Happy 01/01/11 my friends:)
This morning, I want to take a look at the energy of the Outer Planets; Neptune, Uranus and Pluto which are the major forces of change in our human collective journey through life and also Jupiter, which plays a significant role in this year’s journey of evolutionary change and growth.
In the humanitarian, group-consciousness sign of Aquarius we are awakened, and here, Neptune allows us to access visionary concepts and bring them into reality, for the good of all.
Neptune moved into Aquarius on January 10th, 2010. It takes approximately 14 years for Neptune to move through each Constellation and so Neptune will remain in Aquarius until January 2024.
During Neptune’s journey through Aquarius there is a focus on implementing ideals of social justice and equality with an emphasis on the rise of the Common People as opposed to privileges for the elite few that we experienced during Neptune’s journey through Capricorn and we move collectively from the Love of Power to the Power of Love.
In Pisces we complete a cycle and the old dissolves away in order to make room and clear the way for the dawning of a new age. Uranus moved from Aquarius into mystical, compassionate Pisces on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2010 and will remain in Pisces until February of 2018. Jupiter entered Pisces in the Spring of 2010 and after moving back into Aquarius during a recent retrograde is now once again in Pisces.
Jupiter and Uranus join forces approximately every 14 years stimulating leaps forward in consciousness. Jupiter and Uranus join forces in a powerful conjunction once again at our New Moon Solar Eclipse on January 4th. This is their 3rd and final meeting during their current rendezvous, having previously joined forces in June and then September 2010, while retrograde.
When Jupiter and Uranus join forces, our desire for freedom and unique individual expression is ignited and our idealism and desire for equality is aroused.
Our consciousness is expanded and we are able to see things in a new and innovative way. Solutions, opportunities and new directions arrive, seemingly out of the blue.
It’s important to welcome change with a sense of anticipation as opposed to fear and worry realizing that the old ways need to dissolve and break down in order to make way for a new way of living and relating.
It’s very important that you clear a path in your life and let go of the physical, emotional and mental clutter that may hold you back from taking advantage of this fortuitous and expansive time. Lighten your load and open up to new opportunities.
Take time to assess your unique talents, pay attention to the inspiration rising in your consciousness and blaze a new trail. It’s time to have faith and believe in yourself and the beauty and goodness of humanity.
There are very supportive Universal influences assisting this transition from the “love of power” to the “power of love.” We have the mutual reception of Uranus, ruler of Aquarius in PIsces, and Neptune, ruler of Pisces in Aquarius and with Jupiter in Pisces, the expansive, optimistic nature of Jupiter is well-expressed, as a secondary ruler of Pisces (along with Neptune) it is in the sign of it’s dignity.
Jupiter squares Pluto for the third and final time in February before moving into Aries. While in Aries, Jupiter will trine Pluto twice in 2011, once in July while Pluto is Retrograde and again in October.
Pluto in Sagittarius is breaking down the barriers of false spirituality and dogma in our collective reality and through a combination of mysticism and science we are discovering much about our destiny and true potential as Spiritual Beings.
Secrets and hidden things are revealed when Pluto is activated. Pluto in Sagittarius is unearthing and revealing many discoveries in both a physical and spiritual manner about the true nature and significance of certain ancient civilizations, such as the Mayan and Egyptian Cultures. The Mayans discovered, understood and tracked the Sun Cycles and accurately predicted the ebb and flow of Earthly and Human Processes.
The Sun holds the key to our Survival and we need to learn live in harmony with it’s cycles. Some will greatly resist and deny all of these new discoveries unable to grasp their significance, but others will perceive and understand them as vehicles for enlightenment.
Pluto is representative of many things in life, among them, sexuality, death and the secrets of birth, regeneration and transformation. Pluto either regenerates or destroys -- there is no in between. It has the power to harm or heal and either way it will bring you great insights into yourself and the meaning of your existence.
Learn to flow with life and use change as a fuel for your creations and you will live in harmony with the power of Pluto. Resist the inevitable changes and Pluto will intensify and eliminate whatever is being resisted or held onto in an unhealthy fashion.
In our personal lives Pluto helps make us aware of the habits and misconceptions that we hold on to that cause us to become stuck. As a result of taking time for introspection and getting to the root of the matter and finding what is holding us back, Pluto then offers it’s transformational powers and you will find that previously unseen paths of opportunity will open up for you. Pluto is currently direct but will station Retrograde on April 8th.
Lighten your load this year and be ready to take advantage of opportunities as they arise. Sometimes a window has to be broken in order to let the light back in -- try and think of the times that we are traveling through in this way. The earth and all of it’s inhabitants are currently going through a true healing crisis and growing pains, with global events and catastrophes throwing us into states of turmoil and confusion.
Some of what is happening is man-made and diversionary and some of it acts of nature. Regardless of the cause. the key to staying sane and taking care of yourself during this period of time is to pull back from the source of fear, such as Television, Social Media and other modern life weapons of "mass distraction", cultivate peace and quiet in your life and remain connected to your inner wisdom and intuitive knowing. This will help guide you to the best direction for your own life to take.

Some Parting Words for the Journey Ahead
The energy of the world around us is changing and we need to adopt our lifestyle and choices to align with this energy and consciously create with it. This is the year to commit to a healthy routine. Get plenty of exercise and eat lots of natural, healthy food. Food equal mood -- feed yourself lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains, with a moderate amount of the protein of your choice. Drink lots of water. Take a walk each day to connect with the rhythms of earth. Make sure to get out in the Sunshine and soak up some vitamin D while resetting your circadian rhythms.
We cannot create a vibrant new world from a place of fear. Let go of whatever is passing out of your life, open your heart in compassion and see the divinity in everything and everyone around you. All of these things will help to strengthen your connection to spirit and intuition. Peaceful minds and happy hearts create the fertile ground that allow seeds of inspiration to germinate, flourish and grow. A new day is dawning, one that promises equality and opportunities for all as opposed to privileges for the few but it requires that we become self-actualized and self-reliant. So, let go of everything that is holding you back from being present in your life and get ready to take a huge leap of faith.
Once you see through the illusion of status, possessions,
and over consumption as the road to success, a life of adventure,
freedom of choice and creative ideas awaits you.
It’s like making a deal with the Universe:
less greed = more life.
Untether and savor the delicious abundance
of an ordinary life lived extraordinarily!
