Morning Star: Daily Astrology for July 25, 2014

What Saturn has repressed, Jupiter is now lighting up. Jupiter expands. Saturn contracts. Do you have planets from 0-15 degrees fixed (Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius)? Jupiter is going to fire those planets up.

When this happens, everything about that planet (good or bad) is under the spotlight for you to examine. Then, there is Mars.

When Mars follows Saturn he activates and puts into motion what Saturn stomped on. We have a chance to employ what we have learned...or not.
 

So. Early fixed degrees. What did you learn when Saturn was in early Scorpio? Are you going to use that knowledge? Or are you going to fall back into past habit patterns?

Saturn entered Scorpio on Oct 6 2012. I remember it well. I have many planets at the end of Libra and was counting the days for Saturn's exit from that sign. Saturn stationed Rx for the first time in Scorpio in February 2013 at about 11 degrees. He traveled backward all the way to 4 degrees before turning direct on July 2013. Most recently, Saturn in Scorpio stationed retrograde again at 23 degrees on March 1 2014 and is now direct at 16 degrees Scorpio.

If you have planets between 0 and 16 degrees Fixed, your Saturn experience is over for awhile in regard to those planets.

I am seeing MANY early degree Scorpio Mars folks who are staring down the barrel of a complete life overhaul. Some have chosen to do this. Some have had circumstances forced upon them and they have no choice but to endure change. One client advised that she had been told the last time Mars returned to Scorpio after such an extended stay in Libra was 1982. Mars entered Scorpio in December of that year after a Mars Rx period in Libra.

But, this is what Mars in Scorpio does. It overhauls. It can start 100% completely from scratch and forage until it has built something new. Scorpio Mars is the animal you found that you thought for sure was dead but then suddenly, it sprang back to life. Scorpio Mars survives. Sometimes it kills itself just so it can be born again. As a matter of fact, one thing that Scorpio Mars is to learn is that you don't have to go to such extreme measures. There is middle ground. Pluto ruled planets seem to forget that, in general.

There is a lot of energy that is going to be restored in Scorpio (and the other fixed signs too) over the next couple of months. I'd say it will be interesting to watch. Scorpio Mars is the Phoenix. We have endured Mars in Libra. Now, we can either burn ourselves completely to the ground...or rise.

For the rest of us, Mars in Scorpio is here to revitalize, give us endurance and perhaps put a little lust in our loins. Power.

My exact statement that I used to illustrate someone witnessing the effects of Mars into Scorpio was, “That thing came out of that grave like a turkey with its ass on fire! Wait a minute, that's no turkey...that is the Phoenix!” Honestly, my mouth waters a bit just thinking about it.
 

I'm happy to know the world is about to get its drive back. I hope that there were actions and plans that were thwarted during Mars' trek in Libra for good reason. And, I hope that some of those with dastardly plans that were foiled, have since changed their minds. Didn't think about that, did you? Your plans may have been knocked down a time or two. So was everyone else's...even the bad guys!

We certainly had time to evaluate whether what we wanted to do or planned to achieve was worth it by now after having to scramble to get back up every time that Mars in Libra pushed us down. Hopefully we learned a little about ourselves in the process too.
 

Speaking of which, there is new Moon tomorrow in Leo. Mars enters Scorpio tonight at 10:25 PM. We realize, wait a minute, that animal is not dead! Then, with the new Moon, there is a chance to present this revitalized animal to the world. You are awake! You are alive! Who are you? What parts have died completely? What parts are reborn renewed and more resilient...wiser, more capable, stronger? Yeah? Prove it.
 
 

This morning, we wake up to Mercury in Cancer trine Chiron in Pisces (5:42 AM EDT). Our Moon in Cancer is waxing toward a square with Uranus in Aries (7:50 AM), trine with Saturn (8:09 AM) and conjunction with Mercury in Cancer (9:55 AM).

CLEAR!

SCHWOMP

Still no rhythm, Doctor.

CLEAR!

SCHWOMP

Doctor! It's alive! IT'S ALIVE!

Now, lets see what this beast can do.

(sounds an awful lot like Shock Therapy to me)
