http://planetwaves.net/pagetwo/2009/03/11/no-room-for-fear/With the Sun approaching a conjunction to Uranus today, the energy is high, erratic, unpredictable and — if we’re paying attention — brilliantly creative. Whenever you see Uranus prominent in the sky, expect the unexpected. The aspect is exact tomorrow but it’s applying all day today, so it’s in full force and effect.

As we make these changes or try to, there is the potential for enormous fear to come up, because we have to leave behind the two things that humans depend on most to get through the day — external structure and expectations. Those things are Saturn functions, and Saturn (in Virgo) is opposite this amazing conjunction we are experiencing in Pisces. Saturn also represents fear. Saturn in Virgo is the fear to think for yourself, one of the most important boundaries that we have in life. This is a phobia; it’s a debilitating fear without an apparent cause; neither is there a conscious consequence: “If I think for myself, this will happen.”
With this Uranian, imaginative energy running so high, I suggest you ask yourself just what you’re afraid of and why. I think that fear needs to be a conscious act, so that we can consciously choose whether we want it, and decide if it’s helping us in any way. Do we really have room to waste our lives paralyzed by fear? And while it’s possible to get over fear on paper, in theory and in the therapy room, can anything really do the trick except for taking action and seeing something constructive or creative happen as a result? Getting over fear requires taking a risk.
In other news, the Moon ingresses Libra at 2:45 pm EDT. The first thing it does will be to square Pluto in Capricorn, so this takes the relational energy of the Libra Moon and turns it introspective. If you can go there for real, then the next thing that happens is a series of trines to all those planets in Aquarius over the next two days, opening many social doors and unexpected pathways to new ideas.
