“If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe” ~ Nikola Tesla
9:
In June 2016, at the midpoint of this 9 Year, the rare and stunning celestial dance is showcasing the near future—the time stream from Now to the Event Horizon of the Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto Conjunction in Capricorn in 2020.
To see from this meta perspective, we need to take in a 360° panorama of the new astrology, drop our need to understand and simply absorb the quantum shift in our knowledge of the solar system. It is said that life is a balance of holding on and letting go, and this has never been as true as it is right now in the 9 global year of 2016. If we try to move forward and hold on to the past at the same time, all we achieve is stagnation. In order to move forward, we have to release our grip and let go of what is holding us back. It is fear of the unknown—fear of the Different—that keeps us locked inside this system of decay and entropy.
One of the many functions of 9 is to give us a jolt of some kind, to wake us up and make us look at what we have been unable see before. Are you aware that our Solar system has increased in size by three times in the last ten years? Did you know that the original number of 9 planets that orbit our Sun has doubled, and that every one of the planets in our local system represents a new archetypal energy we now have access to, conscious of it or not?
Nothing happens by accident. Each of these new celestial bodies has its meaning and purpose in the scheme of your evolutionary journey. This information just might be the most important news available to you in the midst of this huge wave of transformation. When you understand the cosmos we live in, you understand your higher Self.
The 2016 Event Horizon
In early June we reach the watershed between the Pluto/Uranus years of deconstruction and a radically different energy threshold; a turn in the story; or as the current astrology describes, an entirely new evolution of both consciousness and world events—at the same time. Paradoxically, the world has shrunk and the world has exploded. 2016 is not simply another year in a linear timeline; it is not a passing trend. It will infuse and enmesh itself into consciousness, rather than seem to pass us by.
The remarkable astrology charts of June 4, 6 and 9—the Gemini New Moon, the Mutable Grand Cross and the Uranus/Eris conjunction, when inner planets align with outer and deep space planets—hold the codes for the next three years. This is the bridge between the Personal, the Transpersonal and the Suprapersonal.
There are four distinct patterns of sacred geometry overlapping each other:
- A Grand Mutable Cross
- A Grand Earth Trine
- A Cardinal T-Square
- Uranus at the midpoint between Chiron and Sedna
The Mutable Grand Cross aligns Neptune in Pisces with Saturn in Sagittarius, Jupiter/the Node of Fate in Virgo and Sun/Venus in Gemini. The mutable Grand Cross is the process of downloading new frequency information (Gemini) via eternal laws and truth (Sagittarius), adjusting and tweaking (Virgo) limiting outdated viewpoints and opinions that are not based on universal, timeless principles (Pisces).
In other words, as we seek to understand the human journey in a holistic and universal sense, our viewpoint and perspective expands to reflect this evolution within consciousness. It has been described as the process of moving from the microscope to the telescope. In April 2014 there was the Grand Cardinal Cross, which brought external crisis after crisis. Now the shift on to the mutable axis is a crisis in receptivity to new data.
The Grand Earth Trine forms a re-generating triangle of manifestation between Pluto in Capricorn, Jupiter in Virgo and Mercury/Sedna in Taurus. Our old root systems have been clearing out, excavating and purging the debris of inauthentic perceptions, reactions and attachments, raising our frequencies to attune to a much higher consciousness and mental operating system. Everything is recalibrating, everything is shifting. Mercury the Guide of Souls conjuncts deep space planet Sedna the Record-Keeper during the Uranus/Eris conjunction on June 8 and 9. This is a circuit being created for the lower body system to align with some of the highest consciousness available to us. A true re-membering and resurrection.
The Cardinal T-Square aligns Pluto in Capricorn with Uranus/Eris in Aries and Haumea in Libra in a powerfully radical awakening. Eris and Haumea are extremely slow-moving deep space planets with extreme eccentric orbits. They are bringing awareness or knowledge from distant realms of consciousness by cutting through the comfort zone of our existing sense of reality.
What is the effect when the extremely revolutionary and dynamic forces of these three planets synthesize? Eris cuts through our consciousness in an even sharper, more intense and dramatic way than Pluto, but in a longer process. Eris demonstrated, right from the start, her no-nonsense astrological role as the Great Disruptor and the Discomforting Other. Although discordant Eris creates quite a commotion, it clearly is not without purpose. Eris opens us to see beyond the finite bounds of our current perception, beyond the bounds we place upon ourselves, shaking up what is stagnant in consciousness. We are left to redefine and reorganize our world view to embrace a far vaster reality—a view more fitting to our rapidly expanding awareness.
Haumea—known as the Terrible Gift—sweeps away the past and introduces the vastly different, as potent as Pluto. Pluto is control and power, but Haumea is change and transformation—a total break with the past. Look at how our sense of ourselves in the cosmos has radically changed this year, blowing wide open old constructs and power structures, scientifically, astronomically, medically and politically.

- The search for planets bearing life, extra-terrestrials
- Hadron Collider
- LGBT and the growth of gender neutral
- Medical breakthroughs in cancer, stem cells and genetics
- Personal technology
- Whistle blowers
- Air and space travel
The energetics set in motion by these two cycles, climaxing in 2017, along with the Jupiter-Haumea conjunction in Libra, may mobilize and expand upon what we might experience as an acceleration or quickening of the end of our current world paradigm, propelling us into new frontiers in consciousness.
Uranus as Bridge Between the Personal and Transpersonal
Tellingly, as the shift from the 7 Uranus/Pluto Squares of 2012-15 begins, the pivot point into the quantum years is Uranus, the Great Awakener, archetype of the Higher Mind, bridging the personal and transpersonal. In June, Uranus is at the midpoint between Chiron at 24 Pisces and Mercury /Sedna at 25 Taurus.
Uranus/Eris ARIES 23
A bottle labelled “drink me.”
The force of events sweeps away who we thought we were and plunges us to a deeper place beyond the known. The sheer immediacy, the sudden clarity shifts mountains of intent into a different octave altogether. Being taken by storm is the most direct path from here to there. And when cosmic worlds are urgently coming through, the only smart thing is to step aside and make a huge amount of room for unexpected guests, at events you could never have arranged in your wildest dreams.
Sedna TAURUS 25
Bees returning to their hive.
Thematic worlds coming round again just as before, just like always. The highest and the best, maintained and sustained beautifully, impeccably, superlatively. Knowing inside that what counts, what is essential, is to abide, to be. You are a vast world unto yourself, an extraordinary network of intersecting dynamics. But the witness consciousness is blissfully sitting back in a restful perch, letting everything go by. And in the very center of this dispassion and wakeful scrutinizing, indwells a Buddha realization attained by hard work in many lives.
Chiron PISCES 24
A spring festival.
The participants are in a state of ecstatic frenzy.
Inward explosions. The pressure valve goes off. You sit inside collective and ancestral frequencies of doubt, insecurity, and suppression until this can no longer be. The frenzied edge of new worlds; the ancient accumulations of old worlds. Coming to that point where the inward power overthrows form constraints, scatters semblances, and finds something magnificent that has been untapped and forbidden for so very long, the final spark ignites, releases, and reveals. What was lost and forgotten is more there than ever and not discouraged, never put down.
This 9 Year is a metaphysical spiral staircase—on which we can never quite see what’s around the corner. It feels as if everything is spiraling—sometimes out of control, sometimes onward and upward. 2016 is the seventh year of the decade of the 10s. Anything is possible because 10 is the number of true innovation and forward movement. Seven represents consciousness and the mind. Seven is the learning number—the number of wisdom. This suggests that a great opening of minds is likely to occur in 2016.
Ten brings things to the “next level”. As parts of our past enters the present this year, we will also catch glimpses of future possibilities. And only by knowing exactly what we are feeling can we sense what to do next. Old memories arise this year, bringing new meaning to old situations that we thought were over. Secrets are uncovered in 9’s upheavals, and the karmic 16 in 2016—the number of secrets, conspiracy, and the abuse of power—is producing some shocking revelations which move our emotions even more. The instability and disorientation we experience this year increases the opportunity for a positive change of direction—which is actually an increase of intelligence.
When we learn from experience, our mind is forced open by the vibrational movement of your emotions. Alternating sensations of anxiety and enthusiasm are to be expected, and are often experienced simultaneously. Each corner we turn, each level of the spiral we encounter, will bring us to a new experience for which we are not prepared. But we have not traveled this far in the course of time without having what it takes to deal with it effectively. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. Free Will is the future, and as we move further towards the end of the decade of the 10s—and the year 2020—it is more obvious than ever that if freedom really is our goal, then this is the year in which we must commit to it.
The issue is whether we will avail yourself of the awareness the sky is offering, and empower ourselves to consciously participate in creating a future reality from all of the possibilities which still exist now. There’s a Sufi saying, “Die many times before you die,” meaning die to your old Self over and over. The past is gone—there is only Now. The choices we make will have far reaching repercussions.
We’re in a freefall into future. We don’t know where we’re going. Things are changing so fast, and always when you’re going through a long tunnel, anxiety comes along. And all you have to do to transform your hell into a paradise is to turn your fall into a voluntary act. It’s a very interesting shift of perspective and that’s all it is… joyful participation in the sorrows and everything changes. ~ Joseph Campbell
