  • Libra Sun sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (20°)

Here is a balanced expression of hope and wisdom. Social justice and issues of partnership right/wrong will be themes. Equitable growth and delivery of the truth is possible, but the harmony of this aspect means you’ll have to make an effort. Focus on what you know is right for both parties, and if someone is presenting you with a new perspective, keep an open mind. 

This energy is socially enthusiastic and confident, and is part of today’s Full Moon. If you’re aware of this energy, it can help to balance out some of this Moon’s heaviness.

Aries Full Moon: Let It Rip

by  • 

I found myself, recently, in an uncomfortable and prolonged state of hyper-vigilance. I could feel the way my body wouldn’t allow myself to fully relax. The tension behind my heart, and in my shoulders, as if bolstering myself, readying myself, for the next fresh hell to appear, the next tiger or bear to attack. It was […]

October 12th, 2019: New Relationship Dynamics

  • Mercury in Scorpio trine the Cancer North Node (12°)

  • Venus in Scorpio opposite Uranus RX in Taurus (5°)

  • Mars in Libra inconjunct Uranus RX in Taurus (5°) 

Venus/Uranus can trigger a surprise ending/result that disrupts a hidden or taboo issue. Relationships, values or finances will be abruptly clarified as an external shock forcibly detaches you from what you’ve been trying to possess. This could also be a sudden urge for liberation from a heavy situation. In some cases, a radical new attraction can shake your sense of control. 

Uranus’ harsh, clear light pierces Scorpio depths and reveals the truth about what you love or want. The shock provides clarity which can only arrive when you step outside of Scorpio’s all-encompassing intensity. If you’ve been trying to possess someone, they may be ripped away.

Mars/Uranus adds unbalanced actions/sexual energy to the above as current relationship efforts are revealed to be incompatible with this revelation. Mars will scramble around in an effort to find a new balance point: doing nothing for fear of rocking the boat and then doing something ill- advised and impulsive. 

The old relationship dynamics no longer exist: Uranus has blown them away. The change must be honored but a new balance point must be found. It will be difficult, but make an effort to moderate your actions according to this new normal. Be wary of reacting without thought, even if circumstances are pushing you.

On an easier note, Mercury/North Node says that intimate conversations or deeply honest words will guide you in the right direction. The path forward is pointed towards a place that’s more emotionally honest, empathetic and in tune with your core needs. Today’s nakedly honest observations or deep self-analysis can take you there.

October 11th, 2019: Sun Inconjunct Black Moon Lilith

  • Libra Sun inconjunct Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (17°)

Libra’s social graces are incompatible with BML’s slippery magic. Lilith in Pisces is taboo female energy and sexuality that dissolves boundaries, hints at chaos/temptation and is impossible to define.

There may be conflicting urges to follow the forbidden path, even if this undermines the balance in a partnership. The balance may feel boring or restrictive, but it’s important to be aware of the risk of undermining your ego through destructive sacrifice (via unhealthy relationship choices) versus honoring the rebellious magic.

BML says there is something on the edges to explore, but don’t allow it to tip you over the edge.

October 9th, 2019: Sun Inconjunct Neptune

  • Sun in Libra inconjunct Neptune RX in Pisces (16°)

This tricky aspect can see you misinterpreting a partnership issue or attempting to completely avoid compromise. Pride and purpose can be dissolved if you lose your sense of self to another.

Neptune whispers that there is something that transcends your one-on-one connections. There is more at stake than the partnership, or your social life. The key will be maintaining that balance between the reality of your relationships versus the understanding that it’s not all about your relationships. Neptune is transpersonal and encompasses everyone.

When you feel delusion or misunderstanding creeping into your relationships, take a step back and try to distance yourself. See where that point of balance is between you and another and then consider the bigger issue. Is more compassion needed? Have you been caring too much about making others happy? 

In general, this aspect can make it difficult to maintain your centre in any one -on -one contact. There will be doubts about how to express your ego, and you may err on the side of sacrificing your pride for the sake of harmony.

October 8th, 2019: Mars Opposite Chiron

  • Mars in Libra opposite Chiron RX in Aries (3°)

Mars in Libra is about balanced actions, but when it opposes the Wounded Healer balance will be very difficult. It may seem like the more you try to compromise or do what’s socially acceptable, the more you rub someone the wrong way. Too, you may find yourself reacting to someone else’s wounds. 

This can be especially difficult with passive aggressive expressions of anger. If the anger is not fully owned, it will be projected onto someone and they’ll get hurt. 

Accept that there’s going to be painful moments today and pay attention to the sore spots that are revealed. Even if the revelation is indirect, this is an excellent time to be aware of a vulnerability that needs to be addressed. If you’re afraid to act because you don’t want to hurt someone or stand out/be uncomfortable, know that you probably won’t be able to avoid this. Move cautiously, but don’t just sit there. Remember that Mars rules Aries, and Chiron in Aries is about taking action, even if it hurts.

Honoring Our Spirit | Starcana Cosmic Dirt

Intentions may feel a bit tested this week, between the irritable Mercury/Uranus opposition, a restrictive Sun/Saturn square on Monday October 7 – and the finicky Venus/Uranus opposition on Saturday October 12. An unexpected shift could be hard to resist, as overpowering winds aim to send us off into another direction. Stay mindful, in order to […]
