Transformative Times

January 5th, 2009 by Leith Masters

Happy New Year!!! 2009 and all is fine! Or is it? Indeed we have much to learn this year.

The vibration of the year is a 2. Indicating lots of relationship work. Focus on win win deals. Pluto has entered Capricorn, back in November 2008. So it has been shaking up the business world like their ain’t no tomorrow!! And unfortunately for many, this is the outcome, a savage and irreconciable loss of the hand they had “gambled’.

Lets not forget that Pluto comes to Capricorn after it’s riotous time of 14 years in Sagittarius, laughing, telling stories, gambling, chatting up a storm. But the party is over, and some of us find we have been dealt a very fragile hand, that has been stretched too far. It has quickly folded and been lost. Pluto is ruthless when it cleans house, and the carnage is great.

But of course, from every death, comes a rebirth, so the quick adapters are already moving.
It is a time of revolutionary business. The stronghold of the banks has been hurt and shards of organic interaction between players is becoming better facilitated and a confidence is growing about exchanging resources to kick start enterprise. It is a more utopian way of doing business that will result in a better distribution of resources and business code of conduct.

Tomorrow, being the 6th, we see Jupiter enter Aquarius. This ends it’s 12 month stint in Capricorn where it would have felt quite restricted. So we will continue to expand now with a focus on the people, as it enters Aquarius, and less on the heirachy and feeding the ‘pyramid’ which sees all the resources sitting at the top of the pyramid in 1% of the population. Jupiter will take us on a journey of equality for all people and creatures. It is the freedom fighter working with the planet of good luck and optimism. It will be an embarrassment to be found to be holding large sums of resources but to be doing nothing that is qualifiable as helping the planet and others in some way. This will not come easy for many.

There is no question that we must evolve, those who are ready for this massively transformative time will fair best. Those who cannot open their mind to alternative pathways, will struggle.

Some guidelines to assist in recognising a peaceful pathway…
walk lightly on the planet
helping is essential, one must give in order to receive, this is the cyclical nature of being, thus hoarding resources is a waste of time and causes dis-ease. Building enterprise however, is not.
guidance will come from a quiet mind

So tomorrow morning when you open your eyes, it truly is a New Dawn. Say hello to Jupiter in Aquarius. We have this lovely energy to work with all year. It should be a great year of mateship, of learning from people who are just acquaintances, of expanding one’s reality via meetings in large groups of people. People will come together to create opportunity, joy, laughter, tell stores and philosophy about making the planet a better place for all.

But be cautious also, Capricorn has only just opened the front door to Pluto, and it will be a long stay, until January 2024. There is much to do.

Have a great year!!!


About Your Sun Sign

January 27th, 2008 by Leith Masters

Our Sun Sign, also commonly known as our Star Sign, is one of the most public parts of our astrology chart. Thus, why we are interested to know and understand our own, and other peoples Sun Sign. Because Astrology is the oldest body of knowledge on the planet, even if you know nothing about it, in the deepest levels of our ancient memory resonates some tiny grain of familiarity if someone says, ‘I’m a Libra, or a Sagittarius’, or any of the twelve signs.

Our Sun Sign is what we go out into the world and do. So whilst there are many other factors in our charts that contribute to our personality, the Sun Sign hints at some of our most primary motivations. To know someone’s Sun Sign is to give you an added tool in your survival belt as to how this other person may be motivated to behave.

Harnessing the true energy of our Sun Sign, takes many years. Indeed, it is recognised that it is not possible to have mastered it until 35 years and older. This is one and a quarter cycles of Saturn. To learn more about Saturn, see it’s blog.

In the meantime, we give it to the people around us to wear for us and thus begins the understanding of ‘Projection’ and why our relationships are so integral to our personal development. See other more in depth blogs about astrology as they continue to appear on this site.

In the interim enjoy the short bursts of description about the primary motivations of each sign. Don’t forget, as these blend with the the other planets, in their signs, in a persons chart, we begin to see the makings of each of our complex personalities.
