  • Saturn Rx conjunct the Capricorn South Node (20 deg)

Yesterday’s Saturn Rx underlines an ending as it meets up with the South Node. This is a powerful indicator of results from past rules, responsibilities or commitments.

A major ending or turning point is in play, but it will happen slowly. Saturn will conjoin the South Node two more times: on July 4th and September 28th. What’s crystalizing now is the first step in a process.

Some endings take more time because they have to be done correctly and thoroughly. You may need to attend to certain responsibilities before you say goodbye, or you may have to deal with rules/authority that you’ve been ignoring. Maturity is key – accept what’s happening, take care of what’s yours and say “No” to what’s no longer yours.

In some cases, you may be reconnecting with someone who has authority or with whom you feel responsible for. The energy will be heavy and unavoidable.

The door is slowly swinging shut and the clock is running down – the time has arrived to get it done and move on. Yes, you have a few months to work through it, but it needs to start now. This is not something you can rush.

April 29th, 2019: Saturn Retrograde

  • Waning Sextile between the Pisces Moon and Taurus Sun (9 deg)

  • Saturn stations retrograde in Capricorn (20 deg)

Waning Sextile

As the Moon’s light fades and we approach a Taurus New Moon next month, the sextile gently enables a transition by dissolving old habits/routines and leaving room for something new. This part of the Moon’s phase is never demanding- there’s a gentle nudge in the right direction, but you can easily ignore it.

Consider what feels like it’s naturally fading, and let it go. Watch for new, solid opportunities on the horizon that involve a way to make dreams/hints a reality.

Saturn

Saturn Rx can mean a few things:

  • the revision of a rule

  • the return to previous limit

  • emphasis on a specific responsibility or tradition

  • a temporary loosening of restrictions

You’ll quickly know what scenario applies to you (you may know already). A revision or return means unfinished business that must be completed. If you feel like you’re being dragged back against your will, there’s a reason it’s happening- you can’t avoid it so you might as well do the work. What needs to end, permanently? What responsibilities must you accept or say “No” to? What boundaries need to be strengthened?

It’s interesting that this is happening on the same day as the Waxing Sextile, because it underlines a specific area of that transition. Saturn Rx can define what the Waxing Sextile is hinting at.

A temporary loosening can be used to prepare yourself for the pressures that will reoccur in the future. Don’t slack off.

Saturn’s Rx will cover 20 to 13 deg Capricorn, stationing direct on September 18th, 2019 at 13 deg.

April 28th, 2019: The Agreement

by  •

  • Chiron in Aries square Juno in Cancer (3 deg)

Fresh wounds are triggered by a partnership agreement. Issues around neediness, the desire to protect or mother/child dynamics can result in a new and painful crisis. Vulnerability will be a key theme – feeling more vulnerable together or feeling like safety is being compromised. Old family issues can be seen in a new light.

You have the power to say “No” or indicate what you’re not comfortable with, in this agreement. Family contracts can be challenged if they make you feel unsafe.

Every dance with Chiron is a chance to confront what hurts. Especially in Aries (the warrior sign) you are not meant to sweep this under the rug. The healing involves increased empathy but the wound itself never goes away. You gain strength when you have the courage to confront what hurts.

April 27th, 2019: Questionable Motivations

  • Mars in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces (17 deg)

  • Mercury in Aries opposite Pallas Rx in Libra (14 deg)

Mars/Neptune

Mars/Neptune is confused or undermining actions. Mars in Gemini can jump between different choices, but then Neptune blurs the details and the choices slide in and out of focus. What you do may be questionable, deceptive or scattered (multiple starts that fizzle out).

Use caution with all actions and initiatives – have a backup plan and leave yourself extra time to compensate for difficulty in focusing. If you have any doubts about the integrity of what you’re doing (or what they’re doing) listen to those doubts. This aspect can indicate the stealthy side-step or endless distractions.

Mercury/Pallas

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, and Mercury is in Mars-ruled Aries. The assertive comment is too blunt for polite social strategies (Pallas in Libra) so there may be disagreements. But that assertiveness could be misguided. Go back to the primary motivations (Mars) for the disagreement- are they muddled or is there a deceptive side?

April 26th, 2019: Time For A Change

  • 3rd Quarter Square between the Aquarius Moon and Taurus Sun (6 deg)

  • Mercury in Aries trine Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (13 deg)

  • Uranus in Taurus sextile Juno in Cancer (2 deg)

3rd Quarter Square

The crisis between what’s new and what’s established can push you to question what you want. Current definitions of security may be getting stale – something is urging you to step back and look at what you have in a different light. This process can feel uncomfortable, because you may not want to question what’s worked so far. But it’s time to shake things up and if you’re being honest you’ll admit that what’s in front of you feels a bit stifling.

Mercury/Ceres

Mercury in Aries is not usually considered nurturing, but this aspect suggests bold words can fuel the care and feeding of an adventure or area of learning. Fresh ideas and assertive speech will support what you’re exploring. Or, maybe you’re asserting your intentions to look after someone. Nurturing in this context may require courage, as you venture into a new area.

Uranus/Juno

Juno in Cancer is the “safe” agreement- a partnership contract that features protection, comfort and parental roles. But what’s safe needs to change a bit and the sextile to Uranus suggests a gentle hint of movement into a new area. The relationship itself may encompass some new facets that still work with the original commitment. Or, there may be an agreement to look after each other in a new way that’s still stable. Watch for an emerging definition of resources.
