Rolling Thunderboil

normanNorman Reedus also here

I gave myself the Walking Dead for Full Leo Moon in my 8th house for VDay.
Marathon of intensity for Lunar rush between my Venus/Jupes.  I loved it immediately, particularly when the phrase “we have been through so much, but I hardly know you” came up.  Very Saturn in Scorpio, Uranus square Pluto – cut to the chase, work to be done, the rolling thunderboil.  It resonated, was exactly what I needed.

Daryl is such an interesting character, I read Norman wanted him to have a heart of gold under that rough past, made it happen onscreen.  Savvy Moon in Leo (rules heart) touch, I love it.  Well done.

Norman showing some IL love right onNorman is a Capricorn Sun square Saturn (refined) in Aries (action), with Mars (rules Aries) well placed in Scorpio (ancient ruler, regenerative power) in trine to Venus exalted in Pisces.  Quiet strength, resilient, fair – ready to kick ass into high gear metamorphosis when need be, also good senses re: heart of what matters.

Scorpio Mars square (internal tension) Mercury (communications) exalted in Aquarius, brain gears running rebel warp speed, yet not oppressive or showy but intense.  He speaks volumes when he doesn’t speak at all (see rolling thunderboil).  Late Virgo Pluto (Rx) out of sign conjunct Uranus conjunct Jupiter in early Libra – sweet rolling trines to earth Sun and air Mercury by transference of light.  Practical balance, exploring the intellectual intensity of relationships (Venus square Neptune).

Norman Reedus WD
Sideways, interesting divinations.

In a close up in the episode I was just watching (3/7), I noticed Norman has two moles on the left (private) side of his face near his mouth.  Moles are metal, considered lucky on the face, I have one on my left also – we will age well. More face reading info in previous posts here.

Jupiter (archer, travel) is conjunct Uranus (adoption, friends) in Libra (partnerships) which is well suited to both Daryl and Normans journey. Norman has spent many years traveling the globe since he was young – travel make camp, then pick up and move on.  Living the 5 life path dream.

Mercurial, (rules 5, and is exalted in Aquarius) thoughtful, kind…he says and does interesting things that shifts my perspective into high qi. He also likes cats (Leo Moon) which is always a plus in my book, having plenty of Leo myself.  Here he is with Eye in the Dark.  I’ll pop a vid in the comments as well.

Norman and Eye in the Dark

Scorpio Neptune trine 29 degree Pisces Chiron finds healing via discernment of emotional connections between all living things.  Very strong healing vibe worked well through the vehicle of film, (Neptune rules) both behind and in front of the lens.

Mercury exalted loves the intellectual perspective shifts creation delivers.
Venus exalted loves the emotional transcendence.
Norman is the best of both worlds, brilliant and compassionate.

The chosen work of the artist is always evident in the natal, as well as the person themselves.  I find it endlessly fascinating how we all manifest spirit through our work on earth. (Sun is spirit; Saturn, rules Capricorn, earth and work)

Norman archery

Interesting also – my brother was punctured by his arrow in a fall, pulled it out himself and hauled his ass outta the woods, alone.  Deets, story in previous post here.  Norman’s Leo Moon (actors, drama) is conjunct my brothers triple Leo Pluto Mars Saturn.

I came back specifically to edit in this amazing pic.

goofy goaty goats

WheeeEeee !
Okay, how cute is this goat ?

Today’s tribute to the mystical seaGOATS
is for
national hangover day
and
Mercury Pluto Sun in Capricorn.

This Cap rising spent NYE dry as a bone.
Still have a headache though : Saturn Rx in the Head (Aries).
I get them all the time.
If you get migranes, check this herb, it may help.

Love to see the goaty goats do their thang.
Comes naturally, the climbing, the rising, the fancy footwork.

Check this one.
Weird.
Monkey does not look to be enjoying the ride much.

Such a disservice to say Capricorns are slow, stodgy, or cold.
My used to be mentor was overly fond of the phrase ‘cold, cold, Capricorn’.

Somehow I managed to keep my mouth shut.
Surprise !
Miracles DO happen. lol.

Saturn restricts my 3rd house comms for the most part.

Unless trine to Sag Mars gets fired up.
Fire triggers quintile to Uranus in Virgo 9 . . .

You get where I’m going with this.
Sagittarius : self-righteous indignation is us.
Ah well, nobody’s perfect.
Workin’ on it !

According to legend,
Kaldi was the Ethiopian goatherder who discovered the coffee plant.
Goats would chew the berries then go cRaZy JuMpiNg.

Kaldi ate them too, got a rush
– you guessed it –
soon everyone wanted jumping berries.

As you swill your brew on hangover morn,
thank a Capricorn.

Coffee was born via a
goofy goaty goat
somewhere in Ethiopia.

MoOovin’ on UP !

Tardis Tarot

Reading Theresa Reed’s recent post kickstarted me into doing this reading. She did a reading for herself asking : ‘what advice will I need and appreciate in the future ?’.

Some of you regulars may already know: I see and often experience time as fluid, meaning the past/future/past occur simultaneously.  It’s a bit complex to be sure, but strangely enough, it also makes perfect sense, it feels right – time is woven, it warps and wefts – similar to prismatic colors of changing light, a bit of tweaking can change the time vibrations.  …far out huh..?  chew on it awhile while I tell you about the reading..

So with that time tinkering in mind…‘I asked our collective future selves what we collectively, globally would need to know to make it through the coming 7 exact Uranus Pluto squares season ?‘  Of course, the intent of this reading is clarity and the highest global good of all Earthkind.

This is the Robin Wood deck, by the way – my preferred for readings, my ‘go to deck’.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
9 Swords:  (yang- outgoing, expressive)
Obviously, collectively we will be tense, worried and there is stress.  I am a Dune freak, so this is my * Fear is the Mind-killer card. *see below  Don’t allow the fear needle to to get stuck in a worn out groove.  Swords are thoughts, but think also knives to prune and keep thoughts to a necessary functioning level.  Adaptation, improvisation is word UP !
Fall down, problem-solve, keep your eye on the prize, get right back up.
Repeat.
Think Morpheus, we are awakening from a collective illusionary dream of unlimited resources only to realize our world is in dire straits from greed and tyranny run rampant.  The age of global communication has arrived in force & it is the catalyst here.  Now we KNOW.  This woman thinks about balance and knows what is necessary.

Q Wands: (yang- outgoing, expressive)
 Feminine fire energy is waxing ~ the confident gung-ho to go – getters, pro-active, engaged in all forms of life, creative and playful with an enthusiasm to lead.  These energies will be found in the coming years. This queen is sparking off new ideas every which way – she is versatile, vivacious and independent, inspiring others to take the reins in their lives and be creative as well.  Hers is an energy to emulate: be social, creative, friendly, generous and champion your supporters.  She is the queen of hearth and home, she has the energy, the will and sees the directions to employ for success.

Page Pents: (yin- passive, introspective)
Messenger of Manifestation pulling up to the station ~  this guy is earth of earth, the learner, the student the bookworm and the builder – he is the need for hard work with the promise of reward for labors forthcoming.  This is a message of persistence and having the practical skills in your chosen field.  The groundwork, the grunt work, the legwork that builds success through experience, ethics and ambition.  These series of Uranus Pluto transits will try us and change us, but we must employ patience and take care of our physical selves and the Earth we are standing on.   He has analyzation skills to use – work them to your favor.

This card, most importantly is where ideas and passion hit the ground. 
This is crucial – have the first two cards operating in top form, so when manifestation of the intellect and passions become reality on the physical plane the creations are healthy for all of us.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Spirit card, the crux of the question: 5 Pents: (yin, passive, introspective)
Obviously we enter into this time with a loss of faith and hope in the powers that lead the world financially.  We are worried that our lives and the lives of those around us will be filled with loss, troubles, financial strain, poor health and sorrow.  Globally wildlife is threatened, our waters are choked with oil and plastics, and a change needs to come.
We are a soul-searching world, dissatisfied with the corruption passing for leadership.
Capricorn is fearful of change – Pluto delivers metamorphosis.  Count on it.
Coach yourself to conquer the fear of change, think, speak and walk your best talk.

What to remember is 5 is a number of change, and the only constant in life is change.
There are two people here, if they huddled together, they would be warmer and feel less alone in their dire straits. They each have a friend, there is life, there is hope. The only way we will succeed personally and globally is all for one, one for all.  Light a candle rather than curse the darkness.

We are a teeming mass of people with an opportunity to be a teaming mass of people. 

Ya dig ?

DUNE
Bene Gesserit Litany against fear:

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

peace out peeps~

go DEEP


Golden Bough by Jeroen van Valkenburg

Sun (spirit, ego) is rooted in Capricorn, focal point of a T-square involving Saturn (testing,restriction) in the latter degrees of Libra, the balancer, and Jupiter, the expander, is in the early degrees of Taurus.

I balance (Libra) vs. I have (Taurus).

Expand or restrict ? …Or both, most likely – just not the way you expected to.
Be aware both Libra and Taurus are Venus ruled.
Venus is love art, money and yes…women.

I had a great night with a girlfriend watching Game of Thrones and talking art and business.  We are both finishers…by that I mean the work is full bodied – 360 degrees and then some.  She finishes the underneath where most people do not even look, it is a complete effort head to toe.  Her work is fabulous, and she has won many awards and was recently recognized nationally in her field.  YaY !

I described my work as a porterhouse steak.  Plenty of facts and meat to dig into if you choose to look and click the links I provide.  I am 9th house heavy (visionary) in the sign of Virgo (details).  Neptune touches nearly everything in my chart, so the writing is mystical, yet grounded with facts to back up the intuitive leaps. Eighth house and Pluto strong, so I go deep, every time.

My friend and I are women artists, (Venus is conjunct Neptune now – both octaves of art) so we spent the evening enriching each other with solid friendship support.  That’s Aquarius at work, the tribe.

The Mercury and Pluto conjunction in the sky in the sign of Capricorn (career and status) made our business/art convo rich, deep and satisfying.   (Mercury is communication, and Pluto rules the depths)

May your transformations bring you the insight you crave and the peace you deserve…

Earth Mama

A friend of mine recently asked her girlfriends on fb to list their girl crushes, as she didn’t have any.  I couldn’t think of any either – not any recent ones anyway. Chrissie, Joni, and the Wilson sisters..?  Well, that’s been going on for years…
Now, usually when it comes to my Venus Jupiter conjunction in Leo (love and heaps of it, especially for the creative arts) square (creative tension)  Neptune (music, film and illusion), if you ask me about crushes, I’m gonna ask, “How much time ya got ?!”  haha  (You can sift through the entries on here for the scruffy dudes if you really want to know.)

Venus square Neptune..?  It’s the escape, the other world, the dream life blooming inside my head.  I feed my imagination every chance I get.  It’s a waking meditation which allows intuitive sparks from my Mars in Sagittarius quintile Uranus to light me up !

Today a friend posted a Zooey Deschanel video, and I remembered: I have already mentioned Emmylou, (click) – she was one of my very first posts) then Patricia, now Zooey.  So I guess I have 3 recent girlcrushes, if you can call it that.  I like their work, voices, talent, their art.  It’s synastry somewhere between us that brings out my curiosity, I will follow their work.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As far as the synastry, I peeked and Zooey has Saturn conjunct my Virgo Sun/Uranus/Pluto stellium, all of which is trine her Sun/Moon/Mercury/ Part of Fortune stellium in Capricorn.  My Mercury is conjunct her Pluto and her North Node is conjunct my Venus in Leo.  My biggie Neptune is sextile her stellium as well.  (It just dawned on me…all these women I mentioned have strong Capricorn. hmmm…)

Go and check your synastry with your favorite artists, see where you end up, it’s fun !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zooey has loads of Mystical Sea Goat all conjunct her Capricorn Ascendant.
Zooey is a triple Capricorn.
Sun, Part of Fortune in 1st, Mercury spot on Ascendant, and Moon in 12th – all within 6 degrees.  (click here for another triple capricorn)

Planets conjunct the angles are stronger, and with both the luminaries conjunct her Ascendant, Zooey has presence !

Zooey has Venus exalted in Pisces quintile (genius talents- gifts of spirit) Neptune in Sagittarius !
These are the planets of the arts, and any aspect between them denotes an artist.  Venus, is the earthbound cultivated artist and personal love.  Neptune is the inspired artist, being in tune with the universe, cosmic love.  Zooey’s Venus and Neptune are both in visionary signs : I see (Sagittarius),  I believe (Pisces).

Her Capricorn stellium at the Ascendant is trine Saturn in Virgo.  Moon and Mercury are also trine Mars in Virgo (which is conjunct Jupiter).  Fair to say she is most likely a very hard worker, and organized with all that Virgo.

Uranus is at the Scorpio Midheaven in 10th showing the public she is a bit quirky and inventive with her talents, needs to switch it up a bit in career.   She is multi-talented and takes on many different projects – movies, music and she recently launched a website HelloGiggles (click).

North Node of Destiny at 29 degrees of Leo is a culmination degree in the sign of creativity.  Pluto in (Venus-ruled) Libra 9th, square Sun, Moon and Mercury, and Zooey is a powerhouse communicator through her artwork.
