The deconstruction in the 3D world continues at maximum intensity. Hang in there and keep the faith, as you volunteered to be here during this time to hold the Light. Fear doesn’t help anyone. Stay high and remember the truth of who you are and what is real.

Oct 28 – As you enter into the Lunar Eclipse, what must you anchor in – and let go of – in order to stabilize yourself to move forward? A Lunar Eclipse is generally about completions or endings, but this one feels like a rebalancing energy, with a
Jupiter bridge as a vision for your future, here to help you grow.

The Moon is in Taurus, sign of practical earth, values and stability, ruled by Venus: love, $$ and how you value your Self. Take this to heart, as you focus on what needs attention to support your security and well being. Get your life in
order, so you are prepared for your future. 

The Sun is in Scorpio, sign of transformation – deep introspection, CSI discoveries and releases that can free you from old programming and patterns. This is also the sign of joint finances, loans, taxes and $$ owed. Time to clean this up (or make a plan), if it hasn’t been handled already.

 The Moon conjoins Jupiter  opposing Mars, activating ambition, inviting you to stretch toward a dream or goal that inspires you – or it can tempt you to overindulge in a vice that feels good, but gets you nowhere and you pay a price later. Because the Moon is conjunct the North Node in Aries, you are called to step into a path that enhances your sense of Self and evolves your Inner Authority. You always have a choice. Do you want to awaken or go back to sleep? That’s your decision.

Jupiter opposes Mercury, giving you lots of bright ideas or you may say yes to too many people and things, making promises you regret later. Don’t get scattered. Jupiter opposite Mercury can open your mind to a bigger picture if you utilize it deliberately, but it can lead you astray if you let it run wild. Don’t squander this opportune energy for visioning from an expanded perspective.

Oct 29 – Mercury conjunct Mars opposing Jupiter. This is perfect for planning and connecting. What, when, where and with whom? Use it consciously to create a path forward and for productive conversations to move from point A to point B.
Clarity, focus and concise decisions. Yes, no, yes, no. You will be clear. If you’re not clear, go back. Get clear. Like a flow chart…

Oct 31 – Venus trine Uranus. Perfectly timed, this falls on Halloween, so have fun dressing up in costume if that is your thing and otherwise, do something different to liven up your life. Uranus want change and a little excitement or stimulation to
break up stagnant energies. This is a pleasant pattern disruptor as a free-spirit or creative way. Have fun with it!

Eclipses often create turning points – in the world – and sometimes personally. As always with an Eclipse, anything that is meant to be (fated events) will happen, so be as positive as possible, because we don’t know what the big picture is or
how it will unfold. New info can come to light and reveal things that change the picture for you. Stay tuned…

Focus on your vision for yourself – what to release, what to strengthen and where you’re ready for a stretch. Is there an opportunity in front of you? That’s a Jupiter thing, so pay attention and feel into what’s right for you. Go within for your
answer and trust your Inner Guidance. Others may have an opinion, but only you can feel when it’s a “yes” for you.

This is a powerful time for self-inquiry and contemplation, as we approach the Lunar Eclipse. Your job is to maintain a spiritual practice that helps you remember who you are and gives you a quiet space to commune with your Inner Guidance. Take good care and easy does it.

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

Current Astro Events – October 20, 2023

Written by Lisa E Zimmerman

The crescendo of chaos, violence and destruction in the world continues as we move through the wormhole approaching the Lunar Eclipse on Oct 28. This reflects cosmic activity designed to deconstruct existing paradigms that are obsolete, to make way for innovative solutions, inspired ideas and ultimately, a new Aquarian world – but it won’t be soon. It will take a considerable period of time for the dismantling, the rebuilding and for the world we dream of to become a reality.

For more detailed info about the cause of the chaos, see last week’s blog post: click here.

Oct 20 – Sun-Mercury Cazimi – with the Sun and Mercury so close, you may get an insight, an aha!, helpful info that gives you direction or clarifies something for you. Pay attention to signs, info, messages you receive on all levels today, verbal and non-verbal. Don’t miss what’s available for you!

Later on Oct 20 – Mercury square Pluto – you may be faced with a problem, a hard conversation, a deep conflict or info that’s been hidden. Mercury square Pluto is CSI – it will dig deep to find the real story. Secrets may be revealed that are game-changers, but at least you will know the truth. This is powerful energy for healing and breakthroughs. Use it proactively if possible. Good for Self-reflection, journaling, exploration if you’re ready to get real and may be something you need to release in order to move forward.

Oct 21 – Sun square Pluto – You may encounter a power struggle or a situation in which you are bullied or you give your power away. Control issues are initially about emotional safety, but they become habits and are detrimental as a way of life. When you’re in your power, you can manifest what you desire – you don’t have to control others in order to do so. Again, perfect energy for healing and breakthroughs when you are ready to evolve and grow. This can indicate something you need to release – a behavior, a thought pattern, a belief that is not serving you relating to power / powerlessness.

Oct 22 – Big day, three astro events. Two aspects, one sign change. Venus trine Jupiter = gifts and blessings in earth signs (Virgo and Taurus), dealing with the physical world – nurturing your body, eating well, upgrading your self-care, having a massage, facial, showing love by sharing practical gifts to enhance your (or another’s) well being.

Oct 22 – Nov 10. Mercury in Scorpio – is CSI all the time, wanting to see what is REAL. The detective, intense, direct, covert, all or nothing – Mercury in Scorpio loves to learn the secrets of others while hiding its own. Not into small talk – it wants to go deep. And verbal communication is only part of the story, as the intuitive read is just as important – and nobody is better than Scorpio at reading others, as they use this gift to feel safe, reading the room.

Mercury trine Saturn – This supports grounding any info or insights you gained when the Mercury was Cazimi the Sun or squaring Pluto. This can help you stabilize and integrate any new info and changes that have occurred to evolve your consciousness. This is also good for making plans, vows (to yourself) and decisions regarding your future, which is grounding.

Oct 23 – Sun in Scorpio – The Sun leaves harmonious, other-oriented Libra to enter intense Scorpio, sign
of what’s hidden, transformation, death and rebirth, issues around power and the underworld. Scorpio is
like an iceberg – what you see is the tip, but the real story is hidden underneath; it is private, guarded,
defended and will be in control of every situation that is unfamiliar, if possible. This is the sign of the
healer, therapist, banker, medium, detective, CIA and researcher. Transformation: the death of the False
Self and the birth of the Authentic Self; two lives in one lifetime. Amazing, the power of the Phoenix
Rising!

Oct 24 – Sun trine Saturn – Another stabilizing aspect, supporting you in laying the framework for the
future by making decisions, setting boundaries and knowing what feels right for you. Feel where you’re
being called and what is needed to further your efforts. Practical actions and work goes to building structures that will support your future. You will know what that is – and this is the time for action while the
energy is aligned for you.

We are going into the deep, with the Sun, Mercury and Mars in Scorpio, which will give you tremendous
power to attune to your Inner Guidance, feel what is out of alignment for you and release what needs to
go. What needs to be addressed in order for your Evolving Self to live well?

This is a powerful time for self-inquiry and contemplation, as we approach the Lunar Eclipse. Your job is
to maintain a spiritual practice that helps you remember who you are and gives you a quiet space to
commune with your Inner Guidance. Take good care and easy does it.

“Consider the trees that allow the birds to perch and fly away without either inviting them to stay
or desiring them never to depart. If your heart can be like this, you will be near to the Way.” ~ Zen
proverb

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

WSU astronomer: Don't miss Saturday's 'ring of fire' solar eclipse | WSU Insider | Washington State University

Written by: Lisa E Zimmerman

The escalating chaos and destruction in the world is being generated by a perfect storm of various elements, all active and combustible, with a profound cosmic agenda: to facilitate the ongoing upheaval, dismantling and clearing of old power structures and reference points that are no longer relevant, led by Pluto Stationing Direct as it completes its 250-year U.S. Return in Capricorn while squaring the Nodes of Fate in Aries/Libra (you vs. relationships). 

This is all taking place in the Eclipse wormhole (a short distance between different realities), as fated events can happen and emotions run high, which calls for special care to regulate your mind, emotions, body and nervous system. Spiritual practices and rituals are your best path forward during this time, using all that nurtures you, feeds your spirit, lifts you up and directs your attention with intention. 

Oct 14 – Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse @ 21º Libra 10:55am PDT. A Solar Eclipse is a dramatic New Moon (new beginning) with exponential power – and often a turning point, activating the unexpected to shift circumstances. It can alter your life in an instant – and if it does, go with it, whether you understand what’s happening or not. There are higher forces at work, guiding your path. Or you may feel like nothing is happening for you personally. Maybe or maybe not, but sometimes, you can only see the effects of an Eclipse in retrospect, so stay tuned. 

The Libra Solar Eclipse is on the South Node (the past), inviting needed course corrections in relationships and how you relate to others. The South Node refers to what is shaky or weak in you and
will reveal itself, whether it’s a pattern of behavior or connections that have reached their expiration date.  Look for and release any patterns of Self-abandonment to please others, to keep the peace or be “nice” no matter what, as a conscious inquiry. You have a right to your own choices, opinions and convictions and if you suppress them, you are not in truth or your power. Also, you can focus on developing your negotiating skills or create strategic alliances as a higher expression of Libra and a way to be in truth. There are practical avenues to pursue if you need support.

The North Node of Destiny is in Aries – warrior, maverick, pioneer, asking you to boldly come out of hiding and go for what you want now – or next. If you don’t know (and a lot of people don’t), let that be your mission – to discover what’s next for You. Speak your truth, explore and follow your intuition without permission, approval or agreement. Try things, see how you feel. Learn through experience what works for you and what doesn’t. Wherever you have denied yourself, this is the space for your research and development. It’s time for the focus to be on YOU. 

Eris (a dwarf planet) is sitting on the North Node. Eris is a disruptor, a female warrior and an Awakener, who is in the middle of the Eclipse, here to challenge the power dynamics and to stir up trouble. There are major war planets activated already (that’s why the world looks the way it does), and this is meant to bring up everything that has been suppressed, repressed, hidden, denied, where we’ve become blind, deaf, dumb and numb – programmed. It’s not pretty, but it’s necessary if we’re ever to wake up and truly evolve to create the world we dream of.

Guidance: find ways to love and honor your Self. If turbulent emotions come up during this intense time, seek appropriate care. Know that the antidote for anger is getting your needs met; determine what you need – then do your best to have your needs fulfilled. YOU are your job and YOU are important.  We will be feeling the Eclipse energy all week, along with various other aspects that will likely instigate reactions from misunderstandings and unclear info. This is not the week for major life decisions if you can help it, but rather, tune in for spiritual guidance or do creative work. Be slow and gentle to stabilize yourself. 

Use this Eclipse energy for rebalancing and to release anything that diminishes you, but remember to be spacious with yourself and others, as everyone is in this container of multi-layered edgy cosmic tension, aggression and confusion. 

With Eclipses we never really know what will happen, so take good care and focus on being a good human, from your heart and soul. Do unto others… and stay high enough that you can see the big
picture. 

We are in a protracted ending and new beginning as Pluto leaves Capricorn and enters Aquarius, going back and forth over the next thirteen months, so we have to develop patience as we birth the new world and are being prepared for our next level of evolution. 

“Right now the world is in calamity because it is preparing for a quantum leap into another vibrational dimension. Your role is to not be on the left or the right, to be the this or the that. Your
role is to step back far enough, to see the whole process, and to stand in the feeling tone of Oneness.” – Rev. Michael Beckwith

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

Current Astro Events- October 7, 2023

Lisa E ZimmermanCosmic Consciousness Weekly

By Lisa E Zimmerman

We continue to move through the wormhole (a short distance between different realities) in the week preceding the Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse in Libra, coming on Oct 14. We are also in the Pluto Station, a transformational week that can test your nervous system, beliefs and determination, as Pluto activates power dynamics while completing the U.S. Pluto Return.

Oct 6 – Venus quincunx Pluto. This doesn’t last long but it can be uncomfortable. It can activate an obsessive need for attention, $$, your desires may be in overdrive or it can trigger compulsive attractions, jealousy or control. As always with Pluto, the potential for healing is always available if you are willing to do the work, so if something comes up, get help to seek a breakthrough. You can get free and change your life.

Oct 8 – Mars square Pluto. Pluto is at maximum strength while Stationing and squaring touchy Mars, it may be alternately pressuring or confronting you with turbulent feelings or issues you want to avoid, creating a combustible energy. If you can make these planets work together for you, you can move mountains and accomplish great tasks. If anger is stirred up, focus on your needs and what is missing – that’s the direction to go in for healing. There is information available in any pain you experience and you can use it for your growth and healing.

 

Later on Oct 8, Venus enters Virgo. After being in Leo since June 5 and being Retrograde from July 27-Sep 3, it’s a big shift for the planet of love and values to go from Self-centered, creative Leo into humble, service-oriented Virgo for the next month. The Venus Retrograde reoriented values for many and now you can recreate your relationships in ways that are more supportive for you.

Venus in Virgo focuses on practical details, being in service to their partner as an expression of love. Also, Venus in Virgo is more conservative with $$, Venus in Virgo artists are great craftsmen/women, more mental and focused (Mercury-ruled), than flamboyant. Venus in Virgo loves a clean, organized home and they are likely health conscious.

Oct 9 – Venus opposition Saturn. It feels like you can’t have what you want right now. Venus is your desires, while Saturn is work, restriction, delays. A Venus-Saturn opposition feels like you have to decide who and what is really important and eliminate superfluous things that you can’t afford or that drain your time or energy in order to have what you want later. This can be a frustration or a feeling of rejection, but because it’s coming on top of the Pluto Station, it’s one more thing that’s not fun.

 

Oct 10 – Pluto Stations Direct. Pluto turns Direct and moves forward as it continues through the final degrees of Capricorn.

Oct 12 – Nov 25. Mars in Scorpio. This is a home sign for Mars and it can easily express itself here, as Mars in Scorpio will accomplish its goals. It will go after what it wants and get it, one way or the other. Mars in Scorpio is a signature of many super athletes, and also Taylor Swift (to use a chart of someone in the news who makes things happen!).

This brings us to the precipice of the Solar Eclipse on Sat, Oct 14 @ 10:55am PDT. There’s a lot of dynamic energy this week and depending on your chart and planetary placements, it will be either more or less intense for you personally.

Whatever occurs this week is preparing you for the new beginning that is coming the following week as you are being led forward. Pluto is still squaring the North Node in Aries and South Node in Libra and will be clearing anything that’s blocking you from your Highest Good. Watch the show. This is for you!

“In order to make a quantum leap you must be willing to tolerate ambiguity, confusion, possibly even chaos for a while, shaping your game plan as you go. Allow some disorder in your life.” ~ Price Pritchett
As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
