  • Mercury in Sagittarius trine Chiron RX in Aries (1 deg)

This aspect encourages you to talk about what hurts. Mercury in Sag’s optimism and broad perspectives can be used to integrate a wound or vulnerability. The difficulty is not insurmountable when you discuss it in the context of future growth (things will get better) or wisdom (you can learn from this).

Chiron is often associated with teaching; the hard-won wisdom you’ve gleaned from pain lets you help others. Sagittarius is also associated with teaching, so this is the perfect energy for giving or receiving enlightening messages.  

What new perspectives or future possibilities can you apply to a current (repeat) difficulty? Chiron RX in Aries is about returning to the battle that must be fought when you feel weak, or the pioneer who is an outcast/ scapegoat, yet again. What stories can you tell about your battle?

December 8th, 2019: Capricorn Energy (And A Sun/Neptune Square)

  • Sagittarius Sun square Neptune in Pisces (15 deg)

  • Venus in Capricorn sextile Neptune in Pisces (15 deg)

  • Jupiter in Capricorn square Chiron RX in Aries (1 deg)

  • Ceres in Capricorn conjunct the South Node (8 deg)

The Sun/Neptune square promises limitless faith and good things, but much of what is promised will be false. A square to Neptune is a crisis of truth and belief: the shimmer of possibility is an illusion. There could be questions about what you thought was true.

Venus in Capricorn’s harmonious aspect to Neptune can be a point of grounding and reality for the above. It’s not all false- there’s a seed of magic that can be developed via focus and maturity regarding what you love.

Jupiter in Capricorn’s structured opportunities can trigger moments of doubt or insecurity as it squares Chiron. The need to prove what you’re learning, teaching or growing can stir up some pain, so before you push further down this new path consider why it hurts. You don’t need to stop, but you can use this moment to learn more about an area of vulnerability. 

Ceres over the South Node draws your attention to an issue of mothering or nurturing from the past. Rules about care, loss or rebirth will be the focus- there could be a permanent ending that’s part of a larger cycle. Or, you may be reaping the results of previous attempts to nurture.

December 4th, 2019: First Quarter Square And Relationship Crisis

  • First Quarter Square between the Pisces Moon and Sagittarius Sun (11°)

  • Venus in Capricorn square Juno in Libra (10°)

  • Mercury in Scorpio trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (24°)

The First Quarter Square triggers a crisis between spirituality (Pisces) versus wisdom (Sag) or dreams versus truth. An established belief, piece of knowledge or religion will be challenged by what cannot be defined. Something will be undermining your faith, and it could be a lie, fantasy or energy that transcends everything you thought you knew. The questions that are raised will push you to take action- it’s time to step forward and defend your truth or make a change that aligns you with a new truth. 

Continuing the theme of crisis, Venus/Juno raises tension between authoritative expressions or love or values versus a harmonious partnership agreement. Authority, traditions or control will trigger an imbalance between two people. Consider how this tension factors into the above crisis of truth and belief.

But there is an easy aspect today-Mercury harmonizes with Black Moon Lilith, tapping into uncomfortable and taboo information about women’s sexuality that is somehow deemed “unacceptable.” Here is the undeniable and intense voice of truth- saying what needs to be said or exploring secret issues. Consider how the smooth flow of intense, authentic female energy (via words or ideas) can help you deal with the above crises.

This trine between Mercury and BML is the last of three. So you’re concluding an issue that began on October 17th.

December 3rd, 2019: Dig Deep

  • Mercury in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)

  • Venus in Capricorn sextile Mars in Scorpio (9 deg)

Mercury/Pluto indicates words with harmonious power. Mercury in Scorpio is already focused on what’s beneath the surface, and when you add Pluto (ruler of Scorpio) you get authentic information that slides into your awareness. Words make a quiet impact. 

Mercury/Pluto first made this sextile on Oct 19th at 20 deg, and then again on Nov 9th at 20 deg (when Mercury was RX). So this will be the conclusion of something that’s been brewing since October. 

Mars/Venus harmonizes actions with attraction- efforts that tap into the deepest motivations (and are focused, passionate, authentic) can net you something favourable. Dig deep and you can manifest formal expressions of love, money or values. The overall theme is commitment: this is a quiet aspect but the energy is profoundly serious. 

In general, today is excellent for confirming what you want while committing to undeniable truths.

December 2nd, 2019: Venus Conjunct South Node, Mars Trine the North Node

by  •

  • Venus conjunct the Capricorn South Node (8 deg)

  • Mars in Scorpio trine the Cancer North Node (8 deg)

Venus over the SN is a culmination or ending involving a relationship, money, self-esteem or values. What you want/love will be defined, and it could be something from the distant past. This is about a mature commitment to what’s desired, or a mature acceptance that something is concluding. 

In some cases, there could be a romantic connection with strong karmic energy; a meeting with someone from a past life with a sense of inevitability and instant seriousness.

Either way, it should be favourable because Mars is activating the North Node (path forward). So you’ve got intensive, passionate actions moving you forward. You’re not stuck (if you don’t want to be) and the key is “take action.” Efforts should flow forward easily, providing they are authentic. 

To sum up these aspects, consider what you can do with what you want/own and how you can develop your situation further. The North Node always develops South Node energies, rather than cancelling them out. So you’re looking at how tradition/rules can be progressed to something emotionally authentic and satisfying.

November 28th, 2019: All The Venus Issues

Anders Zorn

  • Capricorn Moon square Juno in Libra (8°)

  • Capricorn Moon conjunct the South Node (8°)

  • Juno in Libra square the Capricorn South Node/Cancer North Node (8°)

  • Mercury in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces (15°)

  • Mercury in Scorpio opposite Vesta RX in Taurus (15°)

  • Venus in Capricorn trine Uranus RX in Taurus (3°)

The Moon and Juno

Juno in Libra is about balanced relationship agreements. But when she makes a square aspect to the Nodes, something about this agreement is unbalanced and troublesome. South Node is the past or what is culminating, and North Node is what you are moving towards. So you may be stuck at a point where you and another disagree, or relationship rules/commitments (SN issues) feel unfair.

The Capricorn Moon uniting with the SN and squaring Juno could trigger a turning point in this situation. Note that the Moon rules the North Node, so the key is integrating past rules/traditions with a new awareness of needs and emotional expression. Until this integration happens the partnership agreement will remain stuck and crisis-ridden. Parental dynamics will be a major theme.

Mercury

Mercury triggers the last of three aspects to Vesta and Neptune. Due to Mercury’s previous RX, the opposition and trine first occurred from October 15-23rd. Back then, you were introduced to taboo, secret or intense words/ideas that challenged a focus (Vesta) on material security and habits. But the trine to Neptune encouraged that flow of information as you explored deeper levels.

These aspects reoccurred from November 10-13th, when Mercury was RX-more questions were asked or investigations burrowed beneath the surface.

Today, the issue that began in October is wrapping up. The challenge to a material focus or fixed routine is still there, but now there is a conclusion based on what you have learned. Deeper truths, or an understanding of psychological issues can help you move forward or have a compassionate conversation about money, fear of change or sacred boundaries.

The November 27th post about Neptune sextile Vesta is also connected to this: consider how an integration of the physical and spiritual can deepen your understanding of what is valuable to you.

Venus

Venus’ harmonious aspect to Uranus can help you deal with changes to relationships, values, security or self-esteem. You can incorporate those changes gradually, within an existing structure (Capricorn). You’re not breaking any rules about what you want or love, but you are making some changes. The definition of what’s considered valuable or attractive will shift.

Venus is the common energy in all of the above (Venus rules Libra and Taurus). So the overarching theme is addressing unbalanced relationships and a shift in values. Taurus is about subjective, “me first” Venus and Libra is about objective “what about you” Venus.

November 27, 2019: Venus Square Chiron & Neptune Direct

  • Venus in Capricorn square Chiron RX in Aries (1 °)

  • Neptune in Pisces stations direct (15°)

  • Neptune in Pisces sextile Vesta RX in Taurus (15°)

Venus

Venus/Chiron indicates a painful crisis involving the status or tradition of what you want/love. Relationship commitments, defined examples of what’s beautiful or self-esteem linked to status can trigger moments of tension. There may be insecurities about  lack of status or commitment. Perhaps traditional examples of female energy make you feel like an outsider because you don’t fit the mould. The authority that you want could be undermined by insecurities.

As always with hard aspects to Chiron, you can’t gloss over the unpleasantness. The best approach is to expect that Venus- themed situations (money, relationships, values) will be temporarily difficult. Accept the moment of discomfort and consider if there’s a message for you. How authentic is that status? Is it time to discard certain traditions, or is this a temporary blip? What is the reality of what you want? 

Most importantly, what does this say about your responsibilities regarding boundaries and defined values?

Neptune

It’s interesting that on the same day, Neptune moves forward. While Capricorn is about rules and reality, Neptune dissolves reality. Neptune direct is the current of magic, transcendence or impossibility that circumvents the rules. This is a subtle influence, but it does suggest that issues involving fantasy, compassion, deceit or truth will now move forward. Neptune is associated with deceit but the truthful flip side is always revealed in the end (sometimes resulting in relief and other times resulting in disillusionment). Neptune stationed RX on June 21st at 18°.

As Neptune moves forward it will make it harmonious sextile with Vesta. Devotion to physical resources, money or habits will be gently confirmed and adjusted. Watch for a subtle shift in the current regarding security matters that you’ve been focused on. This is the second of three sextiles between Neptune and Vesta:

  • Jul 30th, 2019

  • Nov 27th, 2019

  • Feb 8th, 2020

So you’re halfway through a process that began in July-an integration of the earthly and the spiritual, reality and dreams or self-preservation and sacrifice.
