The Sun and the Moon join in the sign of the Great Water Bearer, one of the oldest western constellations, which depicts a large man pouring water from an urn into a waiting fish mouth. This part of the sky, known as “the Water” or “the Sea,” is filled with images of fish, sea monsters, the goat with the fishtail (Capricorn), and the river Eridanus. It’s wet because light is returning: as there is more light, there is more heat, and as there is more heat, the rigidity of winter softens and so there is more flow.
The great luminaries in Aquarius are flanked by Mars, Mercury, Venus Rx and Pluto still traveling in Capricorn. Jupiter and Neptune, meanwhile, are traveling in next-door neighbor Pisces. This point in our current cycle is almost entirely fluid, with the exception of Taurus earth and Aries fire.
After the deep dark rest of solstice and winter, how is light and movement calling us to stir our bones and bring forward what has been conserved? Are we ready? Couldn’t we just hit “snooze” and keep the covers pulled up?
Note: If you have a copy of your own horoscope, it will be possible to trace these currents to your own experiences. For more information on reading your own natal chart, you can purchase the recording of How to Read Your Own Horoscope 101.
About Carol Ferris
Carol Ferris is a full-time consulting astrologer, teacher, and private tutor of astrology with four decades of experience. She completed her MA in Interdisciplinary Studies at Marylhurst University. The title of her thesis, The Sky's Body: Constellations and Medicine reflects her ongoing interest in nature-based medicine and governance thinking of the ancient Near East and Chinese philosophers and astrologers. Carol's work with the multivalent symbols of astrology is interwoven into work with dreams and active imagination. Over the years, Carol has seen these two frameworks —astrological mapping and Jungian imagery —as mutually beckoning guides to understand how all life, in its exquisite specificity, rises from a unified field.
