still in the dark…

by | Dec 26, 2011 | Astrology Blog

we just began a new lunar cycle on christmas eve day (12/24) and jupiter stationed direct yesterday (12/25) which would normally show a positive upswing in energy.  that is definitely there- but we are approaching a sun/pluto conjunction on wednesday the 28th that is very INTENSE!  so we still have a few days that require we make our way through the dark and the shadows.

luckily jupiter is in trine aspect to pluto- so there is opportunity to harness the intensity and make it work for us.  just like the stone that undergoes intense pressure and heat and turns into a diamond- we can move through this period and transform ourselves in the process.

tomorrow morning mercury cojoins the north node at 14 sagittarius.  this aspect has occurred two others times due to mercury’s retrograde- so think back to 11/14 and 12/2 and see what conversations, communications and insights were occurring then.  this week you may get the final piece of info that helps you piece a puzzle that, up until now, has remained confusing and obscure.  mercury and the north node also align with the great attactor- a powerful evolutionary point that pulls us forward and makes us grow.  really significant shifts are happening right now- but they are not going to be without growing pains.  ‘the pain you feel is the breaking of the shell that encloses you’ (k. gibran).  move through the pain and let go so you can grow!

jupiter rules mercury and the north node right now- so look to where jupiter is in your natal chart (check horoscopes posted in a couple hours) to see where the Universe has got your back and is supporting your in expansive, optimistic ways.

we are ending one very intense year and starting an even more potent one.  give this year it’s due.  complete things, release the past- and make room for what wants to come in.  the more space you have the more opportunities you will be able to embrace.  don’t bring along old baggage from the past (emotional/physical/financial/relationship/psychological) that holds you back from Who You Really Are.

give thanks for the endings as much as the beginnings :)
