Forecast for Wednesday, January 20th
Taurus 1st Quarter Moon at 1°02′
ॐOracular Mantra—openings and opportunities, chaos, change and broadening horizons…
The word ‘chaos’ is Greek, from khaos, meaning ‘vast chasm, void’, or, less familiarly—an opening.
For circumstances to be experienced as chaos they need to exhibit ‘behavior so unpredictable as to appear random, owing to great sensitivity to small changes in conditions…’ as well as disorganization, confusion, and disorderliness. Still, chaos has repeatedly been used to describe the void which existed prior to the big bang—talk about an opening for opportunity…
❝Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void but out of chaos.❞
——Mary Shelly
More opportunities are opening to you now, and emerging, as the first quarter moon applies a conjunction to the Mars/Uranus conjunction at 6°44′ Taurus which simultaneously squares Jupiter at 7° Aquarius—a degree Uranus moved through back in late April of last year—these chaotically implied and tumultuous energies suggest imponderable impulses and instincts, and unknownable unknowns emerging, urging to be experienced.
Whether these energies take you by complete surprise, or maybe the alarms were set off for the awakenings today back in April of 2020… whatever it is you’re either entertaining or enduring is without bounds, and either way, neither fortunes or fictions, facts or frictions, could predict exactly or precisely how you might navigate the potentials being uncovered or taken on… even if you’re set in your directions—your map will likely now illustrate something of a detour.
And like the big bang—these new turns or deviating directions come seemingly out of nowhere, out of the blue… like the big bang, these new turns or deviating directions are guiding you toward much needed change and new, nurturing beginnings.
Change is to evolve, my friends… to thrive!
❝In chaos, there is fertility.❞
——Anaïs Nin
The bridge between your No Longer and your Not Yet is Now.
You have bridged this divide. Your bridge now «opens» to you—an opening to your broadened ideals and bluer than blue horizons… your future beyond your current Now begins through chaos—there is no other way—the universe that is your reality is beginning anew.
And as Rudhyar associates this degree through which the chaos is occurring and becoming and evoking represents a ‘new quality of being.’
Of course, for many of you, these changes will be experienced through the seeming simplicities of a new idea, perspective, or outlook… though, it will be no ordinary idea, perspective, or outlook.
Essentially, these emergences could become something like new gospel for you, sacred, and ever so strangely timely…
❝Chaos was the law of nature; Order was the dream of man.❞
——Henry Adams
There’s a very defined stellium of Aquarius energy currently moving the collective forward, including the sun, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mercury… and through an individual lens, these new ideas, perspectives, or outlooks might be surprising, or provoking, disrupting, shocking, or disturbing—but keep in mind that what needs to be focused on now is the overall, the forest, and the panoramic view of those bluer than blue horizons… not merely a simple, single detail.
Single details can easily be mistaken for truths, for beliefs, sure—and these energies are striving to move beyond these more structured concepts, to become fluid, as rigid truths can become quite stagnant.
Stagnation, like obsessions with single details, can be a projection—the real stagnation could be sourced from within… this could result in a necessary confrontation with yourself…
Perhaps your individuated self has something to say?
Why do you really think and believe and imagine what you do?
In what ways are these thoughts, beliefs and imaginings limiting you?
❝I finally figured out that not every crisis can be managed. As much as we want to keep ourselves safe, we can’t protect ourselves from everything. If we want to embrace life, we also have to embrace chaos.❞
——Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Aquarian energy not only supports, celebrates, and demands improvements and strategic innovations—but more critically, if not imperatively—understanding and reparations… and truly, repairing a state of fluidity can seem or feel backward, strange, or even ‘wrong’ depending upon the rigidity of one’s ordinary outlooks—like the big bang itself, opportunities will be somewhat unusual, and not without its endless misunderstandings.
Uranus the Awakener is frequently associated with the unexpectedness and edginess involved with surprise, and infamously connected to the adage of advice: to expect the unexpected—and this is all well and good and very, very likely—however, it could be distractedly overlooked: that which is likely simply isn’t likely at this time, not to be misunderstood that that which is likely for you may not be for me and so each of our experiences with unlikeliness now will inevitably be wildly different… these energies are rampant with that which is unforeseen, but also somewhat unimaginable in each single example—and perhaps this explains such uneasiness.
To think: we’re still experiencing the big bang in real time…
❝When we free ourselves from the chaos enclosed in the surrounding rigid social structure, we can find peace of mind and still our hunger for knowledge and understanding. If we follow the rhythm of our heartbeat, we can quench our thirst for meaning in life and encounter an array of soothing vibrations of wellbeing.❞
——Erik Pevernagie
And, perhaps some of the uneasiness stems from an underlying sense of urgency, or demand even—to act, to decide, to move… and this is where fluidity will be to your advantage.
Stagnation, or feeling sensations of safety from staying in place, will unnecessarily create conflict for you—and this will (in)directly illicit furthered uneasiness, unexpected edginess and the distractions of forced or rushed change.
Fluidity, on the other hand—sure, it requires a path of course to be chosen with personal accountability, however, this path begins to flow with great strength, and trust… especially as this path flows closer and closer to its source.
And so it is with spirituality… and Truth.
❝Chaos is what we’ve lost touch with. This is why it is given a bad name. It is feared by the dominant archetype of our world, which is Ego, which clenches because its existence is defined in terms of control.❞
——Terence McKenna
They say that the big bang occurred within a matter of seconds.
Seconds.
Can you imagine?!
The entire universe… in seconds. Yet. We’re still experiencing it.
Your own opening could occur within the blink of an eye—it’s fatedness not as important as it’s so often so thoughtlessly sensationalized… only seconds.
Be openly objective. Trust your divinity. Discern the differences between reasonability and irrationality… and don’t miss your opening.
❝In the space between chaos and shape there was another chance.❞
——Jeanette Winterson
