Creating The Way Through The Heart | Starcana Cosmic Dirt

Good day friend! Sun (ego, identity) and Mercury (thoughts, communications, short journeys) will both bid farewell from grounded Taurus on Tuesday May 21, to enter curious Gemini. Rather than feel stuck or remain immobile, we’ll take a deep breath; trying a different way that will lead us toward a better change with Sun/Mercury in Gemini.  And […]

May 17th, 2019: Saturn Rx Square Vesta in Aries

  • Saturn Rx in Capricorn square Vesta in Aries (20 deg)

What are you focusing on? Do you feel blocked or fixated? Saturn and Vesta are both about focus, but Vesta is absolute devotion while Saturn is rules and restrictions. When the two form a crisis square, the restrictions (Saturn) on your freedom (Aries) can make the passionate urge to break away that much stronger. This is about being penned in and desperately gazing at what’s on the other side. Your sacred flame (Vesta) is being extinguished.

But is it? Saturn’s limits are always about drawing your attention to an essential matter. A new area of passion/impulse needs to be defined or needs more work. That responsibility will be a crisis, especially since Saturn is Rx – you’re revisiting this. Do you have to try harder? If it’s truly sacred, it can’t be extinguished. Vesta thrives on limits and the tension challenges you to burn brighter. Just make sure that you’re not so focused on breaking away that you forget about your responsibilities.

May 9th, 2019: Shadow Behind the Fire

Waxing Sextile

Here is an opportunity to advance the May 4th New Moon beginnings. With a bit of effort, you can nurture a seed or solid beginning so it grows into something comforting, nourishing and emotionally satisfying. No matter what happened during the New Moon, it’s time to move forward using your needs as fuel. Sounds easy enough – what do you really need? But you have to act on this because no one will deliver it to you. Family, childhood or mother may be involved.

Venus

Venus/Pluto is the crisis of want versus power. The compulsive attraction or obsessive drive to get what you want NOW (no matter the cost) has more behind it. On the surface, it looks like pure Aries competition, passion or impulse. But it’s not pure- there are deeper motivations, an urge to maintain power and fear of losing that power.

This is the corner you turn as you confront the shadow behind the desire. You may be dealing with manipulation or you may be trying to “convince” someone to give you what you want/love. Pushing forward, especially when the other party is reluctant, is a red flag.

Jupiter’s trine to Venus can greatly amplify the Pluto-driven compulsion. While there may be a hot opportunity to earn/create/achieve, proceed very carefully – again, check those background motivations. On the other hand, Jupiter can help you get past the square to Pluto if you hook into the bigger perspective – elevate yourself above the fear of loss and look at the undiscovered country that lies ahead. Is there something new to learn or explore? Jupiter/Venus is hopeful and individual freedom is honoured.

Jupiter and Pluto are Rx (retrograde), so you’ve been here before.

Immovable Opinions

Good day! In our attempt to rebuild what holds value for us, Mercury will exit from spontaneous Aries on Monday afternoon May 6, to enter stubborn Taurus. In the next three weeks, our focus moves from unstoppable to immovable with Mercury in Taurus – which can stall or slow down thoughts, communications and short travels. […]

April 30th, 2019: Saturn Conjunct the South Node

  • Saturn Rx conjunct the Capricorn South Node (20 deg)

Yesterday’s Saturn Rx underlines an ending as it meets up with the South Node. This is a powerful indicator of results from past rules, responsibilities or commitments.

A major ending or turning point is in play, but it will happen slowly. Saturn will conjoin the South Node two more times: on July 4th and September 28th. What’s crystalizing now is the first step in a process.

Some endings take more time because they have to be done correctly and thoroughly. You may need to attend to certain responsibilities before you say goodbye, or you may have to deal with rules/authority that you’ve been ignoring. Maturity is key – accept what’s happening, take care of what’s yours and say “No” to what’s no longer yours.

In some cases, you may be reconnecting with someone who has authority or with whom you feel responsible for. The energy will be heavy and unavoidable.

The door is slowly swinging shut and the clock is running down – the time has arrived to get it done and move on. Yes, you have a few months to work through it, but it needs to start now. This is not something you can rush.
