Grand Earth Trine
Grand Earth Trine - Stabilization
"The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper"
— Bertrand Russell
The Sun arrives in Virgo this week, forming a Grand Earth Trine, after making a challenging quincunx to the retrograde Mars in Capricorn. Trust and/or confidence wavers and we may continue to worry more about how others view us than how we see ourselves. There is a building sense of responsibility that may produce a variety of responses, based on our basic level of self-esteem. There could be erratic outbursts, pessimism, or a self-defeating tendency to try to keep the peace by not honoring our own insights. Both patience and faith may be in short supply, especially at the beginning of the week. Nonetheless, the overall atmosphere continues to supply inspiration and idealism which is increasingly supported by responsibility and practical approaches. Uncertainty leads us to a more introspective attitude, providing fertile ground for an auspicious Full Moon that occurs next Sunday (7:56 AM PDT 3° Pisces/Virgo). We may find ourselves prone to taking the 'line of least resistance' in order to solicit approval and keep the peace, which may only further reduce our personal self-esteem. The solution is likely found by worrying less about what others think of us and more about what we can do to assist them to achieve their highest potential. Whatever frustrations and slowdowns we experience this week will likely feel different than what we have been through for the past few weeks as our intuition whispers that we're turning an important corner.
There is a need for caution on Sunday but keeping ourselves calm enough to recognize the dangers may be quite a challenge. Patience and faith both falter. High energy and idealism keep us stirred up on Monday. We tend towards introspection on Tuesday as we recognize a building sense of responsibility. Although we may not immediately feel that we are up the the tasks we face, we're likely to find more confidence as we move through the week. The Sun arrives in Virgo Wednesday evening and begins to form a helpful Grand Earth Trine to Uranus and Saturn. The idealistic inspiration begins to feel more grounded. Thursday's Aquarius Moon helps to provide a detached sense of freedom, despite the looming responsibilities. Self-esteem begins to strengthen on Friday in a generally lively and amiable atmosphere. Nonetheless, we're still likely to hold a few things 'close to our chest' since we are still working on trust and stabilizing our confidence. The Moon is VOC nearly all day Saturday but we still benefit from the comfortable benevolence in the atmosphere. A willingness to compromise and negotiate may not initially put everything 'on the table'. Nonetheless, intentions are mostly productive and lay a solid foundation for the Full Moon that occurs at the beginning of next week.
