  • Sun in Aquarius sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (18 deg)

  • Mercury in Aquarius sextile Mars in Aries (25 deg)

  • Uranus in Aries opposite Pallas in Libra (29 deg)

Sun/Jupiter delivers buoyant energy that encourages you to have faith in something unique (including yourself). It’s ok to stand out, be yourself or take a risk, and judgements should be almost non-existent. Aquarius is very open-minded and Jupiter (in positive aspect) is all about benevolence.

Mercury/Mars adds to the above with assertive but not pushy words. The harmony of the sextile adds Mars’ aggressiveness in a manageable way, encouraging outspoken information that is delivered in an acceptable manner. Combined with Sun/Jupiter, today’s influences favour exploration, the communication of fresh ideas standing up for yourself with easy confidence.

However, Uranus (ruler of Aquarius) opposite Pallas does suggest that liberating moves will trigger some imbalances. Pallas in Libra’s polite social strategies will be upended, or even abruptly abandoned. Not a deal-breaker, but consider if any relationship plans, compromises or solutions have outlived their usefulness.

Note that this opposition (a culmination) takes places at 29 degrees (the final degree). This strongly points to the end of a social issue – you may be liberated or surprised, but either way there’s no going back. If this makes you uneasy, know that Jupiter’s influence suggests that this is a good thing.

February 6th, 2019: Discordant Nurturing

by  • 

Mary Cassatt

Mary Cassatt

  • Moon in Pisces conjunct Vesta (2 deg)

  • Moon in Pisces sextile Venus in Capricorn (2 deg)

  • Moon in Pisces square Ceres in Sagittarius (3 deg)

The Moon emphasizes yesterday’s Venus/Vesta sextile:

“Venus in Capricorn is about strict and ambitious definitions for relationships, money or personal values. Vesta in Pisces focuses on transcendent or compassionate issues. When they harmonize, Vesta’s higher devotion loosens some of Venus’ rules – there can be more to what you want as judgements are released. “

Moon/Vesta suggests emotional devotion or focus on a specific issue that transcends reality. There’s a yearning for something higher. Venus adds a touch of practicality while keeping the energy calm and beautifully contained.

But the Moon/Ceres square suggests the above may be disrupted by discordant expressions of nurturing. Vague or spiritual needs are out of step with the belief about how care “should” be implemented. Although well-intentioned, Sag’s fiery enthusiasm can be too much for gentle Pisces. Nurturing may be too pushy.

Sag is about the belief of what’s true and right while Pisces simply “is.” If you’re attempting to nurture, consider what’s needed versus what you believe is best. If you’re the recipient of some pushy efforts, know that it’s ok to keep those boundaries in place.

Aquarius New Moon: Picture It

Picture It… You are on a veranda overlooking the sea. White billowy curtains blow in the sea breeze, framing a gorgeous seascape. In front of you, palms sway on a white sand beach as you drink in the glimmering emerald-turquoise water with your eyes. Walking over to a divan, you feel the cool marble floor beneath […]
