  • Venus in Cancer inconjunct Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (15 deg)

Familiar manifestations of love, affection and values are at odds with expansion and ideals. You may want more without knowing exactly what that consists of. There can be dissatisfaction with domestic issues or a craving for something extra that you try to assuage with food or smothering/needy expressions of affection. Family relationships can cross certain boundaries because of well-meaning attempts to create happiness.

Consider what you want, then consider why it feels like it’s not enough. The discomfort is a message, but there needs to be a balance between more versus what you have.

July 14th, 2019: Injection of Perspective

  • Waxing Inconjunct between the Sagittarius Moon and Cancer Sun (21 deg)

  • Sun in Cancer opposite Pluto Rx in Capricorn (21 deg)

Challenging energies today, as the Waxing Inconjunct presents an awkward reminder that what’s safe/subjective needs to be adjusted with the bigger picture. Personal or family issues may receive an unwelcome injection of wisdom, education or expansion. You have to look up and out while still considering matters closest to you.

Adding to the discomfort, the Sun opposes Pluto Rx. Pluto is the Shadow, the power play or manipulation. The light of the Sun will expose what’s darkest, revealing the underside of family or deeply subjective concerns. Watch for domestic power plays, increased neediness or a result that indicates the “death” of a familiar situation.

This is where the Waxing Inconjunct will come in handy; as much as you may not want to consider the bigger picture or distant horizon, it’s essential that you factor it into this intense Pluto energy. You need that outside input because it will give you perspective on this heavy situation.

July 11th, 2019: Mars Square Uranus

  • Waxing Trine between the Scorpio Moon and Cancer Sun (19 deg)

  • Mars in Leo trine Chiron Rx in Aries (5 deg)

  • Mars in Leo square Uranus in Taurus (6 deg)

The Waxing Trine enables harmony between what’s safe/comfortable and what can be very uncomfortable. Intensity blends with familiarity, moving you towards a profound exploration of needs, feelings or family issues. Excellent for accessing secrets or personal issues that no one wants to look at. Now’s the chance to dive in and get comfortable in the deeper waters.

The Mars/Chiron trine continues that theme as bold or confident actions trigger healing through courage. The wound is there, but you’ve got the stuff to confront it and move through it – you can stand out/stand up even though you feel vulernable.

But…Mars also squares Uranus. So there will be jolts, accidents, explosions of anger or unexpected displays. Again the backdrop of these smooth trines we have a surge of electricity – it may be a push into the future or an impatient demand for attention, no matter the cost. Maybe this is what triggers the need to go deeper. And it can certainly open up an opportunity for healing (Chiron) through bold actions (Mars).

Mars/Uranus is risky – Mars in Leo likes to play/gamble/grab attention and a hard aspect to Uranus cranks that up. These energies can result in liberation or breakage – caution is advised. What are you trying to accomplish? The current is moving forward but it’s best if you exercise awareness.

July 9th, 2019: First Quarter Square

  • First Quarter Square between the Libra Moon and Cancer Sun (16 deg)

  • Moon in Libra square Saturn Rx/South Node in Capricorn (17 deg)

  • Sun in Cancer conjunct the North Node, opposite Saturn Rx/South Node in Capricorn (17 deg)

The First Quarter Square involves the Nodes and Saturn Rx, so there’s extra oomph. Something is out of balance – old rules/traditions/fears need to be addressed, as well as family issues. It feels very personal and subjective, but there’s a prompt that encourages you to step back and balance your needs with another’s.

This will feel uncomfortable: you’ll feel like focusing on your stuff while curling up and hugging your blanket/cat/bottle of wine. The very act of trying to balance anything may feel like too much work. But the way forward (the Sun conjoins the North Node) is only open if you can view the past and future objectively. That means taking action – correct the imbalance, tend to that old responsibility, finalize the ending. Consider how your needs impact others.

The Moon squaring the Nodes means this balance is crucial – you are at the tipping point between past and future. There may be a specific relationship, or this could just be about you bringing your life back into balance. Saturn Rx will apply pressure, forcing you to focus, grow up or do the work. You may need to balance adult with child, authority with empathy, independence with vulnerability.
