Awareness through Astrology

Cosmic Insights – October 11, 2021 October 10, 2021

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of October 11, 2021, begins with the Sun rising in cooperative Libra, illuminating an opportunity to see the light of relationship agendas, and how you allow others to take advantage of you and your resources.  Venus, the ruling planet of Libra is riding the waves of opportunities now in freedom-seeking Sagittarius, offering the chance to consider the personal beliefs received and/or accepted from others about personal self-values and what you deserve and don’t deserve.  The key is to rely on one’s internal wisdom and strength gained from personal experiences to elevate one to a higher position of perception.  Perhaps now is the time to consider and adopt the view of an owl perched high in a tree surveying those who would prey upon it, before it swoops down to eliminate it!  Thus, now is the time to listen more, and say less to gain the advantage that others may seek to take from you with charm and a smiling demeanor.  So in light of the current energy, there is a Cherokee Legend that goes like this:  

A little boy was walking down a path and he came across a rattlesnake. The rattlesnake was getting old. He asked, “Please little boy, can you take me to the top of the mountain? I hope to see the sunset one last time before I die.” The little boy answered “No Mr. Rattlesnake. If I pick you up, you’ll bite me, and I’ll die.” The rattlesnake said, “No, I promise. I won’t bite you. Just please take me up to the mountain.” The little boy thought about it and finally picked up that rattlesnake and took it close to his chest and carried it up to the top of the mountain.

They sat there and watched the sunset together. It was so beautiful. Then after sunset, the rattlesnake turned to the little boy and asked, “Can I go home now? I am tired, and I am old.” The little boy picked up the rattlesnake and again took it to his chest and held it tightly and safely. He came all the way down the mountain holding the snake carefully and took it to his home to give him some food and a place to sleep. The next day the rattlesnake turned to the boy and asked, “Please little boy, will you take me back to my home now? It is time for me to leave this world, and I would like to be at my home now.” The little boy felt he had been safe all this time and the snake had kept his word, so he would take it home as asked.

He carefully picked up the snake, took it close to his chest, and carried him back to the woods, to his home to die. Just before he laid the rattlesnake down, the rattlesnake turned and bit him in the chest. The little boy cried out and threw the snake upon the ground. “Mr. Snake, why did you do that? Now I will surely die!” The rattlesnake looked up at him and grinned, “You knew what I was when you picked me up.” (1)  

Thus, the key now is to pay attention to what you may be picking up from others now that is harmful to you, and advantageous for them.

Meanwhile, the Moon is finishing up a blazing journey through Sagittarius as it moves through the Center of the Milky Way Galaxy with a reminder that it is our emotional vision projected out into the world, which gives form to personal reality.

Shortly after lunch, the Moon moves into power-seeking Capricorn with ambitious career goals and a position of administrative power in mind to become the authority in charge of personal reality.  The significance of the Moon’s current movement through Capricorn now is that Saturn the CEO of Capricorn has just returned from a four-and-a-half month retreat in Aquarius with revised business plans to manifest hopes, wishes, and dreams.  As a result, emotional energy during the next couple of days can be utilized to support the implementation of those plans. 

Therefore, the key to success now lies in enlisting Uranus retrograde in Taurus to appreciate the value of those dreams with an expansive financial investment.  The caveat is that Uranus in Taurus does not release financial funds without assurance that the investment is a sure thing.  Yet, Venus the planetary ruler of Taurus is currently aiming financial intentions through risky Sagittarius with the awareness that you can’t win the lottery if you don’t buy a ticket!  However, Jupiter the archer of Sag is also retrograde in Aquarius, so the best strategy for the Moon in Capricorn to get everyone on board with expansive plans is to prime the emotional pump, by advertising all of the advantages and opportunities that the investment will eventually provide!

Fortunately, the Moon joins Saturn and Jupiter in Aquarius on October 13, with an opportunity to work behind the scenes to support the plans of Saturn in Aquarius with networking and technology, which Jupiter will jump on board to expand on October 17, when it goes direct! 

As luck would have it, the Moon in emotionally intuitive Aquarius is able to work its mental magic through appealing to the subtle agendas of Venus, Mars, and the Sun in Libra to receive benefits for their contributive efforts through the support of Venus in Sagittarius.  The only planetary holdout now is Uranus in Taurus, but Venus in Sagittarius will bring it around with the value and promise of a bigger piece of the pie in January 2022!

However, another hiccup may occur on October 15, when the Moon sails into elusive Pisces with potential doubts about making a long-term commitment that appears to be risky.  Therefore, paying attention to messages received in dreams, meditations, and/or altered states of trance may provide valuable clues about the best direction to choose now.  Jupiter and Neptune, the co-rulers of Pisces are both retrograde, so waiting until October 17, may be a good rule of thumb to follow until Jupiter begins to move forward.  Another cosmic advantage now is that Neptune is retrograde until December 1, so nothing is hidden from view about covert motives.
