There certainly seems to be many energies flying these days. SO much so that I notice I have been more conscious about grounding and taking brief pauses because I have a familiar feeling, like I’ve been at the carnival a bit too long and my head is spinning! Does that resonate for you? There are many aspects of life showing themselves more clearly than “normal”. At the same time, I notice more shifts too. It’s like the way the air feels or smells right before a storm. The sun is shining, there’s the daily routine and there’s something else but just out of sight.
Astrologically, there is what looks like a traffic jam of planets on a natal chart. Aries energy is active, quick, and can be too quick. And Mercury is in retrograde till 4/25 perhaps adding to the complexities in communications, business dealings, and machinery. Keep in mind that this “climate” doesn’t just apply to our outside world, but equally inside too.
We have Pluto in Aquarius – Pluto the planet of transformation through death and rebirth in the Aquarius the sign of innovation by way of non-conforming partnering up! A very good strategy might be surrender, faith, and lots of humor.
And also in the foreground is Chiron (personal identity) activating the North Node (wounded healer). We may be feeling aware or sensitive around aspects of our identity that are old issues. Old wounds wanting our attention to honor and soothe the pain. Note – This may be an opportunity to innovate somehow and gain the support of this cosmos climate!
We are in an accelerated transformation phase, high growth for those who are choosing to see issues, prolonged downtime, or high volume activity as a growth opportunity. And if not, then it may feel like changes but less satisfying. No judgement. This is not “one size fits all” and we each are in the perfect place at the perfect time. There seems to be a constant question or invitation to consider “What is my balance point in THIS situation, or in this moment” going on. And also “What new ways are there for me to find balance that I haven’t tapped into before?”.
My observations have influenced small but significant shifts in my responses to my world. Here are some to name a few:
- It doesn’t have to be perfect.
- Because I can do it, doesn’t mean I should do it.
- There are things I think would help another, but would they consider it help?
- I’m not responsible for everything! But I am responsible for my Self care.
- If I can’t decide/finish it/find the energy, then that is a good time to look at what my unmet needs are and address them; not try to push through.
- Because I feel alone in this “situation” doesn’t mean I am alone. I sometimes just need to ask for help.
What shifts have you been observing in your world?
What visions are you holding or calling into manifestation? Maybe you could share one with us?
In closing, I want to touch on the fact that we are in the Eclipse Portal; between the lunar eclipse on March 25th and the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8th. Whatever your perspective about that, it is a significant astrological event. This is an important time to listen to your inner voice/intuition/gut feelings about things. This is a good time to tune out the noise and excessive opinions that may find their way to you as you focus on your own sovereign authority. We are where we are – for a reason. Trust your own and others’ journey.
