Though a medical astrologer, I have not posted very much of an astrological nature on Substack. However, with so much going on in the world and change seeming to be inevitable, I would like to take a few moments to discuss what some call the “Finger of God configuration” and others call the “Y formation” that is currently gaining exactitude in the sky.
People have different levels of understanding, not to mention acceptance, of astrology so please bear with me as I explain the yod. Obviously, there are 360 degrees in a circle. In horoscopes, the gateway of the soul is the ascendant which is usually drawn at the nine o’clock position of the horoscope, the Eastern Gate where the motivation of the soul is shown.
A quincunx is a 150 degree angle anywhere in the chart. However, the natural chart that starts at the first house, would have a quincunx going from the ascendant to the cusp of the sixth house, health, and going the opposite direction to the cusp of the eighth house, death. These are very strong “parting” aspects meaning one makes irrevocable changes, except in the case of a yod.
Now, try to imagine you are journeying along through life and have two options. You can go to one destination/frequency or another. The yod in question now has the Sun, representing self as in conscious self as well as leaders having the option of going towards Neptune in late Pisces or Uranus in late Taurus. These are the two planets behind the miasm in the third eye. If the vision is clear, Neptune will influence the right hemisphere of the brain and Uranus would organize the manifestation of the vision via the left hemisphere.
Without the guidance of Neptune, Uranus is often eccentric rather than original. Neptune can be delusional, but when detached from irrelevant influences, it can be a clear channel for deeply mystical revelations and guidance. It can also be deceptive if motivations are impure and clarity is lacking. The rule for proper relationship to Neptune should probably be to permit the influence only if the ego can be put aside along with all personal opinions and expectations.
Uranus is the magician whose primary task is to manifest the will of Heaven on Earth. However, as noted, not everyone functions at this level and they filter impressions through layers and layers of fog that obscure the possibilities that exist.
In the context of the current world situation, we have been exposed to inordinately convoluted influences through intrusions on our natural state by those with hidden agendas. However, there are individuals functioning with compassion for the plight of our Planet and its inhabitants as well as many with innovative ideas for making order out of chaos.
Important meetings are scheduled for the next few days, and it is probably safe to assume that changes will follow these gatherings of the so-called leaders of the world. For sure, there will be major changes in the financial system, and there will also be sinister forces trying to deploy false solutions for alleged problems such as health, weather, controversies, conflicts, and competition.
Speaking for myself, I see people who have penetrated the miasms and cleared their vision as well as people whose positions are of no use whatsoever to the future of life on Earth. If people are viewing through their mists, they probably subscribe to mainstream portrayals of what is presented as reality; but the truth is their vision is obscured by falsehoods that are going be retired and replaced by Truth.
Given the forthcoming U.S. election, what is important is that if speaking to the masses, one has to reach the voters on the playing field that seems normal to them, but this stage is cluttered with ideas that are irrelevant and obsolete. This includes our ideas surrounding money, wages, earning power, spending, financial systems, taxation, and right use of resources. The terminology I have used for both of the major parties is that the thinking behind the platforms is obsolete. However, if one were to present a radically new vision, it might fall on deaf ears.
Lurking in the background of what could and should happen is the faltering grip of Pluto on those with the power to influence and control. Many will fall in the days to come, and some will switch sides as the most expedient way to avoid personal disaster.
For individuals who are faced with important decisions, the way the yod will play out will probably involve flirtations with making major changes or procrastinating in the hope that more perfect options will present in the future. Since both Uranus and Neptune are retrograde, my advice is to observe carefully and defer decisions until the planets are direct, which is December for Neptune and February for Uranus. Regardless, one of the blessings of a yod is that if a choice is regretted, one can change the choice to the other option(s) considered at the time of the first reaction.
The motion of the Sun is swift so this yod will come and go in less than a week, but important matters will probably be on the table at the global meetings. Those with planets in late Libra may feel the yod much more strongly than others.
It would not surprise me if some normally highly visible individuals more or less vanish from view or withdraw from the fray. It would also be likely that exposures of particulars from the past result in loss of face and popularity. Again, it is important to underscore that these transits are fleeting so observing possibilities but deferring decisions is probably the best path for most people.
