IYAR 5781: Lighting the way to soul-healing
This is the month we count the Omer, repairing and building up inner soul characteristics which generates a Divine healing light hinted at by another name for Chodesh Iyar:
Ziv, lustrous brightness. Ahead are abrupt illuminations and life-altering realizations that, once acknowledged and integrated, are conduits of soul-healing.
The Sun sextiles Mars /
Maâadin and Jupiter /
Tzedek before squaring Pluto April 13-16. As Iyarâs Tribal ruler Issachar practiced discerning wisdom around understanding the times, so we must practice deliberate choice in where we aim the supersized surplus of accumulated aggressive, controlling energy. Resist the temptation to blow off steam at whatever moves. Mars trines Jupiter and Mercury /
Marty Rochesterâs March 24 opinion piece, âOy vey: The excesses of identity politics,â cries out for rebuttal on a number of fronts. Since Iâm having trouble deciding whether I am, in Rochesterâs words, a âgarden-variety liberalâ or a âleft-wing extremist,â Iâll let other more astute readers…
Adar 5781
Feb. 13-March 13, 2021
Though the month of Adar is associated with Pisces/Dagim, because of the fluctuations of the 19-year Metonic cycle to which the Hebrew calendar is synced, the Feb. 11 new moon of Adar is in Aquarius/D’li. This adds an electrified air of instability, which is both exciting and scary during the month traditionally associated with masks and merriment. Just as we are not living in normal times, this is not a normal Adar.
There will be three squares of conservative Saturn/Shabbatai in revolutionary Aquarius to radical Uranus/Oron in traditional Taurus/Shor during 2021. The first one occurs March 17. The conflict between these disparate energies can produce competing value systems and strategic alignments between strange bedfellows. Adar’s classical ruler, Jupiter/Tzedek, in Aquarius and her modern ruler, Uranus, in Taurus illustrates the Purim-like upside-down-ness of the tensions between security and freedom, tradition and innovation, cautiousness
Shevat 5781
Jan. 14-Feb. 11, 2021
The doorway to the Aquarian Age swung open at the Jupiter/Tzedek conjunction to Saturn/Shabbatai on
Tekufah Tevet, the Winter Solstice, in the sign of Aquarius/D’li. Now comes the month of Shevat, ruler of Aquarius itself, modeling revolution with Uranus/Oron stationing direct Jan. 14 at the Sun’s conjunction with Pluto. Powerful social earthquakes remake the landscape with lightning speed. Jupiter in Aquarius squares Uranus in Taurus/Shor Jan. 17, priming the pump for identity crises, both personal and collective, and a sea change in the direction of established institutions. We are receiving revolutionary understandings of ourselves in the context of our various affinity groups because of the tremendous social stressors we’re all enduring. “I get by with a little help from my friends” is the theme song of this month indeed, the anthem of all of 2021.
