Understanding Sun and Ascendant in Astrology

Before we dive into it, let's briefly discuss the importance of your Sun and Ascendant sign. The Sun sign represents your higher self and spiritual evolution, while the Ascendant sign represents your soul's purpose and how you can manifest it in the world.

GENERAL ENERGY UPDATE

On May 19, 2023, the New Moon will occur in Taurus at 28 degrees and 25 minutes. This New Moon is a time of planting seeds of intention and manifestation, especially in the areas of finances, material possessions, and security. Taurus is a fixed earth sign, and it is associated with stability, practicality, and groundedness. During this New Moon, we are encouraged to focus on building our resources and creating a solid foundation for our future.

This week, Taurus experiences a lot of energy with the recent entrance of Jupiter, while the Sun and Moon have moved out after the new Moon. However, the focus is still on the Jupiter/Mercury/north node conjunction, particularly in the realm of creation, survival, finances, and material possessions. The key this week is to exercise "conscious direction" instead of giving in to primal gratification.

According to Dane Rudyhar, our natural makeup includes the Pluto/Mars life force to spread, conquer, and dominate, but as Spirit/Soul beings, we have the freedom to control and direct our animal intuitive nature for the greater good.

This week's energy can be either super constructive or cause havoc if not consciously directed.

Some may feel overwhelmed with the pace and intensity of life, while others may struggle to control their emotions.

The saving grace is Venus in Cancer and the Sun moving into Gemini, which bring sympathetic understanding and objective flexibility to our thinking and communication.

It's essential to listen to other perspectives and gain understanding through counterpoint awareness and polarity. Power is more conscious and intentional, while force can cause damage seeking its own aims regardless of others' effects. Use your power wisely.
