Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
~ The Summer Day, by Mary Oliver
The heat is turning up in the astrological world: the t-squares, the eclipses next month (stay tuned), the conjunctions! Oh my!
Although you may feel like you’re heading toward a necessary breakdown, you can keep your cool amidst the dizzying changes by focusing on how small you really are.
Yes, you are inextricably linked with everything else, and this makes you bigger than you can possibly imagine. But this connection also means that you are just a small part of the whole, and this makes you free. You are free to take a risk, to step out of the old shell, to plant your feet in new terrain, to dream, to cherish what you love.
Around June 8th, when Uranus and Jupiter are exactly conjunct at 0-Aries, be ready to see a surprising solution to a persistent issue. Keep awake and you’ll be rewarded with a burst of juicy inspiration from the universe, helping you turn lemons into lemonade or make those mountains molehill-size again.
The answer could be strange -- nothing that you expected -- and that’s just the point. The old ways of seeing won’t get us out of our personal and planetary messes. We have to get brand new eyes.
This aspect is sometimes called the “Thank God” aspect, but it’s also an electric dose of “I am.” With Jupiter and Uranus in Aries, we are beginning a journey of re-imagining who we are, visioning the kind of power and support we want to work with, and stepping into our unique, rightful place in the world.
Who are you? What are you? Break out of your usual labels. Start small. What’s one particularly annoying part of you that’s ready to be liberated? What part of your life could use a good buzz of radical insight, dazzling vitality, or outrageous adventure?
