our collective relationship to the divine shifts away from bearded patriarchs toward recognizing our role as co-creators in global events. It means moving toward a global consciousness, a collective
self-awareness.
The Aquarian bumber sticker: one people living on one planet. The Age of Aquarius is the networking power of decentralization and democracy. Signs of its arrival include the creation of the internet, which is moving us
toward a decentralized,
information-based society.
1. The Taurus Full Moon on the 2nd opposes the Sun, Ceres and Mercury in Scorpio, emphasizing financial security issues and how to share the burdens. Resolving conflicts over money can lead to renewed intimacy with your significant other. Interactions between parents and children are highlighted, with increased communication favoring the resolution of longstanding care-taking problems.
2. Transiting Chiron trines the U.S. Mars on the 11th, around which time Team Obama may have its Afghanistan plan ready. Watch for favorable developments in other conflict zones, such as Iran, Iraq and North Korea. Chiron in Aquarius also favors a public health option, which may become viable as this aspect becomes exact.
3. Jupiter and Pallas are trine on the 14th, but in effect from the 11th through the New Moon on the 16th. Jupiter and Pallas in the social signs of Aquarius and Libra bring diverse friends and acquaintances together in a variety of engaging activities. This combination is especially favorable for healing old wounds, vision quests, and finding value and meaning in difficult situations.
4. Saturn and Pluto square each other on the 15th, a powerful outer planet dynamic in effect all month. In its most positive expression, this combination leads to constructive, fundamental changes in the way government and business function. Saturn and Pluto are also aligned with the U.S. Venus, indicating intense diplomatic efforts and increased interest in regulating financial markets, such as hedge funds.
5. Mars in Leo conjoins the U.S. Midheaven on the 25th, marking major military deployments and headline incidents of violence. Mars aspects Pluto on the 30th, perhaps indicating some large financial cuts. Due to its retrograde cycle, Mars remains near the U.S. Midheaven and Obama's Leo Sun through May 2010, pointing to growing U.S. influence and leadership in the global community.
