Tidal sway

Posted on by

Rebecca Guay RegenerateRebecca Guay,  Regenerate

Thoughts on the emotional, intuitive Grand Water Trine & kite . . .
Cancer Venus opposing Pluto in Capricorn is all about the past and letting go, attracting the activity that heals and regenerates.  Love, kindness and support.

These signs you can count on (under good aspects) to help haul your ass over the finish line if you are unable to yourself.  These signs are kin – by blood or by choice, they are your anchors.  These signs/houses are also places in your chart where you can summon the rock or the surrender.

Venus trine Saturn trine Chiron across the intuition houses of tidal sway is passive, introverted and reflective.  Teaching ourselves how to swim forward from the inner heartspace of New Leo Moon.  Inner SEEING is up to bat with several squares pushing us to reach our highest vibration – we are uncomfortable, restless.

Mercury is now square North Node in Libra – feelings of attraction, love, creativity and harmony are in the forefront of our minds as Mercury is also moving to square Uranus in Aries.  Clever but cautious – as Uranus is Rx and quincunx Saturn.  Logic with Love.
Sense & Sensibility. 

Scorpio Mars squares Jupiter, both sitting in fixed signs mulling over the obstacle course ahead that we have laid before ourselves.  What we dream, what we desire from our deepest well to create.  Intentions set at New Moon now require sweat equity to really work, they need constant vigilance and directional adjustments.

::::::::::::::::::

Mars moving to conjunct Saturn in Scorpio near the Full Moon at 18 degrees  Aquarius on August 10 puts a new fire and focus under our workdrives.  This full moon will square Saturn and oppose Sun and Mercury in Leo.  We will be juggling creative brainstorms like wild – Sun and Mercury trine Uranus !

Drives and Desires to create will be Supersonic – note if you have these planets working together or prominent in your natal, you may feel this power a few days earlier than I indicated, I gave a 5 degree orb, I give sensitives 7 degrees.

Contemplate these things as young moon grows to full bohemian rebel.
It’s sure to be a wild ride full of surprises !

peace

onward through the past

Posted on by

. . . is the slogan on my favorite record store.  Ancient hippies, perpetual incense and music I haven’t heard before, I love it.

Dark Moon in Cancer swings up to square the  Mars / Saturn conjunction in Venus- ruled Libra while Venus in Cancer opposes Pluto Rx in Capricorn and squares Uranus Rx in Aries.

Doors are opening into the past.  

Major metamorphosis involving relationships, women, mothers, money, exchanges of energy and love, dynamics around work, men and how to balance past and present are all in hyperdrive ~>

What do we choose to molt, shed, or cleanse ourselves from ?  

Deep well of psyche is reached during Cancer dark moon.

Primal instincts take over.
We shelter and cocoon, germinate underground.  We follow our gut.
(Cancer rules stomach)

Cancer is the womb and the tomb.

This T-Square is a call to reach deep within, identify old feelings and jettison those that do not serve our highest good.

Cancer rules Moon and fluctuation, she pulls the tidal waters aka feelings in our physical bodies.

Think of yourself as Captain of your ship (body).

Your crew (cells) are depending on you to guide them well from the cradle to the grave.

Make it so.

Life on Mars

Posted on by


Eerie skies and drought grass turned my whole world golden tonight.  
It felt like life on Mars…even my cappuccino cream cat turned golden in the light.

The fall blooming clematis vine you see here at the bottom is about the only thing growing in my yard, except for my garden, which I am watering.  My gardener freak father gave me cuttings from his clematis years ago, and it now covers nearly my entire chain link fence.
Mars (cuttings) from my father (Saturn) for a fragrant garden (Venus/Libra).

How are you all doing with Mars conjunct Saturn..?
Workhorses ?
No pain, no gain ?

I have promised myself I would go to bed early tonight.  Wouldn’t lay bets on that, though.  The Mars / Saturn conjunction in Libra above us is activating my natal Mercury.  Mars trines Saturn in my natal and my progressed Mars is exalted (and conjunct Moon – so I feel like working)  in Capricorn. 

See what I mean ?!!  MarsMarsMars

Plus Grand Air Trine: Moon / Venus / Saturn + Mars – so I am writing, probably will for hours.  

Friday 3rd
Moon into Pisces 8:58am CST,USA

Tuesday 7th
Venus into Cancer 8:43am, CST, USA

Wednesday 8th
Mercury stations direct 1’26” Leo 12:40am, CST, USA

*ding* second round

Venus slides into touchie – feelie Cancer and a T-square ! 
Uranus Rx at 8’17” Aries squares both Pluto at 7’21” Capricorn and newborn Cancer Venus ~> while Venus opposes Pluto Rx.

In english for non- astro folks, presto-change -o metamorphosis regarding love, money, creative juices, feelings, home are all coming into intense focus at the same time communication matters are shifting sands…!

Mercury energies are buzzing and setting off buzzers – the change – up in energies around stations are always more keenly felt !  Mercury will then begin closing a trine to Uranus Rx – you have mail !

Who knows what, though ?!?  Uranus Rx is a total and I do mean total wildcard.
Things are about to get really interesting !

T- square tension lives in your Cardinal signs: Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.  Any planets between 3-13 degrees are going to be feeling the heat.  Metamorph baby !
Venus will feel better to early Scorps, less so for early Libra.

Leo Mercury will station direct in trine to North Node of Destiny in Sagittarius also at one degree ( N Node is nearly into Scorp ! ).  
Fire much, lol !?
Early Sagittarius is a sweet spot for talking/ thinking it out, while early Scorp planets will begin to feel the communications get tense.

All this while Mars is conjunct Saturn.
All while Mars + Saturn trine Neptune and Chiron in Pisces.
:::::::::::::::

This is some serious work hard and heal well astro.

Dive in !  and be ready to bob & weave, baby !

Manifestation Station

Posted on by

We have a fun weekend in store !
Sun in the last degrees of Cancer brings feelings to a culmination point in that house.
 
Sun enters Leo Sunday the 22nd, 5:01am CST, USA

Sun will play with fire and join Mercury Rx in Leo.
Uranus Rx in Aries is fire, North Node also in fire – Sagittarius.

Mercury Rx trines Uranus Rx , is quintile Saturn … expect messages from the past, discoveries or radical solutions – especially when you least expect it.  Creative ideas, solutions, actions plans will unfold in front of you with this astro.

Mars trines Venus and Jupiter in Gemini so is it any wonder the chit – chat, even if only inner dialogue is pumped up and on steroids ?   Mars sextiles Mercury, so there is some real creative problem – solving to be found in the quiet moments – brainstorms will erupt ! 

What I mostly want to mention is this :  
Neptune Rx in super fresh Pisces home waters is the dream reality – our earthly link to the cosmos and vice versa.   This is the manifestation aspect – Mars action closes in on Saturn in Libra – which trines Neptune – Manifestation Station… !  

Dream it then BE IT !

Balance is circling & coming in for a landing ….

Make it so.
So mote it be.

blessings & peace

let the music take your mind

Smokey.
Love Smokey.  He is soOo smooooth…

Smokey Robinson is a 29 degree Aquarius Sun, Cancer Moon.  Strong placement for a crooner, as Moon rules Cancer, and is in square to his Venus (rules Taurus the throat) Jupiter conjunction in (Mars- ruled) Aries.  Vocal power and inner restraint.

Smokey has Uranus in Taurus which gives him great vibrato.  Neptune (inspired musician) also trines Uranus in Taurus (throat).  Cancer Moon is trine Aquarius Sun and Mercury in Pisces – expressing his loving nature through song and voice comes natural to him as Mercury in Pisces and Neptune in Virgo are in mutual reception.

Mars in Taurus conjunct Saturn in Aries gives him great vocal control and Mars (sex) and Saturn are square (inner tension) Pluto (sex) in Leo (creativity). Pluto is also trine his Venus Jupiter (big love) conjunction in Aries (Mars ruled) and let’s face it, Smokey’s songs deliver the sexy sex.  Ohhhyeahhh…

This one goes out to my brother Jeff who loved this song and turned my high school bff into a doe-eyed puddle when he sang it to her, lol.

let’s flow, let’s gliiiiide ~

Jeff Bridges

May I introduce Sagittarian actor, musician, vintner and artist Jeff Bridges.  Jeff was born into a family of actors, his Mom, Dad and his older brother, Beau.  Jeff made his first onscreen appearance at the tender age of four months.

His first big break was in The Last Picture Show, when he became one of the youngest actors ever to be nominated for an Academy Award at age 22 (1971, Best Supporting Actor, The Last Picture Show), and at age 60, Jeff became one of the oldest ever to win (2010, Best Actor, Crazy Heart).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I just watched True Grit and of course, loved it.  I loved Starman and have been to Barringer crater, which is featured in the movie, and it’s fabulous !
Starmans expression when he tried Dutch Apple Pie..?  Priceless.

I loved The Last Picture Show, Fearless, The Big Lebowski, (obviously a classic), The Fisher King, Men Who Stare at Goats, Tron, the list goes on and on…
I have spent my life watching Jeff light up the screen, so I wasn’t too surprised to find out he’s a Sagittarius.
(I am a Sagittarius magnet, it seems, I am naturally prone to fancy them, since I have lots of Sag energy myself.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jeff is a life path 3 (the zero adds power) which is a path of growth, flowering, and new directions unfolding out of the balance of 2.

He is a Virgo rising, with chart ruler Mercury in the 4th trine Pluto in creative Leo, on the 11th (natural house of Aquarius) a visionary placement for an artist.  Sun (exact conjunct Chiron) trine Pluto from the nadir (conjunction straddles the 3/4th) and Jeff is a natural gypsy story-teller (4th is the house of Cancer, they can spin a yarn like no other) with an optimistic heart.  Through his craft, he shows others how to heal themselves through communicating the need for loving acceptance of the natural human beauty found within us all.  (The nadir is the deep well of self, where and how we restore balance, trine Pluto in 11th.)

He shines a light on human relationships through his exquisite ability to morph and change in the public eye.  Gemini at mid-heaven and Jeff can fully embody chameleon-like qualities for his career – this is particularly evident with Uranus (polarities and change) elevated as well as Moon (fluctuation, imagination).

Uranus in the 10th has no major aspects – making Jeff a mavericks maverick !  Uranus is rebellious and innovative and without major aspects reigning it in, it is truly wild and free !  Having Uranus quintile the Ascendant gives him the ability to be unpredictable in the eyes of others via work and career.  This quality is further shown by his predominately mutable chart. The quincunx to the artistic Venus (art in the 29th or culmination degree) Jupiter conjunction in the creative 5th house (Sun – creativity – naturally rules) gives Jeff a super – charged ability to build a life – long eclectic career in the arts.
I am tickled Jeff has Venus conjunct Jupiter, because I do as well, but in Leo !  He is very well liked by his co-stars (Venus is kind /Jupiter expands), and is described as exceptionally easygoing (Sagittarius).

His craft is deep and thoughtful (Pluto ruling 3rd) and he derives a tremendous strength from family (strong Nadir placements, Moon trine Venus and Jupiter).  He has been especially influenced by males (Sun trine Pluto) and had worked very close with both his father and brother throughout his life (Mars conjunct Saturn).

He is known for working hard, and when young appeared on his fathers television show, Sea Hunt  with his brother on several occasions (Mars conjunct Saturn conjunct Ascendant). Squares from the Mars Saturn conjunction to Moon at the mid-heaven represents the Sagittarius need to explore his own path, make his own mark with the public (Moon).  Neptune in Venus-ruled Libra trine Moon in 9th and Jeff documents his films and travels on film, he is an avid photographer.

Sun at the nadir opposite Moon at mid-heaven shows that he loves his home life a great deal, but his restless nature calls him out to learn and communicate his feelings through his work.  North Node of Destiny in Aries (Mars rules) and Jeff has a path before him of blazing new trails in showing the depth of human nature (8th) through his work (Mars conjunct Saturn).

I will leave you with one of my favorite quotes from Starman:
You are a strange species. Not like any other. And you’d be surprised how many there are. Intelligent but savage. Shall I tell you what I find beautiful about you?
[Shermin nods]
Starman: You are at your very best when things are worst.
