The Energetic Language of the Soul

A Synthesis of Elemental Modalities, Jungian Psychology, and the Astrological Theories of Stephen Arroyo

By Meagan Moon - Moon Soul Astrology

The emergence of astrological psychology in the late twentieth century represents a profound paradigm shift in the western esoteric tradition, moving from a deterministic and predictive model of celestial influence to a sophisticated language of energy and psychological archetypes.

Central to this transformation is the work of Stephen Arroyo, whose pioneering integration of the four elements and three modalities with Jungian depth psychology redefined the birth chart as a dynamic blueprint of the human energy field. Arroyo’s methodology, first crystallized in his seminal 1975 master’s thesis and subsequent publications, suggest that astrology provides a comprehensive map for understanding the individual's attunement to universal forces and the inherent patterns of energy flow within the psyche.

By recasting ancient symbolism into modern psychological and energetic terms, Arroyo established a framework where the chart serves as a tool for self-knowledge, identity integration, and the unblocking of vital life forces.

Astrology as a Language of Flow

Traditional astrology often struggled with the tension between fate and free will, frequently falling into the trap of moralistic descriptions or fatalistic predictions. The psychological approach, however, views the birth chart as a structural pattern rather than a destined outcome.

Stephen Arroyo’s fundamental premise is that the solar system’s movements impact the individual's "personal energy field," a field that is simultaneously psychological and physical. In this context, astrology is not seen as a causal mechanism where planets "make" things happen, but as an acausal system of synchronicity. This aligns with the "law of correspondences," suggesting that the macrocosmic patterns of the heavens mirror the microcosmic patterns of the human soul.

Health and psychological well-being are thus redefined through the lens of energetics. To be "healthy" in this system means to possess a "free energy flow; the capacity to mobilize, balance, and integrate the various elemental and modal forces operating within the organism.

When energy becomes blocked or imbalanced, it manifests as psychological distress, physical devitalization, or repetitive life patterns that perplex the individual. The chart acts as a diagnostic diagram, allowing the practitioner to see the underlying dynamics and the "tone of energy release" inherent in the person’s makeup.

The Core Principles of Astrological Energetics

The energy approach rests on several key pillars that differentiate it from classical methods. First, it emphasizes the whole chart over isolated aspects, looking for dominant themes and patterns of attunement. Second, it prioritizes the elements and modalities as the primary "substance" and "direction" of energy, respectively. Third, it utilizes the house systems not just as locations for events, but as fields of experience that correlate with specific modes of energy manifestation.

Elements

Fire, Earth, Air, Water - Jungian Functions (Intuition, Sensation, Thinking, Feeling) - The substance of energy release

Modalities - Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable - Modes of Operation (Initiating, Sustaining, Adapting) - The direction and vector of energy flow

Houses - Angular, Succedent, Cadent - Realms of Experience (Action, Security, Learning) - The environmental field for energy discharge

The Four Elements and Jungian Functional Types

The four elements represent the fundamental types of energy that compose the human experience. Stephen Arroyo’s work highlights that the placement of planets in these elements reveals an individual’s general "attunement" and the specific frequency at which they process reality. This elemental framework correlates with Carl Jung’s theory of the four functions of consciousness: Intuition, Sensation, Thinking, and Feeling.

Fire and the Intuitive Function

Fire energy is characterized by spontaneity, radiant vitality, and a powerful need to move energy outward. Psychologically, fire corresponds to the "Intuition" function, which perceives the possibilities, future potentials, and the essential essence of a situation. Individuals with a strong fire emphasis are attuned to the "Identity Experience;" the quest for self-actualization and the expression of their unique will.

Fire is the energy of "becoming," marked by an assertive, often impulsive nature that seeks to inspire and lead. In terms of energy flow, fire is high-frequency and radiant, often described as a "creative fire" that demands an outlet for its abundant vitality.

Earth and the Sensation Function

Earth energy provides the stability, pragmatic focus, and grounding necessary for life in the physical world. It correlates with the "Sensation" function, which deals with the direct perception of the material world through the five senses.

Those with a strong earth emphasis are primarily attuned to the "Material Experience," focusing on practical matters, financial security, and the maintenance of the physical body.

This energy is disciplined, reliable, and deeply connected to the tangible reality of the here-and-now. Earth represents the "stabilizing" force that allows for the manifestation of abstract ideas into physical form.

Air and the Thinking Function

Air energy is intellectual, analytical, and fundamentally communicative. It corresponds to the "Thinking" function, which evaluates life through rational processes, abstract logic, and the categorization of information.

Individuals with an air emphasis are attuned to the "Social and Intellectual Experience," characterized by a curiosity about people and a need for constant mental stimulation. Air energy is unique in its ability to remain detached and objective, viewing situations from multiple angles without being grounded by heavy emotional or material demands. It is the medium of social intelligence and the exchange of ideas.

Water and the Feeling Function

Water energy is emotional, intuitive, and deeply sensitive. It corresponds to the "Feeling" function, which evaluates the world based on subjective values, emotional resonance, and deep internal currents.

Water represents the "Soul and Emotional Experience," dealing with the subconscious, the realm of symbols, and the need for private, inner reflection. Water energy is yielding but powerful; it overcomes obstacles not through direct force, but through persistence and the capacity to adapt to the shape of the container. It is the energy of deep empathy, healing, and the recognition of the invisible undercurrents of life.

Modalities: The Mechanics of Energy Movement

While the elements describe the what of an individual's energy, the modalities; Cardinal, Fixed, and Mutable; describe the how. These modes, also known as quadruplicities, categorize the signs based on their relationship to change and the seasonal cycles. Stephen Arroyo introduced specific mechanical terms to describe the energy flow of each modality: centrifugal, centripetal, and distributive or spiralic.

Cardinal Energy: The Centrifugal Force

The Cardinal modality includes Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. These signs mark the beginning of the seasons and represent the impulse to initiate and create. Arroyo defines Cardinal energy as "centrifugal," meaning it moves outward from a central point.11 This energy is directed toward "The Process of Becoming;" the continual development of identity and direction in life.

Cardinal energy is often described as a force of nature because it brings the energy of its element into the world in a strong, direct way. However, because it is centrifugal, it can sometimes rush forward with such intensity that it leads to a subsequent need to step back once the initial spark has spent its primary force. Individuals with strong cardinal energy are self-starters and go-getters, often experiencing life through a series of "rites of passage" and new beginnings.

Fixed Energy: The Centripetal Force

The Fixed modality consists of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. These signs fall in the middle of the seasons and are concerned with sustaining, maintaining, and concentrating energy. Arroyo characterizes Fixed energy as centripetal, meaning it moves toward the center, seeking to stabilize and consolidate. Psychologically, this mode represents "The Way We Power Our Lives," providing the willpower, focus, and stamina necessary to manifest goals.

Fixed energy is characterized by tenacity and persistence. While often viewed as resistant to change, it is more accurately described as a mode that requires a significant fuel source to maintain its course. It is the energy of the stabilizer, ensuring that what has been initiated is built to last.

However, its centripetal nature can lead to stubbornness or a refusal to compromise if the individual becomes overly focused on a single point of stability.

Mutable Energy: The Distributive and Spiralic Force

The Mutable modality includes Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. These signs occur at the end of the seasons and are tasked with transforming and adapting energy so that a new cycle can begin. Arroyo describes Mutable energy as "spiralic" or "distributive". This energy does not move strictly outward or inward; instead, it circulates, adjusts, and disperses.

Mutable energy is flexible, multitasking, and open-minded. Psychologically, it represents the need to find a "greater meaning" that underlies all things and to distribute individual creations to the collective whole. Because it is distributive, individuals with strong mutable energy can sometimes struggle with consistency or a lack of direction, but they excel at coping with the unexpected and seeing life from a global perspective.

The Twelve-Sign Energetic Matrix

The intersection of the four elements (the energy substance) and the three modalities (the energy flow) results in the twelve zodiac signs, each representing a unique cosmic attribute and energy frequency.

The Fire Triplicity: Expressions of Vitality

Aries (Cardinal Fire): This is the centrifugal expression of fire. It initiates through pure, passionate vitality and charisma. Aries uses the force of fire to pioneer new paths, often acting with a bold, dynamic, and feisty personality that is never afraid to go first.

Leo (Fixed Fire): This is the centripetal expression of fire. It concentrates vitality and charisma to maintain established structures. Leo is ruled by the Sun and seeks the spotlight, using its persistent energy to sustain creative identity and exert authority.

Sagittarius (Mutable Fire): This is the spiralic expression of fire. It uses vitality to change and transform the world through truth-seeking. Sagittarius acts as a "truth-seeker" that burns down false beliefs to find ultimate meaning, transforming the fire of identity into philosophical expansion.

The Earth Triplicity: Expressions of Form

Capricorn (Cardinal Earth): This is the centrifugal expression of earth. It initiates through practical discipline and ambition. Capricorn takes the initiative to succeed in material matters, acting with the determination of a CEO to build enduring social or career structures.

Taurus (Fixed Earth): This is the centripetal expression of earth. It concentrates on preserving material and emotional security. Taurus is grounded, patient, and intensely steady, providing the stability needed for long-term growth and sensory enjoyment.

Virgo (Mutable Earth): This is the spiralic expression of earth. It adapts through analytical refinement and attention to detail. Virgo focuses on adjusting and perfecting the material world, transforming earth into a refined state of service and functionality.

The Air Triplicity: Expressions of Thought

Libra (Cardinal Air): This is the centrifugal expression of air. It initiates through relationships and social connection. Libra uses the intellect to forge connections and create harmony, taking the lead in diplomatic efforts to smooth over conflicts.

Aquarius (Fixed Air): This is the centripetal expression of air. It concentrates on intellectual independence and innovative willpower. Aquarius is strong-willed and independent, maintaining its principles and vision with a progressive, often philosophical, steadiness.

Gemini (Mutable Air): This is the spiralic expression of air. It adapts through communicative curiosity. Gemini is quick-witted and versatile, distributing information and shifting between ideas with a flexibility that avoids stagnation.

The Water Triplicity: Expressions of Emotion

Cancer (Cardinal Water): This is the centrifugal expression of water. It initiates through nurturing and protective intuition. Cancer takes the initiative to create secure domestic fortresses and protect loved ones, moving emotional energy outward to provide care.

Scorpio (Fixed Water): This is the centripetal expression of water. It concentrates on intense emotional loyalty and deep investigation. Scorpio is mysterious and persistent, using its focused willpower to uncover hidden truths and maintain emotional power.

Pisces (Mutable Water): This is the spiralic expression of water. It adapts through dreamy empathy and artistic compassion. Pisces dissolves boundaries to connect with a broader meaning, transforming emotional experience into a spiritual or creative flow.

Jungian Depth Psychology and Astrological Archetypes

The alignment between Stephen Arroyo’s energy approach and Jungian psychology rests on the shared understanding of archetypes as universal, primordial principles. In this framework, the planets are viewed as archetypal functions within the psyche. For example, the Sun represents the archetype of the Self—the integrating center of the personality—while the Moon represents the archetype of the Soul or the "Relational Matrix of Life".

Individuation and the Birth Chart

Jungian individuation—the process of becoming one's own true self—is central to Arroyo’s interpretation of the birth chart. Arroyo argues that "the goal of psychic development is the self" and that this journey is not a linear progression but a "circumambulation of the self".

The chart reveals the structural patterns of this circumambulation, indicating the specific elemental and modal dynamics that the individual must navigate to achieve wholeness.

A key contribution of Arroyo is the recognition that an individual's level of consciousness cannot be judged solely by the astrological data. The chart shows the "seed-tendencies" and archetypal patterns, but how those patterns are lived depends on the individual's awareness. A person with a challenging configuration (such as a T-square in fixed signs) may experience it as a perpetual blockage if they lack awareness, or as a source of immense power and focus if they have integrated the underlying energies.

Synchronicity vs. Causality

The Jungian concept of synchronicity—the meaningful coincidence of internal psychological states and external events—is the theoretical foundation of modern astrological psychology. Arroyo posits that true nature is acausal and synchronous rather than causal. This perspective encourages an attitude of meditating, attuning, and aligning with the signs of the universe rather than trying to force or control reality through the ego. By reading the "language of energy" in the chart, the individual can harmonize with the universal rhythms, moving from a state of conflict to one of alignment.

Energy Management: Balance, Dominance, and Deficiency

A practical application of the Arroyo approach involves the quantitative and qualitative analysis of elemental and modal balance in the birth chart. This diagnostic process allows the individual to identify their "strong" and "weak" energies, which is the first step toward psychological integration.

The Weighted Scoring System for Energy Attunement

Stephen Arroyo developed a 14-point scale to determine the emphasis of elements and modalities in a natal chart. This system acknowledges that certain points in the chart—specifically the Luminaries and the Ascendant—carry more weight in defining the individual's energy field than the outer planets.

Chart Point System by planet- Significance in Energy Flow

(**or you can go on astroseek and let them tell you your Donovan element and modality.)

Sun = 3 points. The central drive for identity and vital energy release.

Moon = 3 points. The primary emotional attunement and subconscious reactivity.

Ascendant= 2 points. The persona and the primary interface with the world

Mercury = 1 point. The intellectual and communicative flow.

Venus = 1 point. The relational and aesthetic attunement.

Mars= 1b point. The assertive and physical energy output.

Jupiter= 1 point. The expansive and philosophical direction.

Saturn = 1 point. The structured and disciplined consolidation.

Uranus= 0.5 point. Subtle, innovative/disruptive collective influence.

Neptune= 0.5 point. Subtle, empathetic/dissolving collective influence.

Pluto= 0.5 point. Subtle, transformative/intense collective influence 15

Midheaven= 0.5 point. The social direction and career attunement.

Calculate your Total Points.

Interpreting Energy Concentrations

Predominance: An element or mode is considered predominant if it carries more than 5 out of 14 points (for elements) or more than 6 out of 14 points (for modalities). A predominant energy indicates a natural, often automatic, way of being. For example, a predominance of Fixed energy suggests a steady, determined, but potentially stubborn nature.

Deficiency: An energy is considered weak or deficient if it has 0 or 1 point (for elements) or 0 to 2 points (for modalities). A deficiency does not mean the quality is absent from the person's life; rather, it indicates that the individual is not naturally attuned to that frequency.

Stephen Arroyo explains that a missing element often acts as a vacuum, where the person may feel a chronic sense of "lacking" and may overcompensate by obsessing over activities related to that element. For example, a person with zero Earth may become hyper-focused on material organization precisely because it does not come naturally to them.

Guidance for Energy Balancing and Integration

One of the most revolutionary aspects of Stephen Arroyo’s work is the focus on "recharging" the energy field. Because daily life can be devitalizing, individuals must consciously tune into the energies that nourish their specific elemental makeup or compensate for their deficiencies.

Mechanisms for Recharging and Balancing

Conscious Tuning through Activities-

Engagement in specific activities can revitalize an underemphasized element. For example, individuals lacking Water may find recharging in swimming, artistic expression, or quiet meditation. Those lacking Fire may need assertive exercise or leadership roles to "ignite" their vitality.

Environmental Attunement-

The physical environment can act as a battery for the personal energy field. A person with a Fire predominance may feel devitalized in cold, damp climates, whereas a Water-dominant person might feel "scorched" in dry, high-heat environments.

Relational Compensation-

We often attract people who possess the elements we lack. An intensive relationship with someone whose chart balances our own can help us learn to tune into those missing frequencies, though it can also cause tension if the underlying energetic differences are not understood.

Polarity Therapy and Holistic Health -

Arroyo advocates for the integration of Polarity Therapy, which unblocks the subtler energy fields (the "soul-matrix") as they travel through the body. Health is defined as a free flow of energy in interconnection with the environment.

Holistic healers might use the astrological profile to recommend specific diets, gross-body practices (like chiropractic), or subtle-body practices (like acupuncture) to balance the organism.

Personalized Journal Prompts for Elemental and Modal Integration

Journaling serves as a powerful tool for psychological self-understanding, allowing the individual to witness the inner forces of their chart in action. The following prompts are designed to explore the Jungian functional types (elements) and the operational modes (modalities).

Exploring the Elements (Jungian Functions)

Fire (Intuition)-

Reflect on a moment when you felt a sudden burst of inspiration or an impulsive need to act. What did that 'radiant' energy feel like in your body? In what area of your life do you feel most free to be your authentic, charismatic self?

Earth (Sensation)-

Sit quietly and notice three physical sensations in your body right now. How do these sensations ground you? Consider your current practical goals; what small, disciplined step can you take today to manifest one of them in the physical world?.

Air (Thinking): Think of a complex idea or social situation you have been analyzing lately. What happens when you step back and look at it with total detachment? How does constant mental stimulation affect your peace of mind, and where can you find a balance between thinking and 'being'?.

Water (Feeling)-

Identify a strong emotion you have been carrying. If that emotion were a river, where would it be flowing? Write a dialogue starting with: 'I am my sadness/joy/fear, and what I need to say is...' What does your soul need to feel safe and nurtured today?

Exploring the Modalities (Energy Flow)

Cardinal (Centrifugal)-

Think about the last time you initiated a major change. What was the 'spark' that moved you outward? Do you find yourself 'sitting on the fence' between the past and the future, and if so, what would it take to fully cross the crossroads?.

Fixed (Centripetal)-

In what area of your life are you most resistant to change? Is this resistance protecting something valuable, or is it preventing necessary growth? How do you 'power' your long-term goals when the initial excitement has faded?

Mutable (Spiralic)-

Reflect on a recent time when your best-laid plans didn't go as expected. How did you adapt? What 'unexpected benefit' can you find in that chaos, and how did it help you see the broader meaning of your situation?

The Future of Astrological Psychology

The integration of astrology and psychology, as championed by Stephen Arroyo, represents a "rebuilding of our lost connections with the cosmos". By moving away from the "fatalism and negativity" of old-fashioned models, this energy approach empowers the individual to take responsibility for their own consciousness.

Astrology, in this light, is not a divination tool used to know the future, but a method for becoming the most authentic version of oneself in the present.

As the field evolves, the use of astrology in the counseling arts continues to expand, providing a language of archetypes and energies that transcends separate disciplines. It offers a cosmic framework for understanding human personality, behavior, and growth, acknowledging that we are not separate from the universe but are interactive participants in its ever-changing cycles.

Through the lens of elemental energetics and modal flow, the birth chart becomes more than a map; it becomes a living guide for the journey of the soul.

Pallas in Sagittarius ♐️ Rx

Pallas in Sagittarius ♐️ went retrograde today through July 9th.

For those that are unfamiliar, Pallas Athene, she is technically a dwarf planet, not an asteroid, so don't under estimate her energy! She is associated with and governs the signs of Libra, Aquarius, and Leo.

She's a warrior queen; the virgin goddess of wisdom; a strategist, and was invincible in battle!

The mythology behind Pallas Athene starts with her birth from the head of Zeus, or otherwise known as Jupiter! Named after Athens in Greece, she is the goddess of wisdom and justice, and is a protector.

She has creative intelligence, she is sexual through the utilization of Venus. Her essence brings together mental qualities from the air elements( Libra & Aquarius) while her creativity attributes hail from the fire sign of Leo. These 3 signs form an aspect pattern that combines the opposition, trine, and sextile. This aspect configuration in the kite family stabilizes the inherent power of Libra- Aquarius trine, while the Leo- Aquarius opposition provides a focal point for the release of creative tension.

Pallas has an amazing story and she is most definitely a goddess that is undeniably fascinating. If you're interested in learning about her mythology more &/or what she represents and values astrologically, please lmk in the comments, I'd be happy to do a full write up on her.

For now here's some basic info on her rulerships and what Pallas going retrograde can mean to the collective.

As I've mentioned she's a goddess of wisdom, so she can indicate intelligence, genius, learning problems, perception of patterns and skills, foresight, artistic abilities ranging from the visual arts to pottery & domestic crafts like weaving or knitting, to musical instruments.(& oh so much more!!!)

She signifies healing powers, both mental and physical, homeopathy, psychological healing to cellular regeneration.

She is a goddess of justice and rules over political activism,a champion of the people, and a warrior for feminism. Having a well placed Pallas and Eris in your chart can certainly point to a champion and defender of the people, but most importantly for women! She brings in so much strength, it's seriously a shame that her (Eris, Ceres, Psyche & Vesta for starters) aren't talked about more and used more in chart readings being that they're dwarf planets, not asteroids...

♐️🪬Pallas Retrograde✨️🧿

As with any retrograde planet this period is about introspection. Pallas symbolizes our capacity for wisdom, strategy, and the warrior spirit within us. She urges us to fight for our beliefs and truths. However, when in retrograde, especially being in the expansive and truth-seeking sign of Sagittarius, the invitation is not external conquests. It's a deep, introspective pilgrimage into the realms of our innermost thoughts and beliefs. This retrograde period becomes a sacred pause, allowing us to sift through the sediment of our convictions, to question what we have accepted as truth, and to confront the philosophies that guide our minds and lives. It is a call for you to start an inbound journey that's just as significant as any outward exploration.

Pallas retrograde in Sagittarius magnifies & intensifies our search for truth and justice. Daring us to dream and think bigger, to question boundaries, ideologies, and outdated beliefs. She's asking us to let go of what no longer serves our highest good and to make room for new spiritual, mental, and authentic philosophies & ideologies & become more authentic with ourselves and with others. Asking you to become more braver than you ever have before in your life. This isn't always an easy retrograde but the results give you the potential to live to your most highest and most profound achievements. To balance all that inner wisdom, strength, creativity, and perception to not only heal yourself physically but mentally and emotionally as well.

This may be uncomfortable to start with especially with Mercury Retrograde around the corner(& North Node- Chiron conjuct), but by embracing it and working through it, the end results will be out of this world! I mean who doesn't want to live with a balanced inner warrior soul? Open yourself up to receive this wisdom, insight, power, and energy! It will not be easy, but the best things are never easy.

Adding in the Mercury Rx-Chiron- North Node conjunction & the solar eclipse(all in Aries mind you) this is no coincidence that she is going retrograde at this moment in time!

We are living in a karmic number 8 year; ruled by Saturn; the year of the 🐉 dragon! The dragon just happens to represent the nodes of destiny and karma -

with all these energies lining up before and after the solar eclipse I truly believe the universe has something magical and maybe even a but intense lined up for us.

So embrace all this energy positively and harness it not only for you on a personal level, but for humanity, as well!

Evolutionary Astrology of the soul.Uranus placements and soul trauma thru signs, houses, and aspects.

●Uranus in the 1st House, Aries or in aspect to Mars With this placement trauma can result from a difficulty in accepting limitations. Such limitations may be physical or psychological and the trauma occurs in the individual’s struggle to maintain personal freedom. In difficult cases there is a superhuman complex in which the individual fundamentally denies the limitation, and then pushes themselves to the point of exhaustion, illness or breakdown. This placement may correspond to memories of having died at a young age in recent prior lives. The subconscious fear of this happening again drives the individual to further push themselves. To the extent that prior judgments or limitations were externally imposed on the individual there may be a fear of further entrapment, or if such limitations have been internalized, there is a fear of losing control. As the will becomes frozen by traumatic experience there is the potential for the individual to experience the subconscious fear that taking action will itself lead to destruction.

●Uranus in the 2nd House, Taurus or in aspect to Venus With this placement trauma occurs around the issue of the value system. Imposed change to a cherished value system or identified resource can cause upheaval and mental suffering. This trauma can arise either from without (via an external event or authority) or within (via a new insight). There may be memories of huge shifts in fortunes and material resources. To the extent that fear and the desire for egocentric control saw the individual manipulate others for material or psychological gain in past lives, they may experience profound loss or reduced circumstance in direct proportion to the prior misuse of resources. This signature can link to personal and collective experiences of loss (war, mass displacement and famine for example), including loss of life. Memories of such losses may produce a tendency in the individual to become stuck in survival mode in which they have limited the extent to which they open their consciousness to new experiences or to other people because of prior-life fears of loss. In these cases, the incursion of events or the needs of others challenge the person, who has intentionally walled-off their consciousness to new experience. Opening to these new influences can become the basis for re-traumatization if mishandled as the stress of the new opens the condensed insecurity of the past, which then threatens to overwhelm the person.

●Uranus in the 3rd House, Gemini or in aspect to Mercury With this placement trauma is caused by external or internal confrontations to the way one intellectually understands one’s reality. A strong identification with the thinking process and nature of one’s beliefs can cause huge stress if those thoughts/beliefs are undermined. At its worst this can manifest as the individual feeling alienated from the world around them, as they experience themselves as being on a completely different wavelength from others. Trauma can occur through a lack of reception for the ideas one does communicate, leaving the individual unheard or silenced. Isolation can occur through resisting participation in the world around them either because of actual rejection or through rigidity in the mental life formed as a defense against potential rejection.

●Uranus in the 4th House, Cancer or in aspect to the Moon With this placement trauma originates in the lack of nurture or emotional empathy in the early home life. This then leads to the displacement of emotions, whereby the unresolved childhood feelings arise during adulthood in problematic ways. These emotional ghosts or residues from the past can lead to a re-traumatizing effect, whereby the original pain experienced with the parents is recreated without resolution via intimate partners/friends. There may be a problem with the mother in this life, an issue that often has prior-life roots. Many of these individuals have experienced lifetimes wherein the family or early life context has lacked safety. This had the effect of creating radical insecurity in the individual – the feeling that, emotionally speaking, there is nowhere one can feel at home. The individual is then forced to redirect their attention inside in order to discover a source of security from within. However, this internal redirection may or may not happen. This process in itself can be traumatic and can lead to ego fracturing, mental splitting and breakdown in some cases.

●Uranus in the 5th House, Leo or in aspect to the Sun With this placement trauma can result from the lack of acknowledgment of one’s gifts or creative contribution to the world, and also corresponds to periods where one has experienced a fall from grace. Trauma could have occurred in the past because the self image was unrealistically high – a feeling of superhuman ability or that one exists without fault. Feedback in this life to the contrary can be destabilizing. Prior-life unconscious memories of achievement or high status only fuel the frustration experienced around lack of acknowledgement. This also corresponds to an internally or externally directed need for total change (Uranus applying to the Sun, the centre of the life force). This situation is inherently insecure as most people base their sense of security on what is familiar, and this change in extremis can promote traumatic mental disassociation or breakdown.

●Uranus in the 6th House, Virgo, or in aspect to Mercury With this placement trauma can occur through experiences of persecution or critical feedback from the external environment. Such persecution can be either objective (e.g. the Inquisition) or subjective (fear of the Inquisition). The incursion of both objective persecution and then the subjective fear of such persecution can problematically intertwine throughout multiple lifetimes. This may result in a deep-rooted sense of inadequacy, a feeling of not being ready for life or good enough to make life work. The individual may struggle to find the right work, or to reform the work that they do. Trauma can occur when the work is compromised, denied or morally corrupt in some way. The feeling of never being ready, of never fully self-actualizing can become its own vicious cycle whereby the individual is re-traumatizing themselves over and over as they move from one crisis to another. Here crisis itself can become a mentality, a method, an addiction. A feeling of victimization as a result of the pattern and a resulting isolation only compounds the problem. This placement can also indicate a situation in which the powers of discrimination were fractured or flawed in some way, leading to the potential for extreme cycles of behavior – total lack of discrimination in chaotic hedonism or near puritan levels of restriction, for example. Both extremes involve the attempt to respond to the inner emptiness and self-criticism.

●Uranus in the 7th House, Libra, or in aspect to Venus With this placement trauma can be experienced through sudden or unexpected changes within the given relationship structures of a person’s life. Unexpected termination of partnerships, the sudden shift from partner to friend, friend to partner can all cause problems for the individual who has based their security on the previous form of the relationship. Trauma here is experienced via expectations that the individual projects onto others and the projections made from others onto them. A high degree of irrational thought and action may exist within relationships. The scale of trauma runs from excessive dependency to fear of dependency (destroying any relationship that comes close to really mattering). As a result of sudden change and loss some of these individuals will develop a detachment from others that is traumatic to the extent that it is dissociative and can result in pronounced loneliness.

●Uranus in the 8th House, Scorpio, or in aspect to Pluto With this placement trauma often occurs through an experience of betrayal (real or imagined) whereby the person to whom one has been committed appears to (or actually does) undergo a nightmarish change of personality or direction, leaving the individual deprived. There can be trauma with this placement relating to sadistic abuse and/or psychological torture of or by others. This may take the form of sexual abuse or the use of sex to manipulate or hold power over another. The impact of such experiences can leave people unable or unwilling to trust again. The individual may approach relationships as a process of psychological confrontation, or test of wills. Understanding the history of these experiences can result in the individual amassing acute psychological understanding but also brings with it the potential for such knowledge to be used aggressively – with the aggression fuelled by the fear that has resulted from prior experiences of betrayal. This can result in a “get them before they get me” mentality.

●Uranus in the 9th House, Sagittarius or in aspect to Jupiter With this placement trauma occurs via personal belief systems which may run counter to the prevailing norms in the environment. This can lead to alienation from the culture or family unit into which one has been born. This alienation may pervade the consciousness, leading to an ongoing fear of misjudgment, of being taken the wrong way. Traumatic experiences may result when belief systems that are extremely fixed and important to the individual are challenged in some way. Mental suffering occurs in direct proportion to the identification that was invested in the belief system in the first place. In extreme cases the alienation or loss of belief can promote a state of complete defeatism or despair, as if the world experienced inside has absolutely no relationship to the one “out there.” Fundamentalism and/or holy war against others who threaten dearly-held beliefs become possible responses.

●Uranus in the 10th House, Capricorn or in aspect to Saturn With this placement trauma can occur through one or both of the parents being dysfunctional or completely lacking in empathy. The lack of validation on a parental level can easily extend into society, whereby the person can struggle to feel accepted or validated. At its most extreme the mental trauma of feeling such a lack of acceptance or judgment from one’s family or society can produce deep depression and despair. Many prior-life memories of a judgmental family and/or culture of origin may compound the problem. This can produce a compressed psychology, a repressive emotional make-up and a psychology of futility as those in power never offer understanding or validation. As a result the individual can feel that there is no point to their life or to anything that they do. Trauma emerges from the sense of being judged and shamed. There may be prior-life memories of being scapegoated by family or tribe and carrying a burden of guilt in isolation.

●Uranus in the 11th House, Aquarius With this placement trauma occurs due to a realization that the individual is not living a life that reflects their true nature. The discovery of the inner lie or false self can be profoundly shocking. There may have been an experience of rejection or punishment when trying to live in a different fashion to the mainstream. Such shocks or fears of imagined (or actual) responses from the environment can promote a psychology of hiding which itself becomes the basis of feeling that the individual is living with an inner lie. Trauma may be experienced though friendships or groups, in that they suddenly change their view of the individual and may even be highly critical or persecutory. This placement refers to the evolutionary intention to detach and in so doing to experience a radical break from all restrictive prior conditioning. As security is constituted primarily through familiarity, this need can create enormous mental stress and anxiety which can cripple the person and prevent them achieving the desired freedom from the past.

●Uranus in the 12th House, Pisces or in aspect to Neptune With this placement trauma can occur as the personality itself begins to dissolve or fall apart under external or internal pressure and stress. This can result in a need for escapism, either through substance use, excessive fantasy or delusion, all of which can lead to madness and/or disturbed behavior. Trauma corresponds to memories of imprisonment and persecution which inculcate a psychology of hiding from others and from life itself. To the extent that the spiritual impulse remains unrealized there exists a capacity for powerful disillusionment, fear and loss of meaning. In extreme cases, states of catatonia, mental imbalance and psychosis all represent the epitome of withdrawal from life. Others may endlessly sleep or retreat into fantasy life to escape the demands of the actual. Still others may never properly sleep, haunted instead by dreams which include present anxieties blurred into prior-life memories of struggle and meaninglessness. In rare cases the phenomena of psychic attack, possession by “entities” and feelings of having lost a part of the self may have occurred.

Black Moon Lilith Through the House's

What house is your Black Moon Lilith occupying?

In astrology, Lilith represents the part of you that is in the shadow. It is something that is painful and we try to avoid facing it whenever we can. However, from time to time we are forced to discover it and work through its issues. The house where your Lilith is located in your birth chart tends to be quite problematic. Lilith is rebellious, wounded, traumatized, and she expresses herself in a destructive way.

Ceres in Capricorn ♑️

On February 27, 2024 Ceres made a transit from the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius into the half-goat , half-fish, Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn ♑️!

Capricorn being an earth sign and Ceres archetype is of the great mother, ultimate nuturer and also the goddess of agriculture and harvest! The Roman goddess Ceres is also known as the Greek goddess Demeter & she is Persephone's mother. Their story is quite archaic, enchanting, haunting, traumatic, poetic, loving, fierce, & sad; but their story can grasp the everyday person in one of its many versions whether through a short story, a book, or even a movie.

There are truly a number of different versions to their story. No matter which one is told most people(particularly women or the males that doesn't mind sharing their feminine side) can relate to. These different versions have been changed up over the thousands of years to further fit modern day times and way for you to connect and resonate on deeper level with them. I did write up a short blog on Persephone a month or so ago with information including Ceres(Demeter)& was planning a follow up for a full story on the myths of Ceres and all her astrological rulerships.

When I suddenly realized today that she had moved into Capricorn 3 days ago and is already sitting in Cap at 7°57'. So I'll post the link in the comments for the Persephone article and if your interested in reading it you have access to it without scrolling through my entire page! I will finish up the goddess of agriculture's mythology piece this month, so this article is just going to focus on her in Capricorn and what she means for the collective and even for your personal natal chart.

Ceres is associated with 3 zodiac signs; Virgo, Cancer, and the Taurus-Scorpio polarity axis. I do love the connection to the ♉️♏️ polarity, but I equate Persephone to be connected more to that being the queen of the underworld and goddess of spring. But don't get me wrong, Ceres also most definitely has a strong connection to those 2 signs as well, being so connected to our mother earth and the Eleusinian Mysteries(or Rites), being connected to the Hierophant tarot card, and her adversary being Pluto who made her turn dark when her daughter had been stolen from her.

The sign of Cancer being the ruler of the Moon and one of Cancer's archetype is the great mother and she deeply loved and nurtured her daughter Persephone so you can clearly see a connection to Cancer ♋️. As for Virgo and the symbol of the triple moon goddess you have the virgin, which is Persephone, Ceres as the mother (maiden), and Hecate the crone. So you can see how she absolutely fits all three of these rulerships. Knowing the archetypes of the planets and signs is something that absolutely needs to be learned especially if you want to fully understand astrology. So let's get on with this if you haven't already skipped to the end or scrolled on by yet. If you've made it this far thank you for sticking around!

☆Ceres in Capricorn - Ascension of the architect!

Ceres in the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn ♑️ brings opportunities of strategic thinking and responsible leadership! Moving into spring with Ceres in Capricorn will help bring energy to your green thumb and if you feel you lack that I urge you to look more into your Ceres placement and aspects! She truly does send out a great energy if you're looking to start a garden or learn how cook.

Being that Capricorn doesn't care to show their emotions and Ceres being the all time super nuturer of all life on earth, she may energetically make you feel emotionally vulnerable by being in Capricorn. So a goal with Ceres in Capricorn is to make yourself emotionally available no matter how uncomfortable it feels. Same goes for trying out that garden when you feel like you're the type of person that could kill a fake plant. You need to seize control and have faith in yourself that you can grow those plants, just like you show your feelings towards someone or something even though you're feeling it's too awkward.

Ask Ceres for the help, she'll give you the answers. The path forward is never easy but once you've stepped out of that comfort zone the more adaptable you'll become.

Ceres in Capricorn envelops you in a steadfast, resolute embrace. With the heart of a master builder, your journey becomes one of discipline, perseverance, and the unwavering pursuit of your ambitions. Like the majestic goat, you navigate the rugged terrain with grace and determination. Embrace the transformative power of dedication and resilience as you embark on this quest with Ceres in Capricorn.

Allow the heights of your own ambition to guide you through the awe-inspiring tapestry of self-discovery, trusting in your innate ability to triumph over challenges. Honor Capricorn's indomitable spirit by nurturing your inner architect and setting your sights on your loftiest goals. Craft a blueprint for success, breaking your aspirations into manageable steps, and celebrate each milestone along the way. By building a foundation of integrity, your steadfast resolve will inspire others to follow in your footsteps.

Reflect on how you can translate the mountainous climb towards your dreams into a journey of self-transformation and personal growth. What strategies can you employ to stay disciplined, persevere, and maintain unwavering focus on your ambitions? How will your achievements inspire and uplift others along the way?

What sign and house is your Ceres in? Do you have any aspects to your natal Ceres? Comment below!

This post will also be followed up with Ceres thru the houses and signs as well as her astrological rulerships, indicators, and significators.

I would love to see more astrology lovers following Ceres, Juno, Eros, Eris, White Moon Selene, Vesta, Psyche, Abundantia, Cupido, Armor, and the list can go on and on... A lot of these asteroids are changing signs this year so start brushing up on them now! I'll do my best to keep you updated as they transit! Thanks for reading!!

Asteroid Juno Info and thru signs and houses

Juno's rulerships are connected to Libra and Scorpio. Juno rules over relationships, marriage, and sex. She's a higher octave of Venus energy. She's also an indicator of women's cycles and, on an occult level, rules over spiritual use of sexual energy, particularly within a marriage commitment. Juno describes the need for a deeply committed and just relationship, including the range of suffering and neurotic complexes that arise when the relationship is denied or frustrated. Juno depicts the issue of sexual infidelity as well as the oppression and force that are often used to maintain it. She represents the humility, shame, anger, and revenge that erupts when the slighted partner finally retaliates. Juno is the significator for the jealousy and resentment that emerges when a partner does not feel adequately acknowledged for the sacrifices the native has made. Juno describes the ways in which we face the issues of compatability, receptivity to others, mutual sharing, trust, jealousy, possessiveness, and power struggles. Juno stands up for women's rights. She is a symbol for the powerless, like abused women and children, disabled, minorities, rape, and incest. Juno is also associated with the atmosphere.

Thru the signs, she describes 12 styles of relating and meeting our intimacy needs. Thru the houses, Juno shows where we are most likely to experience the need to relate and in what area of life experience we will encounter or most important relationship lessons. Juno's aspects to the planets describe how the relatedness function may be integrated with other parts of our personality. Harmonious aspects point to an easy blending while hard aspects signify potential conflicts between the relating urge and other psychic requirements of the individual. Juno's sign and house position in your chart also describes qualities that we seek in our ideal mate.

Juno thru the signs:

♈️Aries: natives need independence and freedom in relationships. Outbursts of temper and anger are the release mechanisms for the frustrate need for autonomy. The suppression of identity needs can rise to illnesses such as migraine headaches. Attraction to a domineering and assertive individual is possible when one projects one's power onto the partner.

♉️Taurus: These natives need stability and groundedness in their relationships. Their partner must be dependable, reliable, and excuse the sensual contact of being there. Nagging, complaining about money, and excessive need to possess tangible assets can result from fears of abandonment, financial impoverishment, and physical insecurity. People might either experience these traits or attract partners who express the agitator.

♊️Gemini: The native indicates the need to have verbal stimulation and exchange in a relationship. The capacity to discuss day-to-day plans and having a variety of activities in which to participate together are essential ingredients. A lack of daily communication can lead to nervous tension, intermental agitation of imagined dialogues, or continual verbal monologues. There can exist the desire for more than one mate and an ability to handle multiple relationships.

♋️Cancer: These natives desire emotional closeness and nurturing from their relationship. Sharing food as a ritual and a strong emphasis on home life are essential. Moodiness, withdrawal, clinging, and dependent behavior arise when these emotional needs are not secured.

♌️Leo: These natives need admiration and excitement in their relationship. The Romantic rights of courtship need to continue into the marriage, and the person must take pride in the partner. Being taken for granted, rejected, or ignored can produce egocentric, selfish behavior and inappropriate means of gaining attention.

♍️Virgo: These natives desire to achieve perfection in the relationship. A willingness of the partner to engage in analyzing day-to-day functioning and adjusting daily habit patterns contributes to the sense of a working relationship. These individuals may become overly critical, finding, and compulsive when their partner is unwilling to make these adjustments.

♎️Libra: These natives need to feel as equal and require a fair give and take in their relationship. Consultation from their partner on decision-making and respect and approval for their ideas are required. When equality needs or is not met, these individuals can become uncooperative, excessively competitive, or even engage in direct combat.

♏️Scorpio: These natives crave emotional and sexual intensity and intimate bonding with their partner. There can exist the tendency to attempt to control their partner or to desire exclusive attention from them. Jealousy, manipulation, and territoriality or sexual withdrawal reactions to the thwarting or denial of these needs.

♐️Sagittarius: These natives require intellectual stimulation with their partner. Consensus on a belief system or a mutually shared vision of the future is required. Rigid insistence on one's own beliefs, religious fanaticism, or inflated expectations of the future can result when a unifying vision is not shared.

♑️Capricorn: These natives seek depth and the assurance of long-term commitment in their relationship, and therefore, they need the security of traditional and legally sanctioned forms. These individuals may attempt to control their partners and demand obedience or withdrawal emotionally if their need for respect and stability is threatened.

♒️Aquarius: These natives require the freedom to be an individual and have a life apart from the relationship. These individuals need to have the opportunity to experiment with new relationship forms such as an open marriage or role reversals. When the Juno and Aquarius partners are denied their freedom, they may engage in noncommittal, unreliable, or erratic behavior.

♓️Pisces: These natives desire to realize their highest ideals through their relationship. Complete faith, commitment, and reverence toward their partner are what give meaning and value. Disillusionment, withdrawal, escapism into fantasy and self deception, martyrdom, and victimization result when these idealistic expectations are not met.

10h- 10th house natives can signify the person who marries his or her career. In addition, one's relationship may be on public display or provide a role model for other people to emulate. Partnership may come the means for gaining social status. The most important relationship interactions occur through one's profession or career.

11h- 11th house individuals need friendship and acceptance from their partner. One's relationship unit needs to be able to extend into friends and group associations, extended family forms, social and political activism, and group marriage. There is a visionary dimension represented by Juno in the 11th that revolutionizes old relationship forms. The most important relationship interactions will occur with friends and social associates.

12h- 12th house natives are significant in the karma aspect of relationships. Often, the Partnerships one magnetizes has a Destin quality to them. There may seem to be no visible reason for the union, but underlying the surface is an emotional power that one can not deny. The visible relationship is only the tip of an iceberg whose antecendent causes go back into past lifetimes. Yet, it is these unconscious aspects that surface and dominate the relationship interplay. Sometimes, the partner may be disabled or ill, so that one needs to selflessly serve and make amends to them. In other cases, the partner may be a victim, and one must learn to release them and let them evolve into their own. Juno in the 12th house individuals may experience loss, denial, or death of their partner. On a spiritual level, partnership is connected to a desire to merge with the infinite. Where mysticism, dreams, ideals, and yearnings are shared, this placement can signify an ecstatic union.

'The ancients' considered the zodiac to be the 'Soul of Nature'. Understanding the zodiacal energy patterns, but also the archetypal energy can help us understand ourselves and our consciousness better. Every modality and sign represents their own energy pattern that we vibe.

●Cardinal signs, are a centrifugal (spinning energy like a blood centrifuge machine)radiating outward energy that moves in a definite direction ↔️(future- present- past);

》Aries & Libra(positive/masculine) are concerned with action in the present and thinking forward & moving towards the future. Aries 'spiritedly' moves directly forward. Libra 'mentally' moves directly forward.

》Capricorn & Cancer (negative/feminine) radiate that same centrifugal energy spinning or radiating the energy inwards and towards the past. Capricorn 'physically' moves with direct attention to the past. Cancer 'emotionally' moves directly with attention to the past.

●Fixed signs, they represent a centripetal energy that radiates inwards towards a center, it's associated with principles of inertia which is also known to give them great powers of concentration & perseverance. The fixed signs are energetically most centered on the here & now. People with the Sun in a fixed sign are literally born with such an intuitive sense of depth and power of the soul or spirit within them, they actually dubbed the fixed signs as "the gates of the avatar" & are the key symbols of the major initiations of the soul. This concentrated energy also brings the fixed signs a potential for concentrated consciousness!》Taurus, Scorpio(negative- feminine) more connected with the past, Taurus 'physically' spirals into itself and down. Scorpio 'emotionally' spirals into itself and down. 》Aquarius, Leo,(positive- masculine) more connected to the future. Aquarius 'mentally' spirals into itself and up. Leo 'spiritedly' spirals into itself and up.

●Mutable Signs, their energy is spiralic patterns. 》Pisces connects to past karmic energy & Virgo spiral towards the ground and are associated with the past crises with development of the personality. Virgo physically spirals outward and down. Pisces 'emotionally' spirals out and down. 》 Gemini & Sagittarius spirals upwards and forward toward the future, with Sagittarius having an increase with prophetic tendencies and Gemini with their endless future speculations. Gemini 'mentally' - Sagittarius 'spiritedly'

So learning how the patterns of the energies of the signs work, it can help you learn more about yourself and how your energy is working for you. Especially your Sun! But the moon, rising, Mercury, Venus and Mars signs(Personal planets and angles too) can help you learn why your always stuck in the past or full of anxiety about the future. Or how you can manipulate energy to better yourself mentally and physically.

Say you have a Cancer Moon in the 9h you're going to have that connection to the past but with prophetic tendencies so pay attention to your dreams! Or maybe you have a Taurus Sun in the 8h you will have access to not only an earthly, physical inner power, but one connected to emotion and the past. Mercury in an air sign but water house, think of the communication you can make with other realms! The combinations are endless. Learn how your main energies work and maybe learn how to control your consciousness, just think of the possibilities!

"People tend to be afraid of Pluto transits, and they have the right to be, for we are dealing here with the god of death, whose domain is the dark and shadowy underworld. Transitting Pluto often brings us painfully into contact with death. In some cases this can mean a literal death - our own or that of someone close to us - but more usually these transits correspond to psychological deaths or 'ego-deaths': the death of a part of us, the death of ourselves as we know ourselves."

The Basic Meaning of Planets Square the Lunar Nodes

these are like generic versions you really need the entire chart, but a jump off point for you to start with. I am currently working on getting the material up for you on the trauma that would come along with placements, But take these as if you are reading a placement of a planet in a certain house or sign. Much more information needs to be accounted for to get you a true reading, but this is a good start point.

Sun:

The Sun square node can indicates that the main part of the chart holder's current life energy and purpose (the Sun) is to resolve their issues symbolized by the square to the nodal axis, through house and sign and through the node it resolves through. This placement indicates the current life of the chart holder as the critical one for the resolution of unresolved material. This unresolved material is experienced in this life as part of the core nature of the individuality and sense of personal meaning. This placement has echoes of the symbolism of the hero’s journey and can involve the individual having to create or maintain a personal vision in isolation or in conflict with others around them in their life. As such it represents a challenge to identify as an individual.

The Moon:

When the Moon squares the nodes we can anticipate unresolved issues within the family of origin, with the formation of the personality and with the emotional body. There may be specific unresolved material involving the mother or primary caregiver. There will be an fundamental insecurity in the personality or a tendency to project the experience of security or happiness outside the self onto the family, or significant others. This placement may indicate unresolved gender issues. There may be dissatisfaction with gender roles, with issues stemming from the bias of our culture and the resulting suppression of the feminine. Or there may be a recent gender switch between this incarnation and the previous one, resulting in a strong identification with the opposite gender.

Mercury:

When Mercury squares the nodes we are alerted to the possibility of unresolved issues in the mental life of the individual. This can include overly rigid thinking or excessively restless curiosity that lacks discrimination as to the kind of material the mind is taking on board. This placement may represent an issue with internalized messages or introjects of a critical nature that undermine the strength of the personality. Such internalized guilt, emphasized in the 6th house/Virgo archetype, can become the basis for internal shame and/or a masochistic tendency. This placement may indicate a range of communication issues – for example an issue with trusting the opinions of others. Lies or conflicting views as to the nature of the truth may have had profound consequences in prior lives.

Venus:

When Venus squares the nodes we are looking at unresolved material pertaining to how a person relates to themselves and therefore the way they relate to others. The range of possibilities can extend from extremes of isolation to excessive social activity that leads to a loss of identity through exhaustion. This placement can indicate an issue with projected meaning, or not seeing the true reality of others due to our transference onto them. We might transfer unresolved issues onto our partners and friends, co-opting them to play roles in our own inner drama. This placement can also refer to a life-threatening situation whereby the self has become highly anxious, causing great difficulty in relating to its own needs. It can indicate a situation whereby the person needs to learn to be alone, to love and accept themself before being able to meet others on an equal footing.

Mars:

When Mars squares the nodes the nature of the unresolved material pertains to the nature of desire and the instinctual will. The range of possibilities here includes unresolved anger, unresolved sexual feelings and physical or sexual violence. Anger with or from others could be threatening to stability just as hidden anger could also be at play, its passive toxicity being part of the problem. This placement can signify situations whereby the will has become co-opted in some fashion and the person is overly compliant or feel lost. We could also see a situation in which excessive dominance has distorted the soul’s original intention. This placement can indicate an unmet need for independence which can then be a source of suppressed anger. But the unmet need can also express as a source of paradox in relationship, whereby the freedom to grow with another is desired but a subconscious fear of entrapment prevents this need being fulfilled meaningfully.

Jupiter:

When Jupiter squares the nodes the nature of the unresolved material relates to the person’s beliefs, the teachers or teachings that they have followed and their relationship to faith. This skipped step can indicate an issue with honesty, either through a conflict of how the their truth has been perceived, or through an inner lie – the nature of the inner lie often stemming from internal exaggeration at the expense of the true picture of the nature of the self. This untruth can become the basis for a crisis of self or, if exposed publicly, can also change the level of trust someone has placed on you, thereby changing the belief system they have about you. This placement can signify a crisis of faith or a conflict within the self about an understanding of the truth, or an issue with a teaching they have followed. This crisis of faith becomes a fundamental doubt in the capacity of the person to understand their place in the greater scheme of things. This can therefore indicate an issue with alienation.

Saturn:

When Saturn squares the nodes the nature of the unresolved material relates to the conditioning that the individual has been exposed to, either through the family, society, religion or by any broader historical societal theme. Such conditioning then becomes the basis for repression. The Saturn skipped step can indicate a need for taking responsibility for one’s own life at a core level without succumbing to the temptations of blame, excessive fear, or self-control. This placement can indicate an issue of genuine guilt, an authentic sense of having done something wrong (the nature of which will be indicated by the house/sign/aspects). In contrast to the internalized guilt found in the Mercury/Virgo/6th house archetype, which is internalized from others blaming or criticizing, the Saturn archetype involves the self recognizing past mistakes and making direct reparation for those mistakes.

*This placement emphasizes the importance of the Saturn Return 1 and/or 2.

*Uranus:

When Uranus squares the nodes the unresolved material indicates a need for liberation from conditioning, and liberation from the past. This stems in part from a past wound or trauma and from exposure to excessive influences. With this placement, the nodal axis can be understood as a trauma signature indicating that the unresolved trauma is a critical part of the skipped step. An analysis of the house and sign, aspects to the skipped step planet, and aspects to the nodal axis will help identify the nature of this unresolved trauma. This placement also symbolizes a crisis in the uniqueness of the individual. The person has started to detach themselves from prior conditioning but they have either not been able to maintain this process or they remain blind to a critical aspect of how the conditioning imprisons them, which then results in a block to the truest expression of their individuality. This placement can indicate a specific fear or post-traumatic stress that blocks access to the true self. It can also mark the need to reintegrate some former illumination that has been lost or resisted. There is a powerful requirement to embrace the transformational nature of the self. Regression work or deep therapy can help in recovering deeper unconscious material – both traumas and gifts. *This placement emphasizes the importance of the Uranus opposition.

*Pluto:

When Pluto squares the nodes the unresolved material relates to the deepest unconscious self; its motivations, compulsions, resistances and its urge for transformation. In some ways this is the ultimate skipped step. Pluto square the nodal axis can be like a battle between the adaptive self and the higher self, between ego and soul. This placement represents a fundamental encounter with deeper unconscious forces, either to summon radical transformation or to become trapped in psychological attachments and compulsions. Or even a combination of both. A critical divide in the deeper self needs exploration and resolution yet this placement indicates the potential (as all skipped steps do in some way) for tremendous resistance to the evolutionary goal. This placement suggests that a struggle between power and powerlessness has been playing out over lifetimes. There exists a need to identify limitations in order to transform them as well as a need to form powerful relationships with other people, objects or teachings that are symbolic of the intended transformation in the self. In this way you may learn by absorbing the energy of others. This skipped step may indicate a variety of power dynamics ranging from pronounced psychological disturbance to issues regarding the appropriate use of power and an inquiry into its source of origin. There may be issues of personal betrayal on every level. Betrayal of the self and of others, AND being betrayed by others. Or there may exist a need to confront limitations, both of self and others. This skipped step demonstrates a critical juncture in the evolution of the soul involving a profound choice as to what to commit to in order to effect transformation. Furthermore it implies the necessary commitment has been intermittent or lacking in the past, emphasizing a need to honor the commitments made now in order to resolve this prior inconsistency.

*Neptune:

When Neptune is square the nodes the unresolved material pertains to the subtle issues of one’s sense of ultimate meaning, one’s dreams and ideals. The skipped step can therefore revolve around the loss of meaning, profound disillusionment or despair that leads to loss of life force and will. In some cases the negative ramifications are so extreme as to lead to catatonic disassociation. The Neptune skipped step may also represent an unresolved dream or ideal that the person has suppressed or been unable as yet to fulfill, that now demands exploration. Analysis of the Evolutionary Axis will illustrate the nature of these unfulfilled dreams and aspirations. Exploration of such themes can involve distinguishing whether or not such dreams need to be physically realized or can exist solely as fantasies fulfilled in the imagination. The necessary discrimination required here is difficult to attain because this skipped step involves a struggle to clarify the difference between fantasy and reality. This placement can lead to a spiritual crisis and transformation. Just as easily this placement points to someone who has lost their spiritual way, who now wanders meaninglessly in cycles of despair, and perhaps is compensating for the loss with drug addiction or other similarly self-sabotaging behaviors. In rare cases this skipped step could indicate someone who has been exposed to a psychic attack of some kind, someone who has been possessed by unconscious or astral forces. But because of the possibility for fantasy and delusion reflected by this placement, this can be an especially problematic to work with.

* These are the more difficult of the squared planets to the nodes

Pluto’s polarity point symbolizes the evolutionary intentions for our current life. Pluto correlates with our limitations, stagnation, and weakness that we all have within us. Pluto’s polarity point describes our path to change and the areas that we must embrace in order to purge old patterns of behavior that inhibit further growth. There will be an ongoing transformation of the areas symbolized by Pluto’s natal position that's relative to its polarity point throughout our life. The natal position of Pluto will transmute to higher levels of expression.

Trinity of the past= Pluto, our South Node, & its ruling planet.

Trinity of the Future= Pluto's polarity point, our North Node, and its planetary ruler.

The planetary rulers of the Nodes symbolize archetypes of those rulers within our consciousness, and they are emphasized thru our soul.

Triggering of Natal Aspects by Outer Planets

Any outer planet that transits a natal planet will activate any aspects in the natal chart to that planet. For example; you have Pluto about to conjunct your natal sun, whatever aspects you have in your natal chart from your Sun. Say you have Sun Square Mars and opposition Saturn, that Pluto Sun conjunction is going to activate that square and opposition.

Also when an outer planet crosses a midline planet in your chart; example the Sun is in between Mercury and Venus in your chart, if Mercury and Venus have any squares or oppositions those hard aspects to it are also going to be activated. This could even happen if there is no midline planet. Such as the outer planet meeting the midline of your Mercury and Venus, the aspects could be stimulated.

Outer planets can trigger and stimulate any aspects, typically the hard aspects. This also goes for transit progressions, too.

Personal Uranus Transits

On a personal level, Uranus transits are associated with change and disruption. It's a phase of our lives when something new and eccentric needs to break thru our conscious awareness. It is a time for us to be curious and experiment. When new things arise, that should and can be tried, even if there are risks that need to be taken, that's what Uranus is calling for.

Whether we consciously choose to make these changes or if they're forced by external events, it's due to Uranus and his intent of putting us in touch with the unexplored parts of our nature. Uranus tells us when it's time to break out of old patterns that are limiting us. Some parts of us prefer to keep things the way they are while another part of us wants growth. If we try to repress those changes being called for by a Uranus transit, we'll develop a bitterness and resentment inside of us. That kind of resentment being held within causes psychological and physical health problems.

If a Uranus transit is felt as depression, sickness, or fatigue, these are signs that energy and expression are being blocked within you. And if that's the case, then change is warranted and called for.

Mythology Series #1

Persephone (asteroid 399)

The goddess of spring and queen of the underworld, AKA Kora, was the daughter of Ceres(Demeter) and Zeus (Jupiter). Throughout the story, I will keep it as Ceres and Zeus.

Even though Persephone isn't part of the planets and is only a minor asteroid, her mythology and archetype is a story to know. In my opinion, I see her connected to the Taurus Scorpio access. She's also part of the triple moon symbol as the waxing crescent representing the maiden. Her mother Ceres is represented by the full moon, the mother, and Hecate, the waning crescent as the crone. If you're into rituals or getting into them and looking for a goddess to work with, Persephone is one to consider. I work with her and feel very connected to her through my natal chart placements.

So there are quite a few different stories about how the goddess of spring also became the queen of the underworld, I will tell it the way I know and how I feel it fits best with her in my mind.

So The Story Goes Like This. One beautiful day Persephone was out picking flowers when she was kidnapped by Hades (Pluto) and brought down to the underworld. (She would have been kidnapped by Hermes which is Mercury as no god was able to cross to the underworld or back, in another series we'll talk about Mercury as he was messenger of the gods since he was not a god himself he was able to go to the underworld and back.) Ceres was so distraught trying to find her daughter as she was extremely close with her. She begged Zeus to send Hermes to go fetch their daughter. What Ceres didn't know was that Zeus promised Persephone to his brother Hades so they would be married. Persephone was not happy. She longed to go back home with her mother. Ceres being so angry, she used her power and made it so that there was no harvest for the mortals. Zeus freaked out! He loved being worshiped by the mortals, and with no harvest, the mortals got pissed and vowed to stop worshiping him. So he talked to Hades and asked him to send his daughter back home. During this time, Pluto/Hades had been trying to get Persephone to submit to him by beating her and raping her, but she refused to be his queen. He had even promised that all the gods would worship her, but she was not interested. She just longed to go back home. Zeus asked Hades to please send her back, and he agreed since she wouldn't submit to him as the story goes. But he's sneaky, before letting Persephone leave, he asked her to at least eat something. So she ate six pomegranate seeds and then let Hermes take Persephone back to her parents. Ceres was so thrilled, she used her powers to bring back the harvest. She then thought that it was too easy to get her back and asked Persephone, "Did you eat anything before you left the underworld?" Persephone told her mother about the pomegranate seeds. Again, her mother became enraged as these seeds made Persephone connected to the underworld. So Persephone would have to go back in order to stay alive. She would be allowed back to Earth for springtime, but would have to return to the underworld again. When Persephone would have to leave and the harvest ended (Autumn Equinox, Mabon), and when she came back, so did the foliage and grains (spring equinox, Ostara). Eventually, Persephone made the best of her situation even though her mother was not happy. Ceres refused to change things to the way it was.

Persephone stepped into both roles; the goddess of spring and queen of the underworld.

This story shows how to integrate both the light and the dark. It shows great strength and inner power. It shows how you can transform yourself with a change of perception and willpower.

Now I equate Persephone to the Taurus-Scorpio axis because we have spring in Taurus season, the foliage and flowers are all in bloom (and even thousands of years ago spring equinox was actually during Taurus season). When Persephone goes back to the underworld that starts the Autumn Equinox, but remember Libra was once part of the Scorpio constellation, and that's when we have the equinox. Also, Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and is the sign and energy of transformation. As I mentioned earlier, she's also part of the triple moon symbol (below), being the waxing crescent. So if you work with the moon, you're working with Persephone in a way already.

Like I mentioned, there are many versions to the story, and with mythology, we can change them a bit to fit the times we are in or to fit how we resonate with it.

Finding an archetype or archetypes to connect to can really help any healing process. Also knowing the archetypes of our solar system can help you better understand astrology and your own charts.

I feel I resonate with Persephone through my chart as my Cancer moon is a waxing crescent, Ceres is cazimi to my Taurus Sun 8th House. Persephone/Asteroid 399 is also in wide conjunction to my North Node, they both inconjunct my sun/Ceres and Pluto/Ascendant. During my solar returns, it's spring, and everything is in bloom when the sun conjuncts my Ascendant it's during autumn equinox.

Some items to use for rituals to work with Persephone:

●Offerings - pomegranate seeds, lily's, narcissus(yellow flower similar to daffodils), roses, violets, crocus, iris, jasmine, or larkspur, bones, apples, acorns, bare branches, milk, honey, red wine, or corn. These all depend on the time of year. Also you can use these to decorate your altar with.

○Really, you can use any spring flower as she is the goddess of spring!

●Wearing a floral crown or an iron crown depending on the time of year.

●Wearing pastel colors during the spring and summer; dark colors in the fall and winter.

●Using our wearing garnet. The word "Garnet" is derived from the Latin Granatum and can be associated with pomegranate due to the color.

●Carnelian, ruby, onyx, obsidian, or any red or dark colored crystal. Garnet, obsidian, and onyx are wonderful protection stones, too. The dark stones are symbolic to shadow work, rest, and renewal. The red stones are symbolic of passion, connection, and renewal. Using green colored stones during spring or clear quartz and amethyst for anytime of year.

*There's also a great book about her if you're interested in learning more about her and rituals to work with her. It's called 'Persephone's Pathway' by Jennifer Heather.

The symbol below represents Persephone and is a combination of Ceres and Pluto along with the Cresent moon and 6 dots to represent the 6 pomegranate seeds.
