A PERSONAL NOTE
 

Hi,

The Pluto fly-by is a big deal for astrologers as well as astronomers. To see why, check out my blog post on JenningsWire.com and below.

 

Also, some good news: I just found out that I'll have a new article published in the November issue of Dell Horoscope magazine, which will be on newsstands by late September. It's entitled "Tracing Past Lives & Karma in Your Chart ~ A Saturn-South Node Inquiry", and if you want more information about it, check out http://www.dellhoroscope.com/.

 

 

Over the past several months, a wonderful community of like-minded, spiritual seekers has formed, blending some neighbors in my active adult community with others in the local area. There seems to be a thirst for knowledge to help us evolve and grow psychically and spiritually, so people have begun knitting together with those of us who are teachers or presenters or practitioners, doing more and more with those who are curious and consider themselves students or beginners. Quarterly activities at our clubhouse have merged with events offered in schools, public libraries, and centers, all of which makes for a rich and vital phase in one's journey. The community is supportive of each other, interactive socially, and full of creative new ideas. As these come to fruition, I'll keep you posted.

 

Personally, I've found lately that while I have grown in the caring sense, I've become less tolerant of people's self-sabotaging drama. I guess I'm not, and never could be, an enabler. The contrast is stark and I can see the games more clearly than ever and just don't want to participate. Maybe that sounds cold; I prefer to call it "detached". At any rate, the net result for me has been more calmness and less agita. So life feels like fun and not stress, even though I'm writing this on the Saturn station right on my Mars (usually aggravating and limiting), and near some upcoming surgery on my hip.   All is fine. All is calm. All is happy. It is what it is.

 

Signing off until next time.

 

 

With blessings and always, with Smiles,

Judi from Del-Aware

AUG 2015 ASTRO TIDBITS   
    

For the world, the first week of August is positive for longterm plans but difficult for current business problems (Saturn station direct in late Scorpio, trine Mars but square Jupiter exact/Venus retrograde). Markets can be depressed (Saturn square Mercury). Motivation returns by the second week (Mars into Leo, sextile Node; Jupiter into Virgo); health issues and practical analysis win the day. Between the 13th-14th, very unclear choices cause confusion (Mercury opposite Neptune) but there is a new start for unexpected yet constructive change (New Moon trine Uranus). The 16th is favorable for intense negotiating (Pluto trine Mercury). However, the last days of the month indicate continuing over-idealism or unrealistic hopefulness (Full Moon in Pisces conjunct Neptune, opposite Jupiter).

In the U.S., August is a difficult month full of great pressure from shaken lifestyles and uprooted patterns (Pluto opposite U.S. Sun), a pervasive sadness along with a push to reevaluate our roots (Saturn station direct square U.S. Moon, conjunct U.S. progressed IC), and a definite need to heal, release negative influences, and come up with brilliant ideas for a new approach (Uranus conjunct U.S. Chiron, sextile U.S. progressed Mercury; Saturn sextile U.S. Pluto). The first week is filled with arguing (Mars conjunct U.S. Mercury) and excess (Jupiter/Venus opposite U.S. Moon, square U.S. progressed Moon). Effective actions can be implemented on the 11th (Mars sextile U.S. Midheaven) but much frustration is encountered on the 14th (Mars square U.S. progressed Saturn). The second half of the month brings up many old problems (Neptune square U.S. Uranus). Intolerance, short tempers, and impulsive behavior are shown on the 19th (U.S. progressed Mars semi-square U.S. progressed Ascendant) but inventive solutions are bandied about on the 20th (Mars conjunct U.S. Node, sextile U.S. progressed Uranus). The best of the nation can come forward during the third week (Jupiter conjunct U.S. progressed Ascendant). The last week is favorable for business and pleasure (Jupiter sextile U.S. Venus, sextile U.S. progressed Saturn). The 28th indicates a return of strength (Mars trine U.S. Ascendant). The 30th brings slow but good business results (Mars sextile U.S. Saturn).

President Obama continues to feel inspired all month (Neptune trine his Neptune) yet struggles to adjust to drastic changes and a lack of peace especially on the homefront (Uranus square his progressed Midheaven). He has too much on his plate during the first week (Jupiter square his Midheaven, conjunct his Uranus), with the first few days offering a helpful tie (Jupiter conjunct his Node) but a nerve-wracking career peak that leaves him feeling trapped (Saturn station direct conjunct his Midheaven exact, square his progressed Uranus exact). From the 9th to 15th, he is nervous and quite upset (his progressed Moon square his Uranus/progressed Node). There are quarrels on the 14th (Mars conjunct his Mercury). By the 17th, he can find calmness and quietude (his progressed Moon trine his Saturn); from the 17th to 20th, there are fun days (Jupiter trine his Venus). The last week shows him over-reacting (Jupiter square Moon). The 29th is busy but angry (Mars conjunct his Sun), and in need of spiritual healing (Full Moon conjunct his Chiron in H1). Enjoyment can be found at the end of the month (Jupiter conjunct his progressed Venus).

Donald Trump should not be dismissed lightly as he has a strong and brave leadership role to play in life, with many factors pointing to greatness now and in 2016 (his Ascendant at 29� Leo; his progressed Sun from H10 at 28� Leo conjunct the fixed star Regulus; his progressed Midheaven entering Leo). He feels freed to speak his mind (Uranus sextile his Node/progressed Uranus in Gemini H10), and will be a powerful communicator during this period (progressed Mercury conjunct his Pluto). There is a mixture of opportunity versus limitation (Jupiter conjunct his progressed Sun/Ascendant at 29� Leo; Saturn station direct square same). He may labor under a delusion from late August through late September (his progressed Moon square Neptune), but seems to have a need to redeem himself in general (his progressed Venus conjunct his Chiron). In comparing Trump against Obama, Trump criticizes the president (T's progressed Saturn conjunct O's Mercury), forces him to transform (T's Pluto conjunct O's Sun), and angers him greatly (T's Mars conjunct O's Uranus/Node) - it would seem that they are old karmic foes!

JENNINGSWIRE BLOG POST    
    
DOES THE FLY-BY OF PLUTO MATTER TO OUR LIVES?

 

By now, everyone knows that a fly-by of Pluto occurred on July 14th, 2015. A spacecraft reached this orbiting body at the far outskirts of our solar system, and sent back wonderfully detailed pictures revealing for the first time a lovely vast heart-shaped pattern on its surface and particulars such as ice mountains. Was it sending us a love note, even though we had previously demoted its status from full member of our planetary solar system to that of a dwarf planetoid?

 

Astrologers, having dealt with the effects of the placement of Pluto in clients' horoscopes as far back as its discovery in February 1930 by astronomer Clyde Tombaugh, know Pluto's astrological influence to be profound, powerful and deep (i.e., anything but dwarf, as in minor or insignificant). It would be natural to surmise that this up-close-and-personal encounter might have ramifications beyond pure astro-physics.

 

Pluto, god of the underworld, rules such things as psychology and weapons of mass destruction. Its influence in a horoscope can speak of periods when the person is undergoing a deep psychological transformation, often precipitated by trauma or crisis, and it also refers to buried and hidden matters that are forced to the surface so that the "dirt" can be cleansed through the process of greater awareness. In unscrupulous people, Pluto's effects may bring forth violence, abuse, or connection to shady individuals, but in more evolved persons, Pluto's effect can bring great insights, positive change in behavior and values, and ultimately a strong sense of empowerment. Therefore, Pluto and the sign it rules, Scorpio, have been symbolically related to the phoenix myth of death and rebirth from one's own ashes.

 

In our history, for millennia we were unaware of the outer planets in the solar system because we had not yet invented devices such as telescopes that could enhance normal vision. And so we were constrained by what the naked eye could see in the night sky, the outermost planet of which was Saturn, the ringed planet, thus long called in metaphysics "the Ring-Pass-Not". This designation symbolized a limitation on our knowledge and a boundary on our grasp of the transcendent nature of the universe.

 

However, with the onset of the Industrial Revolution in the 1700s, Uranus was discovered in 1781 by William Herschel, coinciding with electricity and revolution. And then Neptune was discovered in 1830 by his son John Herschel, coinciding with film, anesthesia, paranormal research and spiritual development. Each of these planetary detections brought a change in our interaction with the world as well as in our consciousness. As I mentioned, Pluto's discovery did so as well after 1930. For example, Pluto rules the masses, the bomb, and psychology.

 

So we can be sure that our actual physical near-encounter with the planet itself will usher in another era of deep transformation to ourselves, to our nation, and to the world, because nothing has been found to be more potent than little Pluto!

 

In great coincidence, the Pluto fly-by has occurred near our nation's birthday of July 4th, thus opposing the Sun in the U.S. horoscope, a pattern of deep pressure to undergo transformation. It has also reached the mid degree of the sign of Capricorn - usually a significant turning point regarding the makeover of large intuitions and government. Therefore, we're in the thick of profound changes to our entire structure as a nation - i.e., a challenge to our constitution. And we are undergoing the peak of testing in that regard.

 

The connection between the Pluto fly-by, the images that we are now able to see, and the profundity of challenge we are undergoing as a nation and a society is more than coincidence. Is this intelligent design? America's symbol is the eagle, one of the clearest references to our evolved aspect, the phoenix, which can resurrect itself in more potent form after its demise. Pluto is sending a love note to us on Earth, perhaps most especially to America. We're experiencing intense change, and we are being assured that we will come out of this transformed and better for it.

 

From Pluto, with love,

Your very distant cousin.

Book Review: "The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction", (in its 66th year of publication by Curtis Circulation)
 

 

     This is a subscription publication that I can really get behind! Each month, rather than a magazine format, what arrives is virtually a book. A collection of short stories, book reviews, sometimes poems, and the like. The index page calls the offerings novellas, novelets, and short stories.

     I've been a subscriber to this magazine from girlhood on, not continuously for I let my subscription lapse for decades and then rediscovered it one day at Barnes and Nobel. Since then, I have been very impressed by the quality of the writing, not just the quantity thereof. (As an aside, the count of stories averages between 9 to 12 separate entries each month, and runs approximately 256 pages.)

     The entries, as I have been noticing, range the gamut from strict science fiction in which some type of technology, space travel, application of scientific discovery is chewed upon regarding its impact on human life from settings in contemporary times to the far future. A few entries re-imagine socio-political effects on human beings; several feel more like traditional fantasy in which an author propels you into a bygone era, or a simulation of such in an alternate universe or on another planet. And then, in these latest issues, I've also been surprised by some entries that to me don't seem to fall in the categories of either fantasy or science fiction but more like an internal journey through very different daily possibilities or the weirdnesses of the mind. These latter are hard to describe. One, for instance, imagines two contemporary lovers, each of whom can play with increasing or decreasing their total amount of time in life by their emotional passions, manipulations, game playing, and other methods that don't require devices or scientific innovations but merely what seems like mindsets that alter reality for good or for bad between them.

     One of my favorite short stories in a recent issue was pure science fiction in that the entire plot unfolded as commands between a rogue programmer and the central governing master computer. As one read between the lines of commands and responses, a story took place of a heist in which large amounts of money were transferred from bank to bank, escape routes were taken using false identity, and a shadow underground was accessed to support the thief, who (I believe) did his criminal activity because he was wrongly targeted by the governing master computer and had no other means to get past its restrictions than to become an outlaw. (I might have been a bit confused about the happenings because of the way the entire plot was presented, but it was so different and innovative to me that I found it greatly enjoyable.)

     Having read science fiction all my life, being an avid fan of Game of Thrones, Star Trek, Star Wars, 2001, and many other pop varieties of science fiction as well as the lesser known offerings in the field, just such as this wonderful magazine, that present much more thought-provoking concepts than the action-adventure movies usually do, I can own up to classifying myself as a nerd. Whatever that definition is nowadays, I would certainly fit it. For both sentimental reasons and intellectual appreciation, I recommend this bi-monthly magazine wholeheartedly if you are of my nerdish persuasion.

 Monthly Channeling - Aug '15

Teachings of The Brotherhood of Light Workers
By Judi Thomases   

 

The following segment has been received, word for word through a psychic process known as channeling.  It is an invited procedure.  The teachings always serve to guide us through the journey of life.  Compilations of many such messages are available in book, PDF and audio formats:

TRY, TRY AGAIN

 

 "If at first you don't succeed...", don't despair, for then you drop energy and lose will.

One of the most important notions to make part of you is to keep generating energy and forward motion. The activity of such pushes life along, forces the universe to keep conforming to your efforts, and if nothing else, increases the characteristic of willpower in your nature. If we put it into mechanical terms, your attitude is like fuel that keeps your engine ticking and propels you along on your journey.

 

Sometimes it is good to see important philosophical concepts in tangible and everyday terms. When you succumb to thoughts of failing or giving up, you lose power. Your energy system wilts, and your forward drive loses momentum. Thus, the platitude, "Try, try again," is really the instruction to reactivate energy and determine how to move towards a goal.

 

Failures can thus be seen quite literally as obstacles in the road. Did a boulder fall off a cliff? Did a truck accidentally impose itself across several lanes? Have you encountered an immovable object that has gotten in the way of your heart's desire? What to do?

 

First, call forth your angels! What do we mean? We mean that you have hidden and invisible reservoirs of energy that can be commanded to help you when you're stuck. See it as the Triple A or even the towing service! Rather, see it as premium fuel! Ask the universe to give you more support because you wish to be more determined and more energized, not less. It is the very obstacle that requires this demand, for it cannot get the better of you if you do not let it.

 

Always boulders and trucks can be moved. Always the lanes can be reopened. Always the engine can rev up and the foot can hit the pedal. If you happen to read these words, and have hit a snag in your efforts, do not despair. Call forth your extra, even supernatural, aides. Give yourself a talking-to. Visualize an open road ahead once the obstacles have been removed. And find within yourself that spirit, that passion, that gave you motivation in the first place. If you learn to do this simple thing, nothing in life can ever hold you down, and you will be active and energized until your last days.

 

In a way, it is the secret and the magic of successful people. Are you one yet? Make it so.
