Astrology for September 13, 2024

The Moon in Capricorn continues this serious tone to our day. With Pluto in the last degree of Capricorn it seems we need to make things move towards the exit doors. For some, this means we need to let people and situations go. We have had enough and we are not interested in anything that adds to the insanity of life at this time.

While Saturn in Pisces, the Sun in Virgo, and Uranus in Taurus seem to promote emotional healing, positive change, and a more cooperative mood, we recognize that progress requires us to change.

I hear all of you saying silently out there, “OMG! All I have done is try to change but this has been so difficult!” And you are not wrong. We have had to take so many small steps, but they are finally adding up to some big changes and this is a more grounded approach than feeling as if the universe wants to throw us off the cliff.

It is time to reflect and take a look at how much has changed in our lives since 2008 when Pluto first went into Capricorn. Notice how much you have accomplished and how drastically your personality has shifted out of ego and into a more authentic expression. While the vulnerability might still be quite uncomfortable, it is still great progress to move so far out of the games that the ego used to ensnare and entrap us in our past.

Yes, we have been pummeled but we are softer. Yes, we are not in any preconceived illusions but we are not chasing windmills. Yes, simpler is better than the chaos that threated to pull us into insanity.

Today, Mercury will do a minor square to Chiron so expect communication to get skewed. Think before you say anything. Anticipate how someone might hear what you are trying to say. Remember that some people use words differently than us and so pick your words carefully and remember to notice your body language also. Stay grounded and congruent. Avoid absolutes and imperatives. No one wants to be ordered around today. And everything is not black or white. If you use such things, you will be called out.

Remember, freedom looks different to each person. Cultural norms and genetic factors change how one sees it and how it will feel to them. Let others find what they seek while you continue to seek what is longing for you to discover
