The term solstice comes from the Latin “sol” meaning the sun and “sistere” meaning to stand and at the winter solstice the Sun does seem to stand still very low in the sky for a period of 3 days. The ancients honoured the Sun as a life giving force and worked in harmony with nature and the seasons. During the winter months as the crops became dormant and life seemed … Continue reading →
We are right in the middle of a Mercury retrograde and this is often accompanied by superstition and anxiety about all sorts of things going awry. Mercury retrogrades about three times each year for approximately three weeks, so how can we learn to flow with this energy and use these periods constructively. When a planet retrogrades it appears to be moving backwards through the zodiac from our perspective on Earth. This occurs due to the relative speeds and positions of the planets involved, which are in fact both moving forwards in their orbit around the Sun. The retrograde phenomenon is all … Continue reading →
April brings big shifts; symbolised by four planets changing direction. Both Jupiter and Venus are currently in retrograde motion which means that they appear to move backwards through the zodiac from the perspective of the Earth. Venus will change direction and move forward as from 15 April, whereas Saturn, Mercury and Pluto will all commence their retrograde journey on 6th, 10th and 24th April respectively. We may feel pulled in different directions, that things are slowing down, frustration at not moving forward and this may require us to rethink our direction. Saturn relates to form, structure and groundwork and this … Continue reading →
The cosmic journey continues in February with a Solar Eclipse in Pisces. Eclipses temporarily disrupt the normal pattern of moon cycles and can create similar disruption collectively and individually. These cosmic spotlights illuminate our journey through life and reorient us on our path of soul growth; often stimulating significant change to habitual and comfortable behaviours (south node) as we reach towards the challenges inherent in our north node. They act like portals, allowing us access to information from other dimensions and assisting us in moving forward on our path of destiny. During a solar eclipse the Sun, associated with the … Continue reading →
We start the new year with a host of planets in the sign of Pisces. Neptune, Chiron and the South Node continue their longer term journey through Pisces and have been joined by Mars (in Pisces from 20 December 2016 – 28 January 2017) and Venus (4 January – 4 February 2017). Under the strong influence of Pisces we might feel creatively inspired, absorbed in daydreams, imaginative, a pull to be near water, to rest, meditate, to be introspective and more easily be able to access subtle realms of consciousness. We can often feel overwhelmed, unclear and lower in physical … Continue reading →
As we approach Christmas, in the Southern Hemisphere we will also be approaching the summer solstice which marks the longest day and the shortest night of the calendar year. The term solstice comes from the Latin “sol” meaning the sun and “sistere” meaning to stand. At the solstice the Sun does seem to stand still for about 3 days as it reaches its furthest point from the celestial equator in its apparent journey around the earth. The ancients honoured the Sun as a life giving force. With the Sun being at its maximum power and impact, the solstice was celebrated … Continue reading →
