The Gemini Sun squares Chiron later today. It fits. The latest prediction of a rapture has not manifested. It has since been re-scheduled from the first day of Gemini to the first day of Scorpio. We don’t have Osama bin Laden to kick around anymore. Pro football is on hold and The Donald is down for the count.\u00a0The course of events has cleared away some distractions. Fewer distractions mean more time for action. In the context of this astrology that’s an opportunity get in touch with and unlock some discrepancies between how you think and how you feel.<\/p>\n

Action is what a square is about. It is nothing to be afraid of. Graphically, it is at least two objects at a right angle to each other. Besides that, there are three things to remember about the aspect. First, the signs involved have their quality in common — that is, cardinal, fixed or mutable. We cycle through each quality in a season, which means that to act is to be in harmony with that process.<\/p>\n

In addition, a square implies tension. Not between you and somebody else, rather on the inside. That is good news. The source is under your control. In this case, the interior tension is usually felt as stress. The key is to act. The hard part is that the action must be directed and not projected. That requires being self-aware as opposed to self-involved. It takes some practice.<\/p>\n

Finally, on top of placing you in accord with the cosmos and relieving the physical manifestations of emotional strain, a square properly addressed will promote growth. You end up stronger, wiser, and with improved aptitude for acting on the next challenge. What a wonderful thing to get relief and get better in one swell foop. The important thing is to act consciously.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the Sun is part of this particular tableau. The solar is as straightforward and pervasive in astrology as it is in your life. It is consciousness. It is a universal human experience. What person with the gift of sight has not seen it? Who has not observed its cycles and effects? Nobody needs to be told how Sol feels. It is day and it is light. It is simple. You know it as well as you know yourself.<\/p>\n

In the context of Gemini, a sign ruled by Mercury, the light of consciousness is brought to knowing your own mind. The quality of mutability reminds that you can change how you think. The associated element of air means the light of consciousness is not blocked or distorted. Air, of course, is also what we breathe.<\/p>\n

Chiron, on the other hand, is obscure, complex and lives in a cave. We are, however, fortunate to know it exists. While its apparent influence can be traced back to events before its discovery, knowing that it is there makes it a whole lot easier to work with. As a matter of fact, the most fundamental energetic expression of Chiron is awareness itself. This is especially true as regards to our physical bodies.<\/p>\n

Located as it is in Pisces, that Chironic awareness would currently find itself most naturally directed to how your body feels. However, Chiron’s close conjunction to Neptune, the modern ruler of that sign, may make it difficult to discern connections clearly. That dynamic could also be expanded by Jupiter, the traditional ruler of Pisces, currently located in Taurus, where Chiron was discovered. The corresponding element of water would be inclined to combine with all of that to flood our perceptions and leave us physically overwhelmed.<\/p>\n

It is the mutable quality of Pisces that is the saving grace in this circumstance. It is information that is available to our awareness. It lets us know that our feelings, no matter how powerful, are subject to our control and amenable to change at this time.<\/p>\n

A crucial time it is. We are on the eve of three eclipses in the period of a single lunation. Between those two New Moons, first in Gemini and then in Cancer, both Jupiter and the Sun will change signs and several planets will change direction. That’s a lot to work with. It would help matters if we were not working against ourselves. That’s the opportunity of Sun square Chiron. It allows us to seize on the idea that we can change how we think and how we feel if and when we want to.<\/p>\n

We can begin by allowing our minds to to do what they do best, conceive. Starting with the Sun we know so well, we can take the light and consciously breathe it in. We can then direct that breath to where air and illumination may be lacking but the power of awareness awaits. We can then use that awareness and attend to where our thoughts and feelings are not congruent with each other and we can work to make ourselves whole.<\/p>\n

Nobody is perfect. Such work is not done in a day. What you can do today is try it. Stop for a moment and feel your body. Locate a part where it does not feel quite right. Then look at the Sun and breathe it in towards that part. Be conscious of what happens and let that be your inspiration to act.<\/p>\n
