| Current Retrogrades Pluto: 4/6/10 - 9/13/10: Pluto retrograde gives us the impetus and time to take care of unfinished business. We have no choice; there is no change coming until we make the necessary changes waiting to be made. I recommend looking at your "to-do" list, setting priorities, and then putting on your calendar(s) what needs your attention each month of this Pluto retrograde. Finishing that list will lighten your heart and bring you contentment. Ceres: 5/28/10 - 8/7/10 Ceres is an asteroid concerned with loving and nurturing emotions. When she retrogrades she bombards us with feelings of loss and desolation, similar to Demeter's feelings when Hades kidnapped her daughter Persephone. Things are probably not as doomy-gloomy as we think they are. Give yourself time to properly evaluate situations before acting. Neptune: 5/31/10 - 11/7/10 Neptune is another of the large, slow-moving, outer planets whose retrograde affects us for many months. During a Neptune retrograde, feelings cannot be trusted as our creative energies are dampened and dreams can become nightmares. One more reason to take your time in making decisions. I recommend performing whatever rituals help to keep you balanced; also rituals that calm the mind/brain, promote healing sleep, and bring pleasant dreams.Chiron: 6/4/10 - 11/5/10 The asteroid Chiron is our teacher; when he retrogrades we become more aware of our flaws and imperfections. This is a necessary thing, because if we never faced our weaknesses we would never have the chance to grow them to strengths. I recommend seizing this opportunity for growth and self-improvement. Uranus: 7/5/10 - 12/5/10 Another of the large outer planets, a Uranus retrograde continues to force us to take things slow. Innovation isn't likely to work well during this retrograde; sticking with the tried-and-true, with what you know already works, is often the better choice. Perseverance furthers!Jupiter: 7/23/10 - 11/18/10 When this "planet of expansion" retrogrades, the result is often a feeling of stagnation and limitation. Combined with the other current retrogrades, this one reinforces the energies prompting us to examine where we are and make the necessary adjustments before moving forward. If you expect great strides forward, you are likely to be disappointed; if you rejoice in the tiniest baby steps that move you closer to your long-range goal, you are likely to sleep more comfortably.
)O( Retrograde cycles regularly repeat in our lives; the doomy-gloomy feelings that can be a by-product of them need not drag us down into the depths of despair. Just as there are times for recognizing and celebrating all the things we do well and all our successes, there needs to also be a time to be brutally honest with ourselves and recognize the areas that need improvement. If we never paid attention to our weaknesses, we would never have the opportunity to grow them into strengths. I recommend that you seize this opportunity to study your Self, note where improvements are needed, and then start to make those improvements.)O( If you would like to be added to Kate's e-mail list please send your message to:kate_braun2000@yahoo.comThis list receives the Seasonal Messages Kate send out 8 times a year, reminders of not only ways to celebrate the solstices, equinoxes, and cross-quarters, but also reminders of upcoming events in which Kate will be participating.
