  • Jupiter in Capricorn square Chiron RX in Aries (1 deg)

  • Ceres in Capricorn conjunct the South Node (8 deg)

The Sun/Neptune square promises limitless faith and good things, but much of what is promised will be false. A square to Neptune is a crisis of truth and belief: the shimmer of possibility is an illusion. There could be questions about what you thought was true.

Venus in Capricorn’s harmonious aspect to Neptune can be a point of grounding and reality for the above. It’s not all false- there’s a seed of magic that can be developed via focus and maturity regarding what you love.

Jupiter in Capricorn’s structured opportunities can trigger moments of doubt or insecurity as it squares Chiron. The need to prove what you’re learning, teaching or growing can stir up some pain, so before you push further down this new path consider why it hurts. You don’t need to stop, but you can use this moment to learn more about an area of vulnerability. 

Ceres over the South Node draws your attention to an issue of mothering or nurturing from the past. Rules about care, loss or rebirth will be the focus- there could be a permanent ending that’s part of a larger cycle. Or, you may be reaping the results of previous attempts to nurture.

November 27, 2019: Venus Square Chiron & Neptune Direct

  • Venus in Capricorn square Chiron RX in Aries (1 °)

  • Neptune in Pisces stations direct (15°)

  • Neptune in Pisces sextile Vesta RX in Taurus (15°)

Venus

Venus/Chiron indicates a painful crisis involving the status or tradition of what you want/love. Relationship commitments, defined examples of what’s beautiful or self-esteem linked to status can trigger moments of tension. There may be insecurities about  lack of status or commitment. Perhaps traditional examples of female energy make you feel like an outsider because you don’t fit the mould. The authority that you want could be undermined by insecurities.

As always with hard aspects to Chiron, you can’t gloss over the unpleasantness. The best approach is to expect that Venus- themed situations (money, relationships, values) will be temporarily difficult. Accept the moment of discomfort and consider if there’s a message for you. How authentic is that status? Is it time to discard certain traditions, or is this a temporary blip? What is the reality of what you want? 

Most importantly, what does this say about your responsibilities regarding boundaries and defined values?

Neptune

It’s interesting that on the same day, Neptune moves forward. While Capricorn is about rules and reality, Neptune dissolves reality. Neptune direct is the current of magic, transcendence or impossibility that circumvents the rules. This is a subtle influence, but it does suggest that issues involving fantasy, compassion, deceit or truth will now move forward. Neptune is associated with deceit but the truthful flip side is always revealed in the end (sometimes resulting in relief and other times resulting in disillusionment). Neptune stationed RX on June 21st at 18°.

As Neptune moves forward it will make it harmonious sextile with Vesta. Devotion to physical resources, money or habits will be gently confirmed and adjusted. Watch for a subtle shift in the current regarding security matters that you’ve been focused on. This is the second of three sextiles between Neptune and Vesta:

  • Jul 30th, 2019

  • Nov 27th, 2019

  • Feb 8th, 2020

So you’re halfway through a process that began in July-an integration of the earthly and the spiritual, reality and dreams or self-preservation and sacrifice.

November 18th, 2019: Leo Moon Challenges

by  • 

Yod.jpg

  • Leo Moon square Mercury RX in Scorpio (11°)

  • Leo Moon inconjunct Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

  • Leo Moon inconjunct Saturn in Capricorn (16°)

Moon square Mercury RX can trigger discordant or anxious thoughts as profoundly focused ideas clash with bold, showy energy. A square is a crisis aspect, and the tension of this crisis can bring to light a particular secret or insight about fame or the need for appreciation. 

The Moon then becomes the focal point of a brief Yod: the inconjuncts to Neptune and Saturn will highlight the disconnect between ego/ drama/me first versus the Saturn/Neptune blend of sacrifice and quiet manifestation. Saturn and Neptune form a separating sextile, which represents the blend of dreams and reality (and the small sacrifice necessary to make it work). The focal point is also the difficult point of integration: it may be a struggle to achieve recognition or to balance pride with work and humility. But somehow, pride and recognition will put a spotlight on your sacrifice. 

This is not a “poor me” influence-it’s taking credit for the quiet work that you’ve done while remembering that dreams have limits and what’s solid can be dissolved.

November 14th, 2019: Venus Square Neptune And A Touch of Lilith

  • Scorpio Sun trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (21°)

  • Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

Sun/BML allows you to dip smoothly into Lilith’s forbidden waters. Exploring sexuality or a female persona that drift outside the lines can be empowering and natural. Nothing is forced-go with the intuitive current that pulls you in a magical or secretive direction. 

But Venus/Neptune suggests you have to be careful in case you go too far. Values, relationships or self-esteem can be undermined by unhealthy fantasies or risky attractions. There’s a draw to more and better, but the situation that appears to embody these qualities could be false. The fantasy of the ultimate romantic escape or liberating gift can end up costing you way too much. 

Dip your toes in the water but don’t lose sight of the shore.
