July 17th, 2017: Play It Smart, Not Crazy

  • Venus in Gemini square Neptune Rx in Pisces: 14 degrees
  • Mars in Cancer square Uranus in Aries: 28 degrees

When the planets of love (Venus) and sex (Mars) both make hard aspects to the outer planets, you know today has the potential to go off the rails. There could be an emotional pursuit of someone who doesn’t exist – you’re “in love” with their Instagram account. Or, the drunken text that seems edgy-sexy at the time. But you regret it the next morning.

Of course, this can be about other things. Venus is what you want and Mars is what you do to get it. Venus covers money, self-esteem, beauty and all social interactions. Mars is anger, violence, action.

Neptune’s blurry square can enhance a craving for something impossible, so you end up making the wrong choice (Gemini). Uranus’ push can trigger impulsive actions as you snap or take a risk. The root cause will probably involve a need (Cancer) that must be met ASAP. 

As I wrote in this week’s horoscopes, Venus and Mars will calm down on the 18th with some beneficial aspects (post to follow on the 18th). So there is good potential here – Venus/Neptune can lead to something beautiful, compassionate and creative. Mars/Uranus can set you free as you give suffocating traditions/family the boot. The net result is expansion and opening. Exhale. 

But you have to be careful today. Really careful. Think before you act. Consider your options. If you’re tempted to dive headfirst into something, ask yourself if it’s in your best interests. If you’re trying to open something up or pursue, control your impatience and move carefully. Do you really want X, or is something else at play? 

 

Vesta Enters Virgo: Ultra Pure

Fernand Khnopff

Fernand Khnopff

Vesta enters Virgo on July 17th. Her extreme focus becomes even more extreme in the sign of details and perfection. Concentration is cranked up until the strings hum with tension. 

This transit is about devotion to making it better. “It” will vary, according to the Virgo house(s) in your chart. There may be a specific detail that you become obsessed with. Or, a health issue will demand your attention. Service and mundane tasks can become religious – each small action is part of a ritual. Vesta in Virgo is about finding the sacred in daily life.

This can be a time to explore the deeper connotations of virginity. Virgo the Virgin meets the goddess whose Vestal Virgins tended her temple flame. The original meaning of virgin referred to an unmarried woman: her sexuality did not belong to any man. Taking that a step further with chastity, you keep that energy for yourself because you want to focus it elsewhere. You’re in control, and you decide what you to do with your body, your temple. 

The benefits of this transit include absolute purification – fervent deep cleaning on a physical/material level. Also, concentration can be enhanced to ungodly levels. You see the details that no one else sees, and you correct and polish ruthlessly. 

Bam.

The downside is probably obvious – crazy fixations on diet, exercise, criticism. It’s not good enough/never good enough, and you can’t see beyond the “flaw” because Vesta has blinded you to the bigger picture. Chastity is distorted into guilt, fear and repression. Sex becomes impure.

Healthy Vesta in Virgo is like exfoliation that reveals glowing skin. Distorted Vesta in Virgo continues to exfoliate until you bleed. 

In general, this transit will call your attention to something that can be improved and refined. Make sure you focus on the improvement, not just the flaw. 

Vesta will exit Virgo on September 18th, 2017.

Overview 

On July 17th, Venus in Gemini squares Neptune Rx in Pisces and Mars in Cancer squares Uranus in Aries. Alluring choices will be deceptive or confusing, and actions/passion can disrupt everything. Not a good day to jump into something with your eyes closed, although it will be tempting. On July 18th, the positive potential of these influences is revealed as Venus trines Jupiter in Libra and Mars trines Chiron Rx in Pisces. Creativity, compassion and healing are favoured – what’s stirred up the day before can bring surprising benefits, if you handle these energies carefully. 

July 19th brings a promising trine between Mercury in Leo and Saturn Rx in Sagittarius, followed by Mercury’s conjunction to the North Node on July 21st. Here is the commitment, conversation or plan you can rely on. Not only is it real, it’s plugged into your future. 

Mars enters Leo on July 20th, followed by the Sun’s ingress on July 22nd. This leads up to July 23rd’s hot New Moon in Leo conjunct Mars. It doesn’t get more combustible than this – Mars adds passion and raw intent to what’s starting. An applying opposition between Venus in Gemini and Saturn Rx will add a touch of background restraint, reminding you what’s at stake. 

Aries

Aspects to Venus in your communication sector suggest romantic mixed signals – the flirtation that never was, or the hidden attraction that’s unintentionally revealed. Aspects to Mars in your domestic sector (including the square to Uranus in your sign) trigger surprising family reveals, domestic disruptions or impatience. A domestic partnership can be shaken as you abruptly shift priorities. However, the results of what’s shaken can include improved relationships, cooperation or an apology (once the initial point of tension has been dealt with). It may be necessary to go through confusion/disappointment in order to get to the real issue. 

Aspects Mercury in your sector of self-expression can clarify a future goal/opportunity. Plans (involving creative work, children, performance or a new attraction) can fall into place via a solid piece of news or a conversation you can trust. If there’s something that you want to say/write, go for it – others will be receptive to your focus and ability to provide proof.  You can make it all about you, as long as you’ve got the discipline to carry through with your intentions. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your sector of self-expression will fire up what Mercury suggested. Watch for a surge of confidence, a desire to show off/take a risk, or a hot start to a new romance. 

Taurus

Aspects to Venus in your sector of personal resources can encourage overspending as you lose track of what you have (or what you might make) in a rush of enthusiasm. You’ll want to help, but others can mislead you (intentionally or unintentionally) – use extreme caution if loaning money or pooling your resources. Aspects to Mars in your communication sector suggest that an argument can flare up quickly. Or, you may surprise everyone as you abruptly speak your mind. Too, you could be shaken when you discover a truth. But this mix of influences can also lead to a healing confrontation with a friend/group. Or, a public reveal/argument can trigger relief as everything is finally out in the open. 

Aspects to Mercury in your domestic sector favour future plans for a home business, relocation or changes to the family. You can get a handle on domestic finances, or sensitive issues with a partner, if you’re willing to talk calmly and engage in some long-term planning. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon into your domestic sector suggest that the above plans can lead to a positive, powerful new chapter at home/with family. Good for launching a home business or initiating changes with those closest to you. 

Gemini

Aspects to Venus in your sign suggest confusing or misaligned professional goals. There’s opportunity to impress, sell or make a favourable impact with your professional image, but someone in authority may undermine you. Or, you may misjudge how management responds to your great idea. Aspects to Mars in your sector of personal resources suggests caution in all financial matters. Your efforts to go after a raise or pursue a new source of income can result in unexpected results, especially if you act without thinking, or react to someone else’s prompt. Who’s calling the shots? Too, there can be unexpected expenses. However, if you’re careful and take note of all the facts (not just the ones you want to see) these influences can indicate success, as you openly address a longstanding career issue. 

Aspects to Mercury in your communication sector indicate a significant conversation or decision involving a partner (business or romantic). Joint goals can converge and harmonize, as you each support the other and solidify future plans. Cooperation is highly favoured. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your communication sector light the fuse that Mercury prepared. Watch for the news/conversation to lead to something bright, bold and exciting – a business launch, ambitious new project for you and your partner, or a chance to gain significant attention for your ideas. Amidst all the excitement, the opposition between Venus in your sign and Saturn Rx will keep you focused on the important issue or choice.

Cancer

Aspects to Venus in your hidden sector suggest a confusing attraction or hidden desire. It will be easy to wander off the path and get distracted by the illusion of what could be. Aspects to Mars in your sign can encourage impulsive actions, or unexpected results if you pursue said illusion. Be very clear about what you want, what you already have, and what’s actually available, before you jump in. On the plus side, creativity and compassion will be at an all- time high – you can redirect this energy towards helping others, or improving a family situation. The key for a positive outcome will be for you to slow down and be totally honest about your intentions. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of personal resources can bring a solid lead on a new job, new source of income or smart way to handle/increase your money. This is not a quick fix – discipline, planning and a serious look at your daily routines are necessary. Are you ready to get serious about solidifying your security base?

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your sector of personal resources can help you build on those smart plans, as a bright opportunity makes itself known. Here is your chance to go after what you need, stand up for yourself, increase your rates or act like you deserve to be treated like a King/Queen. No one’s going to hand this to you- get moving. 

Leo

Aspects to Venus in your social sector can trigger a confusing shift from platonic to romantic (or vice versa). Relationships will not be clear-cut, and hidden attractions may be exposed. Too, you could be motivated to help a friend or support a cause, but use extra caution if money is involved – good intentions may overwhelm common sense. Aspects to Mars in your hidden sector suggest abrupt actions that are unconsciously motivated. Before you start something/react, consider your true motivations – it will be easy to deceive yourself, and others. The positive potentials for these influences include the release of a deeply-buried wound or painful secret. Although the release may be more public than you’re comfortable with, the outcome could benefit you. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sign (including the conjunction to the North Node) put you right on track with a future goal. Something you’ve been working towards can be confirmed. Watch for a messenger, piece of news or excellent idea with long-term potential. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your sign up the stakes by giving you all the initiative, courage and confidence you can handle. It’s go time for your next chapter – a launch, new job, new lifestyle, makeover or relationship will be off to a blazing start. Want to continue that momentum? Stay focused on the future, and impress others with your commitment (rather than just relying on your charm and grandiose promises). The opposition between Venus in your social sector and Saturn Rx is a reminder that only one path is open to you, and it will demand your continued effort.

Virgo

Aspects to Venus in your career sector can blur the lines in a professional relationship, or create hopeful but confusing issues with management. You’ll see room for growth (and maybe more money) but don’t get distracted by what could be. Focus on what is. Use extra caution with a professional relationship that edges into personal territory. Aspects to Mars in your social sector can trigger sudden disagreements with friends/groups, or unexpected public actions. The reactions of others will catch you off guard, although in some circumstances, your bold move can open up a lucrative new path. This can also help you overcome a fear/hesitation about your public image.

Aspects to Mercury in your hidden sector signal the next stage in the development of a background project or dream. You’re putting it into words and making it real, even if no one knows about it (yet). It is possible, and the Sun, Mars and New Moon into your hidden sector could present a reason for you to take action. Motivation may be a bit difficult to come by, especially if you feel like pulling back from others. This can your own, private thing – just don’t allow fears to throw you off track. Spiritual, meditative or solitary pursuits are favoured. 

Libra

Aspects to Venus in your sector of opportunities (including the trine to Jupiter in your sign) can open up something new and intriguing in the areas of education, long- distance travel, long-distance romance, legal matters or publishing. There’s definitely room to take this further, but first, make sure your vision of what might be is aligned with reality. If there are multiple choices, some of them won’t be solid. It will also be easy to become distracted by an influx of new and interesting things, thereby forgetting what you really wanted in the first place. If you’re travelling, make sure any medical issues have been addressed. Aspects to Mars in your career sector can trigger a surprising bout of competition, or an unexpected challenge to your authority. Too, your impatient actions (or anger) can have consequences for your professional image. But there is a touchy issue that needs to be addressed (involving daily responsibilities or health) and a surprising challenge may be what’s needed to get things out into the open. 

Aspects to Mercury in your social sector can put you in contact with someone who might be an important guide for the future. Keep your eyes open for a messenger, key contact or friend. If you’re making a public statement, joining a group or networking, you can establish some solid contacts – others will respect what you have to say. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your social sector add more excitement to the mix, with a brilliant, public opportunity. Your social life can accelerate, or you can show off your talents/style to an appreciative audience. 

Scorpio

Aspects to Venus in your sector of shared resources suggest swooning romance, immersive intimacy or immersive debt. You may lose yourself in someone, or lose track of what you owe/spend. Keep tabs on things like boundaries and financial realities. Aspects to Mars in your sector of opportunities can present the unexpected in education, long-distance travel, legal matters or publishing. Plans can be disrupted and you may feel pushed to jump into the unknown or fight for something you believe in. There’s potential to do some good here (especially if you are fighting for a higher cause) but be very careful if you are exploring unknown territory – this is not the best time to take risks. If you’re counting on a specific legal result, be prepared to have your expectations shaken. 

Aspects to Mercury in your career sector can help you nail down a professional lead, or cement your relationship to someone in authority. A new business will be off to a solid start, based on your clear vision and disciplined focus. You know exactly what you want, and you’ve got the proof, plans and facts to back it up. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your career sector add fuel to your professional fire, with an exciting new job or sizzling new professional image. A business/product launch is favoured, as is any professional issue where you want maximum attention. Your ambition will be high, and others will be watching. If you’re feeling competitive, this influence can help you crush the competition, but exercise some restraint – you can also make enemies if you lose your temper. 

Sagittarius

Aspects to Venus in your partnership sector suggest confusion and wishful thinking in a relationship. You may have one idea about what you’ve love to happen, but your partner could be wandering down a totally different track. New and existing relationships areprone to mixed messages. In some cases, what you thought was a new attraction could turn out to be nothing more than a friendship. Aspects to Mars in your sector of shared resources can present unexpected expenses or sudden disagreements with a partner. Conflict can flare up and sensitive issues (like intimacy or shared finances) will be involved. In some cases, a new attraction may become intimate too quickly. On the plus side, this touchy mix of influences can open the door to healing communication. Even if things don’t go your way, you can make significant progress when you air sensitive issues from the past. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of opportunities (including the trine to Saturn Rx in your sign) present a golden ticket – it may not be flashy, but you can rely on what you hear/learn in the areas of education, travel, legal matters or publishing. Those extra responsibilities you’ve been shouldering can pay off, as a door opens and you see how you can take this further. Higher education/teaching is especially favoured. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your opportunities sector add to the above, giving you a bold new reason to try something completely new. Travel, explore, broaden your horizons or reach out to a whole new audience – this is your moment to push forward, driven by your passion to see what else is out there. At the same time, the opposition between Saturn Rx in your sign and Venus reminds you of a relationship goal, commitment or restriction. 

Capricorn

Aspects to Venus in your sector of routine can distract you from what needs to be done, or blur the boundaries with a co-worker. Too, you could misjudge the amount of assistance or goodwill available to you. It might be difficult to remain focused on a particular health/work issue – while it will be easier to slack off, there are significant benefits available if you make the correct choice. Aspects to Mars in your partnership sector can trigger unexpected disputes with a domestic partner. A relationships sudden change in direction can catch you off guard, and you may be challenged to keep up. The positive side of all these influences includes a chance to access creative solutions, on a personal and professional level. An argument may be followed by an apology. Progress in work matters (including recognition from management) is possible if you minimize distractions. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of shared resources can confirm that you’re on the right path regarding a debt, tax issue or your partner’s finances. Too, an intimate conversation, shared secret or deeper understanding can result in a quiet but solid sense of stability. You’ll know on a gut level that what you hear/read is correct. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your sector of shared resources can ignite a deeper level of intimacy in a new or existing relationship. Initial discord can pave the way for something more trusting and powerful. Regarding financial or psychological issues, urgency, ambition or anger can make you feel out of control, especially if someone else is calling the shots. However, this is an opportunity to boldly tackle a subject that you’ve been avoiding. There’s courage available to you, as you go someplace where most fear to tread.  

Aquarius

Aspects to Venus in your sector of self-expression suggest a dreamy new attraction/flirtation, or a desire to celebrate, spend, indulge. These are all good things, but watch that you don’t overdo it, or pin all your hopes on one message/meeting.  Keep your expectations light and flexible.  On a creative level, your imagination and sensitivity will be pronounced, so this is a perfect influence for writing/performing. Aspects to Mars in your sector of routine can trigger accidents, overwork or burnout, as you tackle unexpected extras. Your energy level will be high, but you can move too quickly and overlook something crucial. 

Aspects to Mercury in your partnership sector suggest a crucial meeting/conversation with someone who could prove to be a significant ally in the future. A relationship conversation will be loaded with significance, even if the content is not especially exciting. There’s something here that you can build on, including a promise or commitment. 

The Sun, Mars and New Moon in your partnership sector can light the fire of a passionate new relationship, or introduce a powerful new chapter in an existing partnership. You may feel a bit uncomfortable, especially if the other person is taking control and boldly declaring their feelings.

Pisces

Aspects to Venus in your domestic sector (including the square to Neptune Rx in your sign) suggest some confusing moments involving family, a domestic partnership, home business, relocation or home improvements. There’s potential to give/spend a great deal, whether you’re trying to help or improve matters. But your boundaries may be compromised and you could lose track of your primary goal, esecpailly if you become distracted by family dynamics or issues from the past. Aspects to Mars in your sector of self-expression suggest a hot new attraction, or surprising action on your part. Your abrupt bid for attention can have unexpected consequences. Too, you may suddenly decide that now is the time to take a risk or cut loose. While there’s potential for things to go wrong, the trine to Chiron Rx in your sign suggests a bit of calculated risk might do you some good – if you don’t go too crazy, you can confront and move past an ongoing insecurity. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of routine can confirm a work or health solution. An interview has strong potential for success. Too, responsibilities at work can progress nicely, and your ideas will be well-received by those in authority. As the Sun, Mars and New Moon activate this sector, watch for a new job/new position to open up. These influences also favour increased energy, optimism and vitality – excellent for starting a new exercise routine or overhauling your health/diet/lifestyle. 

Ceres’ Transit of Cancer

Honoré Daumier

Honoré Daumier

Ceres enters Cancer today, and she’s right at home in this sign. 

She’s the Great Mother and goddess of the crops. The loss of her daughter (Persephone) to the King of the Underworld (Pluto) resulted in the crops withering until Persephone was allowed to return for part of the year.

Cancer is about sustenance, emotional protection and mother/child.

Ceres’ transit of Cancer could stir up the perfect storm for these issues – your relationship with food, your relationship with Mom, codependence, fear of being abandoned, etc. However, this transit can also favour the birth of a child or your own self-nurturing. Much depends on what’s churned up from the past, and your current experience of getting your needs met. 

Ceres is as much about loss as she is about nurturing and feeding. On the same day as she enters Cancer, the Cancer Sun will make an exact opposition to Pluto Rx in Capricorn (18 degrees). Not only does this recall the the recent Capricorn Full Moon, it weaves Pluto’s undercurrent of death into her transit. Don’t be scared – Pluto’s “death” is often metaphorical and necessary. The absolute ending. And Ceres into Cancer is a brand new beginning, which can only happen after an absolute ending/transformation. 

Of particular note will be Ceres’ opposition to Pluto (17 degrees) on August 21st, 2017. 

This transit could confront you with a loss, in the present or from the deep past. But there’s also potential to build a powerful bond between yourself and another. The relationship between you and your Mom or child could be permanently transformed. Or, you could decide that it’s time to get serious about looking after yourself.

Ceres will exit Cancer on September 24th, 2017. 

Horoscopes for July 9th to July 16th, 2017

Arthur Hacker

Overview

The July 8th/9th Pluto-infused Capricorn Full Moon may shake you on some profound level. Pluto unearths what’s buried beneath Capricorn’s structure. What will be revealed? A death/rebirth, corruption, power, success…Jupiter in Libra squares this Moon, so the reward might be big. So might the ending. Actually, there will be an ending, no matter what occurs – Full Moons always close one chapter. This door will slam shut with some force. Bid those old rules farewell – you’re dealing with a new order now. 

July 13th to 14th offers up a magical, disorienting Yod. Jupiter in Libra makes a smooth sextile to Mercury in Leo – big, shiny optimism. There will be so much potential in the glowing words. But Mercury and Jupiter both make incompatible inconjuncts to Neptune Rx in Pisces, indicating that the beautiful idea will be funnelled through unproven dreams. The result could be a lovely promise that evaporates, or a plan that dissolves as you try to explain it.

A Yod gives you a task, described by the focal planet (in this case, Neptune). So your task will be to translate the sales pitch/romantic story/big hope into something that transcends earthly concepts of success or love. Take it from conditional to unconditional, without losing the essence of what you’re trying to communicate. In other words, take it higher and make it about something that’s not just about you. Sound impossible? Welcome to the Yod. The pitfalls are many, because Neptune is an elusive focal point. But if you succeed, this could be your dream come true – from your lips to the Divine’s ears.

Aries

The Full Moon in your career sector delivers results about a job search, professional image or management. Challenges to authority or exposure of motivations/power may be part of the package. Too, you could reach your limit regarding personal versus professional priorities. A partnership (business or personal) could reach a dramatic turning point, as exaggerated expectations accelerate the conclusion. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your hidden sector hi-light a secret motivation. Big promises and beautiful words will paint a lovely picture. But pay attention to the background dream – an unspoken fantasy can result in significant misunderstandings between you and another. 

Taurus

The Full Moon in your sector of opportunities marks a culmination for a travel, education, legal or publishing issue. There may be a surge of ambition/anger, as you dive into the unknown or declare something. Too, you could be pressured to sign, answer or deliver results – even if you feel unprepared, now’s the time to say it/write it. For some, a legal matter could involve the exposure of corruption. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your social sector can make a public ideal or issue with friends/groups a moving target. You’ll have some optimistic thoughts about what should happen, but others may not understand you. The gulf between personal versus public could be tricky, especially if you’re trying to sell, promote or convince. Work on refining your message, and be prepared to make a series of adjustments until everyone is on the same page. 

Gemini

The Full Moon in your sector of shared resources can open things up on a deeper level. Debts, taxes, loans, your partner’s finances or physical/emotional intimacy may feature the exposure of personal issues that you don’t have complete control over. What someone else has, or what you want, can be part of an intensive power play. A new attraction may push you further than anticipated. Too, overspending, jealousy or compulsive habits can be hi-lighted. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your career sector underline a professional dream, or dealings with someone in authority. Your hopes may be elevated by what’s implied, but the actual result can be slippery – a careful readjustment of facts versus expectations will be essential in preventing disappointment or the complete dissolution of a goal. If you’re attempting to promote, launch or impress someone with your business ideas, keep your ultimate goal in mind – it will be easy to lose track of the big picture.

Cancer

The Full Moon in your partnership sector brings a relationship to a turning point. A result or ending will involve efforts to redefine someone’s identity as partner. You may be pushing to evolve, or your partner may have some ideas about where they want to go. Domestic changes (expansion, relocation) can accelerate, and whether there’s an ending or new chapter, the outcome can mean positive growth for both of you. You may feel challenged (or threatened) by what your partner is doing, so make an effort to stay calm and avoid fight/flight reactions. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your sector of opportunities suggest that a distant goal involving education, travel, legal matters or publishing will be in your sights. The promise of more (more exposure, more money, more success) will be tempting, but you may have to step back and measure your current situation against the future. A fantastic vision won’t line up exactly with what you already have at your disposal. Keep the vision in mind as you recalibrate your ideas. Be especially careful if you’re buying or selling. 

Leo

The Full Moon in your sector of routine can present an overwhelming result involving work or health. News, extra tasks or changes in your work environment (job ending or beginning) can add more to your plate. The imbalance between what you want to do versus what you have to do will increase. Then again, a solution or improvement can be dramatically effective. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your sector of shared resources (including the inconjunct to Mercury in your sign) can see you trying to make sense of debts, taxes, loans, your partner’s finances, or intimacy issues. You know there’s something deeper to uncover, but it may be difficult to access the information. You’re ready for an open discussion, but someone else may not be. Too, you could find it easier to focus on happy, surface events while ignoring the slipperier, more difficult issues underneath. In all cases, it will be to your advantage to stop talking and just listen. Put your big ideas aside for a moment and work on being receptive to what’s not being said. 

Virgo

The Full Moon in your sector of self-expression suggests results involving creative work, a new romance or children. There’s powerful, positive potential here, especially if you’re trying to get attention or looking to impress/attract. A financially lucrative opportunity could be connected to an artistic project. However, if you’re celebrating or spending, it will be easy to overdo it, because you’ll feel like you deserve a massive reward. And there could be a very nice reward, but try to exercise some restraint. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your relationship sector hi-light a hopeful but vague partnership issue. A new relationship may be difficult to define. In an existing relationship, you may have to look beyond surface niceties. Positive developments should be nurtured, but don’t get caught up in projections. Before you move ahead, make sure you have all the facts and the other person is hearing what you’re saying. Also, stay alert to what’s not being said – secrets and white lies will lead to disillusionment. But an honest discussion about what’s being avoided can open up a newly compassionate connection. Unconditional love/acceptance between partners is possible. 

Libra

The Full Moon in your domestic sector (including the square to Jupiter in your sign) hi-lights expansion, improvement and forward movement with home/family. A relocation, renovation or change in priorities can be a significant upgrade. And you’ll have the drive and enthusiasm to make it happen. However, a significant ending (or transition that feels like an ending) is also a possibility. Either way, future success will be your motivation. Watch for a significant shift in the power balance between you and a family member/domestic partner. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx (including the inconjunct to Jupiter in your sign) in your sector of routine can see you attempting to make sense of health or work issues. You’ve got some bright ideas, but translating them into something workable on a daily basis may be challenging. Everything will not fall into place neatly – leave room to accommodate the unpredictable, or the undefinable. If things don’t go according to plan, know that the alternate route (or loss) may work in your favour. 

Scorpio

The Full Moon in your communication sector can deliver a powerful answer or final decision. There may be a document signing or change in status. Too, the discovery of some information can pack a punch, as far more is revealed than you thought possible. In some cases, an unexpected save or loophole may be part of the process. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your sector of self-expression can make the realistic assessment of a creative or romantic opportunity difficult. Things may seem gloriously promising, and there is some good potential here. But make sure you account for unacknowledged expectations, and a disconnect between the official word versus creative interpretation. Someone may promise more than they can deliver, or, you may go public with some news before the facts have been confirmed.

Sagittarius

The Full Moon in your sector of personal resources can hi-light a financial shortfall, troublesome spending habits, or a crucial lack of emotional support. Your needs may be far greater than what’s available, and others (or your reaction to others) may encourage you to push for more than is available. Before you demand more from a partner, or spend what you don’t have, consider if there are authentic, reliable ways to make yourself feel satisfied and secure. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your domestic sector suggest an issue with home/family/home business/renovations can be difficult to pin down. Plans for the future may be bright and enthusiastic, but you’ll have to deal with a hard-to-define leak – this could be a drain on your energy, or a physical problem with your dwelling. Attempts to move ahead can be undermined by lingering issues with illness or toxic family history. Focus on the problem (rather than skipping over it in hopes it will go away) and you should be able to translate big ideals into something that works for you on a personal level. 

Capricorn

The Full Moon in your sign can signal a now-or-never turning point, as you challenge someone, or are challenged. If someone’s been pushing you, you may finally snap and retaliate with ten times the force. There could be a significant reveal, involving your desire for a big change, more power or more control. Success, ambition and increasing your status may be themes. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your communication sector can make a promise or idea difficult to pin down. You may have an exalted vision, but actually putting it into words will call for a tricky balance between future goals and deeper (possibly hidden) facts/ figures. Too, someone else’s big dream may not be what you had in mind. In the end, you’ll have to release certain expectations while making sure that your words are heard clearly. This means being completely honest about anything that’s been buried/unacknowledged. 

Aquarius

The Full Moon in your hidden sector can be a time for you to pull back, rest and focus on the deeper, quieter areas of your life. Work stress, health issues or burnout may peak if you’ve been ignoring what you know is best for you, in favour of too much/too fast. Too, a work or health issue can be revealed, and the impact on your life can grow as the weeks progress. 

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your sector of personal resources creates tricky energy around money and self-esteem issues. You know you want to make more, or make yourself feel better. But juggling expansion (and someone else’s plans) with the ongoing simplification/refinement of your security base can be challenging. Nonetheless, there ispotential to translate your dream job/dream life into something that’s lucrative and fulfilling. Always keep your primary objective in mind – it has to resonate with you, and it has to be simpler/more forgiving (no punishment or sacrifice allowed) than what came before. Watch for opportunity (with a specific person) involving travel, education or legal matters.

The Full Moon in your social sector suggests a public culmination or ending. A friendship or group association could change irrevocably, perhaps due to a “new you” that’s been struggling to emerge for awhile.

Aspects to Neptune Rx in your sign point the finger at a specific dream, longing or ongoing transformation. You know what you want to say, or how you’d like things to go, but confusion or misguided conversations can undermine things. Your attempt to translate practical facts/figures may fail – this isn’t really a practical issue. Instead, aim for a midpoint between logic and intuition, dreams and reality. It has to work in real life, but at a certain point, you’ll need to let go and allow the situation to flow in the direction it wants to go.
