Behind the Surge ~ 29 November 2006


Ask the Bush twins what it’s like to have Jupiter with the Sun wildly active in their horoscope. Jupiter, lord of foreign travel and too much of anything, takes the urge to woo-hoo and do to the max all the way to the bank. Submitting to the largest gravitational force in the solar system, the Sun, you just go right over the top. No matter if the news spin is entirely correct, the President’s daughter bore out all the archetypes while in Argentina this past weekend. Going over the line and too much of a good thing gets you sent home. Meanwhile, most normal folks out of the scrutiny of the paparazzi felt the Mars-Saturn square’s clearly defined line to the max. If you succumbed to feelings of impossible inertia, it’s time to get back into the loop. If you demonstrated restraint in the face of annoyance, good on ya! The pipeline carrying the flow of life seemed to narrow. Pressure intensified while less and less evidently made it to the other side. The good news is, that logjam just cleared. Now what will you do?


Let’s look at something immediately on the heels of the Mars-Saturn square’s clearing. Presently Mercury in the “let’s reveal yet another layer” Scorpio opposes the hopefully inspired Neptune. The trident bearer wistfully stirs the surface of the seas of the unconscious with his trusty pitchfork looking for any oracle that might appear in the swirl. Deep in the swirl stirs the dim recollection of the intense fixed sign planetary patterns of challenge that ravaged most the planet for most of this past year. That recollection heightens now as Mercury and Neptune square. More, Neptune squares Sedna and Mercury opposes the Inuit shaman goddess of the seas. Is it a coincidence that seals, one of the sea mammals in her domain up their attacks on humans? Or is it too tidy that an antarctic-animated blockbuster about penguins on the southern polar extreme opened last weekend? Nope, not at all. While these tidbits might provide fodder as filler for conversational lapses at holiday parties while attendees shun the talking point taboos of politics and religion in a time when Jupiter in Sag urges people to open their mouths and in so doing, lift the lid on Pandora’s Box just for fun.


If you’re like most people, you’d be overwhelmed enough not to be amused by trivialities. You want to know what to do. So let’s review a few astro basics While the myth of Sedna contains some reasonably ugly scenarios that make recent elected official and religious leader controversies seem tame, the agenda of Sedna returns to one basic agenda, the result of which is a combination of Leo (her node) and Cancer (her perihelion) influences. Stand on the shore overlooking the ships that appear to be coming in. Select only the opportunities that further your cause and ships that sail upon seas you wish to travel. You already have a port, so you don’t need to find a port for the sake of having a port in a storm. In real life that sounds like: Why change jobs for the sake of changing jobs? Doesn’t that smack of the classic definition of insanity? You know, doing the same thing seeking and/or expecting different results. No wonder history repeats itself.


Sedna places priority on sustenance and shelter. She made her ill-fated choice based upon promises rendered by a person who simply had no ability to fulfill them. She selected the lure of warmth, good food, comfort and to some degree opulence and indulgence. Maybe that’s where it went wrong. Sedna responded to the wooing of excess. She went over the top. So if people take on a mortgage beyond their income’s ability, drink champagne on a beer budget or maintain the pretense of the good life beyond one’s means or party too hard in Argentina, misery sets it. Then comes the petition for relief. In Sedna’s case she issued a lament where propitiation might have been more powerful. When asking the forces that appear to control the fates, requesting self-serving objectives appears shallow, unlike the deep, dark depths of the seas familiar to Sedna. If one offers energy as a sacrifice (meaning the process of becoming worthy and not a compromise or minimization), then the requests meet up with more receptive ears. You know how sound carries over water, right? In water, sound moves four times as fast, however that fits metaphorically. A soulful yearning goes with Sedna on her path. Can you find the soulful yearning? If not, apply some Mercury and Neptune. Offer your dreams as tools of clarifying issues and resolving fears. Write affirmations of far reaching vision. And above all, dive to the depths of understanding required to restore inspiration that appeases the soul with dignified choices and pursuits. Now as Mars and Saturn clear the breakwater (or any sheltering/harboring protection), ease forward with your inner navigational system intact. The seven seas and at least seven different dimensional realities await your reply.
