█ Transit recap █
► ***Sun: Aquarius: GK 13 (Feb 1st - 7th) Listening through love. Shadow of Discord, Gift of Discernment and the Essence of Empathy.
► Venus is in her retrograde shadow as of Jan 28th.
She enters Retrograde on 3/2 in Gatekey 21 (Control.
She goes Direct on 4/12 in GateKey 36 (Crisis / Compassion), leaves retrograde shadow and moves on into new energies 5/2 into Gate 51 (Shock/Initiation).
►I'd say Mars and Venus are going through a dance right now that is inviting us into deeper growth curves around Compassionate Leadership.
(I say this because Mars hit Gatekey 31 (Arrogance & Leadership) and went into its journey and Venus hit Gatekey 35 (Crisis & Compassion) and is heading into its journey. Mars will be on its journey for almost 6 months, Venus will be in it's for almost 4 months this time around.
► There's a Stellium in Pisces featuring North Node, Venus, Neptune and Saturn. These are mostly happening at the last degrees of Pisces, meaning the end of the Zodiac wheel! These planets are looking at a lot right now.... individually and collectively.
North Node... Direction
Venus... Love/values
Neptune...Dreams/infatuations/illusions
Saturn...Limitations/structures
► We are dancing with the North Node in Pisces - what we are moving towards (Gatekey 36 Crisis to Compassion). With the South Node in Virgo - what we are shifting away from collectively - (Gatekey 6 Friction to Diplomacy). (Jan 31st the Nodes shift GateKeys into 36 North Node and 6 South Node.)
► Mars Retrograde: Cancer (19 degrees): GK 53 (Shadow of immaturity, gift of expansion, supported by the Essence of Superabundance.) Leaves Retrograde Feb 23rd and continues forward in gate 53 and then on into 62 and then on into its 'forward visible motion' as of 5/2.
► Uranus just went Direct from its Retrograde (1/30) still in GateKey 23 (Complexity to Simplicity - Assimilation, It's dilemma is based in there being a correct Timing for things and how when we aim for Accumulation it can lead us to a place of Scarcity. Where we are Victims of Complexity. A key point here is to remember that we each have ways of breaking information down to understand it, one person's spin/perspective is likely to be different then anothers - no matter how close you may be - have patience, be kind, this 'shake up to wake up' is helping us, (even if doesn't feel like it in the moment).
►We also still have Chiron in Aries 19 degrees - in Gatekey 51 (Shock & Initiation). (March 4th it will shift to Gate 42 - still in Aries)
