HOLIDAY ASTROLOGICAL OUTLOOK: Dec. 22-29TH MARS IN TRANSITION

EYE ON THE SKY: ASTROLOGICAL WEATHER FORECAST FOR CHRISTMAS TO NEW YEARS

The biggest event of the next week is Mars leaving Aquarius on Dec. 23 and moving into Pisces and we have written about this.   Today, Mars is weak at the edge of the sign so energy is low and it is a important day to get extra rest.  The 4th pada of Purvabhadrapada (Pisces 0-3.20)  Dec. 23-28th is connected to Cancer where Mars is weak and has little action to act.  Water padas are connected to letting go and meditation and this will help any emotional clouds and indecision present through Dec. 28th.

On Friday, Dec. 28th, Mars moves into Uttara Bhardrapada (Pisces 3.20-16.40). This constellation  comprises two bright stars in Pegasus and Andromeda.  Mars is a less afflicted than it has been in Aquarius but it will still be channeling Saturn’s energy from Dec. 28-Jan. 16 and Saturn is generally happy in Sag, it is still Saturn and can create hesitation and frustration for Mars the spiritual warrior in Pisces.

In general, Mars in Pisces through Feb. 5th  can create overspending, living too big and too fast, problems with children, staggered expansion, broken promises, zealousness.  Later in January , its brighter side will come out with this transit with is a braver outlook, generosity, devoted to ideals, and being an activist for legal causes.  Scorpio and Aries rising will be most affected Aries being more troubled by expenses and trips to foreign countries and Scorpio rising probably getting enriched by spiritual knowledge and new spiritual initiations.  Capricorn, Libra and Taurus rising actually may benefit most as it is a 3, 6 and 11th house transit from their rising signs.  Pisces and Virgos  will also be affected most by relationship and sexual tensions issues.

The constellation of Uttarbhadrapada which begins Dec. 28th   means “lucky feet and is connected to the funeral cot which denotes the exit from world and becomes connected with the wisdom of the 12th sign of the zodiac and its connection to Moksha or liberation but also to sleep.  The deity of this constellation is Ahir Bhudhanya, which translates to the “serpent of the depths” and is a fertility deity but also a kind of monster from the sea much like Neptune and is connected to the underworld.  Connected to Shiv, it destroys ignorance to prepare us to dissolve. Hence Mars in Pisces always brings up deep subconcious patterns and deep 12th house patterns that cause us to move toward liberation, letting go and liberation.  Letting go of the material is always difficult and the recent fall in the stock market is that kind of energy. We continue to see problems for the stock market into January.

The energy of this constellation is that of the wise old man and it is connected to the planet Saturn and it never acts hastily and its stronger energy will come out with Saturn strong in transit in January.    Still Mars in Pisces  carries the influence of Jupiter and has a calming and serene and compassionate nature that will calm Mars’ fire.

The constellation is connected to responsibility but it is likely to have trouble  as Mars/Saturn associations always stir up frustration and indecision and action.   Still ultimately this constellation is usually fortunate for making and handling money-which is not always something that we connect with Pisces.  On an esoteric level, it is connected to the crown chakra and represents the end of the journey of the kundalini energy moving toward liberation so one would think that it will promote meditation and calm Mars’ restless fire.

Special thanks to Prash Trivedi and Komilla Sutton for their insights on this constellation.

What fellow astrologers are saying about last year’s edition:

“This almanac is truly a masterpiece and labor of love. Barry is a gifted astrologer and writer. I have written yearly forecasts for over 30 years and understand the work, knowledge and dedication involved. It is so complete with everything a beginner or advanced student of astrology would need. The references to the planet’s transit through the signs, nakshatras, aspects, dates and times, plus their interpretations is fantastic. He even covers the effects these will have on individual countries. I am sure I will be referring to this manual frequently throughout the year.”

What critics are saying:  “Barry’ Poetic Tour de Force unveils lays of psychological wisdom that heals the troubled soul.–Jamie Bateman

Now on AMAZON IN SOFT BOUND EDITION FOR 24.95.

The book is accessible for people who do not know much about astrology and is meant for a larger audience and only small parts of it are technical .

SUMMARY:

The deepest purpose of astrology should allow us to see the Maya or illusion that runs through our mind and blocks us from seeing our own Divinity. Astrology should reveal our hidden patterns and not just affirm what we know about our self already. It is our hidden patterns and blind spots which get us into the most trouble and cause us the most suffering. It takes courage to look at them, bring them into the light and transforms them but that is why we are on the planet. It is much like Bill Murray in Ground Hog Day (1993). How many times do we have to repeat our lives and relive our pain or do we realize our flaws and actively work on them and transform ourselves into a more conscious and active and loving and compassionate person. In this brilliant collection of essays divided into 7 sections, Psychological and Emotional and Spiritual Dimensions of Vedic Astrology, Secrets of the Houses, Blind Spots. Spiritual Astrology, Relationship and Techniques, Barry reveals material beyond the ordinary in unveiling our True Self beyond the illusion.    The great spiritual teacher Yogananda was fond of saying that  most of what we call the spiritual battle is really a psychological battle and once that battle is won, the spiritual battle is a short one.  This book aims to support you in deep spiritual growth with profound psychological insight.

Barry’s spiritual and psychological approach to astrology seeks to cut the puppet strings of the planets that impact our emotions and psychology and bind us to self-blame, doubt and fear, and anger.  This useful guide will help you navigate your life.
