This is the "Care and feeding
of a New World Age" report for Gregorian date of January 12th 2014
for 1 - man-eek" in the
Mayan Tzolkin calendar, also the Cancer full moon, and the Sun moving into Aquarius.
January
12th 2014 is 1 - man-eek" which carries the
themes of service, healing, protection and sacrifice, intuitive and instinctual
knowledge, the four directions, shamanic energy, ritual dance, dignity,
respect, and breaking free of limitations. The
ritual Deer Dance symbolizes the sanctity and balance between people and
nature. The energy of Deer is to rise up above the limitations of living a life
only on the physical plane. This is a time to connect with spirituality though
ceremony, dance, ritual and being in nature. It is also a time to find the
strength to break free of anything limiting spiritual growth and healing.
Before I get into the daily energy for Deer,
on the 12th all the planets
appear to move forward from our vantage point on Earth except Venus and Jupiter,
which appear to move retrograde or in reverse motion. I've discussed in depth the implications of
the other planets moving retrograde in past reports, so I'll just keynote each
one. Venus retrograde
in Capricorn brings the planet of esthetics, romance,
and money to remain in the sign of the goat-fish for four months. Venus is retrograde from the Winter Solstice December 21st,
at 28 and change almost 29 degrees of Capricorn
until January 31st at 13 Capricorn, which will be the time when we will notice
events related to our relationships and/or money that shifts our thinking to
prepare us for the change we will implement after Venus is direct. Also Venus retrograde
brings people from our past pulling at our heartstrings. Jupiter
was the king of the gods, and the planet is about good fortune, opportunities,
faith, religion, beliefs and expansion. Cancer is about family, home,
nurturing, and protection. Mostly what I find with Jupiter retrograde, as with
any retrograde cycle there is a review of the past, and with Jupiter what gets
reviewed are missed opportunities. In Cancer these are likely to be related to
home and family. When I think of these two retrogrades in concert in January,
we may have folks reviewing their past relationships for missed opportunities.
Because Venus also rules money we'll be reviewing past financial dealings with
an eye for choices that did not work out as planned. Overall something from the
past needs to be resolved as we are moving into a nine month in numerology in
February, whether it's love relationships, or financial connections, and in
Capricorn, we need to be committed to our resolution. This is a push to tie up
loose ends as we move into 2014 and a new season with Venus retrograde. Overall
I think the trap to watch out for is regret. The past is the past, so let go of
regrets and try not to waste much thought on whether someone who has dumped you
in the past, regrets their choice. I think those without regrets tend to be
shallow people and if you were tossed aside by one of them, they probably did
you a favor, but with Mars in Libra, some will aggressively pursue those
partners that they regret losing.
With
one inner planet Venus and one outer planet Jupiter retrograde, I thought I'd take this time to
discuss the mechanics of retrograde planets. I originally created this diagram
to demonstrate how planets appear to move in reverse. It is not drawn to scale
and uses the tropical system, but I believe it will be helpful to our
understanding. The circles represent the planets'
orbits around the Sun and the lines originating at the Earth represent
the astrological divisions of the signs as
observed from the Earth. The positions of the planets and the signs of the
zodiac are set for January 12th. First we can see that as the Earth moves in
its orbit, counter clockwise in this diagram, the Sun appears to move through
the astrological signs in order. During a time period when a planet is said to
be in direct motion it appears to move counter clockwise relative to the
astrological reference points. The further a planet is away from the Sun the
larger its orbit. With Mercury and Venus we can
see that when their orbit is closer to the Earth and between the Earth and the
Sun, they appear to move in reverse, clock wise, relative to the zodiac from the perspective
here on Earth. In the diagram Venus is at 20 degrees
Capricorn as it appears to be moving retrograde from the Earth and
prepares to enter the backside of its orbit where it will be said to be moving
direct on January 31st. Mercury is approaching
its turning point where it will appear to move backwards or retrograde during
February. The planets outside the Earth's orbit, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus,
Neptune, and Pluto appear to move in reverse as the Earth passes them on its
inner track. If we use a line tangent to the arc
of the Earth's orbit and move it as the Earth moves, we can see that the
leading edge of the line shows where an outer planet appears to move retrograde
and following edge shows where the planet appears to move direct again. Jupiter will turning direct on March 6th at 10
degrees Cancer. Mars and Saturn in March and Pluto in April
will be the next outer planets to turn retrograde.
Ok let's look
at the daily vibrational energy for this trecena. January 12th 2014 is 1 - man-eek" : unity experienced through being of service to others, as the
Gemini Moon is stimulated by Uranus and supported by Mars which moves from pleasant
yet restless energy that desires emotional excitement to later bringing the
energy for asserting
ourselves in a positive manner and standing our ground if necessary. The
13th is 2 - Lamat "la-maught" or Star or Rabbit: duality experienced through being grateful for abundant relationships,
as the Cancer Moon makes no major aspects which is a good day to take it easy
and enjoy home and family. January 14th is 3 - Muluc "moo-luke"
or Offering: taking action through appreciating creation, while the Moon in Cancer finds
support from Neptune, is challenged by Uranus, and opposed by Pluto which
brings a day which shifts from fantasies and daydreams distracting us from
accomplishing routine tasks, to later people likely to act hasty and jump to
conclusions, and finally brings deep emotions rising to the surface. The 15th
is 4 - Oc "awk"
or Dog: stability through enjoying family and friends, while we
experience the Cancer Full
Moon with the moon at
25 almost 26 degrees Cancer, merging with Jupiter, challenged by
Mars, opposed by Venus and the Sun, and supported by Saturn. These transits
underscore the themes of good feelings and generosity towards others, with the
potential for people to be irritable and have needless disputes, pleasant energy for enjoying sensual
experiences and rich food with a caution against overindulgence, having
a sober realistic view of life, leading up to the full moon's time of tension
as the Sun in Capricorn is about work, career, who we are in the outer world
trying to find balance with home, nurturing and our inner emotional world
represented by the Moon in Cancer, which forms a t-square with Mars in Libra at the head, in a
90 degree angle with the Moon opposite the Sun and Venus. This is a powerful full
moon for a number of reasons as we try to balance our irritability with our
generosity, our desire for pleasure with our realistic view of our world, and
most importantly our careers with our home life. January
16th is 5 - Chuen "shoe-in" or Monkey: empowerment through creating something new, with Venus squaring Mars which
tends to arouse interest in the opposite sex that is physical and perhaps
sexual in nature, but this energy can also lead to discord if there are hidden
tensions in a relationship. Healthy relationships should not have difficulties
during this transit, whose function is to test the pairing. It's basically
about on one side engaging in what's pleasurable for you and your partner and
on the other side where are the tensions that lead to disputes that come from
unexpressed sexuality. The amount of love energy will determine which way the
dice will fall. This creates difficulty for couples trying to keep interactions
nice and easy, while not expressing the drives that Mars is known for.
Relationships begun under this transit tend to be based only on physical
attraction, as the Leo Moon makes no major angles which brings another
day where we should rest and take the time to integrate the changing energies
we are experiencing. The 17th is 6 - Eb "eb" or Road: being in the flow
through serving your community, as we
have Mercury sextile Uranus, which
brings new discoveries and new people into our
lives with an overall sense of excitement and
innovation as Mercury interacts with its higher octave planet Uranus.
Flexibility is helpful to experience this transit with its excitement and
interest, if you find this disruptive you may want to examine your attitude
regarding deviating from the preordained plan of the day. This is good for
looking at old problems that have troubled you in the past with fresh eyes. Challenges
may be approached as new puzzles to solve as thinking becomes more inspired.
Not a day where you will be content to follow your usual routine, so leave some
room for spontaneity with new ideas and experiences being the reward of going
with the flow. Also
on the 17th the Moon in Leo finds support from Uranus, is opposed by
Mercury, and stimulated by Mars, which gives us an emotional wave that moves
from having the impulse to engage in activities that make us feel more alive
along with some feeling a real conflict between feelings and reason and others
having fruitful expressions of their deeper awareness either internally or with
another, and then later brings the desire to work independently from others. January
18th is 7 - Ben
"ben" or Reed or Corn: reflection through maintaining the home, while the
Leo Moon is challenged by Saturn at 3:51 am EST, which brings people feeling lonely or isolated,
and then is Void Of Course until going into Virgo at 8:23 pm EST, during which
time it's best to avoid making major decisions or purchases. The 19th is 8 Ix "eesh" or Jaguar: balance through enjoying nature, as the Sun enters into Aquarius which
shifts the focus to social consciousness, while being true to our individuality
to share our inventive ideas with groups and communities. This is a future
oriented sign of innovation which often comes from being unorthodox in thinking, while the Virgo Moon is opposed
by Neptune, supported by Pluto, and in harmony with Jupiter. The day's
emotional energy moves from feeling sensitive emotionally but confused
regarding the accuracy of what's being felt, to later bringing out intense
emotions and stimulating sensitivity, which also favors sexual relationships,
and finally feeling in the flow and having a sense of wholeness. January 20th is 9 - Men
"men" or Eagle:
patience experienced through seeing
from a higher perspective, while the Moon in Virgo finds
support from Venus and harmonizes with Saturn which moves from enjoying social
interactions with others to later wanting to be alone in our thoughts and
feelings. The 21st is 10 - Cib "keeb" or Wisdom: manifestation
through introspection, meditation and
forgiveness, with the Libra Moon finding support from the Sun
which influences people to have a sense of harmony within ourselves and
supports any type of group activity and relationships with the opposite sex. January
22nd is 11 - Caban "kah-ban" or Earth: resolution through gratitude for Mother Earth, while the
Moon in Libra is opposed by Uranus, challenged by Pluto, Jupiter, and Venus, finds
support from Mercury, and merges with Mars. Emotionally this day has a lot of
twists and turns beginning with folks being emotionally excitable and impulsive, then having
the compulsion to act in ways that may not be good for us in the long run,
which shifts to benevolent and generous feelings for those in our immediate
environment, then later having pleasant energy to be with friends and loved
ones, followed by feeling in touch with our emotions and expressing them to
others, and finally experiencing irritable moods and critical communications. The
23rd is 12 - Etznab "etz-nob" or Flint: understanding through being introspective, while the Scorpio
Moon is finding support from Neptune which causes our
innermost subconscious fantasies and daydreams to confuse reality, which may
not be great for accomplishing much work. January 24th is 13 - Cauac "cow-ack" or Storm: movement to the
next stage through recognizing
the gifts in adversity, while we have Mercury trine Mars which is good for mental work, with more energy than usual
and the willingness to tackle difficult problems. People will be speaking their
minds, not to get into fights, but to get their ideas out into the open. This
transit brings confidence of expressing beliefs without fear of letting others
know where you stand. This can also bring a certain boldness and innovativeness
to plans made at this time. While the last quarter Moon in
Scorpio challenged by the Sun, in harmony with Pluto and Venus, and finding support
from Jupiter moves us from encountering challenges to our daily routines, to experiencing
deep emotions on a profound level along with people having a pleasant sense of
wellbeing, and finally having pleasant energy to be with friends and loved
ones.
So no matter what energies are affecting you
during this 1 Deer trecena, take some time to be in the flow of the planet by
being in nature, watching a sunrise or sunset, communing with the stars, being
conscious of the moment through introspection, meditation or being with someone
you love. Every day is a blessing no matter what dramas beckon to distract us.
We are all giving the performance of a life time on this world stage, just take
some time to observe the play as well as act your part. Remember you are a
spiritual being having a human experience.

and wish to make this service available to the greatest amount of folks, so
I’ve created three options with three levels of compensation. These readings
are designed to provide information to help you navigate these difficult times.
At the basic level we will look at your human design chart to help you
understand how to use your individual strategy and authority in making life
decisions based on your unique design. I include the next three months of
astrological transits as they relate to your natal and progressed astrology
charts, along with the human design reading at the middle level. At the top
level the human design and astrological transit reading will be recorded and
sent to you as an MP3 file to be downloaded to your computer. So if you've been
thinking about getting a reading, please contact me, as I would like to provide
you a reading during these uncertain times. You will need to be able to either
call me in Maine in the U.S.A. or connect with Skype to receive your reading.
