regards to overall health, remember Mercury is the natural planetary ruler of the 6th house which rules health and nutrition, among other things, so there could have been more potential to have health issues in general during this Mercury retrograde  ... while retrograde in Libra there could have been issues with the throat, chin, cheeks or sense of taste, areas ruled by Venus, and the kidneys which are ruled by Libra !!!



Gemini and Virgo born, yet another period of review and reflection for you has come to an end
especially in regards to actions taken since June 22nd when Mercury last stationed back into direct motion ... how have you been enlightened and how was your life affected by having your ruling planet Mercury retrograde ... your ruling planet now resumes forward motion and much to your delight so will you - even though you were probably trying to do it during the actual retrograde ... right, of course right .. in fact many of us were doing the same thing !!!



Mercury now moves forward to conclude its full transit through Libra which began back on August 30th and will end on November 5th ... Mercury will exit its retrograde zone on November 2nd when it returns to 25 degrees 28 minutes Libra the point where it began this retrograde period !!!


Just a reminder of what the energy of Mercury in Libra is all about should you need a "refresher" :  


"Harsh words and intimidating comments are seldom or very hesitatingly spoken while Mercury moves through this sign - after all, Libra is ruled by Venus which tends to soften and sweeten things while adding charm ... in many ways this can be considered as the cosmic energy expressing the "language" of love !!!




Mercury in Libra produces a mindset that is usually concerned with human relations and psychology and produces a mindset towards balance where both sides of the issue are considered ... it gives an intense curiosity about the thinking and behavior patterns of others - it is very focused on one particular aspect of the mental and emotional plane and that is one-to-one relationships ... good communications and happiness in relationships are essential here ... there is a strong sense of justice which tends to make one very honest in their communications ... communications are generally made in a diplomatic, elegant and balanced manner ... feedback from others is a must in order to clarify your opinions ... mentally striving to support your heartfelt principles is often what inspires others with this energy !!!



Mercury in Libra likes to consider all sides of an issue before making a final decision - the trap here is that Mercury, finding it difficult to explore any single idea without devoting equal time and energy to the opposite viewpoint and thus becoming distracted by too many facts, may yield indecisiveness which results in the inability to act on an issue thus getting lost ... Mercury in Libra also gives an interest to the law and the arts ... it bestows one with charm and diplomacy and gives the ability to communicate adeptly, elegantly, impartially and tactfully ... this energy produces natural born mediators and one who has truly mastered the art of whispering sweet nothings into your ear !!!



Mercury in Libra teaches us to think and communicate through relating to others, and underlying much of this thinking is a desire for agreement ... it likes an honest reputation, refined minds, good manners, moral justice and likes to learn through interaction with others ... it does not like being underestimated, having no one to talk with, and mob mentality ... as always there are two different kinds of uses with any energy ... as for Mercury in Libra they are:


POSITIVE: agreeable, flexible, diplomatic, prudent, persuasive, charming, well-spoken, communicative, hardworking, disciplined, scholarly, orderly, eclectic, fair judge, good arbitrator, reasonable, team-spirited, principled, honorable, open-minded ...


NEGATIVE: weak-minded, non-committal, turncoat, smooth-talking, insincere, affected, rat-racer, blindly obedient, unoriginal, indecisive, cowardly, phony, boring, illogical, easily swayed, overly sensitive, flighty, superficial ...



With this current mercurial energy, for all of us this becomes a period of time when we have the ability to learn to speak more graciously and gently through our communications ... and to that end the Universe encourages each one of us to realize -



THE KEY TO MANIFESTING POSITIVE PERSONAL AND SPIRITUAL GROWTH IN LIFE IS TO SPEAK KINDLY AND THINK GOOD THOUGHTS !!!"



Mercury remains in direct motion until January 14th, 2022 when it takes its first retrograde journey for 2022 lasting until February 4th  which will embed it in the final 16 days of the upcoming Venus retrograde ... this will be a dual sign retrograde ... it will go from 10 DEGREES 20 MINUTES AQUARIUS back to 24 DEGREES 23 MINUTES CAPRICORN for those of you who like to plan ahead and see what area of your life it has the potential to bring issues to by which house or houses these degrees fall in ... and yes that means some of us Capricorn as well as Aquarian born will get BOTH Mercury and Venus retrograde in their solar return chart for the year ahead - and that includes yours truly ... Mercury enters its next shadow point on December 29th when it reaches 24 degrees 23 minutes Capricorn !!!



For now, move forward and try to enjoy as we enter what is often referred to as the "most wonderful time of the year", which may end up being very challenging this year given everything that is still going on particularly due to the pandemic and the fact that Venus will take its next retrograde journey beginning December 19th ... find ways to be grateful and thankful for all that you are blessed with even though there may be some difficult challenges occurring as well ... the Universe never lets us have anything "perfect" because we are supposed to be in a constant state of enlightenment and illumination promoting personal and spiritual growth !!!

MOVING FORWARD ONCE AGAIN - ON MORE SECURE STRUCTURES AND STRONGER FOUNDATIONS ???


SATURN - the planet representing authority figures, discipline, effort, sense of order, limitation, the urge for safety and security, tests us by placing obstacles and restrictions in our lives, shows what we are unsure of or truly fear, known as FATHER TIME, and most notoriously known for being the celestial taskmaster teaching us the lessons we must learn in life - stationed back into direct motion on Sunday, October 10th, at 10:17 PM EDT ... these lessons we MUST learn through the obstacles we often encounter sometimes are easier but more frequently become extremely challenging and difficult on our journey through this life in order to make us slow down so we can build strong foundations and structures in our lives that are on solid ground !!!


While Saturn has been in retrograde motion since May 23rd of this year, hopefully we have all been reviewing and trying to restructure systems, programs, organizations, corporations and rules that will allow them to function more efficiently ... we also were given the time and opportunity, if we used it wisely, to become more aware of our own personal authority and power and determine whether or not it fits within society or is actually undermining us and needs adjustment on some level ... in addition, we all should have been reviewing whether or not societies rules and policies are helping to give us needed structure or instead limiting us in some way thus preventing further personal and spiritual growth !!!


Now that Saturn has resumed direct motion, we should begin to be better able to see where we stand and thus continue building even more secure structures and foundations in our lives individually and as a society as well ... no doubt we may have encountered limitations and restrictions either self imposed or imposed on us by the Universe and/or authority figures during this retrograde period ... and perhaps now the Universe will even throw in yet another road block or two our way to make us realize whether or not we made good use of this retrograde period !!!


This Saturn retrograde period, which began back on May 23rd, occurred from 13 degrees 31 minutes back to 6 degrees 52 minutes Aquarius ... if you know in your natal chart in which house or houses these degrees fall, then you may understand where in your life this Saturn retrograde was making its impact - especially if it made any aspects to one of your natal planets or angles those being the cusps of the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th houses ... Saturn has been at the 6 degree mark of Aquarius since the end of September, and will not leave the 6 degree mark until approximately October 23rd, yielding the potential for this to have been a challenging period for many people especially related to the area of life ruled by which house 6 degrees Aquarius falls in !!!


My fellow Capricorns, this was our yearly period of review, self-introspection and rethinking of what has transpired in our lives especially from September 29th, 2020 until May 23rd of this year - that being the period when Saturn was in forward motion !!!


Saturn is currently transiting through the sign of Aquarius which it began back on March 21st, 2020 ... Saturn in Aquarius is all about combining traditional values with new age related insights and ideas ... it's a placement that yields the potential for a well organized mental concentration ... here the concern for impartial truth is highly pursued ... it also has the potential to give a sense of justice and responsibility in relationships ... it gives a heightened ability to visualize form and structure and can yield great mathematical ability ... and as Saturn is considered to be in a "partnership" with Uranus, planetary ruler of Aquarius, there is great potential to bring structure and order to the immense desire for freedom as well as to the chaos that can often ensue from the often disruptive energy Uranus creates !!!


Usually people are not very happy when Saturn comes into the picture - even though it is always there one way or the other - to teach us and make us learn life lessons that are often very daunting and difficult, but we native Capricorn born understand how hard Saturn's "weight" can bear down on us ... after all, it is considered to be the Celestial Taskmaster !!! ... so its retrograde journey each year becomes an opportunity for everyone else to feel and hopefully come to understand what we have to live with all of our life ... challenging - you bet !!! ... and no one would ever say it was an easy task, but the potential for rewards are unlimited if you open your eyes, ears and hearts, allow the Universe to lead the way and be willing to go the distance ... after all, if you don't learn the lesson the first time, you can be sure the Universe will bring the lessons back around again, and the next time they may end up being even more difficult to deal with in your life !!!


As Saturn is most frequently teaching all of us very difficult lessons, some more so than others,  holding firm and staying positive will get us through this making us stronger and better able to deal with life and its many challenges ... so if you can keep your feet firmly planted and try to understand that the "light at the end of the tunnel" usually signifies greater personal as well as spiritual growth, you will definitely come through not only a much stronger and focused person but also able to handle this journey through life more efficiently for the lessons you have taken seriously and made great personal effort to learn from ... you will surely be better equipped to deal with life and its many constant challenges not just from Saturn's energy !!!


Time for me to once again reiterate a worthwhile observation of mine ... as a Capricorn born who will be ruled lifelong by Saturn, I can say that from personal experience the transits of Saturn aren't always a bad thing that should be dreaded ... while its actions can be difficult and challenging, Saturn's main objective is to help us grow and become a better, more highly functional and successful person by finding the courage deep from within to take a serious and honest look at where we are versus where we should be going ... as I have heard it said many times, better to be right than right now !!! ... ultimately this is done by making sure our foundations in life are always, strong, solid and secure !!!


Saturn remains in direct motion until June 4th, 2022 and in Aquarius until March 7th, 2023 !!!

DISCOVERING THE INEXHAUSTIBLE BOUNTY OF LOVE !!!

 

Venus began its transit through the enthusiastic, broad-minded sign of Sagittarius today, October 7th at 7:21 AM EDT ... this Venus is all about the adventure and excitement that love can bring, and therefore ends up being a love that doesn't always last especially being in a fire sign where the flames of passion and love can burn out fast especially when something or someone else perceived as better comes along ... but friendships have longevity and they are usually numerous ... Venus was last in Sagittarius from December 15th, 2020 through January 8th, 2021 ... Venus in Sagittarius produces a much lighter, happier and less intense version of the pursuit of love than Scorpio !!!




Venus in Sagittarius energy enjoys travel, philosophy, education, and anything which will broaden ones horizons and perspective on life ... it is friendly, expansive and philanthropic towards people ... affection is expressed generously, grandly, extravagantly unless one becomes disillusioned when their ideals are denied ... in fact, this Venus can give so much that it forgets it deserves to receive as well ... honesty is valued and one can be quite broad minded in terms of love ... pleasure is found through ideals and ideas !!!



It may be difficult getting settled down into one relationship because there is the enjoyment of exploration and adventure along with the constant seeking of the ideal relationship ... comfort and harmony here requires the freedom to roam, explore, and always be able to look for something better ... NEVER try to tie down or fence this Venus in or it's over in the blink of an eye !!! ... the handling of money and possessions is usually optimistic and often can lead one to getting overextended ... this Venus wants "THE BEST" in its love relationships ... both partners must agree on goals, values and their world view ... philosophical harmony is absolutely essential ... being direct and honest is required ... there is also an increased benefit through foreign travel, people and their cultures ...this Venus energy can be extremely flirtatious !!!



Venus in Sagittarius teaches us how we love through what it is we are seeking ... it's the joy of love - here we find an awareness of the inexhaustible bounty of love ... one understands that there cannot be the good times without the bad, and through thick and thin faith in love and spiritual quests is never lost ... the unbounded and expansive sense of love and pleasure can inspire and warm ones heart ... along with the awareness of the infinite supply of Love, it is important to give something of value to others !!!



Venus in Sagittarius is also concerned with the bonding of physical and spiritual love ... it is important here to learn from actual experience rather than from a book ... ultimately a set of beliefs and principles will dictate that ones manner of loving and relating is essential to ones happiness ... this Venus likes quick emotional responses, honest and upfront relating, playing around and philanthropy ... it dislikes holding back, leaving things unsaid, restraint and inactivity and flattery and phony facades ... the energy of Venus in Sagittarius can be expressed in the following ways :



POSITIVE: romantic imagination, light-hearted, warm and affectionate, generous, guided by particular standards, benevolence and loyalty, idealistic, demonstrative, non-possessive, emotionally frank, honest with ones lover, broad-minded, socially active, vivacious, popular, friendly


NEGATIVE: easily attracted, impressionable, overly flirtatious, broken promises, forces beliefs on ones partner, unable to face emotional truth, hard to please, escapist, scatters emotions, fickle, brutally and offensively tactless, impersonally affectionate, amoral, name-dropper, promiscuous, a "groupie", squanders affections



Sagittarius born, the "love light " is shining on you for the next few weeks ... in fact Sagittarius Rising and Moon born will benefit as well !!! ... you just might get what you "desire" so go for it !!!  



Venus is currently the only planet in transit through Sagittarius ... Venus remains in Sagittarius until November 5th !!!


HEADS UP !!! ... this is the last full sign transit of Venus before it begins its next retrograde journey ... Venus will enter the sign of Capricorn on November 5th but get no further than 26 degrees 39 minutes Capricorn when it begins its retrograde journey for 2021/2022 on December 19th ... this next retrograde of Venus will occur completely in the sign of Capricorn going from 26 degrees 39 minutes back to 11 degrees 4 minutes Capricorn ... it will take place from December 19th through January 29th, 2022 ... that means ALL of my fellow Capricorns will get this retrograde energy in their upcoming solar return for the year ahead along with some Sagittarius and some Aquarius born ... Venus enters its next shadow point when it reaches 11 degrees 4 minutes Capricorn on November 17th !!!



As Venus transits Sagittarius, it is important to remember to set a higher value on yourself which ultimately may lead to others appreciating you more ... you will be truly loved for expressing how you genuinely feel about yourself ... identify your ideals and needs and seek to express them ... understand that love grows through its own trials !!! ... and due to its nature of being extremely frank and direct in communicating feelings under this expansive energy, it might be best to heed the sage advice to take precaution and remember -


"LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS" !!!

UPHEAVAL AND TRANSFORMATION - WHAT WILL COME TO SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY THAT HAD BEEN BURIED SO DEEP WITHIN ???

PLUTO - planet, dwarf planet, etc., take your pick  - associated with death, rebirth, transformation, change, upheaval, healing and renewal - completed its retrograde journey for 2021 today, October 6th, at 2:29 PM EDT ... Pluto has been in retrograde motion since April 27th going from 26 degrees 48 minutes Capricorn back down to 24 degrees 18 minutes Capricorn and there undoubtedly has been a lot of reexamination on many levels of changes both we as individuals and as a society have been involved in !!!




Now that Pluto is stationing back into direct motion, things could start to surface that we may have been seeking information about ... secrets will surely begin to be exposed and those involved will most likely be brought into public awareness even if they did not want their questionable actions to see the light of day!!! ... during the retrograde period we have all been trying to understand how we individually impact the Earth and other people as well ... Pluto is getting even closer to completing its transit through the sign of Capricorn ... there are definitely going to continue to be issues arising concerning big business, the economy and governmental policy changes that affect everyone - especially as we are still being influenced by COVID-19 !!!




Pluto tends to expose the "dark side" of things and bring it into the light even when it is not what some would like ... we are  currently witnessing what could be referred to as the shakedown of governmental lawbreakers as well as intense scrutiny of the very process of the way the government is functioning - or not !!! ... also people are empowering themselves to make authority serve the true needs of all people and the planet as well !!!




There are two groups of people that are most likely feeling the effects of this powerful shift even though we all will on some level in our lives ... Scorpio born individuals, this is your ruling planet so now it's time to come out of your period of review and reflection which began around April 27th and start implementing changes or be prepared for change and transformation !!!



My fellow Capricorn individuals, we are going through massive personal change, upheaval, transformation and even healing and "rebirth" as this energy is making an added impact for us since Pluto is moving through our birth sign, the transit actually beginning in January of 2008, and will not complete its transit through our sign until 2024 due to its lengthy retrograde journeys and slow movement - after all it takes about 248 years to complete one journey around the zodiac !!!



In fact during this transit my fellow Capricorns, Pluto has either crossed over or will be crossing over, or be conjunct as we refer to it, at some point your natal Capricorn Sun placement at birth with the potential to bring vast sweeping changes to your life ... and it is very important that you do something NOW during this transit in order to move forward productively on your path in life ... the changes may be difficult and challenging but should not be feared as they are necessary and will bring about the birth of something new in your life that will be beautiful and remarkable !!!



For those of you who have had a natal chart done and know in which house 24 degrees 18 minutes Capricorn falls, you most likely will feel some kind of power shift or impact in that area of your life from Pluto stationing back into direct motion ... in fact, it's intensity has really been building since roughly August 17th when Pluto reentered the 24 degree area where it would eventually station direct !!!



Pluto remains in direct motion until April 29th, 2022 when it begins its next retrograde journey at 28 degrees 35 minutes Capricorn !!!



We all should now be prepared for an outward upheaval, tearing down, death - not necessarily always physical, rebirth, transformation, change and even the potential for deep healing somewhere in our lives and/or within society - understanding not only that this process is absolutely necessary for personal as well as spiritual growth, but more importantly we should always be prepared to expect the  unexpected !!!



And now that Pluto has completed its retrograde journey for 2021 and begins its forward motion, things may truly once again, if they haven't already, begin to SHAKE ... RATTLE ... AND ROLL !!!
