Hello, Cosmic Confidentialists!
I put on my fedora this morning to get down to business but felt a little shy on ideas — despite the fact that we’re in a time of all kinds of wild ideas and in need of many others. In fact, as Eric noted in today’s Astrology News, “Jupiter-Uranus in Pisces is some of the most creative, inventive, beautiful astrology anyone could dream up. Many brilliant ideas that manifest over the next decade will have their genesis in these weeks.”
This astrology is manifesting in many ways, including the bizarro-upside-down world described by many political figures running for office right now. Of this dynamic, Eric writes, “On one level this is a source of the madness and insanity in the political landscape: the ongoing invention of a fantasy world because the reality we’ve created is too painful.”
True, there is a lot of pain to dominate our focus and energy these days. And as Eric mentions, it will take a lot of dedicated creativity to work together toward productive, life-affirming solutions. Sure, there are those — such as inventor Buckminster Fuller — who seem born to a life of creative and inventive service to the collective. He even has Jupiter and Pisces playing important roles in his astrology (though not in the same configuration as our current transits) as Eric explains in this archived edition of Astrology News dedicated to Fuller.
But you don’t have to feel like Fuller to be part of the sanity revolution or even your own evolution. Believe me, there is plenty of room for innovative, humane ideas big and small in this often-painful world of ours. Don’t underestimate yours, please — we need you. Planet Waves is happy to be your cheerleader; all you have to do is a little something for us to cheer about. Not sure where to start?
