Is this the summer of our discontent?  So much going on universally and astrologically. I’ve been wanting to write for weeks now to share my thoughts regarding how we need to live our lives within all of what is occurring on our beautiful planet.

I have found the only place I can be at peace these days is when I am in a natural setting.  Walking through a forest, or a park or at the ocean allowing the waves to wash away my fear, concern, sadness and frustration.  I find myself needing to feel the energy of our lovely Mother Earth as she still has a way of nurturing me that is powerful and delightful.

We are definitely in a time of huge reconstruction of all of the major structures we have come to depend on.  These include world governments, the financial markets, our education and health care systems as well as the environment affecting the food we eat and the air we breathe.   Each day I search for a glimpse of the goodness that will come from this reconstruction.  When the rebuilding is complete; will we have better systems all the way around?  Will we be able to be at peace in our hearts and in our minds?  How much can be expect to be different?

Pluto, the planet that brings with it a powerful force that demands death of old ways and renewal to something better is traveling through Capricorn.  Capricorn is considered to be the head state astrologically.  This sign is in the most responsible position in our natural horoscope.  It is the Father of the Zodiac.  With Pluto here we are seeing a major upheaval of many of the systems I mentioned above.  It is challenging at best for us mere human beings to try and understand much less process all of negativity that is surrounding what appears to be destruction of the old.  And yet, and yet and yet what an opportunity each one of us has as individuals in honoring and living in what we know is the right way in a society that is as complex as ours.

We must look deeper, pay more attention to news medias that are giving us a somewhat balanced view of what is occurring and do all we can as spiritually evolved, fully conscious and hopeful peoples.  I have vowed to do all I can to stay in a place of enlightened awareness.  I make an effort every day to focus on what I know is beautiful about humanity to assure that I am a part of the more enlightened society we are working towards.

This is my recommendation.  Spend your days and nights living your life to the fullest.  Enjoy, protect and love those that matter to you.  Be a RESPONSIBLE member of your community.  Get involved in something small or big that is a part of creating the enlightened society we all desire.  Banish the negativity from your life on every level.  The food you eat, the food you feed your family, the thoughts you think and the words you say.  These all matter.  I promise you that.

In September Jupiter, the planet that brings a new and wonderful light to all that is good and abundant. will move to the sign of Libra, the sign that governs peace, harmony and positive relationships.  Meditate on how you can be a force for good in creating the kinds of relationship we all know must include a more compassionate and kind way of  living with other human beings.

I send you peaceful thoughts and ask that healing light surround your life.  Always know that I am here as your astrological beacon of light to support the most positive vision for your life.

Namaste,

Maria Francesca Triliegi
