Saturn and Pluto are discussing how and where you need change the structures of your life to evolve. It is time to consolidate and integrate the last 30 years of your life. Or better said, Pluto, in Saturn’s sign of Capricorn, is asking his heavenly father, Saturn in Scorpio, for guidance on how to evolve and change. Yes, even planets have fathers ~ at least in mythology. They are working together, hanging out together, chatting, drinking a beer, and watching the clouds move.

So we are having a father/son talk with ourselves. A conference so to speak. A dialogue between our little person and our big person. We are consulting about how to proceed with the wisdom of the ages. However, we are our OWN father/son at the same time. We are taking, remembering, and processing what we learned at our authoritative parent’s knee. It is an internal dialogue of extreme importance this week.

We are figuring out what changes we want to make in our lives, based on that earlier input and ideas we learned. We are in charge of our own life ~ we get to do what we want to create our life the way we want to create it. However, often, we have not so good “programming” which we got from our parents, our culture or our society. Now, we have the opportunity to erase that memory or programming if it no longer serves our essence of what or who we want to become in our next chapter of life. Here is a dad talking about the role of that early programming from the TED Talks. It is highly instructive about looking at where we came from to see where we are going. And how we have to change things to have a different outcome

Venus in serious, somber, consequences, and expensive Capricorn rolls through the Finger of God this week between Monday and Thursday, setting off things from Pluto and the Capricorn leg of the Finger. She stimulated Saturn on November 26, when we were still in eclipse season. Now, Venus stimulating the Finger of God is going to talk to you about HOW to proceed with the transformation process from a Pluto point of view. Generally, this union of Venus and Pluto is a passionate, driven energy, and not particularly troublesome, even if it involves a triangle. However, IF you are having a secret, hidden affair ~ romantic or other kinds ~ this is a set up for being exposed. Tell the truth if it happens and you get caught. They have the goods on you any way so you might as well confess and own up to the story. Eclipse degrees are being triggered. Jupiter at the Apex of the Finger of God gets set off by Venus so cell phone numbers, sextext messages, dinner/hotel receipts, mislaid or bad communications, mail problems, fanny, pocket or purse dialing happens that exposes the affair. You get the idea. Jupiter in Gemini retrograde ~ slowing to a station ~ well, Jupiter, he’s going to rat you out.

As the Finger of God continues to pulse through the heavens, the Sun and Mercury meet up this week on Friday. Mercury combust the Sun makes us crystal clear about what we need to do, what we believe, and what we are moving toward. The Sun and Mercury are clearly and firmly answering to Saturn’s call to transform your life. You’ll have your clear vision. Both Mercury and Sun leave Capricorn to enter Aquarius on Saturday, starting a new 17 and 30 day of experience respectively. Mercury in Aquarius is simply brilliant ~ but more about Mercury next week.

We are going to be living with the Finger of God until the end of March. It DOES get easier as we get used to it. It is all about living in the moment. April wrote a helpful interpretation of the Finger of God and how she works with it:

Finger of God: Lawd Jesus it’s been a rocking time. When you were referring to internet dating and giving a 15 minute slot for a yes or no ~ that was key for me. I suspect one of the things we’re learning to do is “TRUST,” in a way. How that relates to me is, I now “know” in my gut, in my heart of hearts, what’s going to serve my higher purpose, or reflect my ego desires. So, the 15 minutes is right on par with a “yep” or “nope,” around an experience or relationship that creates expansion or causes me to shrink. That being said, I also have noticed when I am in an expansive experience, I don’t have to think, it just flows. Authentic self-expression comes to pass and I find I communicate better and see more clearly what there is to do, or say. A bit like a meditation.

When I am in the “ego” state or it’s running the show, I am not able to let go of what’s next, how’s this going to happen, and subsequently and immediately insecurities kick in. Meaning, when I am being authentic, I don’t have to know anything! Aha moment of giving up that knowing solves or creates anything! Fantastic state I hope to cultivate over the course of the next few months.

Yes, April, we are ALL going to be cultivating living in that flow state for the next three months. And when we crash to the ground with a thump or a bump, the insecurities kick in. Trust the process and stand in your authentic heart place.

A good way to use and harness the energy of the week is to focus your intentions and thoughts around a positive moment or dedicated intention in the morning upon arising. Establish it as a ritual to help you work with the Finger of God. After all if God is talking to YOU, YOU can talk right back! Create a dialogue with the Finger! And in honor of Mercury joining up with the Nodes of Destiny and inspiring your Thoughts to Soar to GREAT HEIGHTS as befits the Capricorn energy, below are some suggestions.

Enjoy this week of solid, working and moving forward. Your life awaits you!

Monday Moon day January 14 finds Moon in gentle, kind, deeply emotional Pisces with a lovely closing aspect of an opening sextile to the Capricorn Sun. We have the ability to work, very productively, with the energy of the New Moon at 21 Capricorn last week. Things begun under this Moon roll forward with grace and beauty. Dreams can waken you as the Nodes and Venus argue about how to proceed. Trust the process and live in the moment. Venus has a working, and productive sextile to Chiron, encouraging her to move past her old wounds to embrace love, passion, desire and what she deeply wants. Venus sets off the Jupiter in the Apex of the Finger of God stimulating the evolutionary energy and the triangle in your chart. Pluto and Juno join up around 5:30 pm, releasing secrets and information you would rather not have heard about. Mars trine to Zeus offers an option to take action to move situations forward productively.

Tuesday Mars Day January 15 Moon in Pisces continues to gently nurture and create…Not a lot of aspects makes it a relatively quiet day. Dreams are full of chasing. Health matters can swell out of nowhere. Mercury connects with the Nodes of Fate in an easy flowing manner. Say yes to the offers you receive. They are going to be fun! Watch for who arrives in your life. Or for messages you receive. Pay attention to them. Mars and Hades have a bit of a tussle ~ more over security issues than anything particularly difficult. But do pay attention to what is going on. Mars and Neptune are both trying to get you to see patterns, ~patterns in YOUR behavior as well as patterns in the OTHER person. Mercury’s union with Venus by declination suggests you might be kind of anxious about the matter before you ~ deal with it directly. No avoidance. Vesta has an adjusting aspect to Juno suggesting you can shift how you feel about partnerships or relationships. Pack up the stuff and get it OUT OF YOUR SPACE.

The balance of the Days will be posted later Monday.
