^What do you mean Taurus rules the natural 8th?

 

[Jamshyd]

Last december, I had a life-changing experience that was entirely-negative had I not utilized its destruction to start anew. A few days after that, I learn that there was an eclipse simultaneously with the solstice!

Now, last week I had am even more traumatic experience that I am still dealing with, but today I found out that there is a Venus/Sol/[jupiter?] conjunction. I have not yet looked into its specifics, but I can't help but note between my experiences and these arrangements, particularly having found out about them afterwards...

What are everyone's experiences with these rare arrangements? How would you interpret them for someone who is undergoing extreme transformation?

 

[ocean]

^Where is transiting Pluto, and Saturn ?
I know you said it was just a week but it could have been a build up to an aspect- or something.
I'll look back to find your chart.......



Edit:
I had you in my astro list-
So you have transiting Pluto at 7 Cap - sitting right on your 5th house line making wide conj's to both neptune and the sun. Sextiling your natal mars- with transiting mars crossing over your DC.
Neptune and Chiron are both conjunct the planets in your 6th house.
So I would take all of those things as transformative experiences- with your home, hobbies, father, routines, or job- your health and your old wounds coming back up............
Transiting Saturn is also squaring your natal Sun and Jupiter in the 5th. (wide sq to Jup)
Possibly limiting your ability to be open with your father? and restrictions with all things 5th house....that Sat sq. jup will be limiting your natural openness and free thinking......
If you want me to look into it more PM me.
But those are the things I would look for, to answer your question.

Holy shit, you're GOOD . I'd be grateful if you PM me with any more insight. I am familiar with all of the components of your aspect descriptions, as well as the symbolism of the planets, yet I cannot for the life of me string them together to tell a story. This is actually the same problem I have with Tarot. So I do appreciate such insight from you, though I prefer to see it as descriptive rather than predictive.

I have been shown recently that Chiron is instrumental for me personally as it represents many of the themes that move me through life... and details you may have on its aspects as well as its position in my natal chart would be appreciated .

p.s. I am flattered to learn that my chart info is saved with you .

 

[Unbreakable]

Sweet i am Capricorn also

^What do you mean Taurus rules the natural 8th?

I meant to write "my natal 8th"

Darned sloppy Arians

and ocean is a great astrologer. It's a pleasure to read her posts and discuss these matters with her.

 

[Unbreakable]

Do you guys believe certain zodiac signs are better suited for you because of your sign?

I am a Capricorn and from what i read it seems that my best match ups are Cancer,Taurus,Pisces or Virgo...

 

[Jabberwocky]

Traditionally an Earth sign gets along best with the other two earth signs, so for Capricorn Taurus and Virgo. But you have many other planets in signs and houses and in aspect so many astrologers hate generalizing from sun sign alone but will do it a bit after having made the qualification that doing so is sloppy. And the water signs would be next for a Capricornisces, Scorpio and Cancer. People might say Cancer is the best potential mate for a Capricorn as it is opposite on the wheel, but again that is way to simple.

 

[malakaix]

Im curious how this may effect some, if at all.

On March 19, 2011 the Moon will pass by Earth at a distance of 356,577 kilometers - the closest pass in 18 years. In short, Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line, with Moon in its nearest approach to Earth.

^This is called a Supermoon.
(I thought it happened on the 18th....) anyway- tides are usually higher than normal, things like earthquakes, tsunamis, floods etc start happening around supermoons.
I will have to look but I was reading about this coming supermoon a few days ago-
Astronomers dismiss it all but astrologers see Supermoons as very significant.

 

[Mariposa]

I came in to post about the supermoon and the chart for the earthquake/tsunami!

Alan Oken did a great writeup which is too lengthy to post in full. You can find it on the facebook page for "Alan Oken Wisdom of Astrology". I'm really excited he's coming back to the US (he lives in Bali) and he will be giving a $7 lecture in SEATTLE in April!

Work safe (as long as your boss doesn't think you're a wingnut for having an interest in astrology!).

NSFW:

From the astrological perspective the Spring Equinox at 0º Aries on March 20th marks the beginning of the zodiacal year. Symbolically we can see this very first degree of the zodiac as the emergence of the potential creative force of consciousness. In essence, the cosmos is giving us another chance to become our Self and in the act of that becoming, to BE.

This is a very special Aries month for us all—and especially for those brothers and sisters who are born under the sign of the Heavenly Ram. During the month of Aries 2011, at one time or another six planets will be present in this fiery part of the heaves: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and perhaps most significantly, Uranus. Uranus is known as the “Father of Archetypes” as his purpose in your natal horoscope is to individualize any area in the map that it touches. It thus indicates that part of your life that makes you different from most other people.

But Uranus is not alone in Aries, he is also with Jupiter and Mars. This only happens once in approximately every 505 years, the last time was in 1595. Uranus and Jupiter together in the Ram signify important events in international relations but since Mars, the god of war is also present, such relations point to violence and upset. These three planets together also point to intense religious conflicts. If you are interested in doing a little research, just “google” the year 1595 and see what you come up with, I promise you it will be very interesting. Also examine the period from 1927 to 1934 when Uranus was last in Aries and you will see that this was the time of the Great Depression and the rise of nationalistic fascism. History repeats itself because the great astrological cycles also repeat themselves and that ancient dictum “As Above, So Below” is indeed true. As England is a nation ruled by Aries, I would expect a lot of turbulence to take place now and over the course of the next few years in that nation, joyous royal wedding notwithstanding.

I believe that the month of Aries will be a very violent one for the world as the urge for personal freedom (Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars in Aries) meets up with strong resistance from the established order (Saturn in Libra opposing and Pluto in Capricorn). In terms of our personal lives, it is important for us to look at where we are holding on to old patterns that no longer serve a greater vision of ourselves. If these transits in the cardinal signs are especially strong in your chart (affecting people with prominent positions in Aries, Libra, Cancer, and Capricorn), the questions I would be asking at this time are:

1. What is the difference between my true social and personal responsibilities and the psychological impediments I put in my own way to block my life´s progress?
2. Where are the areas of my life where society has imposed certain rules and regulations but which I feel are entrapping my real creativity and urge to be?
3. How may I create a “point of resolution” both within myself and in my outer life to resolve these issues?
4. What are my real motivations for either activity or resistance to activity?

This is so absolutely spot on. I will post a Blog entry of my own. With my chart ruler Mercury being conjunct the now-transiting Uranus right at my 7th house angle... I am expecting a lot of surprises. I'll either wind up married or sued lol.

More on the supermoon. Here's a live feed from the International Space Station!

I had scanned an article on the Supermoon that took place this morning at 11:10 am Pacific Time- but my adobe program does not convert pdf files to jpg.'s so I wasn't able to post it now (though I will work on doing this with my father's comp later tonight)

Mariposa, Alan Oken wrote the article in quotes???

In it , it says :

If these transits in the cardinal signs are especially strong in your chart (affecting people with prominent positions in Aries, Libra, Cancer, and Capricorn), the questions I would be asking at this time are:

Saturn in Libra does not oppose Capricorn, it squares it, and even that it is a wide square. Saturn is at 15 deg Libra and Pluto is at 7 deg Capricorn.......
At the time of the equinox Sat is at 14 deg Libra (Rx) and Pluto at 7 Cap. - that is a 7 degree orb......The closest it will get will be right after the sun moves into Taurus I think when it reaches 10 or ww deg Libra.


**edit: I think he meant Saturn in Libra opposing the Aries planets and SQUARING Pluto
I misread it, and I think the article had a typo! haha

I would say that since Uranus is at 0 deg-2 deg (during the Aries Sun) people with planets in late Pisces,Virgo, Sag and Gemini would be effected by that part of things- as well as those in early Leo.......

Under an Aries Sun, we do have Merc going retrograde in Aries, to keep it hanging out in that sign twice as long as usual For me, this is in my 7th/6th houses.

Jammy- You'll be feeling things as these Aries planets move over 1, 12 and 21 deg Aries. Right now Jupiter is at 12 deg aries which is squaring your natal Sun which is could make things seem both overwhelming at times and broaden your horizons......You may be able to use this as (square) a turning point in how you approach things with all things 5th house (father, hobbies, creative expression etc.) It may feel, some days that you are unable to tap into the openminded side of yourself (especially around the late teens early 20's of April) with Mars and Mercury joining Jupiter in the square to your natal Capricorn planets.....Jupiter by this time will be JUST out of making a square to your sun but will then be squaring your natal Jupiter. I would expect things to be pretty active for your through out both April and May. Lots of reworking and changes in thought process. (Again, I still owe you a PM on all of this and WILL do it)

Posa- With all of your Aries,early Virgo, late Libra, and late Sag action going on I expect these next few months to be pretty active for you as well Probably more on the positive side since it will all interact with your natal Grand Trine.

Keni too- You have a few planets in Capricorn, Aries and MC in Libra (with Saturn conjunct there) - In early to Mid Aries they'll be making sextiles to the planets you have in Gemini in your 6th.....I know you have some job things going on so I would expect job things to continue thorough while these planets are in Aries, and Pluto in early Capricorn (loooong lasting) will be effecting "career decisions" vs "job" (if you know what I mean.)

Who else's chart do I have.........

PiP- You may be effected with your three planets in mid Libra in your third. (3rd house is transportation, communication,siblings etc.) Aries opposes Libra so that aspect is a little more difficult- watch for miscommunications and protect that new laptop for when Merc RX's over those planets
Other than that it'll likely be positive with trines into Leo.

Oh crap- I have a number of BLers charts so I'd be doing this all damn day if I continued

But I knew that you all (Above) had strong Cardinal and Fire sign things happenin' so I wanted to look while here.

Anyway- was going to discuss what the article I had copied was talking about but this post is damn long!!!
I believe the moon has now moved into Libra, so I hope you all enjoyed the Full Moon Vibe this morning!! They say the Full Moon energy lasts until the next full moon- so even though we'll be going through the motions, I would expect to see things keep the same type of vibe that has been going on today.........

What do you think?

Oh and Mariposa, I'm going to have to think on those questions listed at the end of that quote.....Thanks for that article!!

 

[ocean]

^I know......I will PM you at some point with looking at those things- I owe Jammy a PM too.
Just been preoccupied and haven't really been up for it-
When I typed the above I had the charts pulled up and just figured I'd have a look though.
I need to have a good look at my own damn chart!! hahah I haven't done that in a while!

 

[ocean]

^??? I don't understand.
But okay......let me know if you want me to look at it later then......
You had asked about something so I thought that was what you were referring to but the above post has me confused.

 

[ocean]

So I figured out how to scan into jpg form so now I can deliver articles of interest :D YAY!
So, a little late but here is the article on the Full Moon and the chart for today (and Jullian Assange's chart)

NSFW:

Hope it is big enough to read- we will see...........

Edit: Next time I hope they'll be clearer- This mag was pretty beat up :D

I WAS JUST COMING HERE TO POST ABOUT ARIES TIME MOTHERFUCKERS, GET READY BECAUSE HERE I COME!!!!1111!!!!11!1

can anyone really blame me for loving this time? it's not cold anymore, and down south where I thrive, it isn't hot as shit yet. I always feel electric and literally on fire for this month, it's incredible.

http://wordsforthepeople.com/2011/03/uranus-in-aries-part-1/

This is a fascinating time to be alive and it’s about to get even more interesting as Uranus enters Aries on Friday, March 11 for a seven-year tour. We’ve already felt the advent of Uranus onto the grid of the world horoscope (zero degrees of the cardinal signs) in the last several weeks as dictatorships have toppled in the Middle East and the people have awakened from their slumber in normally staid Midwestern states such as Wisconsin and Ohio. (Can you believe people peacefully occupied the Wisconsin Capitol for two solid weeks?)
Uranus awakens within us the desire to be free and we can expect this revolutionary spirit to continue growing worldwide over the next couple years as Uranus remains within striking distance of the powerful Aries Point and also replaces Saturn in square aspect to Pluto. Saturn-Pluto periods always tend to bring times of conservatism, debt, crushing economic circumstances, crackdowns, cutbacks and other restrictive circumstances. Uranus-Pluto, on the other hand, is a signature for eruptions of soul energy into the world.

fuck yeahs


another planetary breakdown from DK Brainard

• The Aries Point – the first degree of the zodiac and the foundation of the “cardinal cross” or the grid of the world horoscope.
• Uranus – the planet of sudden awakening, enlightenment, shock, lightning-like illumination and destruction of the old; Uranus entered Aries on March 11, 2011 for a seven-year visit.
• Pluto – the planet of deep soul energies, of that which is buried, repressed, and hidden, “the underneath,” archetype of the unconscious and its power, and of the drive for power (often unconsciously motivated), the process of death and rebirth; Pluto transits Capricorn from 2009 to 2023.
• Aries – the sign of initiation, beginnings, risk-taking, pioneering, the search for identity, survival, selfishness.
• Capricorn – the sign of systems, structure, ambition, and world structures such as government, religion, economics, politics, and the corporate world.

and what happened this last time:

Richard Tarnas identifies the following as among the major recurring themes of the Uranus-Pluto cycle:

• The activation of mass energies and mass movements of various kinds
• Changes in the global balance of power
• Large demographic shifts
• Increased drive for freedom and autonomy at both the individual and collective level
• Intensified ecological activism
• Accelerated technological and scientific advance

get the fuck ready, Mariposa, Pander Bear and Kenickie be killin' it this month

Yes, that is Oken's article. It's available in its entirety here on his webpage.

He's my absolute favorite astrologer. Did he goof?! That would be a first! He's quite the crackshot; Sun in Aries with a heavy dose of Scorpio. He teaches in seven languages. Please wish him a Happy Solar Return on March 28th! Also, he's giving a talk in Seattle on April 7 for $10. If you would like to attend with me, I think we can make it happen. I've never met him in person and that needs to change! I will forward you the info, which is also on the WA Astrological Society webpage. I'm tentative but likely to attend at present.

I had a mostly awesome day for the Supermoon. It made a dead hit on my Asc (28'59" Virgo)! I wrote in my personal (handwritten) journal about the questions. Some of it is a bit not-suited-for-public-consumption. I think the questions are important ones for anyone of any sign to answer. I'll post an edited version of my answers.

Assange's chart - let's see what happens when we get clean data. I can't really work with C ratings ethically. On appearance by house placement, though, Sun in 8th and Moon in 12th would most definitely indicate a persecuted whistleblower.

get the fuck ready, Mariposa, Pander Bear and Kenickie be killin' it this month

Fuck yeah! Mars is even in Aries for all our birthdays!

The winter is over in the Northern Hemisphere. It's time for proactivity and celebration even though the shit is hitting the fan all over the world. Let's get this party started. No one can throw a party like an Aries!

I might want to attend this seminar......fwd me the info please.
I know someone else who might want to join us.
