Overview

February 26th sees Venus making a conjunction to the Capricorn South Node. Financial, relationship and self-esteem issues from the past (or past life) will culminate. This will be about defining what’s most valuable, drawing a line in front of the past or reaping the rewards of your focus and discipline in these areas. This can be a prime moment for fated connections.

Mercury in Pisces makes a sextile to Venus/South Node and trines the Cancer North Node, indicating that intuitive, creative or compassionate words are the keys that will help you develop. Taking it forward to the Cancer North Node means moving towards a place where authentic needs come first. Or, taking something you’ve been working and manifesting it into safety, security and satisfaction. 

Note that due to Mercury’s upcoming Rx, it will aspect the Nodes two more times, with the final aspects in April. So there’s more to discuss, communicate or learn (the story’s not complete). 

On March 1st, Venus in Capricorn is shocked by a square to Uranus in Aries. The above developments can be abruptly disrupted or shoved in an unexpected direction. But this may be for the best, because Venus enters Uranus-ruled Aquarius on the same day and makes a soothing sextile to Chiron in Aries on March 2nd. The resulting liberation from these changes will help you deal with Chiron’s wounds and insecurities. This is about going your own way and valuing what works for you (even if it doesn’t work for anyone else). 

Aries

Venus over the South Node in your career sector suggests a culminating issue involving your professional image/values, a desired goal or work relationship. There could be a reward for your focus and discipline, or perhaps a relationship is officially terminated. Aspects from Mercury in your hidden sector suggest intuitive or secret information will support these developments and encourage progress at home/with family. Tune into what’s not fully defined. This will be part of an ongoing conversation that continues into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sign, watch for an unexpected development in the above as you break away from old rules/definitions or a professional association takes a radical turn. As Venus moves into your social sector and aspects Chiron in your sign, you’ll see how these changes are necessary in order to support a new, more liberating approach to friends, groups and the expression of newly emerging values. A new area of insecurity or vulnerability can be addressed and others will support you.

Taurus

Venus over the South Node in your opportunities sector can bring a positive development involving long-distance romance, education, legal matters or publishing. Watch for a favourable result, graduation or official confirmation of something you believe in. In some cases, an ending can occur in one of the above areas. Aspects from Mercury in your social sector suggest helpful information from friends, supportive conversations or an opportunity to publicly deliver your message with emotional resonance. This is an excellent influence to disseminate knowledge or connect with others in a empathetic way. However, information will continue to evolve into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your hidden sector, watch for surprises that impact the above. Changes can come out of nowhere and plans can be disrupted at the last minute. As Venus moves into your career sector and aspects Chiron, you’ll see how the these disruptions may actually be positive – new future goals will address hidden concerns and insecurities. A new path may be the best thing for you. 

Gemini

Venus conjunct the South Node in your sector of shared resources can trigger issues from the past involving an intimate relationship, money owed or your partner’s finances. Too, there could be a gift or inheritance. Boundaries and responsibilities are key themes. In some cases, a conclusion (the end of a relationship or a debt paid off) could be featured. Aspects from Mercury in your career sector suggest encouraging developments (in the form of conversations with management or discussions about your future) that support self-sufficiency and security. The discussion will continue to evolve into April.

As Venus squares Uranus in your social sector, external prompts (via friends, group associations or a public issue) can disrupt some of the above and deliver a surprising shot of clarity regarding what you owe, want or love. What you thought was set has some additional changes to go through (or a partner may surprise you) and as Venus enters your sector of opportunities and aspects Chiron, watch for more/better to be possible because of this. Although the initial surprise may feel uncomfortable, it can gift you with an unexpected way to deal with a painful social issue. Or, you can discover that there are better opportunities out there. A risk (regarding finances, a relationship or the expression of your values) may be worth it. 

Cancer

Venus conjunct the South Node in your partnership sector can signal the return of a past relationship, a new relationship with a powerful fated feeling or a turning point in an existing relationship. Key themes will be commitment, projected authority and the definition of what you want versus what they want. Aspects to Mercury (including a trine to the North Node in your sign) in your sector of opportunities suggest this is a valuable opportunity to put a crucial issue into words – your needs and sense of security  can be expressed easily and harmoniously to another. In some cases, this can indicate the start of a valuable professional partnership that can greatly expand your public reach. This will continue to evolve into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your career sector, watch for an unexpected shift in future goals or a surprising left turn as someone jolts you with the truth about what they want. As Venus enters your sector of shared resources and aspects Chiron, developments can push you to explore deeper layers of this partnership and your own issue of trust and vulnerability. This can help you address insecurities about success, your expression of authority or a new career path. 

Leo

Venus conjunct the South Node in your sector of routine can emphasize a service-oriented relationship, a co-worker relationship, issues of self-care or obligations to someone else. There could be an ending as you wrap up a health/work issue or conclude an obligation from the past. Aspects to Mercury in your sector of shared resources suggests intense conversations or a deep investigation of finances or psychological issues will be part of these developments, allowing you to develop a perspective that frees you from old limits, fears and outdated responsibilities. Watch for more information to be revealed up until April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sector of opportunities, there could be a disruption to health/work scenarios or a sudden breakthrough regarding your routines or service to others. The dynamics of a relationship can abruptly shift, and as Venus enters your partnership sector you’ll be looking at how to adjust the give and take between you and another. Venus aspecting Chiron suggests this can have a reassuring impact on you, perhaps indicating a partner who gently encourages you to step into new and risky territory. 

Virgo

Venus conjunct the South Node in your sector of self-expression can bring a powerful new attraction with a fated feeling, or a conclusion to an existing attraction/flirtation. Too, there can be a culmination regarding a creative project, performance or children/pregnancy. Aspects to Mercury in your partnership sector suggest encouraging conversations with another (a romantic or business partner) who helps you develop a broader perspective, launch something publicly or realize that there’s an audience for your talents. Developments will continue into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sector of shared resources, the unexpected could deliver a jolt of clarity, a new twist to an attraction or a surprising urge to take a risk. You may feel that you have nothing to lose, and as Venus enters your sector of routine and aspects Chiron, you’ll become focused on the practicalities of healing, working or addressing deeper insecurities/wounds. Self-care is favoured as well as innovative approaches to addressing work or medical issues. 

Libra

Venus conjunct the South Node in your domestic sector can bring past relationships or family issues/traditions to a head. Too, the sale of a house or relocation could be completed. Aspects from Mercury in your sector of routine suggest practicalities should flow smoothly and information/solutions can pave your way forward to a satisfying future goal (or new career path). These developments will continue to unfold into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your relationship sector, a partner or competitor may disrupt things with a shot of truth or a sudden realization about what you want, love or have. As Venus enters your sector of self-expression and aspects Chiron, know that this disruption can actually help you address relationships wounds as honesty and courage give you a boost of confidence to be yourself. In some cases, an unexpected new attraction could be a sweet surprise.  

Scorpio

Venus over the South Node in your communication sector indicates a crucial conversation or contact from the past. Money or relationships will be the theme, and in some cases this could mark a formal agreement. Aspects from Mercury in your sector of self-expression favour creative or romantic issues that encourage your confidence and ability to speak out, glimpse future possibilities or reach a wider audience. Information will continue to develop into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sector of routine, a sudden change in a work or health situation can disrupt the agreement or push you to ask for something different. Too, you could rethink the initial terms or decide that what’s most valuable/attractive is quite different from what you perceived. Venus’ move into your domestic sector and aspect to Chiron suggest a shift towards what’s most personal with a focus on home and family issues. This can help you address an illness or difficulties with daily routines. 

Sagittarius

Venus over the South Node in your sector of personal resources suggests closure of, or results for, an official financial issue or the expression of your values/self-esteem. Aspects to Mercury in your domestic sector favour assistance from another or the deepening of trust. Excellent for securing what’s valuable and private (domestic finances/mortgages also look good). However, be aware that the details will continue to develop into April. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sector of self-expression you could be hit by an unexpected expense or desire to take a risk/indulge/show off. As Venus enters your communication sector and aspects Chiron, the above changes can encourage a freer flow of conversation regarding an insecurity (around romance, expressions of self-worth or a creative project). Excellent for opening your eyes to new ways of expressing/appreciating yourself. A new source of income is also a possibility. 

Capricorn

Venus over the South Node in your sign can trigger a relationship issue from the past, or represent closure/culmination regarding your self-image or values. Too, you could attract someone new and it will feel like you’ve known them for years. Responsibility and commitment (to yourself or another) will be key themes. Aspects from Mercury in your communication sector favour a smooth flow of conversation with someone significant or your increased ability to connect with others in an emotionally intimate way. Excellent for a public launch, new relationship or progress in an existing relationship. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your domestic sector, watch for family events or a radical departure from the past to change your plans or surprise you with an update to what you thought you wanted. As Venus enters your sector of personal resources and aspects Chiron, you may find that this disruption helps you deal with painful family issues while increasing your awareness of what’s most valuable (financially or emotionally). An abrupt change in income stream may be featured. 

Aquarius

Venus over the South Node in your hidden sector suggests the quiet release or ending of a relationship, self-esteem or financial issue. This could involve getting real about the dream (accepting rules and accountability) or accepting the responsibility to manifest what you want. Aspects to Mercury in your sector of personal resources can help as financial discussions or your communication about what you want puts what’s hidden/undefined into an immediate emotional context. What doe this issue mean for you right now, in a health or work situation? 

As Venus squares Uranus in your communication sector, watch for unexpected info or a jolt of realization to bring developments from the background into the spotlight. As Venus enters your sign and aspects Chiron, you’ll be going public, owning what you want or deciding to speak about what’s painful/awkward in a way that’s well-received by others. This can be a confidence booster as you attract beneficial developments by acknowledging your weaknesses. 

Pisces

Venus over the South Node in your social sector indicates a key public contact, friendship or issue with your public image. This could be the results of past social developments or it could be a turning point in your reputation. Aspects to Mercury in your sign strongly favour your ability to attract positive attention (perhaps even some romantic attention) or recognition for your creative talents. Excellent for making a good impression on others with your words. 

As Venus squares Uranus in your sector of personal resources, watch for surprising disruptions to the above, and perhaps a jolt to your financial or emotional security. However, this surprise can also be an opportunity. As Venus enters your hidden sector and aspects Chiron, taking a step back and contemplating developments can help you deal with changes in your financial situation or issues that are impacting your self-esteem. 

February 23rd, 2019: Trust That You’re Moving In The Right Direction

  • Pisces Sun square Juno in Gemini (4 deg)

  • Waning Trine between the Scorpio Moon and Pisces Sun (5 deg)

  • Mercury in Pisces sextile Pluto in Capricorn (22 deg)

Sun/Juno suggests some tension over the choices in an agreement. The facts may shift or one person may be unclear about what they want (and it may be quite difficult to pin them down to one issue).

Fortunately, the Waning Trine promises a smooth flow between intensity and belief, deep commitment and transcendence. If you can step away from the facts and focus on the instinctive flow of where the situation is going, you and another should be able to facilitate an agreement. Logic may simply get in the way – trust and allowance will serve you better (trust that you’re moving in the right direction and allow it to happen).

Mercury (ruler of Gemini) makes a harmonious sextile to Pluto (ruler of Scorpio) which supports the above. Communication that’s honest, compassionate and trusting is where it’s at. Pluto in Capricorn anchors Mercury’s free-floating thoughts, helping you manifest a vague hint or idea. Mercury also activates yesterday’s Venus/Pluto conjunction, allowing you to step back from the overblown promises of the Mercury/Jupiter square and focus on what has authentic value.

Put what matters most into words and ignore the excess.

February 22nd, 2019: High Stakes

Dante Gabriel Rossetti

  • Mercury in Pisces square Jupiter in Sagittarius (21 deg)

  • Venus in Capricorn conjunct Pluto (22 deg)

An intense day with high stakes.

Jupiter stretches Mercury in Pisces’ fluid boundaries so anything seems possible and something can sound very, very good. Imagination is limitless, promises will be grand and visions will look amazing.

Potential does exist here, but there are a couple of cautions. A square to Jupiter always means exaggeration. There’s a crisis of faith and expansion- too much, too big and the details are overlooked. Plus, this is only the first of three squares (due to Mercury’s upcoming Rx). What you learn or say will not be concrete and there will be more questions. The truth will shift and the story (Jupiter) will dissolve and reform.

March 15th (Mercury Rx) and April 12th are the dates of the next two squares, so be prepared for a lengthy process of questions. Promises that you make or receive will require a second and third look. Disbelief and illusion may undermine faith. You’ll have to sort through the shimmering pictures in order to find the truth.

Venus/Pluto adds some heavy energy to the above – Pluto intensifies what you want/love, so money, relationships and values become all or nothing. Deeper resources can be uncovered and amplified value will be assigned to someone.

Venus/Pluto suggests there is a solid core to today’s events -transformative potential via the power of love or the power of realizing your own worth and self-sufficiency. Pluto also reveals the truth behind what you want as you confront rules and responsibilities (Capricorn). This could be a profound commitment; focus on the core potential and remember this as you work through the Mercury/Jupiter squares. Keep reminding yourself of what you really want.

February 21st, 2019: A Difficult Day For Relationships

  • Moon in Libra opposite Chiron in Aries (0 deg)

  • Waning Inconjunct between the Libra Moon and Pisces Sun (2 deg)

  • Libra Moon inconjunct Mars in Taurus (5 deg)

A difficult day for the Libra Moon and relationships in general.

The Moon/Chiron opposition can trigger some painful issues, including feeling out of place, unloved or unappreciated. The mood will be very, very sensitive and hurt feelings are likely.

The Moon then moves into a difficult Waning Inconjunct, presenting an adjustment to the results of February 19th’s Full Moon – awkward dynamics of give and take, balance or compromise must be factored into the Full Moon’s culmination. You may not want to acknowledge a relationship issue, but it cannot be ignored.

Finally, the Moon makes another inconjunct, this time to Mars. Subjective, stubborn actions that preserve or encourage growth will need to be balanced with the above relationship situation. Someone may not agree with what you’re doing, or perhaps there are accusations of selfishness. Taking any action may feel inappropriate, but while it may feel like a struggle, a compromise can be reached.

In general, be prepared for challenging, one-on-one exchanges today. You’ll have to put in some extra effort to keep things civil.

February 20th, 2019: Uranus Opposite Pallas Rx in Libra

  • Uranus in Aries opposite Pallas Rx in Libra (29 deg)

Uranus makes the second of two oppositions to Pallas in Libra. The first occurred on February 7th:

“Uranus…opposite Pallas does suggest that liberating moves will trigger some imbalances. Pallas in Libra’s polite social strategies will be upended, or even abruptly abandoned.

Note that this opposition (a culmination) takes places at 29 degrees (the final degree). This strongly points to the end of a social issue – you may be liberated or surprised, but either way there’s no going back.”

With today’s repeat of this aspect (due to Pallas’ Rx) you’re not exactly going back, but you are reviewing the ending. Does someone need an extra push? Do you need to reconsider your finishing strategy? Sometimes a Uranus aspect occurs twice because someone is unwilling to accept change.

Pallas Rx indicates that certain aspects of a social/relationship situation are not quite complete. There may be a couple of loose ends to ties up, or a slightly different angle is needed as you approach (or say goodbye to) someone.

Consider this as a chance to get it right. But be prepared for someone (even you) to feel that what’s happening is not nice. Libra does not enjoy being jolted and Uranus in Aries has no patience for the social game.
