Libra’s Last Week, Pluto Direct & the Principle of Essential Divinity

Wednesday and Thursday are fiery Sagittarius moon days, ruled by Jupiter (love/wisdom). Sagittarius is a mutable sign, offering experience for the personality that builds strength and courage and days filled with possibilities. We respond with enthusiasm.

Thursday, Oct. 15th, Pluto, retrograde since the beginning of May, turns direct in Aquarius, sign of the new era, new times, new world religion. Retrograde since early May, Pluto’s moving forward allows for shadow work, psychological realignments, all internal processing to step out into the visible world. Secrets, technological transitions, power dynamics, hidden since May, become apparent. When we come to Pluto, we cross a threshold. Pluto is the farthest planet in our solar system. Pluto is about endings and beginnings, limiting interactions in the old world, allowing the new to emerge . Pluto is an evolutionary planet, creating destruction (first), then transformation. We are in the early stages of this work. Pluto will be in Aquarius ‘til 2044.

Saturday, October 16th, Mars trines (harmony) with Saturn and Venus interacts with Uranus. Mars is action. Saturn is structure, rules and laws. Venus unifies and Uranus, well, Uranus simply steps in and turns everything upside down and sideways. Saturday will be interesting for those listening, watching and observing. Capricorn moon Saturday and Sunday – practical days.

Monday, October 19th, is Aquarius moon – the sign of rebellion, revolution, the surprising and unique, a friend to everyone. In Aquarius we seek freedom and individuality. We want to create the new world, impatient for it to come about. We break all traditions in order to make all things new.

Tuesday, Venus retrograde makes an energetic square to Pluto. There is a challenge to our interactions, relationships, in order that they be reviewed and assessed. The air may be tense with emotions, pressure points are activated, truth is called forth, power imbalances come into play. It’s time to strip away all illusion and restructure our lives in terms of authenticity, freedom, balance and fairness. Will humanity be capable of this? Each of us?

Wednesday, the 21st, disciples complete the 2-month study of the Aquarian Law of Spiritual Approach and enter into the study of the Principle of Essential Divinity.

Friday, the 23rd, the harmonizing and balancing Libra Sun slips into Scorpio. And the Nine Tests begin. Scorpio summons everyone to discipleship. Who will hear that call?

Aries	March 21 – April 19: An interesting planetary configuration is occurring between Pluto and planets around the Sun. Especially for you, Aries. A connection between your work in the world, group interactions, relationships and partnerships. It’s best to focus on Right Relations in all areas because Venus is at play here. Venus calls for an intelligent heart and loving mind. Have the intention and commitment to think and speak with Goodwill. Then “Providence provides the rest.”
Taurus	*April 20 – May 20:* What I wrote for Aries, applies to all the signs. For you, too Taurus, because Venus is your ruler and in your opposite sign of Scorpio. There’s a connection between your day-to-day interactions with loved one, service to the idea of justice, and your work in the world. You may be called to lead, to educate, to illuminate (your constant task). You must, simultaneously, focus on your health (your entrustment) and maintain etheric vitality. Your teachings help balance and grow people’s minds. So they can reach the Soul.
Gemini	*May 21 – June 20:* So many things to tell you as I look at your chart. First so many changes, with Uranus affecting you, the side-ways planet. Uranus is eliminating a previous sense of self, which at this time, no longer defines you. You have grown past that identity. It’s most important to provide praise to others and not withhold it, not be wry or dry or ironic. Kind humor is good. A new creativity is being called forth. This is because you are recognizing creativity in others. In the meantime, what do others have that you wish you had?
Cancer	*June 21 – July 22:* The focus always but specifically at this time is HOME. And so, what’s happening or occurring there? What is being illuminated? Is an imbalance seeking new balance? Is a disharmony seeking a new level of harmony? What is needed for you to feel more comfort at home? Talking, sharing, tending, restructuring soothing, comforting. These are words that apply to your needs and to your home life in relation to others. Must something begin to change? What is the story here?
Leo	*July 23 – August 22:* Multiple planets are influencing your sense of self with the Sun in your communication area of life. Pluto’s influencing your world of relationship, how are with others close to you. Something vital needs communicating, to you or from you. Whatever it is may feel like a disruption. But the goal is for a new level of kindness, goodwill and the result of Right Relations. From now on your daily life and work will go through an empowering state, beginning slowly and gaining momentum. Is there something scientific that would be good to learn?
Virgo	*August 23 – September 22:* Your values, resources and things most important to you and your creativity come into your awareness to and relationship with money, finances. They ask what are your personal hopes, wishes and drams? And how best can you use material resources? Do you see them as life energies or simply as possessions to be used only for the self? It’s important at this time to ponder, write down, define and articulate your spiritual values. Great gains are the result with the right use of resources. Tithing, too.
Libra	September 23 – October 22: Perhaps, out of necessity, you’ve become self-protective, even secretive, about something. Do you feel sorrow or guilt for choices recently made (or did make)? Are you reassessing relationships with loved one, with parents, perhaps mother? Do you need to understand what was given to you as a child and what wasn’t? Do you feel your early life prepared you for the present? What remembrances to you harbor? Are there fears and sadnesses? Over time they will transform. You will see the Truth. And heal.
Scorpio	October 23 – November 21: So much of what we hear and believe (know) from the world tends to be untruths. You know much of accepted information, education, science and history, is actually not real. Instead of questioning, you observe and instinctively search for reality, the truth of all matters, and encoded messages. You’re then able to communicate to others with intelligence and decisiveness the actual happenings in the world. Many resist your gifts. Few understand. Do not be deterred. The Truth is out there and you unveil it. Careful. You project a lighted heart to the world.
Sagittarius	*November 22 – December 21:* You know how to build resources. You know that sentimentality is part of why you have, keep and cherish certain possessions. You’re driven at times to have and make money. You don’t share easily. It’s not selfishness. It’s pride of ownership (like Taurus). However, in the times to come, as certain things will no longer be necessary, you will learn more about having less, change and transformation. Strength and innate understanding will hold you. You are to teach others about the cosmic and geometric order of the universe.
Capricorn	December 22 – January 19: Let’s just tell the truth here. Your intensity is very high, along with leadership, abilities, and personal magnetism. These are not compliments. These are realities about how your presence is experienced by others. Recognizing this allows you to understand why others may struggle with you, turn away, protect themselves and at times be defensive. Dr. Oz says, “We must praise excellence.” I agree. However, most people don’t, can’t (yet) do this. They turn away, intimidated. Understand that Caps are like the Sun, a light Supernal. You carry wisdom. You’re often alone. It’s purposeful. You know the sanctity of all life.
Aquarius	January 20 – February 18: For the times to come you will experience a growth of perceptive intuition, unexpectedly uncover secrets and dreams may be very interesting. As world energies become more complex you will need more private time for absorption and reflection. Don’t repress emotions or deep needs. Stay away from anything addictive. Get more sleep. Attune to higher forces to guide us. Help others in all ways. Some Aquarians become healers. You see the world as one group mind, one heart, one love.
Pisces	February 19 – March 20: You will not be on the sidelines as the changes continue to accelerate in our world. You cannot be. You are (and will be) an effective leader with a strong sense of ideals, great intelligence and great power. Many will misunderstand this power, thinking it is power-over. They will not understand your power as “power-with.” They will miss your importance. Let them fall away. You are a leader within social change. Step forward with confidence. Wear sturdy shoes. The path to the mountaintop is rocky. The angels are with you.
