whispering


Some of the energies are a bit edgy lately, with squares and oppositions above us, so I’m going to concentrate on the good energies.  These are some tips on how people react to stress and how best to handle it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When dealing with fire element people (Aries, Leo, Sag) it is helpful to remember they can be quick to defend their position.  They are action-oriented and will fight if pressed.  Listen, and show them you are on the same team.

Earth people (Toro, Virgo, Cap) are ‘hands on’ and like to keep some measure of control.  So listen, and give them the tools they need to work it out for themselves.

Air people (Gems, Libras, Aquas) need to be heard, so listen, ask them to explain, reassure them you heard, understand their point, and will continue to listen if they need to talk.

Water people (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) need to know you care, that their feelings are safe with you.  They are good readers, so don’t try to hide anything, speak gently and be compassionate.

I know.

Hey baby, what’s your vibration ?
(heh. ok. maybe I won’t use that one.)

We are a recipe of energies when we are born, that’s our blueprint brew – our default setting.  What happens via transits and progressions are layers of growth due to new blends of energies being tossed into our default gumbo.  Over the years we stew and simmer through the richness of our life lessons until we become a wise sage.

To understand the elements, one must understand their vibrations, energy and octaves.

~~~~~~~
Pentacles = Earth      Cups = Water         Swords = Air      Wands = Fire
~~~~~~~
Earth signs are patient, practical, tied to the solid earth, the manifestors.
Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn

Water signs are the emotional, intuitive, secretive signs, the feelers.
Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces

Air signs are the communicators, thinkers, the intellectuals, the speakers.
Gemini, Libra, Aquarius

Fire signs are the energetic, passionate, courageous leaders, the inspiring.
Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Now here comes the fun bit: 
Mercury is the planet of communication, thinking learning and sight.
The higher octave of Mercury is Uranus.  Knowing, intuition and clairvoyance.

Venus is the planet of personal love, touch and the cultured artist.
The higher octave of Venus is Neptune.  Divine love, inspired artist, psychometry.

Mars is the planet of personal will, destruction, outward energy.
The higher octave of Mars is Pluto. Divine will, rebirth after death, transformational inner energy.

All the signs and planets can express a high, or low vibration.

For instance, Low Neptune can be impractical, addictive, and escapist.
High Neptune, transcendent, compassionate and healing.

As energy rises in octaves it becomes faster, less dense… more free.


As sound and spoken word carry magical energy, so do thoughts for they are vibrations on a higher octave.
Bells clear energy in a room; thoughts of love, kindness and peace clear the mind.

Here comes the Sun

Do you know where your guiding planet is ?
heh…out late with a bad boy again ?!

It is the planet that rises before the Sun in your chart.  Also called oriental, it will be to the right of the Sun on the wheel going clock-wise.  This planet shows skills you have, a guiding factor in your life, talents further defined by what aspects it makes in your chart.

Moon= intuition, sensitivity to ‘the flow’, can multi-task well
Mercury= flair for communication, speaking, learning
Venus= artistry, loving, peacemaker
Mars= force of will, problem-solving, taking action
Jupiter= philosopher, big ideas, executive leaders
Saturn= perseverance, building, concentration
Uranus= revolutionaries, rebels, innovators
Neptune= Musical, abstracts, mysticism, healing visionaries
Pluto= penetrating mind, powerful charisma, research

I have Uranus oriental Sun 4 degrees, conjunct Pluto 5 degrees.  I’m a bohemian; a bit eccentric with a talent for astrology (Uranus rules astrolgy) and a fascination with magnetics and science.   How does your guiding planet reflect your talents..?

…………….OoOooOo………………

What phase of the moon were you born under ?  Each phase will have a different energy, and will manifest different qualites.  To find your moon phase, click under Astrology on ‘NASA Moon Phases’ and scroll until you find your month and year.

La luna spends about 2 days in each sign of the zodiac making a circle around the wheel of life in approximately 27.33 days.

……………………………………….OoOooOooO…………….

New Moon= new beginnings, instinctual re-birthing
Cresent= breakthrough, formation of future through the past
First Quarter= active pioneers, here to change things
Gibbous= need to perfect, analytical, learning truth
Full Moon= completion, exploring ideas/relationships/goals
Disseminating= distribution of knowledge, communicators
Last Quarter= re-examination of self, contemplation
Balsamic= quiet visionaries, loners, distilled wisdom

I was born under a disseminating moon in Taurus.  Moon is exalted in Toro, so I’m all about the senses…soft fabrics, incense, essential oils, massages, quiet nights, food has to be crispy, al dente, whatever.  Find the pea in the Princess bed ? *Snap !*  lol.  Taurus rules the throat and I am a singer, and obviously communicating – ta da ! (waves)  Moon is in my 4th so love of home and gardening, quiet, intuitive.
How about you and your moon…how does it work in your chart…?
