ASTRO-UPDATE
Sun conjunct Mars in Leo Thursday July 27, exact at 10:56 am AEST
To begin, here’s the planetary powers associated with the Sun and Mars planetary archetypes, followed by three planetary prose poems excerpted from my book The Planets Speak: Wisdom of the Gods. This should give you an idea of the energies in play with this uber masculine planetary conjunction. The first Sun script gives the deeper significance of the Sun archetype while the second is more playful. I sometimes give the second one to people who are lacking in fire in my Astro-Drama groups to extend them and bring them out of themselves, the idea being to give them an actual experience of fire energy. It is important that they enjoy themselves as they give voice to it in order to experientially understand how [Leo] fire energy works. The Mars script embodies the Hero side of Mars.

SUN
I am the call of destiny heard from within
Calling on you to become yourself
To become all you can be
To fulfill your potential, realize yourself
What more can you give than this ?
And give generously
Sing your song, shine your light
Your individual flowering fulfills the greater design
Stand alone if that must be
Don’t be put off by others envy or your own self doubt
Don’t play small, heed the call
Be yourself, you know you must
Authentic, special, unique
If you refuse destiny’s call there is a price to pay
I will curse you with the torment of an unlived self
Feelings of failure, guilt and remorse
Knowing you could be, should be, so much more
What a waste, a disgrace to the self
Wake up to your self !
Wake up and roar !
You’re a lion not a sheep
You are a creator
The creator of your own life
And this, is the great work of art
SUN
I am a Star !
The centre and heart of the entire solar system
The source of all light and energy
All life depends on Me !
I am the light of consciousness
Shining brilliant and bright
Energy in motion, a constant delight
And I shine unconditionally
On saint and sinner alike
Am I not deserving of praise and admiration ?
Honour me and I will bless you
With a joyful heart and love of life
Energy, vitality, creativity
Vibrance, passion, intensity
Commanding presence, ability to lead
Nobility, power, and dignity
Yes, I am special
Yes, I am the greatest
Yes, I am the biggest
The biggest and the best
Yes – I – Am !
MARS
I’m the god of war and passion
A god with fire in the belly
I know what I want and I know how to get it
I want you – I want your sex !
I’m a hunter
A hunter in the wilds of desire
A wolf who runs with women
A woman who runs with the wolves
I’ve got the power !
The power to turn you on
I’m a warrior, a leader, a pioneer
A noble knight with a lion’s heart
A hero with a thousand faces
I take on the hard stuff
I voyage alone into the unknown
Fight for peace to protect the weak
Take you on adventures beyond the stars
Thrill you with deeds of danger and passion
What more could anyone ask ?
In truth
I’m a peaceful warrior
A martial artist of grace and power
The master of my self
I give you strength and courage
The strength to face your fears
The courage to be yourself
Honour me, and I will grant you
Victory, success, fame and acclaim
Ho !
