  • Mars Rx in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus (2 deg)
  • Vesta direct in Sagittarius (22 deg)

Mars makes the second of three squares to Uranus. The disruption or break for freedom is not over. Despite the flash-bang quality of this energy, this is an extended influence. It’s about detaching from the past, but that detachment may require more than the usual amount of effort. 

Mars Rx specifically means try again or review your actions. What are your true motivations and where are you going? If you’re refusing to change, this Rx could be the harder shake – the jolt that you’ve been trying to avoid. Or, it could be the second chance that you’ve been waiting for. 

As I wrote in this post:

“The abrupt shove will introduce Uranus’ seven years of change in Taurus…Mars Rx in Aquarius intensifies specific actions so the move towards independence can happen (sometimes it takes extra effort to break away from the past). Or, Mars Rx can delay actions/progress if the impulse is poorly timed.”

Here are the three squares:

  • May 16th: Mars square Uranus (0 deg Taurus)
  • August 1st: Mars Rx square Uranus (2 deg Taurus)
  • September 18th: Mars square Uranus Rx (1 deg Taurus)

Vesta direct can widen Vesta Rx’s tunnel vision.  If you’ve been fixated on a truth, ideal or hope since Vesta stationed Rx (May 8th, 2018) her direct motion suggests you may be ready to look further. What has Vesta Rx taught you? Has your faith been renewed or are you now disappointed? Either way, it’s time to move on because Sagittarius’ horizons are always widening. Keep searching for new truths, new ideals. Expanding faith will feed Vesta’s flame. 

With direct and Rx emphasized on the same day, you may feel the tension between looking forward but dealing with delays/reviews. Everything does not always move in the same direction. You can deal with this by looking ahead where it feels natural to do so, and accepting that the wheels are spinning in another part of your life. Know that in a few weeks (once Mars stations direct) there will be progress here too.

    Pallas’ Transit of Leo

    Pallas enters Leo on July 11th, 2018. Her strategies and patterns are dramatic in this sign- the exciting solution or the showy creation. 

    This is the transit of bold, public strategies – the masterstroke designed to impress. Look how I’ve saved the day! The goal is to blow others away, and the impact is just as important as the effectiveness of the solution. Ditto for creative work – applause is the final goal and designs are meant to grab attention. The joy that went into creating something will be evident, and creations will bring joy. This is a celebration of what’s bright and beautiful. 

    If you’re planning, creating, designing or addressing a problem, this transit suggests your efforts will be shinier than usual. Play to the audience and use people’s reactions as an indicator of how successful you’ve been. This is not the moment to hide your work. 

    Pallas will exit Leo for Virgo on September 4th, 2018.

    Pallas’ Transit of Cancer

    Pallas (strategies, wisdom, seeing patterns) enters Cancer on May 21st. Cancer’s protectiveness and empathy (towards family and loved ones) mix with Pallas’ wisdom and concern with justice (Pallas is named after Pallas Athena, the warrior goddess of wisdom). Patterns are based on what feels safe and looks comfortable, BUT, this can also be a time when you see a family pattern of abuse or addiction or any negative inheritance. Pallas connects the dots and she can do so creatively (home decorating, home business) or on a deeper level.

    Home, family and mother/child issues become the focus for strategies. This is a good transit if you need to dig into the past, tackle a family problem or figure out the best way to cook for/nurture others. Excellent for family counselling. Intuition is heightened – if you’re stuck, pay attention to your gut. 

    Pallas will exit Cancer for Leo on July 11th, 2018.

    Juno’s Transit of Aries: Brave New Partnership

    Juno enters Aries on April 28th, 2018 at 3:44 AM EDT. This could be about a brand new partnership or issues of independence/pushiness/courage in a relationship. Whether a new or existing partnership is involved, the mutual handling of anger and independence will be key. Do you both have the courage to enter new territory together? 

    Juno in Aries describes two individuals in a relationship. There is no merging, just an agreement to respect each other’s autonomy. Neediness or efforts to control/restrict will trigger difficulties. 

    Since Aries is the first sign, this transit could indicate an entirely new facet of a partnership, or a newborn contract that’s full of passion and excitement for the future. Forward movement is key now – the agreement must encourage mutual progress. Problems can arise when one partner doesn’t want to advance. 

    As noted in this weeks’s horoscopes, Juno conjoins Chiron on April 29th. New agreement, new partnership, new wound. Right out of the gate, you’ll be confronting Chiron in Aries issues – perhaps you and another are fighting to be together in the face of disapproval. Or one partner’s urge for freedom raises fears of infidelity and abandonment. One partner may be ready to confront the wound but the other is not.

    Juno/Chiron suggests a union with a maverick quality – others are offended or challenged by it. What do you do in the face of those challenges, when they hurt? Ideally, you join forces and are stronger because of it. 

    Juno will exit Aries for Taurus on July 1st, 2018.
