14th May 2016: Retrogrades, retrieving and rediscovering!

 
Hi everyone!
 
We’re on the Jupiter express which is pulling us forward through a whole stack of positive planetary energies.  Funny how these planetary energies can impact in what appears to be painful or negative manifestations in our physical world. 
 
Jupiter’s optimism bringing up resistant and contrasting energies:
Whilst Jupiter is bringing us into the positive optimism of the outer world it has been bringing up any conflicting energies held in our mind, body, spirit and heart.  Anything not in alignment with the positive and optimistic forward movement is now coming to the fore. We just have to keep choosing the ‘best’ way forward for us.  It’s upliftment or bust!
 

The retrograde planets clearing our energies: Resistance is futile!
Mercury, Mars, Saturn and Pluto may well be showing those contrasting energies with the mind/body manifesting challenges thanks to Mars and Mercury retrograde journeys.  Saturn is bringing alignment to our authentic selves, our true authority and Pluto’s clearing the overriding social conditioning and unhealthy attachments to the status quo.

Mercury and Mars still retrograde: The purification continues!
Just remember we still have Mercury and Mars still retrograde, clearing our mental and physical bodies with all manner of aches, pains, chaos,  turmoil and old reactions to the changes before us. It’s a time of rest and retreat, doing less to manifest more.  We’re in a very powerful time of magnetic attraction.  Have time out if needed. 
 





Until 22nd May:  Mercury mind makeover during Mercury retrograde!  Housecleaning the mind!
Mercury, the ruler of our mental body, travelling through Taurus is taking us back over some old territory.  There’s a focus on the mindsets and belief systems embedded in our physical being/Taurus and clearing anything that makes us feel worthless, less than, unworthy. 
 
Taurus, ruled by Venus/heart energy,  tunes us to who we are at our best and most talented, what we most value and what is aligned with our heart. The power of the divine mind makeover is happening as Mercury retrogrades through Taurus, the physical body which connects us to the heart of Mother Earth.  We are learning to listen to and follow our hearts and minds aligned with fulfilment.

From 9th to 13th May: 
Mercury in positive chat with the North Node of the Moon...raising the consciousness of the collective!
Mercury has been in harmonious conversation with the North Node of the moon for our planetary evolution.  We’re all in this together and we’re being united with one voice, one mind as Mercury our communication manager aligns with the higher voice for the planet.  We’re headed in the same direction...magnetic north!  The higher pathway calls us on!
 
 
From 11th to 15th May:  Mercury in chat mode with other planets...tuning the divine mind!
11th to 15th:  Mercury and Pluto in harmonious trine
 
13th to 14th:  Mercury meets Venus at 17 degrees Taurus...heart and mind aligned and fresh start!
 
13th to 15th:  Venus and Mercury in harmonious trine to Pluto at 17 degrees Capricorn...a power pack of change!
 



A fresh start for heart and mind:  Passionate connections!  Golden nuggets of divine union!
Mercury, our mind power, meeting with our heart energy in the sign of the bull, Taurus signifies a fresh start for these two energies with a rediscovery of each other and a renewal of ‘vows’.  With Pluto speaking harmoniously with mind and heart, we’re likely to discover some pure ‘gold’ in our inner gold mine as well as a unification which puts paid to that mind/heart conflict which has been so much a part of our planet’s signature. 
 
 
From 14th to 16th:  
Venus in positive alignment with the North Node of the Moon...raising hearts to one heart!
Venus is following Mercury’s progress coming up for a positive connection with the North Node on 15th which will be impacting us from 14th to 16th. Our hearts are being tuned and aligned with the planet, each other and with our own divine joy and fulfilment. 
 
 
Mercury transit of the Sun:  What happened?
Little Mercury trekking across the face of our Sun: 
Mercury, our mind power, was given a humungous blast of light power from the greatest source of light in our galaxy.

Minds being enlightened:
As we look at the tiny black dot to the left of the Sun in this image we get some idea of the nature of the cosmic forces with Mercury our smallest planet (apart from Pluto which is now regarded as a dwarf planet) travelling across the biggest and brightest planetary body in our galaxy.

Letting the light in:  Consciousness shifting!
With so much happening with Mercury at this time, this transit visible to us all thanks to modern Science, reinforces Mercury’s significance in the current force for evolving consciousness.  Mercury is our mind power and judging the big picture of the planet at this time, we’re all needing a big shift in consciousness in our mental processes and memory banks carried from time immemorial. Let’s remember that mind consciousness is not just the brain although we tend to think of it this way.

Light energies impacting the mental and communication energies!
The transit of Mercury occurring during this retrograde period along with all the solar activity brought in huge light energies into our mental body as well as karmic release from the cell memories and ancestral DNA held in 'bodies', mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. 

Physical body:  Are you feeling clearance in the throat, respiratory system, neck?  Are you learning to speak up from the heart?
Mercury rules the nervous system as well as the respiratory system.  Taurus rules the neck, the throat and thymus glands. 
If you’re feeling challenges in any of these parts of the body, then you may well be clearing some old blocked energies.  Mercury is the communication manager and in Taurus it’s quite possible we could be clearing out childhood, past history memories related to speaking up, being heard and acknowledged.  As well, we are being aligned with divine will, often experienced in the neck. 

Trusting that some of these resistant energies will shift once Mercury moves forward on 22nd May and again when it moves into Gemini on 13th June.

Until 30th June:  
Mars body makeover and recalibration!  Reclaiming the inner mastery!
Mars, the ruler of our physical body, travelling through Sagittarius is taking us back over some old territory. 
Mars retrograde in Sagittarius is working on the body too.  It’s all about clearing all the energies keeping us from our authentic self, inner wisdom and spiritual teacher.
 
It’s working on the cellular memories, ancestral DNA as well as all aspects of our physical constitution.  This is not just a paint job on the exterior. 
Any energies held within our body and within our masculine self/Mars energy which are keeping us from fulfilling our potential in the world will be cleared.  Hang onto your wizard’s hat!
 
 
Until 13th August:  Saturn retrograde in Sagittarius
Karmic clearance, aligning with inner authority, truth and wisdom!

From 7th to 23rd May:  Saturn on the Great Attractor
Lord of Karma meets with the ‘vacuum cleaner’ of the cosmos!
With Saturn, Lord of Karma, sitting on the Great Attractor at 14 degrees Sagittarius, we're in the throes of letting go of old burdens and karmic baggage. Venus, our heart energy, has been connecting with Saturn in a 'quirky' way over the past week so it's up to us to let the great 'vacuum' of the cosmos take away heartaches and challenging memories and 'shoot for gold'!

The path of heart, the path of destiny calls and we hear it if we are ready and willing. Passionate connection to the potentials of the future can pull us forward into the manifestation of those hopes and dreams. Do we believe? It's all down to us.

The Great Attractor:  What we know about the Science
The Great Attractor is regarded as an ‘anomaly’ by the scientific world.  More powerful in energy than the black hole at the centre of our galaxy, the Galactic Centre or the black hole at the centre of our Super Galaxy, the Super Galactic Centre, it has a magnetic pull which is beyond our understanding at this stage.

The Great Attractor:  Astrology
Explanations and interpretations are based on the GA’s behaviour.  It works like a giant vacuum cleaner sucking everything into its centre.   

Saturn’s retrograde journey:  Like ‘detailing’ our vehicles!
Saturn has already travelled forward across the Great Attractor in the past couple of months.  Now it crosses again as it continues its retrograde journey.  Once Saturn moves forward again in August and Saturn will move over the Great Attractor for the last time for some time to come. 

Each time it crosses, we should notice a difference, hopefully a little less challenging if we’ve been cleaning up our act. Retrograde journeys give indicators of our progress and how much more or less we need to do.  We don’t necessarily have to wait till the end of the whole journey to notice an uplift!





The past week:  Solar activity!
We’ve had some moderate to strong magnetic storms this past week stirring up earth’s magnetic field and manifesting some beautiful auroras in the world.

Tired, exhausted, tetchy or energised:  It’s all light energy activating the magnetic fields on the earth!
Solar activity whether it be solar flares, magnetic storms, solar winds and other manifestations have the capacity to affect the earth and her atmosphere and for many people it can affect their alignment of mind, body or spirit.  Sleeplessness, nervous tension or appetite changes are just three of the possible symptoms experienced by some people.  However, many experience a surge of energy and upliftment.  Like anything, it’s a personal experience which offers more attunement to the cosmos and alignment with the planetary rhythms.

Upcoming Dates:
21st May:   Sun moves into Gemini
22nd May:  Full Moon in Sagittarius
22nd May:  Mercury moves direct
24th May:  Venus moves into Gemini


That’s it folks! 

This is the update I hadn’t planned but it seems the cosmos has other ideas.  With so much happening and often at a subliminal level, within our bodies and subconscious, it’s felt challenging in different ways whether mentally, emotionally, physically or spiritually.  Maybe you’ve been ‘hit’ at all levels of your being.  Wherever we need a ‘clean up’ we’re getting it.

The Sun moves into Gemini on 21st May and puts our focus on the mental body, the air element, so a shift away from earthy Taurus.  The Full Moon in Sagittarius on 22nd brings in the fire element and lights up our emotions.  That same body, Mercury moves direct although still in earthy Taurus.  So next week will bring quite a shift to the fire and air energies.  Hopefully, the physical body will feel some release!

As always, love and blessings to us all as we steam across the countryside, taking in the beautiful views and feeling the aches and pains which are resistant to the beauty and love available to us at all times.  We’re learning.  We’re reaching for it!
