September 12th, 2018: Opportunity

- Venus in Scorpio opposite Uranus Rx in Taurus: 2 deg
- Venus in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn: 2 deg
- Jupiter in Scorpio sextile Pluto Rx in Capricorn: 18 deg
Venus
Venus in Scorpio interacts with the not-quite-exact Saturn/Uranus trine. Her opposition to Uranus is the shock- the disruption to what you want, or the surprising thing that you didn’t know you wanted (the electric attraction or burst of desire for something). Along the Fixed Scorpio/Taurus axis, there’s a sense of change erupting from a deep place. A reluctant but intense overhaul. The opposition indicates an ending or result and usually an external source is the trigger.
But she also makes a supportive sextile to Saturn in Capricorn, which reminds us that Saturn trine Uranus is change harmonizing with structure. New rules that are established smoothly. Add Venus to the mix and this could be an opportunity – a chance to get what you want in an unexpected way or uncover deep (Scorpio) and surprising resources. Saturn’s rules/focus/discipline will solidify this.
Uranus can be the blast of clarity into Scorpio’s shadows. The change to your existing resources/security base (Taurus) that reveals something deeper and better. Venus rules Taurus, so this is a new approach to what you already have, but you’re taking it further (or someone is pushing you to take it further). Again, these are Fixed signs, so there’s a reluctant but powerful shift.
Due to Venus’ upcoming Rx, you’ll be encountering this issue again:
- Oct 24th: Venus Rx in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn (4 deg)
- Oct 31st: Venus Rx in Scorpio opposite Uranus Rx in Taurus (0 deg)
Jupiter Sextile Pluto
Jupiter in any aspect to Pluto can indicate success. Jupiter expands Pluto’s power (especially in Pluto-ruled Scorpio) and Pluto intensifies Jupiter’s sense of possibility. With the gentle sextile, the potential for megalomania is diminished – this is a quiet opportunity that can be quite rich and rewarding if you work with it. It will mean taking something a bit further and intensifying your efforts but the rewards will be significant.
This is the last of three Jupiter/Pluto sextiles in Scorpio/Capricorn:
- Jan 15th, 2018: 19 deg
- Apr 14th, 2018: 21 deg (Jupiter Rx)

September 11th, 2018: Benefits and Limits

- Sun in Virgo sextile Jupiter in Scorpio (18 deg)
- Sun in Virgo trine Pluto Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)
- Saturn in Capricorn square Ceres in Libra (2 deg)
Jupiter/Pluto Benefits
Aspects to the Sun are empowering in a grounded, easy- to- handle way. Jupiter gently expands Virgo’s refinement, specialization and improvement. Pluto intensifies this by pinpointing a mission – there’s something specific that must be fixed or made better. A touch of obsession elevates Virgo’s mundane task or service to something extraordinary. Only the best will do.
Jupiter brings benefits in the guise of good timing (situations will go your way) or extra emotional/financial resources. Excellent for health or work matters.
These energies are further powered up by tomorrow’s exact sextile between Jupiter and Pluto.
Limited Nurturing
However, you’ll also be contending with Saturn/Ceres, which will sharply limit and define an area of nurturing. What you want from someone, or what you’re expected to give, will be blocked. This may be an exchange of services, a partnership or social situation. The give and take (Libra) will be unbalanced, and there may be resentment. Fears or rules could clamp down on loving, helping or looking after others. Not the best day to expect cuddles, and you may find that you don’t have much to give anyway. On the plus side, if you’ve been giving too much, this aspect can help you set those boundaries.
Your best bet is to concentrate on the Jupiter/Pluto action. There’s work to be done and you can elevate a practical task to something special.

August 29th, 2018: Mercury Inconjunct Pluto

- Mercury in Leo inconjunct Pluto Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)
Words have more power than you may realize. A subconscious push for domination, along with Leo’s drive for attention, can result in bold statements that end up triggering others. There may also be an undefined fear that your words will be ignored, but all you’re aware of is what’s being said on the surface, which you may interpret as bright, courageous and creative.
This is the disconnect between conscious expression versus subconscious impulses.
Pause before you speak and tune into your deeper motivations. If you’re on the receiving end of a difficult statement, pay attention to what’s not being said and consider the gap between power and how that power is communicated.
Overall, this is not the day to expect smooth communication, although much of the tension will be behind the shine.
This is a repeat aspect (not a new issue):

- August 5th: Mercury Rx inconjunct Pluto Rx (19 deg Capricorn)
