May 28th, 2019: Questions About Nurturing and a New Agreement

by  •

  • Gemini Sun opposite Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (7 deg)

  • Juno conjunct the Cancer North Node (18 deg)

  • Neptune in Pisces trine Juno (18 deg)

Sun/Ceres

Choices/details are at odds with the bigger picture of growth or escape. An area that you’re trying to grow (involving education, travel, legal matters, publishing or faith/religion) has reached a tense conclusion that feels unsatisfactory.

Gemini raises questions or draws awareness to the other side of the story. In this case, the story involves mother/child issues or something that you are trying to “mother” in your future – there may be questions about the faith you placed in your mother, or your identity as a mother. Ceres is about the cycle of growth, loss and rebirth, so there is always a sub-theme of letting someone go (especially in Sagittarius, the sign of the explorer).

Pay attention to the questions that are being asked about mother/child or the truth about a nurturing issue. The Gemini/Sag axis always involves truth/lies – what’s the story and what are the facts?

Ceres is Rx (retrograde) so you’re returning to this issue.

Juno

There is also some powerful activity in Cancer, another area of nurturing. Cancer puts the focus squarely on home, family and security. Mother/child is a theme once again, but Ceres’ emphasis on loss is not as pronounced.

Ceres in Sag is about nurturing freedom while Cancer is about creating safety.

Juno (relationship agreements) activates the North Node (path forward) and is supported by Neptune. This is positive for a new relationship agreement that is nurturing, supportive and expansive (Neptune). It hints at an agreement that will continue to grow – unconditional support is involved.

So it appears that the Gemini Sun is illuminating an ending or question about one area of nurturing while another is coming into being. What new agreements are on the horizon? What areas of faith need to be questioned?

May 27th, 2019: Discordant Nurturing

by  •

  • Mars in Cancer inconjunct Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (7 deg)

Mars in Cancer is nurturing actions. Ceres in Sag is the growth and nurturing of something new, adventurous or exotic. The two are incompatible today – actions may be smothering or overcautious, holding you back when you want to explore. And yet, you can’t throw caution to the winds – you still have to be safe.

Mother/child dynamics are strong but discordant. However this is playing out in your life, consider what you have to do (Mars) to be safe and comfortable while still encouraging growth and expansion in a new area. Since Ceres is Rx, this is something you’re revisiting.

May 23rd, 2019: It Hurts But Keep Talking

by  •

  • Waning Trine between the Aquarius Moon and Gemini Sun (2 deg)

  • Sun in Gemini square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (2 deg)

  • Mars in Cancer square Chiron in Aries (5 deg)

  • Mercury in Gemini sextile Chiron in Aries (5 deg)

Issues from yesterday’s square between Mercury in Gemini and BML continue as the Sun energizes the difficult conversations or mixed messages. Lilith gets the spotlight in a way that illuminates the crisis between taboo women’s issues and hard choices. Perhaps no option seems favourable, or you’re torn between keeping things light versus acknowledging the dark issue that oozes between the lines.

The Waning Trine can help – this is an aspect of sharing and understanding. An open minded, somewhat detached approach can facilitate cooperation – others will respond favourably to potentially disruptive info if you deliver it cooly and calmly. Give them the option to disagree.

Mars/Chiron adds another twist, as actions/anger/sexuality trigger painful moments. Feelings of vulnerability can be particularly intense, and it will be difficult to not make the wrong move. It will seem like everyone (including you) is easily bruised. Fortunately, Mercury is also aspecting Chiron, but it’s making an easy sextile. Talk about what hurts; keep it light, explore multiple solutions, but keep talking and asking questions.

This is also an encouraging aspect for the squares to BML, suggesting that yesterday’s difficult messages can be sorted with a mix of logic and empathy. You’re touching on what hurts and looking at the facts, but you’re not pressing down on it.

May 22nd, 2019: Mixed Messages and Forward Movement

  • Mercury in Gemini square Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (2 deg)

  • Mars in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus (4 deg)

  • Neptune in Pisces trine the Cancer North Node (18 deg)

Mercury/BML

There may be misinformation about sexual issues or gossip about the other woman/unacceptable woman. There will be a multiple sides to her story, which can be confusing. Perhaps you’re having trouble focusing on a BML issue (a destructive attraction or taboo subject) – are you avoiding a truth or spinning distracting lies?

Mars/Uranus

Here is the gentle nudge forward. Uranus in Taurus’ major update of habits/resources/values can help you act on a nurturing or family matter. It’s time to take action and initiate changes, but you don’t have to move abruptly or take big risks. Slow and steady as you step into new territory.

Neptune/North Node

Continuing the forward theme, the Cancer North Node is activated by release, forgiveness, acceptance or imagination. If you open yourself up to an ending or new experience, you may feel a gentle pull towards something that feels right. “Feel” is the key word, because the Cancer North Node is about what resonates emotionally.

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 […]

Mars’ Transit of Cancer, May 15th: It’s Personal

by  •

Mars into Cancer coincides with Venus’ Taurus ingress, continuing the (separating) sextile between them. Mars in Cancer is nurturing, moody, protective actions with a domestic edge – family first, even if you’re not fully aware of how family motivates you. As Mars continues to harmonize with Venus (until May 18th) nurturing actions can net you solid evidence (Taurus) of what you want.

Mars in Cancer acts instinctively – emotion trumps logic and motivations are passionate and somewhat childlike. Cancer takes everything personally, so this transit can be quite volatile. If someone loses their temper you can bet it’s because they feel they’ve been attacked on a personal level.

Anger, arousal or initiative are based on primary needs, or the fear that those needs are being denied. Never forget that Cancer is a Cardinal sign, so there can be outbursts of anger or strength when you least expect it. There can also be assertiveness based on the need to remain safe. This is the grip that tightens when you try to pull away – the ferocious hug or the aggressive mother/child.

During this transit, consider the most personal trigger for your motivations. It’s ok if you act on something because of how it makes you feel (comfortable or uncomfortable). You don’t need to explain this to anyone, but self-awareness is helpful (so you don’t become the rampaging child).

Here are the aspects Mars in Cancer will make:

  • May 18th: trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (1 deg)

  • May 22nd: sextile Uranus in Taurus (4 deg)

  • May 23rd: square Chiron in Aries (5 deg)

  • May 27th: inconjunct Ceres in Sagittarius (7 deg)

  • Jun 1st: square Pallas in Libra (10 deg)

  • Jun 12th: conjunct North Node (17 deg)

  • Jun 14th: trine Neptune in Pisces (18 deg)

  • Jun 14th: opposite Saturn Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)

  • Jun 14th: inconjunct Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (18 deg)

  • Jun 18th: conjunct Mercury (21 deg)

  • Jun 19th: opposite Pluto Rx in Capricorn (22 deg)

  • Jul 1st: Leo ingress

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. […]

ReBuilding Our Value

by  • 

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 […]
