Will History Repeat Itself?

  Do you remember the events of  April of 2010?  There was an oil spill in the gulf and it presented a disaster.  There were many things that happened from the loss of sea creatures to the coast dying a slow death,  as if a black magic marker had outlined the  region.  Once again, things are setting themselves up for something to take place that is similar to that event.  We can only hope that we have learned from our past so that history will not repeat itself. At that time there seemed to be tragedy everywhere and  many creatures died.   If you remember it was a terrible time and many people wept as they saw the news.   There were several attempts to cap the oil so that it would not continue to spill over.  Let us hope that the event will never happen again.

Astrology also depicts history .  You can go back hundreds of years and find similarities of events because of the transits of planets.  An ephemeris would help greatly along with a good history book of facts.

With the sun in Pisces, it is a time for looking to the future with positive hope and realizing that compassion is something that people should have in their lives.  Compassion is a human emotion that is important for all to have and especially for animals.  How can you not have it for every living thing on this earth.

Solar Eclipse May 20, 2012 7:23 PM

This particular Solar Eclipse will have to do with partnerships and how we  get along as a people within our nation.  A solar eclipse has the sun and moon conjunction and they are working together toward a new beginning.   They are both in Gemini so there is a push for communication and working together.  Although  Venus goes retrograde, it is also a time for people to find out what is important for soul growth.  Reflection is something that needs to happen.  Individuals will have to think for themselves and not rely on others to tell them what to do.  Everyone has to pull their own weight.

Things have been promised and people shook hands on these promises. Much has been taken in good faith.  Others did not intend to be good on their word.   There is anger and people want to have their voices heard because of the betrayal.

There will be surprises and arguments in the way that people perceive authority figures.  Things will not be swept under the rug.   The Scorpio ascendant is showing that it this is the time to roll up the sleeves and prepare for hard work. No one is exempt from this although they may think differently.  The North Node at 5 Sagittarius and the South Node at 5 Gemini  is a short distance from the eclipse degree.  Things are pointing to integrity in all situations and people are not willing to settle.

There will be events during the year that will lead to a gentleman’s agreement and taking people for their word.  Watch the politicians shake hands on the news and their fingers crossed behind their backs.  The individuals that are not as good as their word will fall to the wayside and will lose their positions.  It is like a fall from grace.  I  think that those who have tried to avoid it will have to face the music because there is no escaping.  Deeds that have not been honorable will surface and there will be trials and court proceedings.

Surprises will come to those who may not expect it or they may not expect getting caught.  Either way, surprises will be coming from all directions.  The events from this eclipse will be watched very closely for the November elections.  The early bird catches the worm and the worm turns when it senses danger.  One can not be wishy-washy when it comes to making a decision.  A worm has to be stronger than that.  Do you know any?

May 20th is a wonderful time for communication because of  the Gemini Sun-Moon connection both in 0 Gemini.  You will hear many things but will need to decide for yourself if it is for the good of all or a few.

Mercury’s conjunction with Jupiter is a very good thing to occur.  It is a good time for being productive and completing the tasks that you consider to be for the highest good of all and pursuing and accomplishing the tasks.  Utilize the week of May 20th for getting those great ideas to the boss and make sure that you keep your great ideas to yourself.  Don’t share them with anyone else unless you know that you can trust them.  Everyone wants to get to the top.  Make sure you do it the right way.

Taurus New Moon on April 21

Since the beginning of April most events have been exciting and fast paced.  Reflecting over the last few weeks you will find that it has gone faster than a locomotive.

There have been legal papers that were thrown into the mix, but events were handled at the right time and place.  Also, there were situations that should have been taken care of years ago but landed up in  court.  No matter what happened, karma has taken over.   “What goes around comes around.”

Now, take a deep breath because you are about to get ready for the last of April and the first part of May.  You will have the ability to push forward with a new found energy and nothing will stop you.  You have dodged bullets, went through mazes and met challenges at every turn.  You passed the test and now you will find yourself picking up on a different frequency. You intuition will be stronger and you have earned the golden ticket. Think of the competition and what you accomplished.  You will have surprises but you will be expecting most of them.  These surprises will come from other people and you called it.

Try for that job that you didn’t get because the person that got it is off doing something else.  As fate would have it, you will be able to complete your chosen course and go on with your plans that you had back in February.

During this week of April 22nd, be careful of Mercury squaring Pluto because there could be some unkind words within communication that would be sharp.  After it is said, you can’t take it back.  It can be  too late.

If you are not sure about the planets and their meanings just think about your high school mythology class and that within itself is a good beginning.  Make the right decisions and know that your angel coach is always watching.  Don’t be so hard on yourself this week because you have been through a lot.  It seems like the drama will be around for a little while.   You will not need to worry about it!

Power Struggles…………..but Side Step the Drama

This is a fortunate week and you will find some lessons to be learned.  It is not the time to “kill the messenger,” but learn the lesson.  There are some positive lessons to be had as well as giving up the items that are not worth fighting for. Sometimes you just have to let it go.  That is hard for some individuals because of their own issues.  Many have a flair for the dramatic but you can’t look to the theatre all the time.  Most actors have different scripts to read.   Individuals may feel that they need to argue and fight with people in authority and may feel that it is their mission but it is the dramatic issue.

There are things coming up within the next few weeks that will give rise to opportunities and they may take another look at what is going on.  Check on that communication that needs to be revisited. Watch what you say and how you say it.  It still counts on how it all comes together.

Remember back in February and early March there were  things that cautioned the communication issues.  Something that you felt was a done deal could opened up again.  Check it out! If you were frequenting the want adds, continue and  don’t give up because that situation has changed.  Be proactive!

It is a  month to keep a close watch  because there are issues from 2010 that could possibly repeat themselves.  There were situations not dealt with that particular year.  Things have been silent for quite a while and they were swept under the rug.  It will now have to be dealt with  two years later.

Things are not always negative and it is important to remember this.  There are wonderful things that happen all of the time but you have to look for it.  Is the glass half empty or half full? Perception is everything.  People will judge you because of your skills and your ability to cope with life and it’s surprises.

Look for your opportunities.  That job that you did not get a couple of months ago will come open again.  The person hired did not work out and so your chances look good.  Don’t give up just because it looks like it is a done deal.  It is never a done deal and these opportunities are always changing.  This is the time to reapply and take another chance on something that could now work for you.  Always be aware of everything around you and your own intuition will increase.  Timing is everything.  Look to the moon for your timing.

Once you look at the situation and get rid of the drama,  you will find there is “much to do about nothing.”

It Comes in Threes!

Mercury goes retrograde on Monday.   You need to be careful when buying, signing, and communicating.  Also, a retrograde position refers to the way we think.  Since Mercury rules communication, it is important for us to use meta-cognition in a positive way. Think about the way you think!

When it comes to appliances, they can stop working at the same time!  You could have needed replacements anyway.  Watch your purse strings and look for the sales.  They are out there.  Everyone is experiencing this at the same time you are.  It is how you handle it that makes the difference with the outcome.

Mercury retrogrades in the sign of Aries and this is a time for us to regroup and look at what we have accomplished.  Don’t minimize your efforts because they are noteworthy of  attention.  You may have to wait a few weeks or months for the recognition.  Watch for September and October for your long deserved praise.

It goes direct or forward on the April 4, 2012 in peaceful Pisces.  Pisces is the sign of compassion and love for all.  This is a time for us to look around and see if we have “paid it forward” and random acts of kindness still count in this world.  Harsh words and ugly manners will continue to get you nowhere.  You can eventually fall or get the boot.

At times,  you have to wonder  because it appears to be on every channel.  Ponder this………..television, radio commercials, programs, and news will flash this information everywhere.  Satellite dishes bounce things all over the earth.  Doesn’t this make you wonder about the position that you are in and that our world is in?  Don’t buy into negativity because that is not a  good sale.

With the trio of planetary conditions of Mars, Uranus, and Pluto  this week, it would be very beneficial for us to consider the fire signs and how aggressive we can be with our actions.

*think about the way you appear to others

*look at the way you are thinking

*check out your consciousness

*making the correct decision will increase your awareness and intuition

*be aware of toxic personalities that drain you, pull away if necessary

*take your power back

*it becomes mass consciousness when everyone does it

Mars….Saturn………….and You!


With Mars coming to an opposition of Saturn within the next few days, it is wise to curb your temper and think first before you react.  Patience is necessary so be advised to watch your emails and phone calls.

I cautioned you a few weeks ago that communication would be important because once said, you can’t take it back.  Well, that time is finally here.  Have your lines ready because you will definitely be on stage.   There is nothing worse than being there and not knowing your lines.  So rehearse them well!

This is a good time to prepare for the early part of March.  There are more things coming in the advancement in technology.  It is always improving.  The best phone will keep getting better, the top of the line laptop will outdo itself,  and it will be hard to stay head of the game. Humans are the real thinkers here, they make the machines.

It is also beneficial for everyone to think about who needs TLC.  It is each individual! Everyone is scrambling to do their best because they don’t want to lose their job.  They want to outdo their last performance review and outdo anyone else who happens to be around.  Taking time for oneself is what is really important.  If it is going to a spa, taking that retreat, or taking a mental health day, you will find that it is just as useful to take care of your inner workings.  This is going to aid in your perspective of everything.

Take time to plan for yourself.  Make a list of things that you want to do and need to do for yourself.  Everyone else is doing the same so you won’t be missing out.  You owe it to yourself to heal whatever needs to heal.  You are making spiritual progress and taking time to yourself is just what the doctor ordered.  You will notice that others will be taking mysterious “sick” days and this will be necessary before burnout sets in.

Right before spring arrives, it is a difficult time for everyone.  It is a birthing in nature that brings new things from the  “winter hiding”.  Coming from “winter’s grip” to “springs freedom” is a difficult journey but it needs passage.

Be proactive and take care of these things before you lose control.  Use the Mars, Saturn, opposition in your favor and learn the lessons that come with the aspect.  Utilize this time for the scaffolding and prepare for any surprising details that could come along.  They always do!

Sun goes into Pisces

With the planets placed in areas of change, transformation and soul development, this week is just as important. With the Sun, processing into “dreamy” Pisces and leaving “cool and calculating” Aquarius, there is still time to dream of things to come.

The New Moon dashes in on Tuesday, (Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday)  and it is a time for new beginnings.  Use this time for going within and finding ways to bring things to fruition.  Breaking bad habits and looking at novel ideas will lead to your “new day.”

If you were in a bad relationship or anything that has not been for your highest good, you may need to consider breaking away as opposed to letting things go on which would lead to more hurt and confusion.

This is a time to look at the patterns in your life and try to figure out where you are losing your power.  If there is someone who has tried to take your good away, made you feel that you are not worth anything, it is no longer acceptable.  With this being a spiritual awakening, it is time for you to think about what has happened to you within the last several years. You are moving away from a long slumber and you are coming into consciousness.

Consider this your “ah ha moment.” Are you at a place that makes you feel comfortable or do you feel forced into something that is not right for you?  Neptune and the Sun together, have a way of presenting a spiritual “looking glass” that not only shows your reflection, but also what is behind you.

There are events that have happened in the past and it is possible that you are now able to connect the dots. You will want to do something that is more positive for you.  You will find that you have the ability to move forward and do things that will bring you to your point of departure. These are new and exciting things for you because it is now your  time to shine! You have lots of creativity and now is the time to use it.  Do not hold back!

The moon is the timer and when the universal clock gives you the go ahead to complete a task you will know that the time is right.  When it is supposed to happen, nothing can keep it from happening.  When it is not supposed to happen, you can stand on your head and it never will happen.

Those born around February 19  to mid March will find themselves holding the looking glass. This is the time for lots of emotional work.  You will be able to dive in and find the solutions that are necessary for your spiritual growth and it will stretch you beyond your comfort zone.   You have to do this so that you will realize your own worth!  Much is coming your way and karma has a way of showing up and bringing things out. This could go back as far as 25 years ago.

Time shows no mercy for the things that need to be revealed.  Secrets are out!   People who have been unfair will find that time has caught up with them and the shoe is on the other foot.  Pay backs are tough.  What goes around comes around.  This is a universal truth.

The New Moon brings a wholeness to those who need to see it.  If you did not get that job for one reason or another, keep trying because this may be your time to shine.  Do not give up because it looks like your dreams could come true.
