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. […]

May 5th, 2019: Mars in Gemini Opposite Jupiter

Mars in Gemini opposite Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (23 deg)
Actions (Mars) are at odds with expansion (Jupiter) but in this case it can lead to exaggerated efforts, big efforts or a massive leap of faith. Jupiter pumps up Mars’ actions in any aspect, but the opposition amplifies the speed and enthusiasm due to the tension (you’re trying to act on beliefs that are out of reach). Any combo of Mars/Jupiter can be “lucky” but it can also be careless. There’s a fine line.
A conclusion or result can hit quickly, and since Jupiter is retrograde this may be your second shot at something. This can be your breakthrough moment as you finally decide to do it. You could be pushing that choice (Gemini) forward, no matter what.
There is great potential for achievement, but there’s also a lack of satisfaction since Jupiter encourages Mars to pursue more/bigger. So you have to be careful that what you’re pushing doesn’t become so overwhelming that you lose control. Since we’re dealing with the Gemini/Sag axis, information, opinions and beliefs may be the fuel that drives you, as you act on what you’ve learned.
Look before you leap, and carefully consider the choice you’re about to make.
Since this is a conclusion, we look back to the last Jupiter/Mars conjunction to see when the seeds were planted. On Jan 6th, 2018 Mars conjoined Jupiter at 17 deg Scorpio; that was your start (on a deep, possibly secret level) to what’s happening now.

May 1st, 2019: Venus and Mars

Venus in Aries conjunct Vesta (12 deg)
Venus in Aries opposite Pallas Rx in Libra (13 deg)
Mars in Gemini inconjunct Saturn Rx/South Node in Capricorn (20 deg)
Venus
Venus/Vesta focuses on a key issue of aesthetics, relationships, money or values. The courage to try something new or stand up for what you want/love becomes a sacred matter. Vesta’s exclusive focus and Aries’ subjective energy means this issue should be primarily about you (even if someone else is involved). Are you attracting what reflects your courage? How does it feel to put yourself first?
This is about the independence to be or express what you want. Vesta’s purity is based on virginity (vestal virgins tended the sacred flame in Vesta’s temple) but the meaning of “virginity” was sexuality that did not belong to others. It was feminine energy that was self-contained and belonged to that woman alone.
As Venus opposes Pallas (in Venus-ruled Libra) this “me first” energy will challenge a relationship strategy. That’s ok, because there’s an imbalance that needs to be corrected. Something new is being introduced into the dynamics – something more assertive and selfish (selfish does not have to be a bad thing).
Mars
Mars’ flexible choices and fast-moving impulses are at odds with the Saturn/South Node ending. You may experience a block (from the past?) as you attempt to make something happen. You may feel pressured to choose a way to say goodbye.
With the inconjunct, you need to adjust both sides. Focus is needed, as is attention to the ending or responsibility. But don’t let this shut you down – keep moving and maintain your sense of curiosity and motivation. Some choices will be restricted, but you still have work to do.

ReBuilding Our Value
Where we’ve been investing our energy will begin to slow down considerably, or possibly come to a complete pause under the next four-and-a-half months as Taskmaster Saturn stations retrograde on Monday April 29. As insecurities, responsibilities and fears start to rise beneath the big boss Saturn, we can either renegotiate, restructure, and rebuild… or re-experience […]
April 27th, 2019: Questionable Motivations

Mars in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces (17 deg)
Mercury in Aries opposite Pallas Rx in Libra (14 deg)
Mars/Neptune
Mars/Neptune is confused or undermining actions. Mars in Gemini can jump between different choices, but then Neptune blurs the details and the choices slide in and out of focus. What you do may be questionable, deceptive or scattered (multiple starts that fizzle out).
Use caution with all actions and initiatives – have a backup plan and leave yourself extra time to compensate for difficulty in focusing. If you have any doubts about the integrity of what you’re doing (or what they’re doing) listen to those doubts. This aspect can indicate the stealthy side-step or endless distractions.
Mercury/Pallas
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, and Mercury is in Mars-ruled Aries. The assertive comment is too blunt for polite social strategies (Pallas in Libra) so there may be disagreements. But that assertiveness could be misguided. Go back to the primary motivations (Mars) for the disagreement- are they muddled or is there a deceptive side?
