Awakening Astrology: Five Key Planetary Energies for Personal Transformation

Product Information

Sagittarius season begins with a burst of developments, including strong Mars, Venus, and Mercury influences as November ends. Mars enters Sagittarius on Nov 24 with an immediate square to Saturn that requires intentional actions and responses to anything you are karmically complete with. Venus in Libra conjuncts the South Node at 22 deg Libra, closing out what you have been sensing is over from eclipse season. The Gemini Full Moon on November 27 invites you to see a story differently, and Mercury is expanding into new realms through a square to Neptune and conjunction to the Galactic Center that will continue into January 2024 due to the upcoming retrograde. Much more to share in this week’s podcast episode. You don’t vibe with your go-to buddies any longer. You’ve been interested in spirituality lately, and nobody around you seems to be interested in the things you want to talk about. In recent years we have been blessed with an abundance of useful resource guides that can help direct us in this regard, including books like Conscious Evolution by Barbara Marx Hubbard and A Call for Connection by Gail Bernice Holland.) To help balance out the March/April showers — aka Saturn and Pluto changing astrological signs — there will be May flowers. McCord tells DailyOM, “ Jupiter [the planet of abundance, growth and expansion] moves into Taurus [the sign of stability and manifestation] in May, and then makes a conjunction with the North Node in Taurus in early June, which is about growth, learning, and what we’re doing in a new way. We’re understanding our own self-reliance, our new values, and how to steady ourselves among the chaos. There will be a sense of new openings and really feeling supported by the universe.”

Ketu: Ketu shows spirituality but detachment also. This is again a shadowy and planet of no physical existence. Which house is responsible for spirituality? You transcend the dual nature of the mind and are able to see that we consciously create our reality. Abraham's condition as a creature apart from God provided him the capacity to understand and appreciate God's mystery in a way not available even to God. In a similar way, the rational detachment of the Aquarian Age could similarly allow us to "know" the divine in a way that adds an important element to our evolutionary growth, by giving us a new depth of field or three-dimensionality regarding our perspective on that divine.

This has a direct analogy with the Aquarian science of astrology, for by allowing one to see life from a detached, rational standpoint, the horoscope gives a peek at the script driving one's actions and thoughts. The reaction of many people to their first horoscope reading is similar to our hypothetical actor who realized he had been a puppet, moved involuntarily, except here the controlling influences consist of planetary "programs." While initially startling, it throws the door open to new possibilities and choices because you cannot be free of your karma until you first know what it is. Remember that your purpose is linked to what you are innately good at (a skill set you already possess). 5. The Universe Communicates With You Be gentle with yourself as you go through this phase. You may encounter past fearful memories and irrational phobias. These are karmic, psychological debris within your chakras that you weren’t aware existed within you. Every astrological chart has wisdom to offer, but the array of planets, houses and signs can be bewildering. In "Awakening Astrology: Five Key Planetary Energies for Personal Transformation", professional astrologer and bestselling author Molly McCord offers an accessible path that is both easy to grasp and full of potent information.

You might feel pleasurable physical sensations—like a full-body orgasm but one that is more sensual than sexual. Old problems and even past trauma do not have the same effect on you anymore. You remember them, but they no longer bother you. Your body may shake. (This can happen if Kundalini is rising but your chakras are not clear, so the energy isn't able to flow.)Compare the sun in its mighty course with a human on Earth. Which of these two has more free will, in terms of a capacity for choice? Of course, it's the human, for while the sun may be the source of all life in our solar system, it cannot be other than what it is, nor can it willfully change its orbit. On the other hand, because of the degree to which she is removed from that position of cosmic centrality, the human is free to choose whatever direction she wants, be that a beggar, businessperson, or farmer. This applies to Aquarius as well. This sign may be 180 degrees removed from the point of luminous consciousness represented by Leo, yet for that reason it exemplifies a degree of rational choice and free will which other signs do not. With Choice Comes the Possibility for Spiritual Growth This movement into the air element explains why Aquarius may prove to be such an important stage in the evolution of humanity's consciousness. As astrologers have long known (and as the story of the yogi and the Akashic Records underscores), there is something inherently open-ended about Aquarius which makes it hard to predict what will unfold from it. This is because of the element of choice and free will. To use a hypothetical example, imagine a community in which everyone plays a role in an intricately devised drama, but doesn't know it. That is because each has been hypnotized in the past, given inductions to act out pre-assigned parts, and programmed to forget they had ever been hypnotized. As a result, every one sets about their business, acting their parts, without realizing they're puppets, mechanically reciting scripted lines. Opening your Third eye is very much a reality of awakening. You can tap into your intuition and perceive ESPs. PLEASE NOTE: An accurate time of birth is needed to obtain an accurate birth chart. If you don’t know your time of birth you can always work on the chart of someone you know well instead. If you know only a rough time of birth (i.e. within a two hour window) use the middle point in this window and bear in mind, as you work through the course, that there may be a few inaccuracies in your chart until you can establish a more accurate birth time. If you don’t know your birth time but would like to find it out some astrologers offer chart rectification services by which they can establish it. This is not a service I currently provide but if you search online for chart rectification you will find those astrologers who do.

In Awakening Astrology, professional astrologer and intuitive business coach Molly McCord offers a clear, accessible guide for those seeking an introduction to astrology that is simultaneously easy to grasp yet still full of powerful information.On the much more hopeful side, McCord tells us we’re about to get an upgrade regarding how we manage our own personal energy. “We’re learning to become more responsible with our energy in terms of our daily commitments, health needs, and investments. There could be a sense of looking at ‘What am I doing with my life that really matters to me?’ [2023] supports asking, ‘What does living a good life look like for me now?’” Molly is currently an Ambassador for Women for Women International, a non-profit organization which provides education and business training for marginalized women in developing countries. Astrology mostly focuses on the positive They are often affirming and reassuring, which provides comfort, especially during a pandemic, says Hexdall. Astrology and tarot may attract some people because the content resonates with them, providing a sense of validation for their obstacles or gifts, says Hexdall. What does God say about horoscope? Show yourself some compassion as you go through this enormous purge. Know that you’re at the forefront of a massive collective transformation happening on earth right now.
