Turning of the Ages Mystery School

Join Shamanic Astrologers Daniel Giamario and Erik Roth for another update and deep look into the inner workings of the Mars Synodic Cycle. As features of this call, they will also share about how Mars and Venus will join each other for two more conjunctions on February 16th and March 5th. Both Mars and Venus are presently visible as ‘morning stars’ with Venus having had its heliacal rise on January 15th. Together, the dance of these two planets is invoking stories within us, what we refer to in Shamanic Astrology as a ‘saga’. This one is known as the Rapunzel/Dumuzi saga. In our ongoing investigation of the Mars synodic cycle, with the Aries overtone, this is phase four. This phase occurs after Mars rises from the Underworld., and is known as “Rebirth and the Growth of Wisdom.”

This ongoing saga has just entered a new phase as Venus is now beginning its own long 19-month cycle in the sign of Capricorn. Venus meets a slowly brightening Mars in Capricorn, which has been in the morning sky since late November. These two conjunctions take place in the signs of Capricorn and Aquarius. But this time Venus and Mars won’t be meeting alone! In turn, they’ll be joined by Vesta and Pluto, further emphasizing the deeper-level wisdom and knowledge of the ancestral and archetypal Circle of Grandmothers.

This is also marking a pivotal point with regards to the Pluto Return for the US as these inner planets link up with transiting Pluto. The potency of this alignment (of Mars, Venus, Pluto and Vesta) will be extra-lively and transformational, especially for those who are experiencing cycles of their own occurring in the latter degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries and Libra.
