Here are some insights about the opportunities and challenges that this week’s astrology may offer us collectively. If you’re looking to access personalized astrological and self-care insights to help you navigate the now, I’d love to do a Stellar Guidance Session or a Stellar Constellations Session with you.
We’re in the midst of eclipses, with the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurring last week (September 17) and the New Moon Solar Eclipse happening next week (October 2). If things feel like they are at once shifting yet speculative, poignant although puzzling, ignited while still with outcomes indiscernible, welcome to this week.
Try to stay present to what is unfolding—to both external events and internal awareness—without pushing for premature definition. Remember that time is an essential ingredient when it comes to recipes for clarity. All the while, be a conscious witness and a mindful participant.
We’ll have a helping hand in doing this this week thanks to the prominence of Mercury, the planet that guides and inspires understanding and communication. As it first makes a harmonious trine to shake-it-up Uranus, look at things through a variety of lens, pivoting your perspective to see how doing so may reveal an array of answers often out of sight but then all of a sudden in plain view. Then as Mercury opposes Neptune, invite intuition and imagination to partner with logic and reason. Next, reflecting Mercury’s trine to Pluto, be aware of the role that fear (conscious and/or unconscious) plays in shaping your visions while also digging deeper to see if there are any facts residing a bit below the surface, visible through a bit of excavation.
As the weekend approaches, and both the Sun and Mercury meet up with the South Node, we’ve got the opportunity to further understand deeply etched patterns that guide the way we express ourselves in the world. Reflect upon which may truly serve you and which may keep you from soulfully evolving.
As/if you discover that which is antiquated, which keeps you bound, away from moving in the direction of what feels like your deeper purpose, notice what it is—and set an intention to release it. Also, go slowly and try to be thoughtful about how you use your energy so as to not have it seep out unnecessarily. Let things go while also attending to not losing things you truly cherish.
Have an enlightening week!
