Hi everyone! Wow! What's been happening? What hasn't!
We’re now birthed into the Scorpio New Moon
energy, ushered in along with a partial solar eclipse. Trusting our North
American/Russian spectators had a good view of the event.
What’s been
happening for the past week:
A week of cosmic activity building
to the New Moon solar eclipse!
What a week it’s been with cosmic activity
building to the partial Solar Eclipse/New Moon in Scorpio. Solar flares of
substantial proportions, sufficient to impact on the magnetic field, brought
magnetic storms and the ongoing visual impact of magnificent auroras.
Oronid Meteor Shower and Siding Spring Comet flying
past Mars:
We also had the Orionid meteor showers and
Siding Spring comet doing a fly by with Mars.
The meteor showers are annual events.
However, the comet ‘fly by’ was unusual, flashing past Mars with a wave of
energy. Picture on left.
Comets are
messengers:
Astrologically, comets signify new energy
being brought to consciousness. This is the first time Siding Springs comet has
come into the inner solar system.
Solar flares, magnetic
storm activity and some amazing auroras:
Solar flares of the past
week:
Solar flares are light energy coming from
our sun. Sometimes the flares are emitting from the opposite side of the Sun
away from the earth.
This past week, the solar flares were coming
directly at us, so the impact was greater. Added to this, the flares were
coming in waves of energy of varying magnitudes. On 22nd/23rd we had 2 major
flares of X magnitude. See graph below.
Solar flares and their impact:
Feisty or fragile?
Some people are affected in their whole
being, mind, body and spirit by solar flaring. Others are either not affected
or not aware of any change to their energies. They can expand our emotions,
feisty, feeble, angry, irritable, joyful.
They can energise or de-energise. You can feel
extra charged with the joy of life or you can feel nauseous, buzzy in the body
or overwhelmed by headaches, heavy head syndrome and exhaustion.
They can make you feel edgy and keep you up
all night, even if you’re exhausted or they can make you sleep till the end of
time.
We are all different in our relationship to
the world and the cosmos. We all have different preferences for food,
relaxation, interests, needs and wants.
One rule fits all is something from the
paradigm of the past.
Until we align with the natural law of the
cosmos, the natural laws of the universe as they are enacted in the natural
world, we are living out the rules interpreted by humans, the rules set down by
the dominant ideologies whether social, religious, political or the ideologies
of the ‘gurus’ of ‘right and wrong’.

We’ve just had another 2 major X flares on
24th/25th/26th (AEDT).
This is unusual.
The auroras kept happening all week:
Ole Salomonsen, the photographer, calls this one ‘Emerald Dynamite’.
It looks like an emerald angel to me.

October: Mercury stations direct in Libra 16 degrees 46 at 6.16 am
AEDT
Onward, slowly!
Mercury in Libra until 8th
November
Emerging from the retrograde
journey:
Reflections claimed or released! No more selfies!
What discoveries have you made about
yourself:
We’ve had about 3 weeks of retrograde
movement, in a world of reflections, smoke and mirrors confronted by the truth
of ourselves and the false images perpetrated by others and projected onto us.
During these past weeks, our mind power, our thoughts and established beliefs
have been undergoing a deep analysis as we’ve come face to face with aspects of
ourselves and who we are, who we think we are and who we really are! Any
misinformed thinking about yourself has been clearing in this energy.
Let the jigsaw pieces
fall into place: Now Mercury, our mind energy the messenger is ready
to move on. Heads back on shoulders, armed with new knowledge and information
about ourselves and our place in the world, we now just have to make sense of it
before we take action in the world. Let the jigsaw pieces fall into
place!
Time of reckoning:
An audit of our relationships,
patterns of behaviour which have brought imbalances to our being!
Libra is about relationships, so if you had
some realignment to do about yourself and others, your relationships and
embedded patterns of relating, you were probably faced with people you admired,
people you disliked, people who gave you insight about imbalances in your
relating behaviour. These ‘experiences’ of ‘facing’ people may well have
emerged from the memory banks and not in physical reality.
Organise, make sense of the
insights:
Minds will be refocussed and clarity will be restored!
Now we’ve gathered the glimpses of ourselves
and insights into our relating selves and our history, it’s time to organise
that information in our minds, to make sense of these fragments of insight,
following which we’re ready to make our minds up on what needs to change in our
lives and thence set a new course for our happiness. The last part will be easy
once we make sense of it all.
Looking good, feeling good!
Marking time
to 1st November: Mercury virtually at a standstill!
We’re moving
forward...slowly!
We’re marking time
as Mercury prepares for the next week to move in direct motion. We’re
regrouping and gathering our strength and resources as we prepare to move
forwards again. This next 5 to 7 days we’ll be integrating knowledge
accumulated during the past weeks of Mercury retrograde’s journey. We’ve been
re-discovering ourselves and the truth of who we are.
Appreciating
the breathing space:
After the Scorpio eclipse energies, integration
time!
Make the most of
this next week as we get used to the new territory of the Scorpio life and death
experience.
We won’t be back to
speed until 1st November. Patience, patience, patience. We’ll have quite
enough to deal with in the wake of the Scorpio New Moon energy and eclipse which
is speeding us through the change process.
Mercury in Libra moving direct until 8th
November:
Mind is still in ‘balancing’ mode
After the New Moon,
until 1st November, we’re weighing up options and possibilities in the first
week of the New Moon energy as new ideas present themselves to us.
Don’t be too hasty
about making hard and fast decisions at this time as there may be a feeling of
having to act on what presents to you, especially with Mars in earthy
Capricorn.
Usually, the first week of the New Moon brings the ideas, solutions
and new pathways to our conscious mind. A week later, on the first quarter of
the moon, we start bringing those new ideas and intentions into physical form, from 31st October.
On the mundane: Lines are now open!
On the mundane
level, technological, communication, transport and commercial glitches may now
start to resolve from their entangled mix ups. i know many people have had a
hard time of this retrograde period with all the above areas.
Communication, technology problems
clearing:
If you’re needing to
address technological or mechanical problems with communication
systems/implements or cars/bikes etc., take a couple of days breathing space
before you rush out and replace what seems broken or damaged. We’re still in a
go slow mode with Mercury for a few more days. Not totally clear sailing just
yet. Breathe and wait.
Not sure if this
horse is the before or after picture of technology glitches being rectified.
26th October:
Mars moves into Capricorn at 9.42 pm
AEDT...climb the mountain, build the dream
until 4th
December
Heading for the heights: Do you have
a head for heights?
Empire building time!
Mar is our drive,
passion, desire and represents our physical body. It rules the head! Mars says 'Let's go!'
Capricorn is pure
ambition and drive for attaining the top of the mountain! It is all earth,
dedicated to manifesting on the earthly plane.
Grounding physically: Walking on the earth!
Building our dreams!
This energy offers us some focus and drive
on our physical situation and earthly lives, a grounding counterbalance to the
emotionally deep and challenging energies of all the Scorpio change
process.
With Mars in Capricorn we’ve got some
serious driving energy coming in for us.
Hold your horses...steady: Rome wasn’t
built in a day!
Mars like to move and to move fast!
Capricorn is more cautious and steady, a step by step building of the dream, so
Mars may be somewhat contained by Capricorn’s serious and cautious approach.
Capricorn will hold Mars to a steady pace in the building process.
No heavy
lifting! Capricorn is ruled by Saturn:
Don’t
fall into old habits and beliefs about work and struggle!
Staying off the
treadmill!
Workaholics
Anonymous never have time for a meeting!
Say no to burnout!
With Mars in
Capricorn, the workaholic energy raises its head from the death throes and wants
to take charge of our lives again. Beware of pushing energies beyond the
pale.
Connecting
to the earth, walking, exercise:
Releasing the tensions for Mars and keeping
the Capricorn happy!
Capricorn wants to
keep going without a break, albeit at a steady pace. Mars wants to go full bore
and if allowed to do so can burn us out. However, Mars is our physical body and
needs to be honoured with appropriate relaxations to free up all the fiery
driving forceful energy. Take regular breaks from the the empire building!
Up to the 7th November Full Moon: Travelling in the eclipse
vortex! Life, death, rebirth and resurrection!
Release of energies leading into the New
Moon in Scorpio:
With the New Moon in Scorpio, you’re likely to have felt an uplift, a
release as we let go of so much that had arisen with the Full Moon in Aries 2
weeks ago.
Intensity will continue with greater focus:
Adjustment to new direction!
Now
we need to acclimate to the new energy coming in, the intense Scorpio energy
which is the powerful force taking us through the next lunar month. With the
solar eclipse energies, these change energies will be with us for the next 6
months to a year. Changes are happening, even if not yet manifest in your
earthly life.

Well
folks, we’re now heading towards the completion of the eclipse cycle with the
Full Moon in Taurus on 7th November. Mercury is returning us to a new place
which has not fully revealed itself to us just yet. The next week will unfold
with new insights and understanding which have been gathered through the
retrograde cycle. Stay open and ready. That’s all we can do.
Back on track!
We’re
all in this together, holding a vision of our hopes and dreams for ourselves and
for humanity. We just have to hold the vision, keep returning to the vision and
to fine tune the focus, adjusting that focus as new information comes to
light.
That
feeling of derailment is being released as we complete the last stage of the
eclipse journey and Mercury pulls out of his station and takes us in a forward
direction. Time to look to the future again!
As
always, love and blessings to us all!
