  • Venus in Cancer trine Neptune Rx in Pisces (18 deg)

  • Mercury Rx in Leo trine Ceres in Sagittarius (0 deg)

The trine from Neptune takes the edge off the Venus/Saturn opposition. After the restrictions comes a gentle release and increase in acceptance, grace or relief. Neptune expands where Saturn restricted and opens up possibilities that exist to the side of Saturn’s rules. If the Saturn opposition brought a commitment or official result, Neptune can enhance the good stuff.

Mercury makes the second of three trines to Ceres, asking you to have faith in what you’re hearing or saying. The first trine occurred on June 29th when Ceres was Rx, and now that Mercury is Rx (and Ceres is direct) you may be asking again or reconsidering what you’ve learned, involving an area of nurturing and exploration. Keep honing your message, because it can grow into something bigger.

If we can quietly observe and reflect in what holds the most importance for our individual growth, we could find an opportunity in this cosmic process of breakdown, to break through. Areas that surround our values, relationships, love and money will be most sensitive this week, with a lonely Venus/Saturn opposition on Wednesday July 17, […]

July 12th, 2019: Approach With Confidence

  • Sagittarius Moon conjunct Ceres Rx (0 deg)

  • Sagittarius Moon trine Mercury Rx in Leo (3 deg)

  • Sagittarius Moon trine Chiron Rx in Aries (5 deg)

The Sag Moon unites with Ceres (nurturing) for enhanced awareness of expansion/adventure that’s ready for growth and nurturing. Ceres’ Rx status means the issue is being reviewed – perhaps the type of nurturing someone is receiving is being reconsidered. Mother themes are prominent – beliefs, faith or education about a mothering issue.

The Moon goes on to form a brief Grand Fire Trine with Mercury and Chiron Rx – a smooth flow of vital energy brings life to a repeat discussion/realization which helps you discuss a sore spot (Chiron). Watch for a feeling of hope and enthusiasm- there is a solution and there is something bold/creative that you can do. Note that everything the Moon is aspecting is Rx – not a new issue, but the second time around could present a breakthrough.

Talk about it and approach the issue with confidence. Try to light the fire again.

July 8th, 2019: Slow Down, It Hurts

by  •

  • Mercury Rx in Leo conjunct Mars (4 deg)

  • Venus in Cancer square Chiron in Aries (5 deg)

  • Venus in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus (6 deg)

  • Chiron stations Rx in Aries (5 deg)

Mercury/Mars

Words and actions unite, but Mercury’s Rx status means one or more of the following:

  • taking action on a conversation/idea from the past

  • questioning current actions (look behind the shine)

  • looking back intensifies the decision to act (it’s time)

  • a message from the past triggers anger/passion/assertiveness

In general, there’s increased thoughtfulness combined with bold/showy actions. There could be delays, but more likely the second look or question will prompt the actions. This can be a powerful way to manifest, provided you take note of what Mercury Rx is telling you.

Venus/Chiron

Venus’ square to Chiron in Mars-ruled Aries adds another layer to the above. It would appear that the actions are happening in the face of a painful relationship, financial or self-esteem issue. Venus in Cancer is tender, and a hard aspect to Chiron means ultra-sensitive moments where you don’t get what you want (including empathy) or what you want reveals some very awkward feelings. Perhaps this is why Mercury is Rx when joined with Mars – it will be so important to slow down and proceed with care even if you’re asserting yourself with bold words.

However, Venus’ sextile to Uranus (in Venus-ruled Taurus) is hopeful. Despite the pain and tenderness, there’s room to progress, provided you focus on doing things for yourself and liberating yourself from stagnant habits/security needs. Taurus is about self-sufficiency and Uranus is about independence. These energies can support Venus who is (let’s be honest) sometimes quite helpless and needy in Cancer. Look at how you can become more self-sufficient.

And finally, Chiron stations Rx after the “ouch” with Venus. This echoes Mercury’s Rx – more reviews and intensifications. Whatever Venus/Chiron stirred up will amplify what hurts. Chiron Rx can press harder on the wound or force you to slow down and look inside. You can’t ignore it – it’s time to face the pain. You may be called on to display more courage, even though you feel weak. That “weakness” is the entry point and it’s where the healing begins.

Today is the day you assert yourself, with carefully chosen words, in the face of what hurts. Today is the day you take stock of why it hurts.

July 7th, 2019: Mercury Stations Retrograde

  • Waxing Sextile between the Virgo Moon and Cancer Sun (14 deg)

  • Mercury stations Rx (4 deg Leo)

The Waxing Sextile is an opportunity to examine- pay attention to the details, to the truth, and use this to improve a personal or family situation. This is about taking formless needs or unexamined cravings and defining them. Look at the facts and consider what the next step is – put it into words. Get real about it.

Mercury rules this Moon and Mercury stations retrograde today. This suggests that the positive momentum of the sextile can help you question, review or reconsider an issue involving pride, attention or childlike urges. This is the time to look closely at what lights your fire and how you centre yourself. Have you lost track of your core purpose? This transit can hook you back into what’s essential, while raising questions about what others are saying in loud and convincing voices.

Mercury stations direct on July 31st. Between now and then, be prepared for the usual delays, changes of opinions and messages from the past.

July 5th, 2019: Juno and Black Moon Lilith

  • Juno in Leo inconjunct Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (6 deg)

Juno in Leo is the proud wife or partner. BML is the other woman/taboo woman. In Pisces, this suggests a sacrifice, loss or transcendence (rising above). Lilith is at odds with Juno, and the inconjunct says that an adjustment must be made between them.

That means an agreement or issue of pride/ fidelity must be adjusted with a sacrifice. Perhaps one partner’s ego needs to be set aside to make room for BML’s controversial energy. However, this must be done in a way that doesn’t undermine the agreement – the acceptance (Pisces) of something shouldn’t be so humbling that it’s victimizing.
