Spiritual Astrology in August 2022 – Uranus Stationary Retrograde at 19 Taurus

by Robert Wilkinson

On August 24, Uranus goes stationary retrograde at 19 Taurus. This is a major phase shift when we begin to review what has revolutionized and/or awakened in the Taurus part of our charts. This one has brought us to a new spontaneity and outpouring of our most natural Self as we stand on the threshold of our Uranian review of the shadow zone between 19 Taurus and 15 Taurus, the “Ox Point.” Our review begins with the spontaneity of a purified mind leading us back to Uranus’ SD degree of 2021 which took us through a journey of “tests of character.”

Astrology Class – Are You an Activator, Stabilizer, or Distributor?

by Robert Wilkinson

In Astrology, we have three modes of action. There are signs which initiate activity, signs which consolidate and stabilize activity, and signs which are interactive and look for ways to “spread the word.” As we have all 12 signs in our charts, we have all of these in our own unique combination. When we see our natural skills and strengths, then we naturally become the function we need to be in any circumstance. Today we look at the qualities of our actions from the angle of mastering all the modes of expression.
