Parler is Shut Down - The first real effect of Saturn in Aquarius?




At 11:59 hrs on the 10th January Pacific Time, Amazon Web Services shut off off the communications app "Parler"; it was seen as a potential rival to Twitter. Instantaneously, the ability of millions of users to communicate with each other was eradicated. Boom, just like that!! Just before this, Google & Apple had done the same blocking it on their platforms. This came on the back of President Trump being banned first by Facebook and then by Twitter, limiting his ability to speak and spread his message to his followers. Why is this so significant? In my eyes it was the first time that the true effects of Saturn in Aquarius, the planet of limitation and running things in sign of technology and the community, was being felt.

The New Moon in Capricorn on 13th January 2021 - Inner change, before outer development.

 

Well what can you say? It's been a wild start to the new year, and now we come upon a New Moon in Capricorn that looks at first glance looks rather challenging. As you will know, New Moons are all about new beginnings, and the New Moon in Capricorn will look at the structure of our life, the responsibilities we have and the way we organise ourselves. Of course, in the past year I would imagine that this part of your life will have been turned completely upside down as the rampaging virus Covid-19 swept across the world and changed all of our futures forever. Even before I get into the details of this New Moon, it doesn't take much imagination to work out that the role of this New Moon will be to try and sort out what is functioning in our life, what our priorities are, how we should go about things, and how to make the best of the situation we find ourselves in.

The Full Moon in Cancer on 30th December 2020 – Making plans for the New Year














There's going to be a full Moon on the 30th December at 8 degrees in the sign of Cancer, a reminder that the Capricorn Cancer influence of the past 2 to 3 years has not quite finished yet. As you will know Cancer is a sign of nurturing, security, family and the past, and this lunation will highlight these themes as we get the end of a most difficult year, and look forward with hope that 2021 will be a little bit better.
