Libra New Moon, October 19 2017: Finding balance in the midst of chaos

(See the end of the post for the geeky astrological details) The New Moon is the darkest time of the lunar cycle – the time when there is no lunar light. The Sun and Moon are in exact alignment in the sky, at the same degree, and the lunar light is obscured by the Sun. […]

Progressions One: Autumn Session Begins in October

  Progressions One Begins in October/early November: I am going to be honest with you.  I don’t know how any astrologer can consciously give counsel without using the progressed chart.  Without knowledge of progressions, the progressed chart may be a bit of a mystery.  If I was born with my Ascendant in Leo, how can it […]

October 18th, 2017: Battle For The Truth, Featuring Lilith

  • Mercury in Scorpio conjunct Jupiter: 1 degree
  • Mars in Virgo square Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius: 27 degrees

Mercury/Jupiter opens the Scorpio can of worms. Secrets and frighteningly intimate facts expand to the point where they cannot be ignored. But Jupiter is also about intuition and faith. So the upside is a rare opportunity to unite logic with intuition, and power ahead based on the confidence that you’ve got it right. And you probably do have it right, if you’re giving voice to your intuition. This energy can also help you mine hidden strategies and resources – you may have more than you think.

Mars’ male energy challenges Lilith’s mouthy outsider in a battle of sexual power. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, and Virgo is ruled by Mercury, so this square is directly tied into the Mercury/Jupiter conjunction. Disruptive female energy is given a voice and Jupiter in Scorpio suggests more stories will rise from the depths. As I wrote in this post, Lilith in Sag has a crusade. 

In general terms, the square between Virgo and Sag represents the tension between details and the big story. Also, the truth (Sagittarius) about what’s wrong (Virgo). Facts will be disputed, and the battle may be about details that seem insignificant. If you’re caught up in a battle, know that little inaccuracies and picky details are not inconsequential. Honour your facts. And don’t allow yourself to be intimidated (Mars) by someone who uses guilt and shame (Virgo) as a weapon (Mars).

The above works both ways. If you want to speak, speak your truth. If you don’t want to speak, that’s your right as well.
