Asia Argento and the Black Moon Lilith
http://gty.im/960118658 I’ve been writing quite a bit about the Black Moon Lilith and its relevance to the Me Too movement and sexual abuse. The Black Moon Lilith is an interesting astrological symbol – not a planet or an asteroid (there IS a Lilith asteroid but that is a different matter entirely), the BML is […]

Mercury’s Transit of Virgo
Mercury enters Virgo on September 5th. Mercury rules this sign, so details, examinations and thinking/talking about solutions will dominate.
Here is the ultimate analyzer – Mercury in Virgo misses nothing. Helpful critiques (whether people want to hear them or not) are a theme, along with the identification of errors and solutions. Virgo is an Earth sign, so all information is practical and immediately applicable, but details are also refined. Mercury in Virgo is always searching for the best, the most effective, the cleanest.
This can be a dry, somewhat negative transit for Mercury because the downside of things is noticed first. Mercury in Virgo can search for the worst before looking for the best. Ideally, solutions come next, but the distorted version of this energy is constant criticisms and worrying. Picking at what’s wrong until it bleeds. And then worrying about the bleeding.
This is the transit to find the best solutions. Search and identify, then figure out how you can make it better – don’t get stuck in the gerbil wheel of endless mini crises.
Here are the aspects Mercury in Virgo will make:
- Sept 6th: inconjunct to Chiron Rx in Aries (0 deg)
- Sept 6th: conjunct Pallas (1 deg)
- Sept 7th: trine Uranus Rx in Taurus and Saturn in Capricorn (2 deg)
- Sept 7th: inconjunct Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (3 deg)
- Sept 13th: opposite Neptune rx in Pisces (14 deg)
- Sept 15th: trine Pluto Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)
- Sept 16th: sextile Jupiter in Scorpio (19 deg)
- Sept 20th: conjunct the Sun (28 deg)
- Sept 21st: trine Juno in Taurus (28 deg)
- Sept 21st: Libra ingress

September 5th, 2018: Waning Sextile and a Sticky Inconjunct

- Waning Sextile between the Cancer Moon and Virgo Sun (12 deg)
- Mercury in Leo inconjunct Mars in Capricorn (29 deg)
The Waning Sextile promises an opportunity. It will be quiet – a chance to upgrade and refine raw needs via facts. A chance to transition towards a new goal that’s good for you. And, you won’t have to step outside your comfort zone to do this. The transition will be small but effective.
But you’ll have to pay attention if you want to work with this. It will be so quiet that you might miss it and just stick with the old.
Adding a bit of tension, we have an inconjunct between Mercury and Mars in the last degrees of their respective signs. Big words are out of synch with disciplined actions. Actions are undermined by big words. It will be difficult to align thoughts with intent, but the activation of final degrees (and Mercury’s Virgo ingress later today) suggests this will be a brief but pointed issue. Something is being wrapped up (perhaps a project that was delayed during Mars’ retrograde). The final step could be sticky as you struggle to adjust words with motivation.
The secret to an inconjunct? Moderate both sides but keep them active. So you want to maintain that discipline and ambition, but ease off on the hammer. You want to maintain the creativity and confidence of what you’re saying, but tone down the grandiose energy.

In the Key of Virgo: Beyoncé
It’s easy to see that Beyoncé must have a powerhouse of planets in the sign of partnership — Libra — after all she is one half (arguably the more glamorous half) of the most powerful marriage in showbiz. She was born on this day, September 4, in 1981 Indeed, Beyoncé has Venus and Pluto in Libra Rising. No wonder she’s famous for her powerful sexual charisma, and her straight-up good looks. Not only that, she has Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn in Libra too — no wonder she likes to write about relationships — for her they are endlessly complex and […]

Astrology of Now: “Be here, now!”
When you find a planet or asteroid at 0° in a person’s chart, it’s likely to be significant. It may contain a great deal of the pure energy of that sign, and the individual may need to manifest that during his or her lifetime. Since today, Pallas Athena, the asteroid of wisdom is at 0° Virgo, I was curious to see who has this interesting combination of sign and asteroid at that critical degree — after all both Virgo and Pallas are associated with craft. I love it when sometimes astrology is so clear, and so visual. This is a […]
