The Planets are Playing with Our Heads Again

Written by  Anita Burns

Editor's Thoughts

Lot's happening in the world arena, both secular and spiritual. Astrology has never been so interesting (to me). On Tuesday, July 3, the Full Moon in Capricorn  opposes the Sun in Cancer. This speaks to balance between home and public life. Celestial oppositions of Sun and Moon can affect our personal lives and the political climate worldwide. 

Cancer wants us to be homebodies and pay attention to our immediate family. Capricorn is about more wide-spread responsibilities and influences our career, sense of duty, and public life. 

If you are a Cancer or Capricorn, or have these signs strongly indicated in your chart, you might be having a tug of war between what you want and what you think you "should" do. You might want to stay home but are forced into a career or public life that takes you away from home. It could be just the opposite. You might be pursuing a public life or career and be forced to pay more attention to what's happening at home. 

Oppositions always demand a compromise. We must find a way to do both without completely sacrificing one or the other. This can play out on the personal or global scale. 

The United States, that resonates to both Cancer and Capricorn pretty strongly is struggling with issues at home and the need to be an influence in the world. This won't be resolved anytime soon, but it is a comfort to know that if astrology has anything to say about it, eventually, a middle ground will be struck to solve many of our problems. 

The slow-moving planets are the ones to look at for deep cycles in our life and for global issues. Right now:

Jupiter is in Gemini and will help in communication that has far-reaching effects. It will trigger desires to do the right thing for the greater good. 

Saturn is in Libra is about responsibility in relationships and partnerships. We will be urged to fairness and make decisions that have to do with equality and responsibility.

Uranus is in Aries which will prompt a sudden change in anyone or any group that has been clinging to outmoded values of the past. This is about freedom, independence and breaking out of restrictions from the past.

Neptune is in Pisces and spirituality, creativity, and imagination play a big part in the decisions made. Art will be in the forefront, as will spirituality. But, Neptune is a double-edged sword. It can also trigger illusion, hallucination, escapism through denial, fear, or substance abuse. Neptune energy has to be handled with care, especially when it is expressing through its native sign of Pisces.

Pluto is in Capricorn and this is about power, status, and the political arena. It is about determination, and moving through obstacles. Pluto is also about revolution and BIG change in the world. It starts out quietly then grows to huge proportions. Pluto moves very slowly and has a lot of time to work it's "magic." Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 and will be there until 2023. 

This is the period of transformation both on a deeply personal level and on a global level as it shakes up the middle-east with the "Arab spring," creates changes in world leadership, politics, finance, laws, and more. It's not a coincidence that global financial collapse happened during Pluto in Capricorn. It was time to let the old crumble to rebuild the new. Although many mistakes have been made, I am confident that eventually, there will be positive changes to lead us into a better future.

As they say in India, "Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end."
