Neptune and Mars Retrograde, illusions about rape

 

Neptune Turns RETROGRADE June 13 @ 1:42 pm PDT/4:42 pm EDT/ 8:42 pm GMT

indicating a reinventing, re-examination of our dreams, illusions, delusions, our addictions and creative projects until November 19th when Neptune turns DIRECT at 9 degrees PISCES square to the Fixed Star Antares- the rival of Mars.  Then there will be a lot of power to fight for our dreams. 

The chart for that moment shows a Very powerful YOD or what’s known as a Finger of God, Yes, like God’s finger pointing to MARS, Retrograde in SCORPIO sign of sex, money power and secrets, meaning this is what we need to pay attention to.

The YOD is comprised of URANUS, the God who stole Fire from the Gods, the revolutionary freedom loving planet who has joined forces with ERIS the Goddess of DISCORD, very powerfully at 23+ degrees ARIES. This is a major shit disturbing aspect.

The two are in a sextile {60 degrees} to The SUN @ 23 degrees GEMINI and Venus is also involved at 25 degrees GEMINI and these four “planets” SUN VENUS URANUS and ERIS are all pointing their finger at Mars Retrograde @ 23+ degrees SCORPIO.  

The first relevant story to reflect this intense energy is the Brock Turner rape story and the ridiculously lenient sentence he was given because he is white privileged boy. It has just come out that the vile guy will be out after only 3 months in Jail. 

RAPE of a Sabine by Giambologna in Florence Italy

I was guided to look for symbols for 24 degrees Aries I went through the Sabian symbols, John Sandbach’s symbols and finally found the Kozminsky symbols, not as well known but here is the revelation for that 24 degree of ARIES.

24º Aries: “A youth grasping a beautiful woman, who turns into a skeleton in his arms. Denotes one who may lose his way following his desires. He is highly passionate, and allows himself to be shaken by his senses as the wind shakes the autumn leaves. He is then apt to grow selfish, and to disregard the feelings and rights of others, with consequences bringing to him death, defeat, and disaster. It is a symbol of Illusion.”

AMAZING SYNCHRONICITY!

Also at this Neptune Retrograde  LILITH is at 2 degrees of Scorpio and on the Ascendant in Toronto. Lilith in SCORPIO is hell hath no fury like a woman raped.  Lilith in SCORPIO, the first woman, God’s left hand side and bride she is the DEATH GODDESS, like KALI, who will not compromise to any man and who knows her power as Divine Creatress of all, and who has nothing to do with Adam or any man who doesn’t respect her is rising in her power. 

The Goddess VENUS is in the LIGHT the power the strength of the SUN, exposing the Male shadows of rape, deceit, secrets, hatred and fear of the Goddess. ERIS is a warrior Goddess, the uninvited 13th and most powerful Fairy. As the Goddess, the Divine Feminine gathers her strength, there will be a global upswelling of women who are angry and will force re-education of men, a change in terms of how laws are used to protect the victims not the perpetrators. There are also good men, like the two Swedish men who stopped the rapist, who respect women and who know what is right and what is wrong. Jeff Brown, the Canadian writer wrote his apology to the Divine Feminine and is encouraging men to learn how to embrace honor and respect women. 

The ugly swaggering macho Donald Trump who is a racist and a sexist misogynist must be stopped and labelled the pig that he is and they are. CIRCE the Ancient Goddess and one who I have always felt very strongly connected to turned Ulysses men into real pigs for their own lower instincts.

Just discovered this after hitting Publish  600 witches collectively hexed Brock his father and the judge on Tuesday at 10:00 pm http://www.papermag.com/stanford-rapist-brock-turner-witch-hex-1849619850.html

Women must take back their own power.  Hillary Clinton as much as I do not like her politics, is still a woman taking power in the world and that carries a real and symbolic meaning. 

Mercury in Taurus now is governed by Venus. Women must proclaim their truth- Taurus rules the throat and they need to make their collective voices heard.  Saturn in SAGittarius at 12 degrees Retrograde, which rules higher education, judges, and the law, exactly squares Neptune now. With Jupiter, Planet of Higher law, sacred Law, in Virgo,who rules both Pisces and Sagittarius at the 15th and strongest degree, points our attention to woman and what we have harvested. Virgo is the Ancient Virgin Goddess, whole and complete unto herself under no man’s authority, the way it was from the beginning of time. 

The gap between what we imagine as a spiritual reverence for all life- Neptune in Pisces and the reality- Saturn in Sagittarius squared by Jupiter in Virgo- also keeping it real- can be shocking! We have been asleep with Neptune in Pisces and are waking up after thousands of years of patriarchal abuse to fight the good fight and rebalance our world so that the Sacred marriage can become real.. 

Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune are still in the Mutable GRAND CROSS with Venus and the SUN. The Goddess Venus/Inanna the Great Queen is still in her dark phase behind the SUN and she is preparing for her rebirth as an evening star and will be visible from behind the Sun in early August as the beautiful evening Wishing Star again.

While Mars Retrograde in Scorpio is at the Apex of this Finger wagging Yod we see again the full extent of the secret cabals of power.  The judge who gave the lenient sentence to Brock now has half a million signatures calling for his resignation. 

The battle between the sexes is getting stronger. Many new masculine men know their place to honor the feminine and to re-educate overly testosterone driven men into honoring the Goddess to earn her love. Fathers must also teach their sons to respect women. The whole culture needs to change. That is what URANUS and ERIS. are bringing. We take for granted all the ways woman are seen as objects of sexual gratification for men, because there has been indoctrination for thousands of years sanctioned by religion.  What do you think?

Mars in Cancer, internal battles Astrology by Tara Greene

MARS enters Cancer June 24 @6:33 am PDT/ 9:33 am EDT – August 8th. 8 8

Mars is Masculine energy, action, raw testosterone, the warrior, desire, sex, competition, rape, anger, aggression, initiator, Ruler of Aries and Scorpio. 

CANCER is the Mother, womb, Feminine,the Goddess, Mother Mary,, Demeter, Gaia, Ceres, all Mother Goddesses, water, wells, nurturing, nourishment, emotions, security, home, children  receptivity, Ruled by the Moon.

Mars in Cancer symbolizes the Warrior returns Home to the Goddess.

This is a time of Masculine cleansing and purification, where the warrior takes off his armor and surrenders into the unconditionally loving arms of the Mother Goddess Archetype of his own Anima, his own  soul or to a woman. The son comes home to the Mother, to his roots, his female ancestors, to be nurtured, nourished and held safe after being at War in the world and within himself for the last five thousand years. Men in general are always suffering from PTSD whether they have actually been in war or not. The workforce is a very competitive battlefield for men and women. 

For women Mars in Cancer helps them to raise their Feminine energies, be strong women. They can work with their own inner Animus, their inner warrior, who acts in the world on the behalf of feminine desires. Most women are very masculine these days, they don’t know about being strong and Feminine at the same time especially if they have never had children.

Mars in Cancer is also  repressed anger and rage. We are seeing this well up and spill over in the U.S. these days. 

Mars is weak in Cancer, there can be fear to move, to act. The U.S. and Canada and many other countries are Cancer Sun. the action will be sluggish. Positively Peace treaty time hopefully? Use this time to reflect and be receptive and wait..like a pregnant woman..This is not be the best time to make big moves. 

The Goddess energies are returning and the movement of men who embrace and serve the Goddess is getting stronger every day. Words from Jeff Brown from Apologies to the Divine Feminine from a warrior in transition from 2010 – see link for full article below:

 “I am grateful for Grandmother, for no one saw my tenderness more clearly. I am grateful for Mother, for choosing to bring me into being and for nourishing my body until I could find my feet. I am grateful for Mother Earth, for grounding my expansion and enlivening my spirit. I am grateful for the Divine Mother, the real Mother of us all. I now feel her divine presence, so close. Fiercely compassionate, she was always right here, breathing life into me, holding me safe. I sit in her lap as she breathes me.”

The warriors need to lay down their arms and to surrender, like the

Hanged Man in the Tarot, TRUMP # 12  your Card of the DAY

Napoleon Brousseau
Hanged Man 2012 oil painting  

Men need to become Knights in shining arm, defending and integrating Feminine values and this is what Mars in Cancer will teach them to do. Men need to defend the women, protect them, the children and FEMININE rights, and have freedom to express their own feelings fully. Yes big boys Do cry.  “I fight for beauty”- Daario Naharis from Game of Thrones.

 Mars in Cancer governs the stomach, so much desire to stuff those feelings. The battle of the bulge will be on.  Tummies will be ultra sensitive to any emotional and food upsets. Attract someone by cooking for them. The desire to reunite with family is also strong and favoured.

Mars in CANCER –

Cancer governs the 4th house traditionally and that house/sign holds the key to your actual physical birth and pre-birth, to your relationship with your Mom, your early childhood, your roots, foundation, the Unconscious, your womb experiences. Any unconscious, shadow material will be activated by Mars in Cancer making you angry and lash out spontaneously. Perhaps it was your mother who was the aggressive, angry, repressed anger, dangerous one. This would be a great time to do some deep therapy work as Mars rules SCORPIO sign of psychotherapy. With Saturn at those fated last degrees of Scorpio, Mars adds ease and emphasis to accessing your ancient buried emotional treasure trove lying in your knotted up guts.

For many the idea of going home is scary as it was/is a battle zone. But this is the optimum time to heal those wounds. This may be a tumultuous time as Mars aggravates family feuds. Mars in Cancer is literally fire in water, so with the droughts in California and elsewhere, expect to see battles over water rights, and the oceans, also wetter weather.

MEANING

Surrender your ego posturing, your defenses, your need to fight and be right. Let go and allow. Honor your Feminine side, your intuition and feelings which are always clear. Positive warrior battles will take the form of  being soldiers of Love, supporting women and children, cook-offs, eating contests. 

Where is the Sign of CANCER in your natal chart? That is where the action is. Remember we are all family.  A lot of water therapy is good, releasing in hot baths with epsom salts. Drink lots of water. Sex in water is also favored. Have a water birth.

I will write Mars aspects later.

The crying game – Boy George 

We Are Family Sister Sledge 1979 

Look back, Retrograde Rehab map from Tara Greene

“Don’t look back” is  the famous advice for Lot’s wife from Soddom & Gomorah and to Orpheus ascending from Hades with Eurydice. Also the name of a famous Bob Dylan documentary film.

But we are definitely meant to LOOK BACK now. That’s what RETROGRADE planets are all about. Look back and learn what you didn’t get already. OK?

We’re going to be initiated into a LOT of REtrograde planetary actions.

Orpheus and Eurydice by George Frederic Watts  c. 1867

Retro isn’t just throwback fashion styles. Everything that starts with RE is IN.

Like REHAB.

Remember what Amy Winehouse  infamously said. Rob Ford denied, and many other addicts recently in the news. Whether Cory Monteith,Philip Seymour Hoffman, the Beibs not quite yet there or Selena Gomez ..

Here’s the REHASH…

We’re just finished a Venus Retrograde. DID YOU Learn new old love lessons?

 

Mercury is Retrograde now till Feb. 28  Don’t initiate, double-check all commuinque’s.

Jupiter is still Retrograde in CANCER till March 6. Old family issues….

MARS turns RETROGRADE- ass backwards March 1st until May 19.  At 27 + degrees LIBRA  where he turns Retro, this is only 2 degrees from the powerful April 15 TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE degree of 25 Libra.

From Feb 8- 13 Mars will be crossing those Libra points so set your intentions NOW for what you want to catalyze at the TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE  on April 15, although Mars will be Retrograde.

PAY ATTENTION if you have planets, Ascendant or other angles affected by these 23-27 degrees Libra points. It’ll take till July 16- 23 for those 23-27 degrees of Libra to fully light up when Mars is direct again.  

Remember Mars Rules the sign ARIES and SCORPIO. Those seven months in Libra and especially during the Retrograde period really wreaks havoc for Rams and Scorpions.  

Mars is Retro for 11 weeks. That means NO MO ACTION FORWARDS. No amount of VIAGRA or CIALIS will get him up.

Mars in LIBRA is already feeling wimped out. The warrior spends from December 7, 2013- July 25 2014 in Venus’s sign, getting revamped about how to treat women as equals. He learns to receive beauty, poise and love lessons. He is cross dressing, like Desmond he “stays at home and does his pretty face.”

Canadian Author  Jeff Brown has led the way. He writes the apologies of men for raping, disparaging, hating, fearing, controlling women for the last 5,000 years.  On some level that IS the big lesson of MARs in LIBRA.

Equally women also must step up to claim their equality on all the world’s stages. ALso equal rights for gay marriages.

Mars in LIBRA is the scales of JUSTICE, of KARMA.

Aries, Scorpio you pay attention. You may get into legal troubles. 

We are being weighed in the cosmic BALANCE. The Masculine must stop raping the earth’s resources, animals, people, men and women. Fairness, Justice, peace, beauty, harmony is what MARS in LIBRA seeks. More like the Knights of King Arthur’s times. The Masculine bows down to protect the Feminine if she needs, he is honor bound, respectful, ethical. 

SATURN goes Retro just after Mars, MARCH 2 @ 23+ degrees SCORPIO til July 20@ 16 degrees.

The planets  Retrograde TIMETABLE

PLUTO April 14 at 13 + degrees Capricorn- September 22 at 11 degrees 00.

MERCURY 2nd RETROGRADE  from June 7 @ 3 + degrees CANCER- July 1 @ 24 degrees GEMINI.

MERCURY 3rd Retro-October 4 @ 2+ degrees SCORPIO -Oct 25 @ 16 degrees LIBRA.

NEPTUNE goes Retro- June 9 @ 7+ degrees PISCES til November 15 @ 4 + degrees.

URANUS goes Retro July 21 @  16+ degrees ARIES til Dec. 21 @ 12 + degrees.

JUPITER 2nd Retrograde Dec 8 @ 22+ degrees LEO- April 8 2015 .

MARK those dates down on your calendar.

If the planets Retrograde over your personal planets then you will feel the lesson especially hard.
