  • Sun in Libra opposite Chiron Rx in Aries (0 deg)

  • Mercury in Libra square Saturn in Capricorn (2 deg)

  • Mercury in Libra trine Mars in Aquarius (3 deg)

Sun/Chiron illuminates a sore spot or an area requiring unusual courage. You may be reluctant to step up because it’s socially unacceptable. You may want to avoid the issue, or the issue may be projected (it’s not really about you). But Chiron in Aries demands a confrontation. This will be a continuation of yesterday’s Mercury/Chiron opposition.

Speaking of Mercury, the square to Saturn suggests excruciating politeness. Mercury square Saturn can manifest as stiff, halting words. And when Libra is added there is a fear of saying something that’s not acceptable. This will probably be related to the Chiron opposition- if you do the wrong thing, it might hurt. There will be an imbalance between courage and social harmony. Saturn’s rules can’t be broken, but something still needs to be confronted. Libra is about taking that impossible mix and somehow finding the middle ground.

Not great for spontaneous ideas, although the trine to Mars can present an outlet, if you’re paying attention. Watch for a less obvious but still significant way to get your point across. Mars trine Mercury is about words with an easy flow of passion and force, although the shadow of Saturn will clamp down on some of that. Nonetheless, you can still speak out as long as certain rules are respected.

All of the above aspects are part of the September 24th Full Moon, and can be considered advance influences.

  • Mercury Rx in Leo square Juno in Taurus: 16 deg
  • Mercury Rx in Leo conjunct Pallas: 16 deg
  • Mercury Rx in Leo inconjunct Neptune Rx in Pisces: 15 deg
  • Venus in Libra inconjunct Uranus Rx in Taurus: 2 deg
  • Venus in Libra square Saturn Rx in Capricorn: 3 deg

Mercury

Aspects to Mercury continue yesterday’s influences involving the Sun and Pallas, but Mercury suggests specific details or a messenger. Mercury Rx/Pallas combines intellect and communication with a strategy or pattern, enabling you to put it into words (albeit words that are being reviewed). However, Mercury Rx/Juno is about revisiting the details of a relationship disagreement, and Mercury Rx/Neptune Rx can be about revisiting a specific fact that’s false or confusing. So putting it into words will only be the first step – you’ll have to navigate other difficulties. 

If Mercury manifests as the messenger, watch for a person who triggers the above. In all cases, you’re being asked to look more closely at the details, or ask questions (about the agreement or strategy). 

Note that Pallas and Juno will make an exact square on August 11th, so conflict around relationship strategies will continue until then. 

Venus

Venus/Uranus hi-lights the disconnect between necessary change versus the desire for harmony. There can be an avoidance of what needs to change (or be set free) or an abrupt development that triggers an extreme imbalance. Venus rules Taurus and Libra, but these signs make an inconjunct with each other- Libra is about relating and Taurus is about self-preservation. These issues will collide, and the trick is to honour both sides. 

The square to Saturn will not make that easy, but at the same time, Saturn will cut out all the non-essentials. You will probably run into a hard limit around what you want, especially regarding a relationship or what you’re trying to attract. So you won’t get distracted, because certain things will simply not be available to you. Focus on what’s left.

Along with Uranus, this can feel upsetting as you’re confronted with change while being restricted. You may feel cornered or rejected. Accept the limits and the change, then do your best to find the balance within that situation. Or, you can say “F**k it” and refuse to play ball. But it’s always helpful to try and work with the energy of the sign that’s being activated.

And now you see why Venus in Libra is not an easy energy to master. I’m not talking about being a doormat or glossing over all the problems. The real task here is to honestly find the balance between you and them. Honour yourself and the other, in whatever situation unfolds. Respect your wants while playing by Saturn’s rules and getting with Uranus’ program.

Impossible? Nope. Libra is being activated because balance is possible. But it won’t be easy.
