**All times Pacific :: All points Tropical**
We had a chance to sit and reflect, now it’s time to get moving again
For the last few days ((September 25th-30th)), we’ve experienced a rarity in 2025. A week without strong planetary transits. Don’t get me wrong, we are still under the influence of reality altering energy ((as seen by the configuration of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto)) but the 26th-30th was relatively quiet.
Quiet doesn’t mean easy, especially with the speed of evolution facing human consciousness. If anything, the downtimes are when ‘it all catches up to us’. This period has been a bit of a check in. How did you fare?
This isn’t a pass/fail situation, just notes from the universe letting you know what needs attention. Practices of personal awareness and reflection tend to improve life for all of us. If we have been keeping up with ourselves, during the downtimes, we can actually relax and choose our own path. If we have been too busy, caught up in drama, using drugs or some other escape, then the downtimes get labored with psycho emotional homework.
One way or the other, we have to feel our feelings. We are on a journey to understand ourselves more deeply. Outer exploits are fun and offer magnificent nuance to this journey. The inner journey, however, will always take precedence.
So this week we step out of the ‘easeful’ or ‘not so easeful’ downtime and into something a bit more lively.
The major theme is Communicating Consciously.
Take a Look at Your Chart

This journey is one of bringing out your hidden gifts and talents. They may be slathered with some ‘less than desire-able energy’. This can be represented by feelings of doubt, judgement, anger, or confusion. I urge you to express your energy through movement. When you can’t exercise, write, sing, or chat with a friend. It’s okay to be who you are… convince yourself of this!
The transit of Mercury to Jupiter is already live as of late Monday the 29th. As we work our way into these shifts, do not be surprised if some new and shocking narratives develop in the public sphere. The higher aspect of these new ‘issues’ and ‘distractions’ is to force us to move on from our stagnancy. What happened two weeks ago just can’t fit into the discussion anymore.
The new things may feel a little overdone and sensational. Remember that the energy that we are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg, many more things are happening under the surface and they are far more important.
As a part of the great social awakening, your consciousness represents a key facet in this whole unfolding. When we get wrapped up in some story in the world, are we using it wisely?
Wednesday October 1st
- Mercury Square Jupiter 2:10 PM —>@22°34’ Libra / Cancer
- Attention is wanted but not exactly needed. Think back to the beginning of September and what was unfolding, you may see a similar situation but this time a little easier to communicate. Beware of overdoing everything. There might just be something you can’t offer any longer (perhaps for a short time, or maybe overall.
- Words have extra punch whether they are written or spoken. Things are being communicated that are connected to issues other than the one being discussed. This could be passive aggressive, circumvent that through journaling or practicing what you will say. Consider being on the receiving end of your own sentiments, words, and tone.
- Overall this is very positive, and you’ll get the most out of it when you speak from a calm place. When we hold back, we can only receive so much in return. Be vulnerable, be honest and stay centered. Reverberations can be hyper emotional, so share what you share and let the waves settle.
- Moon trine Uranus 3:05 PM —>@1°11’ Aquarius / Gemini
- Moon Conjunct Pluto 3:30 PM —>@1°24’ Aquarius
- Uranus…Anxiety builds to a crescendo and ideas are flying in every direction. Things break and settle in @ 3:30 PM. This is a good morning to occupy yourself with things that need to get done. If we haven’t been resting, there may be a need for an extra boost of energy to get through. Look to breath work, singing, dancing, laughing or meditation as opposed to stimulants.
- Pluto…Intensity settles in and breaks. New ideas and ventures are both bewildering and exciting. In order to change things we have to take some risks. If you aren’t ready to make the change, focus somewhere else. If something isn’t gonna work out, just take the loss.
- This is part of a fairly quick cycle of 7, 14, or 28 days, so you will get another chance to succeed or get things taken care of. If it can’t wait that long, get it done now.
Friday October 3rd
- Mercury opposite Eris 8:25 AM —>@25°19’ Libra / Aries
- Mercury opposite Chiron 11:05 AM —>@25°30’ Libra / Aries
- It can feel like the healing never ends. Wherever you look, there is another new vantage point and budding awareness. The majority of what is coming to the surface, there are no answers for. The healing is more about the approach. When things shock us or disturb us… how do we respond? Most situations are out of our hands, how do we handle this?
- People may find themselves fighting on the outside because they feel like garbage internally. Even if you live a healthy life, there are still parts of us that hold toxicity. When it releases, it can feel kinda gross. Take time to flush toxins out of your body with oxygen, meditation, and positive thinking. Fasting or a lighter diet may help during this time. Or, conversely, if you have been struggling to feed yourself, this is a great time to consume something you have been craving. Find the balance, and moderation in all things.
- The opportunity here is for unifying, healing, and coming together. The are numerous reasons to resist this, but none of them are good ones. Whether we feel shame, pride, or insecure… at some point these parts of us will be seen in full, might as well get to it and stop punishing everyone else for our emotional complexes.
- Venus conjunct South Node exact 2:05AM Saturday —>@18°14’ Virgo
- Getting rid of what we no longer need. This puts people pleasing as a target. Going beyond for others is a noble act, but we have to choose wisely. If something takes us off of our own path, it is best to walk away from it. From time to time, we must help those in need, but for the most of our existence, we need to pay attention to our own needs and desires.
- There is something to be learned about faith in this transit. Through trusting our bodies and wishes, we show faith in the universe that lives within us. Sometimes in order to be a better version of ourselves, we have to look lesser to others. Who is more important? You or them? In truth, we are all important, however it is up to us to hold our personal value. In doing so, we allow others to do the same.
- If you aren’t using something, get rid of it. If it doesn’t light you up, take a break from it.
- The body may be regulating itself, take breaks from consumption of all types and focus inward. Alone time is lovely, especially when taken in natural settings.
Looking forward…
October 6th —> Mercury enter Scorpio 9:45 AM
October 13th —> Venus enters Libra triggering Grand Trine
October 14th —> Pluto stations direct
October 22nd —> Neptune Rx back into Pisces
Remember who you are!
In all that is unfolding in the world, we are not required to partake. To consume information is to drink it in and thus, it infiltrates our very being. We are well within our rights as cosmic citizens to disengage from, deny, avoid, or disrupt any attempts to impress energy upon us. Our sovereignty is a birthright. Here on Earth, this universal law has been compromised. We need not elucidate upon the reasons as we are sure that you may observe them quite easily. Whatever the motives, human beings have forgotten that they are free to do as they choose. With will power and sense of self beaten down at birth and throughout childhood, members of the human community feel obligated to participate in crudely outlined forms of existence. Mass movements lead to disempowered individuals. You are here to be yourself. When an individual defines themselves through social constructs, movements and identities, they are put an end to the display of their divine nuance. We ask that you reconsider your affiliations. If you could see your higher selves, you would understand how frustrating it is to put restrictions on your soul’s expression. Remember that the brain is listening and the body responds. Your words have immense power, and every thought is an important announcement to yourself.
Do you really think that your soul has a political, religious, national, or dietary affiliation?
Open up your eyes, the lies are more common than the truth. Where there is pressure to choose a side… walk away. Where you have defined yourself with a group of people… back away. The cosmos are aligning to have us open our eyes and be repositioned. Let go of your ideas about what you are, so that you may open to see what you can actually be.
