November 3rd, 2017: Calm Release
- Venus in Libra sextile Saturn in Sagittarius: 24 deg
- Venus in Libra inconjunct Chiron Rx in Pisces: 24 deg
- Sun in Scorpio trine Neptune Rx in Pisces: 11 deg
Venus is the dominant energy today. Her sextile with Saturn suggests quiet developments in money, relationship and self-esteem matters. Nothing flashy, just a reminder to calmly approach Venus issues. Be disciplined (Saturn) about balancing (Libra) your wants. Be an adult (Saturn) about this.
Venus/Chiron may present a painful reminder. Developments could trigger an insecurity – you feel unloved, unattractive, etc. This is where Saturn comes in. When you experience that brief moment of social embarrassment, or you feel “unacceptable” Saturn’s steady hand will urge you to look at the bigger picture (Sagittarius). There’s more going on than your awkward moment.
Sun/Neptune encourages you to immerse yourself in something deeper. Yes, your Venus issue is important, but there’s also a reservoir of compassion, creativity or peace. And you can only access it if you take one step back from the surface stuff (how you look/how they look/how well you’re liked). If you find yourself dwelling excessively on a relationship/self-esteem problem, release your concerns about appearance and open yourself up to what lies beneath (the deeper truth, even if it’s ugly). Accept what you have and release the yearning for what you don’t have.
Any combination of Neptune and the Sun transcends the ego. Add in Scorpio, and you have the potential to empower yourself by letting go of grasping, controlling, compulsive behaviour. Stop trying to influence others, and see what happens.
November 2nd, 2017: Painful Limits

Saturn in Sag makes the last of three squares to Chiron. Since December 28th, 2016 and April 30th, 2017, Saturn has urged you to confront the wound with maturity. Limits are triggering vulnerabilities, but Saturn always demands that you do the work. And Chiron is about acknowledging what hurts.
This is not an aspect of magical healing. Chiron’s “Wounded Healer” moniker does not indicate that the wound vanishes, only that you learn to live with it. And in this case, part of your task may involve accepting limits. This is what you must work with, no matter how unpleasant.
Mercury/Chiron can help with deeply honest explorations of the problem. Digging into the issue and learning everything you can. Conversation is encouraged, but pick your audience carefully. This is not surface small talk; it’s an unedited reveal of what you’re afraid or ashamed of. Only a certain type of person can listen to this and truly offer unconditional compassion. And this aspect suggests there is someone ready to hear your confession. Or maybe you’re the one who’ll be listening.
Mercury’s inconjunct to Uranus indicates the words/discoveries will be a bit of a shock. This won’t be enough to undermine the positive potential of the Mercury/Chiron trine, but be prepared for a jolt when you reveal/learn the truth.

October 31st, 2017: Venus in Libra Trine the South Node
- October 31st, 2017: Venus in Libra trine the Aquarius South Node (21 deg)
Venus’ connection to the South Node suggests a relationship/attraction from the past may resurface. Aquarius’ friendship blends with Venus in Libra’s flirty vibe, for a light, easy connection.
Too, this aspect might help you carry something from the past into the present, as Venus also makes a harmonious sextile to the Leo North Node. It can be easy to arrive at an agreement about where a relationship stands, and how much energy you want to give it as you move forward. While Venus in Libra is associated with romance, this can be about any cooperative partnership or enjoyable social connection.

Sometimes devotion becomes obsession. For example, when you’re driven to achieve specific results in a relationship, whether or not the other person is on board. As I noted in this post, Vesta’s extreme focus in Libra can hi-light an imbalance. Pressure from Pluto (in the form of a power struggle or overpowering urge to make a partnership perfect) can push things over the edge.
Are fixated on the ideal relationship? Is someone attempting to overpower you by desecrating your sacred partnership rules? If you’re trying to pressure someone into doing things your way, or they’re insisting that the exchange must happen in a way you find objectionable, it’s time to step back. As soon as anyone reaches the point of “this must happen and you’re going to agree with me” you know you’re in distorted Pluto territory.
The crisis of this square will trigger evolution as Vesta’s sacred limits are challenged.
