planetary alignment From: [email protected] Date: 10/27/01 Time: 12:23 PM

Comments someone told me that nov.2nd was a day to be aware of regarding travel and being in shopping malls, is there anything to this regarding the alignment of planets?

Hi Karen,

There is a lot of misinformation flying around. It may have been prompted by the Pluto Saturn opposition that was lining up around Nov 2 and Jupiter stationing Retrograde at the same time.

Here is some of what I shared about the Pluto Saturn opposition and it certainly does bring up fears for us to look at and then ideally transform.

This took place Nov 1 or Nov 2 depending on where you are in the world....Pluto (14 Sagittarius) reaches its second exact opposition with retrograde Saturn (14 Gemini) today. This is an intensive timing in the Taurus Full Moon window aligning with the Samhain cross-quarter of the Celtic New Year. This month is the time when the veils between the worlds are thinnest and accessing other worlds happens more easily. Pluto assists Saturn in breaking down the old limiting structures, old limiting beliefs and old limiting attachments to the mind, that restrict the full experience of our true selves. Pluto calls up our deepest fears from the depths of our being, it brings to the surface the most terrifying repressed shadow elements within us for the purpose of transforming them. The transformational process is intended to empower the truth of who we are and how we express in the world. Consciously acknowledging and embracing our fears, our misconceptions, our mis-use or even non-use of power that has limited and disempowered our experience, and then releasing these shadowed elements into the transformational cauldron helps facilitate the ultimate empowerment and conscious expression of who we truly are. This is a challenging process that tests our commitment to living life fully. It may even call us to consciously and courageously die to all that no longer serves so that we can live our greatest truth and purpose.

And... finally... what do people think about what I understand to be the movement of these fixed stars out of Taurus, Scorpio and Aquarius (into Gemini, Sagitarrius and Pisces) (although maybe I misunderstand what that's about......)

The signs are moving through the constellations at the rate of about 1 degree every 72 years. This may be one good argument for using the one degree orb influence of fixed stars. Since the three of the four royal stars are well into the mutable signs this is not a new development. Fomalhaut has been in the sign of Pisces for over 200 years. Antares and Aldebaran have been in Sag/Gemini for over 700 years. According to my Star Chart program Regulus is still at 29 degrees and 49 minutes of Leo. The shift of signs through the constellations represent the seasonal shifts through the constellations over a 26,000 year period. The fact that the Solstice and Equinox points are now lining up on the boundaries of the constellations of the Scorpion (Winter Solstice), Waterbearer (Spring Equinox, Bull (Summer Solstice), and Lion (Autumnal Equinox) due to their precession (or backwards movement through the constellations) seems monumentally important in alerting us to the emerging new times. From the perspective of Shamanic Astrology, the mutable signs are archetypally linked to different forms of service to spirit. One thought is that energies of the royal stars it seems have entered or are entering a time of a renewed spiritual service to humanity and all of life. Any other thoughts on this??
