Astrodharma Transit Report: December 2020

STALKING THE PREY OF PRESENCE

LIKE DOMINION voting machines, minds were designed to be hacked by the code-cracking power of astrology, meditation and self-inquiry.

What’s in it for the hacker? The crown jewel:

A sublimely relaxed, soul-seeing nervous system, warmly okay with the dark controllers faithfully fulfilling their karmic role of embodying the cynical dullness awaiting us, should we, too, make a god of security, sensation and power, instead of getting still enough to hear the Ethereal Lover whispering,

The purpose of life is to witness the thrashing of mind-on-a-countdown with tenderness, mercy and insight and embrace each ego-dissolving moment with humility, grace and style.

In the years leading up to this year’s Saturn/Pluto conjunction, I often wondered how this, or any, transit could bury a stone in the forehead of the Corp/Gov Goliath. By what mechanism could a planetary transit expose corruption in so many disparate governments and economies? Then came Covid, voter machine fraud and Miss Powell.

With Sun in Taurus conjunct the Midheaven and Leo rising, Sidney is part lawyer, part rockstar. In addition, her publicity-bound Sun is opposed rabidly lawful Saturn in Scorpio in the patriotic fourth house, squaring muck-raking Pluto. Add in a Virgo Moon square Mars and you get a combative, detail-loving “detective of the dark.”

Do the stars say anything about who might emerge as victor in the U.S. presidential election? Yes. Whoever best serves Saturn/Pluto’s systemic housecleaning agenda. True, at the time of this writing, no voter fraud has been proven. But the systemic parameters of Sidney’s claims of corruption are pure Saturn/Pluto and, during this information-outing Gemini/Sag eclipse season, it’s unlikely the issue can be swept under the rug forever.

Victor aside, let us pray that the citizens of the U.S are far-seeing enough to set aside their political differences enough to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purge their country (and, perhaps, many others) of technological tyranny, leaving a legacy of fair elections for generations to come.

December Transits

In December, the zeitgeist, or “mood of the times” makes a radical shift as Saturn and Jupiter move out of Capricorn into the sign of Aquarius. Stoic perseverance gives way to rambunctious re-visioning. It’s as if Aquarius is saying to Capricorn,

Enough of your death-stinky isolation and heaviness. It’s time to safely reconnect with Aquarian community and revive our interpersonal enthusiasm! (“En-theos:” “The god within.”)

And just in the nick of time. It will take Aquarian teamwork to get through the economic disruption and social upheaval caused by the revolutionary Saturn/Uranus transit that forms its first exact square on February 17th, 2021. December is a time to reach out to those like-minded souls with whom we can most happily ride out the socio-economic tumult.

Think of it as a time to “finish up and pivot.” As Saturn and Jupiter conjoin in the sign of Aquarius on the 21st, Jupiterian expansion and new beginnings are born from Saturnian contraction and endings. Responsibly phase out placeholder relationships, roles and lifestyles and open to a more visionary, team-driven future.

Nine day Reset

Capricorn’s dutiful strictness starts to lighten up starting Dec 14th when the New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Sag rolls into the momentous Jupiter/Saturn Conjunction on December 22nd. During these nine days (Dec 14th to Dec 22nd), many questions will remain unanswered but now, at least, people begin to agree on what the problem is. This is a critical shift. We have to agree on what the problem is in order to unite enough to fix it.

Dec 14th New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius:
Security Grasper or Tao Relaxer?

This Solar eclipse in truth-loving Sagittarius squares Neptune and trines Mars in Aries, exposing a boatload of behind-the-scene secrets and subterfuge that push Solar leaders to take Aries action.

On a personal level, it challenges us all of us to balance meditative pauses with gutsy movement forward. This call to balance introversion and extroversion is important training for 2021. Why? Because the intensifying two year Saturn/Uranus square (November 2020- October 24, 2022) is historically associated with scarcity of work, economic hardship and high unemployment. It wants us committed, but facile; quick to go within and revision.

Most importantly, Uranus/Saturn wants souls committed to “alive purpose.” So it tests:

Is this just an ego-flattering dream or do you know yourself to be chosen by this calling and you’re simply surrendering to God’s will?

Count on Saturn/Uranus to rattle, disrupt and test our resolve in order to separate the security-graspers from the Tao-relaxers.

What does success look like in 2021? Keeping our Aquarian networks alive in order to offset the alienation of techno-centric living and the suppression of global travel. Here’s a list of the times when this square will be exact. Mark these “hot zones” on your calendar.

December 29th Full Moon in Cancer

Released from the sober influence of Saturn, this nourishing Full Moon trines and sextiles the “fresh start” energy of Uranus. We have crash landed onto a planet in disrepair, but we’re learning to make it our home and the energy is slowly rising for a rebuild.

Note for fridge:

“Pro-fane” means, “in front of the temple,” instead of in it.
