  • Leo Sun trine Ceres in Sagittarius (0 deg)

  • Saturn Rx in Capricorn trine Vesta in Taurus (16 deg)

Ceres in Sag is the optimistic nurturing of something new – an idealistic drive for freedom that is encouraged. Harmonizing with the Sun suggests purpose and pride in this goal. Putting your faith in the growth of adventure, learning or exploration. Having the freedom to express yourself (or encouraging someone to express themselves). Ceres is primarily associated with mother’s nurturing, food and the cycle of life/loss, but this aspect would seem to indicate the growth portion of the cycle.

Saturn/Vesta is grounded focus on what’s real. Money, resources, values and self-esteem can be confirmed and quietly built through work and maturity. Saturn and Vesta indicate focus, and when they combine there is an ultimate fixation on one area. This is about taking your security seriously.

We have two different but complimentary versions of growth. Ceres in Sag is about possibilities while Vesta in Taurus is what you have to work with. Both can increase with confidence (Sun in Leo) and discipline (Saturn).

July 21st, 2019: Dark Truths

  • Sun conjunct Mercury Rx in Cancer (28 deg)

  • Venus in Cancer opposite Pluto Rx in Capricorn (21 deg)

Watch for some uncomfortable truths to be revealed. Sun/Mercury is the midpoint of the Mercury’s Rx, so emotional facts/info should be illuminated. You may gain an understanding of family issues/issues from the past. Or, the return to a past conversation can reveal a truth that you feel and understand.

Venus/Pluto adds an intense conclusion to the above. Pluto unearths dark compulsions, fears, obsessions or desires that lie behind Venus’ money, relationship or self-esteem issues. There can also be a profound “death” in one of these situations. The greater the attraction (or the more powerful the ending) the greater the transformation potential. Venus in Cancer wants safety and comfort, but Pluto insists on pushing things outside the comfort zone.

Oppositions also suggest projection, so these aspects can reveal some interesting facts about what you think you want – often, someone embodies what you need to develop within yourself, and your all-consuming obsession with them is simply a reflection of this.

It may feel as if what you want or have is wrapped up in primal, childhood dynamics. Power/domination can create unbalanced relationships with one partner as parent and the other as child. The Sun/Mercury conjunction will reveal a truth about these dynamics, so keep your eyes open.

July 20th, 2019: Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius Inconjunct Vesta

  • Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius inconjunct Vesta in Taurus (15 deg)

Expansion (Jupiter) must be adjusted with the focus on security (Vesta in Taurus). The overall goal is sustainable growth, but this incompatible aspect can trigger an exaggerated preoccupation with more money/security (especially since Jupiter is Rx, which means growth is concentrated in one area). The result can be tunnel vision that denies growth.

Vesta’s devotion to safety/habits and Jupiter’s ideals (about exploration) are at odds with one another, so the key is to make small adjustments to both until they are compatible. You may need to broaden your focus on security just a bit while slightly decreasing the push for expansion.

In other words, add something new to what you have but do it gradually.

July 19th, 2019: Step Back

  • Waning Inconjunct between the Aquarius Moon and Cancer Sun (26 deg)

  • Mercury Rx re-enters Cancer (3:06 AM EDT)

The Waning Inconjunct is a reminder that after the up close and personal Full Moon eclipse (on the 16th) it’s time to detach somewhat from those results. You may want to cling to the intensity, even if the results were not in your favour. You may want to wallow or obsess. Obviously you can’t ignore those results, but if you take one step back you’ll see there’s more going on. Perhaps you need to reclaim your independence, your freedom, your individuality. Looking away will feel unnatural, but it’s necessary.

Mercury Rx’s return to Cancer adds another layer to the above. Yes, Cancer is a personal sign, but Mercury Rx is about looking/asking again. So you’re taking a closer look at the subjective issue – you’re applying logic, reasoning, intellect. You’re not just allowing the feelings to wash over you: you’re asking “Why?”

The Waning Inconjunct will give you the needed distance to view those personal/family issues in a new light.

July 18th, 2019: Venus Trine Neptune, Mercury Rx Trine Ceres

  • Venus in Cancer trine Neptune Rx in Pisces (18 deg)

  • Mercury Rx in Leo trine Ceres in Sagittarius (0 deg)

The trine from Neptune takes the edge off the Venus/Saturn opposition. After the restrictions comes a gentle release and increase in acceptance, grace or relief. Neptune expands where Saturn restricted and opens up possibilities that exist to the side of Saturn’s rules. If the Saturn opposition brought a commitment or official result, Neptune can enhance the good stuff.

Mercury makes the second of three trines to Ceres, asking you to have faith in what you’re hearing or saying. The first trine occurred on June 29th when Ceres was Rx, and now that Mercury is Rx (and Ceres is direct) you may be asking again or reconsidering what you’ve learned, involving an area of nurturing and exploration. Keep honing your message, because it can grow into something bigger.
