WONDERLAND, DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE
While there are no major astrological events taking place in your sign this year, your Sun sign will certainly feel the changing energetic and archetypal shifts that are happening on a broader, collective stage. This move of the transpersonal planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) out of water and earth signs and into fire and air, at least for large chunks of this year, really suit the natural pace and rhythms of your fire sign. It’s like the background setting is one that gels naturally with your own and is likely to feel invigorating and like a breath of fresh air.
Your ruler, Jupiter, spends the first six months in your opposite sign of Gemini. This is a great transit for you as Gemini offers your sign the gifts of other perspectives and the medicine of curiosity. This helps to ensure that your sign expands beyond any tunnel vision that you have been building. Gemini brings in a curious innocence and a playful trickster energy. While your archetype is both the student and the teacher, here the energy is one of student, seeking out new areas of interest, new teachers, and ways of seeing. Playfulness is a healing balm with this transit, especially if life has felt more serious of late.
On June 10th, Jupiter will move into the watery sign of Cancer, where it will take up residency for the next year. In Cancer, you may be in search of experiencing and re-defining what brings you a sense of meaning in your domestic environment. What is a meaningful home life for you? On a deeper level, this is a chance to experiment with and grow your relationship with your intuitive self, which is deeply entwined with the nurturance of your own inner sanctuary, your inner world. While you are the sign of the seeker and the philosopher, in Cancer, there’s a more emotional and intuitive flavour at hand.
From July 7th until November 8th, Uranus, this planet of ideas and new templates of being, enters your opposite sign of Gemini. Again, it continues this expansion in your field of vision, of what’s possible for your life and life here on our planet. Utilise the Gemini tools of journaling and conversation (with self and others) to process your ideas and then utilise your inherent magic of being an experiential creature. Try out the new, experiment with it, see what resonates and what does not. Your fire-instincts will serve you well here as will your capacity for philosophising. There are vast ideas and ways of seeing available now.
Part of what harmonises your sign is to be in front of a wide vista; to sense the wonder and magnitude of life. While that will always be medicinal in terms of physical landscapes, this year also focuses you towards broadening the scope of your intellectual landscapes; widening your sense of the world and of life, being open to the new and unexpected, trying out new routes and maintaining an elasticity to life. As mutable fire, your ability to adapt while again, remaining clearly tethered to your instinctual self, is paramount in this year of newness.
