  • Mercury re-enters Leo (3:45 PM EDT)

  • Jupiter stations direct in Sagittarius (14 deg)

  • Uranus stations Rx in Taurus (6 deg)

If you’ve been waiting for the moment to pick up where you left off, this is it.

After its Rx into Cancer, Mercury returns to Leo. This can reactivate issues from June 26th (Mercury’s first ingress) but now you can move ahead with the bold plans, public words or creative idea. What was left hanging when Mercury stationed Rx will be completed.

See this link for the complete of dates and degrees.

And Jupiter stations direct, continuing the forward momentum. Expansion, exploration, growth or rewards that were put on hold when Jupiter stationed Rx (April 10th) will continue. For some, this means the time out is over. For others, a last chance to pursue a promise/ opportunity or learn as much as they possibly can (Jupiter will exit Sag for Capricorn on Dec 2nd).

However, Uranus will station Rx, which indicates delays in or a concentrated focus of the massive upgrade to resources and habits. The current is still flowing forward (with Jupiter and Mercury) but new sources of income, new values or habits are ready to be reviewed before the change continues. Nonetheless, this is not an excuse to keep waiting.

Uranus Rx will take you back to 2 deg Taurus, where it will station direct on Jan 2nd, 2020. This means if you have anything from 2 to 6 deg of the Fixed or Earth signs, get ready for a significant repeat hit of Uranus. 2 to 6 deg of the Water signs will also get a repeat hit, but not as noticeably.

Wondering how Uranus’ transit of Taurus might apply to you? I’ve written a 30-page ebook that features descriptions of this transit by house, as well as an intro that lays out all the dates and degrees.  Click here to purchase and download.

You must have have an accurate time of birth to know what house in your chart Uranus is moving through.

August 10th, 2019: Hope With Caution

  • Waxing Trine between the Sagittarius Moon and Leo Sun (17 deg)

  • Sagittarius Moon square Neptune Rx in Pisces (18 deg)

  • Leo Sun inconjunct Neptune Rx in Pisces (18 deg)

The Waxing Trine promises easy growth of idealism and confidence. There can be an effortless slide towards what’s new and exotic (Sag), with the promise of fun and drama (Leo). The more you learn (Sag) the brighter you’ll shine (Leo). However, the hard aspects to Neptune present a note of caution: the dissolution of limits can create false horizons and questionable wisdom. You may throw yourself into something that undermines your confidence and leads you down the wrong path. You may be proud of what you know or what you’re teaching, and rightly so. But some of that knowledge must be questioned.

Make an effort to discern truth from fabrication. The Sag ideal distorted by the square to Neptune is a crisis between belief versus illusion, wisdom versus wishes – you may want to believe in something so badly that you ignore the parts of the story that don’t add up. The inconjunct to the Leo Sun is a reminder that pride must be tempered with the awareness that there’s something more than your pride. It’s a tricky mix – you don’t want to be a victim but it’s not all about your personal accomplishments.

Consider what Neptune represents: what’s greater than your pride? Look at where the lines of the story are blurred.

August 9th, 2019: Make The Reality Work For You

  • Venus in Leo inconjunct Saturn Rx in Capricorn (15 deg)

  • Pluto Rx in Capricorn trine Vesta in Taurus (21 deg)

Venus/Saturn adds a bit of grit to the Venus/Jupiter trine. There are certain rules or limits which cannot be ignored, and they’ll cast a shadow over what you want. You may not get everything you desire, or there will be moments when you feel less than beautiful/worthy. Although the overall vibe is bright, bountiful and beautiful, Saturn is there to remind you of a specific reality. As you bump up against that limit, acknowledge it but don’t allow it to put out your fire.

Pluto/Vesta is empowered focus on resources/security, or empowering yourself by devoting your energies to what’s essential. There can be a fixation on physical matters, and the harmony of the trine encourages you to transform an existing situation by giving it your full attention. There’s great manifestation potential here, and the key is Pluto Rx’s concentrated deconstruction and excavation of current structures. Dig deeper, redefine the rules and use this to strengthen your material security or physical stamina.

This connects back to Venus/Saturn, as Saturn rules Capricorn and Venus rules Taurus. There’s a clue on how to handle the Saturn inconjunct – use the current realities and enforced focus to your advantage.

August 8th, 2019: Venus in Leo Trine Jupiter Rx

  • Venus in Leo trine Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (14 deg)

This aspect can attract more (Jupiter) of what you want (Venus). Venus in Leo is bold, entitled, passionate and dramatic. Brilliant swathes of creativity or romance, staged to impress. Jupiter expands this through a harmonious connection- a chance to take it further and celebrate.

This energy can be indulgent, as the trine indicates ease: you can attract without trying, just by being there. The romantic stakes are high and euphoric- confidence, risk and optimism make a potent combo.

You can’t really go wrong with this, but you can overdo it if you push things. Meaning, you can spend too much, display too much or expect too much, although in the moment it will feel really good. It will feel ideal, which is the Jupiter keyword. Jupiter is Rx but this does not dampen the flame. If anything, it means you’re getting a second chance at a missed opportunity or abundance/expansion is concentrated in one area. It’s helpful to be aware of your limits, especially since Venus is applying to an inconjunct with Saturn Rx, exact on August 9th.

But overall, if you want it and you’re ready to step out of the shadows, you can probably attract it (or entice others). Just remember that what seems limitless isn’t quite.

August 7th, 2019: First Quarter Square and the Shadow Behind the Shine

  • 1st Quarter Square between the Scorpio Moon and Leo Sun (14 deg)

  • Sun in Leo trine Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (14 deg)

  • Sun in Leo inconjunct Saturn Rx in Capricorn (15 deg)

  • Scorpio Moon sextile Saturn Rx in Capricorn (15 deg)

The First Quarter Square triggers a crisis between depth and shine, dark and light. The Leo Sun (amped up by Jupiter) represents a showy, optimistic situation. It’s loud and proud, bold and beautiful. But the Scorpio Moon brings a darker undertone of something you don’t want to acknowledge – the shadow behind the shine. And yet, this darkness is necessary for you to fully understand the brightness. There’s more than meets the eye – shadow work to be done. In order to enhance what you’re proud of, you need to dig deeper.

The Sun’s inconjunct to Saturn emphasizes this through inconvenient limits, rules or authority. Watch for some brakes on your ego – someone with more power may tell you what’s not possible. As unpleasant as this is, the Moon’s supportive sextile to Saturn reminds you that these limits can be stabilizing. Really dig into the area around those boundaries. There can be deeper, richer resources in these narrow but immovable veins.

Limits create focus which creates concentrated energy; mine the restrictions for enhanced power.

August 5th, 2019: Social Sparkle With An Undercurrent of Lilith

  • Waxing Sextile between the Libra Moon and Leo Sun (12 deg)

  • Venus in Leo inconjunct Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (10 deg)

The Waxing Sextile presents an opportunity. The Leo energy of subjective pride and “me first” attention blends with Libra’s objective “you first” vibe, for a nicely balanced social sparkle – others will appreciate what you’ve got going on, or you can celebrate in a way that includes everyone. This aspect is fun, a bit flirtatious and encouraging.

But Venus (ruler of Libra) makes an awkward inconjunct to BML, so there will be a spot of tension around taboo expressions of female sexuality or power. Venus in Leo is the public, “acceptable” display of female energy while BML in Pisces is the undercurrent of the witch/other woman/outsider. Lilith must be acknowledged, but somehow her energy must be balanced with what’s public (without allowing her secrets to undermine what you’re proud of). Think of her as the darker thread that runs through this bright energy.

  • Mars in Leo conjunct Juno (20 deg)

Passion and motivation fuel a relationship agreement. Commitment is based on pride in the partnership; there may be an agreement to act as one in order to succeed, gain attention or celebrate. A commitment can be based on the courage to stand at the centre of things and boldly declare yourselves.

This energy is about actively creating a union, or stepping out publicly and with loyalty. You’re more powerful as a united front.
