The Gathering Place ( Modalities of Divination )
#Art: Bojan Jevtić
Mercury enters Taurus early Saturday morning @ 8:15 AM, 12th (Whole) House, the natural home of Pisces ruled by Neptune.
MERCURY isn't only the Prince of Communication and Messenger of the Gods, he is also associated with the physician and healing; thus, the caduceus, a short-staff wand entwined by two serpents, sometimes surmounted by wings that is now the modern symbol for medicine. He is also the Divine Trickster and Patron of Merchants and short-distance travel.
TAURUS individuals with the Sun in Taurus are known for their practicality, persistence, determination, and caution. They tend to be methodical, requiring time to become accustomed to new ideas. Their appreciation for art and music often leads them to excel in these areas.
Retentive and steadfast, they seldom disperse their energies, but take on responsibilities with seriousness and practicality. Enjoying a life of grace, they possess an innate drive to establish a solid foundation, often anchored in financial stability.
They are headstrong and not easily angered, but once enraged, their fury is formidable. Nonetheless, this does not hinder their capacity for sympathy and understanding. They are loyal as a friend, yet unyielding as an adversary.
Mercury in Taurus Transit
Transits of Mercury in Taurus often slow down our communication, thinking, and learning, yet make them more persistent and lasting. Our thought processes become practical, solid, and well-grounded. Common sense takes precedence over fanciful ideas.
Communication becomes more deliberate, and our thoughts are more aligned with the five senses per Venus ruled Taurus. The familiar and proven appeal to us more than novel approaches to thinking pertaining to all forms of communication, intellectual processes, reasoning abilities, and self-expression.
Taurus, a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus, shapes our data review process when Mercury passes through it. We become more deliberate, carefully weighing every detail. Although our thinking and communication might become more conservative, it ensures ideas are carefully considered and not quickly dismissed in favor of new distractions.
Concentrating on a single task can simplify our lives, but it may also result in narrow, overly cautious, or rigid thinking. In such times, decisions and thought processes that proceed at a comfortable pace are prioritized without rush. We find ourselves able to handle, and even content with, tasks that are repetitive, routine, systematic, or even dull.
Additionally, it may be a period marked by obstinate thought patterns or viewpoints.
Mercury in Taurus Natal:
As an individual influenced by Mercury and Taurus, you approach projects with thorough preparation. Your mindset is practical, stable, and constructive. Your intellect possesses a certain rigidity, and you hold your opinions in high esteem, confident in their wisdom.
You might find that you seldom value others' opinions. With your exceptional memory and keen observational skills, you tend to listen without engagement; if your mind is not open to change, why consider another's viewpoint?
You often reiterate your points, restating what has been said in different words to ensure understanding. While you possess a sociable nature and a certain elegance in your demeanor, you tend to be somewhat reserved around new acquaintances.
You find more pleasure in reading a book while lounging in a comfortable, overstuffed chair than in being the center of attention at a crowded gathering. You read extensively, and it is through this experience that you learn the lessons you cherish in life.
Mercury in Taurus bestows a talent for financial matters. With an appreciation for beauty and value, those with Mercury in Taurus tend to thrive as art and antique dealers.

No. 13: Soul Star Energy[/b]
The silent crystalline Pyramids are silhouetted against the unbound vastness of the Cosmos. The atmosphere is lit up by ultraviolet, iridescent light. A Divine being is imprinted into the stars, partly obscured by the space dust and pure white cosmic rays that hold infinite blueprints to the mysteries of the Universe.
Their presence draws focus to your purpose and the transcendence from your physical body and your ego to understand the true nature of your soul consciousness and your reason for being.
The three Pyramids of Giza are recognized as one of the seven wonders of the world. Many of their secrets remain unsolved. The awareness of the bridge that exists between these sacred sites and the energy of the Creator is one that continues to inspire and guide us in the journey towards enlightenment and the evolution of the collective consciousness.
Acting as your North Star the eighth Chakra is a pure and direct channel to spirit that transcends the earthly planes and serves as a gateway to access and receive the downloads that flow from your awakened state.
This energy creates a silver cord linking your soul and your body. The Soul Star energy is responsible for your out of body experiences, the ability to make quantum leaps and manipulate time.
You can access your Akashic and Shadow Records and make sense of the lifetimes and soul contracts that are formative in shaping your experiences and understanding in this incarnation.
The Divine connection brings an understanding of unconditional love and alignment with your higher self.
Soul Message and Activation
New vision, new light and new awareness of my connection to the Divine is unfolding beautifully for me. I am in a state of pure awakened bliss!

We've got an intense lunation coming in right after DU closes, and we're actually in the energy of it now. Transformation. Endings. Rebirth. I would LOVE to have DUs date of creation and location to run a chart on it. I bet it would be interesting to see, especially with URANUS in the picture tomorrow, the planet of upheavals and change. The earliest registration date I could find was November 09, 2009.
Ah well, I guess it will remain a mystery.

Full Flower Moon 22SCORPIO13' perfects Saturday @ 12:56 PM, EDT, 10th House.
This Moon is not only in its detriment but will be traveling out-of-bounds this evening, adding to the intensity and unpredictability of this lunation. Expect to feel everything to the nth degree.
Historically, this Moon's moniker is a traditional name referring to the abundance of blooming flowers that occur during this month. Alternative names are Budding Moon, Leaf Budding Moon, Egg Laying Moon, and Planting Moon, depending on different tribal traditions.
Scorpio energy represents transformation and is connected to the Phoenix. The Phoenix has the ability, the strength, and the power to birth itself from ashes. From the ashes it rises into its true and highest form. Spiritually, it provides an opportunity to release intense emotions we may be harboring within.
This zodiac sign also symbolizes both beginning and endings, therefore, coupled with a Full Moon, transformation will be a major factor behind the power of this particular moon, ready or not. Scorpio is also the keeper of secrets; however, none can hide from this lunation.
As we emerge from a period of hibernation, as seeds from soil, we are embracing the vibrant energy of the spring season. Scorpio, known for its intense passion, is often associated with this celestial event, believed to be imbued with passion and desire from this profound water sign.
For those who do not like change, this moon could cause poignant upheaval. For those who have learned to master the energetic flow with ease and grace, this moon can still dredge up inner emotions that could rock your foundation. This emotionally charged event is considered one of the most opportune times for releasing.
It's time to take matters into our own hands and end anything that prevents evolution. Be it relationship, job, project, or even a material aspect of our life which drains resources by overshadowing progress.
Holding onto OR resisting the flotsam and jetsam floating to the surface by pushing it back down will only cause impassioned suffering and anxiety. Something in our life needs to begin but only from the ashes of an ending.
This transformative Scorpio Full Flower Moon will force us to undergo a metamorphosis by thrusting us from our safe hiding space into a burgeoning world in the midst of a post-war zone.
Scorpios influence will excavate long-buried silt to the surface. It's best not to fight the emergence of what may have been buried or hidden. The only way out is through the debris. If we can do that, we will have healed something complex and made space for positive growth.
Gently sift through the remnants and allow them to dissolve naturally through acceptance. Seek out the lesson, then release them into the ether from memory. Whether in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere, themes of acceptance and release permeate the atmosphere.
Scorpio is ruled by Pluto at night and Mars during the day. With its dance between Capricorn and Aquarius, Pluto has been one of the major influences in the astrology of 2024-2025, so we want to make sure we are fully honoring our inner truth, as well as intuitively seeking out the truth from others during this event.
When in its shadow, Scorpio is the darkest, deepest sign of the Zodiac. Scorpion mystery is magnified by the shadow energies of both Mars and Pluto. If not consciously controlled, those shadow energies can appear thru outward struggles such as: competitive self-expression, subtle manipulation and/or over-powering tactics of domination.
If we recognize these within ourselves, rest assured, we've become unbalanced with the Universe and natural order of things.
Rebalancing will require a commitment and deep dive into our psyche to excavate root issues which keep us locked in the repetitive patterns of self-sabotage. Also beware of the imposter syndrome, who loves to strike in this type of atmosphere.
This intensely powerful lunation enables us to utilizing its raw energy for our benefit, and the benefit of all by rising as the phoenix from what 'was' into the presence of 'is' by emerging renewed from the dark ashes of the potter's kiln.
