The Summary
- The Solar Eclipse in Libra 21*
- Weekly Update
- Israel’s Astrology
- A New Finger of God pointing towards the Eclipse, Mercury and South Node in Libra.
You’ll find in this report several separate events happening for the next few weeks. The compelling Light is moving us to be bold and take action upon the inspirations that have come to us in the past few months of hard work. By this power expressed, I BELIEVE our positive action together overrides any negative drama predicted for the future, in America and the world. The weekly events are for explaining each day’s exact theme, however, because of the Solar Eclipse, all of these aspects described, are found in the Solar Eclipse chart creating one big theme for October.
We all have our assignment, no matter how fantastic or dysfunctional yours might seem, it’s all purposeful and by taking your life to the next stage of purpose and fulfillment, happiness and greatness, it’s changing the future of the world, even assisting in the overriding of potential calamities. Let’s walk through these cycles and see how you might relate to the new influx of Light and boost of love from the Cosmos..
Oct 15 2023 (This aspect is included in the Solar Eclipse) Sun in Libra inconjunct Uranus in Taurus
The Sun’s rays influence our mood and pour into the lovely sign, Libra. It desires connecting, love, extending good will, creating beauty and design. Spending time with loved ones, mending rifts, enjoying relationships and collaborations as this is what Libra is all about. We find these waves of good will running up against Uranus in an inconjunct. Uranus creates interesting disruptions. These types of disruptions could result in feeling under the weather, or necessary adjustments to your plans, disruptions with your normal routine, obligations to handle some tasks or adjust your attention upon things which can not be put off any longer. It’s important sometimes to get these out of the way so you can get back to enjoying the Libra harmony in your life again.
Oct 17 (This aspect is part of the Solar Eclipse) Mercury in Libra inconjunct Uranus in Taurus
Similar to the inconjunct above, an inconvenience dealing with too much to do and not enough time, a carry over of the weekends’ projects … concentration is placed upon a new motivation to take one chunk of work at a time. These tasks are typically mental and involving communication, media, writing or sales, negotiations talking things through with others when Mercury is involved. But because Uranus is in the sign of Taurus some of these may be physically requiring us to handle things around the house tasks, work projects, a shift in how you feel physically. Simply cut through and get it done – even though you might feel a bit overwhelmed with other things pulling on you. This cycle seems to be the week to handle these annoying things. Communications might be a bit strained, along with our health/sleep/nervous system and immune system, these need extra attention.
For some, it might be important to make room for friends, spending quality time with loved ones, or important relationships…even though you have so much on your plate, the inconjunct might press you to make room for a visit.
Oct 18 The Sun, Mercury in Libra conjoin South Node and inconjunct Neptune in Pisces
Most of these quick daily planetary aspects during these weeks are forming a finger of God aspect in the sky. They’re all going to have a similar theme , but this one on October 18 I feel is the core or the most important of all of them and is capturing the original theme of the solar eclipse on October 14 in Libra, which we will talk about in a little bit. So they’re all connected and creating a grand picture for all of us.
Adapting to a new outlook and expecting something better. Your hard work at planning, visualizing and projecting what you want onto your future is now at its crescendo moment – it’s the time of shifting into that new dimension. (This is my sense on the week prior to the Eclipse, and up through the 22, especially the 17 – 19th peaking, as we’re once again entering more deeply into that higher realm, dimension we’ve been discussing for a few years now. This cycle is like walking into a brighter reality, vibrationall4y. It will look the same as your life before, but it’s different. You’re different. You’ll be expecting more from yourself. You desire a greater experience of inner alignment with what you know to be your inner calling, lifestyle, destiny even. You’re craving more of being your real Higher Self in this world, and naturally moving away from lower energies. I suppose you could call it upgrading!. Some will experience a disruption with normal routines, How normal expectations of how we derive security calm comfort and regularity could be erratic for a while. We’re adjusting to a different reality and so it’s going to take some time to get grounded into the new full of surprises world of higher potential.
This transit marks a key moment on our timeline. You’ve climbed hard and steady with getting your mind clear regarding your relationships, partnerships, social life, people who mean everything to you and your social connections, business work connections, your money, happiness, what are our true values and priorities that really resonate with our inner truth. Now we simply need to begin practicing that new space, mindset, in some real way. The Neptune inconjunct Sun would be the challenge to take on a new higher role, see yourself doing something beneficial for you and others which you might not have been comfortable with prior to these past few weeks, or couldn’t believe you could do it? The previous inconjunct from Uranus, is a more intense situation in reality, as if a sudden situation comes upon our life and we have to step it up and adjust and rise to the occasion. It’s a bit more acute and urgent, requiring our minds to be quick…we’re feeling we don’t have a choice, we need to shift and step it up. Now we’re experiencing the Neptune inconjunct and it’s more of an inner knowing that it will all work out fine but we just need to make the shift as inconvenient as it might be, as complicated as it might look and just do it.
The South Nodes’ involvement in this Finger of God (Chart Above) could cause us to frequently look behind us and see how much we’ve changed already to even get to this point to consider that this future plan , and /or new self image can become a reality!
The radiant light of the Sun with intelligent refined Mercury in Libra is moving us forward, even if we don’t know where we will end up or how we are to get there.
The South Node is pulling us back into past memories, past issues, reflecting and remembering certain things which partly were important and necessary to experience, but other parts possibly regrettable. We’re simply meant to grow out of them and leave them behind
We’re leaving all that behind, we’re moving up higher! This is real, it is happening, it’s more than a shift, it’s a graduation to another level up and so your feelings, heart, thoughts and expectations will now be more evolved. You’re different, more of who you really are.
How do I know this is happening? It’s one of those moments upon writing each one of these separate planetary aspects, it became so clear, a cosmic release of energy is descending upon us, like waves of light which have the capacity to penetrate our very existence. Like golden dust, carrying for each person, an engram of change and realignment to a Higher World.
From October 15 – 18, a subtle theme compelling us to change our past pattern, once again but this one is tied into Neptune’s idealism.
The shift we’re experiencing here, is to accept the reality that if we desire to live an Ideal of Neptune, we’re going to have to abandon an old way of wishing it to happen, and get busy adjusting our efforts to really bring it into our physical world.
(I’m halfway through the book “The Source” by Tara Swart and I’m convinced more than ever, we can all do this work easily! By growing certain areas of the brain to hold a different type of information, it literally will alter our everyday reality. Even if it takes a few months to one year, which is what she mentioned on one of her interviews. I highly recommend her book, and watching her video interviews.)
Neptune inconjunct the South Node can be a desire to grow out of our old pattern our old ways… in fact this entire Oct 15 – 22 has that theme of gently pushing us to shift our behavior and embrace a new means of achieving a dream. Since Libra Sun/Mercury are Cardinal signs, they are Blue Ray Signs and denote ACTION – Initiative and movement – moving forward with a new sense of reality – what it’s going to take to get there. There is some good fortune with this amazing new cycle because of the Neptune shift to the Sun, somehow not only challenges us to step up and grasp the new life ahead of us, but brings a benefit to us. And, it ties right into the Solar Eclipse which began October 14 in Libra increasing our belief in our future balance, harmony and peace within our lives.
Oct 20/21 Mercury and Sun at 27* Libra square Pluto at 27* Capricorn
This is a small issue for a short period of time. We might get stuck with hard tasks, difficult conversations, problems with mail, numbers, connections or relationships. It’s not the best day for any type of paperwork, correspondence, significant meetings where you’re expecting a nice outcome – communications is strained, mental burdens and hard work. It’s only for a day, but can put a wedge in someone’s outlook for a while – no worries, it’s just a day of gathering difficult truths and information. Drive safely. Don’t sign any paperwork if it can be avoided.
Oct 21/22 By the evening of the 21st into the 22nd, Venus at 12* Virgo trine Jupiter at 12* Taurus …
…replacing the issues of the past two days with some reprieve.
A happier day with rushes of relief, positive outlook, optimism returned. A nice time of meetings, social connections, friendships and feeling supported, giving your support to others. Money, creative work, health and emotional well being can feel very nice during this cycle. A better experience with getting along with others, feeling listened to, good for finances, body, massage and self care!
Oct 21-22 Mercury enters Scorpio trine Saturn in Pisces
This planetary influence could have us catching ourselves thinking too small, negatively, and deciding to let it go, discipline ourselves. Coming to some serious conclusions or decisions where we know it’s time to enter into a new challenge, commitment towards one or two particular things, and truly mean it. This cycle is excellent for energetic healing work, massage, artistic design graphic arts creativity and music. Its perfect for having a heart to heart conversation with someone meaningful.
Our minds should be sharp, penetrating into issues and determined to engage in a plan. Elimination of extraneous things, projects, thoughts? It’s time to get focused! A rejuvenation of one’s will to make it through.
Oct 22/23rd – November 22, 2023 Sun enters Scorpio
Sun enters the depths of Scorpio increasing your commitment to engage in more demanding tasks. It causes an undercurrent of going deeper, more real, authentic in one’s life. Our interactions with others are sincere and our feelings are engaged. We might feel compelled to go the extra mile with others, with our work, our every day inspirations. Layers are uncovered, and emotional strength is accessed within.
Oct 23- 24 Sun trine Saturn at 0* Pisces
Personal discipline feels good when your vision is set on a desirable outcome. Because of the Sun in Scorpio’s penetrating and investigating nature, this cycle increases your confidence in all the reasons why you should align yourself with someone, a project, a company, a new collaboration or re-commitment of some sort – maybe to someone you already know and are in a relationship with. But with this aspect, it feels so right. Sharing, trust, bonding, collaboration, pooling resources and give and take of your personal assets, gifts, talents are now easy to realize as we almost can feel as if we are one with this other person or activity. And it can be a powerful cycle for sharing, giving help and asking for support love and friendship. Expecting a bond of togetherness.
Oct 28/29 Mars and Mercury at 11* Scorpio oppose Jupiter at 11* Taurus
This last week of October, especially the 26th – 29th could have us stretching ourselves in order to rise to the occasion and compensate for what another might not have considered. Any time Jupiter oppose a planet, we’re presented with a person and/or situation usually caused by a person, where we’re being expected to stretch ourselves beyond our normal standards or values. It doesn’t mean we need to cave in and accommodate, but I found it’s a time to discover what is over there on the other side of the grand canyon of this person’s belief, expectations or activities\’ culture, etc.. In order to either agree, negotiate, or self protect.
Sometimes it costs money, or time or physical effort. With Scorpio/Taurus, physical effort or paying for something is involved in this stretching of ourselves. We could feel caught in a trap or an awkward situation. It is a learning experience in regards to what the other side is believing to be common and natural, when in reality, it might not be! And then there’s always those difficult situations where your morality and ethics are in direct polar opposite to somebody else’s attitude and cultural reality. What do you do when that happens, awkward moment if you are close to that individual.
Oct 30 – 31 Venus at 21* Virgo trine Uranus at 21* Taurus and Mars at 13* Scorpio trine Hades at 13* Cancer
Another helpful kinder day of aligning ourselves to love, being around our favorite people and enjoying the unusual, unconventional and surprises in store. It’s good for work, musicians, creative ideas, artistic unconventional abnormal splashy, original work.
A great time to enjoy social events as there is an energy of lightness and novelty in the air. For some, it might be a vivaciously exciting electric feeling. Unexpected events, parties, fun or social gatherings could be happening during these days.
SOLAR ECLIPSE October 14, 2023
The Solar Eclipse and Finger of God to the Sun/Moon in Libra.
Neptune in Pisces sextiles Uranus in Taurus both inconjunct Sun/Moon (New Moon) Solar Eclipse in Libra, the south node and Mercury in Libra. (chart below)
As you can see, this is a replica of the previous chart earlier, isolating only the finger of God planets within the solar eclipse. The Sun, Moon, South Node and Mercury are on the far right. They are all in an inconjunct ( a 150* angle) to the Neptune on the upper left side, and the Uranus on the lower left forming a sideways, Y .
What’s the big deal about a Finger of God?
This particular pattern the finger of God, represents the necessity to make the right choice, choose the right way to move forward or respond to an intense past life karma, our old predictable manner in which we typically choose a lower way, an old familiar routine or more of a stuck or even selfish decision versus a better higher choice which will lead us to a happier future.
For your personal world, know each Solar Eclipse creates a phenomena in our lives where all minor issues are suddenly eclipsed and the one main priority is exposed, elevated to the top of our list in order to address it. On top of the importance of a solar eclipse, this one actually has a double importance because it’s creating forming a finger of God!
As we approach the solar eclipse, usually about 1 week prior to the exact date, which would be the date of 7th/8th of October, and as the days tick off up to October 14, it becomes very clear what we now have on our plate to accomplish. taking care of yourself, loving yourself, gifting yourself something, may all be part of the finger of God lesson and the solar eclipse.
You can find what this elevated priority might be by searching the outer rim of your own birth chart, and locating the Libra sign on one of your 12 houses.
(Example of Libra symbol on a birth chart) Since the Solar Eclipse is at 21* Libra, we place it right in the 10th house in this chart, as the next house to the left, The eleventh house, is 6* Scorpio, so the Sun/Moon Eclipse fits nicely right in the 10th house. You can find your House cusp Libra on your chart. (Free Chart Here)…and read up on each of the houses’ meanings Here.
It might take you a bit to discover the meaning, but should be easy, as it should be a general clear motivation, direction – a sense of duty or discipline of some sort to engage in this obvious next thing in our lives. Something which needs to be addressed. To keep it simple I feel it’s something that’s going to make you happy
This October, with the Eclipse in Libra conjoin Mars in Scorpio, it requires from us a bit more effort. This is because of Mars in its own sign joined with this eclipse. It is a much more driven energy added to the Eclipse motivation. It activates our vision, clarity, the ability to see. It is emerald green in color, stimulates inner sight as Scorpio connects to the inner vision glands and chakra of the body. Mars in Scorpio might even require shelling out some cash to get it.
Holding the vision of your end goal is what is being activated in order to help us with our new priority.
Venus, the ruler of the Libra Eclipse, (the planet Venus is the ruler over Libra and Taurus) is opposing Saturn in Pisces, which demands diligence to provide something useful and thoughtful towards another.
(Saturn oppositions create a theme for the need to be more aware or considerate towards another, a bit of tension with something or someone can also be felt).
This Saturn is also trine Mars in Scorpio during this eclipse, so the drive to act on this urge, to produce and work towards something meaningful will most likely be successful.
The Sun, Moon, Mercury in Libra are all slightly square to Pluto. Globally, similar to last April’s Solar Eclipse also square Pluto, a theme of endings for those who’s agenda is to tighten their control over people – which could also intensify severe retaliation from these activities which leads to a challenging event which some on the internet are calling, “the Big Event”. I believe there are two dates I found where it could be activated – February 10 – 22, 2024, and April 8 or there about, on the next Solar Eclipse cycle.
If something devastating does actually befall America especially, there will be a clash, a reaction so intense and prolonged, as Pluto will once again be moving into the revolutionary exposure sign Aquarius in 2024.
Pluto has also been in a square to the Nodes which began end of July up through August 2023 and on….
This continues with the death and endings of the old financial system within the Pluto square eclipse cycle (the new moon in Libra squared by Pluto), and could mark the end of the old outworn financial alliances and pact which was made (all Libra themes) which are based upon corruption and deception .(One of the lower frequencies of Libra, rules organized crime)
Again, with Pluto’s square, it marks the serious end or closure of some old arrangement and the start of something New and Better. These pressures from Pluto etc…previous cycles with Pluto conjoin the U.S. Conceptional Pluto in Capricorn, the Pluto square Jupiter in Taurus beginning last May 2023, and especially the July 28 – August in general, Pluto square to the Nodes, were symbols to me, the start of the unraveling of financial and other intense agendas to continue control over people. With more clashes, conflicts, complications, the beginning of the end regarding false and deceptive economic structures and control.
Years from now, we would look back upon these cycles beginning 2021 -2024 and see how obvious it was that a financial ending really did occur and the start of a new activity of financial freedom slowly took over as Pluto moves into Aquarius
The problem with so many of these astrological global reveals, is will we ever know exactly what is going on, what was involved in these transitions? Everything is so secret, behind the scenes, yet with our planetary read, we can decipher the world.
The Eclipse in our Personal Affairs
We can experience the theme of each Solar Eclipse coming a week or two before the event. As we enter the Eclipse day, my sense , is that I’ve already experienced what it was I needed to focus upon or accept. The theme tends to last strongly for over a month – and may trickle on for 5 months afterwards. Lunar Eclipses don’t act the same way.
In our own personal life, a shift and learning curve regarding an old way of what we use to act like around our job, our home, or any other routine situation…changing how we approach things…what we value, prioritize and habitual pattern in how we go through life, making way for a new set of priorities, values, these ideas are all aligned with Libra square Pluto. Can you relate in any way as to how it is all lining up with the YOD, the finger of God, causing us to shift, moving up into a new Reality for ourselves? We are meant to advance in our expectations of how we can live and it all happens within our mind. This is because of Mercury also involved in the solar eclipse. Definitely we are in a transition of moving into a higher reality because the old routine unfamiliar every day experiences are just not working like they used to. Has definitely changed Pluto Square is an ending of an old way, and its squaring the solar eclipse in Libra which Libra has everything to do with a richer life, the end of the negatives of Libra which are coasting along not necessarily taking strong action for ourselves the end of that! And the beginning of designing and taking action on how we know things need to be. Finger of God in the Eclipse tells us we are having to try things we haven’t done before and make adjustments into a new situation that’s going to pay off in the long run.
Sometimes Libra inspires beauty, refinement, luxury or financial abundance, ease of living. It can bring issues up regarding marriage or divorce, settlements and money. The Finger of God or YOD pointing to this Eclipse in Libra, puts a goal or desired outcome upon some of these Libra issues we would like to resolve, settle, acquire or achieve, but we have to do it in the right way. The right motive and embrace love.
Personally, the Saturn’s role oppose Venus, could demand some long hours and hard work in order to reach these goals, and some steadfastness and conscientiousness, putting these tasks in motion… in order to bring the new way into a reality. And, it seems, with this Saturn oppose Venus, we also want to make it work, for the sake of others’ benefits, not just our own. Saturn oppositions call to us to give our time and effort to others even if it requires tact, patience, sizing up how other people in your life see things in order to reach a mutually desired end goal. It could also push us to get quite serious in our expectation for justice and quality work, fairness or having someone meet us halfway.
This is in the Solar Eclipse theme, which all these descriptions in some way, could last for five months, Or they could even come to fruition rapidly within the next month and a half to 2 months.
Uranus at 21* Taurus inconjunct the Solar Eclipse can symbolize a shift, a sudden adjustment, something we are becoming aware of that must change…a shift of plans, Change of direction or how we are to approach something , it could even be something as simple as choosing one way of doing a project over another way of doing a project or with the people we choose to do it with, a shift of work, a shift of a relationship, or how you see something…. it definitely denotes a big change occurring in your life somehow, is going on this past week, up through next week.
We let go of one way,, an old pattern of how we interact with certain people, or a lifestyle, or ease, or maybe, the familiar way…. (which is all about Libra) and shift into a new attitude…it can also bring inconveniences out of nowhere! But Uranus truly desires us to break old molds and embrace an acceleration of some sort. Just had been building for weeks, culminates October 10 through November 5 I would suspect and peaks on October 14.
The Uranus pressures us to go on a journey of change, to adjust in a more abrupt distinctly brand new motion. Maybe you’ve thought about it forever, but the Uranus inconjunct in a way, forces us to change even when we’re not quite fully ready. It could be a new job, new technology, new home, new environment or a new way of moving forward with yourself, shifting how you feel about yourself because something new has just happened to you, and you are now relating to others in a better new way.
Can you think of anything recently you’ve had to put extra work into, in order to find yourself in a better position in your life? Anything you’ve had to go through? Purchase? Change or adjust? One word of caution, be very aware of your environment, where you’re going, how you’re driving, be aware of people around you avoiding accidents.
Commentary that the Eclipse is what triggered Hamas attack
As we place this Eclipse around Israel’s chart, the only indication of the Eclipse possibly aligning with Hamas attack on Israel, would be the Eclipses’ focus in the 12th house of Israel, and Mars conjoin Israel’s Ascendant in Scorpio. These planetary positions means the Eclipse is highlighting a deception involved in this attack, a subterfuge complicated act which has its primary agenda in deceptive deep purposes with motivations with help from behind the scenes, not obvious right away on the surface, to the average observer.
The aggression itself, is shown by Mars positioned exactly on Israels’ Ascendant, (seen in chart below on the far left, conjoin Ascendant) which represents the physical body of the nation ( a physical violent and dark attack since Mars is in Scorpio involving many deaths and far reaching ramifications) – but the eclipse, which helps us discover the highlighted purpose of the event, is in the 12th house, of things which are hidden. Strategic planning in secret, utilizing unsuspecting entities for support, complex agreements and arrangements made between parties for complicated outcomes, not all related to Israel or Palestine. Secret enemies on both sides involved in the strategic aggression.
The October 7 2023 Hamas Attack on Israel Chart
There is a background of course we’re all aware of, Israel and Palestine history, however with the Eclipse in the 12th, and Mars in Scorpio on the Ascendant the solar eclipse, there are many pieces we are not aware of such as 12th house subterfuge involving agreements …. It denotes they received help.
Collaborations, assistance and support, with Venus at 28* Leo October 7, chart…
….conjoin Israel’s Mars, with the Mars ruling Aries on Israel’s 6th house, (6th house rules the military) possibly military personal were complicit, Or given instructions that were contrary their position but I would say not even the normal narrative of the background we all know between Palestine and Israel explains away this act. it seems like a brazen move with multiple purposes.
Even though an event could occur before or just after an Eclipse, the planetary event is so strong, we find we’re in the shadow of it anyway, before during and after the Eclipse. This is why the event occurred on October 7, but we still consider that the eclipse had some magnetic pole on the timing of this event. Was not until October 14th of the eclipse
The Mars in Scorpio on the Ascendant shown in the Solar Eclipse chart, could reveal that something allowed the penetration to happen, as Mars in Scorpio denotes a collaboration could have occurred to weaken the strong defenses and barriers. The trine to Israel’s Venus in the 9th house, and ruling Taurus on the 7th house of allies, could indicate Hamas received help disabling tech, and guards, allowing weaknesses within the defenses…..this all points to the Astrology of the Eclipse in Israel’s 12th house of secret agendas, behind the scenes sabotage and Israels Secret enemies in their own camp.
Again, Mars’ relentless drive to create a domino effect upon middle east balance, the region’s resources, could truly cause this event to be quite devastating, including the number of the possible displaced people and deaths of the innocent.
With Uranus almost in an exact conjunction to Israel’s 7th house Sun in Taurus of partnerships and key relationships, including Palestinians….could be the beginning of an absolutely Epic moment in time, demanding change to occur once in 83 years to Israels’ position and Taurus territorial posture, along with other countries’ position in the matter. Who and how are these entities gaining from this? Transit of Uranus can join Israel’s Sun is a long period of increased disruption, transparency, pressuring objective outcomes for the betterment of all, and for all an ultimate freer future.
Uranus the planet of transformation, sudden unconventional bold statements, It demands change, diplomacy, negotiation and transformation of the territorial ownership (Taurus) theme. This is only the start, as Uranus conjoin Israel’s Sun, It’s launched a new cycle with regards to discussing territory and assets, yet will not peak until May through July 2024, as negotiations continue at an intense new level of demands up through April 2025.
One thing we haven’t talked about with solar eclipse and Libra, is that Libra can rule warfare and open enemies. We’ve got a solar eclipse finger of God pointing to the potential of a pretty nasty war here and this is of course the polar opposite of the negotiating, diplomacy potential, harmony and peace of the true higher nature of Libra. It seems all the way around, all parties involved in this instigation have flunked their finger of God Test.
That’s all I can decipher out of these astrology cycles for Israel as I am not a political analyst, but wanted to give my two cents worth on the planets to this complex web of global chaos. Hoping for your most obvious and amazing realization as to how you now want to live your life! Best Wishes, Christine
