Peace on Earth
The planet Mars will be as big as the moon on July 27th. This happens every 35,000 years. You probably don’t recall the last time this occurred! In Astrology, the planet Mars has a powerful energy. Although Mars is always seen as responsible for war, hurt, destruction, and fights, Mars is simply an unconscious animalistic nature we don’t give enough freedom to. Restrictions in our expression of energy will lead to inhibitions of all sorts and accumulation of anger and frustration below our surface, beyond the face we show to the world.
Mars represents our basic energy, our first chakra, and speaks of fears that tend to control our lives. If we are brave enough to live up to our full potential on planet Earth, Mars is the one to help us find our grounding, resolve any material and existential issues, and provide us with the energy we need to follow any of our plans and reach any goal we wish to.
We are in a time of a lot of Mars energy on our planet. Millions of people have drawn lines in the sands of their lives. We are in a time of opposition and adversary. This is the time for those of us that realize the more subtle energies present in life to be the peaceful center. We can balance the Mars energy with the Venus and Jupiter energy that is present on our planet. Venus can bring us love and Jupiter will inspire us!
Let us do our best to be not “against” others. Let us find a way to be “for” what we believe. When we create a scenario of right and wrong, we all lose. We lose our gentility, compassion, caring and civility for each other. I encourage us to find a quiet place and tune into the Oneness of everyone and everything. When we hold each other high and celebrate our divinity we can move through this challenging Martian time. From my peaceful heart to yours, Thomas
