Sagittarius Season

by  •

The Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22nd at 9:58 AM EST. Now we enter the season of expansion and new possibilities. Nothing is proven, but the hope of what could be is paramount. “Potential” is the key word.

This sign is about exploration and humour; we keep moving forward because we do not allow the seriousness of events to weigh us down. However, issues of right/wrong and truth/wisdom are approached with passion or fanaticism. Humour does not mean that big- picture issues are discounted. Optimism needs a direction, and that can run the gamut from open-minded curiosity about everything to radical crusades designed to convert everyone.

Will certain legal or political “truths” emerge during the Sagittarius season? Perhaps. With Sag, truth is often woven into a very convincing story. 

But overall, the energy of this Jupiter -ruled sign is about bigger and better. Things have a tendency to increase and self-control flies out the window. But it’s always fun to tap into this energy if you want to celebrate and look forward to the future. And having something to look forward to is essential for progress.

Here are the aspects the Sagittarius Sun will make.

Nov 26th: New Moon (4°)

Dec 12th: Full Moon in Gemini (19°)

The Sun will enter Capricorn On December 21st.

November 19th, 2019: Third Quarter Square And Black Moon Lilith

by  •

  • Third Quarter Square between the Leo Moon and Scorpio Sun (27°)

  • Venus in Sagittarius square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (22°)

The Third Quarter Square raises questions about the spotlight of external recognition versus the darkness of internal shadow work, secrets and investigations. The tension of this square does not demand action. Rather, it urges you to question what’s been hidden or forbidden. Issues of fame, pride or bold displays will create a jarring contrast with what’s going on behind the scenes. The questions can become obsessive as you fixate on what’s bright and obvious-has some jealousy been triggered? What are the shadow issues behind the bright light?

Venus/BML is about the tension between new and expansive relationships, values and optimistic ideals versus the cool and subtle current of taboo female sexuality: the witch, other woman, prostitute or outsider has a hard- to- pin-down magic that subverts more acceptable beliefs about women and female values. At this point of tension, it is proper and timely to question your beliefs before you move forward. In some way, a new experience will challenge Lilith’s slippery magic. This could be a question of sexual ethics or the struggle between man -made beliefs versus undefined spiritual energy.

November 14th, 2019: Venus Square Neptune And A Touch of Lilith

  • Scorpio Sun trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (21°)

  • Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

Sun/BML allows you to dip smoothly into Lilith’s forbidden waters. Exploring sexuality or a female persona that drift outside the lines can be empowering and natural. Nothing is forced-go with the intuitive current that pulls you in a magical or secretive direction. 

But Venus/Neptune suggests you have to be careful in case you go too far. Values, relationships or self-esteem can be undermined by unhealthy fantasies or risky attractions. There’s a draw to more and better, but the situation that appears to embody these qualities could be false. The fantasy of the ultimate romantic escape or liberating gift can end up costing you way too much. 

Dip your toes in the water but don’t lose sight of the shore.

November 13th, 2019: Quiet Power

  • Scorpio Sun sextile Pluto in Capricorn (21°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn (16°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio trine Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

Pluto rules Scorpio, so this harmonious connection with the Sun adds depth and power to an issue that’s currently being illuminated. Power can be expressed effectively without trampling over others- tap into the transformation of old rules/structures for a solid confirmation and the reveal of valuable strength and resources. This is power that’s expressed with calmness and quiet assurance.

Mercury/Neptune is a profound  flow of words. There are no limits to what can be said, as long as what’s communicated is authentic. Saturn adds some control and boundaries, keeping the focus on the relevant issues and injecting a touch of reality. Excellent if you need to communicate creatively or compassionately, but also with authority. You could also be discussing or contemplating a necessary sacrifice.

These Mercury aspects have occurred previously (when it was direct) from October 14-15th. So you are now revisiting this issue or reconfirming the terms.

November 11th, 2019: Sun Conjunct Mercury RX

  • Scorpio Sun conjunct Mercury RX (18°)

The inferior conjunction between the Sun and Mercury marks the halfway point of Mercury’s retrograde. This can be a time of clarity as the deep reviews and investigations suddenly make sense. You might uncover what you’ve been searching for or reach a turning point in the process of questioning. A secret could be revealed or the intense, repeat conversation could bear fruit.

Mercury will still be retrograde so there will not be forward movement just yet, but there should be an understanding of how to tackle the remainder of this transit. Know that what you discover today will be the absolute truth.
