Have you been sorting through things, lately, re-visiting things, trying new things, re-connecting and re-tooling? You’d almost think it was Merc retro, at least the way it’s usually described–but it must be something else–and I think that something is Uranus to the Aries point, then abruptly retro. Uranus barely made it into Aries and then withdrew his attention and energy–but I think it’s having a crazy side effect, as if the whole Universe is being gently shaken through a sifter, and anything not useful is finding another home. Maybe it’s the electric part of the Uranian vibe, the way it sings through us at such a high frequency we don’t even realize it’s happening, we just see our lives change around us, the energy to alter what’s before us shooting from our fingertips like cartoon lightning–and yet we don’t see our own power, not really–and that’s what we need to focus on right now, that we have a tremendous amount of power available to us–apply it to the Universe, to what you really want, and be ready for the consequences, which will come in all forms! Mars trines Earth and gives us the energy to get it done, almost before we can think it.
Venus quincunx Jupiter and trine Pluto may be playing into all this, asking us to consider values, to assess reward and need, to think about how much is too much–if we muster the Uranian charge behind this, it can become almost this simple: think it, and it is. An approach that may feel like magic, but is really no more than jumping into the Cosmic current. The veil is thin right now, little separates us from the unseen, and we can make of it what we will. Like good Marxists, we’ll enjoy an ‘each according to his needs, each according to his abilities’ kind of result, which should be very satisfying for those of us who can get out of our own ways.
And have a great day!
Spot on, as if you were spying into this triple Leo’s brain!
Thanks, Layla!

I’ve been asking myself this question a lot lately why it feels as though Merc is rx. But, of course, it’s the Uranian vibe (higher octave of Mercury) – this magnificent shift, coming whole circle, to stir up the Arian energy with his little toe and then just turn around! It’s definitely a crazy side-effect.
Hi Verena! Glad I’m not the only one 🙂

Hi Julie,
Does this energy lead to “all in” decisions, as in poker,
“go for broke” actions? Since times have been so tough for so many, is this a time when the urge to take risky action supercedes rational in fragile situations?
I am seeing the dramatic effects all around me.
Big changes and dramatic reactions.
As for thought creating reality, I believe thought is real and has as much reality as anything else we consider real.
Now if I could just believe it enough to witness it.
Have a great Tuesday.
Feeling nurturing for me is focused on myself. Selfish me.

Hi Donna, I think it can make for ‘all in’ situations, but the elements seem to have to be there already; so the change has been in the making for a long time, only the adoption of it is (or seems) abrupt. I’m not seeing anything that is truly blindsiding anybody. And no, I don’t think risk is outwaying the rational–in fact, I think it’s the opposite, where we’re having to finally acknowledge what we’ve known intellectually (and sometimes subconsciously) for some time already. When it seems surprising and abrupt, look below the surface, and see how what’s happening, or the choice made, is really the most coolly rational and logical one possible, especially when we consider that another of the Uranian effects is for the individual to feel quite separate, and so for them to put what they truly need (or truly are inside) out there to be seen. And there’s nothing selfish about taking care of yourself–isn’t that the main job for each of us? jd

Thanks Julie,
I completely agree. That which seems to take people by surprise is merely the visual occurrence of that which has been looming.
I was wondering if frustrations might have built to such a level that Uranus touching Aries might be the impetus for action.
You explain this all so well. Thanks.

Trying to communicate for the last few days has been absolutely nightmarish. There’s a lot of miscommunication going on — the kind where people don’t WANT to understand what you’re actually saying because they already decided they think you’re wrong. It’s pushing all my fear buttons of being blamed and misunderstood. It then makes me even more confused, making it hard to argue my case clearly. Very distressing.
Yes, that is distressing, especially because it feels terribly unfair. When I feel things are going that way, I retreat, and make a point of not trying to make a point! It’s freeing and I typically find that others may get tangled up but I stay out of the mess. Good luck, Eme Kah! jd
