There is an emphasis on Mercurial matters this weekend as Mercury shifts into Aquarius this Saturday. Just before this ingress, Mercury merges with Pluto in Capricorn at 28°58' at 12:13 pm EST this Venus Day.

Mercury teaches one how to navigate the realms of Spirit and Matter, and as this psychopomp marries Pluto, the force of great transformation and rebirth, it is likely that communication could get intense.

It is as if long lost treasures and buried stowaway secrets are emerging from the dark swampland.

Give grace and space to others, as power struggles could arise from the depths. Ultimately, there is an opportunity to pause and reflect this weekend.

Pluto is beginning to conclude an extended journey in Capricorn, which began in 2008. In March, Pluto will make a debut in the sign of Aquarius until early June when Pluto retrogrades. Therefore, there are messages that are being relayed that offer great perspective.

You are invited to listen deeply and intently this weekend. Notice the signs and symbols that are being offered to you at this threshold. You may even wish to journal or create art to capture this time of transition.

I invite you to circle up with me in episode 78 of Stars, Stones and Stories for greater clues to this particular astrology.

This Saturday I will be offering astrology and tarot readings at the Mind, Body & Soul EXPO at 500 South Main Street Suite 113, Mooresville NC. Come receive a bounty of healing and say hello!

For the locals of AVL, I hope you will join me in Cosmic Elemental Yoga each Monday evening in February and March at West Asheville Yoga as it is possible to drop in any Monday.

I also wish to extend an opportunity for you to pilgrim alongside myself and an intimate group of priestesses to Avalon and Wales this April for a powerful Earth chakra activation within the heart of our beautiful planet. Tending the Dragon Lines offers you a once in a lifetime opportunity to utilize a particular astrological window to listen deeply to the Voices of the Stones, to work with the ley lines of the Earth, and to commune with your dragon so that you may awaken a new level of your unique magick. If you feel Called to receive the full invitation, hit reply to this email.

I close by offering you a poem I came across as I was preparing this week's Venusian Love Notes. Btw, the photo below was captured a few Venus Days ago at the Venus Temple in Kumbakonam. It is crazy to realize how many weeks have already passed since I danced with the 9 Navagraha.

Praise to Vishnu

translated by W. S. Merwin and J. Moussaieff Masson

Praise to Vishnu his hands

fondle in secret

the large breasts of Laksmi

as though looking there for

his own lost heart

Infinite Blessings,
Ra Ma ☥
