Cardinal Grand Cross: The Combustion Chamber of the Engine of Creation



We have been sitting under a Pluto-Saturn-Uranus T-square since the spring, and now as the Sun pulls its way through the end of Gemini and into Cancer, the Sun itself moves in to complete a grand cardinal cross.  This can be a very stressful configuration for many people, one of the chief ways that this is likely to manifest may be a simple overwhelming feeling of fatigue, emotional physical spiritual.  
It may be helpful to stop and understand the purpose of a grand cardinal cross in terms of the vibration of the universe.  Because there is no part of emanation that does not exist for good reason, so too, we must examine this configuration to understand what helpful things this vibration motivates us to take hold of!  
Motivation is truly the key word, because not only is motivation the key word for hard aspects in general, but indeed as these powers are lining up in the cardinal signs, motivation is underlined and capitalized.  This is a time to shake the boat, this is a time to examine old habits, old assumptions about desires.  This is a time to question what we base our security on, and question the wisdom of the very concept of security.
This is tiring and stressful because it is not something we do easily... but then again, all it takes is to choose to do it easily.  If we have the courage to question the assumptions of our needs we can re-order our foci to move in-line with what we really want, and thus with the natural vibrations of the universe.
In addition we can get a whole lot of help from Jupiter, Neptune the Moon and Chiron right about now!
The Moon and Neptune have come conjunct in Pisces, which means our sensitivity, empathy and just plain intuitive sense is about as keyed in as we can hope (the trick there is to make darn well sure we're listening).  Its a funny thing how we can be so distracted by the discomfort of our situation that we can allow that discomfort to distract us from the voice that leads us out!  
Sextil to Pluto, Our moon and neptune, what can well be a spiritual intuitive stance is poised to untie the knot of power-games and politics in Capricorn-the house of money and time and the Law!  Chiron is also conjunct, so there is a story of healing the world to overcome personal pain!  
These 3 are then Sextil to Jupiter in Taurus which speaks to strong steady advance an optimism that though slow moving focuses on enjoying the slow process of gradual manifestation, a manifestation that we know is strong, built as patiently and attentively as Taurus demands!
Jupiter Sextils the sun, reminding us to key into the expansive hopeful positive parts of our nature, and recognize when we do that fatigue does begin to lift.  More-so we hold onto that Jupiter-Neptune Lunar energy which is opening us up on the inside to loosening and redefining our expectations allowing us to transmute our goals into what we really want now.
Basically at the end of the day we have come to a grand place of redefinition, (on of many to be confronted this summer)  The point is to acknowledge what is uncomfortable, believe that we can find something else, and start looking without a preassigned idea of what is involved!
Remember part of the work we are doing is questioning the very presumption of what has been presumed to be "practical".  When the weight of the world gets to you, have you thought about just setting it down?

"I open to the new possibilities of my life.  I listen to the soft voice of my intuition, and allow it to teach me the new road of my hearts desire.  And I have faith that when I follow that song my bliss comes."
