The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity. Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter / Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune / Pluto). And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something big is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful guide as you move along your Individual Path. It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. Below, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction. NOTE: There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon); please note that there are no missing entries, we just list the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.
Weekly Forecast: June 9–15, 2019
6/9 ~ Sun (core essential Self) ~square~ Neptune (illusions & delusions)
This activation can cause self-doubt, self-delusion and an overall confusion that seems to be sourced within or self-directed. It's only temporary; this is just the Universe's way of slowing you down so you can see where your goals may have been unrealistic or based on flights of fancy. If your energy is low and you're feeling challenged to see the bright side of things, it is better to just time-out, rest & replenish (if possible), and most of all, do not initiate any grand plans as you are not really seeing things as they truly are at this time. Luckily, this is a pretty short-lived activation.
6/10 ~ Sun (core essential Self) ~oppose~ Jupiter (expansion & learning)
This energy is a double-edged sword in that you may "feel" positive and optimistic—which is a good thing—but it is also prone to excess—which brings us to the philosophy of "anything in moderation" or "balance in all things." Be positive but be alert too! Beware of the urge to overdo it or over-extend yourself on any level. Use this energy to tap into your courageous side and attempt something you have avoided out of fear or doubt. There is a push-pull going on between your ego and your enthusiastic child within which demands that you find a proper expression for this energy. Also, beware of your enthusiasm provoking you to try to get others to see it from this point-of-view. You always have to be mindful of the fact that everyone is on their individual paths and may not be ready for what you're bringing...and that's okay—focus this energy back on your Self and it will serve you well. This energy tends to bring out the self-righteousness in us and that rarely leads where you are trying to go. What this energy is trying to tell us is that certain aspects of your Self and your Spiritual development are coming to a head and decisions need to be made which will affect your future. Pay attention—and try to get the lesson & the blessing of whatever is happening this week because it is trying to guide you to a new level...ready or not! Also keep in mind that it is an opposition, which always reminds us to watch for extremes and practice coming back to center; the truth is you are 6-months into something that requires some integration. If you stabilize now, you can expand your life in positive ways and with more ease & grace.
6/14 ~ Mars (desires & actions) ~trine~ Neptune (dreams & visions)
This energy is good for spiritual exploration, digging deeper into your place in the Cosmos and in relation to others. Your energy is best turned inward, as you find just how much who you are and what you want has changed over recent years and using this energy to infuse more depth into your heart's desires. By infusing your dreams & visions for your Self, you naturally bless Others & the Universe. You may feel inclined to help others, but always balance that drive with some objectivity (are those you're helping just as dedicated as you are to the common cause?). This is a very laid back energy that allows you time to take effective action on behalf of your dreams and spiritual growth, more than outward action or specific steps. Enjoy it!
6/14 ~ Mars (energy) ~oppose~ Saturn (stability)
This energy is a mixed blessing so watch any extreme swings one way or another. Mars is all about energy, passion & movement and Saturn is all about stability, structure & foundation. When they are opposite each other, there can be a beautiful blend of energy & passion behind solid, productive work that yields long-term benefits. However, if you swing to petulant Mars—"I want my way!"—then Saturn's response is, "It will be done the RIGHT way or not at all!" This energy brings lessons either way, usually around anger issues or long-standing upsets. You may feel "held back," although nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is you have to do certain ‘first things first' and if/when you do things in "order," success usually follows. If/when you rush and do things without thinking or planning, then mistakes inevitably follow and you have to do things over again. This is also the half-way mark of a two-year cycle that gives you the opportunity to check in and see how things are progressing and make any necessary adjustments so you are successful at the culmination of the current cycle. (Look to the signs for more specifics.)
