SATURN & MARS SQUARE EXACT TODAY


Saturn and Mars square is exact today - so all day, path of least resistance sounds a good idea! Cruise, cruise, cruise - relax, lie back put your feet up - chill out!

What lessons do they bring? Can't force anything - can't force life, we ain't that powerful! Life unfolds at it's own natural pace - it is connected to divine intelligence it knows how and what to do.

The Deva-line Flower Essence Honeysuckle would be a great ally today!

Honeysuckle 'promotes understanding of ‘natural timing’. That everything flowers in it’s own time, that forcing & grabbing only create frustration, impatience & difficulties. That life force is propelling all direction & we need to be in sync with that. Everything happens in it’s own time beautifully & effortlessly – let go, let ‘flower’'.

The Deva-line Flower Essence brochure in July archives on this site.

So have a great day and use the amazing energy given to us to learn and grow -to appreciate more and more the wondrous life we've been given.

lotsa luv to you all

MOON IN ARIES

Moon in Aries for a couple of days - time for stretching, out of the gorgeous dream laden sleep of the Pisces Moon, into gettin into doin!

Was a beautiful Pisces Moon weekend - lazy, hazy days cocooned in comfort and safety - free to explore the imagination! My favourite Moon!

Well it's Monday and the Moon's full of energy, fresh into Aries - 0 degrees 42 minutes to be exact! She's gathering her strength, stretching those muscles, coming back to 'reality' (from her dream-state) and is ready, ready for action!

Moon in Aries adds extra strength to all that Mars (and Saturn) energy around at present - it could mean that the way you feel inside (Moon), your feelings and emotions are pretty much in sync with the 'general' vibe around!

I guess the energy is useful for a Monday - just take your time, don't get too overheated, spoon out dollops of kindness and streams of patience - and you should be able to get a lot done.

I haven't left the house yet - still 'trying' to hang on to my Pisces mood - let go Marilyn and get with the action.

It will be an interesting coupla days (Aries is my challenge!!).


much love

THE SATURN AND MARS ULTIMATUM

Saturn and Mars are 'challenging' each other is the sky at present. In Astro jargon they are 'squaring' each other - at a 90 degree aspect to each other. This is a challenging aspect and is hard to ignore - it's sort of 'in your face' type vibe.

As you may or may not know, Mars has to do with action - action, action, action - and he likes his own way, he can be a wee bit forceful in his enthusiastic push ahead. He likes action and adventure - NOW! He doesn't have a lot of patience for standing around. He's got stuff to do and he's doing it.

Mars is sitting in the constellation of Gemini at present - which means, his 'action' is very mentally oriented. There's a lot going on 'up stairs' so to speak, a lot going thru the old cerebellum. Thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts - and those ideas are demanding immediate action! Some Skullcap tea might be helpful at present - at the very lease Chamomile! I'd be opting for Skullcap myself, kerpow, like air being deflated from a balloon - it relaxs almost instantly!

So why do we need to keep a rein on that overactive mentality? To protect your brain number one - and also that, oh so delicate, nervous system.

So suffice to say it's a 'heady' time. But now add Saturn to the mix! Saturn at any time can be a handful, but when he decides to get 'heavy' well god help us! He is the master of heavy! Heavy, heavy, heavy he can become. He has his good points, don't get me wrong, but when he's grumpy, he can make things very difficult.

So Saturn and Mars are in the ring and applying their full force - what can that mean? Well for a start i'd be steering clear of all or any aggro at present - don't even entertain the thought of picking a fight - no matter how teeny. Pour on the sweetness and light - the gentleness and love - make it thick. You could notice people being a little testy at present - they are! So you be the beacon of love and light - even if sometimes you wanna smash em!

What are the good things about this dance - well let me think! I'm thinking, i'm thinking - hold on!!! There's gotta be some good! Just joking, of course there is - just have to turn on my Mars in Gemini and search the greying matter of my grey matter - for them.

Found some! For a start, Mars and Saturn have to cool it a bit and see the glorious strengths in each other! My first reaction to that was 'boy! Can they really do that!' Then i thought 'of course they can, don't we live in the magick of the limitless, all pervading space of divine intelligence?' Yeah! Of course it's possible!!

So Mars is all about action, action, action and Saturn is all about 'doing it right, the first time!' It 'appears' that Saturn tries to stuff it all up by continually putting up resistance and creating obstacles - but he ain't really! He just wants and needs to have it right!! First time! No building these huge creations on sand - what a complete waste of time (which Saturn rules!) - 'cause they'll fall down and have to be rebuilt again. Saturn hates wasting time - he knows its importance. So he'll make bloody sure it's done right the first time, even if that means obstacle after obstacle, block after block, resistance after resistance.

But we've got patience, haven't we? To build our lives right? To employ the utmost care and consideration in the choice of our building materials? There is absolutely no use in complaining or getting frustrated - 'cause with Saturn there are no shortcuts! "None?" "That's right none!"

So as always - the bountiful mercy of the creator has bestowed on us the ability to choose - and we have discovered, this 'choice' creates our life. So now you have the 'facts' (from Marilyn's perspective!!!) how are you going to choose to act with Saturn by your side? If i were you, i probably wouldn't be in a hurry to do anything at present - except to be clear!

The magick of life is helping us constantly - what an impressive world we live in.

lotsa luv to you all

USE THIS ENERGY AVAILABLE NOW!

Today is Eclipse Time! 10.26am Adelaide time (where i sit) - and 10.56 am Eastern Oz time!
It is also the time of LAMMAS today - the 3rd cross quarter day - the midpoints of the Solstice and Equinox times. The LAMMAS point is 15 degrees Leo (my Pluto!!!! and probably a few other baby boomers!) and that's around 2pm today.

In 'old' times the cross quarter days were understood to be the most powerful energy portals of the year! The rhythm of the seasons runs deep in our bones - whether we are conscious of it or not.

So - how can i, how can you use this energy to assist with the transformation that is now pounding on our doors?

The divine intelligence, Mother Nature, works always toward balance and unity, cohesion and sustainability. Her focus is for life and regeneration.

This powerful time has been given to us to use - now - see it, feel it, use it!!
Use it to help you make the changes that now confront you - use this magickal time for healing.

Mother Nature's magick is with us always - she is powerful beyond measure - she holds, cradles and nurtures the intelligence for growth and sustainability.

It is well beyond time that we stop and listen to her! She may not remain so patient.

Have a super wonderful day - yes it may get a little intense at times - but use this intensity - take the reins of your life and direct it into the spot of your choosing. You have that power!

lots of love to you all

Floating in calm waters

Learning from our friends!

I really like ducks - and i really like water - i took a whole lot of shots of ducks gliding above the water on a beautiful sunny day in the magnificent area of Nth NSW.
They (ducks) always look so relaxed as they glide across the top of the water - with the occasional dunking to get some food! They don't appear to have a worry in the world - just enjoying the day! And i enjoy the day watching them.

I'm not sure if the calm looking waters in the photo above are really symbolic of the waters on which we find ourselves at present, attempting to cross - are they calm, are they choppy or is it all just our perception?

Being an Astrologer, i can't help but feel the 'disruptive' energies from our powerful neighbours. Not disruption for its own sake - but the need to break open the destructive illusion in which we've ensconced ourselves. The energies being created by the movement of the planets in our solar system at present - particularly those of the outer planets - are major indeed. It's quite possible that what is occurring at present hasn't happened, if ever, in a very, very long time. Yes, every time is unique - but these times are beyond anything we could have imagined. Yes, they are big indeed!

So how do we steer ourselves across this rampant body of water? What tools do we have at our disposal to use? How can we assure our success?

Certain structures are obviously needed in our lives - our personal lives and our collective lives. The real purpose of any structure is to support that which it has been created for. The purpose always has to be for the continuance and safety of life - for the happiness and enjoyment of all the participants - for the evolvement and growth of all involved and for the protection of the planet on which we live and also our interplanetary neighbours.

Do our structures work in this way? Or do they work to support and nourish only 'certain parts' of the whole?

This is crunch time! It 'seems' we, as a collective here on Earth, have 'gotten away' with a lot of 'sins'. Seems we are invincible, can do whatever we like, like tyrants, with no consideration for the consequences. Gladly and sadly (for some) this time has come to an end.

This is not just gobble-gi-gook from crazy 'alternative' or 'new age' soothsayers - this is happening!

And i reckon most people, especially in the 'western culture' are 'sensing' that big changes are on the way.

Here in the west we've just become greedy - hypnotized by the capital culture to 'have more' - to 'be' someone - to show we've 'achieved' something. At what cost has this come? Most and foremost at the cost of the Earth. What have we done to her? Raped her, that's what! And we continue? Have you seen those gaping bloody holes in the earth - the barren, broken, treeless lands, the parched landscapes, the diseased vegetation and the fields, upon fields, upon fields, upon fields, upon fields, upon fields of GM brightly coloured, weed free crops - magically growing with only rain fall (pull the other leg) - all of these sites are simply heartbreaking for those with hearts.

Have you heard the Earth cry? I have and i was surprised! I thought because i had European heritage and white skin that the land didn't talk to me. But it did - i heard it's cry, it crushed my heart, i cried. 'What have they done to you?' i muttered

I wrote

I heard it speak
it said to me
"I hurt, I'm in pain
look what they've done to me"

Quite unexpected it came
a city girl i've often been
didn't expect the land to speak to me

The heart within me felt the pain
the same life sustains us both

"Oh my god!" i said

tears came to my eyes
"why have they done this to you?"

Human beings
where has our feeling gone?

Awaken, awaken
the danger time has come

Treaty. . . . .now

written in Palmwoods, Mullumbimby 1993


16yrs have passed since then - what have we learnt and what have we done in these last 16yrs - built empires, acquired massive wealth, raped the land again and again and again and again.

The danger time has really now come!!!

Time for a genuine shift in our paradigm - no more energy for the old, not without a lot of struggle - shift our direction, our focus to the birth of the new, life focused on the living.


lotsa luv to you all
