Most people are probably not aware that we are currently going through one of the strongest celestial alignments in our lifetime. But you could’ve already felt the effects especially if you are an energy sensitive or have learnt to still your mind enough to detect such subtle shifts.
From today 24 July to around 11 Aug 2021, we are about to witness practically all the inner planets of our solar system facing off against the outer planets in our sky. There are 11 celestial bodies in our solar system: Sun, Moon and the 9 planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto). Pluto is still considered a planet in some branches of astrology despite it being demoted to a dwarf planet in astronomy. To earthlings, there are 10 celestial bodies circulating us in the skies, and during the period mentioned, 9 out of 10 will be facing off in the skies. Uranus is the only planet not involved.
Coincidentally, all the outer planets involved in the faceoff are in retrograde motion. All planets orbit the Sun in an anti-clockwise orbit (assuming North Pole is up) and against the backdrop of constellations of stars, their movement is from west to east of our sky normally. During periods of retrograde motion, which happens when the planets are on the same side of the Sun as the Earth; optically it looks as if retrograde planets are moving opposite to their normal direction and are moving east to west instead. Astrologically, retrograde motion is interpreted as the affected planets having negative or contrarian effects, and that the effects are stronger. So instead of all the celestial bodies moving from west to east against the backdrop of stars/constellations kinda like a merry-go-round; what we have during this period is that the inner celestial bodies are moving west to east while the outer planets are all moving east to west, as if towards each other and clashing.
What does this mean astrologically and how can it affect us?
Firstly, celestial alignments caused concentrated energies coming from certain directions in the sky where the celestial bodies as clustered together. These energies are more than what we are used to. Most people who are affected get headaches, migraines, more emotional and temperamental and sleep cycles of many will be affected.Positive effects would be feeling more energised and driven.
Energetically, these energies will pull at (think gravity) negative energies and blockages within our body and trigger a cleansing and healing process. However, as these negative energies leave us, it can cause people to feel and behave negatively. And our negative reactions can cause further negative energies and blockages to form within us.
There is also a special significance of inner and outer planets in astrology. One of the metaphors used for the planets in Vedic astrology is the court analogy. The Sun represents the King, Moon the Queen, Mercury the Prince, Venus the Princess, Mars the General, Jupiter the Sage who advises the King, Saturn the masses/subjects/population. Outer planets beyond Saturn were not visible to ancient astrologers and hence not used in ancient astrology. But if we were to deduce and extrapolate from the above metaphor, the inner planets represents the Ruler class and the outer planets represents the masses or subjects. Metaphorically, the ruler class inner celestial bodies are facing off with the subject class outer planets. And the same could very well happen on Earth.
The energies of the alignment will trigger people’s issues, particularly at the time when the masses are fedup with lockdowns or poor governance by the authorities and government; whether it’s simply due to heightened energies or the metaphorical effect. Issues of displeasure against figures of authority could be the theme for many weeks to come after they are triggered by this alignment. We shouldn’t be surprised to read of demonstrations and protests in the news for months.
During the 19 days, there will 2 days with exceptionally strong energies. The 1st chart of the 1st day with strong energies will help everyone understand what I mean by inner vs outer planets face off.
I use the South Indian Vedic astrology chart showing the positions of celestial bodies relative to Earth which is in the center. Each planet is designated by the 1st 2 alphabets of its name eg. Ma = Mars, Mo = Moon, Ve = Venus and Su = Sun. The numbers are indicative of the positions of the celestial bodies within each 30 degree box representing a 30 degree section of the sky on the ecliptic plane. Each of the box is actually a constellation of the Zodiac. Beginners can ignore Ke, Ra, and As which are not celestial bodies.
You can see from the 1st chart of 26th Jul, the Moon and the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto) are on the left (in the constellations Capricorn and Aquarius) facing off the Sun and the inner planets (Mercury, Venus and Mars) on the right (in the constellations Cancer and Leo). Metaphorically, it’s like the Queen is leading the masses against the King and the court. The Moon orbits around the Earth much faster than other celestial bodies, and after a week plus, it’ll join the inner planets.
The 2nd chart of 8 Aug 2021, shows the Sun and Moon together with the ruling class inner planets facing off the subject class outer planets. In fact this faceoff period is going to be from 7 – 11 Aug roughly.
It’s not all bad news. Heightened energies like these can be harnessed for healing, cleansing and spiritual purposes.
CordyKet will be conducting FREE (donation-basis) Zoom online events and a meditation retreat to help everyone manage their energies and also harness these exceptional energies for the benefit of participants:
1) Light on Earth Meditation
Mon 26 Jul 2021

Online meeting link and password will be given in the respective Cordyket Online groups 15min before the session. Hope to see you online. See below article on how to join the groups.
If you can’t make the sessions, there are other ways to minimise negative effects of the celestial alignments.
How can we minimise negative effects on ourselves?
We recommend that you do more:
Celestial events and alignments typically enhance the effects of meditation and subtle energy practices, when done correctly.
We should also spend some time reflecting on the issues which cause us to be unhappy and try to make peace with them. Then we will truly be happier and less affected negatively by the planets; in fact, any event, or anybody. These are the issues which cause energy blockages within us that are triggered by celestial alignments.
How can we use this info?
Knowing the influence that all of us will be subject to, we can be mindful of ourselves so that we will not unleash negativity upon others; while at the same time we can be more understanding that people are emotional and temperamental due to planetary influences, so we can be cool even when others are not.
And if you think you have been affected by the celestial events, feel free to feedback or connect with me. I’d love to hear from you.
Blessings,
