Numerology/Astrology for 3/9/17

3/9/17 is the number 4. The number 4 makes me feel at the moment that we are living the Star Wars saga. In the movie, there is a person of great power that the people believe can bring balance to the force but then they realize that he will do that by bringing so much darkness in that the universe now has to swing back the other way. Perhaps that is how we learn to value things. Perhaps the lesson is that we did not value what we had and that we were finding fault where there was not perhaps the clear reasoning that we believed. Regardless, the number 4 ruler, Saturn is going to teach all of us the lessons of fate. Saturn is all about succeeding through diligence and perseverance. To have control often you have to release control. In that way, you learn to move with the energy and the tides that are moving you rather than you believing you are moving them. Only in the middle of the chaotic flow can you become one with that new flow and find a way, through understanding the nature of that energy learn to guide or coax it into a new paradigm. Be especially sensitive to the practical order and systems today. Stay compassionate, willing, responsible, caring, and logical in your approach.

The Moon is in affectionate, proud Leo all day. Mercury forms a quincunx to Jupiter today (the Sun will do the same on the 11th), so expect to may face a challenging decision. Your ideas don’t always feel exactly right under this influence. You can waver quite a bit now, unable to reach a wholly satisfying decision or conclusion. You may overestimate your abilities or underestimate the situation and not give the attention you actually need to so that you can respond properly. Avoid jumping into something without planning ahead, as necessary details are too easy to overlook. Mars enters Taurus today and will transit the sign until April 21st. With this position, you are determined, stubborn, and resolute. Mars in Taurus can be a relatively passive influence but full-on when resisting or defending something! In stark contrast to the impulsive pull of the Mars in Aries cycle, you may tend to pursue your goals by plodding along patiently. Ask the question, “What will give you long-term satisfaction.” I know that many of us are focused on the fear of losing our creature comforts but try to step into a bigger perspective. With Venus retrograde for much of this transit, the best door is a more deliberate approach to pursuing your dreams and what you desire.

Each person believes that the choices they make are the best and serve the greater good. But the question is, “What greater good?” If the greater good is to validate your position and prejudice that might not be the best position to hold. It shows that you have not learned the lessons of compassion. If the greater good is to put yourself higher than others then you have not learned the lesson of acceptance. If your greater good harms others of less means then you are holding anger and resentment. If your greater good demeans others and minimizes their pain and suffering you are deeply insecure and afraid of your own negative dialogue that you are afraid to hear so you project it on to others. In this moment, listen. I mean really listen to the words that come out of your mouth. Those words tell you about how you have programmed your own mind. It shows you the voices in your head that you do not listen to. Everything you say on the outside is what some part of you is saying to you on the inside. That one awareness is humbling and can change the course of a destructive karmic life is you let it.
