Hey Dulce!

I am strongly considering moving back to Grand Junction in January. You were so helpful with my decision in moving to Seattle- what do you think about this possible relocation to this place at this time? It would only be for 1 1/2 to 2 years.

On that same note, what does my chart have to say about me (the bull of bulls) living with a Capricorn woman (birth date x/x/xx) and an Aquarian male (birth date x/x/xx)? My intuition is telling me it will be magical, but what do you think?

Thanks!

Danielle R

Dear Danielle,

Thanks for your question! Grand Junction is not the best place for you to be long term. When you live in this area Chiron, the wounded healer, sits on the western edge of your chart. This can indicate sensitivity in relationship or even knowing people who are wounded or sick in some way. But, Chiron in this position can be helpful as it creates sensitivity towards your work and helps you orient to what you most love to do. This location also places stern Saturn in the first house of your identity which can feel heavy over time. So, a few years there will be fine. Relocating now is fine also though I recommend you get yourself situated before Saturn opposes your Taurus Sun which will be in the fall of 2013, though you will experience Saturn early, and briefly in January 2013. This particular energy helps you commit and focus on the tasks at hand but can feel hard if you do not like where you are and what you are doing. It’s a learning period!

Regarding your room mates – you’re right – there is a magical quality to the arrangement! Keep in mind that you are experiencing enormous cosmic energy at the moment – Pluto crosses the top of your chart over the next year helping you find meaning and personal power in your career and in your understanding of yourself. Also, Uranus the Awakener connects with your ruling planet Venus now through to the spring of 2013 giving you plenty of options and choices, but possibly creating a little confusion as you wonder what you value. The reason I mention these two planets at work in your chart is that your two roommates have freedom loving, rebellious, upbeat, unusual charts. They are social people and may lead unusual lives. If you need a stable environment you might want to discuss your needs with them. They may have very different ideas than you. An in depth discussion or two should help establish everyone’s needs and create an atmosphere of harmony. With so much going on in your outer world a stable place to come home to is a good idea.

Blessings and enjoy!

Dear Dulce,
I am hoping that you might be able to give me some insight as to when I might be getting a full-time job!

I have so many balls in the air, and nothing seems to be falling into place. I've given of my time and expertise, made small bits of money here and there, but nothing permanent has manifested yet.

Is there anything in my chart that might give an indication when I can expect to go back to work full time? I am not the kind of person who can stand to sit around all the time, and I'm tired of cleaning my house! LOL

Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated. I am looking forward to having you work on my chart again on my birthday - hopefully I will be working by then and can afford it.

Sincerely,
DD

Hi DD

I’m sure there’s a lot going on! You’re a busy 10th house Virgo and have many irons in the fire, probably all the time! You also like to be involved in projects that improve situations and are of service to others. You’re part of a generation of folks with Uranus and Pluto conjunct in Virgo – a generation of movers and shakers. The downside of this inventive, feisty cosmic signature is that sometimes things don’t stick. You move in, get the necessary job done and move on. Think back on your professional life and see if this is not so.

Having said that - your job ship is about to come in! The planet of abundance is Jupiter and next year Jupiter will enter Aries. When you were born Jupiter was in Aries. So, in 2011, you will experience a Jupiter return, something that only happens once every 12 years. Jupiter is a highly benevolent energy and generally brings big and good things with it. Your Jupiter is retrograde in Aries suggesting a powerful attraction to new beginnings. If we add this to your innovative, out-of-the-box problem solving abilities, you may be attracted to an unusual project with uncertain outcomes.

A wonderful opportunity is on its way, if it’s not already here. Will it last? That’s up to you.

Stern, rule-oriented Saturn opposes your Jupiter in the summer and fall of 2011 testing your commitment and seeing whether or not you’d like to remain engaged in the project/job. At the same time, you may have to restrict your energies or carefully manage your time as Saturn conjuncts your Mars (your life force and drive). As your Mars is in Libra, this transit will test your partnerships with others, especially with men.

So back to your question dear DD – when can you go back to work fulltime? By spring 2011 at the latest and early next month (September, 2010) at the soonest when the Sun crosses the top of your chart - the part that corresponds to your profession.

In the meantime, there’s more than enough going on to keep you busy. Your mind is working overtime and creativity and connections with others abound.

May you be blessed, supported and lack for nothing, during this piecemeal time

Hello Dulce

My question is why is it that every wants me to wait on them and give them all of the intuitiveness
That I have to offer but don’t want to pay me? Plus I have my own business and I have had people
get merchandise and not want to pay for it! I have to almost beg them for my money!

They have given me checks that are no good and had the nerve to get mad with me because their
Check bounced! Jesus I need to know what is going on here with people releasing my monies?

You are such a Blessing!

Dear Y,

Thanks for your heartfelt letter. Prosperity and ethics are twin concepts and one is not found without the other. Of course, there are people who are wealthy and who are not ethical and people who are ethical but not materially wealthy. But you’ll find that in either of the above scenarios there is a distinct lack. The key to making ethics and prosperity one thing is to set very clear limits for yourself and your clients and customers. With clear boundaries everybody knows what to expect and you all get to enjoy a good relationship centered on the exchange of services and goods.

It seems clear that you can only work with cash or with a cashier’s check and you cannot provide a service or release the goods until you are paid.

Those very simple guidelines may be difficult for you to commit to but if you’d like to enjoy good business you should give them a try. Your astrological chart shows a tremendous amount of upheaval associated with your sense of personal value. This leads to questioning your own skills even as much as you promote them. In other words dear Y, you know you’ve got something precious but at the same time you also doubt it! You doubt your own value. This is quite the conflict, and on an unspoken level, your clients pick up your doubt even as they relish your intuitive tidbits.

Implementing a few simple rules, like the one mentioned above, should be very helpful. With Uranus and Jupiter poised to leap into the professional area of your chart there is no better time than now to begin. This powerful duo will help you attract clients who respect your work. Stern Saturn’s move into the bottom of your chart helps you root yourself in common sense practices, thus avoiding the edge where you are tossed around in constant conflict. It’s time to simplify and to wean yourself of drama. The eclipse to your south node this July will be helpful to you as you let go of complication.

You really are good at what you do! It’s time you believe it.

Dulce

Dulce,


I know this may sound like a broken record, but I have become more and more disconcerted with the relationship between J. and I. I spoke with her super briefly on Christmas and that was the first communication we had in 4 months, and now it seems that her phone number has changed and she won't reply to emails either. This is super frustrating. The question is do I write her off completely or do I allow the fires of hope to remain alive. Again her birthday is (xx). I'm really torn my brain says let her go and be upset, but my heart says hold on and be forgiving...what do I do?

D

Dear D,

The answer to your dilemma lies not with J but with you. You are ready to make a commitment and have been ever since your recent Saturn return. This significant rite of passage helps determine your path and cement you in what you want to do with your life. It is clear you want partnership, and quite possibly, family also.

You may however, be conflicted about this yearning. On one hand you’re ready to step into adult hood as it were, and on another, you do not want to let your bachelor days go that easily. Thus, you’ve chosen an elusive potential mate, J, who is not cooperating with you and will not return your messages. The message from her seems clear – which is why we must look to you for the answer to your question.

Are you ready to enter into a real relationship, with a real, viable match? Or do you prefer the elusive nature of a dream woman; one who lives in your fantasies and is here today and gone tomorrow? You’re a two minded Gemini with Neptune the dreamer, directly opposite the light of your Gemini Sun. This combination lends you great gifts with music, art, and photography, but can also lead you take you to castles in the air and insubstantial musings on romance.

Your work now is to imagine a relationship that feels real, acts real, and yet somehow fulfills your fantasies. This means dating other women and seeing them for who they are and whether or not they can meet you in dream land. Rest assured, one of them will.

Blessings

Hi Dulce,

Please explain to me astrologically why I’m being increasingly disorganized and unfocused as I’m becoming more and more passionate about my art and healing touch training?

Thanks
Donna
April 22, 1953 USA


Hi Donna,

You were born to be passionate! Your highly creative Leo Moon (emotions) is held tight by controlling, yet passionate Pluto. You’ve been passionate and creative your whole life but could never let go, until now. Now wounded healer Chiron (there’s your healing touch), abundant Jupiter (teaching and studies) and dreamy inspiring Neptune are exactly opposite your Moon/Pluto. In other words dear Donna, it’s time to open from the heart and to enjoy your artistic gifts! It’s time to not only open to give but to open to receive. The problem is, Neptune is fuzzy and confusing and Jupiter wants to do it all; thus your current dilemma.

Enjoy. It’ll only be until the end of this year (2009) that these planets will linger in this sensitive, passion releasing spot. But then following that you’ve got erratic liberating Uranus tickling your ascendant for a full year! Oh my! What will you do with that outrageously wonderful, electrical, genius, yet somewhat disruptive energy?

We’ll talk about that more face to face.

Blessings and have fun!

When is this going to end???
I lost a good paying job b/c of a change in personality from meds I was on due to MS.I am trying to find a place to live after my relationship w/my boyfriend went kaput.I am having extreme pain in my leg due to joint and muscle issues NOT related to MS.
I have gained 20 pounds and feel just miserable.

Hello Blondebat,

I’m sorry to hear of your troubles. There’s a lot going on in your chart and my heart goes out to you.

Firstly, powerful Pluto is at the top of your chart and secondly, unpredictable Uranus is on your Pisces ascendant. This indicates that the entire structure of your life is reorganizing. It’s going to be an exciting time at best and a crazy one at worst. Your intention is the only way you can steer these changes to a successful outcome.

In these changing times you have to guide your life in the direction you want it to go. By the middle of next year you will be at the place you want to be. In order to make this work out well, with great success, you must not give up. You must hold the course, spend time in gratitude and realize this will all soon be over.

Finally, you’re beginning the process of your Chiron return. This is something that happens to all of us around the age of 50. Chiron’s passage through your chart is merely drawing your attention to where you need to heal. You’ll be completely through this powerful rite of passage by winter 2011. Now, the symptoms you’re describing can leave at any time. You don’t have to wait until then.

Chiron operates through both pain and consciousness. Currently all you’re experiencing is the pain part of Chiron. Chiron can and does, usher in tremendous enlightenment and peace. Your job is to have compassion for yourself as you address the issues you’ve raised one by one. I have made a wonderful CD on Chiron - you can order it for yourself  here Classes

There is a most important question you can ask yourself at this time “What do I want my life to look like?” Keep the answer to this question most powerfully in your mind and held in the cells of your body. It is the direction you are going.

Blessings to you as you navigate this difficult, but exciting time. It’s highly possible your life may look better than it ever has before by the time this is all over!

Dulce,

I was hoping that you could provide information regarding the Mayan/Aztec calendar's prediction of the end of current period of "time", particularly any astrological, correlation between their prediction of the end of the world as we know in December of 2012?


Thank You in advance for your time!

Patti
Cancer from North Dakota

Hi Patti,

Thanks for your patience and this excellent and timely question. Much anticipated attention has been given to this subject. My studies lead me to this understanding: that there is an emergence of the “underworld” the hidden shadow of the human collective unconscious that emerges from the dark with the Dual-Creator God who comes in, in 2011. (Calleman). This archetypal shadow is revealed so that the world may heal its dualism; the same dualism that Descartes introduced over 300 years ago and we’ve lived with ever since.

Here’s a western astrological perspective for you:

There are new planet placements in the chart for December 21st 2012 – planets that have already begun moving into these positions, like Pluto in Capricorn for the first time in 249 years, Neptune in Pisces for the first time in over 160 years, Chiron in Pisces for the first time in 50 years, and Uranus in Aries for the first time in 84 years. You get the picture - this is a powerful scene. But there is no one thing in particular that says an ending is nigh.

One thing is new however, and that is the winter solstice occurs at the center of our Milky Way December 21, 2012. Apparently this has not happened for over 26,000 years. But how can this hurt us? The Galactic Center is just shy of 27 degrees Sagittarius. Sagittarius is the great teacher and the source of much wisdom. Perhaps through this portal will come a great teacher or further enlightening knowledge. We'll have to wait and see!

We must keep in mind is that things occur in cycles, and unfold as such. We are currently now, in a major world shift in which all the rules are re-arranging themselves. I suggest you read my recent articles. They provide the unfolding drama of these absolutely incredible times.

Astrologer Stephanie Austin says and most astrologers including myself agree: “The year 2012, the date given for this shift, (dimensional shift) is not the end of the world, just the end of how we have been experiencing it.”

I feel this is an accurate statement especially in light of our awareness that we create our own reality. Indigenous people knew this, especially when they participated in shamanic rituals and dreams states; states we lost a long time ago when we became attached to the linear western paradigm of time is money and so on.

Astrologer Philip Sedgwick says this about the Mayan Calendar based on a recent week-long astrology conference where it was a hot topic of discussion: “Deal with the patterns now and to come in the next year or so and forget about 2012. The large consensus was 2012 is a deal of consciousness, not cataclysm. Reformation and change, yes. Actually, the Earth has lived through cycles equivalent to those touted by the conclusion of this Mayan Calendar. It made it through. As we can make it through now and more easily, I suspect, if a return to well-rooted consciousness prevails"

I say “Amen brother.” That is my conclusion as well.

Let’s end this discussion with a quote from Carl Calleman PhD out of his book Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness. “We are all one. The universe, our galaxy, our planet, and all living manifestations are all under the same law of creation and are synchronized to the energy changes describe by the tzolkin. Our destiny will not be fully experienced before Day Seven of the Universal Underworld. The last uinal of creation starts October 8 and ends on the tzolkin day 13 Ahau, October 28, 2011. This is when the purpose of creation is fulfilled.”

If you know what the purpose of creation is dear Patti, please let me know.

With love,
Your astrologer,
Dulce

I am now looking for a new career. How can I best be of service in these difficult times and survive and flourish as well? What's next?

Susan

Dear Susan,

There is no greater time than now to re-invent yourself. Pluto’s recent transit across the oldest part of your astrological chart has transformed your life in deep and mysterious ways. You have full cosmic permission to become anything you want. However, there are some restraints. This year you appear to be held to your duties and obligations above all else. Discover yourself yes, but don’t forget your duties.

Your intuition is right on – you want to be of service to others, indeed, your development involves service, especially at this time.

Taking a closer look at your chart, I see that you may choose some position or task that benefits the helpless or lost. This comes from the progression of your intelligent Aquarian Sun through last degrees of compassionate Pisces. In other words, re-invent yourself- yes, but forget about others – no. You have much karma to fulfill over the next three plus years before you can do something that’s just for you.

What exactly you choose to do during this time is up to you. You will know which path to choose through the use of your excellent intuition and through the connections and feeling you get from others. You are very talented and can do just about anything that interests you. Don’t get too involved though, as by the middle of this year you find your attention diverted to other areas. Keep an open mind, be flexible, and possibly take short term jobs, until you discover exactly what this other career diversion might be.

By mid 2013 you’ll be at the door of your new life and career. Part of it will be a harvest of all the professional seeds you’ve sown over the last 14 years. The last seven years (some of this being the years you’re in now) yield particularly rich results in 2013 as you reap the rewards of your networking and good works.

What’s next is what you make of it.

Enjoy!
Your astrologer,
Dulce

Hiya,

Currently I am working on my Masters degree in Plant Ecology and hoping to finish in June (Which will be when I finish school and move into the 'real world' for the first time). I have also recently been diagnosed with depression, and started taking medication and seeing a counselor (which is also awkward because admitting to a mental illness has a sort of stigma in my family). To say I am going through a major transition in life is an understatement. It is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel because I am so wrapped up in all of these changes. I do feel like I am becoming a different person (in a good way). I am hoping you have some advice from my charts on if there is a light at the end of the tunnel and what awaits me these next 6 months while I try to finish my degree.

Thank you so much! ~ C
Birth date: December 5th, 1984 Colorado

Hello dear C,

Congratulations on nearing completion of your Masters! That is quite an accomplishment.

I’m going to keep it simple in answering your question. You have a complicated and interesting chart and I look forward to the day we can meet face to face and I can guide you through the complexities that make you uniquely you!

As to the next six months: your focus seems to move from your health and work into the area of partnership – both for working relationships and personal ones. This is a very positive beneficial move that occurs every 12 years. You will notice that by this year’s end things will lighten for you as you receive support from others. I anticipate that you will find good employment with like-minded souls.

As to your mental health: wounded healer Chiron has made a long sustained pass over your Mars which represents (out of many things) your physical and mental health as your Mars is in the intellectual sign of Aquarius. In the summer of 2009 benevolent Jupiter will pass over this same point bringing healing balm where once there was crisis. If you can be patient, you may well and truly be done with medication, under your doctor’s supervision of course, by that time.

This time period also corresponds to Pluto’s pass over your thinking Mercury. Pluto’s connection with Mercury often leads to mental imbalance for a brief while. Pluto’s obsessive qualities help us achieve huge amounts of mental work and keep us up late at night thinking and thinking but this can deplete the synaptic gap and the nuero-transmitters that keep us mentally healthy. In other words dear C, the spot you find yourself in now may well be due to mental exhaustion. The good news is that it is passing, leaving you a more developed person in the long run. (We can talk more about what this means to you when we meet.)

Be brave and keep going! This is not a stigma but a temporary condition after a long run!

I am excited about what lies ahead for you!

Hi Dulce,

I hope you are having a wonderful summer. I have a question about Sedna. Does this entity, planet, essence...show up in your readings? If so, is she active in some way in mine at this time?

Thank you!!

Jo Ann
March 1948 CO USA

Dear Jo Ann,

Summer has been wonderful, thank you! I wish I had spent more time on the river or in the mountains but I treasure every moment I had in nature.

Speaking of nature and Sedna … they are deeply entwined. Sedna is a powerful archetypal influence whose emergence corresponds to our current global crisis of warming, species extinction, rain forest devastation, erosion, flooding and so on. Sedna’s presence heralds a powerful warning to everyone currently on planet Earth that it is up to us, each one of us, to reduce our carbon footprint and to restore, rather than take, whenever and wherever possible.

In light of our current financial crisis in the USA Sedna’s role becomes even clearer. We are to get by with what we have. It’s important to cherish what we already own rather than consume more. Desperate as these times are, they are also an invitation to appreciate what we have, to be more fully present, and to treat our bounty with reverence. This is Sedna’s message.

In mythology, Sedna survived an undersea drowning through sheer will. Her fingers, cut from her hands by her father desperate to escape a huge storm created by Sedna’s angry husband, became sea creatures. In other words, she shows us how to regenerate from nothing. She shows us how to survive.

All of us currently living have Sedna in either the pioneering sign of Aries (1867 – 1968) or the earth centered sign of Taurus (1968- 2024) . In your chart Jo Ann, Sedna is in Aries and sits in your house of highest potential. Somehow Sedna’s message corresponds directly with your message. She forms a perfect trine with other fire planets in your chart giving you drive, ambition and a personal philosophy that motivates you and others toward a healthier, happier planet. You are a Sedna person Jo Ann. You are a survivor. You may be interested in a new world. You may have an innate sense of where we’re going as a species and may have new ideas with which to guide others.

Though Sedna is in a fire sign in your chart – she is a watery entity. For you, Jo Ann, a watery being yourself, it suggests a precious connection to spirit via the emotional body. The closer you listen to your emotions the more Sedna will whisper to you across the vast distances of space.

Bless you in your work!

Hi, Dulce,

My life seems to have come to a complete halt. My two best work buddies retired on the same day two months ago. I now have no confidants at work, and it's a long drudge every day until quitting time. I love my job, but laughter and friendly faces make it so much better and now that's gone.

I lack energy and purpose, and see my life winding down. My family have all passed away now, except for my only child, a grown son who has recently moved back in with me, but who has problems of his own (financial and emotional).

I cannot retire as I struggle with finances. What's ahead for me? I need a little life line and something to life my spirits. Thank you.

Rondi
August 7, 1945
Oregon

P.S. I have been reading your site for a long time, and today subscribed and became a member.

Dear Rondi,

Bless you in this time of change and loss. Clearly things are a little tough for you and the way ahead seems foggy. Here’s the astrospeak for it all: Neptune oppose ascendant, Chiron oppose Sun/ascendant, Jupiter conjunct south node, Saturn in the first house, and Pluto oppose Venus.

But let’s not get hung up on the mysterious language of astrology – unless you want to join me down at Gateway, CO for a week starting September 14th where you’ll learn what all of this means. Though I would suggest you get the Chiron CD from me as you’re a Chiron being in the middle of a Chiron transit.

Basically you have described your position very well. We all need something to look forward to and quite frankly you can’t see the way ahead, and what used to be joyful has become sheer drudgery. But, there is a cosmic reason, or should we say that the Divine has a grand plan here. And that grand plan, my dear, is to activate and open your incredible creative, warm and loving heart. You are far more than your job! You have much more to offer and other places in which to shine.

Why were you born dear Rondi? The astrological response would be to say that you’re here to share your love and to open your home and heart (Venus conjunct north node in Cancer). It’s interesting that your grown son has chosen this time to return to your life.

As a fun loving Leo, playfulness and loyalty come easily to you but now that your best confidantes are gone who is going to receive that love of yours? This is a major theme for your life. The questions you’re asking now are keys to your soul’s development. What has meaning for you? What is valuable to you? You have a unique signature in your chart that suggests you are capable of inspiring and cheering others up. And, looking at the way the planets are moving around your chart you have yet to fully develop this wonderful gift.

You are also tremendously resourceful (Pluto conjunct Sun and Moon) and have the ability to start your life over when you’re periodically knocked back. It’s time to activate your get-up and go Rondi. It’s time to evaluate your gifts, skills and values. You are needed. There is a community orientation to your chart. You’re here to give your gift to the community. Your lucky friends at work have been your community but they are no longer. Now you must stretch beyond the work environment into the larger one. Where are you most needed? Where do you want to apply your skills and to whom do you want to give your gift? It would be a sad day for the planet should you decide that you have nothing left to do for others. What a waste of your wonderful personality!

It’s not out of the question that once you do inventory on your talents and values you’ll be drawn into a new social group which might provide employment for you. I know change is not that appealing to you and you may dread having to take on new tasks or challenges, yet that appears to be what lies ahead for you. You are being invited to grow and that growth occurs when the path in front of us fills with obstacles. You’re invited to take a detour dear Rondi, into the unexplored regions of your talents. This is going to require your faith and your great sense of humor.

Have fun and let us know how it turns out!
