Venus in Leo trine Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (14 deg)
This aspect can attract more (Jupiter) of what you want (Venus). Venus in Leo is bold, entitled, passionate and dramatic. Brilliant swathes of creativity or romance, staged to impress. Jupiter expands this through a harmonious connection- a chance to take it further and celebrate.
This energy can be indulgent, as the trine indicates ease: you can attract without trying, just by being there. The romantic stakes are high and euphoric- confidence, risk and optimism make a potent combo.
You can’t really go wrong with this, but you can overdo it if you push things. Meaning, you can spend too much, display too much or expect too much, although in the moment it will feel really good. It will feel ideal, which is the Jupiter keyword. Jupiter is Rx but this does not dampen the flame. If anything, it means you’re getting a second chance at a missed opportunity or abundance/expansion is concentrated in one area. It’s helpful to be aware of your limits, especially since Venus is applying to an inconjunct with Saturn Rx, exact on August 9th.
But overall, if you want it and you’re ready to step out of the shadows, you can probably attract it (or entice others). Just remember that what seems limitless isn’t quite.
I’ve been thinking about the American writer Toni Morrison today, the day after she died, and remembering her book Beloved, which won her the Pulitzer Prize, and is considered by most critics to be her masterpiece. Beloved tells the story — in densely poetic language and imagery — of a haunting. But the ghost is a toddler’s, the ghost of a child murdered by her mother so that she cannot be taken into slavery. These are Sethe, the mother’s thoughts, as she kills her child, named only Beloved, to save her. “And if she thought anything, it was No. No. […]

1st Quarter Square between the Scorpio Moon and Leo Sun (14 deg)
Sun in Leo trine Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (14 deg)
Sun in Leo inconjunct Saturn Rx in Capricorn (15 deg)
Scorpio Moon sextile Saturn Rx in Capricorn (15 deg)
The First Quarter Square triggers a crisis between depth and shine, dark and light. The Leo Sun (amped up by Jupiter) represents a showy, optimistic situation. It’s loud and proud, bold and beautiful. But the Scorpio Moon brings a darker undertone of something you don’t want to acknowledge – the shadow behind the shine. And yet, this darkness is necessary for you to fully understand the brightness. There’s more than meets the eye – shadow work to be done. In order to enhance what you’re proud of, you need to dig deeper.
The Sun’s inconjunct to Saturn emphasizes this through inconvenient limits, rules or authority. Watch for some brakes on your ego – someone with more power may tell you what’s not possible. As unpleasant as this is, the Moon’s supportive sextile to Saturn reminds you that these limits can be stabilizing. Really dig into the area around those boundaries. There can be deeper, richer resources in these narrow but immovable veins.
Limits create focus which creates concentrated energy; mine the restrictions for enhanced power.
