This week's significant astrology transits:
What's the gist?
This week there is a focus on Mercury, God of mind and communication, Venus, God of love and relationships, and Uranus, God of freedom, breakthroughs and awakening who was activated last week by trines from both Mercury and Mars. On top of changes stimulated by Uranus, we have the first New Moon in Aquarius with Pluto co present. This marks the beginning of Pluto's journey through Aquarius over the next twenty years. History is in the making!
Mercury Conjunct Pluto: 'Deep Insights'
Pluto conjunctions dig deep. Pluto brings up our shadow. Whether through experiences or what's on our mind, there is always something being brought into the light whenever Pluto is involved. This is the first time Mercury will meet Pluto in Aquarius so this is a significant transit that will set the stage for Pluto's journey through Aquarius over the next 20 years. This conversation will make a mark. Mercury and Pluto bring deep insights into emotional causes and motivations, a probing mind and a relentless curiosity. We can expect deep revelations, secrets revealed, and intense and revealing communication.
Venus Trine Uranus: 'A sudden change of heart'
This is a supportive and expansive aspect that follows on from Venus' conversation with Jupiter last week which activated the heart with universal truth. Venus and Uranus bring relationship breakthroughs, a rebirth of love and friendship, sudden romance and the magic of love. Expect chance encounters, spontaneous fun, magic moments and electric love. This is happening during the dark Moon and Venus will be with The Moon as this conversation is exact. This means that what's activated may not come to light immediately. You may need to trust your intuition and remember that signs and synchronicities are The Universe reminding you you're on the right track.
New Moon in Aquarius: 'Fresh Start'
New Moon's are a reset point, a new cycle begins. This is the first New Moon in Aquarius with Pluto in situ which means it's also kicking off the new Pluto cycle. This is a significant new beginning. New Moon's are the perfect times to get clear on what you want to create and work on this month and to set your intentions. Read more on harnessing the Moon's energy to set intentions here. Use the Mercury Pluto energy to set honest intentions that are true to yourself and what you really desire. Aquarius is all about the ideal future for humanity - do your intentions support how you want to be in future and the sort of world you want to live in? You can make a difference for yourself and the collective so get deep into the truth of your heart and choose wisely.
Mercury Square Jupiter: 'To believe, or not believe'
This is a tense aspect. Happening in the midst of the Venus Uranus conversation and with the futuristic and ideal Aquarius New Moon, this conversation may mark a moment of tussle between the head and the heart, or belief and disbelief. Mercury and Jupiter can bring conflict between closed mindedness and expansion. Expect miscommunication and look out for the mind to run away with itself. Truth may be difficult to grasp or find and secrets may be exposed.
What does this mean for the Twin Flame Journey?
The Twin Flame journey happens across many dimensions. Physical and material shifts in the 3D occur after metaphysical and energetic shifts. The mind and belief system has to shift before the 3D manifestation can occur. If you're not seeing the changes you're hoping for or expecting in the 3D then it's time to look within and do the self work. As you change within, your 3D reality will change.
This week:
The beginning of the week could feel quite heavy and dark with difficult experiences and thoughts arising that could make the happy future you envision with your twin feel quite unlikely. Things could feel quite hopeless. Whatever is coming up in you, know it is arising for good reason. We cannot be reborn without having first died and this is a common scenario on The Twin Flame Journey. It is a journey of metamorphosis. It is designed to transform us and your journey is designed to transform you. I've written more on what I believe about the purpose of the journey here if you're interested. If you are struggling you might like to read my advice for Clearing the Heart.
We are supported this week to actively work on building the structures within us to grow our spiritual awareness and keep our eyes on the bigger picture. So while things may feel difficult in the 3D remember you have access to unconditional love and support at all times and you are empowered to tap into that and access a higher truth.
Things should lighten up after the New Moon on the 9th though it will be up to you to feed your mind with thoughts and content that uplift and focus on the magic, rather than be sucked into the drama. Remember, you always have a choice. Focus on the hearts truth and remind yourself that your thoughts are not always your own - we are programmed what to think - you can install a new program whenever you realise the old one is faulty and doing you a disservice. You may want to read my answer to the question, 'How do I work on myself when my twin is all I can think about?' where I talk about this.
Remember: The Universe is always here to support us in our journey. If you are stuck and don't know where to start, know you have a font of inner guidance and wisdom you can tap into to get you unstuck and on your way. Read The answer to every question.
Personal Reflection:
I have learned through my journey that sometimes what I am thinking and feeling in the moment isn't what's necessarily true, but is rather there to facilitate the accompanying feelings. When I have felt the feelings and released the energy (which I believe often relates to past life experiences or collective energies and stories that we all hold within us), then my thoughts around the awful eventuality I was perceiving would be proved untrue or unfounded. In simpler terms: I believe we are encouraged to think a particular way by The Universe in order to purge that storyline from our systems (energetic, physical, spiritual). We have to experience the feelings but we don't necessarily have to create that storyline in our reality. We can let it go without it manifesting fully.
The key to managing this isn't to use the information to bypass the feelings that are arising, but rather to accept the energy and story is coming up for a reason and to hold it gently, as if it were true whilst also holding the perspective that it may be another story I need to clear and remove.
An example of this occurred a couple of years into my journey when my twin and I had reconnected as friends having been separate (no communication) for a period of time. He had met someone in a magical way and was really excited about it - on paper she seemed like his perfect woman, with small details that seemed as if it were meant to be such as she lived in his ideal location and was similar to him in terms of spiritual practices - and his hopes and excitement were clear as he told me about it. Now there's a lot in this story for me - this situation had happened before with previous male friends who I was secretly in love with. I'd listen and pretend to be happy for them whilst secretly dying inside. But by this time into my journey I had learned that my twin would trigger all my wounds to be healed and released and so I got to work looking at all my stories and why I'd ended up there before. I made sure I felt the feelings that were arising with him whilst also reliving those experiences so I could release the feelings all the way to the root. I also got to work in the 3D and set some boundaries for myself. I took myself out of the situation and said I couldn't listen to him talking about someone else. And I carried on doing the work as the feelings arose until I was comfortable with the idea that the relationship I hoped for was no longer on the cards, and as comfortable as I could with the idea that he was with someone else. A few weeks later we were chatting about something else when he said I've got something you might want to hear. He proceeded to tell me that that connection had fizzled out as quickly as it had started.
Would the outcome have been the same had I not done the work I was guided to do? I can't answer that, but I can attest to the fact that as I have done the work to transform, my world has also transformed. This is an example of one story but we are all full of them, and whilst we have buried energy that is creating stories we don't want to have to tell again, our twin will keep bringing them to our attention so we can do the work to get to a position to write ourselves a new one.
This is exactly the kind of thing that a Pluto Mercury conversation can signify. A challenging storyline is arising from deep within where it has been stuck in our shadow (and the collective's shadow). And the only way to really purge those experiences from mind and body is to feel them. Feelings get buried because they are too difficult to face at the time and until they are released we will keep reliving those stories. We attract what we are. As within, so without.
