Planet Waves Daily Oracle for Tuesday, Aug 13, 2019

Today’s Oracle takes us to the Virgo weekly for January 1, 1999.

Were I a VIRGO (August 23-September 22) I could — be suddenly filled with the reality that I want to exist outside of structure and stricture, while experiencing the deep understanding that I personally contain the Universe, that the past is contained in the future, that the future is contained in the past, and that every moment is available at this moment, so therefore, there really is nowhere to go, but if I want to go anywhere, that is perfectly available to me merely by making a decision to do so. 1999 will be the year of discovering my ancestry, and of my becoming the flower of my lineage.

It might seem to you as if various recent storms and shake-ups are essentially the shape of your daily life now. Yet every moment of change or turbulence is offering you an opportunity to review and make alterations where you see fit. Put another way, you could consider these events as a kind of beta test, showing you how far your current routines serve you. This should also highlight any knotty areas, most likely the sources of any dissatisfaction you feel. Focusing your energy there will make the biggest difference.

Written in the Planets

Jupiter has stationed direct, and is now heading for its square to Neptune. This will be an extended study in what is true and what is not; what is real and what is something else. Still, the forward motion of Jupiter is saying take steps toward your goals, and test them out. See what activity you stick to, and what sticks to you. Meanwhile, the tide is rising toward the Aquarius Full Moon. This lunation is shouting the same thing from every angle you may read it: get together with others. Do it somewhere that money does not have to change hands. Check your phone at the door, preferably in a bucket of ice water. Notice who is around you, what they say and how they feel. Notice the same things about yourself.

There will be enormous gains made if everything is looked for in terms of its roots on the emotional level. Health situations, family situations, and anything involving the state of mind is likely to have an emotional connection. That, in turn, is likely to be connected to the environment. Use both logic and intuition. Eliminate chemicals, sugar and television and substitute anything more natural, empathic and nourishing. Remember that any problem that has actually surfaced has roots in the past and may take as long to work out as it did to develop in the first place.

Life may be something of a wild ride at present, though you seem generally grounded and able to weather the various plot twists. Part of mastering this is basically accepting that chaos and novelty are a part of existence. Once you recognize this, the process becomes more of an adventure. You have everything you need within you, and just now you seem to possess a knack for fashioning lasting and valuable gifts from a continually fluctuating world. This is an impressive capability indeed.

Today’s the big day (big, because Jupiter is the planet of expansion! Sorry — couldn’t resist): Jupiter stations direct in Sagittarius today at 9:37 am EDT / 13:37:11 UTC. Do you have a sense of what you’d like to increase in your life, or where you could use a little more momentum?

Jupiter stations direct in a square to Neptune in Pisces, and in a conjunction to a deep-space phenomenon called the Great Attractor. The Jupiter-Neptune square describes your goals and dreams being thrust into the glare of reality. Do they stand up on their own footing, or do they evaporate? You may feel a push to see what’s what, which is really an opportunity to demonstrate the validity of your plans and the solidity of your ideals. The only way to really do that might be to get out there and take a chance on them, though that idea extends beyond just today.

Jupiter conjunct the Great Attractor in this situation may describe the sensation of polarities switching — like if you were a magnet, and the positive and negative ends suddenly reversed. It might not be that dramatic and obvious, but it could be. It’ll be up to you to notice whether you experience anything like that, either in a physical/material way, or in terms of your outlook on your priorities or a particular belief. Keep asking the challenging questions — even if you’re not sure you’ll come to an answer — and see if your ideal destination comes into better focus.

Today’s Oracle takes us to the Pisces weekly for April 1, 2005.

With any luck at all the current days are providing you with one discovery after the next about who you are what you want to be doing and what you have to offer the world. Keep an inventory but please keep track of what you know is most important. Many things that are less important will be able to take care of themselves but those at the very top of the list require your attention and devotion. If you can do this a truly significant breakthrough is on the way. To say the least you are a gifted person and this is your chance to make the most of what you have to offer the world — and offer yourself.

You’re ready to commence a new phase of your personal journey, which is likely to center on bringing a part of yourself more decidedly into the light. Certain arrangements you’ve made are on the verge of being set in motion. Meanwhile, now is a great time for one last systems check; make sure everything is where it needs to be, and wearing its best outfit. This will help soothe any stage fright you may have. Keep your courage high. You’ve worked hard to get here, and you know what you’re doing.

Written in the Planets

Mercury is in late Cancer, preparing to enter Leo tomorrow. It is nearing the end of its post-retrograde ‘shadow’ or ‘echo’ phase. But before it clears that territory, or even clears the sign Cancer, it makes a square today to the asteroid Rhadamanthus in Libra. In myth, Rhadamanthus was a king whom Zeus later made the judge of souls in the underworld.

You might consider today which of your emotional reactions needs to be brought into better integrity — especially regarding anything that came into focus during the retrograde. Another interpretation of this aspect could be a need to bring greater empathy to your judgments, whether of self or others. Have you been judging your feelings, thoughts, or responses — or your expectations of how others might respond to your sensitivities — harshly? We’re all human, and our failings come with the territory. It’s okay to be generous with your empathy; it’s also okay to know when enough is enough.

Meanwhile, Jupiter stations direct in Sagittarius tomorrow. You can read more about that in yesterday’s Written in the Planets or in this article here.

Today’s Oracle takes us to the Virgo monthly for February 1, 2002.

By now, you have figured out that all the events, developments and unusual emotional challenges left their mark on you were there for a reason, which was to get you closer to the entity known as your soul. The soul bears a kind of wound by its nature, what we could call the wound of existence. But religion’s insistence that soul is star of the cosmic show is but a piece of the puzzle. There are a couple of priests I’d like to walk up to and remind that it was through the marriage of Psyche and Eros that the soul was made immortal. What has happened over the years of your life has called you ever deeper toward the depths of yourself, bringing you to a space of consciousness that in its utter fullness is only half-complete. What occurs next will be no less beautiful for its feeling of sudden surprise or unexpected beauty, or the revelation that you are, indeed, a whole person.

Cherish your individuality. If you’re living in a way that’s faithful to yourself, people will notice; they may react strongly. Yet whether they’re charmed, provoked or fascinated makes no difference in reality. What matters is that you continue on your life path regardless. Keep truth as close to you as possible, like a priceless item you could never sell or give away. When committed to this way of doing things, you can find yourself growing, creating and healing almost as a matter of course.

Written in the Planets

The Moon’s conjunction to Jupiter in Sagittarius today is just the latest in personal planets making aspects to it before it stations direct on Sunday. On a social level, this is likely to come through as generosity and easy, lively rapport with others. Mercury in Cancer continues to signify enhanced emotional intelligence in that realm (especially if you’ve been working with any insights from its recent retrograde, and if you’re keeping tabs on your own sensitivities and those of others).

On a more philosophical or metaphysical level, the Moon conjunct Jupiter suggests the inspiration to seek or focus on some of the deeper spiritual insights life offers. How personal can you make them? As in: rather than pondering big ideas in the abstract, what questions can you ask yourself about your sense of purpose; your vision for your life; the lessons you’ve learned and the patterns you’ve perceived that contribute to your worldview and sense of yourself in it?

Or, to put it more simply: when you allow yourself to get very quiet and still inside, where can you feel yourself drawn to expand and emerge and explore? Jupiter is nearing the end of its phase of review in its home sign. When it shifts back to an orientation of forward momentum and external expansion, your notes on these questions could be useful in staying focused on the place where you most desire to aim your arrow. Of course, you may also find that the target itself has shifted. That’s okay — all that matters is that you notice it and respond accordingly.
