In Santa Barbara Ca, the MidHeaven/IC axis is opposite the Galactic center! The chart’s Mars is exactly conjunct the GC no matter where the chart is calculated! It’s going to be a LONG amazing ride!
This is a Virgo Moon Handle Bucket Chart starting 2024! (See her out there all by herself to the left?!) Mama is making a superlative classic harmony Female-Male Earth trine with Master Sun in Capricorn. She’s the worker bee community service rep, all details are finely done, and Capricorn oversees the entire project, time management, sets up the presentations. They are fueled by Jupiter in Taurus, completing a GRAND EARTH TRINE! Jupiter has been behind them, making sure needed materials are at hand. He has long term plans that they are putting into action for him. It’s a blessed team. See more about Bucket Charts!
Regardless of their parts they play, Mother Moon is the primary in this double (at Santa Barbara) Virgo chart, Moon and Ascendant! She is out front for all to see. Her manners will be important, ready words of response, well selected and both technical and heartfelt will be important. She will be taking their cause or sale of their goods, out to the public. The details she discloses or not will make a difference. Some she meets will have health issues that will bias their attention. She may have to address their personal physical discomforts before they are able to fully listen.
She also has to have ready ears. They want to ‘sell’ their points of view as well. She needs to be keen to listen when the conversation shifts to what they have to offer. That may be a subtle turning. Could require an immediate kind response and gratitude or the connection is lost… It means a lot for some people to give. It may be a small offering, but so significant that others follow suit if well received. Also, Moon is gathering informations to take home to her people. Her efficiency and details can make all the difference to their future success.
There is a three planet Sagittarius mini STELLIUM! It’s bouncy in contrast with the more steady and serious Earth Trine! Venus loves the Path, the possibilities, she is inconjunct Jupiter, the Sagittarius planet so ties in with the Grand Trine. They could find a place to sit that has a view to put a big breath into your vision! There ARE places to go! They will have a good chat, she will bless and grace him with the beauty and value of her ideas. She will leave him, but he is excited to expand his plans and perspectives! Jupiter Taurus!
Venus is also square Saturn. We don’t always get what we want in the time we want, at the price we want. That includes relationships. Venus in Sagittarius is kinda runaway anyway. She gets bored easily. Sometimes she needs to settle down and this tests her patience and dedication, her word. Sometimes she signs up and has learned this isn’t for her, isn’t what it seemed to be, and it’s best to mosey on down the road. She may be without work for a while, and finds she’s ok with that until something more right for her Soul is offered. She may be impressed by the stature of a spiritual Soul, but find that is not the reason to linger. As much as someone else admires her, it may seem like a prison to a butterfly! Wait for a bit, keep traveling, this will pass. Wait for mutual purpose. Focus on your education, topics that make your heart sing! Great way to meet like minded others! Invest cautiously, a smaller trial amount to test it. Saturn in Pisces
Mercury is finishing up 2023’s last Retrograde this very day, turns forward at 7:07 PM Pacific!! He is in Station, focusing on the coming changes, important plans for 2024 but is also being released by this turn! Mercury has been up to 8 Capricorn, but back to 22 Sagittarius to update intentions, adjust directions, path choices in view of the important jobs Capricorn is now dedicated to. Mercury checks the ethics, the whole Truth, the honest purpose and renews inspiration and faith in the team. And Mercury reminds Cap to have FUN, LOL! Schedule that play date!
In the upcoming days Mercury will be squaring Neptune in his own sign Pisces. Mercury in a fire sign is like greased lightning even when he is in station, which he will be through the 5th. Mercury is logical, and in Sagittarius practically sees straight to the core in a hot second! But. Neptune is SO different. Silent, smooth, no angles, morphs a minute, distractible, discerning of the deeper meanings beyond Sagittarian mere perspectives. Sometimes Neptune doesn’t make sense, is indiscernible, seemingly at times invisible, even inaccessible… That drives ‘I wanna know NOW’ Mercury nuts! Yet Mercury comes to find even not knowing is a legitimate state of mind, even freeing, relaxing, opening! Even Sag and Mercury have to learn there are different ways of communicating. The answer may BE there is no answer. Sometimes Sag is very broadminded and takes it in stride, and sure enough, not pushed, the revelation connection comes. If it’s an emergency, do your best. Neptune in Pisces
Btw, 2024-25 is Neptune’s last time in Pisces until 2175. It enters Aries 3.30.25. These are signs of Initiation, Pisces of Soul, Dream matters, and Aries the physical Action, Doing it!
Mars already did square Neptune, bathed in the deep waters, explored the underwater mountains. Exotic terrain. Sometimes it’s clear as a cathedral bell at morning, other times its murky and you have no idea where you are, even totally dark. Surrender can be a key word. Let loose and let Neptune take you where you have never been. Flow with the currents. Your perception changes. You can be confused or simply free, no agenda. You get where you get. You learn how to ‘listen’ more deeply, find a meaningful place in yourself that you are not willing to give up. You are on God’s time in God’s place. You may rush or not, but you will know when to do which. You have been initiated to yourself.
Mars is hard to hold back! Fire planet in Fire sign! He’s at 27°, almost there already! Capricorn Sun groans, sees him coming. Cap likes order, but he realizes Mars is mainly ungovernable. But Mars does get and keeps things going, finds amazing options in a twinkling, is downright disgustingly cheerful against all odds. Ok, ok, let him. Then Cap can just work. Mars is self starting, so if they have mutual goals, we aren’t always sure how they will get done, but no matter how, it will probably be faster than expected! He could show up on his bike or a horse! As a cosmic first responder, just don’t get in his way, LOL! Mars might make a game of it and everybody plays and wins!
Oh, did I say these Sagittarian three might take you on a trip? They could make news, write up their ad/ventures, go viral! Not exactly unusual or wholly unexpected, but not average either! Keep your eyes open!
We were talking about Venus square Saturn. Also, Sun squares Chiron. Both are challenges to relationships and biz. Chiron is health, marriage, business. In Aries, Chiron too is restless, like Venus in Sagittarius the traveler. Not only is it restless, but independent! Sun in Cap likes to be the boss. Chiron always did think for himself. It takes a lot to impress him and even then, he’s still independent, though more likely to listen, LOL! Sun may put him on the spot to get those new remedies going, and Chiron wouldn’t really mind that because that’s what he wants too, soonest! May be a better time to work and do business than do forever things like marry. Take it easy and go by your heart. Check with your astrologer. Chiron in Aries
Uranus stands rather alone. Planets are moving along from him. He’s retrograde, ok in Taurus, thinking things through, letting the synapses make their connections, paving the way for further inventions. Takes the time it takes. Plenty of changes are happening around him, impinging on promising concepts. Retrograde, he is slowly reviewing what has passed, at times quickly updating here and there as further insights occur! Retrials are being done. Though it looks like he is simply sitting still, a lot is going on in that genius brain of his! Uranus in Taurus
Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years!
Neptune and Pluto know each other well. From 1900 through 2032, there is only one aspect made between Neptune and Pluto! It came within effective range in the midst of World War II during 1942. Neptune sextile Pluto has a profound and exotic history! Jamie Partridge refers to it as an ‘inter-generational’ planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032! In those years there are 49 exact aspects over three to four generations! Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. At this part of their orbits they have been traveling at speeds that have allowed them to keep the sextile aspect for 82 years! Though their last exact sextile was June 9, 1986, they have stayed in sextile, sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, until now! July 24 to Sep 15, 2026 they start exact aspects again! They make 13 additional exact aspects in this period completing the 82 years! Chart factors you have in or very close to those degrees will tap you into this sequence.
As planets travel for long times together, they become more like each other. Neptune and Pluto are both water planets (Pisces and Scorpio) and both have to do with transformation. Pluto transforms our bodies from the Kundalini up. Neptune transforms our Spirit. Pluto goes deep to cure the cause. Neptune pulls us to believe in the unseeable, our dreams. Neptune calls Pluto to compassion. Pluto says face the facts. There is the physical doctor and if the patient doesn’t believe, they can die no matter how great the Dr is. If there is no great Dr, the patient may die no matter what he believes. Truly, we need these two to work together. We/they, have been getting better at it!
This connection is more significant now because March 23, 2023 Pluto first entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. ’26 to ’32 the remaining 13 exact sextiles with Neptune happen while Neptune is in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!
You can see the potency of these planets. The harmony of the three outer planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Aquarius is the sign of the third outer planet, Uranus, the humanitarian Awakener. Neptune is the dreamer of the vastitudes, spiritual Master. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON! When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. See more about the approaching April 20, 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the three outer planets a few light years ahead!
What we don’t see in the chart is the exciting April 8 Aries New Super Moon TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE that precedes the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction! Open your Soul and live big! See more at GrandMother Moon! Eclipses, New & Full Moons, More!
Right now Pluto in Capricorn is at 29 degrees, 29 being the last degree of any sign, called the Anaretic Degree. In some ways it is considered fateful, a final point, whatever is, is. It can be the last chance, no turning back. It is also a degree of maturity, accomplishment, peak performance. There is a certain suspense wondering exactly how things will end, afraid of unknown territory, a kind of starting over with no skills, yet excited to move on. Pluto will make the shift back into Aquarius Jan 20, 2024.
Sep 1 to Nov 19 is the final time for Pluto in Capricorn, brief but super concentrated, in station at the 29th (anaretic) degree the whole time. It will be making indelible memories of skills and purposes. The other strong feature of this period is the Jupiter in Gemini sextile station with Chiron in Aries within this final review period! Healing is speeded up as final updates are incorporated, last foundations are strengthened, cemented, secured. Due to this base security, from there they are also free to loosen and quickly expand beyond immeasurably!
The three exact sextiles are Oct 12, Nov 2 and May 18 2025. Their Oct-Nov aspects are very close together. The 1° STATION starts Sep 25 and ends Nov 18, 54 days! It gives Pluto a healing send off. The sextile’s last station day is the day before Pluto enters Aquarius its final time, until 2044!
For those of you who celebrate! Gong xi fa cai! Feb 10, 2024 starts the Yang-Wood Dragon Lunar Year! Yang-Wood is connected to green, the tall trees, forest, or wooden posts – growth. The most revered animal, the magical Dragon, represents power, success, honor, luck, vigor, and charm! It is equivalent to the Western zodiac sign, Aries, leadership and independence! If your Dragon is born during the sign Aries, look it up! It’s a potent combination! In the sum number of 2024 – 8, the priority is practicality and material wealth, infinity! The year of the Wood Dragon occurs only every 60 years, last were 1904 and 1964. Famous Wood Dragons are René Lacoste, Lenny Kravitz, Sandra Bullock, Jack Ma, Keanu Reeves, Kamala Harris.
2024 will bring a plethora of advance ideas to be organized, steadfast work building dreams and visions!
BLESSED BEST IN ’24!
