Pisces, Lent, Purification, Preparation and Saving Humanity
We continue in the oceanic waters of Pisces. We are in the time of preparation called “lent.” Each sign prepares us for the next sign. Aquarius (air) prepared us for Pisces (water) prepares us for Aries (fire). Together Pisces and Aries create a steamy misty mix that promises new realities (spring). The Neptune waters of Pisces are presently dissolving what is no longer useful so the Age of Aquarius can bring forth a new kingdom (the Soul) filled with love, wisdom, unity, light, compassion, Right Relations and Right Action (Soul qualities and virtues. Pisces is symbolized spiritually as religion, devotion and prayers, purification and sacrifice. These are the tools we use during Lent.
This year Lent (time of purification) occurs in Pisces, ending at Palm Sunday (Passion Week begins), March 19/20, as Sun enters Aries. Lent calls us to cultivate Soul qualities. It is a time of instilling new rhythms on the personality and a time of focused preparation…for Easter and the Aries full moon festival (Resurrection Festivals), the first of the three Spring Festivals. In the Bible it is written that Christ (Archangel from the star Sirius, where love originates) entered the desert (wilderness) for forty days and forty nights in order to learn how to use his Archangelic (Sirius) body on Earth. He was perfecting and preparing Himself for his Earth “mission.” Christ’s mission? The almost unbearably difficult work of “saving humanity”, the task of all Pisces. Let us, help them (Pisces). Let us see ourselves in the desert with the Christ during Lent. Let us prepare together.
ARIES: Have you noticed feeling more intuitive, sensitive, Inspired or insightful? Are there nightly dreams, daily visions? Prayer, meditation, study, retreats are good for you at this time, allowing more gentleness to emerge providing you with reflective and compassionate caring. These help when you’re placed within Aquarian groups, when asked to be the leader and invited to visit the future. When the world calls you.
TAURUS: You have one task – to focus on health, tend to bones and joints, take more calcium and magnesium and B complex, and be careful not to become cold. You must use your enlightened practicality to care for yourself with more focus. As more and more seek your help you will have to weigh what’s best – leading everyone into the future, or nursing your physical body back to perfect health. Study Functional medicine.
GEMINI: Something beneficent, benevolent and bountiful happens between you and the world, between you and your work and profession. You’re inspired, encouraged and guided internally. With careful study, years of preparation, and viewing the past in terms of your talents and gifts, pathways open, choices are seen, commitments are made, and abundance settles within the 12-petaled lotus of our heart. Draw this lotus.
CANCER: A new and different focus of thoughtfulness has come into you’re your life. It makes you feel kind and generous and for the first time in a long time, you feel the ability to tend to all things “home”. There’s a new exploration into a study, a culture, a time, a person or a reality unknown to you before. Something changes your inner life. You enter into happiness. You make peace with the past.
LEO: Observe yourself becoming more perceptive and wise, more intuitive and enlightened in terms of others’ needs, especially those you work with. Someone, something or some communications helps you shift into a deeper awareness of spiritual realities. This comes through intimacy, money, resources and/or dreams. And nature. Spring calls to you. Love heals you. Bring that love into the light. And then tend to taxes.
VIRGO: You will relate better and better with others, especially those close to you. They will bloom and flourish, increase, thrive and prosper. You find yourself being a greater support to others, offering guidance and compassionate understanding where needed. These will nourish your heart always filled with new realities. Create a new journal of what inspires you.
LIBRA: Think about what you want to be doing daily…career, occupation, work, artistry, gardens, vocation you truly and deeply need (want) to pursue. If you don’t know, ask yourself. The answers will subtly appear. Talk to everyone about your hopes, dreams and wishes. In the coming year your health greatly improves, you become stronger and more resilient. Canaries, cats and fish are good pets for Libra. What flowers will you plant this year?
SCORPIO: Careful taking risks with your money and resources. Instead consider the new economy (of Sharing) and begin to live “as if” that economy has arrived. Each person in this new economy brings forth his or her gifts. Gifts that everyone can use. Gifts that prosper everyone. What would your gifts be? Know the future will be much different than what we’re used to. Study greenhouses, biologic architecture and communities around the world.
SAGITTARIUS: Very serious ideas flow through your mind. Sometimes there is a sense of fear. You want to return home. At other times you experience a sense of euphoria. It’s important to live near a body of water. Or even in a desert previously covered with water. Wherever you are, the land is kind to you. To create a new sense of nourishment for yourself, do only what you love, surround yourself with beauty till the next phase of your life appears.
CAPRICORN: Notice your thinking becomes happy, optimistic even in the midst of life question and concern the emotions and behaviors of others. You will shift from happiness to concern to knowing you must begin at all time with intentions for Goodwill. You may not feel goodwill but have Goodwill intentions anyway. Goodwill helps you help others who have lost their way. Begin writing (journaling, blogging). You have important thoughts and ideas to share.
AQUARIUS: This coming year continues to be different for you. Needs will be met through different and varied sources. That means more attention is needed for the well-being of your physical body, emotions and mind. Notice that you are already living in the Sharing Society. You are its forerunner. All Aquarians are forerunners. What feels like limitations are actually vital, life giving yet hidden blessings Give thanks daily.
PISCES: They say that good fortune, sunshine, blessings, grace and beauty follow you this year. Self-confidence and a new sense of self-identity will flourish. It’s important to follow your visions and dreams. It’s important to maintain all responsibilities and obligations, to tithe generously and consistently, and be careful with the intake of foods. Create a daily rhythm of living. It sustains the life of all fishes. Create a Journal of Inspiration. Placing in the journal all that inspires you.
