Current Astro Events – July 12, 2024

Lisa E ZimmermanCosmic Consciousness Weekly

 

Written by Lisa E Zimmerman

July 12 – Pluto opposite Venus in Leo can initiate intense relationship drama around power, $$, desires and values, either via magnetic attractions, control issues, obsessions or breakthroughs, should you be seeking Self-awareness. Issues can arise that create power struggles – or greater intimacy (deeper truth).

Tread carefully and stay in integrity; manipulation and power plays create separation and trust issues, and they will come back to bite you. If you find yourself in discomfort over a Venus issue (desiring something or someone you don’t have) – you might want to explore what’s behind that, and it’s multi-layered. Venus in Leo has strong desires and wants what she wants! On a higher level, Venus-Pluto is the light of love that can raise the frequency to transform any circumstance.

July 15 – Sun square Chiron. The Sun invites you to evolve and Chiron invites you to heal, to feel any childhood issues or family matters that are calling for attention and to allow yourself the care you require. Take responsibility for the changes you need to make to soothe your heart and to let your light shine.

All weekend Mars is moving towards Uranus at 26o Taurus and you may feel the trigger that is emerging as Mars draws closer to Uranus (it will be exact on July 15), until it creates some kind of break, revolution, explosion, innovation – it can range from a physical expression in the world to a personal breakthrough in your life, but something will happen.

Mars is a warrior, while Uranus is sudden change and unpredictable – and together they are impulsive and volatile. However, they are in “no drama” Taurus that is slow, steady and fixed. It doesn’t like to be rushed and it doesn’t like change (unless it’s their idea). You may be caught off-guard in a shake up that propels you out of your comfort zone to some degree… and, as a result, you may feel destabilized or blow your stack, blurting out a truth in an unintended way.

This energy will continue through July 16, as the Scorpio Moon opposes Uranus and Mars, and events in the world will surely be reflecting this aspect as well. Watch the 3D show and keep your vibration high as you hold the Light during this precarious time of global transformation – and in your personal evolution.

One thing is certain – watch for a break wherever you feel a rut, trapped, stuck, dead, tired, lifeless – and see what shows up for you. No matter how it arrives – the shakeup is doing for you what you can’t or won’t do for yourself. And don’t anticipate anything with fear (low vibration – not helpful AT ALL). The universe is

conspiring for your Highest Good – and if you were able to take action on your own behalf, you would have done it.

July 17 – Mercury Retrograde enters its pre-Retrograde Shadow today, as it turns Retrograde from Aug 6-28. Everything that occurs from today on will be reviewed during the Retrograde period thru Sept 13 (the post-Retrograde Shadow).

July 18 – Sun sextile Uranus. You may be able to move through an issue you recognized earlier in the week (Sun square Chiron), pursuing a new solution that you hadn’t thought of before. Or maybe you are ready to explore an alternative personal style choice that you wouldn’t dare to before. This is about honoring your Authentic Self by trying things, whatever that means for you – physically, emotionally and spiritually. Find your tribe, be with your people for support!

Mercury trine Chiron. The ability to speak your truth to people who “get” you – where you feel heard and understood, where you fit in, where your thinking makes sense to others and theirs does to you – and you can freely share without fear of being judged or criticized. What a healing this is! Yes, yes, yes!

All in all, July 18 is a major healing day, when the invitation is to take a risk and Be Your Self! But don’t just do it indiscriminately – be judicious and choose wisely who to showcase new aspects of your Self with, especially if you’re going to be vulnerable by revealing parts of you that you’ve kept in hiding (if you’re the shy type). If you’re an extrovert, it’s not the same level of risk for you, assuming you’re with friendly people.

A positive welcome and reception is the ultimate gift! This is Cancer season – and that’s what you longed for as a child – to be well received, honored and appreciated. That’s what you can get now – but from your tribe. If you think this is hokey, then you really need it!

I’m sure there will be major world events this week, but I’m more focused on the personal opportunities that are available for you. If you experience any unexpected changes, focus on how they can benefit YOU. And it you need support, ask for it, find it – it is there for you.

Notice if you create drama by the way you look at the world, your life, the future and anything unplanned that you encounter. You’ll recognize drama if you go straight to panic, exaggeration, awfulizing (worst case scenario), overwhelm and telling the same negative story over and over, just to name a few things. (*I’m not speaking to trauma victims here).

The antidote for drama is faith – in life, and in trusting that you will be able to handle whatever comes your way. Yes you will!

This will be another powerful week. Make that your mission. For any challenges that arise, there is an opportunity, something is ready to be integrated within your consciousness – that’s why it’s been presented to you. When you stretch beyond your familiar world with curiosity, new possibilities will appear.

Love your Self, nourish your Self, allow yourself to receive the the love that’s available from others and All That Is. Love surrounds you. Don’t block your blessings with judgment, fear or resistance. Keep your heart soft and open. Trust the flow from the higher frequency of love – and don’t underestimate the revolution that’s happening within YOU!

“Most people don’t think that newborn children could be the Creator of their own reality, because they are not even talking yet. But the Universe is not responding to their language anyway. The Universe is responding to their vibration, and their vibration is about the way they feel.” ~ Abraham

Current Astro Events – June 28, 2024

Lisa E ZimmermanCosmic Consciousness Weekly

Written by  Lisa E Zimmerman

The coming week includes back to back Saturn and Neptune Retrograde Stations that may create a feeling of treading water, having to reassess and review recently traveled territory due to feeling stuck, confused, blocked or unclear about your direction or how to move forward. So you may feel a bit dazed and confused – or questioning where you’re meant to be going… and if so, consider this week a Cosmic Rest Stop :))

June 29 – Saturn Stations to go Retrograde until Nov 15, when you have the opportunity to course correct plans, projects or anything that is stalled, faulty, a fail or is off target and calls for restructuring or a fresh approach. Check your boundaries.

Don’t be discouraged if you suddenly realize what’s out of alignment that you hadn’t seen before; with eyes wide open, you can make needed changes or a reboot going forward, whether they are external changes or internal, or both. Sit with it this week and contemplate what might be needed to serve the Highest Good.

June 29 – Venus sextiles Mars for a creative day, with romance and sexuality lit up, but don’t invest in first dates or new partners. Easy does it, as other aspects are prohibitive and you won’t know who you’re really with yet, so give it some time before you form any conclusions if you’re doing a new partner/meeting thing.

June 29 – Mercury sextiles Uranus for lively conversation and meetings with stimulating, unusual types who are not your typical people, bringing unexpected info and/or connections. Or you may have a flash of insight that leads to an innovative path or person. No matter what, this is a mind-expanding or aha! energy that can connect you with exciting people or experiences if you get in the game. Maybe you’ll brainstorm a solution to a Saturn problem you discover on the Retrograde Station… you never know…

Welcome to July! July 2 is a busy day, with multiple celestial events occurring one on top of the next…

July 2 – Neptune Stations to Retrograde until Dec 7, as the planet of Higher Consciousness, imagination, dreams and intuition reverberates – and the invitation is to use this deeply internal time to access the portal to your rich inner world for healing, processing, dreaming and creative visioning to guide and inspire you as you traverse the 3D world.

Neptune calls your energy within to focus on your inner development, so you may have less vitality to engage in daily activities. If you need to rest, do it. Meditate. Walk in nature. Daydream. Nurture your spirit, play with animals and children or whatever soothes your spirit. Dance, listen to music, watch movies, see or make art, read, help people in need. Neptune is the planet of Oneness.

In the Higher Dimensions, ALL are ONE. What a world it would be if we practiced this in 3D. You can do your part by connecting with others – by seeing them, talking to them, appreciating them. They will be open to you because they will feel that it’s genuine. This is how we recreate the world, with Divine Love.

July 2 – Mercury trine Neptune is highly creative, intuitive, spiritual energy, good for metaphysical pursuits, writing, storytelling, dance, channeling and connecting with exquisite sensitivity. The Neptune Station will enhance your creative, intuitive and spiritual activities, giving them even greater impact. Even fantasyland is your imagination at work, rehearsal to be utilized in some divine way!

July 2 – 25. Mercury enters showy Leo – and is a very different communicator and thinker than it was in tentative Cancer, much more bold and entertaining. See if you notice people being more outspoken, seeking the spotlight. We certainly can use the entertainment, so take a risk, speak up and engage your playful side. Explore this aspect of your Self – what do you have to say?

July 2 – Venus trine Saturn is warm, stable and committed, which is something you can count on in the midst of the watery Neptune energy. This can be a promise, a contract, an agreement or a date, but it’s rock solid and it’s something of value that fills your heart or maybe has $$ value. Good for shopping and creative projects (bringing beauty into form). No matter what, you can take this to the bank (pun intended :)).

July 3 – Mercury opposes Pluto after it enters Leo, with Pluto at 1o Aquarius creating a possible power struggle, a negotiation, persuasion or deep dive for information (think CSI). Whatever the case, be mindful of your words and attitude today, as Pluto can push or pressure to get its way and Mercury in Leo can be offended if it feels disrespected.

If it’s just you, you can obsessively seek info to satisfy your curiosity or find an answer to a question. Or maybe you have a breakthrough if you’re doing healing work. This can also indicate propaganda, mind control or conspiracy theories, which are all commonplace today.

4th of July – Fireworks!🎇
July 5 – The New Moon in Cancer @ 3:57pm PDT. (next week’s newsletter)

Know that all week we moving through two major planetary Stations (Saturn and Neptune), both in nebulous Pisces that are at a standstill and we are in the dark of the Moon. Use this time to commune with yourself at a deep level for rest, open to messages from above and journal or express yourself should you feel called to do so. You may be amazed at what comes through you!

What you experience this week will create the foundation for your New Moon Intentions next week.

I AM integrating old patterns that no longer serve me. I AM leaving the past behind and living in the Now.

All is in Divine Order, no matter what things look like or where you think you should be. You have no idea what’s about to happen and what the big picture is, so don’t judge. If you need help, get it. Align with your Higher Self (or Inner Guidance) which is never fear-based and do the next right thing.

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” ~ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

“Don’t push the river, it flows by itself.” ~ Chinese proverb

“You are a unique way that love, beauty and Divine Intelligence are happening on this planet right now.” ~ Rev. Michael Beckwith

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

Current Astro Events – June 21, 2024

Lisa E ZimmermanCosmic Consciousness Weekly

Written by Lisa E Zimmerman

Following yesterday’s Solstice we have the first of two Full Moons in Capricorn at 1o and 29o Capricorn today and on July 21. The Full Moon brings things to light and is the culmination of events as the energy builds for this rare, double light show of Solstice-Full Moon illumination. Notice what comes up for you and the messages you receive as you pay attention and “do the right thing.”

June 21 – Full Moon at 1o Capricorn @ 6:08pm PDT. Capricorn rules achievement, responsibility, discipline, deferring pleasure to do what’s necessary, long term goals, methodical plans and success. The slogan, “Just do it,” is Capricorn – and with Pluto making its final pass in Capricorn this fall, the emphasis is on cleaning up any non-working structures and patterns in your life, so consider this a check-in.

Where are you now in relation to your worldly goals? Is your personal and professional life in balance? Capricorn is the Lord of Karma (you get back what you put out) or the Great Teacher/Guru. Your productivity is rewarded, but it’s important to have clear intentions and goals or you’ll direct your efforts towards things that aren’t truly aligned with your authentic desires or soul’s path.

Capricorn represents your authority in the world, as well as your Inner Authority. No matter what your worldly position is, do you trust yourself – or do you need others’ approval or agreement to feel comfortable with your decisions?

The Cancer Sun is focused on your personal life – home, family, care, your lineage (roots), the past and your feelings about them all. Your private world is your foundation; first, growing up and then, how you are nourished and feel safe within and behind the scenes. No matter how you look to the outside world, the “real real” is how you feel on the inside.

With the Sun, Venus and Mercury all in emotional Cancer, and with Mercury sextile Mars, it’s time to speak up about your needs and direct your energy toward anything that needs attention for your well being. If something is missing or if you’re overwhelmed, you will feel it. This is so much about what fills your

page1image26693280

heart, where you belong, care and emotional connections (another major Cancer theme).

Neptune squares the Full Moon, which can be useful if you tap into your Inner Guidance, dreams and visions for inspiration, like a GPS to call you forward. However, if you are very linear or don’t feel your inner/spiritual world, the Neptune square can create confusion, doubt, illusions or you may feel lost, which can drain your energy and confidence. Don’t make decisions from this place, but get support if needed to help you gain clarity about what is real for you – and know, this too shall pass… but don’t judge yourself!

Have compassion for your heavy reliance on your practical, left brain indoctrination that helps you feel safe by giving you data and evidence (proof). Learning how to access your intuition and Higher Self Guidance is a skill that can be learned, but not with a dominant, analytical busy mind. Find a teacher if you want to develop this aspect of yourself. It will change your life and expand your world!

June 26 – Mercury trine Saturn. When Mercury meets serious Saturn it is fertile ground for plans, decisions and commitments, to sign contracts, create schedules or a begin projects that have long-term effects. This is a powerful day for a solid beginning. Make the most of it.

This week has only a few major aspects, but what’s present serves discernment and decision-making. Self-care is primary and rituals that nurture you should be considered acts of love that benefit your health and well being.

The mystery of unfoldment is the magic of life. Allow it to be so for you. Wherever you are rigid, soften your edges and ground into the earth for stability. Know that All Is Well on a Higher level, no matter what it looks like in 3D and keep going.

“When I Am in my peace and I Am in my light, I Am hopeful, decisive and balanced.” ~ Christopher Maher

“Within me lies an extraordinary radiance, and I commit to letting my Light loose in the world.” ~ Jan Phillips

“Human nature has been sold short … they a higher nature which includes the need for meaningful work, for responsibility, for creativeness, for being

fair and just, for doing what is worthwhile and for preferring to do it well.” ~ Abraham Maslow

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.

Current Astro Events – June 14, 2024

Lisa E ZimmermanCosmic Consciousness Weekly

Written by Lisa E Zimmerman

Although it’s the final week of the Sun in Gemini, this is a Neptunian week with the nonlinear planet of dreams, imagination and intuition at 29Âş Pisces, working on your behalf, inspiring creative visions or missions of service that call you forward – or delusions that feel very real and lead you astray or escapism via addictions.

Neptune is also at work dissolving old ego structures that no longer serve you, which can leave you feeling uncertain about where you’re going. However, this is also an opening, allowing for newness to enter, even if you can’t see it yet or don’t know what it is. Endings and beginnings… 29Âş Pisces, preparing for 0Âş Aries in March 2025 – a major new beginning is on the way, even if it’s in slo-mo…

June 14 – Mercury is cazimi the Sun. Mercury in its home sign of Gemini and conjoined the Sun is a double blessing, indicating the potential for bright ideas, profound insights, wisdom or epiphanies, as well as social connections, fortuitous meetings or brilliant visions that serve your future. Magic is in the air when Mercury is in the heart of the Sun, accessing its light and its wisdom – and this can indicate the birth of a new idea or direction going forward.

June 16 – Venus square Neptune is the soft, creative, romantic, idyllic feeling of beauty, bliss, a spiritual experience or disillusionment, disappointment or deception. Either high or low, it all depends on who you are and what you do with it. Not good for a first date (you may be misled), but beautiful for spiritual practice and artistic endeavors. Adjust expectations of others, offer universal love without conditions and stay high.

Then Venus enters Cancer, that loves family, food, home, feelings and is protective of those they love. Venus in Cancer is nurturing and caring, giving quality attention to everyone it cares about and favors the past, is sentimental, loves sharing memories and enjoys celebrating birthdays and anniversaries.

June 17 – This is an amazing day for connecting with another or others that you want to be close to in an emotional, feeling way. Especially if it’s creative – and it’s a fabulous day for visioning, brainstorming, creating and allowing yourself to drop into your heart and expand your consciousness beyond the confines of your left-brained mental body.

Mercury square Neptune is creative ideas, right-brained, nonlinear intuitive thinking that can guide you forward. You can make deep non-verbal connections and channel downloads from your Higher Self and whatever you make contact with. Left-brain activities are not favored (numbers, data, scheduling), as you can easily miss things, so save that for another day or double, double-check info.

Then Mercury enters Cancer and is focused on expressing feelings gently, is compassionate, caring and loves family, home, food and connecting heart to heart. Mercury in Cancer is never confrontational and is not direct, either. It will take the roundabout approach to warm up before asking for something or making a move – going sideways, like a crab :))

Next, Mercury conjoins Venus, bringing a sweetness, caring and connection that is a gift for showering blessings and good intentions on anyone verbally and/or non-verbally due to the warm Cancer energy that is undeniable. It is heart-centered and deeply caring, as you go over into the other’s world in order to align with them and connect in a real way. Give someone a gift today (and yourself) – share your heart and make a bond that resonates beyond 3D. 

June 20 – Sun square Neptune offers you yet another opportunity to experience yourself beyond the usual, expanding into a higher, nonlinear vision of your Self without the usual constraints of who you “think” you are. Dream, meditate, take a walk, a bath, go for a swim, a float – and let your mind quiet down and imagine who and what you might be and do… Old walls are coming down, even if you aren’t aware, any confusion or doubt is an indication of such. Have faith that the universe is working on your behalf to free you from the old stories that have held you captive so you can embody a new story that’s already unfolding behind the scenes…

Sun in Cancer / Summer Solstice @ 1:51pm PDT. When the Sun enters Cancer you honor your mother, your lineage, family, home (your nest), your emotional needs and how you get them met, feelings of vulnerability, emotional safety, food, tradition, nurturing and being nurtured.  

This is the ultra-sensitive sign that is focused on your personal life and getting your needs met. Cancer is the nurturer-caretaker, often with a compulsion to focus on and do for others and you need to make sure you are balanced. Are you neglecting your emotional needs for giving or receiving? If so, how can you take better care of yourself? Cancer is the sign of the mother and it is a spiritual practice to *mother* yourself in a loving way. Your well being is necessary for you to move forward with maximum potential! 

I wish you a week of discovery and connection that brings you deep fulfillment and heart-centered experiences that lead you to places you couldn’t have anticipated in advance. The mystery of the unfoldment is the magic of life. Allow it to be so for you. Wherever you are rigid, soften your edges and relax. Go to the water and let it work on you as Cancer season arrives and Neptune carries the message of the sea.  

“In order to escape from prison, one must first understand that one is in prison.” ~ Gurdjieff

 

“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface, but connected on the deep.” ~ William James

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
