Astrology for the Week of September 19, 2011

By Michele Freeman

The theme for this week is the Child of Crystals: the Learner. This is a reminder that the rules by the way we lived our life no longer work. This is what 2012 is about: letting go of what we think we know and discovering what the world really is. This week, examine your beliefs and break through the fears of letting go of old conditioned perspectives, which are now holding you back. Establish new values and perspectives, which will bring you growth and expansion. See the world through the Child’s eyes of wonder and magic.

First of all, I want to remind you that we are still in the middle of the energy of the intense T-square, which started last Sunday. If your life is like mine, things have definitely sped up and are on overdrive right now. We are all being pushed from all directions and sometimes the answers are hard to see. This means that you cannot rely on logic; you must incorporate your heart in your decisions and actions if you want to see the truth. Remember the purpose of this aspect is to make you give up your old story about you, which is not working anyway. Sometimes we cling to what we do not want because we are afraid of what we do not know or understand. Even though we are told we can create our futures, we have many failures around that, so we are not sure if it will work this time. It will - when you let go of the old you. However, never fear, Uranus has a way of making you let go if you do not want to. Some of you will experience extreme challenges with your health, some with relationships, some with work and business, and others with money. It will be the thing that will be the hardest to let go of. The thing you most identify with. Let’s face it; it is human nature to take the path of least resistance. However, this time, you won’t be able to.

On Friday, September 23, the Fall Equinox begins at 2:05 am PDT. This is the time to harvest what you planted in your life this last year. This brings up the quote by Einstein which is “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” Look at where you applied this is your life this last year.

Mars (action) is conjunct the Moon (emotion) and Mercury (communication) and Sun are conjunct (the self/ego). This will be wonderful energy to use to start a project or to supercharge the one you are working on. This also can bring ups some interesting (fiery) reactions in our current political climate. Expect to see some dramatic bizarre outbursts from those vying the presidency. Watch it reach a new level of incredulous stupidity as they all project themselves into the limelight.

On Sunday, September 25, the Sun (self/ego) is in opposition to Uranus, which heightens the potential for paradigm shifts. Our beliefs shape our experiences in this world. This is a great time to take a leap of faith and go for unlimited possibilities.
