  • Third Quarter Square between the Leo Moon and Scorpio Sun (27°)

  • Venus in Sagittarius square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (22°)

The Third Quarter Square raises questions about the spotlight of external recognition versus the darkness of internal shadow work, secrets and investigations. The tension of this square does not demand action. Rather, it urges you to question what’s been hidden or forbidden. Issues of fame, pride or bold displays will create a jarring contrast with what’s going on behind the scenes. The questions can become obsessive as you fixate on what’s bright and obvious-has some jealousy been triggered? What are the shadow issues behind the bright light?

Venus/BML is about the tension between new and expansive relationships, values and optimistic ideals versus the cool and subtle current of taboo female sexuality: the witch, other woman, prostitute or outsider has a hard- to- pin-down magic that subverts more acceptable beliefs about women and female values. At this point of tension, it is proper and timely to question your beliefs before you move forward. In some way, a new experience will challenge Lilith’s slippery magic. This could be a question of sexual ethics or the struggle between man -made beliefs versus undefined spiritual energy.

November 18th, 2019: Leo Moon Challenges

Yod.jpg

  • Leo Moon square Mercury RX in Scorpio (11°)

  • Leo Moon inconjunct Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

  • Leo Moon inconjunct Saturn in Capricorn (16°)

Moon square Mercury RX can trigger discordant or anxious thoughts as profoundly focused ideas clash with bold, showy energy. A square is a crisis aspect, and the tension of this crisis can bring to light a particular secret or insight about fame or the need for appreciation. 

The Moon then becomes the focal point of a brief Yod: the inconjuncts to Neptune and Saturn will highlight the disconnect between ego/ drama/me first versus the Saturn/Neptune blend of sacrifice and quiet manifestation. Saturn and Neptune form a separating sextile, which represents the blend of dreams and reality (and the small sacrifice necessary to make it work). The focal point is also the difficult point of integration: it may be a struggle to achieve recognition or to balance pride with work and humility. But somehow, pride and recognition will put a spotlight on your sacrifice. 

This is not a “poor me” influence-it’s taking credit for the quiet work that you’ve done while remembering that dreams have limits and what’s solid can be dissolved.
