#281-"Old Maps No Longer Work"--Week of October 7, 2024

Two planets symbolically change directions this week supporting you to pause, re-assess and redefine the directions you want to take. Jupiter (Expanded One) turns retrograde in Gemini for a 4-month cycle of slowing the roll on too much scattered energy and projects. Take a time-out and redefine your beliefs and patterns of excessive over-engagement with life. Pluto (Transformer) moves forward in Capricorn after 5 months of being retrograde. Until November 19th, Pluto is finishing its journey in Capricorn that began in 2008. Final call for awareness and acknowledgement regarding lessons learned about the consequences of disempowering fear-based control as well as the power of truth-telling and personal agency. Mars (Action-Taker) in Cancer squares Chiron (Wounded Healer) in Aries ushering in a 5-month journey of healing wounds around being honest with your emotional needs and longing to belong. Address unconscious patterns of with passive-aggressive armoring due to fear of vulnerability.
