Universal Sky NewsletterSun in Taurus 2005April 19th to May 19th, 2005This is the month to grab the bull by the horns and direct your desire. If there are important tasks that need to be accomplished this is the month to do them. On April 19th, 2005 the Sun moves into the Sign of Taurus. It‘s all about searching for our Values and Beliefs on a personal level this month. So I ask you, the reader, what do you Value and Believe? What do you value about yourself? How do you take responsibility for your values? If you can answer these questions then your search may be of a different kind. Taurus is the first Earth Sign within the Zodiac. Earth Signs aid in the implantation of manifesting our desires. They give us the practical skills required, to bring our desires into form. What do you want in your life, and are you working in a practical, productive and fertile way to bring it into manifestation? This is the month that aids our desire in taking form in this reality. Harness the focused and grounded energy of Taurus to aid bringing your desired results into form. Take responsibility for yourself and execute against your desires, bring them into form. Incorporate the Taurus energy and enjoy the finer things in life. We will experience the Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse on April 24, 2005 at 5:56 AM EST. Full Moons are a time of fulfilment and balance. When a Full Moon is aligned with a Lunar Eclipse we are being asked to release. There is special emphasis on release with this particular Full Moon Lunar Eclipse for it is taking place at 4 Degrees of Scorpio 20 minutes. As many people may know, the sign of Scorpio is about Death, Transformation and Rebirth. It is a sign of letting go of what no longer serves, and the Lunar Eclipse is assisting us in doing the same. The Sabian Symbol* for 5 Degrees of Scorpio is, ‘A MASSIVE ROCKY SHORE RESISTS THE POUNDING OF THE SEA’**. On an intuitive level I believe this Lunar Eclipse may be difficult for those who choose not to allow the change process to work at its own rate of speed. Let go of when and where, just be. When we allow change to happen within its own timing this permits flow to come into effect. The waves will continue to pound on the rocky shore, however the rock will constantly be changing shape, at its own rate. Shore lines corrode, and take new shapes. Change is happening regardless of our disposition toward it. We have no direct control, however we can direct the current of the waves. Take a look at what you desire in your life, are you trying to manipulate the flow of current, or are you letting the wind determine how fast and hard the tide will hit the rocks? For if you are in control of anything during this Lunar Eclipse, it will be the force of impact. It is your perception that will dictate how it impacts you on a personal level. On April 30th aggressive Mars moves into a passive Pisces, which leaves us confused. There is a sense of restlessness, as the energy is asking us to slow down. Actions and events are somewhat unpredictable at this time, due to the flow and force of what has been created. This is a time that water rushes under the foundational structures that have been created through time, to wash away the residue that does not support the new coming into play. Now is the time to follow the path of least resistance. The best way to utilize the flush of this energy is to literally go swimming. Any type of water sport will aid in diluting this energy and minimizing its impact. Take the time and swim with the dolphins in Florida or with the whales in Newfoundland. Either way, prepare yourself for the waters; they will either be really hot or really cold! The New Moon happens on May 8th 2005 at 4:47 AM EST. This New Moon we are experiencing the energy of Taurus. Tap into the desire you wish to manifest. There will be a lot of focus and energy in reserve today, so utilize techniques for manifesting. With the Moon in Taurus we can reflect upon our personal values and beliefs internally. Take this time to truly tap into the energy and focus on what you desire to manifest. This New Moon happens at 17 Degrees of Taurus 52 Minutes. The Sabian Symbol* for 18 Degrees of Taurus is; ‘A WOMAN AIRING AN OLD BAG THROUGH THE OPEN WINDOW OF HER ROOM’.*** It is representing a cleansing of ego-consciousness. The ego referring to our ‘human’ aspect of Self. Through the power of this symbol and New Moon we are given the opportunity for a fresh perspective. There is an ability to cleanse our perceptions. This is also impacted today as we are also experiencing ‘Mercury Trine Pluto’. This gives special focus on the ‘cleansing of the mind’. We are working with transforming our thoughts in order to create a healthy core seed for planting what we desire to manifest. Sociable Venus moves into chatty Gemini on May 9th, 2005. Now is the time to get out and socialize. This is a great time to make plans for moving into alignment with your belief system. Decisions may be difficult but Venus lets you make the choices that reflect your belief systems. So when choosing what direction to take or what item to buy, pick the one with the most value. If you are trying to decide what social event to attend, pick the one’s you can have the most FUN at. No matter what social event you are at, you can expect laughter, hugs and a warm friendly feeling. Venus Trine’s Jupiter in Air signs on May 17th – this should offer a lot of luck if you are in alignment with your value system. On May 12, 2005, Thoughtful Mercury moves into practical Taurus. Now you can put the planning energy of Venus in Gemini to work in a practical way for the next three weeks. Thought will be around manifesting. Most of your ideas will be grounded so that you can steadily work through, anchoring and manifesting the ideals that you value. Your concentration is focused now, so put the energy to good use and materialize your ideals. Venus in Gemini will support the energy required to do so. Neptune the planet of illusion turns retrograde until October 26th, 2005. During this time our aspirations take an internal approach. Faith is strongly needed during this time for the fog may be separated uncovering the truth. This happens at 17 Degrees of Aquarius 36 Minutes. The Sabian Symbol* for 18 Degrees of Aquarius is; “A MAN’S SECRET MOTIVES ARE BEING PUBLICLY UNMASKED.”**** Illusion will turn to disillusion during this retrograde period. You have the ability now to see through the deception of society or people. Open your eyes and see the truth. This is a great energy that aids us in seeing our personal addictions and how they may be damaging to us and others in our life. Start breaking those addictions when Neptune moves direct on October 26th. Enjoy the Sun's Transit of Taurus!!!
