If you're wondering why you need to finish up any backlog and still feeling like something BIG is happening, welcome to what's happening to everyone. It's the end of the end for us all. Many who are prepared and ready will be moving into newer, better things, while others are probably feeling like they haven't a clue what's next. Welcome to where we ALL live.
Venus is now stationary direct at 30 Pisces, with Mars rapidly converging on its conjunction, fusing many things, creating a thought form that will impact us all for years to come. This is a degree of Archetypalization, where our thought forms can be shaped in ways that if we're willing to put our heart behind our mind's form, we can see it made manifest in the months to come.
Be thoughtful. Be considerate. Say goodbye. Bless the passage.
Wherever 30 Pisces falls, we'll see the fusion of the areas ruled by Aries, Taurus, Libra, and Scorpio. This unifies a third of our life (4 signs) in a life area (the house where 30 Pisces falls) where we are given the chance to practice our thought form building capacity. We will know how expert we are by what shows up in the next two years.
Venus is quickening, and conjunct Mars for weeks to come. Welcome to a great fusion, where several areas of our lives will come together to manifest the dream we've dreamed, the ideal we've declared we want to be made manifest.
Breathe deep, meditate and go deeper, and move into the vast ocean of the end of the end of Pisces, the last sign of the 360 degree archetypal span of activity. The end of Pisces is the broadest, vastest field of feeling experience anyone could imagine, where our separate self can dissolve into the vast Self.
Both Venus and Mars are now in an area where we all can sense the vastness of the totality of human experience, where we all share deep feelings with us since the beginning of time. For the next week, embrace the deep compassion where we all come together in the common human experience, forgive much, open to a wider compassion for yourself and all others through all time, and relax. The future is already on the way, like an express train.

Hello Robert,
"A New Day Has Come" Celine Dion...started playing as I was perusing this article. How amazing Serendipity.
Thank you for all you do,

Hi Robert,
Nice to see a solid title. I have no clue whats ending and whats beginning for me, but sure welcome the change. I did have the feeling that something is yet to change and am in the verge of a big thing, but got no hints yet. Lots of thoughts are running in my mind though and awaiting a positive turning point.
Venus, my ruling planet has become direct and I could sense that for sure. Good for us.:) Its nice to get the guidance through your wisdom astrologically and practically too.
Tons of thanks!!!!

Excelent Omen for all of us to breath deeply, await our Destiny with serenity and Love and open up to the Best Being we can possible BE.
Namasté,
Isabel

Wow Robert! Sounds exciting! I have been anticipating changes for the past few years, but it really feels as if they are about to manifest. T Pluto is squaring my natal Venus at 0 Libra (transforming my values and relationships), and now T Venus-Mars is directly opposite. N Venus is conj. my N Asc, so it will be very interesting to see what changes I do experience.
For humanity, I see a shift to understanding that We Are All One (Venus in Pisces) and Mars putting that knowing into action by increasing our willingness to help each other - knowing that by doing so we are helping ourselves.
Very exciting times!
Love & Light,
Viki

Wow..this is what I've been feeling for sometime now but more acutely these past few months. I am working on being at peace with the moment, the letting go of it all. Nice that you confirmed this for me and all.
This definitely feels like a turning point of sorts.
I'm excited about what might manifest, thank you for your ever guiding light.

Robert,
Creating archetypes or manifesting thought forms seems very challenging to me as I am in mourning at the moment for a relationship. I don't know how NOT to feel my feelings, and that, I'm afraid, will alter what I am capable of manifesting.
I don't indulge -- the grief comes, and then it goes. But I've learned enough to know I'm NOT my feelings but must feel them anyway.
How does one look to the future as one mourns the past? When I meditate, and I sit very still, I can find an open state. But the sadness also comes rushing in even as I try to focus on what I'd like to manifest.
Are this and last week really the only weeks that one has power to shape one's future in big way? When astrology creates good conditions, are there further opportunities to go back and take advantage if one were grieving or in some other emotional crisis at the time?
Thanks,
Annette

my boyfriend is a pisces, with an aries ascendant.
"Be thoughtful. Be considerate. Say goodbye. Bless the passage."
We've been fighting for the past month.
"where we are given the chance to practice our thought form building capacity. We will know how expert we are by what shows up in the next two years."
"where several areas of our lives will come together to manifest the dream we've dreamed, the ideal we've declared we want to be made manifest."
What if you've had real dreams that included bad examples of what the future might bring. Bad dreams that scare you to death in real life. What if you can't fix what you want to hold on to dearly ...... What if your just scared your not smart enough or emotionless enough to have what you desire.
:( What if you never learn to be able to have happiness.

Hi Robert and Robyn
I may be in the same situation as you if I focussed on the bad aspects. Instead I wake up each day and count on my finger tips the good things I do have. I do the same before lights out.
Once I developed this habit the good things were the key to solve the bad.
Hope I made some sense here.
Love
p.s Robert was a great help the last couple of years and still is.

Dear Aditya,
Hoe nice to see confirmation of the really GOOD help given by Robert! He is doing such excelent work and sharing (and allowing many of us to also share) so many valued insights and life experience!
I agree with you that positive things are the ones that will help us through the less good ones. And this review of what's happening in our life, before going to sleep, were one of the recommended attitudes of Pytagoras - long before the "Best Practices" trend they were, in fact, doing the same and at a deeper level.
I take the opportunity to tell you that I also answered your comments at "Newsletter" and posted new stuff.
Hoping to see you around, and also leaving a great smile to Robert, who's site becomes more and more a forum of good will and brotherhood,
Namasté, :-)
Isabel

Dear Aditya, thank you for a very helpful piece of advice. I try every day to thank the universe for what I have, but taking it one step further is something I overlooked. Amazing!
And Robert, I'm excited about Venus and Mars. They are in trine to my Scorpio midheaven. And yesterday I got my long-awaited Word upgrade so I have the tools I need to pursue my creative writing here at home. My head is swimming with the possibilities.
Blessings to evryone. :)

Yes Venus and Mars...my Mars ruled Arian is back,,,right on cue and moving ever closer. It feels like it may now finally be possible:)))
Posted by: Marie | April 21, 2009 at 08:22 AM
I'm delighted the cosmic lovers will be intertwined for the next few months too... I'm contemplating the relevance of having Venus turning direct exactly on my Mercury and then having Mars conjoin transiting Venus at this point before they head into Aries.
May everyone finally see form and fulfillment in their goals and wishes now that spring is truly underway.

Kinda both feelings here, ready to leave behind one phase and enter the next, but not knowing how it all plays out. I've been through a rocky few years and maybe there's more ahead, but I do feel a sense of gently closing the door and walking ahead to what waits.
and this song popped into my head:
"....A good friend of mine, studies the stars, Venus and Mars are alright tonight..."

Hi Juliet - Yes, it's truly a new time with the inner planets finally all in Aries or Taurus! We're done with Venus RX with Mars in Pisces!
Hi SB - Well, I suppose the best thing about beginnings is that we don't know how the journey will end up, but at least we know we're on the way. Several people I know have expressed that it feels different somehow. Now that your ruler has done its review, I'm sure you're ready to rock!
Hi Isabel - Yes, it's a great time of transition. Venus and Mars in Aries assists us in being our most genuine self as we break on through to the other side.
Hi Viki - You're definitely clearing out relationships that have nothing to do with who you've become these past several years. The Venus-Mars is triggering a new set of deep decisions that will ultimately show you've reoriented in major ways. Just wait until Uranus crosses the Venus SD point!
Hi Elizabeth - Yes, ever since Venus originally went through late Pisces back in February, we've been preparing for the new initiatives happening now. Breathe into the promise, and you're most welcome for the lighthouse effect.
Hi Annette - Well, I suspect even in your grief you're distilling clarity and truth despite the chaos of the astral reactions. Definitely, becoming a Master necessitates that we feel EVERYTHING there is to feel. The challenge is not to let feelings deflect us from our ability to observe the movements of the lower self with dispassion, discrimination, and detachment. And of course, not play to unhelpful sensations that only frustrate us while we spin our wheels. Grief comes in waves. I outlined the principle in my book "Love Dad." Knowing that can help us anticipate the overwhelming sensations and manage the process as best as possible. No, we ALWAYS have the power to shape our lives. The trick is that timing is everything on when and how the waves crest and break.
Hi Robyn - First, stop fighting. Detach. Nothing is worth the drama. Pisces are somewhat conflicted at this time due to past Pluto and current Uranus transits. He'll see a greater vision or split next year when Jupiter moves across his Sun. If your dreams show bad things, it's time to move into deeper awareness and choose to chart a course that won't lead you into bad things. Detachment is ultimate, since in the end we cannot even hold on to our bodies. Stop being scared. That's a useless emotion. As I wrote in my grief manual, "Love Dad," - "sometimes the answer is no." As for a piece of what you said, we ALWAYS are "smart enough" to receive our heart's desire (though smarts don't have much to do with that.) You will learn to be able to be happy when you get out of your own way and allow your Higher Self to steer your boat.
Hi Aditya - Yes, often our happiness is determined by what we focus on. When we count our blessings each day and hour then we're not caught in what isn't working as we would like. Yours is a very good meditation, since waking sets the intention and going to sleep programs the subconscious. Pure metaphysical psychology. Truly, the good in our lives is much better than the bad we suffer from our attachments. IMHO, you make perfect sense.;-)
Hi Isabel - Thanks for the confirmation. Of course, together we're all smarter and more capable and aware than we are individually. Programming the subconsciousness is always beneficial if we are to manage the imagery that can lead us to our Highest Self rather than allow it to drive us into a ditch. Autosuggestion is one of the major tools to reprogram our lives.
Hi Valerie - By now I trust you realize that this site, and all of us together, are taking it "one step further." All of us together are really much more aware than we are separately. Upgrade is a great metaphor.
Hi Marie - When Venus and Mars dance, then worlds come together. The trick is to remember that each has their own dance to do, together and separately!
Hi Matt - This time should bring many things together in your life. Perhaps Venus SD on your Mercury shows you have a "beautiful mind" coming? I echo your blessing to all who come here.
Hi AnneTexas - Edgar Mitchell is on record for many years that truly, "we are not alone." Thank Heaven! I believe that once contact is forever established, then perhaps we can make "war no more," and be about the healing of the planet, the races, and the genders. So much suffering, so much promise. What a planet!
Hi Jeri - We usually don't know what the end of the journey is like when we begin. Sometimes walking into the unknown is better than clinging to a reality that isn't happening any more, and wasn't what we hoped for. Of course, studying the stars is a useful thing to do... Thank Heaven that sometimes indeed, Venus and Mars are alright tonight....

Hi Robert,
Yoga teacher said to me today, Funny what chakra shut down this week however seems your heart chakra is fully open. She intuited that I exhibited a pound of compassion towards my partner this week. She was right! Upon your advice I did a free astro-chart and discovered that I have sun in cancer & taurus rising. Today was very peculiar with butterflies in my stomach all day, it panned out as an enlightened friend said I was in the "Matrix" (very foreign concepts to me).
Posted by: Sue | April 24, 2009 at 09:45 PM
Thanks Robert!!!! :)
Posted by: SB | April 25, 2009 at 12:07 PM
Hi Sue - Well, having an open heart is the best way to travel! Guarantees that when the First Higher Spiritual Initiation is embraced that your love will be even greater. (And while you're at it, keep working at acquiring Spiritual knowledge!) Compassion is always a good thing, though one of my hardest lessons this lifetime is to not allow my compassion to be mistaken for weakness. Not sure which "matrix" your friend was referring to, but hopefully it is the One Life we overlapping sentient spheres of Loving Light share.
Hi SB - Yes, and just think how energetic your ruler will be as it dances with Mars, first in Mars' realm then in her own realm! By the time July shows up, you'll be thoroughly familiar with how to get it in gear and make it real!
