Today I Start my Life Anew...
With Mercury retrograde, it can send your mind and thoughts into different directions in order to see things in different perspectives than usual... One thing that has always 'bugged me' about 'Modern Astrology' is how they present aspects (planet connections) as if they are a mathematical formula... (A+B=C)... When I was first learning and studying the charts a ga-jillion years ago, it was always kind of frustrating because I'd see certain aspects and expect certain events to happen as a result... It was frustrating and I was disappointed when expected events didn't happen.

The problem is, that astrological aspects are more of a 'seed' type of energy that sets the stage and the conditions for certain events to be possible... Sorta-kinda like putting a 'Roast Beast' into the oven... It is going to take a while before it's cooked and developed... Trackin' with me on this?

Back on December 21st, 2012 we reached the end of the Mayan 'Long Count' Calendar and tons of people thought it was going to be "Doom's Day" and total destruction, but not much happened... (Zzzzzz... yawn)... hehe... However, if the Baktun (the 20 year cycle part of the Mayan Calendar) is divided into the 12 (32 year) astrological cycles... You can see how this energy plays out in a very different light... We can see the radical changes we are dealing with from 1980 to present... And from 1949 and the start of the 50's led us to 1980... (the rock n roll cycle)... The 1916-1948 cycle was that of World War... (blah blah blah)... Trackin' with me on this?... It is all 'cycles within cycles'... You know the drill, I don't have to spell this all out.

Push or Pull Sisyphus... The Rock is Destined to Roll...

What we see in the world is one 'side/group' desperately trying to 'keep things as they were'... And another 'side/group' that is transform it into something different... The past has been all about holding power and control... But one thing is for sure, it's never goin' back to the way it was before... (fact, deal with it)... I believe there will be such massive data-dumps (uranus in taurus) where we will learn so much about 'what really happened' in the past... (red-pilling)... Technologies that have existed for quite some time, but held back for financial reasons... (saturn in capricorn)... We see it here in America, but the same thing is happening in Europe, Asia and basically all over the world.

When factoring in the longer cycles... (and sparing you hundreds of pages of explanations) it basically comes down to the end of "Divide and Conquer" cycle... The Uranian way of dealing with energy this is to take things to such radical lengths so that people can see the insanity in fighting against each other... And when both sides get so tired of it, they'll realize it is in everybody's best interest to join forces and to 'get along'... No different than a parent with a house of 'wound-up-kids' on a rainy day... They warn the kids over and over, but then let them go until something bad happens or someone gets hurt and they simply say... "See, I told you this would happen".

That's it for now... I'll get into our current energy in the Daily 'Scopes...

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The weekly horoscope for Leo has the kind of energy that cause you to feel 'all revved up and ready to go'... But before you race out into bold and decisive action, you would be wise to lay out your plans in detail (Saturn) and KNOW what consequences your words and actions will have... (not what you HOPE will happen)... Besides, this energy is really more about bringing your relationships with others to much higher levels... To get past the usual daily ruts and routines and to spend more time 'living in the moment.'

...Show some Love...
