Hi everyone!
Well it’s certainly been a major wind up with major planetary downloads and
gear changes this past week, month, year!
We’ve just said goodbye to the
last day of Sun in Sagittarius. It's been quite a rocky solar month with so much
higher consciousness on offer challenging all those old energies which have been
resistant to change.
Maybe you felt it in your
physical body as waves of light challenged the memory banks held in our cells,
triggered by all manner of irrational fears, doubts or insecurities.
My rule of thumb is when the
fears etc. are irrational and can't be pinned down to childhood or this
lifetime, they're coming from some deep karmic 'wounds' that we're clearing. I
speak from my experience and what works for me.
Personally, I find the heat a
huge 'trigger' as irrational fears from other times and realities come to the
surface. So I'm recovering from the past few days of heat as the cool change
came in this morning.
The next few days promises to
take us through even more as we move into the December solar gateway from
Sagittarius to Capricorn.
The Solstice ‘doorway’: Sun moving into Capricorn at
3.28 am AEDT
The Sun moves into Capricorn
at 3.28 am AEDT on 22nd December. This movement of the sun marks the December
Solstice. In the Southern Hemisphere it's the summer solstice and the Northern
Hemisphere has the winter solstice.
We come into a seasonal/light balancing act for
that day signifying the culmination, turning point of one season to another.
We’re talking Science and ancient earth traditions which acknowledge the changes
in the light and the seasons.
The ancient people worked with the cosmos, the Sun, Moon and Stars
acknowledging the cycles of change and working with them as seasonal messages of
active, growing times and times of rest and waiting times.
And it was the ancient people who worked with the cosmos giving meaning and
interpretations to the planetary bodies which we know as Astrology. It’s not an
‘exact’ science but then science isn’t exact as new information is constantly
changing our view of the nature of reality, of matter and of life on earth and
‘out there’.
22nd December: Sun enters Capricorn at 3.28 am
AEDT
Set your sights on that mountain!
Until 20th January
It’s a new time: Time to accept our spiritual authority on
earth!
The Sun’s entry to Capricorn is a call to us to start working with our
powers of manifestation on the earthly realm. We are the dreamers, the
‘imagineers’ who through building our visions in the esoteric realm and our
higher mind, are able to bring such dreams into our earthly existence. For many
years, lifetimes we’ve been working on the refinement of these skills and our
faith in the process.
Powerful time for bringing dreams to
earth:
This year is particularly powerful for bringing us into a reinforcement of
our gifts for bringing dreams to earth. This is primarily because of Saturn’s
entry into Capricorn for the next 2 and a half years. Yes, 2 and a half years,
not 3 as previously stated on my updates. I just got a bit carried away with
rounding up. 
Saturn and the Sun: More power, strength and
support!
When the Sun enters Capricorn, Saturn will be
sitting on the same degree waiting for the Sun to birth us into new solar
energy. Without doubt Saturn is our greatest friend and ally in the coming
years and if we are ready, willing and trusting of this great power of Saturn,
we’re in for a magical ride.
Bringing ideas and possibilities into manifestation!
The next solar month is very much keeping us on
track with bringing so many ideas and possibilities together at least mentally.
Taking time to ruminate on a possible scheme and how that will work without
trying to pin it down too much is a very worthwhile exercise. Sometimes, when
we write it down we start fixing it into a format which can be restrictive.
Doesn’t have to be so but it starts coming into physical existence when we write
it down. It is a personal exercise in what works or doesn’t work for you.
Capricorn’s call to access our highest potential:
It starts now with the Sun and Saturn in Capricorn
meeting today on the solstice!
Divine alignment:
Who are you and what is your ‘brief’ this
lifetime?
Working life and spiritual alignment...where are we?
Capricorn brings our attention to our career,
working life, income and finding success in a chosen field. We access gifts and
talents to express them in the world. We generally prefer to work at something
which expands our capacities to be a successful earth being.
Getting off the treadmill: Yet how many people in the
world are working merely to access the financial return which supports them in
their lives, regardless of where they are in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.
Judging by health, wellbeing, mental stress statistics, we have a lot of people
who are ‘sick’ of the work they do, unfilled creatively and spiritually.
Capricorn calls us to our own unique mountain:
It’s the physical
manifestation and alignment with our spiritual brief!
We can only start with ourselves, addressing our
‘spiritual brief’ this lifetime, our focus for evolving from living a treadmill
existence which lacks the joy of creative growth and expansion. The spiritual
‘brief’ is what our focus is for this lifetime as a being of spiritual
evolution. The challenge is ‘marrying’ a career path and a spiritual path.
This is the beginning of a time whilst Saturn is in Capricorn when we can bring
it all together.
It’s a time of divine alignment:
Bringing work and spirit together
for the restructuring of our world!
I imagine that the next couple of years many people will be feeling the
pressure to jump off the treadmill of thinking and living ‘hard’ work. Saturn
is not difficult if we are prepared to access our spiritual authority and take
the step by step approach.
Capricorn is about dedication, devotion, commitment
and willingness to follow through with bringing those energies into our physical
lives. Work is not ‘hard’ if you’re feeling the full Capricorn ‘effect’,
finding a personal sense of respect and fulfilment in the work you choose to
do. We only get burnout when we overdo, we stay too long in a lacklustre
situation when we need some new stimulation.
23rd December:

Until 22nd March 2018 Next retrograde
11th January: Mercury moves out of shadow and into Capricorn
Art: Masood Rangrazan
Here we come out of the Mercury labyrinth of
mental makeover! Our Sagittarian horses are bringing our new thinking into our
earthly realm. It might not be immediately clear what messages they’re bringing
in for us.
It’s been a galactic makeover bringing higher consciousness:
But it won’t be too long as Mercury starts moving forwards again bringing
realisations as he crosses over those degrees from 13 to 26 Sagittarius where
we’ve been cleaning up some thinking and mindsets.
Revamped, upgraded and renewed:
Are you ready to open to the new?
We’ve been upgraded in the way our minds think, the galactic energies in
Sagittarius helping us to come out of the mental cesspool of collective thinking
which keeps us treading old grapes of mass consciousness. We are reaching for
new ways of thinking where our minds can soar with uplifting thoughts and a
higher perspective.
11th January: Out of shadow and then into
Capricorn!
Mercury moves out of shadow retrograde at 29 degrees Sagittarius!
When Mercury moves out of shadow retrograde after crossing the Galactic
Centre, we’re likely to feel a huge leap forward in our understanding of all the
downloads/upgrades which have been occurring. We’ll be really ready to launch
ourselves back into the new world in a new form. Mercury will then be joining
Venus, the Sun and Saturn all in Capricorn.
Mars, our fire, drive and ruler of our physical body won’t be in Capricorn
until March, the day after the New Moon in Pisces and a few days before the
March Equinox. Lots more happening in March but more on that later. We’ve got
plenty to work with right now and it’s all about Mercury getting it together and
working with the new insights and uplifting thinking.
25th December: Venus enters Capricorn at 4.25 pm
AEDT
’Are you having any fun?’
Until 18th January
Attaining respect for ourselves and our
mastery on earth:
Now Venus enters the Capricorn ‘party’ or should I say ‘meeting’ along with
the Sun and Saturn. In Astrology, Capricorn has not been known for playful
childlike energy as life is serious business with the emphasis on business and
success in the world. It’s all about achievement and reaching the top of the
mountain feeling the wave of self-respect and self-esteem which we feel when we
achieve something of importance and value in our lives. The respect comes from
within.
Venus in Capricorn: Commitment to our heart’s joy! What brings
you joy?
In Astrology, Venus rules money and love as the love we have for who we
are, what we do and how we feel about ourselves, our values and lives and is all
reflected in the money arena. The adage ‘do what you love and the money will
follow’ is very much the theme for Venus in Capricorn, a time for setting us in
the right direction at a heart level.
Time to access our Saturn authority: Wizard power!
Making the commitment to what you love!
It can relate to work. home, family, partnership, interests, travel and of
course spiritual growth and enlightenment.
Capricorn is the sign that offers enormous potential for all those who seek
the perfection of divine connection with love and divine reunion at the top of
the spiritual peak as it helps us practise devotion and dedication.
Clarifying heart desires and setting priorities:
This next month is just the time to get the heart focussed on how you want
to live on earth and setting those priorities in line with your heart energy.
Maybe take some time out in the coming weeks to acknowledge your personal goal
achievements this year which made you feel respect and love for yourself. It’s
been a big year across the planet and we all just kept going with faith in
ourselves and commitment to our goals. Congratulations everyone! We made
it!
Let’s reclaim Saturn’s positive image as we move into accessing the
power of this planetary force: How about making time for some
fun!
It’s interesting that Venus will be in Capricorn
on Christmas Day when we consider that once upon a time Saturnalia, the festival
of the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere was celebrated with the spirit
of joy and thanksgiving that we know now as Christmas. What interests me is
how Saturn is now perceived as such an austere energy who is really not into
what we see as joyful festivities. Maybe this is a good time to start seeing
Saturn as he was once perceived as ‘a god of generation, dissolution, plenty,
wealth, agriculture, periodic renewal and liberation’.
I particularly liked the concept of Saturnalia as role reversal of
rich/poor, master/servant as an expression of the festival. And...slaves
released at least for one day. How good would it be if this happened in the
present day and became the best festival of the year as it was then.
From Wikipedia on Saturnalia:
Saturnalia was an ancient Roman
festival in honour of the god Saturn, held on 17 December of the Julian
calendar and later expanded with festivities through to 23 December. The
holiday was celebrated with a sacrifice at the Temple of
Saturn, in the Roman
Forum, and a public banquet, followed by private gift-giving, continual
partying, and a carnival atmosphere that overturned Roman social
norms: gamblingwas permitted, and masters provided table service for their
slaves.[1] The poet Catullus called it "the best of days".[2] It was the Roman equivalent to the earlier Greek holiday of
Kronia, which was celebrated during the Attic
month of Hekatombaion in late midsummer.
Saturn
(Latin:
Saturnus pronounced
[saˈtʊr.nʊs])
is a god in ancient Roman
religion,
and a character in myth
as a god of generation, dissolution, plenty, wealth, agriculture, periodic
renewal and liberation. In later developments, he also came to be a god of time.
His reign was depicted as a Golden
Age
of plenty and peace. The Temple of
Saturn
in the Roman
Forum
housed the state treasury. In December, he was celebrated at what is perhaps the
most famous of the Roman
festivals,
the Saturnalia,
a time of feasting, role reversals, free speech, gift-giving and revelry.
Saturn
the planet and Saturday
are both named after the god.

Sun and Venus in Capricorn
Sing for next 2 1/2 years for Saturn in Capricorn!
‘Are you having any Fun’ Flanagan and Allen lyrics:
Hey fellow with a million smackers
And nervous indigestion
Rich fellow, eats milk and crackers
I'll ask you one question
You silly so and so
With all your dough
And nervous indigestion
Rich fellow, eats milk and crackers
I'll ask you one question
You silly so and so
With all your dough
Are you havin' any fun?
What y'gettin' out o' livin'?
What good is what you've got
If you're not havin' any fun?
What y'gettin' out o' livin'?
What good is what you've got
If you're not havin' any fun?
Are you havin' any laughs?
Are you gettin' any lovin'?
If other people do,
So can you, have a little fun
Are you gettin' any lovin'?
If other people do,
So can you, have a little fun
After the honey's in the cone
Little bees go out and play
Even the old gray mare down home
Has got to have hay, hey!
Little bees go out and play
Even the old gray mare down home
Has got to have hay, hey!
You better have some fun
You ain't gonna live forever
Before you're old and gray, feel okay
Have your little fun, son!
Have your little fun!
You ain't gonna live forever
Before you're old and gray, feel okay
Have your little fun, son!
Have your little fun!
Why do you work and slave and
save?
Life is full of ifs and buts
You know the squirrels save and save
And what have they got, nuts!
Life is full of ifs and buts
You know the squirrels save and save
And what have they got, nuts!

Hugs all around!
We’re all reaching and dreaming and wishing and hoping for a better world,
a better life, more joy, love and fulfilment and we’re all doing it in our own
particular way, accessing our unique energy and dreams. There are many paths to
enlightenment yet the spiritual goal is the same for us all.
Once again, congratulations to us all for this past year’s commitment to
living more fully in love for ourselves, others and of course our beautiful
planet. Every one of us makes a difference and we must never forget that. The
consciousness shift is expanding exponentially with more ahead for us all.
Love and blessings my dear fellow travellers! Such respect for us all as
human beings on earth at this time. We are united in the power of love and the
desire to bring the expression of that love across the world. Whatever it
takes.
