No matter what we think, believe, or intuit, or what science tells us, the fact is we live within the Mystery of life. Astrology and other systems endeavour to penetrate the core of that mystery, yet like a finger pointing to the Moon, they are only intimations of the deep truth of life at play within us.
This current week is a rare one astrologically. We have both small cycles and larger ones at play in our universe. These represent both the evolution of our individuality and the context of the collective within which we live. As planets currently straddle the last and first signs of the zodiac, Pisces and Aries, (strong now and ongoing to Spring 2026) we are given the opportunity to connect deeper to our divinity and explore our unique role within our evolving culture. In the face of our world’s chaos and craziness, that role may seem to be powerless, yet we are encouraged to bring our focus deep within to the energy we live with, rather what’s happening ‘out there’. Consciousness is the true place of change.
The signs of Pisces and Aries are where individuality dissolves then re-emerges in new forms of expression. To be the synergy of both requires that we stay deeply connected to ourselves as conscious beings, as souls, as divine sparks, and also engage life fully in our humanness from that place.
How does that look? Well, as I see it, the calling is to make a stand for what is deeply of value in your heart and soul. To stop selling your soul to powerlessness and step up. Not necessarily in how you act (that will come in more fully later this spring) but in how you are. To deeply root yourself in your humanity as a divine spark with creative potential.
As Elias Lonsdale quotes in his Star Destiny Degree (in part):
‘I am meant to bear witness, to balance the equation, to reveal only what shows itself to me when I stay within the focus of the mysteries. As my outer movement ceases, my inner authority intensifies. The less I go out and do, the more I can accomplish by being present to the extraordinary chance I am given, which is to be active on the inside and free of the turbulent waters, released to be strictly myself……
What can happen is I become present to the here and now, authentic to the one I’ve always been, hearken towards the one I am meant to become. What if I persist in the core practice of getting straight and getting clear, and don’t sell this short for anything? What will come of this experiment?….
I am tapping a wisdom older than the world. The only thing it tells me is have courage, walk courage, stay on with what is in myself.’
To be this fierce and straight with oneself takes both compassion (Pisces) and self-worth (Aries) that underpins your unique part within our changing world.
Think about it: everything arises from within you, doesn’t it? When you awaken in the morning, the world appears. To be deeply connected within as we cross the World Point at 0 Aries in various phases between now and 2026, to live your soul’s knowing, to ‘stay within the focus of the mysteries’ is key. This upcoming Eclipse activates our next evolutionary phase. The balance of dark and light is shifting. As astrophysicists are now discovering – dark matter in our universe appears to be evolving. It is evolving with you! How awesome is that?
