Greetings, New Paradigmers!
 

I hope you are doing well in all the most important ways. With all the planets direct, I doubt there are many dull moments! Life is full steam ahead, or “pedal to the metal,” which can be exciting and nerve-racking depending on how emotionally invested we are in maintaining our current reality. Some will be happy to move on, and others more reticent.

Regardless of our personal situation, the planetary alignments of this week will still be carrying on the theme of standing in integrity for our truth and summoning up the courage to speak it. Venus will be squaring Chiron and the Moon’s nodes all next week, requesting that we bring a sense of commitment and discipline and even see it as our duty to not only stand up for ourselves but for truth, morality, our loved ones, and future generations.

In order to do so, we need to recognize, honor, and heal our wounds around not being heard, respected, or given what we have wanted in the past, either in this life or in others. Given the patriarchal history of our planet, we have all had to conform to some pretty nasty standards in the past to survive or “succeed.” These days, we are called to stop compromising ourselves, break free, and express our unique perspectives, beliefs, ideas, and visions for the future. Faith, hope, and trust in our connection to the divine can give us the guts/fuel to do it.

A challenge that can come this week is to determine exactly when you are “right” and need to stand your ground versus when you are challenged and being asked to change your position and might be “wrong.” This is where the Chiron/north node conjunction can really come into play and help us. FEEL IT IN YOUR BODY. YOUR BODY KNOWS what is right for you and is your best teacher. Healing the wound of Aries is to trust our instincts, even when they may not make sense or we may not be able to find the right words to express them “correctly.” Trust that you are in the flow and paddle!

As reality is more than I have been told,

I need to reach far and wide,

For answers to questions disturbing my soul,

So I can get on with my life.

🏕️ We have one last-minute spot available for our Patagonia adventure!! Is it gonna be YOU?!

Wow, there is so much to say just about Mercury conjunct Pluto! But the fact that it is happening right as Pluto enters Aquarius at zero degrees makes it even that much more interesting. Couple that with the 3/4 square Moon, and you have a definite message from the stars that it is time to break out of old thought patterns, liberate ourselves from binding conventional norms, and dare to break out into new territory spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Let’s not forget the connection of Pluto to deep, often buried, emotions that will either rise of their own accord this week or be triggered by new outside information. As we are now dealing with Aquarius, we are looking at interactions, breakdowns, breakups, new friends, associates, business partnerships, social media interactions, MSM world news and events, and governmental, institutional, banking, corporate, and economic changes. In other words, let’s be ready for just about anything to happen!

Now, rather than go down the rabbit hole of “all news is bad news,” let’s look at the bright side. The chalkboard drawing gets erased so a new one can be drawn! The relationship ends, so a new, improved relationship has space to develop; the old business closes, so you are free to reinvent yourself and perhaps start one more appropriate to your soul’s calling. Like an old, worn-out shirt or broken car, “loss” can be a good thing!

One way or the other, we all may experience some heated emotional conversations as we and others are challenged to let go of long-held thoughts, attitudes, judgments, and beliefs. We may have to deal with our desire or other’s desire to control, manipulate, dominate, force, or threaten our thinking. Wherever Pluto is involved, we need to remember to stay in integrity, knowing that we may be challenged by the situation to not drop down into anger, revenge, jealousy, hatred, etc. So hang in there, knowing that it is work for the butterfly to break out of the cocoon, but future flight lies ahead!

Led Zeppelin expressed it this way!

So Much Love,
