Take Advantage of Today’s Opportunity to Clean House
By Ellen Zucker | August 29, 2010
One of the great benefits of astrology is you can look ahead to see what energies will be in play and then use them to advance your objectives and goals.
Today there is a grand trine in the Earth signs.
Sun in Virgo is trine Pluto in Capricorn and both are trined by the Moon.
A grand trine in Earth is a grounding, stabilizing influence, quite welcome in this tumultuous summer.
So, today you may find it wise to take advantage and make use of the relative calm and quiet to focus on mundane day-to-day details, catch up with gardening, catch up with household chores…
Because Mercury is retrograde, focusing in back-burner projects, reviewing plans, records, catching up with bookkeeping, will pay large dividends. Cleaning up the minutia (Virgo just loves getting minutia in order) will make you feel cleaner and lighter.
While accomplishing this, do it with an eye of throwing out and releasing what no longer serves you. This can be as basic as throwing out unneeded items cluttering up the household. After all, Saturn is still squaring Pluto; Saturn’s energy works by constricting and getting smaller (one reason why Saturn transits to your birth chart are excellent times for dieting) and Pluto works by exposing decay then elimination, the first steps in transformation.
The point here is that today is a fabulous opportunity to clear up and clean up details and clutter which will give you a strong foundation to begin the new workweek.
