In this year chart, Mercury,
the ruler of the natal Ascendant and ruler of the Solar Return Ascendant
transits in the VIIIth house of transformation, conjunct the Sun. The ruler of the ascendant
represents the ego personality, the way we project ourselves in the world and
the sign of the ascendant shows how others perceive us. The conjunction to the Sun makes Mercury even stronger, becoming the most dominant planet in the
chart. In turn, the ruler of the Ascendant conjunct any planet makes this
planet part of the dominant of the chart. In this case, the Sun is the second dominant planet in
this chart.
This “technical” explanation is necessary to understand the
strength of the ego personality. The fact that this conjunction falls in the
sign of Capricorn makes it even more assertive. In the IVth house of the chart,
it indicates a very strong family influence in the development of that
personality.
In the Solar return of 2014, this Mercury/Sun Conjunction falls in the VIIIth house of
transformation, and the Sun conjunct
Pluto emphasizes the transformation
aspect, literally, the total surrender of the ego personality, a rebirth into a
completely different individual with a unified personality, the union of the Ego
and the Soul. The “heart”(Sun) will rule over the “brains” (Mercury), made
it possible by the transformative power of Pluto
and the VIIIth house., as well as the squares to Uranus. This is the “breakthrough” and it can happen during the
Grand Cardinal Cross of April 15 through 29, or any time thereafter, since the
influence of this Grand Cardinal Cross will cover most of the year 2014 and
even beyond.
The Unified personality finds its new strength in two
beautiful sextiles to Neptune in
Pisces in the Xth house of the Solar Return. Neptune gives its wealth of intuition and empathy and allows a
different approach to Healing and helping people, with noticeable expansion of
activities (Neptune in the Xth House
of Career).
In this Solar Chart, the Moon falls in the sign of Libra and is conjunct Mars in the Vth house of love. The
first part of the year is difficult in this area, the presence of Mars triggering hot tempers and
arguments. However, the transformation occurring as a result of the Grand
Cardinal Cross between April 15 and April 29 will change the energy and
decisions will be made to change the dynamics of the relationships to the
satisfaction of the parties concerned.
A Trine between Jupiter
in Cancer in the IInd house of money and Saturn
in Scorpio, in the VIth house of work indicates increase and expansion in
earnings through work and new professional responsibilities.
The IVth house of the Solar Return in the XIth natal
indicates projects regarding living
quarters, a move into a new house. This could happen in August, when the Sun transits the sign of Leo in the XIth
house.
In conclusion, the pivotal fact of the year is the
“breakthrough” and the consecutive “rebirth” which makes everything else fall
into place both on personal and
professional levels, as if a door suddenly opened, revealing
opportunities and abundance. The Grand
Cardinal Cross will certainly contribute to this awakening.
