I’m getting right to it.
All of the transits I’m about to list are occurring between 6-8° of their respective signs. This means that they are all within orb and aspect of each other. This will result in a couple of planetary geometry configurations which need to be addressed.
I want you to know and understand the energies of these transits separately before I bring them all together. So let’s take a look at yesterday and tomorrow…
Yesterday, 24th November, there were four transits of note:
- Mars in Libra quincunx Neptune in Pisces at 7:58a PDT (7.03) – Actions taken in the name of balance, equality and justice indirectly affect the dreams & ideals of Oneness, compassion, healing…and vice-versa. This may indicate the avoidance or escaping the actions of others by going into denial, delusional thinking, altered states of consciousness, or literally running away, OR it could result in strong beliefs in those ideals of compassion, collective emotional-spiritual healing, and Oneness indirectly influencing the actions being taken for justice and equality.
- At 8:57p PST, Mercury conjuncted Saturn in Sagittarius (6.86). Mercury gave a voice to Sag Saturn’s “authority of truth” presence, giving each and all of us a heads-up that truth is coming. Many of us have been going, going, going…trying to maintain a sense of normalcy or continuity in our lives, trying to grow and expand despite the signs of change we see around us. Through this conjunction, we are now being forcibly made aware of the detours we haven’t been able or willing to see clearly before now.
- Libra Mars made exact trine aspect with Ceres in Aquarius at 9:48p PST (7.33). Actions being taken in the name of justice were given a great boost of exposure as Aquarius Ceres helped get the word out to the rest of humanity, awakening consciousness of community and worldwide practices and values which need to be reassessed. A notable shift in popular opinion and social values may have resulted from the actions taken in order for voices to be heard.
- Sagittarius Mercury also made exact square aspect to Pisces Neptune at 11:15p PST (7.02). This was an opportunity for Mercury’s intellect to bring factual truths to Neptune’s idealism, and vice-versa. We are learning that some of us really don’t want to know the truth about our circumstances or ourselves – some of us may be avoiding the truth or seeking escape from the truths we don’t want to face. On the other hand, some of us may be finding that dreams really can come true, and that what we’ve always believed to be impossible may actually be possible after all.
Tomorrow, 26th November, there is one transit of note:
- The intensity has been building in the Saturn in Sagittarius-Neptune in Pisces square, which finally reaches its most exact transit at 4:18a PST (7.03) on 26th November, and for those of us who have been avoiding or escaping truths we don’t want to face, it may feel like hitting a wall after racing forward at a high rate of speed. Saturn in Sagittarius has been within square aspect with Neptune in Pisces for a few days now. This energy has been growing more and more intense as the “authority of truth” presence of Sagittarius Saturn is imposing its will upon Pisces Neptune’s happy dreamy fantasyland, and it finally comes to a head tomorrow. With this transit occurring a 9 universal day, if you haven’t allowed the truth to come in OR if you haven’t let go of what stands in your way before today, you may be forced to face it and/or let it go on this day.
Though some of the afore-mentioned transits have already passed through peak exactness, all of the players are all still within 3° orb of each other to create the following configurations and the dynamics they produce right before and on this day, Wednesday, 25th November 2015.
- A Conjuncted Square configuration of (Mercury conjunct Saturn in Sagittarius) square Neptune in Pisces, was most exact just about 11:10p PST on 24th November (6.90-7.02°) – This could be a very dramatic reality check as facts & truths shatter façades, either by bringing realistic, fact-based limits or boundaries to (delusional) ideals OR by bringing what were believed to be delusional ideals into manifest reality. Mercury moves out of orb by the morning hours on 26th November (PST), but the Saturn-Neptune square transit locks in shortly after Mercury’s departure.
- The biggest configuration is the “Wedge” configuration involving Mars in Libra sextile (Mercury conjunct Saturn in Sagittarius) sextile Ceres in Aquarius is most exact about 6:45a PST (6.92-7.60°) and all players are still well within 3° orb at the time the Gemini Full Moon is at its maximum phase. This may play out as assertive or aggressive actions being taken to reveal and communicate the facts needed to limit the growth or expansion of acts of injustice – revelations and communications which create a shift in popular opinion in ways which support justice and equality for all of humanity (a.k.a. – the spark of rebellion or revolution). However, it could also result in assertive or aggressive actions taken to limit equality and justice and stifle the expansion of truth or factual communications – this would be done in order to prevent a shift in popular lifestyle values or societal lifestyle standards (a.k.a. – to thwart a possible rebellion or revolution). I’m curious to see how this plays out, and if we get a combination of both expressions of this energy. Mercury moves out of orb by the morning of the 26th, but Mars keeps the configuration in place a bit longer, continuing the immediate after-effects of Mercury’s influence going for a day or two more.
What these transits and configurations reveal is the rather astonishing fact that all that is happening right now really is all interconnected. Even though we each have things happening in our individual and collective life experiences that don’t seem to be connected, the more we step back and apply Sagittarius’ “big picture” perspective to the matters at hand, we can see how one thing is affecting another in our lives, and in our world.
The magic in all of these converging dynamics is that we can also see how the choices we make on an individual level can affect not only us, but the people and the world around us. Just like the choices of others may affect us, we also have the power to affect them. We learn that it’s a two-way street.
That said, it’s also important to remember that it is a two-way street and we may not have control over what the other drivers on the street are doing. This is where the 2015 Gemini Full Moon (exact at 2:44p PST today – 3.33°) fits into this equation, not by transit but by presence. As Rosey stated in the last post, today’s Full Moon asks us to let go of both 1) what we think we know about ourselves and the world around us, and 2) our questions about what we want to know. By adapting a wider lens, we may see things we didn’t realize were there and learn things we didn’t know we needed to learn. This is also happening on an 8 universal day numerologically speaking – there are certain to be some awakenings and/or shifts in power as truths come to light.
We’ll learn that there are quite a few people clinging onto visions and dreams which may or may not be possible at this time or ever (before or again). They believe that truth is on their side – that the facts will prove them to be correct or victorious in some way. The challenge in this Sag Saturn-Pisces Neptune square is that the truth will indeed prove some people correct…but what they’re right about may not be anything to be particularly proud of. The factual truth is going to be difficult enough for the people who are correct about it. That same factual truth may be devastating for people who have been aggressively resisting it.
At the same time, we’ll also learn that there are quite a few people who are ready to give up on their visions and dreams, believing that they’ve been deluding themselves or coming to terms with their hopes never being fulfilled – that the facts are proving them to be wrong or defeated. In this case, the challenge of the Saturn-Neptune square will be to recognize and/or accept that their dreams, in fact, are coming true. This could be a moment of astonished disbelief and/or overwhelming joy.
There is a lot of energy that could go both ways – for better and worse, depending on perspective. I have a feeling each of us will experience a bit of both. Considering what’s happened in the last 7-10 days, this window of 24-26 November 2015 could prove to be a pivotal time in which both our dreams and nightmares could very well come true.
Thanks for reading and sharing Signs and Numbers. Until next post…
