Astrologically Speaking in Current Events

I have to be honest that I am committed to my old fucked up ways.

I have plenty of opportunities to create positive changes for myself but I find myself caught in a positive feedback loop—my classic avoidance and procrastination. I feel like I am being pulled into multiple directions with my feet planted deep into the ground. Planted deep into a comfort zone where nothing ever grows.

I’m taking my astrological transits seriously for the first time in my life. Mostly because I actually understand them enough. I think of the birth chart as a skill tree. It shows us what our settings are and what areas we need to focus on for growth. The real NPCs ignore their birth charts and don’t care about them. We are all astrologers even if we have forgotten who we are. Across history and culture, it was the universal language and system that we were all united under. Before we were re-legioned and indoctrinated to spiritualize our own prison. The NPCs are trying to expand into things that do not exist in reality and that is why mankind is left with an aching void. Expansion is an inside job. We are trying to expand into bank accounts, mortgage payments, careers, politics, religions, pseudo-identities, etc. Those come from Saturn whom we are worshipping but our minds are too blind to see it. This way of life is unnatural. There is no nature in it. It’s godless in that respect. Even if don’t want to believe that astrology is real, these current transits have great energy we can conjure up.

Jupiter, the planet of abundance and expansion, entered Taurus yesterday. We have a new moon in two days as well. This is when Taurus and the other fixed signs, Leo, Scorpio & Aquarius, want to plant seeds of change. Jupiter will help us expand into our choices so we have to make them good ones. Saturn retrogrades back into Aquarius in October where our choices will be tested before it goes back into Pisces. Saturn creates balance by restricting the other planets. It is about balance, discipline, karma, and boundaries. It is the harshest ruler and it rules Capricorn and Aquarius. We are all solar powered and Capricorn has the longest nights and so it is more influenced by its ruling planet than the sun which makes it unique to any other sign. The devil is depicted with goat horns because Saturn rules through Capricorn. Check on your Pisces friends. The dreamers. Their delusional toxic positivity is being crushed by the weight of Saturn right now. Jupiter rules Pisces and usually protects them from Saturn but not these days.

I have a theory about Capricorn. Due to having the longest nights, Capricorn has learned to be resourceful. He has to be sharp. He draws from all the other signs. I can see it. Capricorn is good with his hands like a Gemini and has the brain power of Virgo. He has the sexual power of Scorpio, the commanding ego of Leo, the skills to create success like Taurus, the starting power of Aires, etc. Capricorn is a big copycat. That’s my theory.

We are in a restless ocean of planetary magnetism and we will be nudged into creating change, conscious of it or not. Doesn’t hurt to be mindful.

I’m a Taurus rising and horoscopes are for the rising signs. This is why annoying astrologer wannabes like myself always ask for the time one was born. It unlocks the horoscopes. The rising sign is the sign that was rising in the east at the time you were born. It is what we are ascending into. Though I have a Capricorn sun, Taurus was rising in the east and that puts it in the 1st house. The 1st house is the I Am. The rising sign is what you present to the world. First impressions, face, style. Taurus is ruled by Venus, who gives Taurus beautiful faces and hot bodies that can last forever. She was mad at me that day. Venus gives Libra, who she also rules, a flirty personality and an even hotter body.

I have an Aquarius Jupiter which is in the 10th house. The 10th house is home to Capricorn and it is about career, status & reputation. Pluto entered Aquarius earlier in the year and that happened in the 10th house for all Taurus risings. That’s about massive shifts and transformations. Everybody wants to be a Taurus rising right now. Taurus is the main character in 2023. This is a massive opportunity for growth and change. However, I seem to be psyching myself out.

I have until June 1st, essentially, to branch out and plant those seeds for change. To take a leap of faith. My issue as a Taurus rising is that I cannot let things go. I need to let go and let god. It doesn’t help that my chart is heavy with Scorpio and 8th house placements, let alone it being my shadow self as the opposite sign of Taurus with Saturn all up in it. The 8th house is home to Scorpio. The house of death, debt, the psyche. This is a powerful area to have planets in, Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune. My 8th house is in Sagittarius. Nothing about me seems conventional. My chart is just dark and full of terrors.

Jupiter is going to be squaring Mars, Pluto and the South Node so this feeling of being pulled into multiple directions is on point. My Mars, Pluto and South Node are all in the 6th house. The 6th house is home to Virgo and it is about health, illness, wellness, and routines. This is a house of misfortune. Natives of this house struggle with mental and physical health but one can become a powerful healer if one works on this area in their life which I have. Healing others is my calling. So this area of my life is going to need a lot of focus as well. Career and health. Those are interconnected for me.

I have a Gemini Chiron and Lillith. My Chiron is in the first house. This is where my social anxiety comes from but I push through it. Though, I’m not palatable. My chart has the least liked zodiac sign energies. Capricorn, Scorpio, Virgo, & Gemini. I like to think that my Taurus rising is my redeemer. Taurus is the best sign. Taurus people feel like home. Even though Taurus has negative aspects like the rest of them, Taurus is meant to shine. It’s really sad when they don’t and let themselves go. Capricorn and Virgo, on the surface, are practically twins. They’re known for strong work ethics, being critical, overbearing and judgemental. Scorpio is ruled by Mars, the planet of action and conflict. It’s dark and wicked. It has the most intense energies but they keep it under the surface. They can be dangerous because they know how to cut deep. They know how to destroy. Gemini is big-brain energy and is abrasive about it. My chart demands a lot of information. Gemini Chiron, Capricorn Mercury, Aquarius Jupiter.

I’m rambling.

I have 99 problems and financial security will fix all of them. This is the area where I need opportunity the most. Desperately. It’s been nothing but a struggle for years now. As is my astrological curse. I have been applying to advance in my current place of employment to no avail. I have been applying elsewhere with no calls. It’s as though all signs are telling me to create my own opportunities. I know which sphere of influence is calling to me and I have been dragging that out.

I feel like I am trying to recover, spiritually. My delusion was broken recently. Taurus risings will practically be spiritual gurus by the time this year is done if we stay in our purpose.

I feel as though I am being called to bring astrotheology down to earth. The age of Pisces is over. This new-age spirituality is cancelled. In this turning of the age, it is the true esoteric knowledge that returns and I am a slave to the truth. I have to serve god (others) and the truth. In a captured essence, I need to perform open-mind surgery on society. To those who can think independently. The revolution we need can only be internalized. I don’t have the answers we need but those are locked in the minds of people who are asleep.

The cable news suicide cult… they’re injecting the Kool-aid. Toxic burden is what causes disease and they’re too superstitious and socially conditioned to understand that they are self-harming and acting against their best interests. There is no reasoning with them.

I just needed to air this out. I am going to write today off as me getting absolutely everything I could possibly do to procrastinate off my plate for tomorrow. I have plans this weekend but I need to act my wage so I might cancel them. Which sucks. I wanted to have a hot girl summer but I didn’t get that full-time position I deserved. I am trying to be optimistic about it. That it means that I have room for something bigger and better.

Today is also my roommate’s birthday. She turned 17! Again. We’re the same age. I noticed that she has been slowly, but surely, cleaning those dishes she had piled up in her room for weeks in that laundry basket. She does everything at a glacial pace. Classic Taurus right there. Slow and steady. It will take her a week to bake a cake. Moving in together she absolutely refused to let us move her stuff in when I had the Uhaul truck. She insisted that we slowly move her stuff in over the week because she had this fantasy of doing it nice and slowly and calmly. Complete waste of time. I did it her way and that was the first time I made that mistake. Doing things her way has created half of my 99 problems.

Anyway, I am feeling flustered for no reason. I’ll go do something with my life now.
