Jupiter goes Direct and Winter Solstice coming right up!

Winter Solstice 2022

Jupiter is moving DIRECT at 28 degrees Pisces. The grand planet of expansion and abundance will

then move to 29 degrees Pisces on December 5, making its way to re-enter Aries on the Winter Solstice, December 21.
Jupiter will enter 0 degrees Aries as the Sun enters 0 degrees Capricorn, making an exact square to the Sun, encouraging us to get clear on what needs to stay and what needs to be released to take full advantage of the energy that will be coming in like a strong fiery wind as Jupiter enter Aries.
We had a taste of Jupiter in Aries earlier this year and perhaps you felt the burst of energy that is the vibrational energy of this planetary placement. Jupiter’s retrograde back into Pisces could have left you feeling confused and perhaps a bit like driving in fog, depending only and entirely on your intuition to guide you through some dense energy. As Jupiter is moving forward, even in the last degrees of Pisces, there can still be some confusion but that should be clearing up after the Solstice and the road ahead should look more inviting and easier to navigate. Depending on where Jupiter is transiting in your own chart you will notice where the confusion turns to clearer vision.

With Mars retrograde in Gemini at 19 degrees and cruising rather quickly all the way back to 8 degrees Gemini by mid-January, your mental thought waves are probably hyper agitated. This can bring in intense waves of anxiety and worry. It is so important to remember that your mind is not you and that you get to manage and direct your thoughts. If your over-thinking is propelling you down a dark path that is making your heart palpitate and your fears and worries dominate, you get to choose different thoughts and re-calibrate your emotional system to peace and calm. You have to manage your mind and not let it manage you. Perhaps this is a lifelong practice but no better time than RIGHT NOW to practice!

Clearly there is chaos in our field these days and events are occurring that are frightening and shake us to the very core. These are the birth pangs of a new time and you have chosen to incarnate during this grand and intense transition from one age to another. To hold to the past is useless and to fear the future is a misdirection of your energy. Focus completely and entirely on the experience you wish to have, giving no attention to what you don’t want or to things that are happening around you that you wish weren’t happening.
What do you want to happen?
What do you envision as the world you want to inhabit?
FOCUS on WHAT YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE and align your emotions with the pleasure of that.
I know, easier said than done, but this is our work right now.
Embrace the work with joy as you are alive today and being alive is the point from which all choice
can be made.

Mercury entered Sagittarius
19 November 2022

The wisdom of the zodiac is never more evident than when we feel the shift from the emotional intensity of Scorpio morphing into the mutable fire sign energy of Sagittarius. We move from the focused laser beam of Scorpio to a broader, more open-minded and open-hearted perception of the world and its various inhabitants. We open ourselves to questions that spark us to search for truth. After what can sometimes feel the vice grip of Scorpio we get to relax into the warmth of the mutable Fire sign Sagittarius.
Venus, planet of LOVE and abundance entered Sagittarius on November 17 and will be transiting Sag with the Sun through December 10th. Then Venus will move into Capricorn. More on Venus in Capricorn as December rolls around. As the planet of LOVE moves through Sag Venus ignites open-minded quests for answers to the BIG questions and encourages us to connect with peoples of all over the world. Connection is the Venusian way.
Mercury, mischievous messenger of the zodiac, joined Venus in Sagittarius on November 19. I would imagine there will be LOTS of conversations going on about higher consciousness and where you want to travel, physically and/or interdimensionally as late Autumn invites us into her domain.
With Mars retrograde in Mercury-ruled Gemini plan on LOTS of conversation, I mean LOTS! and a general amping up in the mental realms.
Revel in the expansiveness of Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius. A beautiful time to relax into higher and wider perspective as we enter the weeks leading up to the Winter Solstice. The days are getting shorter and shorter here North of the equator. Each moment of daylight treasured. Nights sparkling with holiday lights and oodles of stars. The Pleides are vividly bright in the winter sky and we are naturally drawn more inward to visit more with ourselves before we visit with others.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on November 23 and is joined by the Moon. A New Moon in Sagittarius blesses the day where hopefully you will take time to reflect on all the gifts you witness and experience
in your present incarnation.
Deepening your spiritual practice at this time feels natural so make time to be quiet and be deeply with yourself. Commune with the winter nature spirits as much as possible to feed your soul and connect you with the rhythms of the Earth. When you align your higher consciousness with the Earth rhythms you feel more grounded and able to navigate your life with more ease and grace.
Jupiter has retrograded back into Pisces, re-entering Aries at the Winter Solstice…oh by the way!
SAVE THE DATE! for a most enchanting Winter Solstice Virtual Live Zoom gathering that I will be presenting with John Wing Flower and Lee Cook Mitchell. For those of you who knew us when we did live events – the band is getting back together! Save your space today! Register at GATHERINGS.

In the meantime, while Jupiter has retrograded back into Pisces getting enough deep sleep will open the doorways to Dreamtime. Dreamtime is rich and deep and endless and especially so when both Neptune and Jupiter are transiting Pisces, as they are now until the Winter Solstice.

Where are the other planets moving this week?
Mercury is close on the heels of the Sun, moving at the mid degrees of Scorpio. Your feelings will be likely expressed through your words so be alert to their impact on others. Scorpionic Mercury can cut to the chase and cause hurt and harm with somewhat of a knife-edge clarity. Process your feelings before you unload on someone else or there might be way more apologies necessary than you have bandwith.
Venus is moving into the last decan (10 degrees unit) of Scorpio, just ahead of Mercury. Passions are running deep. Emotions that have been kept under wraps could infiltrate through to the surface.
Feel your feelings and get creative with how you express them. Usually what we feel is really more about us than about another. Process your emotions so their expression serves to uplift and elevate.
Mars is moving retrograde in Mercury-ruled Gemini. You could feel somewhat frenetic with your words coming out all over the place with lack of direction and no focus. Mars is an activating energy and in the mental Air sign of Gemini can get your mind running away ahead of your mouth. Slow down. Take a breath before you start chattering away, Slow down any way, What’s the rush? Where are you going?
Jupiter is now retrograding back into Pisces, close to the Moon as the Moon makes her way from the last degrees of Pisces, moving into Aries and then primping herself for the Lunar Eclipse occurring at 15 degrees Taurus on November 8th. Jupiter in Pisces joins Neptune already hanging out there. Look to your dreams and insights that come when you are enjoying non-linear places in your consciousness, like when you are meditating or enjoying other non-thought based activities.
Saturn is moving direct at 18 degrees Aquarius, separating from an ongoing square from Uranus. This ongoing square is evidenced in the growing polarity between holding on to the old ways, the old systems, the dominance of the patriarchal system, and the evolving revolution demanding equality for all sentient beings and the right to choose our experiences.
Uranus is moving retrograde in the mid degrees of Taurus. Lots of movement, breakthroughs and chaos around food, resources and the monetary system. Buckle up for this ride! Uranus is only half way through its 7-year journey through Taurus.
Neptune is slowed down at 22 degrees Pisces, preparing to station direct on December 4th after a many month retrograde period. Listen to your dreams. Revel in your visions and be open to receive direct guidance from your own Higher Self. Not sure how to do this? Check out our INTUITION course
where you will learn to master your own intuitive tools.
Pluto is slowly moving towards the completion of its ride through Capricorn. At 26 degrees Capricorn (each sign is 30 degrees long) Pluto is approaching 28 degrees Capricorn where the U.S. will have its Pluto return. Talk about a death-rebirth process. We are living it! Work on keeping your inner condition as calm and centered as possible. The winds of change are roaring about us!
I really like the Grounding Guided Meditation. Doing this daily really helps calm and center yourself!
