June 9th, 2019: Confusion Here, Focus There

  • Sun in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces (18 deg)

  • Vesta enters Taurus

Sun/Neptune can blur your focus and scatter your sense of purpose. Choices can multiply beyond what is reasonable, and some or all of what you have to choose from may be an illusion. You could be undermined by what’s happening or you could get caught up in a lie or meaningless distraction.

The best way to handle this influence is to accept that much of what you see and hear will probably be false or completely divorced from reality. If you’re struggling with focus, purpose and ego, today might be a good day to rest and just allow the various options to drift in front of you. Wait to see what sticks and what dissolves.

What can counteract the above is Vesta’s move into grounded Taurus. Vesta is supreme focus and sacred energy. In Taurus, that focus is trained on what’s real and valuable – what you can touch, what works, what’s secure. While Vesta’s obsessive focus can become blinkered in this stubborn sign, for today it’s a nice way to balance out any confusion from Sun/Neptune. If you’re getting lost, pay attention to an area that involves earned money, self-esteem, resources, physical issues or fertility/growth. What’s happening there? What’s non-negotiable and absolutely sacred? That’s your bottom line.

Vesta will have an extended run in Taurus, stationing Rx on Sept 23rd at 27 deg and direct on Dec 29th at 12 deg. 12 to 27 deg Taurus in your chart will be quadrupled underlined – your attention will be driven there, again and again.

She will exit Taurus for Gemini on Mar 21st, 2020.

May 29th, 2019: Waning Sextile and Mercury Square Neptune

  • Waning Sextile between the Aries Moon and Gemini Sun (7 deg)

  • Mercury in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces (18 deg)

The Waning Sextile suggests new impulses can accelerate the flow of information or push you to make a choice. There can be an increased sense of urgency to communicate or check out new facts. This will happen smoothly, so the urgency will happen without pressure – you can even ignore this if you want. However, it would be to your benefit to go with the flow and pay attention to anything new/exciting/passionate that’s grabbed your attention.

Having said that, the Mercury/Neptune square can raise some tricky signals. What’s true and what’s not will be difficult to discern. It may be challenging to focus on one issue or deliver a clear message. While Neptune can encourage you to look at/say more (as it dissolves limits) and this can accelerate the flow of the Waning Sexilte, you want to pay attention to the facts. Make sure that the information is accurate, and don’t succumb to the temptation to blur what you’re not certain about.

Only proceed with what makes sense and what’s clear.

May 22nd, 2019: Mixed Messages and Forward Movement

  • Mercury in Gemini square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (2 deg)

  • Mars in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus (4 deg)

  • Neptune in Pisces trine the Cancer North Node (18 deg)

Mercury/BML

There may be misinformation about sexual issues or gossip about the other woman/unacceptable woman. There will be a multiple sides to her story, which can be confusing. Perhaps you’re having trouble focusing on a BML issue (a destructive attraction or taboo subject) – are you avoiding a truth or spinning distracting lies?

Mars/Uranus

Here is the gentle nudge forward. Uranus in Taurus’ major update of habits/resources/values can help you act on a nurturing or family matter. It’s time to take action and initiate changes, but you don’t have to move abruptly or take big risks. Slow and steady as you step into new territory.

Neptune/North Node

Continuing the forward theme, the Cancer North Node is activated by release, forgiveness, acceptance or imagination. If you open yourself up to an ending or new experience, you may feel a gentle pull towards something that feels right. “Feel” is the key word, because the Cancer North Node is about what resonates emotionally.

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?
