(Pluto re-enters Capricon. Mercury enters Gemini. Saturn to retrograde in Pisces.)

A golf club is first swung backwards, before it is swung forwards. The backwards movement creates power. The forward movement creates “change.”

Back and forth movement like this shows up everywhere in nature and in numerous human domains. It’s very important to observe.

It is impossible to progress with unresolved issues. Your upbringing, you familial relationships, your social conditioning, negatively affecting psychological patterning to name a few.

If you are interested in abiding peace, bliss, or simply just desire sanity then it becomes imperative to look back every so often, tie up loose ends, and move forward cleaner and clearer.

This is the time for that. We know because of the retrograde movements of the psychic surgeon, Pluto, and the master teacher, Saturn.

What unhealed business are you carrying?

This author would wager sums that whatever it is, is currently in focus and has your attention. What is pissing you off? Making you depressed? Making you sad? Causing frustration, fear, or worry? Something is, and not just getting cut off in traffic, but something deeper, more chronic and vexing.

Whatever that something is is an invitation to look at what is still unhealed inside of yourself. Whatever the external trigger is is simply catalyst for that. This does not mean excuse bad behavior or avoid confrontation — it means, you also are required to look inside your own mind and heart for answers.

Something pulled these circumstances toward you, which can be a very hard pill to swallow in certain situations but that does not diminish the truth of the statement.

It’s about a 70/30 split in favor of resolving internal dynamics vs. external dynamics. In fact, watch how quickly the external resolves, when the internal is resolved. The two cannot be separated.

What are your quick reaction impulses for or against something. Those impulses, feverish in nature, clue you in to your deep-seated issues or gifts.

Perhaps you keep falling in love with the wrong type of person. Keep taking work that dims your light. There are infinite possibilities, so pay attention to what your particular impulses are, especially now. Write them down, even.

With this awareness in hand, you could experiment with not indulging the impulse, as you would any harmful habit you are trying to change. Yes, those first few days without “sugar” (broadly, speaking) are hard. Mind and body must adjust. The impulse is not being fed and like a toddler, screams out.

After some time, guess who gets back in control? You will probably feel a whole lot better for not acting on that extremely, very urgent, I can’t stop myself impulse. That thing is what’s keeping you stuck and bound to the current level.

And there’s nothing wrong with being stuck, if that’s what you want to do. You’re in charge.

There is no destination higher or lower than the other.

Everything revolves around who you want to be. Have you thought about that recently?

Free or bound. Those are our two primary conditions. If you want to be free, now you know the route to take. It is not better than any other route, apart from the fact that it gets you there.

Happy healing, friends. Keep your eyes open. Stay alert. And know whatever is knocking at your door is there to assist you in taking the next steps forward. 🙏🏻
