“Patience is required now – slow, steady, determined efforts.”  Nadia Gilchrist

“What shape waits in the seed of you to grow and spread its branches against a future sky?” David Whyte

There is a large cluster of planets – a stellium – in the sky now involving the Sun and Pluto in late Capricorn and Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury, the Moon and Pallas Athene in early Aquarius.

The appropriate use of power continues to be on the front burner. Mars is in a challenging alignment with Saturn , indicating a time of frustration. Best to pursue a moderate path and avoid overwork and overdoing.

Mars is conjunct Uranus, the planet of the unexpected for several more weeks. Mars, the planet of action and desire is frustrated in the sign of Taurus and when combined with Uranus- the planet of the unexpected –  can indicate the need to break free of pent up energy. It’s best to avoid impulsive behavior -both individually and on the part of others.

This duo can be hard on the nervous system. It’s best to create extra space  for renewal and rejuvenation.

One of the Sabian symbols for this time is,”Natural steps to a lawn blooming with clover.”

There is a powerful New Moon Wednesday in the wee hours at 12:02 AM EST.

At this time the  Sun and Moon will be conjunct Pluto the planet of the Underworld at 23 degrees of Capricorn. This conjunction has depth and intensity to it and lends power to effecting change and transformation. It is a good time to look at what you would like to change in your life and make a pragmatic plan to make this happen.

There is frustrating energy at this time as Mars and Uranus form a challenging alignment to Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury. It’s best to focus on a your inner resourcefulness and the aspects of your life that are under your control.  It’s wise at this time to stay in touch with things that bring inspiration, hope and courage in your life.

We are living through times of great change on planet earth.  As with all New Moons it’s wise to keep a bright vision of your plans and goals and keep  in mind a healthy sustainable future for the planet.

One of the Sabian  symbols for this time is,”A woman enters a convent.”
