  • Mercury in Aquarius inconjunct Vesta Rx in Cancer: 20 degrees
  • Mercury in Aquarius sextile Uranus in Aries: 21 degrees

Mercury is supported by Uranus, Aquarius’ ruler. Words and thoughts have a sparkling edge. Detachment allows you to make some unusual leaps. The ease of the sextile means “unusual” is palatable. Nothing too disruptive.

The past needs to be adjusted to meet the future – stop clinging, start thinking. But don’t deny what you’re feeling (it’s valid). Just take one step back from what you’re focused on, and consider an alternative approach. Bring new life to what you’ve been nurturing.

Venus in Aries: Anish Kapoor

Continuing the series on artists with Venus in Aries. The picture tells the story really. Anish Kapoor has Venus at 0° Aries — the Ur degree, the alpha … the very beginning of the whole Zodiac. And well, is here is a great big Mons Venus in Aries own colour. Kapoor loves red. It’s nice that he has North Node in Capricorn — a sign which often seems to feature in sculptor’s charts. One suspects his relationship with India must be pretty complex (but a source of inspiration) with Uranus on the South Node. It’s interesting that he manages to be extremely […]
