This ascendant descendant conjunction does a very interesting thing in the chart. It creates a synastry energy where all the houses for the whole chart are conjunct to their opposite house in the partner’s chart. This really highlights this magnetic quality to this conjunction and creates a situation where each individual holds the balance that the other needs in EVERY astrological energy represented in the houses.
Fomalhaut, located at 3°52’ of Pisces, is one of the four Royal Stars associated with our 4 most familiar archangels. Archangel Gabriel is associated with Fomalhaut and is known as the Watcher of the South.
Finally, we have come to the end of 2020! This is what we’ve all been waiting for, the chance, the hope upon hope of returning to “normal.” 2020 was the year of the Fool… an unexpected new adventure/journey/experience. If we look at the image of the innocent Fool we can almost imagine there’s a roll of toilet paper in that little pack over his shoulder. It’s fair to say that we have definitely had a shock to our systems in 2020.
Ahhhh Mars, firey ruler of Aries and co-ruler of Scorpio. Usually he doesn’t slip by unnoticed. In relationships he wears many hats, some super sexy and some super painful… but always HOT to the touch. When he contacts sensitive points or planets in our composite charts, synastry, or natal charts, issues and emotions can become inflamed.
On December 21, 2020 we will have a Great Conjunction at 0° of Aquarius. A Great Conjunction is when the planetary giants Jupiter and Saturn conjunct or occupy the same degree in the sky. This will be visible as a new “Star of Bethlehem.”
We have entered the Gemini/Sagittarius eclipse season of 2020 with a full moon lunar eclipse in Gemini conjunct fixed star and starseed marker, Aldebaran, on 11/30/20 followed by a new moon solar eclipse in Sagittarius on 12/14/20.
You may already be familiar with how Astrology and Tarot are connected. There are cards representing each sign of the zodiac and cards representing each of the planets. Lucky for this 3rd decan Virgo who loves to make high quality magic from details, there’s a whole lot more. There are tarot cards that represent the energy contained in each of the 3 decans of each sign of the zodiac. This means that your birth chart (natal chart) can be read using these cards.
By now, we’re all quite accustomed to the sensation of our inner smoldering. Isn’t it funny how it doesn’t become more comfortable over time?
As a metaphysician, I look beyond the obvious for guidance, explanation, and answers. I look to the sky, to the spirits, to the cards, to my higher and deeper knowing.
It’s 8/8! Happy Lion’s Gate Portal! Except…. It’s not a thing. At least, not in the way you’re being told. Unfortunately, New Age and spiritual information is often simply a copy/paste situation with no individual thought or research applied.
The Devil is probably the most misunderstood card in the tarot, especially for those indoctrinated with Western culture. For the mystic, the Devil is one of, if not THE most important mysteries to penetrate on the journey toward Unity Consciousness (being one with the higher aspects of self).
When Venus transits Taurus, we as the human collective have the opportunity to notice what is missing in our value system. During this first cardinal phase, if we remain cool-headed, we can use this energy to see where there are “cold spots” in our self-love and our core values. This is how we teach others how to treat us. This can be an uncomfortable and confronting exercise, but if we devote ourselves to this work, we only stand to benefit.
Mercury is rather uncomfortable in Pisces. Our quick-witted planet of thought, communication, technology, and expression likes things to be oh so precise and efficient. The symbol for Pisces is two fish swimming in opposite directions, and Mercury finds this frustrating and debilitating.
