Astrology is a way of being aware of opportunity and challenge as well as a guide towards what responses are more appropriate than others. At the risk of disturbing a painful memory, it would do well to recall this time last year for a sense of perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Sol moved into Taurus on the same day that Chiron returned to Pisces for the first time in over four decades. Hopes were high. Then an ill-advised drilling operation in the Gulf of Mexico went worst-case on us. In the days and weeks that followed, a lot of us went through something very close to the Kubler-Ross model of grieving a loss that has yet to be sufficiently quantified. To make things worse, we often forgot each other. We engaged in more conflict than comforting.\u00a0Many of us were alone with our fears, sorrow and uncertainty. In our isolation, we were exploited. In our anger we forgot how to simply take responsibility for that which we are, simply, aware. It seems that we had either forgotten or did not know how to do some or all of these things.\u00a0That, or we had lost touch with the power we have to participate in creation.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Sun is coming back to Taurus and we have another chance to show what we can do. We have the opportunity to remember and use our power. We can take a simple evolutionary step and change the course of events by simply remembering that neither the astrology nor the established order can do for us what we have the power to do for ourselves, and for each other. We can be the Sun. We can bring the light. Hardly a day goes by when we do not have the chance to help another person breathe a little easier. Simply being open to others, conscious of their feelings or sensitive to their predicament is a huge step in ending isolation. An offer to help, no matter how small the gesture, is delicious icing on the cake.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We can bring our consciousness. There might be wisdom in what we fear to speak. Others might feel the same way. Sharing our thoughts with others is far more nourishing than the empty spiritual calories we are fed by the media. At the worst, we could find that our feelings and ideas need to be tempered and grounded before we harm ourselves. At best, we could find a common agreement that had remained hidden below the surface, like a vein of precious metal connecting us unawares. We could mutually discover and recognize the resources upon which a new future can be constructed.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Finally, we can bring the day. That is not to say that night is a bad thing. Only that it needs its compliment in order to be of value. The human race has endured a lot of darkness lately. The ambient technology is such that we have been through it together. Why then can we not experience the light of day as one? It needs to begin somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Now the Sun is about to leave the sign symbolizing\u00a0the initiation of spirit and soul as represented by\u00a0fire.\u00a0Now the source of light and life&#8217;s energy moves on to bring those qualities to a new sign representing the fixed state of matter awaiting animation. Let us be as the Sun to each other. Let us value our own lives and show it by bringing our life force to animate the state of matters with each other.\u00a0This very day will reveal an opportunity. Take responsibility for your awareness of that and do what you came here to do. Give yourself and the rest of us another chance.<\/p>\n<p><em>Offered In Service<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Len Wallick The Sun represents light, consciousness and day.&#8221; &#8211;Robert Hand (from &#8220;Horoscope Symbols&#8221;) The Sun enters Taurus on Wednesday morning (6:18 a.m. EDT) for most of you reading this.
