    Today, we've been experiencing a somewhat rare transit because OOB Mars meets the Galactic Center at 27º ♐️. It's rare because  it only occurs every two years and draws to us quite a movement of ageless cosmic energies. 

    It was an eventful day for me after receiving a call from my elderly mother (90). She had a memory regression that took her to the time when she lived with her (long deceased) mother and brothers. She insisted that she had to go back 'home' to her mother because one of her brothers was getting married. There was a lot more to her story because she was utterly confused by all those memories coming to her mind at once pell mell, but that's enough to illustrate what I want to describe now. 

    I looked at her chart and lo and behold, transiting Mars is sitting on the Galactic Center in her 12th house of the past and where everything merges with everything in the timeless unconscious memory. Mars transiting the 12th house can arouse subconscious psychological issues connected to people in the spiritual world, precisely the dead. To confirm, I also checked my and my sister's charts and we both have Mars transiting in hard aspects to the mother significators, the Moon and the ruler of the fourth house. 

    My mother said "my mother told me that all the problems were resolved, that I could go back home now". I reassured her that her mother cared for her even from Heaven. She responded, "maybe I will die soon". We recently celebrated her 90s, and even though in fairly good health, her body is decaying as she ages. 

 
    The Galactic Center is the pivot around which the Solar system orbits, taking ~240 million years to complete the loop. Scientists, astrophysicists, and astronomers have now concluded that its attractive power comes from the Black Hole at the center, where everything ends and everything begins. 

    The Galactic Center is thus the Infinite Creative Power, the generator of our cosmic neighborhood.
At the same time is the source of eternal electromagnetic power that sustains everything in order and harmony. It radiates an amount of energy impossible for a human being to conceive, or imagine. Yet, human beings receive from it, the life and the genetic information, the electrical current and power to sustain this smart machine that a human entity is. 

    It most probably contains infinity of cosmic memories and 'lifes". From it, we receive downloads from the past into our consciousness. If you pay close attention to subtle energies, you can pick up and identify those pieces of ‘galactic information’. Philip Sedgwick describes it this way:

“The resulting energy squeeze emits a wide array of powerful radiation, most notably infrared (IFR) in this instance. This Infrared energy pressures the subconscious mind, providing the release of learned behavior and memories, both negative and positive, all in the interest of moving forward.

The energetic crowding process pushes out mentally/emotionally stored data to clear space for new information to enter both the conscious and subconscious minds. Often the information released does not follow a sequential pattern. Holes are left in one's data field. Access time to known information and stored memory increases. So periodically, it becomes time to rearrange life’s data and re-pack it.”

 
    The process can be compared to a computer upgrade, where files are downloaded and stored in order to improve functionality. 

    As it travels around the Galaxy, the Solar System passes through cosmic fields where it has never been before… well at least not in 240 million years! Thank goodness we receive those upgrades to help us go through new and completely unknown energy fields charged with unknown matter and phenomena.
    

    So, this week, pay attention, tune in to the “Generator”, you may learn things that you’ve never even dreamt about.

Mercury Cazimi - January 23, 2022

 Mercury Inferior Conjunction 

Apollo and Mercury, Noel Coypel, French 1628-1707

    Often times, Mercury retrograde is the necessary journey back over certain tricks your mind plays, right? You did something because you were convinced of certain idea, then some time later, you have to rethink the issue due to an adverse outcome or different results from what you have planned. At a certain point you end up discovering what was your error, and look for the way to resolve it. 

    Well, I thought that process is perfectly reflected in Mercury retrograde motion and his meeting with the Sun (Apollo). Curiously enough, I also found a parallel with Mercury's Myth. As you probably remember, the Roman Mercury God was the equivalent to the Greek God Hermes, and Apollo was his half-brother. Let's go back in time to remember the story.

'Hermes was known to be a cunning trickster, stealing things from the other gods and hiding them in incredible places!

Back when Hermes was just a toddler, he once left his cradle and set out on an adventurous journey to Pieria, in Northern Greece. His goal was to steal the cattle of his half-brother Apollo.

Hermes very soon discovered the herd. One by one he began to pull the hooves from the cows' feet and reattach them in reverse order. He did the same with his own sandals. Then he took the herd, which now seemed to be going backwards, and hid them in a cave. Finally he returned to his cave in Mount Cyllene in Arcadia.

Apollo soon discovered that his flock was missing and began to search the surrounding area. The tracks he saw along the way were only confusing and caused the god to despair.

Of course, Apollo was the god of prophecy, so he soon found out about the thief and furiously went to Mount Cyllene find Hermes in his cave. Little Hermes was sleeping peacefully in his cradle, but Apollo didn't care - he grabbed the infant and took him to Mount Olympus, to be judged by their master Zeus, the king of the gods.

In front of Zeus, Hermes initially denied everything, but in the end he had to confess. Zeus found the story quite amusing, so he did not punish Hermes, but only required him to return the flock. Hermes regretted what he had done and offered Apollo his lyre as a gift. The lyre was a musical instrument that Hermes had created all by himself from the shell of a turtle.

To repay Hermes for his kindness, Apollo returned the gesture by giving Hermes a golden staff to guide the flocks. From that moment on, peace reigned once again at Mount Olympus and a strong friendship began between Hermes and Apollo." (Thanks to Greek-Gods.info for the text; bold added by me)

The story can be read at different levels. It is just a story, but it is also a metaphor for our mind. Follow the bold words comparing them to the way your thinking works, and see a great parable about your trickster mind. Remember that the Sun is your core essence, the inner light that can shine over and 'find out' any mind 'tricks', be it error, misconception, misunderstanding, or ruse.

Sun in Aquarius - January 19, 2022

Attune Your Spiritual Antennae

From the Stella the Siren Youtube video Underwater Dance

    When the Sun ingress Aquarius, forms a septile to Neptune in Pisces. Septiles are the division of the zodiac by seven, resulting in angles of 51º26' each. John Addey wrote that septiles relate "with sacred matters, with one's creations and creativity, and with inspiration and one's receptivity thereto. To this, we may add that is is evidently connected with the unitive and mystical aspect of things...". Septiles are indicators of the person's access to higher consciousness and possible awakening or easy grasping of spiritual realities. They also give the native the sense of being one with everything.

    If you were born under the Sign of Aquarius, either by Ascendant, Moon or Sun more especially, but even if you are not, make sure you take advantage of this opportunity to tune in to the higher realms through meditation, retreat or your own personal spiritual practice. 

    The Sign of Pisces, the utmost spiritual sign of the zodiac, is now giving us a treat with both, the traditional and modern rulers transiting there together. The Sun ingress in Aquarius could just be the prelude to the awaited special event of Jupiter Neptune conjunction on April 12, 2022. Prepare yourself, because this is a one of a kind, once in a lifetime event that hasn't happened since 1856. It could mean an exquisite out of this world experience, but if you're not prepared, it may be confusing at least, or extremely disturbing at worst.
