My Transits for March 8th 2014 #astrology

Yes ,folks, I have lots of squares going on as of late .. could explain the cruds I have been feeling past few days.. the hardest hitting one was the Neptune square  my Mars , which many Medical Astrologers will read as a transient infection of some form. In my case, a very nasty little intestinal bug. Not going into details but I wore a path in the carpet between couch and le toilette .  What I want you all to see , though, is that at time I ran the chart I was undergoing a transiting Gemini moon squaring my Sun Uranus Pluto ASC grouping. This is seldom good for ones career.. This I can vouch for from personal experience . IN Some charts , this becomes a minimal ill aspect because only the ASC would be involved. in MY chart it hits harder because of my sun ( core vitality self soul) and that damned Erratic ,  plot twisting Uranus that conjuncts my sun as well natally. I have run a few of my best remembered hard times in the job market and , to best of my recollections, every time I had a difficult time working for others, it was when a transiting planet squared or opposed this Sun Uranus mix.

I am also dealing with a Transiting Jupiter Natal Saturn Square ( another one not nice for my job / employment/career standings) Brings about complexities in Career. For me it is my personal conflict between control and growth? an internal blockage? Possible Growth conflicting with Seriousness, depression . Restrictions .  In Any case, not nice ..

Then there is Transiting Mercury squaring off against my natal Neptune.. haha Writers block? intellect conflicting with creativity? Foggy thinking, being inconvenienced by others? yes I have seen that ..Had a Friend get kicked out of his parents house about 3 weeks ago. Nice guy , but is turning from house guest to old fish very rapidly. indeed. Oh !And Deceptions .. Someone set up a false account under the guise of one of my Aunts. Got a message from “Her” that said she had won a $100,000 lottery and needed me to cash the first payment for her .. YEah Right good luck with that Nigerian Scammer! Nope wasn’t falling for that one ! Reported blocked spammed ( well not spammed) but dropped as big a bomb on this person as Facebook would allow 🙂  Now ,on a personal level, squares or oppositions of Mercury and Neptune are to be treated as either as a mini Mercury Rx or a rather longer Mercury Rx ,depending on if the transiting planet is Mercury or Neptune against Natal Neptune or Mercury This is pretty much all going on with me at the moment.. Things will get better when Moon moves through cancer and into Leo.. 🙂 I usually do really well in Leo Moons (note my venus jupiter there)

A Bit About #Mercury #Astrology

Astrologically, Mercury represents the principles of communication, mentality, thinking patterns, rationality and reasoning and adaptability and variability. Mercury governs schooling and education, the immediate environment of neighbors, siblings and cousins, transport over short distances, messages and forms of communication such as post, email and telephone, newspapers, journalism and writing, information gathering skills and physical dexterity. Commerce of all kinds , the exchange of goods  and ideas. The 1st-century poet Manilius described Mercury as an inconstant, vivacious and curious planet.

When Mercury goes retrograde, especially at the stationary points on either end of the retrograde periods, we can expect ‘blockages’ in all the matters that Mercury / Hermes dominates.

Parents: Hermes was the son of Zeus, the King of the Gods, and the mountain Nymph Maea, who was a daughter of the Titan Atlas. Hermes was born inside a cave on Mount Cyllene in Arcadia, southern Greece.
Famous Children: Hermaphroditus and the Satyr Pan.
Hermes, the God’s Messenger and Conductor of Souls

Hermes was wearing wings on his sandals and therefore was the speediest of all Greek gods. Because of his speed, Hermes received the role of the messenger and conductor of souls to the Underworld. Hermes was the only Olympian god who was authorized to visit Heaven, Earth and also the Underworld and enjoyed this way popularity among all the Greek gods and spirits.

Hermes, the God of the Thieves
It is well known that Ancient Greeks endowed their gods with human weaknesses. Hermes, for instance, felt an irresistible impulse of stealing ever since his infancy and quickly developed as the god of the cheaters and the thieves.

Hermes’ special Relation to Zeus
Hermes was a messenger of all gods, but mostly he was known for performing duties for his father Zeus with great pleasure. Zeus appreciated Hermes’ wits highly and always asked for Hermes’ assistance throughout his decisions, especially when it came to cheating on his wife Hera.

Appearance of Hermes

Hermes was a young man, wearing traveling clothes, a flat hat known as “petasus” and winged sandals on his feet. Oftentimes he was also considered to have wings attached to his shoulders and hat.
Hermes usually held a winged staff with snakes wrapped around it in his hands in order to gain access everywhere. This staff helped Hermes to charm the gods or to wake up those who were tamed by the god of sleep.

Symbols of Hermes

The caduceus (his staff), the purse (or leather pouch), the winged sandals, the ram and the petasus (his hat).

SAGITTARIAN MIND CONSULTING™

True to my Sagittarian mind, I’m on an infinite quest to “connect” the dots. To take various bits of information and synthesize, thereby creating a whole.

In fact, these pieces may even seem to be unrelated at the time. For most of my adult life, music and astrology have consistently spoken to me. Both are universal languages, and I am of the opinion that if we know how and where to look, we can discover the themes of these two beautiful symbolic tongues manifesting in almost everything around us.

Since I’m a hip hop head, I’ve put together a collection of lyrics for the 12 signs of the zodiac to help you better understand their underlying themes and thought processes.  I hope you enjoy.

Note: I have chosen lyrics based on the theme of the zodiac sign and not the particular sign of the quoted emcee.

Astrological Archetypes #Astrology

SAGITTARIAN MIND CONSULTING™

Carl Jung, a Swiss psychologist and psychotherapist, who is credited(along with Aristotle) with giving rise to the term “Archetype”  and broadening it’s exposure, has defined it as :

“a universal and recurring image, pattern, or motif representing a typical human experience.”

Although these images are”universal”, they’re transformed and re-worked. Thereby, given a unique expression based on cultural influence. Archetypes represent patterns of behavior and models of people, which can reach us through a myriad of ways. Symbols, dreams, myths, art and music are just the tip of the iceberg of how these images permeate our consciousness.

Astrologically, our birth charts are infused with the energy and imprint of these archetypes in their own unique pattern. The recognition of how these forces are organized within our psyche is one of the keys to how we can realize and fulfill our deepest potentials; how we can actualize our most authentic nature.
