While the Eclipse and the Uranus station were this past Friday and the exact conjunction of Saturn and Pluto was Sunday, these events reverberate far beyond those moments. This week feels to also be infused by much of what threaded through last week.

That’s also because the week begins with the Sun connecting to both Saturn and Pluto. Later in the week we may find messages carrying innovative tips and/or surprising timing given that Mercury makes a square alignment with shake-it-up Uranus. It may invite us to turn conversations on their side or look at information through a different angle.

One need only to look to the world stage to see some examples of the archetypes streaming through:

* The unfolding upheaval in the Middle East and how it reflects a shift in the geopolitical landscape, something that Saturn/Pluto Conjunctions often usher in.

* The continued grief and destruction stemming from the Australian fires, not the least of which is the claim that 1 billion (!!!) animals perished.

* The impeachment row, the power plays being played out, and the potentiality of the erosion of long-standing democratic principles.

* The summit of the English royal family and the planning underway to figure out a solution that would afford Harry and Megan (the Duke and Duchess of Sussex) a way to abdicate part of their royal responsibilities while financially supporting themselves separate from the monarchy, something that they have called for. With this bucking a long-standing tradition and coming on the heels of surprise announcement of their desires without prior notice to the Queen, Prince Charles, and others, this all fits so well with the current astrology, notably the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction and Uranus station, respectively.  

* The ongoing earthquakes in Puerto Rico, further devastating this territory that was decimated by the hurricane last year, and the continued lack of attention by the U.S. government.

* The possible seismic eruption of the Taal Volcano in the Philippines. 

 * And more.

Consider the breakthroughs you’ve been having and continue to find yourself at the precipice of.  How are you relating to the deconstruct to reconstruct themes that feel ever present? Have you noticed surprising elements occurring in your life? Are you feeling the need to speak up and speak out in ways that were previously not your go-to? These may be some of the invitations that this week brings to us.

P.S. This weekend I hosted an event featuring astrologers Tali Edut and Jessica Lanyadoo speaking about all things astrology, including 2020 visions, relationships, and more. We recorded the talk and I’ll be sharing it with you as soon as it’s ready.
