There are a few challenges to be experienced in this new week under the sluggish Sun/Saturn square on Wednesday April 10, a clumsy Mercury/Jupiter square on Friday April 12, and a demanding Sun/Pluto square on Saturday April 13. Although dark clouds are brewing, a few of us will still be pacing back and forth before […]

Double Bubble of Trouble | Starcana Cosmic Dirt
Venus enters Pisces. What has recently mattered and supported our personal growth will be shifting as Venus transits from altruistic Aquarius, to join thoughtful Mercury and imaginative Neptune in bubbly Pisces, on Tuesday March 26. During the next four weeks, we could find ourselves attracted to what proves to be sympathetic, forgiving and healing. Through […]
Ready for a Clean Break | Starcana Cosmic Dirt
Sun enters Aries, Spring Equinox, Virgo Full Moon. Welcome to brand new week my friend! A turn of the wheel is taking place as the powerful Sun (ego, identity) moves out of the sympathetic waters of Pisces, and into the active fires of Aries on the Spring Equinox, Wednesday afternoon March 20. During the next four […]
March 11th, 2019: A Day of Ease

Arthur Melville
Waxing Sextile between the Taurus Moon and Pisces Sun (21 deg)
Venus in Aquarius sextile Ceres in Sagittarius (11 deg)
Taurus’ immediate reality grounds Pisces’ exalted dreams. Vague potentials from the March 6th Pisces New Moon can be integrated with what’s in front of you. Consider how you can move forward, step by step. What are some simple, practical things you can do that will have a physical impact? This is how you give form to the dream or work your way through the confusion.
Venus/Ceres supports open-minded nurturing and expressions of love. There is no possessiveness here – no judgements or restrictions. No fear. Caring for someone or encouraging the growth of a desired potential means opening your eyes to other possibilities and allowing the unexpected to develop.
Overall, today’s sextiles promise easy opportunities to move forward. Nothing dramatic, just some gentle nudges in the right direction.

Dreaming of the Unthinkable | Starcana Cosmic Dirt
Good day my friend! If a tsunami of chaos spilled over from the transformative eclipse, you may find yourself struggling from the intense results as the lunar vibrations continue to trickle in. Mercury Station Retrograde. While fear and desperation may have driven us toward a direction that appeared to be safe… incoming bouts of confusion […]
March 4th, 2019: Optimistic Taboos

Moon in Aquarius sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (22 deg)
Moon in Aquarius conjunct Black Moon Lilith (23 deg)
A powerful day for freedom, as the Moon is supported by expansive Jupiter. Adventure, independence and the open-minded consideration of anything (especially if it’s new) is favoured. Moon/Jupiter also brings optimism – it will feel as if things will work out, even though you have no proof or plan. But the sextile is harmonious, so this vibe won’t be exaggerated. Meaning, things shouldn’t get too crazy.
Building on this energy, the Moon/BML conjunction amplifies two sides of the feminine principle. The edgy and controversial facets of women’s sexuality and women’s roles in society are supported. Moon equals mother and BML is the opposite, and when they unite (in the detached sign of Aquarius) you have a new version of mother/woman whose identity is not defined by society.
This is a good day to consider different expressions of female energy that would normally be considered taboo or “weird” (according to polite society). Jupiter encourages you to do what feels good – focus on what’s positive and comfortable for you. Lift yourself up with your own truths, even if no one else approves (although Jupiter usually indicates ease in bringing the new forward to others).

March 3rd, 2019: Stubborn Challenges

Moon in Aquarius trine Juno in Gemini (7 deg)
Moon in Aquarius sextile Ceres in Sagittarius (10 deg)
Moon in Aquarius square Mars in Taurus (11 deg)
The Aquarius Moon starts off with a harmonious trine to Juno, encouraging open-minded choices in relationships and agreements. This is not the time to demand a commitment – Moon in Aquarius is about freedom which supports Juno in Gemini’s flexible choices.
Moon/Ceres then suggests nurturing which supports the exploration of whatever’s new and unusual. Ceres is about mother’s nurturing and nourishment. When it harmonizes with the Moon (the archetype of mother/child) we have a strong focus on nurturing an independent spirit. Growth is achieved by venturing into the unknown.
But the Moon runs into a square with Mars, which will present some bumps in today’s smooth flow. Mars in Taurus is stubborn, habitual actions. In a crisis-aspect to the Moon we have the potential for anger and resentment that’s triggered when independence become threatening.
Expect some challenges; either your freedom will trigger someone or someone’s individuality will conflict with your efforts. Taurus and Aquarius are both Fixed signs, so tension will not be easily diffused. Both parties will dig in and demand that things go their way.
