Astro Update 2 17 21

Today at 12:28PM/MST we had the first of 3 Saturn square Uranus aspects. June 14th and Dec.24th are the next two times these 2 planets square each other. It is the aspect of the year. It is the old and new vying for place. Old power vs. new ideas, the traditional vs. the entrepreneurial. It is a tug of war as the old is unseated to make room for new concepts and perceptions. The only caution is: don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Don’t get rid of things you will just have to buy again, don’t get rid of something valuable that is important to keep while you are getting rid of what no longer works. Have an outlet for your frustrations: a project, an avenue of self-expression, physical exercise. Keep the energy moving.

Mercury is slowing down to turn Direct on Saturday the 20th at 5:52PM/MST. As we slow down, sometimes it feels more intense: appointment changes, more confusion and misunderstandings. As Mercury turns Direct on Saturday, we begin to move, to see what’s next, and redo the occurrences of the last 3 weeks. It’s a look at our humanity, our willingness to help others, to see ourselves as part of a human family. Too lofty? Well, how about having a conversation with someone you don’t usually talk with. Start simple.

“Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop.”
