  • Moon in Taurus trine Pluto in Capricorn (20°)

  • Moon Void of Course in Taurus (4:37 AM EDT)

  • Waning Inconjunct between the Taurus Moon and Libra Sun (22°)

  • Moon enters Gemini (10:29 PM EDT)

The final, major aspect that the Moon makes before it goes VOC is a trine to Pluto. This is an empowering aspect that helps you solidify what you already have in practical, physical terms. It’s a good time to rest and take stock of what you’ve built, because VOC Is not a time to start anything new.

However, while the Moon is VOC, it will form a Waning Inconjunct with the the Sun. This aspect demands minor adjustments after the culmination of the October 13th Full Moon. Your balance with another (the balance that was disrupted or transformed during the Full Moon) will now receive a slight correction as you integrate subjective concerns. Take what makes you feel secure and incorporate it into these relationship changes.

Once the Moon enters Gemini the energy should become lighter and your choices will increase regarding what you can do next.

  • Mercury in Scorpio trine Neptune RX in Pisces (16°)

This is a gentle influence that can be deeply satisfying. Intimate words/thoughts or the investigation of secrets will be enabled as boundaries imperceptibly dissolve. You may not be able to put your finger on the exact moment this happens, but you will notice that words come flooding out or your attention is drawn naturally in a certain direction.

Normally uncomfortable/taboo subjects can be easily accessed. Neptune’s influence reminds you that what seems dark and all-encompassing can be transcended. Your perspective can be gently widened, which can increase compassion for yourself and others.

This aspect will repeat:

  • November 13th (Mercury RX):15°

  • November 28th (Mercury direct): 15°

15 to 16° of the Water signs Is a prime area for this enhanced flow, so take note if you have anything In these signs and degrees.

October 14th, 2019: Shadow Issues

Leonid Pasternak

  • Libra Sun square Pluto in Capricorn (20°)

  • Ceres in Sagittarius square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (18°)

Continuing the energy of yesterday’s Full Moon, the Sun/Pluto square illuminates the shadow side of relationships. Power, fear of loss or jealousy will be underneath the surface. Scenarios are polite on the outside, but you’re not imagining the undercurrent of tension or intensity.

This aspect can indicate manipulative social situations or a death/crisis that completely changes the balance in a relationship. 

Ceres/BML is a crisis between the Great Mother and the Dangerous Woman. As the significator of nurturing, loss and rebirth, Ceres in Sag can mean the expansion of that cycle or hope for life in the future. But BML is a dark current that cuts across Ceres’ forward momentum-the witch/other woman/ sexual disruptor can challenge efforts to nurture or can undermine faith.  There could be a showdown between the mother and the seductress, or a crisis between mothering versus undefined sexuality.

Overview

Mercury in Scorpio makes a stabilizing sextile to Saturn in Capricorn on October 14th, an idealistic and expansive trine to Neptune RX in Pisces on October 15th and an empowering sextile to Pluto in Capricorn on October 19th. Words and ideas can be dreamy and deep, but there’s just enough focus to remind you that you must abide by the rules of the real world.

Venus in Scorpio trines the Cancer North Node (and makes a sextile to the Capricorn South Node) on October 17th. The deepest commitment to what you want and love (including your personal values) will align you with your path forward: an emotionally nurturing and satisfying situation. Venus’ aspect to the South Node, and sextile to Saturn (South Node ruler) on October 20th, says that the old rules shouldn’t be ignored. Allow an ending or culmination to happen naturally, and use those limits to keep you focused on the future. If you’ve been doing the work, you may see some rewards.

Aries

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your sector of shared resources can open the doors to compassionate conversation, deep insights and the gentle exploration of secrets. Debts, taxes, loans, your partner’s finances, intimacy or psychological work can benefit from the reveal of something hidden. This shouldn’t feel traumatic, as the energies suggest gradual insight and the uncovering of hidden resources.

Watch for deepening intimacy or self-acceptance. Domestic finances look good, and a culmination involving career/future goals can add structure to what you uncover. 

Taurus

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your partnership sector blend one-on one connections with public dreams and ideals. Excellent for affectionate, non-judgmental energy in all types of relationships. Also good for tapping into some social magic and using it in your personal life. Watch for deeper discussions to flow naturally with others. 

The solidification or conclusion of future goals along with the transformation of what you know (due to an intensified learning curve) will factor into these rich moments. Excellent for sharing your knowledge and finding acceptance for newly developing ideas.

Gemini

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your sector of routine are encouraging for work and health. Professional ideals and dreams about future goals can lead to the expansion of helpful details, solutions and coworker relationships. Daring to look beyond your daily routine can open your eyes to what you thought was impossible. Inspiration can be grounded and intensified by the transformation of old habits and shared responsibilities.

Finances look good, especially regarding a new line of work or new approach to work . Tap into personal boundaries and add structure/ commitment to your routines.

Cancer

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your sector of self-expression can boost your creative vision, romantic hopes or ability to manifest a dream. Venus trine the North Node in your sign is encouraging for the solidification of a personal goal, adding fuel to a new attraction or realizing that you’re on the right path for pride and self-expression. 

Transformations and boundaries in a partnership add focus and intensity of purpose to your new goals. Even if an ending is involved, the structure of what’s happening will confirm that forward is the only way to go.

Leo

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your domestic sector can encourage the flow of family discussions, affection, empathy and deep compassion. Issues such as domestic finances, intimacy, domestic partnerships or generational inheritances can be explored in a gentle and healing manner. Domestic relationships, or a deeper sense of what you love and value in your home, can help you tap into a hidden or undeveloped issue. Family secrets from the past can emerge. 

Practical structures, focus and transformations involving your health and daily routines add stability and intensity to these developments. Good for making the most of improvements in your daily life.

The discipline and intensity that you put into your self- expression and creative work will add focus to the above. The more weight you give your creations and desires, the further you can take them. Also good for taking a romance to the next level.

Libra

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your sector of personal resources can encourage the development of financial ideas or self-esteem via care and compassion for others or a gentler approach to your own health/work. Abundance and values can increase in ways that are not directly related to material wealth; a small sacrifice can be painless while leading to an increase of what you want. These developments can blend nicely with new career goals or a more emotionally satisfying area in your professional life.

Responsibilities and major changes in your domestic life can create a stronger foundation that will give you the focus to apply the above energy to your future. A “death” in your domestic life can lead to the growth of something beautiful and compassionate.

Scorpio

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your sign can increase your attraction power, ability to charm our ability to express yourself with magical/magnetic words.

This is the moment to speak your truth and open your eyes to whom you’re magnetizing.

The intensity and focus of old, official or culminating information can act as a gentle point of structure that will add solidity to the above. The proof and authority of your ideas will ensure that what’s developing is more than just beautiful dreams-this can be your moment to manifest what you’ve been working on.

Sagittarius

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your hidden sector suggest the expansion of a domestic dream, wish or unspoken longing. Ongoing illnesses or weaknesses can be addressed privately and provide you with access to unconditional love. This can open the door to increased trust, secrets and comfortable vulnerability. However, be wary of enabling an addiction or undermining habit by refusing to confront reality.

If you tap into increased discipline, self-sufficiency and necessary changes in the areas of finances and personal values  you can maintain your focus in a healthy direction (the productive exploration of what’s hidden) rather than getting stuck in a loop of helplessness.

Capricorn

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your social sector can open up the creative flow of communication and relationships with the public or friends. Connections with others can be free-flowing, empathetic, loving or even magical. Excellent for developing all social relationships and public connections. This can lead to the development of one, significant relationship or your emotional understanding of balanced partnerships in general. 

Aspects to Saturn, Pluto and the South Node in your sign suggest that culminating issues involving your power, focus and authority (plus the death of old traditions in your life) can add commitment and social boundaries to the above. 

Aquarius

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your career sector suggest that less obvious paths for earned money and security can expand professional relationships and conversations. An honest look at what you really want regarding your future goals or professional connections can open the door to new values while helping you manifest these issues in your new, daily reality. To0, there could be a professional opportunity that blends creativity with spirituality or compassion.

In the background, an ending and major restructuring is steadily advancing. Allow this redefinition to focus you in the right direction while an old lifestyle/ commitment/fear drops away.

Pisces

Aspects to Mercury and Venus in your opportunities sector (including Neptune in your sign) can expand your vision and social connections in the areas of long- distance romance, travel, education, legal matters and publishing. This is your moment to reach out and manifest a dream or belief. This will encourage your path towards full self-expression, pride and confidence. Excellent for creating, exploring and finding joy/new purpose.

Pay attention to culminating social rules, boundaries and the transformation of your public connections. Changes and endings in these areas can give you the momentum to move forward with a personal project, romance or creative goal.
