Personally, this week has revolved around two major
astrological aspects for me: Mars stationing direct in 9 degrees of Libra on
May 19th and the Grand Water Trines involving initially the moon in Pisces,
Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Scorpio on May 22nd and the upcoming
grand trine on May 24th involving Chiron in Pisces, Jupiter in Cancer and
Saturn in Scorpio. If this sounds heavy
and intense, believe me it was.
Mars has been retrograde in Libra since March 1st and in its
journey from 28 degrees to 9 degrees it has traveled from my first house to my
12th house. Now we all know that Mars is definitely not comfortable in Libra
and a retrograde Mars is not exactly a boon to accomplishing our goals. But
having it in your 12th house is literally a double whammy. I am very impatient
for Mars to enter my 1st house, but I will have to wait until June 26th for
that to occur. But at least Mars is in motion, be it ever so slowly. Mars
stationing direct did prompt me to tweet on the 19th that: "Mars
going direct today may temporarily exacerbate feelings of frustrations and
impatience but progress is imminent." I really want to believe that, let me tell
you!
Mars has also been squaring my
nodes, which has definitely amped up the frustration level. Who likes to feel stuck? I know that when planets transit the nodes
change is necessary due to the challenges they present in the form of a square.
But since patience is not my strong point with my natal Mars squaring both my
Sun and Saturn, there is a big part of me wants to scream, "enough already!" The
bottom line is that even though Mars is direct, I am fully aware that it will
probably be a week or two before real movement is evident. My business is
really slow, despite the fact that I have been making major investments in time
and money to promote myself. Granted, I
could just be feeling the effects of transiting Saturn in Scorpio on my Sun
forcing me to be responsible and do the work, but it does get tiring.
What will happen when we can actually feel Mars in action?
Plenty! For starters, from mid to late June, Mars will be in the middle degrees
of Libra activating the infamous Uranus Pluto square that none of us can
escape. On a personal level, it will also cross my ascendant and activate my
grand air trine to my moon and Mars. Will I finally experience relief and be
inundated with new Reiki and astrology clients? It's certainly something to
aspire to. I'll keep plugging away and have faith that I will reap the benefits
of my efforts to communicate with the masses.
But when all else fails me, I do try to fall back on that
grand water trine. My chart is basically
water and air, so water is my comfort zone.
My Sun, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Pallas and Ceres are in Scorpio and my Jupiter,
Uranus, Vesta and south node are in Cancer. The first one this week occurred on
May 22, 2014 with the Pisces moon trining Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in
Scorpio. It inspired me on that day to
tweet that “Pisces moon trining Jupiter in Cancer today brings big dreams,
enthusiasm and ability to see the big picture.
But don’t expect it all at once.”
On May 24, 2014, we will
experience the Grand Water Trine with Chiron in Pisces, Saturn in Scorpio and
Jupiter in Cancer. I like to call it the
Power of Three. Saturn is still
retrograde until July 20th, when it finally stations direct at 16
degrees of Scorpio. Chiron in Pisces
represents healing and magic, Jupiter in Cancer hope, luck and money and Saturn
in Scorpio represents work, power and money.
It is somewhat reminiscent of that fabled Grand Water Trine involving
Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces in 4 degrees of
those respective signs back on July 17, 2013.
That was an incredibly peaceful, spiritual day for me last summer that I
thoroughly enjoyed. This time around,
Chiron in Pisces is substituting for Neptune, and I truly believe that Chiron
will be extremely beneficial in helping us to heal those emotional wounds, even
if we do need to experience some pain in facing them. Saturn and Jupiter are not exactly on the
same wavelength and tend to make strange bedfellows, but it helps that they are
trining each other by leveling the playing field. Saturn in Scorpio trining Jupiter in Cancer
will give us access to realism and optimism and Saturn’s trine to Chiron will
assist in weeding out emotional patterns that interfere with our ambitions and
prevent us from moving on.
I am also eagerly anticipating Jupiter’s entry into my 10th
house on May 29, 2014. Jupiter hasn’t
been in my 10th house since early December, so this is a big event
for me as I approach my Jupiter Return in mid-July 2014. I had some good financial news back then and
I hope for a reoccurrence, albeit in a somewhat different form.
