  • Sun conjunct Neptune in Pisces: 11 degrees
  • Vesta Rx in Cancer trine Pallas in Pisces: 20 degrees
  • Juno in Capricorn trine Ceres in Taurus: 7 degrees

The Sun’s light is diffused through Neptune’s dreams and compassion. A wish could be ignited, or inspiration could wash over you. Sensitivity is heightened, along with the awareness of loss and unreachable goals. But this could also be a time of deep calm, as you let go of all the things you can’t control.

Vesta focuses Pallas’ wisdom, helping you integrate strategies into an emotional area. Rather than rigidly fixating on what you need/what you’re missing, you can apply creative ideas. Issues with family, children or food may be favourably impacted. 

Juno/Ceres favours the nurturing of solid commitments. There’s steady growth of defined agreements about fidelity and the exchange of power. This influence supports relationships where both partners are comfortable with the rules. 

Nothing can be forced today. Neptune dissolves the Sun’s conscious focus, refracting it in odd directions. You probably won’t have control over events, but the trines between the asteroids say that’s ok. Trines indicate a natural progression. Relax, and follow the path of least resistance. 

February 20th, 2017: Fresh Focus

  • 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 inconjunct to Vesta Rx is a small glitch. Mercury’s cool, fresh logic will clash with a sentimental area of devotion. 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.

  • Jupiter Rx in Libra inconjunct Chiron in Pisces: 23 degrees
  • Sun in Aquarius sextile Saturn in Sagittarius: 25 degrees
  • Juno in Capricorn trine the Virgo North Node: 3 degrees

Jupiter Rx/Chiron suggests it will hurt to review a promise or hope. Or, doubts may trigger that review. Don’t attempt to gloss over the discomfort – it’s alerting you to an imbalance. But don’t overreact, either. A small adjustment will be all it takes to make you feel better. 

Helping you deal with the above, Sun/Saturn offers stability. It encourages self-sufficiency, as Aquarius’ independence is supported by Saturn’s maturity. It also encourages calm authority and reliable friendships. There’s no grasping and no dramatics. Just an easy awareness of your responsibilities.   

Juno and the North Node add more positive developments, as official contracts/commitments align with the future. But relationship progress will only happen if both parties are willing to work and improve. Serious, grounded unions are supported.

  • Sun in Aquarius sextile Uranus in Aries: 21 degrees
  • Venus in Aries inconjunct the Virgo North Node: 3 degrees
  • Mercury in Aquarius inconjunct the Virgo North Node: 3 degrees
  • Mercury in Aquarius sextile Venus in Aries: 5 degrees

Uranus rules Aquarius, so there’s extra resonance in this Sun/Uranus aspect (exact on February 9th). Freedom is pronounced, but the ease of the sextile suggests it should feel natural to do your own thing, even if that means you’ll be standing slightly apart from everyone else. One step in a different direction will be all it takes to energize you. This is the easy confidence of self-expression, and leads into the February 10th Full Moon eclipse in Leo. 

On February 9th, Mercury makes a tense inconjunct to the Mercury-ruled North Node, bringing new information that must be taken into consideration. The path forward needs a slight adjustment. This aspect is part of a larger configuration (a Yod) that covers February 7th to February 10th. Venus in Aries made an inconjunct to the North Node on February 7th, and will sextile Mercury on February 10th. Mercury/Venus is good news, or flirtatious/inspiring words, delivered with a bit of sass. Something sounds risky and intriguing. The inconjuncts mean the North Node is the focal point – find a way to integrate new intel into an existing plan or improvement. You still have to be practical, but practical could use a stimulant. Fresh info means more effective upgrades.
