Pallas’ Transit Of Taurus: Solid Strategies

pexels-photo-207205.jpeg

Pallas has come ’round to Taurus again, entering this sign on January 19th at 9:29 PM EST. I posted about her Taurus transit last year, and the same themes apply – strategies are grounded in the moment. Plans/solutions are simple and based on essentials. 

Last year, Pallas stationed Rx in Taurus, but this year she moves through fairly quickly, entering Gemini on March 29th, 2018. But her transit will still be significant, thanks to a square with the Sun that marks the start of Aquarius season. There will be a challenge in planning for now versus the future. Do you need to make sense of what you have in front of you, or do you need a more detached perspective? This will be about innovation versus what you know. 

Either way, Pallas in Taurus is about making the strategy real. It’s no longer theoretical. You must be able to touch the pattern you’re visualizing. And, it has to grow. Taurus is Fixed (supposedly unmoving), but it’s a fertile Earth sign- this will result in an eventual harvest.

  • Sun in Sagittarius trine Pallas Rx in Aries: 25 deg
  • Sun in Sagittarius trine Uranus Rx in Aries: 24 deg
  • Mercury Rx in Sagittarius trine the Leo North Node: 16 deg
  • Ceres stations Rx: 18 deg Leo

Lots of retrograde activity today, as you redo in order to reignite hope, courage and pride. Rx is also about pausing and looking within – the internal journey that enables you to mine precious gold. Allow yourself to be still, and see what emerges. 

Sun trine Pallas/Uranus energizes bold, slightly crazy strategies. Sagittarius urges you to look further and think bigger, while the Sun illuminates a pattern whose time has come. Pallas and Uranus are both Rx, so this won’t be a new strategy, but it is time to take it further. 

Mercury and the North Node say that asking again, looking again or reviewing the story is the way to develop it. In order to hook yourself into the future, you’ll have to look back.

This is a repeat aspect:

  • Nov 19th, 2017: Mercury direct trine the North Node (18 deg)
  • Dec 29th, 2017: Mercury direct trine the North Node (15 deg)

You’ll be revisiting a conversation or idea that has strong future potential, but it won’t develop instantly. 

Ceres Rx  urges you to go back over a creation/point of pride that you’ve been nurturing. Maybe it’s not quite ready to be displayed. Or, this could be a second chance bring life to something.

  • Jupiter in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces: 11 deg
  • Ceres in Leo conjunct the North Node: 17 deg

Jupiter/Neptune is the first of three trines (May 25th, 2018 and July 10th, 2018 are the other dates when this aspect will be exact). Jupiter and Neptune are both expansive influences – Jupiter stretches the limits and Neptune dissolves them. Combine the two, and you get a very slippery slide into something deep (Scorpio) and dreamy (Pisces). And, the trine is such an easy influence that nothing will stand in your way. It will be natural and effortless. 

This can be an addiction-enabler or a dissolver of fears. Jupiter plus Neptune means transcendent ideals and euphoric truths. Jupiter will encourage you to go all the way, and Neptune will whisper that it’s pure. Or, that you don’t have to worry about anything. Just let it happen.

A trine is normally a positive aspect, but in this case, I think much depends on what’s happening in your life and where this trine will hit your chart. It can plunge you into something, but will that help or undermine you? Pay close attention to what you’re plunging into, because you’ll end up submerged. And it will feel good. If this is a healthy path for you, it should continue to feel good. But if this is an addiction or illusion, eventually you’ll hit a point where the bubble bursts and the euphoria sours. 

Ceres/North Node is the moment when that special creation or area of confidence/joy can open a door to the future. Maybe you’ve nurtured a project/purpose to the point where you can see the next stage of its growth. Here’s the opportunity to take it further – take it into the spotlight, where you’ve always known it should be.
