Happy New Moon in Virgo conjunct Saturn!
How awesome is this??? The chipper, witty, chic & plucky vibe of our Virgo aligned with super-Saturn. This is so not a Zen Sloth weekend. Brilliant for making zesty Virg0-style resolutions & zooming forward in (organised) style post-Pluto Direct, Saturn Opposite Uranus and all that. Amazing for health jagging, admin & transformative details magic.
The Ankh, Ancient Egyptian symbol of eternal life, deathless love, enduring beauty and talisman of Isis…I found this amazing magical talisman shop whilst looking for information about something totally un-linked, as you do. But i adore ankhs. They are said to be enormously luck-bringing and beautiful symbolism of course.
And how awesome are these Ankh embroidered black jeans from the House of Balmain? Not much over $10,0oo I gather. Annoyingly pricie – i think EVERYONE should have an Ankh embroidered item of clothing.
I so want this thing too – a Hemetite Ankh pendant from Qi Power...it apparently zaps up your Qi, is grounding and even helps one’s martial arts! Perfect for powering on with Pluto Direct and post that dratted Saturn-Uranus Opposition situation.
As the Moon in Gemini squares Uranus in Pisces, peeps zig where you thought they were going to zag & there’s an electric buzz in the vibe. Fab for conversation, concocting new ideas and all but discretion ought to be applied. Moon-Uranus stirs & in mutable signs it’s like amorality central, Mercury IS retrograde, Pluto stationing Direct is emo and Saturn opposing Uranus is practically upon us. You’d hate to go bats & then feel all goobly on Monday morn, to the extent that you went guilt-tripping.
The pic above is a modern take on an old world war II poster, urging discretion for obvious reasons; this one below is a real one from the era.
This feels kind of retro to me (then again, Mercury IS Retro) but lately a lot of peeps i talk to are mentioning this book. I thought it was way old & sort of obvious but maybe it’s either (a) a new book and i am just outta touch with self-enrichment lit as I all i currently read in that vein are my Wolves book & the Qi guide. BUT this Emo Vampire thing is being raved about. Is it feeling super-relevant because of Pluto stationing Direct and Saturn/Uranus new era stuff??? As people consciously try to sift through various aspects of their lives a la the shitfight between Saturn & Uranus?
Years ago i used to be a LOT more vulnerable to the variety of person described in this book. These days i am way more ruthless & tend to go on a gut vibe. I think this ability to throw up effective shields et al definitely improves after Saturn Return. It’s those Saturn Girl ’set and forget’ boundaries again.
Here we go again with the Saturn-Uranus Opposition dudes. Do NOT forget that the Saturn-Uranus opposition tends to warp time. This will be MOST apparent with Pluto stationing Direct & Mercury Retrograde.
Saturn IS the god of time – his Greek name is Chronos – and Uranus is sort of quantum loop future quadri dimensional time-is-a-numerical-construct-ish.
So there is a battle between the Saturnine punctuality/deadlines consciousness and the Uranian timewarping.
Revise your scheduling systems or simplify where you can. Seriously be rad when it comes ruthless simplification. Expect weird flashes of nostalgia, power-rage surges. Keep it productive. Do the old Saturn Law: 8 hours of sleep, 8 hours of work, 8 glasses of water a day. Sort your clocks or whatever it is you keep time with.
My new Eco-Ghoul light bulbs are So giving me the shits that i am seriously wondering if my Taurus Hippy Uncle was right and we SHOULD ALL BE up with the dawn and asleep by dusk.
PLUTO IS STATIONING DIRECT! AND TURNING DIRECT AT THE SAME POINT IT/HE WAS AT IN FEB 2008…SO EXPECT TO GROK SOME SORT OF SUBTLE OMEN RE CHANGES THAT BEGAN THEN OR A FLASHPOINT RE SUCH…
“If you are feeling unstable, freaked out or extra nuts, Pluto is probably acting on you. If you are also feeling excited, passionate or like change is imminent and that is beautiful, then you are probably acting on it. As Steve Forrest says of Pluto in his excellent work, The Book of Pluto, we can take the high or low roads, and both are usually available. It is possible to seize new energy and new opportunities, or be reduced to bitterness and a sense of failure by refusing to embrace the moment. “The high road is always there, but will we travel it?”
“How can we live kindly and gracefully while sitting on the hormonal powder keg?” he asks. “It boils down to one fundamental theme: truthfulness beats goodness. Wholeness in oneself is a greater virtue, and a more stable one, than all the conventional expressions of saintliness rolled up into one glorious greeting card.”
Eric Francis, also quoting Steve Forrest, on Pluto transits. This is one of my all-time fave succinct Pluto rants.
HOW to tell if you are having a Pluto transit?
You will be suffused with yearning etc & a new sensation of being ‘alive’ yet also mentally tormented and stressed by coping with all the changes in your life…many astrologers liken a Pluto transit to being ‘cooked’ so that the flavours emerge.
BUT IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO, AS PLUTO STATIONS, EVERYONE FEELS IT – SOME MORE THAN OTHERS, RAVENS COMING HOME TO ROOST & ALL…
Great, huh?
You will basically go insane but everyone will keep telling you how great you look.
If you think you might be having a Pluto transit, keep going (!) and maybe consult an astrologer.
Or think about purchasing Plutonic- your Pluto scopes until 2024
Ready or not, Pluto is stationing Direct & over the next few days, even the most minute of bickerings or realisations reminds you that you are in a new era now. Any unfinished biz from the past emerges – either for real or in your psyche – so it would be Pluto-prudent to try to fix that a.s.a.p. and sans fuss…especially toxic ex-merde.
As always, artemesia vulgaris (the amazing mugwort) is your friend, should you be trying to housewitch or lucid dream your way out of this. And – yes – Pluto Juice…the incredible Bach Flower Walnut Essence.
Merry Full Moon for in just-a-few hours guys! Realisations all OVER the shop here, mostly about balancing out that pesky Saturn-Uranus opposition that the Full Moon scenario (Sun in Virgo opposes Moon in Pisces = Full Moon) is but an echo of.
And – I always like to come with some cool asteroid stuff on Friday evening, if I can – EROS is conjunct the Full Moon. Yes. I have not been keeping this from you on purpose – i only just thought of it. Asteroids are often a weekend fancy with me. So Eros conjunct the Full Moon means a little bit of something seductive stirring EVEN AS you so suavely work with the Pluto Direct emo/new era realisations and Saturn-Uranian balance.
And speaking of Saturn-Uranus, most of the mini-queries have been sent but a FEW are lingering, by tomorrow night Sydney time I totally promise.
“Although Barrymore will strive to convince you that she’s as simple as a daisy, she is, in fact, a bouquet of contradictions. She swears like a drill sergeant , yet her highest words of praise have to do with ‘purity’ and ‘joy’. She adopts the carefree persona of a party girl but pushes herself like a hard-charging C.E.O. “ John Powers
This is inadvertently one of the best descriptions of Pisces I’ve read! Drew Barrymore is a multiple conjunct Pisces: Sun, Psyche, Pallas, Lilith, Jupiter and Venus all in Pisces.
Another Quote…from her: “I’m a Yin-and-Yang Piscean, I’m an oxymoron of a dichotomy of a double-sided being.”
And the Moon is building to be FULL in Pisces – with Saturn opposing & Pluto going Direct. Now you get to see how your hard evolutionary work of the last few months is coming along…Dream realisation or a swift little reality check?
Guess what??? Those primal throbbings ain’t just Pluto in slo-mo, stationing Direct. Nor Saturn revving up to oppose Uranus again. Dark Moon Lilith is conjunct the North Node in Capricorn. Let’s just say Lilith is the Bitch Goddess & that she is a Good Thing. Archaic feminine power and all that. And so we have Dark Moon Lilith conjunct (very powerful) the North Node (manifest destiny) and in the mega-pragmatic sign of Capricorn at 27 to 29 degrees of Capricorn.
So who has been vowing to be (productively) more of a bitch lately? Especially where it pertains to clearing out the crappy old residue from being too nice, sentimental and goo-goo. Like Saturn Girl, Lilith in Capricorn hasn’t much time for L.O.A. style thinking – she’s set & forget when it comes to boundaries/standards et al. But with the North Node involvement, the boundaries are more like borders between two different eras.
The Saturn-Uranus opposition links in nicely as well – Saturn in Virgo is trining Lilith & Uranus sextile. So it’s like harnessing the power of Saturn/Lilith to achieve Uranian ends, if you like. Ditto the North Node ends as being our “ideal” future. And being enough of a bitch to jettison those elements of the past that don’t work or not wanting to go back to a place you CAN’T revisit…and why would you want to???
And, btw, this is so beautiful and such a lovely omen: if you look up in the sky at night right now, you can see the nearly Full Moon very close to Jupiter, the Greater Benefic and official auspicious planet. Fab for Aquarians! Have a look and make a wish.
