Sun in Taurus 2017: Growing ones's resources

SUN IN TAURUS A TIME TO MANIFEST

What are your intentions at the time of the Sun in Taurus?

Dear Readers of this blog:

The Sun in Taurus is an auspicious time to focus on growing one’s resources.

We may feel the ARIES forward thrust slow down as its fiery energy condenses and coalesces into matter as the Sun enters the sensuous, earthy realm of TAURUS on April 20, 2017.

Aries: FIRE ENERGY ---> Taurus: GROUNDED MANIFESTATION

TAURUS is the stage of the zodiac where we focus on our needs and develop resources in order to materialize and manifest our ideas and creativity in our lives.

The flame of our initial fire and drive (Aries) glows as our inner fuel as we now gather and ground ourselves. It is the time to develop resources that will allow us to manifest and materialize our Aries drive along our journey.

New Moon in Taurus: April 26, 2017

At the time of the Taurus New Moon on April 26, 2017 the Moon joins the Sun in the sky, reminding us to pause for a moment and set our intentions related to resources, money, growth and sensuality. Here are some things we may want to ponder:

- What do I need to materialize/manifest in my life?

- Where do I need to be grounded?

- How do I relate to my comfort zone?

- Am I celebrating the wonder of life, beauty, joy, and sensuality?

- How am I taking care of my basic needs, food, lodging, money, clothes, the basics?

NOTE: These are general guidelines. In order to go deeper I would need to see your individual chart and where this new moon is positioned. Also whether there are planets making aspect to the New Moon. This allows for inclusion of each person’s individual life context.

April and May 2017 are rich months to create talismans, amulets and conduct rituals.

These talismans or rituals can be undertaken to promote inner growth or material benefits. The choice is yours according to your life circumstances.

If at this moment you feel you need to grow your inner resources, you can make a talisman or create a ritual to focus on energetic, creative or spiritual aspects you want to grow.

If you feel you need to develop your material resources in order to support your life journey, then make an amulet or ritual to that effect.

Each person, according to their own life circumstances and needs can choose to focus on their personal inner growth, their outer material development, or a combination of both.

And remember, the Sun in Taurus is an auspicious time to focus on growing your resources.

Astrology A map of possibilities

En español a continuación

What is Astrology?

In ancient times, as people turned their gaze up to the stars, they started to find connections between the movements and placements of the stars, the Sun, the Moon, the planets and their own lives and their environment. Thus Astrology began to develop, this ancient way of perceiving connections between the sky and stars, and the events in one’s own life. Ancient astronomers charted out the sky as a wheel and divided it into 12 equal parts, each containing a different constellation and a different energetic quality or function. In this way the zodiac and its 12 signs were born: Aires, the energetic quality of taking action, Gemini energy of communication, Cancer energy of nourishment, etc. These astronomers of antiquity also charted out the wheel of the Earth into 12 parts: the houses of experience through which we access the wheel of the sky. Then, in the perception of “As above, so below,” as stated by Hermes Trismegistro, they developed the natal chart – a ‘mandala’ of each person’s unique “star configuration” – each person’s specific map of the solar system and constellations at the moment of birth. ≈≈ Although Astrology has been known for its predictive use, telling of the “bad” and “good” things that would befall us, in our current age, Astrology has more and more become a tool for personal growth and evolution, the natal chart being viewed as a map of the inherent possibilities and challenges we each bring with us at the moment of our birth.

≈≈

Astrology – a tool for personal empowerment

In this manner, many present day astrologers guide consultants in becoming aware of these possibilities and challenges, free from judgment and the interpretation of good or bad, benefic or malefic, -- seeking to understand the deeper, evolutionary meaning of each one’s natal map, and, envisioning new, creative ways to help one deal with moments of change and to find new, empowering options.

≈≈

We can ask ourselves how it is that we, men and women, have expressed over time, these energetic qualities of the signs. Take for example Aries the first sign of the zodiac with its energetic function of action, initiating, starting up, moving forward, the energy of impulse and the daring to act instantly on a decision, a dream, a purpose. In the body it is the blood rushing through our veins; it is the moment we take a step forward, the initiating step. Historically we have embodied this outgoing energy along a spiral or spectrum that goes from being warlike, fighting, wanting to win at all cost, being aggressive, to being competitive, being impulsive, being brave, standing up for our convictions, being courageous, daring to set out to explore and scout new unchartered lands, having the impetus to act on our decisions, the courage to stand up for our convictions.

Stuck in the same groove or jumping the groove creatively

These patterns of behavior have created grooves in the collective unconscious and are the basis on which predictions are made. As an astrologer, I study these grooves of archetypal behavior and strive to uncover the deep energetic meaning of the alignments on each person's natal chart. Together we explore the events in each one's life and relationships – seeking ways to “jump the groove”, to move out of repetitive behavior, to find new, creative ways to think, act and feel – ultimately ways that empower each individual.

Introduccióna la ASTROLOGIA? Un mapa de posibilidades

En épocas antiguas, cuando la gente contemplaba las estrellas, comenzaron a encontrar conexiones entre los movimientos de las estrellas, el Sol, la Luna, y los planetas, y lo que sucedía en el entorno. De esta manera comenzó la Astrología, una manera de percibir las conexiones entre el cielo y las estrellas y los eventos de la vida de uno. Los astrónomos antiguos trazaron un mapa del cielo y lo dividieron en una rueda de 12 partes iguales, cada parte conteniendo una constelación diferente de estrellas con cualidades o funciones energéticas diferentes. De esta manera nacieron el zodiaco y los 12 signos: Aries, la cualidad energética de tomar acción, Géminis, energía de comunicación, Cáncer, energía de nutrición y cuidad, etc. Estos astrónomos de la antigüedad, también trazaron un mapa de la tierra, una rueda dividida en 12 partes: las casas de experiencia terrestre a través de las cuales accedemos a la rueda del cielo. Luego,en la percepción de “Como es arriba, es abajo” planteado por Hermes Trismegisto, desarrollaron la carta natal – un ‘mandala’ de la ‘configuración de estrellas’ única de cada persona – una instantánea del cielo y la tierra al momento de nacimiento de cada persona.

≈≈

Aunque la Astrología se conoce mayormente por su uso para hacer predicciones, alegando las cosas ‘buenas’ y ‘malas’ que nos pueden pasar, en esta época presente, la astrología se ha transformado en una herramienta de crecimiento personal y de evolución; la carta natal se ve como un mapa de posibilidades y desafíos posibles que cada uno de nosotros trae al momento de nacer.

≈≈

La Astrología – una herramienta de desarrollo del poder personal

De esta manera, muchos astrólogos de hoy en día, guían a sus consultantes para que sean concientes de estas posibilidades y desafíos, -- y libres de juicios y de la interpretación de los eventos de vida como buenos o malos, benéficos o maléficos, -- buscan entender el sentido más profundo y evolutivo del mapa natal de cada uno, e intentan envisionar nuevas maneras creativas para enfrentar los momento de cambio y encontrar opciones nuevas que despierten el desarrollo del poder personal de cada uno.

≈≈

Repetir el surco o dar el salto creativo

Podemos preguntarnos como es que nosotros, hombres y mujeres, hemos expresado a lo largo del tiempo, estas cualidades energéticas de los signos, cómo nos hemos alineado con estas energías. Tomemos por ejemplo a Aries, el primer signo del zodiaco con su cualidad energética o función de acción extrovertida, inicio, poner en marcha, arrancar, energía de impulso y el riesgo de la actuar inmediata. En el cuerpo es la sangre que corre por las venas; es el momento del paso inicial. Históricamente hemos expresado esta energía siguiendo un espectro o espiral que va desde ser guerreros, peleadores, competitivos, impulsivos, a ser valientes, arriesgarnos a explorar, tener el ímpetu para actuar sobre una decisión, el coraje de pelear por nuestras convicciones.

Estos patrones de comportamiento han creado surcos en el inconciente colectivo y son la base sobre la cual se formulan las predicciones. Como astróloga, yo estudio estos surcos de comportamiento arquetípico humano y busco descubrir el sentido profundo y energético de los alineamientos en la carta natal de las personas que me consultan. Juntos exploramos los eventos de vida – buscando maneras de ‘saltar el surco’, de salir del comportamiento repetitivo, y encontrar nuevas manera de pensar, actuar y sentir – respuestas creativas a las vivencias de cada uno.
