  • Venus in Gemini inconjunct the Capricorn South Node (17 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini inconjunct Saturn Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini opposite Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (17 deg)

  • Uranus in Taurus conjunct Vesta (5 deg)

  • Uranus and Vesta sextile Black Moon Lilith in Pisces ( 5 deg)

Venus

Venus/Jupiter can exaggerate what you want – there may appear to be more choices regarding a financial, relationship or value issue. And they will be exuberant and tempting. But some of those choices will be unwise, as Jupiter retrograde asks you to review before you say “yes.” And Venus’ inconjuncts to the South Node and Saturn Rx insist that a rule/limit from the past will narrow your choices. So really, you may only have one, viable option. The brakes will be applied and that issue from the past will not be ignored.

Uranus

Uranus/Vesta adds urgency to an area of focus. Vesta is the ultimate focus/sacred flame, and Uranus suggests a sudden shot of devotion; an all-or-nothing, extreme jolt that clarifies what has the most value (Taurus). This will include old values/resources/habits being blown away.

The sextile to BML suggests this will involve some taboo, possibly magical/transcendent expressions of female energy. One of Lilith’s manifestations is the witch, and this is emphasized in Pisces, the sign that lies beyond reality. Here we have a wake-up call about what/who is essential, even if she’s “forbidden.”

Vesta is purity and BML is dark, raw sexuality (the prostitute, the other woman, the woman who belongs to no one). When they harmonize, what’s socially forbidden becomes a path to personal enlightenment and discipline (Vesta is untouchable in her own way – she also belongs to no one but herself).

Add Uranus’s liberation, and you have a whole new set of values and security at your fingertips.

Summary

So, if we consider Uranus/Vesta/BML and the aspects to Venus (also female energy and the ruler of Taurus) a picture emerges- you’re questioning what sounds/looks good regarding love and values. Is it hollow? At the same time, there’s one, undeniable choice. You’re not stuck in the past, but you are paying attention to what came before so you don’t make the same mistakes. Or maybe there’s an ongoing responsibility/tradition that still has value.

Either way, Uranus/Vesta in Taurus insists that part of this is about devoting yourself to a new goddess – a new expression of female energy/values (whether you’re a man or woman) who cracks the Saturn whip.

June 12th, 2019: The Natural Choice

  • Waxing Trine between the Libra Moon and Gemini Sun (21 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini opposite Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (4 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (4 deg)

  • Mars in Cancer conjunct the North Node (17 deg)

The Waxing Trine allows you to blend relationship prompts with choices and new information. Excellent for socializing, sharing with others and making the natural choice regarding social interactions. The exchange of information should move effortlessly and in a balanced way.

The Mars/North Node conjunction adds to the encouragement, as actions based on needs and emotions carry you forward. Stepping away from the past and into an area that’s satisfying and speaks to you on a gut level is emphasized – do not be afraid to do what feels right even if you can’t articulate it.

However, continuing the story from yesterday’s Ceres/BML square, we see Venus in Gemini opposing Ceres and squaring Lilith. Different facets of female energy are at odds – the mother (Ceres) the taboo woman (BML) and the more familiar/typical expression of femininity (Venus). Choices about relationships and/or expressing your female identity are in flux. None of the choices will be easy, as they oppose an area of nurturing and trigger a crisis around undermining or “unacceptable” female sexual energy. Maybe two women or two sides yourself will be involved (Gemini means duality).

And yet, the choices must be (carefully) explored and the options weighed. Venus rules the Libra Moon, so the Waxing Trine can help with this. Choose what comes naturally and go in the direction that seems to be unfolding most easily. You won’t be able to make everyone happy, but that’s not what this is about.

At the same time, keep in mind that Mars over the North Node means you are moving forward. You’re doing it differently this time. Break those old habits.

June 11th, 2019: Ceres Challenges Lilith

  • Ceres Rx in Sagittarius square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (4 deg)

Ceres is the Great Mother (nurturing) and BML is the dangerous lady/witch/other woman/outcast. When the two form a square, there can be tension between nurturing in an expansive (Sagittarius) way versus sliding (Pisces) around the ideals of nurturing with “taboo” expressions of female sexuality or the exploration of a dream/fantasy that releases you from nurturing.

Lilith is not a typical mother. In her myth, she gave birth to demon children so she sometimes symbolizes a thwarted desire to have children, or the complete rejection of motherhood. She is often associated with abortion and miscarriage. So in today’s aspect, we have Ceres Rx in Sag as the fiery, hopeful area of growth (Rx means you’re revisiting this issue) and BML in Pisces as the cold undercurrent that releases you.

These tensions can play out in various ways, and the crisis of the square (plus Ceres’ Rx status) draws your attention to this. Is there a nurturing/mothering ideal that needs to be released or circumvented? Is your immersion in a fantasy/dangerous attraction undermining an area of growth? Are you escaping or avoiding?

June 6th, 2019: Courage, Compassionate Words and Transformed Agreements

  • Mercury in Cancer trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (3 deg)

  • Pluto Rx in Capricorn opposite Juno in Cancer (22 deg)

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

Mercury/BML

Lilith finds an outlet for her message. Her slippery, dangerous undercurrent of taboo female sexuallity can be verbalized in a way that’s personal – everyone who hears her message will apply it to themselves in some way, for the better. Excellent for triggering empathy or delving into your own BML issues via family discussions.

Pluto Rx /Juno

A major transformation to a relationship agreement brings you to a turning point or ending. This can be the “death” of contract or a confrontation that triggers fear of loss and the resulting refusal to let go (or an unbalanced expression of power as one partner attempts to dominate). Pluto will intensify all dynamics because subconscious issues are dredged up. Don’t’ expect a logical discussion but do look for truths to emerge. Pluto is Rx, so you and another are returning to this issue.

Chiron/Ceres Rx

Expanded nurturing, or the nurturing of a quest/new area of learning/faith can help you address certain wounds. Chiron in Aries is the vulnerability of true courage, or having the courage to be the pioneer while others turn away. The trine to Ceres Rx encourages you to keep moving forward into unknown territory. Ceres is Rx, so you may be revisiting this issue (perhaps you’ve contemplated this before).

May 23rd, 2019: It Hurts But Keep Talking

  • Waning Trine between the Aquarius Moon and Gemini Sun (2 deg)

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

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

  • Mercury in Gemini sextile Chiron in Aries (5 deg)

Issues from yesterday’s square between Mercury in Gemini and BML continue as the Sun energizes the difficult conversations or mixed messages. Lilith gets the spotlight in a way that illuminates the crisis between taboo women’s issues and hard choices. Perhaps no option seems favourable, or you’re torn between keeping things light versus acknowledging the dark issue that oozes between the lines.

The Waning Trine can help – this is an aspect of sharing and understanding. An open minded, somewhat detached approach can facilitate cooperation – others will respond favourably to potentially disruptive info if you deliver it cooly and calmly. Give them the option to disagree.

Mars/Chiron adds another twist, as actions/anger/sexuality trigger painful moments. Feelings of vulnerability can be particularly intense, and it will be difficult to not make the wrong move. It will seem like everyone (including you) is easily bruised. Fortunately, Mercury is also aspecting Chiron, but it’s making an easy sextile. Talk about what hurts; keep it light, explore multiple solutions, but keep talking and asking questions.

This is also an encouraging aspect for the squares to BML, suggesting that yesterday’s difficult messages can be sorted with a mix of logic and empathy. You’re touching on what hurts and looking at the facts, but you’re not pressing down on it.

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.
