This morning we wake up to the Moon in
Capricorn in sextile to Mercury (6:01 AM) and Saturn (the Moon's
current ruler) preparing to turn retrograde at 9:11 AM. Saturn spends
half the year in retrograde and half of it direct. Saturn retrograde
will call you to adhere to your own set of standards. Here is what I
mean by that. If there were no laws in the world, period, how would
you behave? With no one to tell you right from wrong, would you still
know the difference between the two?
That is not to say that enforcement of
established laws doesn't occur under Saturn retrograde. What it means
is there isn't so much of a feeling of “Big Brother” looking over
your shoulder. The “teacher” has turned his back on the classroom
momentarily. The children are called to muster up their own sense of
discipline (or not) during this time. The teacher WILL turn back
around or re-enter the classroom eventually. How will he catch you
behaving? Are you launching spit balls at Susie across the room? Or
are you holding yourself accountable and taking the time to read
ahead in your school books? How is your level of self-regulation and
self-discipline? Or do you have to have someone standing over you in
order to hold the line? I think we've seen how some “students”
can behave when they are not being regulated by an outside authority
in Oklahoma. In response, we also saw how some students pulled
together in an effort to draw attention to how wrong this type of
behavior is. This IS the personification of the expression of Saturn
at a station point. Both examples call upon a personal doctrine of
accountability as there is no outside authority figure regulating
either of these two bodies in their decisions. Both sides will
eventually be held accountable for any actions they take by an
outside authority figure. But, right now, they are calling their own
shots based on a set of personal standards. I don't think it's a
coincidence that the group making most of the noise on either side of
this is none other than early Pluto in Sagittarius and late Pluto in
Scorpio. Oh yeah the whole nation's mentality is involved but the
heartbeat of it lies with this group of young people right now.
Saturn will retrograde all the way back
to Scorpio before he is done. We will review all that has been built
since the time Saturn first passed these degrees. Then, when he is
direct and passes these degrees a third time, we will shore things
up, fill cracks in the foundation and adjust once more.
At 4:35 PM, our Capricorn Moon is
softened by a sextile to Neptune. Those lines of judgment and
discipline are blurred again. There's potential for tears,
forgiveness, acceptance, denial, naps and maybe a glass of wine or
shot of bourbon with dinner. Capricorn energy in sextile to Pisces
energy can create a leader who is also compassionate and riddled with
empathy. Capricorn brings structure and boundaries to Pisces while
Pisces brings a bit of softness to Capricorn. It's a nice mix,
really.
This
aspect can also bring an influx of intuitive feelings. With
that, the emotional body may pick up on the incoming tension of the
Moon preparing to meet with Uranus and Pluto. This occurs early
tomorrow morning. Picking up on said tension could create nervousness
and anxiety that interferes with our sleep—which is by no means
pleasant. There is plenty of
jittery energy pushing behind the scenes that the emotional body can
pick up on. In that steer your emotional body away from
fretting and toward releasing any sense of control you may think you
have. Because, there is stuff that will occur under this tension that
you will not have any control over. Don't waste your energy trying.
Instead steer your energy toward handling yourself through it. You
can control that. Keeping your waters clean will help (take in plenty
of good clean water and decrease the intake of chemicals and
stimulants).
Our brief point of ease winds down
today. We are thrown right back into the lake of fire tomorrow. The
passage of the Moon will temporarily re-ignite the waning conjunction
of Mars to Uranus and square to Pluto. Ground. Center. Regroup.
Meditate and take some time alone. There may be a call to course
correction and self-redirection in some of this. Get yourself under
your own control and adhere to a strong sense of personal discipline.
In that personal discipline, know that rest is just as important as
physical work. Grab some, now, if you can. There won't be much room
for it in our tomorrow. I don't want to be cliché, but, being wary
of the Ides of March is a really good idea this year.
