Aquarius Revolutionary

2014-02-06T18:00:00.000-05:00

On Sunday, January 19, 2014 @ 10:51 PM EST, our life sustaining Sun entered the constellation of Aquarius. I started to reflect on what this should mean for me. An easy way to understand the energies of Aquarius is to look at the lives of some super Aquarius people!

1. Rosa Parks February 4, 1913 – October 24, 2005)

Rosa Parks started off her cival rights activism by refusing the orders of the bus driver to give up her seat on the bus to a white person. She just plain got tired of giving into the racial segregation. The Mongomery Bus Boycott was a pretty big deal in starting the end of the absurd "color coding" of the human race!

"I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear. "

-Rosa Parks

2. Bob Marley (February 6, 1945 – 11 May 1981)

Bob Marley was born to a white father, raised by his black mother and lived in a very slummy village called Trenchtown in Jamaica where he was subjected to so much hatred for being biracial and living in poverty.

With his music he spread the awareness of social inequality and encouraged people to stand up for their rights. It was a slow start for people to start to accept him, but progressively and quickly he became an international star. The messages within his songs resulted in him becoming a huge political influence that made him a threat to the controlling powers in the government. Bob Marley was threatened, shot at, wounded, but there was no force stopping this rebel!

It's said that music moves the soul. His music moved millions of souls to take a good look at the walls separating each other and to take action in bringing them down!

“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery.
None but ourselves can free our minds.”
-Bob Marley

3. Abraham Lincoln (February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865)

This guy worked himself up into a position to end the legalization of slavery in the United States of America. With a huge aversion to the grotesqueness of slavery and with a lucid consciousness for the truth of freedom to be expressed through all human beings, he made sure to put a stop to the human enslavement even if it meant creating enough enemies that would plan to and eventually kill him.

"Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world." -Abraham Lincoln

4.Julia Lorain Hill (known as Julia "Butterfly" Hill, born February 18, 1974)

To be a revolutionary, to makes some changes and create some awareness in this world, you have to do "crazy" things, like think outside of the box, step away from the hideous "norm', and....live in a tree! That's what Julia had to do. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Butterfly_Hill

"All life is created in love, and thus in the depths of every human being lies a good heart. Some have lost their path from this love, so it up to us to show them the way." -Butterfly

These are just several people who expressed their sun signs avidly!

Mercury Retrograde Diary :Days 3 and 4

So I have been terrible with keeping up on this Mercury Retrograde Diary!

Well, it is day 12 out of something like 21 days, I think. (What's going on! I don't care for details right now!) :) -andI don't want to edit this after I type so enjoy the typos :D

Well, here is some news that I believe has something to do with mercury retrograde: Yesterday, and for about a week or two, but mostly yesterday, I really wanted to play the guitar. I used to play when I was 12 to 14 years old and would play a little bit here and there when I was 16 to 20 years old.
Well, I wished I had a guitar. I thought about the money that I actually can not spare to get one right now.... so I just wished and forgot about it.
Then Today! I found one for free! It was put on on trash day in my neighborhood. I was walking by it and say a guitar case. I thought, "No.. it's just the case, it's not like there would be a guitar in there!" I almost passed it, but just had to look, and there it was! So I took it. (By the Way, it is Not illegal to take trash from the sidewalk, I actually checked on this, once it is out on the curb, it is on public property and nobody owns it, plus everyone knows the drill: you don't want something, that you could care less about, yet it just might be worth it to someone, so you put it out on the curb and are happy to have someone take it. That's how things work around here. :)
So it was my lucky day I felt. Besides, feeling kind of strange all day from zero hours of sleep.
It's because I drank a coffee last night and I am one who should Not drink coffee, it keeps me up all night, but what the heck, the sun is in Leo, it's time to party, right?

Anyhow, I had to fix the guitar as it was perfectly busted in a way that a little superglue and lots of packing tape fixed it good enough for me.

So I'm tuning it and am going to try to remember some songs.

And I also did dream of having a new instrument about 2 days ago, so this was just meant to be. Plus I almost didn't go that route where I found it. but I got a strong feeling too!

My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Days 3 & 4

2012-07-19T22:54:00.002-04:00

When things go wrong, blame it on Mercury retrograde! I wanted to report in a more detailed way of how things are going for me, but thanks to this Mercury retrograde, my schedule had been flopping around with sudden changes one after the other. Short-term notice is the theme of these past few days.
On the Third day, everything went Not As Planned, and there were a lot of plans. Now today, everything went not as planned again!

I may just have toremember to carry a notebook with me and take notes througout the day and update this little diary on the days and hours that I can squeeze in. Right now, I am exhausted, thanks to Mercury retrograde (lol) so I have to go to bed now to prepare for another day of the unexpected.

(I do plan to update these past 2 days with more detail later on...)

PS
forgive me for the many typos....you know!

My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 2

2012-07-17T05:17:00.006-04:00

( in response to: My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 1)

Last night I made a funny typo on facebook....
Remember how in day 1 I said I was checking my voicemail constantly and yadayada... to get a job I wanted?

Well I have also been checking my email every hour too(and I don't have a smart phone) for inquiries into the job I'm lookng for.

Well last night. I saw that I had a bunch of spam. Usaully when I see that there is over 100 spam emails, I just go and delete it without looking.
I was about to delete it. That's just once click right? But then I got this feeling that I was acting quick, and remebered I that I should be carefull durring this Mercury retrograde. Especially when it comes to emails, and phone calls.
Well, I opened it up, and smothered under all that junk was an email inquiring about the job I was looking for. How strange. I don't understand how it went into the spam section. Good then I checked it.
Well it turns out that I don't want to accept what they offered. I'm worth more than that!

The rest of this day I wrote a lot. Fiction. It's been a while. I used to write a lot of stories and poems all the time, but haven't in a long time. I somehow found the enthusiasm to do it. That's what most of my day was. Reading and writing at home. Though, I did go out earlier. I took a very long walk. I haven't even taken a long walk in a long time.
So reading, writing and walking were a big part of my day. Seems pretty Mercurial to me.

My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 1

2012-07-15T22:28:00.001-04:00

I thought it would be interesting to keep a diary specifically focusing on this transit!

So Mercury going retrograde started at 13 degrees Leo which is in my fourth house. My fourth house starts at 3 degrees Leo so most of this transit will be in my fourth house except for the last 3 days, it will be traveling back into my third house.

Well here is what happened starting last night as it was 10:16pm when Mercury started going retrograde:

I went to work at the office around 7:30pm. I didn't have to be there so late, it really was my choice. I could have worked at home, but I just didn't feel like being home. Then around 4:30 in the morning I left, got on my bicycle and started to ride to someone's house that I take care of sometimes while they are away on vacation. I have rode my bike there many times which is the same route that the bus goes and I have taken the bus there over a hundred times.

As I got into the neighborhood I was riding for a few minutes and felt like I passed the turn I was supposed to take. Everything looked so unfamiliar. I actually turned around and backtracked for a couple of minutes until I realized that I didn't go far enough in the first place, so I turned back around. I didn't remember it being this long down the same street, I just kept on riding, waiting for that one street to come up to turn left on.
Again, I thought that I passed it, but knew I didn't. I found the right street. It was so strange how mixed up I felt about directions that should be very familiar to me.

I got to the house and everything was great. Later, I wanted to go to the store. As I was putting my shoes on I ended up looking at the bottom of my right shoe. These shoes are fairly new, but I was surprised to see a chunk in one spot on the sole of this right shoe was worn away! I knew it was because my bike's right peddle is missing and only has that narrow bar to put my foot on but I didn't know it was eating into my shoe....

As I rode home my right foot started to ache. Looks like I may need new shoes. Too bad it's just the right one that is messed up. And yes, this is a wake up call, I should fix that pedal. I've been riding around with one pedal for a year now. Ha ha, I just got so used to it, I hardly know the difference.

So tonight, I checked my voice-mail messages. (I have been checking it like every 2 hours for the last 2 days, being obsessed with getting a call for a job that I want) Every time I checked it though, it would say you have no new messages, which was a bummer to me. But tonight, just an hour ago, I check the voicemail and it says I have a new message. I was happy to hear that it was someone about a job that I have been waiting for. I press the option to hear the date and time they called.

It says they called YESTERDAY at 5pm!!!! I must have check my voicemail like a dozen times since yesterday. I would have called back right away.
Well, I called them back and it went to their voicemail. I hope my chance hasn't been blown from the delay in my response. Wasn't my fault that my voicemail lied to me! lol

Oh, Mercury Retrograde! Look what you did! ha ha.

Mercury Retrograde Alert!

2012-07-14T19:17:00.003-04:00

Some people who could care less about astrology and the planets have actually surprised me with their knowledge of Mercury retrograde. Nobody can deny this planets doings while in retrograde! Prepare to lose your keys, get flat tires, get lost, lock yourself out of your car, your home, endure the bus and subway delays, misplace your wallet, have your cell phone and internet act wacky or just plain not work. Also, enjoy the abundance of miscommunication!
You just might miss that email or forget to send one. You might even say things that seem to just slip out of your mouth or even become speechless during moments of expected quick-wit.

Appointments could get mixed up. There just seems to be lots of room for "oopses" and forgetfulness during this 3 week period. Mercury does this 3 times a year and it always lasts about 3 weeks.

Starting today, July 14, 2012 at 10:16pm EST, Mercury will appear to be going backwards from your perspective on Earth. This will last until August 8, 2012 at 1:40am EST

Mercury is the planet of communication and quick travels. It rules all means of communication devices whether that is email, the internet in general, home phones, cell phones, the mail service and even your tongue! Mercury also rules all means of traveling be it your bicycle, car, the bus, subway and even your shoes!

This airy mental Planet is also very logical. Thinking quick and brainstorming might not run as smoothly as it should during this time.

If you believe yourself to be immune to Mercury retrograde then good for you. But if you Know that this can mean trouble for the next few weeks, then here are some tips:

Be prepared. Be prepared for traveling delays. Leave a lot earlier than usual. At worst, you will just be early. If you are "immune" to Mercury retrograde, then be patient for the other people who get caught up in delays and keep you waiting.
Double check your emails before you send them. Double check Anything before you proceed with Anything.

Be aware. This is the key.. You can cut your chances of losing things by just being aware of what you are doing at all times. Be aware and you won't end up saying things you wish you didn't say and if you are aware then you will know he right thing to say at the right time. (See links at bottom.)

So what is good about Mercury retrograde?
Mercury retrograde can cause a lot of set backs, but this gives major opportunities to re-think, re-plan, and re-do everything that you did wrong before, but didn't notice until now.

Personally, I like to do a retrospection over my life from these past few months so I can see what mistakes I've made, and correct them during this time in which it is hard to move forward unless you start taking the right steps.

If you are eager to stay on top, get organized, and progress with yourself then this Mercury retrograde will be a great benefit to you if you know how to take advantage of it.
Good luck!

Venus Transits the Sun

2012-06-07T05:26:00.000-04:00

Image Credit : Osvaldo Quintero
This was so beautiful to see with my own eyes! I made my own solar eclipse glasses and was awestruck when I first noticed that little dot passing over the sun. At about 6:30 PM EST on June 5, 2012 I got to see this once-in-a-life-time event. I missed the one in 2004 because I wasn't aware of it. I didn't pay much attention to astronomical events at that time even though I really liked astrology, but I will quote myself in a recent discussion about the 2004 Venus transit: "I remember the one in 2004. I definitely went through a huge shift in my consciousness. I suddenly started meeting with events & people in rare chance opportunities in which the resulting interactions brought about doorways that opened up to new dimensions of being."

So that sums up my experience for 2004, but can I say the same for this year? Well, I'll have to pay attention to the details of my life and wait and see.
But here is something interesting that I still have yet to analyze:
The day before this, on Monday, June 4, 2012, I was introduced to a girl who's birthday is 3 days after mine and who is also 3 years older than me. Her interest and depth of knowledge upon astrology is similar to mine! This was really cool because I have never met anyone with the same amount of interest and knowledge of astrology as myself. I'm sure we will become good friends, and I feel like this is part of what the Venus transit has brought into my life. Also this girl looked just like a girl in my dream the night before which was a dream about acquiring the right flowers in a flower shop......
Then less than an hour later, one of my friends gave me 40 dollars that she owed me, but in which I nearly forgot all about, so it was a surprise to get some "extra" cash that night. Then on my way home I was passing by a flower shop that was closed and it was trash day and in one of the bins were numerous bouquets of flowers! I took two bouquets and they looked similar to the ones in my dream from the night before.
I had this feeling that this was an act of Venus; giving me a friend, money, and flowers, all within 2 hours! My lucky day I guess. But what is luck if not just an auspicious placement of the planets in the sky in relation to your natal chart?

I still have yet to analyze much about this Venus business.

Jupiter and Sun Conjunct, Transits my Ascendant

2012-05-15T08:03:00.001-04:00

So Yesterday, May 14th the Sun was at 23 degrees Taurus which is the degree and sign of my ascendant. Also Jupiter was at this very same degree. The Sun does this once a year, but Jupiter does this only once every 12 years. So for these two planets to be conjunct here is like a big deal. The days and perhaps months leading up to this I in-visioned that I would receive some sort of glory in my life. I don't even think I'm exaggerating here, I admit! lol But yesterday was a regular-old day for me. It was a day like it has been these past couple of weeks. I slept in ans stayed at home doing odd things like spending too much time on youtube and slowly cleaning my house that I got so messy. You might even say that I have been lazy. Though that is not true because five days ago I went on a nearly 30 kilometer spontaneous bike ride and the day before I did a lot of work in the garden. I was out in the Sun for hours using lots of muscle power to dig and transplant onions. I guess the Sun and Jupiter hanging out in Earth sign Taurus may have something to do with it. yes, that's got to be it. Also, Taurus is a bit of a home body so there you have it: the reason why I am playing in the dirt and then staying at home. Another interesting thing is that my home Sun is in Virgo which is also an Earth sign and my home Jupiter is in Capricorn, which is the other of the 3 Earth signs. So what I am doing now is trying to understand this current Jupiter transiting my ascendant. I figure that since this is a very big and slow moving planet that perhaps the full effect won't br realized right away. After all, it is in Taurus and Taurus is patient.

Poetry and Pisces

2011-07-19T22:50:00.001-04:00

Today, as I was browsing through my Facebook account, I noticed that 2 of my friends who do not know each other both posted their statuses in rhyme form, but it was more like poetry. Also another friend posted a link to some music he made and I was surprised to hear him sing, as I didn't know that he sang. This seems like a huge influence of Moon in the sign of Pisces.

Aquarius Moon and the Discovery

2011-07-19T22:47:00.000-04:00

A couple of days ago, as the Moon was still in Aquarius, I made a discovery. Well I finally found the solution to purify my water. Long story short, the guy who owns the company of a major supplier of the product I found out about is an Aquarius. It's interesting because Aquarius is "The Water Bearer."

Capricorn Full Moon

2011-07-15T01:18:00.002-04:00

Capricorn full moon, is an internal fight for control. There is an internal fight for the Superior.

The Sun is Action, The Moon is Feeling. The Sun is in Cancer. Cancer's are not afraid to cry. The moon is in Capricorn. Capricorn is not afraid to hurt someone's feelings if that is what is takes to show them that they are truly the boss.

People can become mountains of emotions that Capricorn climbs to conquer . The dirt that loosens under his hooves, crumbles and trickles down to the bottom like the tears on a Cancer's face glides down the cheeks and dives off the chin.
