The SHIFT OF THE AGES

1  The players: Saturn and Jupiter move into Aquarius

Saturn has been in his home sign of Capricorn for the last 2.5 years, a pretty serious time of it all round, although he had a brief escape to Aquarius this year – you might remember that period when the oppressive nature of Covid seem to lift?  It was when we discovered that the air was suddenly beautifully clear, people could see the Himalayas for the first time in ages, rivers and streams ran clear once again, and the world seemed to pause and reassess everything – as if to say “Wow, this is what the future could be like?” 

Saturn had moved into Aquarius, an Air Sign, and it was like a breath of fresh air in our very constricted Covid existence.  Because the planes weren’t flying, we had to fall back on our local communities and rely on local produce to feed us – this sense of community is very Aquarian, part of the energy we’re moving into now.

Saturn only stayed a few months in Aquarius before he had to return to Capricorn for the last time.  The heaviness of that return was palpable, taking people back into a more burdened state of being.

Saturn moves into Aquarius for good (well, for the next 2.5 years) on Thurs 17 Dec, and I am sure that once again we’ll feel a lifting of that hugely oppressive energy that has beset us in the last nine months.

Jupiter is hot on Saturn’s heels, moving into Aquarius on Sat 19 Dec, and chasing Saturn down – they’re due to meet for their supremely historic conjunction on Tues 22 Dec at 4.20am AEST – for most writers based in Europe and the US that is of course Mon 21 Dec.  Jupiter is never very happy in Capricorn, and moving into Aquarius will be like a breath of freedom for him.

 

2.  THE GREAT MUTATION – A SHIFT OF THE AGES

Jupiter and Saturn join up for their historic Grand Conjunction just 8 hours after the Solstice, at zero degrees Aquarius.

This is a hugely momentous time, a real Shift of the Ages.

Jupiter and Saturn meet every 20 years, and those cycles in themselves are felt to be of huge significance in the evolution of society.

However there’s a much bigger cycle at work – the 20-year cycles fall in the same element for 240 years, and then there is a Great Mutation where the larger cycle shifts and changes element.  That is what is occurring now.  After the last 240 years of the Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions falling in Earth signs –  a heavy, solid, materialistic energy that spawned the Industrial Revolution and saw unprecedented exploitation of the Earth’s resources – these conjunctions are moving into the lighter, connected energy of Air signs, beginning with Aquarius. The last time we had a Great Mutation into Air signs was 1226, so you can see why it’s such a historic time.

In many ways we could argue that this shift now is the beginning of the much-heralded Age of Aquarius – there are many ways you can define that, but this would certainly be one of them (that plus Pluto moving into Aquarius in 2024, which will certainly add to the Aquarian nature of the times).  There is so much more I could say about this, about the implications for us and our lives (which I’ll go into in my Paradigm Shift webinar in January) but for now, know that this is truly a Shift of the Ages, that it’s amazing that we’re here to witness this, and that things are going to get much, much better!!!  It is so exciting!!!

Shifting Belief Systems -Third Jupiter-Pluto conjunction 2020

Shifting Belief Systems – Third Jupiter-Pluto Conjunction

 

The third and last of the Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions is on Fri 13 Nov at 22 Capricorn, the exact same degree of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in January of this year, asking us to reexamine our views of the way that very heavy energy combination has manifested this year.

Jupiter and Pluto together invite us to transform our belief systems, and by now, with this third contact, we’ve had quite a bit of practice at this!  Hopefully we’ve now integrated these energies well.

Personally I see this shift in belief systems as a necessary precursor for the even bigger collective shift that is coming at the end of this year as Jupiter and Saturn meet up in the Air sign of Aquarius, ushering in a new 200-year cycle where our focus is no longer on the dense Earth energy of material wealth and exploitation of the earth’s resources, but a lighter, freer energy that focuses on communities, connections, and technological innovations that will benefit all life on the planet.  It’s already coming, and we got a glimpse of it in the early days of the pandemic when people realised that all the things the powers-that-be had said they couldn’t possibly do (like restrict air travel, close polluting factories – stop the world basically – and give people a universal income) suddenly happened overnight.  It was like a breath of fresh air, and a glimpse of the new era that awaits us.  I’ll write more on this soon.

Venus starts her new 584-day cycle

 

 Venus starts her new 584-day cycle

On Thurs 4 June Venus gets to the midpoint of her retrograde journey and joins with the Sun.  This is known as the inferior or interior conjunction of Venus to the Sun (as it’s the one nearest the Earth), and it’s especially significant because it marks the beginning of the next 584-day cycle of Venus, a cycle sacred to the Mayans.

Following this, she will soon rise in the East as the Morning Star, her warrior goddess incarnation, a time that was traditionally seen as a good omen to go to war.  She’ll be first visible as a Morning Star around Fri 12 June, rising in the pre-dawn light before the Sun in the east – you’ll need to get up early to see her in her glory!!!

The lovers Venus and Mars are at odds this month, with Mars in dreamy Pisces and Venus in curious Gemini all month long – in fact because of her retrograde motion, Venus will be in Gemini for a total of 4 months The lovers are unlikely to see eye-to-eye, and will have to put a lot of effort into getting along together this lunar month.

Living in extraordinary times: Jupiter-Pluto conjunction

What extraordinary times we’re living in!  The intense lockdowns (however necessary) are one manifestation of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction that occurred at the start of this year, now bringing in this new era of authoritarian control. This exercise of extreme power by governments world-wide is likely to continue throughout 2020 with the Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions we’ll be experiencing three times, starting this lunar month.  The Astrology of the pandemic is absolutely fascinating and I’ve shared some in-depth analyses on my Chirone Shakti-Stargazer Astrology Facebook page, so head over there if you want to find out more! 

From a metaphysical point of view, I feel this will be a really significant turning point for the world – people and Mother Earth herself.  Fewer flights, less pollution as the factories close, they say people in China are breathing clean air and hearing bird song for the first time in a very long time.  Finally we are taking drastic measures to reduce climate change, albeit inadvertently! – we’re giving Mother Earth a break and a chance to heal.  Local community spirit is re-emerging as communities in lockdown in Europe sing and play music from their balconies, and many people are rediscovering the joys of growing their own food or finding they now have time, away from the mad rush of contemporary life, to take up creative pursuits.  It’s an opportunity for us to discover what our core values really are, and to break our dependence on the rampant consumerism that characterizes our lives (another manifestation of Uranus in Taurus).

 

Following on from the heavy energy of the authoritarian Saturn-Pluto conjunction in January of this year, extending the theme into extreme uses of power as I mentioned above, we have the Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions occurring three times this year in April, June and November.

Jupiter expands whatever it touches, and here it is configured with Pluto, god of the Underworld, signifying power – often hidden power – in both its light and dark forms: misuse and abuse of power when manifesting negatively, and empowerment in its positive form.

Jupiter is associated with belief systems, so we can expect the power of belief systems to be a big player in events unfolding this year, and maybe massive transformation for us all.  This is interesting in the context of COVID-19 where for example, we have the belief system of the establishment (and any covert players like big pharma) being in a very strong position of control.  The potential though, with Pluto present, is for the complete breakdown of the old belief system – and its subsequent transformation.

The first of these Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions falls on Sun 5 April at 24 Capricorn, just two degrees away from the Saturn-Pluto conjunction of 13 Jan (AEST).

Eclipse season – take extra care! Longest ‘Blood Moon’ this century!!!

partial solar eclipse

Can you feel the intensity of the energies right now??!!!

We’re at the start of the eclipse season, and it’s particularly intense because this is an extended eclipse season.  Instead of the usual two eclipses – one solar, one lunar, we’ve got three:  TWO solar and one lunar, and the lunar eclipse just happens to be the longest total lunar eclipse anyone will experience this century!!!

Eclipses bring unexpected changes into people’s lives, so take extra care at this time, especially when driving for example.  Don’t take any risks.

*

Here’s the information on the eclipses for the next lunar month:

The Solar Eclipse New Moon in Cancer on Fri 13 July represents the opportunity for a significant new cycle to begin in relation to the feminine. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, symbolising women, mothering and the sacred feminine. This eclipsed New Moon represents the beginning of a significant new cycle in the way we care for others, the way we nurture ourselves, and our relationship with women in general.

Cancer is a water sign, sensitive and emotional, with a strong need for emotional security. This is the sign associated with home and family, so this New Moon can also mark the beginning of a new sense of belonging, perhaps a new phase in our home and family life, or our sense of belonging to a ‘tribe’.

Cancer has a tenacious connection to the past – Cancerians have strong emotional attachments and don’t like to let go of anything! The eclipsed New Moon in Cancer represents the beginning of a significant new phase in our relationship with the past, an opportunity to emotionally release whatever no longer serves us. Thyme essential oil and the Australian Bush Flower Essence Bottlebrush are particularly good remedies for supporting you to let go – contact me if you need to order.

If your birthday falls close to the date of this eclipsed New Moon, this marks a year of highly significant new beginnings in your life, particularly with regard to your identity, your sense of self and your purpose in life.

Your New Moon intentions will be especially powerful this month because of the solar eclipse.  Remember to set your intentions for this lunar month within 24 hours of the New Moon. The New Moon is exact at 12.47pm Queensland time (AEST).

Blood Moon, total lunar eclipse

The Total Lunar Eclipse “Blood Moon” on Sat 28 July is the longest total lunar eclipse this century! The total phase of the lunar eclipse will last almost an hour and three-quarters, and the whole eclipse will unfold over nearly 4 hours. It’ll be visible in Australia – if you’re prepared to get up really early, well before dawn!

Lunar eclipse starts at 3.14am Queensland time AEST,

  • partial eclipse starts at 4.24am,
  • full total eclipse (Blood Moon) starts 5.30am,
  • max eclipse is at 6.21am,
  • eclipse ends at 6.35am in Queensland because the Moon sets (it’ll keep going for longer further west).
  • There’s a great graphic/video and info at https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/australia/brisbane

The Total Lunar Eclipse is the Full Moon in Aquarius on Sat 28 July 2018 (Fri 27 July in Europe and the Americas) which highlights the importance of establishing a balance between the needs of the collective and the needs of the individual. It may bring new and experimental ideas into sharp focus. Full Moons often bring situations to a head, and the eclipse intensifies this energy, so be prepared for humanitarian issues (such as refugees) to reach some kind of crisis point, where resolution becomes imperative. Total lunar eclipses are also often associated with earth changes such as earthquakes and volcanos, so expect to see more of these in the news at this time. The eclipsed Full Moon falls at 4 degrees of Aquarius and is exact at 6.20am AEST, so the best time for ceremony and celebrations is the previous night, Fri 27 July.

Uranus moves into Taurus – Shifts in mass consciousness

Uranus - Iceland Storm

 

 

Uranus in Taurus is something of a contradiction in terms as Uranus the Great Awakener, the planet that brings earthquakes, lightning storms and mass shifts of consciousness moves into the sign of solid, immovable Earth-bound Taurus!!! 

Uranus moves into Taurus on Wed 16 May, the day after the New Moon in Taurus which invites us to begin a new cycle in our relationship with Mother Earth and our physical world.  The New Moon in Taurus invites us to connect deeply with the land, to appreciate the abundance of Nature, to acknowledge the sacred beauty of the Earth and to embody this by stepping into our protective role as her guardians.

Uranus moving into Taurus will amplify this impulse a thousand-fold, bringing a mass awakening of respect for this planet we call home, Mother Earth, and increasing our awareness of how we are destroying her pristine environment on every front.  

Over the next seven years, the environmental movements that have so far existed on the fringes will become completely mainstream, so that in 7 years’ time, by the end of Uranus’ journey through Taurus, no-one will ever believe that we used poisons to grow our food, that we abused and horrendously slaughtered animals for meat, or that we treated the oceans as sewage and garbage dumps.  We are waking up to our responsibility for these eco-atrocities, to our responsibility for the stewardship of the planet, and there’s a growing desire globally to return to the pristine environment that Earth once enjoyed.  Uranus in Taurus is very likely to see this shift in consciousness become mainstream.

In addition, Uranus in Taurus will bring an increased awareness of our physical bodies and the effect of food and the environment on our bodies.  One likely development of this new consciousness is that veganism will become far more common, gaining the same popularity as vegetarianism has now.

Organic farming is likely to become much more widely accepted as the obvious solution to issues such as killing off our pollinators (bees + many other beneficial insects) by using toxic chemicals in agricultural food production.  Without pollinators, we won’t have any crops!

Uranus is associated with innovation and new technologies, as well as a radical, revolutionary approach. “Digital disruption” is classic Uranus!  As Uranus moves through Taurus, these new technologies are likely to be applied not only to agriculture but also (through the Venus rulership of Taurus) to the finance sector.  Uranus in Taurus is likely to see significant changes in money dealings and currencies, such as the rise in cryptocurrencies (eg Bitcoin, one of the earliest) which have been made possible by blockchain technology.  Significantly, given Uranus’ reputation for revolution, cryptocurrencies don’t rely on the central banks but have decentralised control.  This represents a seismic shift in the power base of the establishment, and will be a major player in its inevitable transformation as we continue through Pluto in Capricorn (until 2025, aligning perfectly with the seven years of Uranus in Taurus!).

Blockchain technology can also be applied to agriculture.  One of its advantages is that it can trace the origin and content of food products, securely recording whether it’s from a certified organic source or it’s been sustainably fished/raised/harvested for example, at every stage along the food supply chain.  At the click of an app we’ll be able to trace the journey of our food from source to table, bringing a welcome transparency to food labelling.

Uranus is in Taurus until early July 2025 (returns briefly to Aries early Nov 18 – early March 19)
