This article has been updated from an earlier post. Last week I saw a client (let’s call her Sylvia) whose birthchart demonstrates the power of Pluto. Sylvia’s Sun is in the hard-working sign of Capricorn: Capricorns typically have a difficult life when they’re young but because they’re such hard workers (ruled by the Celestial Taskmaster himself, […]

Waxing Trine between the Libra Moon and Gemini Sun (21 deg)
Venus in Gemini opposite Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (4 deg)
Venus in Gemini square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (4 deg)
Mars in Cancer conjunct the North Node (17 deg)
The Waxing Trine allows you to blend relationship prompts with choices and new information. Excellent for socializing, sharing with others and making the natural choice regarding social interactions. The exchange of information should move effortlessly and in a balanced way.
The Mars/North Node conjunction adds to the encouragement, as actions based on needs and emotions carry you forward. Stepping away from the past and into an area that’s satisfying and speaks to you on a gut level is emphasized – do not be afraid to do what feels right even if you can’t articulate it.
However, continuing the story from yesterday’s Ceres/BML square, we see Venus in Gemini opposing Ceres and squaring Lilith. Different facets of female energy are at odds – the mother (Ceres) the taboo woman (BML) and the more familiar/typical expression of femininity (Venus). Choices about relationships and/or expressing your female identity are in flux. None of the choices will be easy, as they oppose an area of nurturing and trigger a crisis around undermining or “unacceptable” female sexual energy. Maybe two women or two sides yourself will be involved (Gemini means duality).
And yet, the choices must be (carefully) explored and the options weighed. Venus rules the Libra Moon, so the Waxing Trine can help with this. Choose what comes naturally and go in the direction that seems to be unfolding most easily. You won’t be able to make everyone happy, but that’s not what this is about.
At the same time, keep in mind that Mars over the North Node means you are moving forward. You’re doing it differently this time. Break those old habits.

For some of you this may be parsing things a little too finely, but I’d like to point out that …
Some thoughts on Venus, recorded on a sunny day in my garden when the poppies and roses vying for attention.

Ceres Rx in Sagittarius square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (4 deg)
Ceres is the Great Mother (nurturing) and BML is the dangerous lady/witch/other woman/outcast. When the two form a square, there can be tension between nurturing in an expansive (Sagittarius) way versus sliding (Pisces) around the ideals of nurturing with “taboo” expressions of female sexuality or the exploration of a dream/fantasy that releases you from nurturing.
Lilith is not a typical mother. In her myth, she gave birth to demon children so she sometimes symbolizes a thwarted desire to have children, or the complete rejection of motherhood. She is often associated with abortion and miscarriage. So in today’s aspect, we have Ceres Rx in Sag as the fiery, hopeful area of growth (Rx means you’re revisiting this issue) and BML in Pisces as the cold undercurrent that releases you.
These tensions can play out in various ways, and the crisis of the square (plus Ceres’ Rx status) draws your attention to this. Is there a nurturing/mothering ideal that needs to be released or circumvented? Is your immersion in a fantasy/dangerous attraction undermining an area of growth? Are you escaping or avoiding?
