Looking Ahead with The Past in Mind: a 2nd Look at the January 10, 2020 Eclipseby Jude CowellOn January 10, 2020 will manifest a penumbral lunar eclipse, aka, an appulse eclipse (light not fully dimmed); for more info see Keith’s Lunar Eclipse Page.

The Full Moon occurs at 05:32 (BST) on September 14, 2019 at 21°Pi05′. Still, there is no air in the chart. With a high number of planets in Earth signs combined with this watery Moon, we’d be forgiven for thinking we’re slogging through muddy ground. The atmosphere feels thick and heavy, yet the skies draw […]

Deviant Art This week we have two stelliums (groupings of planets) in Earth signs forming a trine to each other. This is generally a very favorable planetary condition since the Earth planets can work together to support and foster stability. We have four planets in Virgo, including the Sun/Mercury/Mars conjunction that culminated on […]
The post Planetary news this week: Earth abounds, and a Pisces Full Moon appeared first on Astrology readings and writings by Lynn Hayes.
Mars in Virgo trine Saturn in Capricorn (13 deg)
Mars in Virgo opposite Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (14 deg)
Cautious actions (Mars in Virgo) harmonize with the rules (Saturn). Excellent for focus, doing what needs to be done and working carefully.
But the opposition to BML suggests that actions/male energy will be at odds with the “dangerous” woman. BML in Pisces is the witch, the seductress or the woman on the fringes who defies definition. Mars trine Saturn wants to define and make it official and this will directly contradict what Lilith is trying to do.
However, note that Saturn Rx made a supportive sextile to BML on Sept 6th, so this is not as simple as the patriarchy repressing the magical woman. The rules can work for and stabilize undefined or transcendent expressions of female sexuality and independence – focusing that outlier energy in one direction (on a concrete issue) is key. Give her authority by using her power with serious conviction. The Mars opposition suggests fault-finding actions (Mars in Virgo can be prudish and judgemental) that challenge BML’s limitless growth. This is the moment to fall back on her rules – she can build up authority for herself if she takes herself seriously and works within the system for change, rather than letting her anger dominate.
Sacred sexuality and female energy with no boundaries may be threatening to some, but the Saturn sextile indicates that she has her own powerful traditions and rules. Consider if you feel threatened or empowered by her (she cannot be controlled or defined).

What is magic? Is it something entirely metaphysical, ethereal? Or is it just what happens sometimes when we’ve perfected the physical world enough to allow the human spirit to express itself?
