Sawasdeeka New Paradigmers,

Happy New Moon (conjunct Venus) Solstice! What a powerful combination! Especially so because the whole Sun/Moon/Venus stellium is square Saturn/Neptune in late Pisces just before heading into the cold, white north of old man Capricorn. For some reason I have always had this picture in my mind for Capricorn of a wise old man (like Gandalf) with a long white beard, holding a staff, and standing in the snow somewhere. Well, as you will hear in this week’s Pele report I wish there was a Gandalf around these days but don’t see anyone like him anywhere, do you?

This disillusionment (Neptune) with external authority (Saturn for many) may very well be part of the grand plan for humanity to finally get the idea that they need to develop their (our) own authority within. What better way than to have a bunch of dufuses (an old word from childhood but I hope you get the idea) running the show! When we can’t trust those in authority we are uncomfortably put in a position of needing to make the call ourselves.

This is hard work, but tremendous growth for us all! We have to do our own research, and then apply the seven virtues that I speak of in this week’s report.

Mercury/Virgo PRUDENCE (wisdom, discernment)

Venus/Libra JUSTICE (fairness, righteousness)

Saturn/Capricorn TEMPERANCE (self control, moderation)

Mars/Aries FORTITUDE (courage, strength)

Jupiter/Sagittarius FATIH (trust. devotion)

Sun/Leo HOPE (optimism, expectation)

Moon/Cancer CHARITY (love, kindness, generosity)

We can ask ourselves repeatedly (especially this week and right on through to New Year’s resolutions (which many are afraid to make anymore): Is it wise and fair? Do I have enough self control, courage, trust, optimism, love and kindness to pull it off? Do it right? Make it work? If not then I have some work to do on myself to whip this life into shape baby! Yeah!

This week’s song is “Are You Ready?” by Pacific Gas & Electric! https://youtu.be/y4ZQ31O2M7Y?si=EJCAfx2klv25hktx

So Much Love,
