We are going into potential shifts in the energies associated with planets which are changing signs TOGETHER!

Going back at least 3000 years... we've never had the condition where Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto have all changed signs and they're all trining and sextiling one another by exact degrees."🤯

While the aspects these outer planets are making will eventually be OK, the movements of the faster moving, “personal planets” are creating the feelings and experiences of unease. This dynamic is creating both an underlying sense of hope & the period of intensity we’re in now. 

To help navigate the situations in your life, Adam Gainsburg specifically offered this, "Do not act impulsively. Take a breath and back up before you say anything or take any action." He makes an important divide between impulsive and decisive action, noting that the difference lies in "where I am coming from in my action."

Adam said that whether we choose to react (from unhealed aspects of ourselves) or respond (from a place of clarity and self-awareness) now will have ripple effects that we'll feel over the next six months. So taking the time to ensure you're coming from as clear a place as possible before acting.

Sending love to you all.

The Great Shift: A New Age of Power and Connection

This week marks a monumental cosmic event: Pluto, the planet of transformation, is leaving Capricorn and entering Aquarius. This transition signifies the end of an era and the dawn of a new one.

The past era, dominated by Capricorn's energy, challenged our collective and individual beliefs about power. We witnessed a world where power was concentrated in the hands of a few, often associated with ambition, status, and hierarchical structures. Since 2008, we've been learning to source our power from our innate gifts and inner drive, rather than external validation.

As Pluto moves into Aquarius, we're shifting our focus from individual achievement to collective consciousness. The emphasis is on humanitarianism, community, and interconnectedness. We're moving towards a world where power is distributed more equitably, where everyone has a voice, and where we recognize our shared humanity.

This transition won't happen overnight. It's a gradual process that will unfold over the next two decades. As the Aquarian energy takes root, we'll witness a slow but significant shift towards a more egalitarian society.

To harness this powerful energy, reflect on your personal journey since 2008. Consider how you've transformed and how you've learned to source your power. Honor the challenges and triumphs you've experienced, and recognize the profound changes that have taken place within you. As we embark on this new chapter, let's embrace the opportunity for growth, connection, and collective evolution.

A new journey awaits us.

I don't know who needs to hear about the Full Moon in Aries but

I feel this pull of energy in my life towards something that is going to shape my path forward and observing people around me, I cannot help but feel that that the coming full moon in Aries is serving as a significant completion point for some of the things in our lives. What exactly, how exactly, is different from people to people. Some may experience huge endings like the passing of someone close, others in areas like getting a new place or new dogs. It could also be the end of a bad habit.

The way the universe works and the paths we take in our lives, things might not be fully resolved under this full moon I think. Though, it is definitely actively generating everything needed for us to reach that completion.

It might not be easy to see it or ease it but if a sense of tension or if issues seem to arise suddenly, get into the review, reevaluate and rework mode. There is a path to bring everything to a satisfying close. Resolution could just be under your nose.

The Pisces Lunar Eclipse: A Glimpse of Abundant Growth

The partial lunar eclipse of September 18, 2024 , will occur in the sign of Pisces. Eclipses, often indicators of change and transformation, mark the end of one cycle and the dawn of another. 

Imagine this: Pisces, a mutable water sign, represents boundless creativity, intuition, and fluidity. Virgo, a mutable earth sign, embodies meticulous planning, practicality, and groundedness. Together, they create an environment ripe for growth, like a fertile field waiting for something to grow from it. 

Allow me to offer you a glimpse into what this means. 

Unfolding from February 2025 onwards, marks the shift of the lunar nodes into the Pisces-Virgo axis, a potent combination of fertile energy.

However, the success of harvest depends on the details, from your daily routines, from what you feed your body, your habits, how you are immersed in your social circle and the places and things you surround yourself with. 

The key lies in connection: By aligning yourself with these details, you strengthen your connection to a higher power, a sense of flow within the ever-changing energy around you. This empowers you to gracefully navigate and shape your environment for abundant growth.

In this transformative energy, strive to become a kinder, healthier, and more loving you. Whatever your goals are, show your commitment by meticulously tending to the details that nurtures them. 

Alas! Our world is undergoing a significant transformation from what we used to know and live in, at great speed. While the full picture of what it might become may be unclear, this shift will soon impact our individual lives in ways that demand immediate attention.

Hence, with this eclipse season presenting a precious opportunity for spiritual growth and self-improvement we must to take it. By becoming more attuned to our minds, bodies, and rhythms, we can enhance our agility and adaptability as we face the rapid changes of the coming years. The more we invest in our preparation now, the more empowered we'll feel in the future.

While the time for setting intentions and manifesting will come, now is the moment to prioritize practical matters. Address those nagging tasks and schedule long-overdue doctor's appointments or meetings with your financial advisers. By creating a more conducive environment for yourself—eliminating distractions, draining activities, unhealthy habits, or toxic relationships—you'll reap significant benefits in the coming year.

Time is of the essence. Before Saturn stations direct in Pisces again, seize this chance to tackle some of your most important goals. Remember, the devil is in the details.

[soospiritualjourney]

Our Path Forward

We're on a journey towards something extraordinary. We aim to be beacons of light in a world that needs it now more than ever. This is a challenging time, marked by unprecedented cosmic shifts.

Five outer planets are changing signs within a remarkably short period. This hasn't happened before in recorded history. These planets represent the grand themes of our world, the foundational structures. Their shift signifies a radical transformation—new energies, new influences, a new world emerging.

If you believe in the purposeful nature of life, then you’ve chosen to be here now. We’ve endured challenges, from the pandemic to personal trials, yet here we stand. Our resilience is a testament to our purpose. We’re meant to shine.

We’re navigating these global changes while integrating them into our lives. It’s unsettling, and those around us are feeling the strain too. Fear, uncertainty, and anxiety are prevalent. But amidst the chaos, opportunities will arise.

It's understandable to feel overwhelmed. Fear and uncertainty are contagious. But remember, we're not alone. Everyone is grappling with these shifts. The future is uncertain, especially for younger generations.

We must envision the world we want to create, not just the transitional phase. This requires planning and a deep commitment to service. How can we help others navigate these changes? Sometimes, it’s as simple as offering encouragement. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

May we all awaken to the profound truth of our interconnectedness, and may our hearts be filled with an unwavering commitment to being beacons for others. Let love and compassion guide us as we navigate these transformative times, inspiring a world where everyone feels seen, heard, and cherished.

[soospiritualjourney]

Alas! 🫥 Emotional baggages are like past scars that we sometimes forget about. But when life gets shit-hit-fan-bleh or we have a big disagreement with someone, these old wounds can suddenly reopen. It's like when a friend is trying really hard to explain something important, and you both end up feeling angst. If you can work through that tension without blowing up, you might discover something good.

It's natural to want to pull away and think things over during dark times. This alone time helps us process what's going on is okay. It is not just about us as individuals; the whole world seems to be struggling with this cray cray energy 😓

Maybe the problems we face inside ourselves are connected to the problems happening around us. May we all heal our hurts with divine guidance 🦋

[soospiritualjourney]

Awakening

The full moon is a time where we cleanse, we let go, we release. This energy now is not closing something that only happened this month. We are closing a bigger cycle. The universe wants us to understand what are the main patterns, the karmic patterns that we are operating in our life. What are the subconscious patterns we have. Maybe they are things that happened in our childhood, when we were teenagers, and we keep having these wounds, these traumas, and some ways we use to operate. And because of this, we have been going through the same cycles in our lives. It might look different - different people, different environments, different situations but we’re experiencing is exactly the same thing.

Fortunately, we are now called to break this cycle.

This energy is clearing so many things and opening up opportunities for new actions. The action is not based on what has happened. It is an action that’s going to be based on the choice you make. When we become conscious, we become the creators. Now we can choose this for our lives.

This full moon brings up the patterns that we have been stuck in. The full moon takes off our rose-tinted glasses and shows us what we can see, so that we can choose what it is that we want to do to get out. At first look, what comes out might feel weird or uncomfortable, but that’s only because it’s new to us. Keep what comes up, it’s important. The message is to create what you want and take ownership. What wounds is often started during our childhood, something that we brought from then to now. We are healing in this energy in this lifetime. You’re operating in this lifetime on a fear that started then. It makes you go into a circle of things that are toxic for you over and over again. Don’t be afraid to dive deep into what was there then, go back to the childhood wound, and acknowledge what happened. Break the structure of the inner child that we have been for so many years and see that there is a different way out of this labyrinth we have kept ourselves in.

If you’re feeling the heaviness, you can use the energies of the Capricorn full moon to release the tensions, to let go of those heavy burdens that fall off your shoulders. If you’re feeling you’re carrying the weight of the world or feeling helpless, give thought to what needs to go, what needs to be released – that’s where your power lies when you use these energies proactively.

However, there may be heavy things that we are carrying that we cannot let go of, things we cannot release, and that is where we are now in our lives. When we cannot release something, we want to think about how we can surrender to it. Think back to the June full moon. That was the beginning of this Capricorn full moon energy, and now we have the completion. A story is being wrapped up, something is coming to an end. Maybe you’re experiencing some kind of ending at this point of the month as well.

Stay open to what’s coming in.

How to reclaim your peace from emotional vampires

They Chip Away at Your Self-Esteem

These people constantly overstep boundaries and disregard your privacy.

They deflect blame, making you feel responsible for everything, even when it isn't your fault.

Around them, you shrink, feeling like a diminished version of yourself.

They make sweeping judgments about you without understanding the real you.

Mature conversations are impossible. They resort to childish tactics instead of healthy communication.

Their needs and way of life constantly force you to compromise your values and happiness.

Instead of direct communication, they resort to passive-aggressive behavior, leaving you feeling confused and frustrated.

Stop Feeding the Cycle

Toxic people thrive on negativity. Don't reward their bad behavior with your reactions.

Break free from their influence. Stop tiptoeing on eggshells or making excuses for their actions.

Detach with compassion. Resentment only hurts you. Let go for your own well-being.

Remember, you are not responsible for their toxicity.

Focus on surrounding yourself with positive, supportive people who uplift and respect you.

[soospiritualjourney]

We've all felt it - that post-peak energy slump. It's like the universe is tapping us on the shoulder, whispering, "Hey, it's time to recharge." This nudge often coincides with the new moon in Cancer, a time for deep emotions and reflection.

But here's the good news: This dip in energy isn't a punishment; it's an opportunity. It's a chance to:

Reconnect with your inner self: The Sun, Ceres, and Moon together create a powerful introspective energy. Use this time to listen to your heart and soul.

Let go and start fresh: No matter what's happened, this lunar phase allows you to cleanse and begin anew. Release what no longer serves you, and step forward with renewed purpose.

Replenish your wellspring: Don't push through this fatigue. Embrace rest, self-care, and activities that revitalize you. This renewed energy will fuel your next chapter.

Remember: Even if things were going great, this pause isn't a backwards step. It's a chance to reimagine your path. Where do you want to go from here?

This lunar cycle encourages us to not just break free from negativity, but to cultivate hope and return to places where we once felt joy. Let this be a time for renewal, not regret.

Bonus Tip: Since Cancer is a water sign, consider activities that soothe your soul - a calming bath, journaling your emotions, or spending time with loved ones.

Thinning the Veil: A Potent Week of Intuition, Clarity, and Powerful Releases

We just had a powerful one-two punch from the cosmos: the June solstice on Friday, June 21st, followed by a Capricorn full moon on Saturday, June 22nd.

What does this mean?

Some people might feel this energy more strongly than others. It's a time when the veil between worlds seems thinner, making it easier to connect with your intuition, spirit guides, and higher dimensions. This can bring about powerful insights and a deeper understanding of yourself. In the coming week, you might experience a surge of clarity.

Clarity and Release

Over the next week, you might experience a surge of clarity. Full moons are known for illuminating things that need to be released, like emotional blockages, limiting beliefs, or anything else holding you back. Don't be surprised if things come up that you haven't addressed before. Here's the key: don't try to fix everything right away. Simply acknowledge what comes up. Spend time meditating, journaling, or just reflecting. Recognizing these blocks is the first step to moving past them. If you feel you need extra support, don't hesitate to reach out for help.

As we move through this week, consider these questions:

What new insights have I gained?

What am I ready to acknowledge or release?

What areas of my life require more ownership?

Taking Ownership (Especially with a Capricorn Moon)

This Capricorn full moon encourages us to take responsibility for our lives. If you've been struggling with something, consider how you can step up and take ownership. Whether you do it alone or seek help, taking charge is a powerful way to move forward. Remember, this is all part of your personal growth journey.

May day 2024

May is a month of amazing opportunities, but they won’t arrive at our doorstep with fail-safe guarantees. For many people, April was a tough month with its eclipse, Mercury retrograde, and the portal-opening Jupiter-Uranus conjunction. Therefore, it might come as a surprise that, as intense as April was, it is not the crescendo.

It’s as if we got on the roller coaster ride, only to discover that the rides are not as tame as we expected and there’s no way to get off before the ride comes to a complete stop.

There is still hard work to be done and difficult lessons to be learned. Old wounds may resurface at the end of the month on May 29. We cannot blindly force our way through whatever resistance we encounter. Success may require serious compromise, but swallowing a bitter pill of truth is a wiser action than choking on the poisonous fruit of unresolved fear and anger.

So, what does this mean for us?

Boundaries are being tested in ways that require both emotionally and physically adjustments. We are being asked to find solutions to issues that has been bothering us. To do that, we may have to step out into the darkness to face our demons and in the process, rein in our fears - Shame, judgement, the unknown, death, meaninglessness, not being good enough, karma, fomo.

A door to transformational energy is created in the cosmic during this time which opens many doors and this can sometimes feel overwhelming. We can prepare for these potential distractions by focusing our intentions and grounding our energy during the sensible Taurus New Moon on May 8 1:21 AM in Singapore. Taking the time to locate our center of gravity as this lunation forms a cooperative stability energy to realign our ambitious goals with our core values. Meditation is medicine; following our intuition is likely to produce the most satisfying results.

We can stumble if we unconsciously succumb to the temptation of excess, over-indulgence, or avoidance of responsibility. Too much of a good thing is not necessarily beneficial; wearing rose-colored glasses can inspire denial or delusion. We must remember to slow down when everything around us speeds up or we can lose control of our trajectory.

Feeling Grumpy? Blame the Stars!

Hey, have you heard about Mars conjunct Saturn? It's like a cosmic tug-of-war happening up there.

**Basically, things might get a little tense for the next couple of weeks.** Think of it like that feeling right before an earthquake – everything feels a bit on edge. Don't be surprised if you see a crane wobble or hear about some bumps in the road (literally or figuratively!).

**If you're feeling grumpy or short-tempered, that's totally normal.** Just be aware of it, and maybe take a breath before you react. If you sense a potential conflict brewing, try to de-escalate instead of adding fuel to the fire.

**Look, we don't have to walk on eggshells, but a little awareness goes a long way.** If someone's pushing your buttons, maybe take a walk or change the subject. It's okay to walk away from a fight sometimes.

**And as for any big plans or projects? Hold off for a couple of weeks.** This isn't the best time to launch anything new. Once Mercury goes direct, that'll be your green light to move forward.

**In the meantime, channel that Mars-Saturn energy into something productive!** Review, revise, rebuild – that kind of stuff is perfect for this transit.

This edgy feeling won't last forever. It'll ease up as April progresses. Just hang in there and we'll get through it together.

[soospiritualjourney]

We feel you April 8 Solar Eclipse!

Today's Aries Solar Eclipse was in close alignment, or conjunct, with Chiron, the Wounded Healer.

Imagine "conjunct" like two friends standing side-by-side. In astrology, it means two celestial bodies appearing very close together in the sky, amplifying each other's energies.

Chiron, in mythology, though a healer and teacher, also carries the weight of past wounds. Similarly, this eclipse may stir up some past hurts, but it's a nudge towards growth.

Any crisis arising during this time may hold a spiritual lesson. The eclipse is a nudge to embody the courageous, independent spirit of Aries – to take bold action and make that change!

As the saying goes, fortune favors the brave in fiery Aries.**

The eclipse happened 2.30am on April 9 2024 Singapore time

[soospiritualjourney]

ARE YOU SAYING "I DO!" IN THIS SOLAR ECLIPSE?

Whoa!

What is a Solar Eclipse?

Solar eclipses used to be dreaded by rulers everywhere. They were seen as an omen of downfall, death, or the departure of a monarch. Kings and queens would nervously look up at the sky, fearing the eclipse as the sun was blocked out, plunging the day into darkness.

Today, solar eclipses are interpreted differently. We see and sometimes feel them as a burst of energy, a hidden quality of the sun being revealed as it's momentarily covered by the moon, like a ring of light around the moon.

The idea of a wild impulse becomes very powerful.

Eclipses and Self-Reflection

From a psychological perspective, eclipses are seen as a time for rectification – a chance to check in with yourself and see if you're on the right path. It's a time to ask yourself:

Am I following my life's purpose?

Have I strayed from my course?

Do I need to make changes?

These times may lead to strong emotions being expressed or difficulty with expressing your feelings. You might experience restlessness, sudden urges, or impulses without a clear explanation.

Stay Grounded

If you don't currently have a clear direction, and strong emotions arise during an eclipse, stay calm. Take some time to reflect on what these feelings might be telling you. Trust that these feelings hold importance.

##Generational Shift: From Earth to Air, We Can All Breathe

It happens to the best of us. We start hearing those around us, maybe even ourselves sometimes, grumbling about the younger generation. "They use such strange words these days," or "Their work ethic just isn't the same." I get it. I'm nearing 50 myself, and surrounded by a wave of brilliant young colleagues and people in their 20-30s. They have their own lingo ("sending," "slaps," "snatched") and their unique ways of tackling work ("quiet quitting," "chaotic working"). It's easy to feel like we're speaking different languages.

Here's the thing: it's not that they're weird, it's that they're experiencing a whole new world. I remember hearing similar laments from those older than me when I was younger. Maybe it's because, astrologically speaking, there's a shift happening. Those of us approaching 50 grew up in a more grounded, "Earth era" kind of way. The younger generation? They're the rising "Air era," all about communication, innovation, and flexibility.

This isn't a reason to build a generational wall, but rather a bridge. Instead of dismissing their ways as strange, let's see it as an evolution. Their experiences, shaped by a global pandemic no less, are informing their communication styles and work preferences. Perhaps we can learn from their adaptability and embrace new approaches. Maybe they can learn from our experience and build upon it.

The key is understanding, not judgement. Let's open the door to communication. We can all learn from each other and create a more inclusive and dynamic work environment. After all, a place of work, or even society as a whole, that thrives embraces change, not resists it. Let's bridge the gap and breathe together in this new era.

[soospiritualjourney]

Hello Spring, Hello Astrological New Year!

It's that magical time again! The days are growing longer, the air is buzzing with anticipation, and a fresh start awaits. March 21st 2024 marks not only the official arrival of spring (vernal equinox), but also the beginning of Aries season and the astrological new year. Let's dive into what this powerful period holds and how you can harness its energy for the next nine months!

Unleashing Your Inner Spark: Owning Your Greatness (April-June)

Just like the first buds pushing through the earth, Aries season ignites a fire within us. It's a time to embrace your individuality and step into your power. Don't let self-doubt dim your inner light. The Star (rx) card appearing in my cosmic spread for you is a gentle nudge to recognize your inherent talents and beauty. Think of this initial phase as a test run. Soon, you'll be led closer to your moment to shine.

Welcome Change with Open Arms: Embracing the Tower (July-September)

The Tower card often signifies sudden, unexpected change. This isn't a reason to panic. Think of it as a cosmic renovation project. The old, shaky structures in your life are being shaken loose to make way for something stronger and more fulfilling. See these upheavals as opportunities to identify areas that need improvement. Is your career path no longer inspiring? Are your relationships feeling stagnant? Use this time to rebuild on a more solid foundation.

Planting Seeds for Success: The 7 of Pentacles (October-December)

As the year progresses, the energy shifts towards cultivating your potential. The 7 of Pentacles represents dedication, perseverance, and the promise of a bountiful harvest. There lies opportunities to hone your skills, develop your courage, and steadfastly pursue your goals. Remember, nothing worth its weight in gold is ever easy. The effort you put in now will be rewarded later.

Embrace the Journey: It Won't Always Be Smooth Sailing

I drew one more card for what we can look to as the year draws to a close. The Magician (rx) appeared and whispers a cautionary tale – sometimes, our initial plans don't quite unfold as expected. But fret not! This isn't a dead end; it's a course correction. and urges us to reflect. It's time to check in with your inner self. Are you taken on too much? Have you honed the skills needed to navigate challenges? Embrace this period as a chance for introspection, learning, and responsible action. By acknowledging your limitations and actively developing your strengths, you'll be perfectly positioned to conquer anything the next astrological year throws your way.
