Many of us will be experiencing an unquenchable thirst for inner change and growth during this dark, creative vibration. How about you? Are you feeling the burn too? And although we want to do as we do, in this innovative process – doing […]

October 27th, 2019: Mars Square Saturn

Mars in Libra square Saturn in Capricorn (15°)
This aspect is about blocked actions that trigger an imbalance of authority. Social rules and traditions may be oppressive, and the crisis manifests as a Waning Square. This means immediate actions are not appropriate, but questions are.
Even if you wanted to take action, I don’t think you could. But pay attention to the discomfort and questions that are raised. How does the imbalance of authority affect you? What can you do to correct that imbalance? There are certain limits that you simply cannot push past-will you continue to obey them? What compromises can you make?
Is the effort worth it? If it is, what are you willing to endure?
This can be a very frustrating aspect that signifies repressed anger or a fruitless struggle. There will be something unfair about what’s happening. This aspect will relate back to the Mars/Saturn conjunction at 8° Capricorn on April 2nd, 2018. That is when this issue began, with focused efforts, ambition or a need for extra work. Now you’re nearing the end of this cycle with questions about the rules versus your efforts. Think back to the beginning, about what you were trying to make real.

Libra Moon square the Nodes (10°)
Libra Moon conjunct Mars (14°)
Libra Moon square Saturn in Capricorn (15°)
Aspects from the Moon can be felt as passing influences, but sometimes they are enough to trigger a major issue.
The square to the Capricorn South Node/Cancer North Node highlights a difficult choice between familiar traditions/rules versus unknown but more authentic, emotional situations. The Moon rules the North Node which tells us that this is about balancing (Libra) your needs against existing rules. Ideally, you want to move forward (towards the NN) but there will be a struggle to maintain that balance. You may be dealing with a relationship or conventional social situation.
As the Moon joins Mars, watch for a sudden flare up of passion, anger or impulse. There will be an urge to act now, and you may be dealing with passive- aggressive behaviour or the need to be polite. And then the Moon runs into a square with Saturn; any momentum that you developed will come to a halt. Saturn is ruler of the SN, so those issues from the past cannot be ignored. Before you move forward, you must deal with someone in authority and temporarily accept that you’ll be on your own. Despite the poke from Mars, this is not the time to let your feelings run wild. Restraint, maturity and focus on the endgame (the NN) are your goals.
It takes a certain type of strength to achieve balanced restraint: that’s what’s being asked of you today.

Last Quarter Square between the Cancer Moon and Libra Sun (27°)
Mars in Libra square the Capricorn South Node/Cancer North Node (11°)
Venus in Scorpio trine Neptune RX in Pisces (16°)
The Last Quarter Square can trigger difficult questions around balancing your personal needs in a relationship. Maybe you’ve been giving too much or trying so hard to be agreeable that you’ve ignored your core truths. This square will activate a crisis that forces you to consider what you really need and how that compares to what you’ve been giving or receiving.
Adding to the tension, Mars squaring the Nodes can make it very difficult to act or express anger. It may feel like everything you do is out of step with the current. This is actually a reminder to pause and consider the choice that’s been active since September 22nd (Mercury, Venus and the Sun in Libra have squared the Nodes since that date)-the value of old rules/traditions/judgments versus a more authentic path forward that is aligned with what you need.
The Cancer Moon rules the North Node so this is very much about stepping away from familiar but limiting habits and moving towards what’s unfamiliar but authentic. Maybe a responsibility needs to be wrapped up before you step forward. Any action you take should move you towards the North Node.
There is a harmonious connection between Venus and Neptune-this energy promises unconditional love, easy intimacy or a smooth immersion into what you want. While today’s actions will be tricky, attracting, allowing and opening yourself up to something you trust should be effortless (as long as you’re willing to go all the way). Note that Venus rules Libra, so this takes us back to the Third Quarter Square: diving into what’s authentic can be part of the answer to this crisis.

October 18th, 2019: Balancing Objective With Subjective

Waning Trine between the Gemini Moon and Libra Sun (25°)
Libra Sun inconjunct Vesta RX in Taurus (25°)
The Waning Trine enables dissemination of information in a balanced way. Excellent for all communication matters, especially in a one-on-one capacity. Others will be receptive to what you know and will offer something in return. This is light, sociable energy that’s a bit irreverent: good for chatting with others and making random but pleasant connections.
But there is one, small point of tension- the inconjunct indicates difficulties balancing objective concerns with subjective focus. What’s happening today is not all about you, but you still have to integrate a primary focus on personal security/ finances/preservation. The smooth energy of the trine should dominate, but don’t ignore the small twinge that reminds you to consider your own interests.
