January 26th, 2019: Getting Real About What You Feel
Photo by Vanderlei Longo from Pexels
Moon in Libra sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (16 deg)
Moon in Libra opposite Mars in Aries (17 deg)
Moon in Libra sextile Venus in Sagittarius (20 deg)
Moon in Libra square Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)
Moon in Libra square the North Node in Cancer/South Node in Capricorn (26 deg)
The Libra Moon starts out on an upbeat note as the sextile to Jupiter encourages more social interactions, more hopeful relations and an increased desire to connect with others. Although the opposition to Mars can trigger some disputes that tip the balance (one person is aggressive and the other is passive) the sextile to Venus (ruler of Libra) continues the theme of friendly vibes.
So far, it seems like the desire to get along is predominant.
However, the square to Pluto will stir up whatever lies beneath the surface of social interactions. Relationships can take on an odd or hostile tone with a sense that that’s more going on, even as everything is presented in a polite manner. As the Moon squares the Nodes, watch for a choice and turning point – you’ll be looking at movement towards an authentic acceptance of needs while stepping away from outdated definitions of status, control and appearance. The tension of the Pluto square will have pushed you to this point – it’s time to get real about what you feel even though it will be messy and uncomfortable.

January 22nd, 2019: Crucial Messages and More Venus

Mercury conjunct the Capricorn South Node (26 deg)
Mercury in Capricorn square Pallas in Libra (26 deg)
Pallas in Libra square the North Node in Cancer/South Node in Capricorn (26 deg)
Venus in Sagittarius conjunct Jupiter (16 deg)
Mercury/Pallas
Mercury over the South Node brings a message/messenger from the past. A key person, conversation or realization involving authority or rules will emerge. Watch for the culmination of a topic that’s been growing in significance, or an official document that finalizes something.
Even if you’ve just met this person or just encountered this message, there will be something familiar here- a sense that you’ve heard this before or you’ve been waiting to hear this. This will be a very significant piece of information that will clearly define a current reality. Perhaps the line between past and present will be verbalized – this could be a formal goodbye.
However, Mercury in Capricorn squares Pallas, which squares the Nodes. A square to the Nodes indicates a key issue that’s troublesome and can block your movement forward to the Cancer North Node (an area of emotional honesty and satisfaction). Pallas in Libra is the social strategy – a solution or approach that’s designed to “win” (Pallas is about doing battle) but in polite Libra, the strategy is coated in sugar. This is social engineering and pretty words with a steel core. Winning the social/relationship battle with grace or passive-aggressive methods.
Something about these strategies needs to be addressed, because they are blocking your way forward. Maybe they’re inauthentic or outdated. Or maybe you’re not standing up for yourself (distorted Libra can be the people pleaser). The square to Mercury means the key message/messenger will draw your attention to this failing strategy. There may be tension between verbal boundaries versus being liked, or strict rules that challenge your current attempts at a social or relationship solution.
Where are your relationship strategies out of balance? Where do you need to be more authentic? What is the message from the past telling you?
Venus/Jupiter
Here is the aspect of abundance – more of what you want and love. Watch for an opportunity involving relationships, money, values and self-esteem. Optimism and a sense of adventure (Jupiter) boosts your chances of attracting (Venus) something favourable. Or, for some, this could be a moment of pure luck. It’s exuberant and asks that you have faith in love, life and yourself. Venus in Sag is about reaching into the unknown – something/someone you’ve never encountered before could be the key to a beautiful new beginning.
Remember that Jupiter is the promise, not the guarantee. In order to make the most of this, you’ll have to expand on what’s being promised. And, because Sagittarius is the sign of exploration, you’ll have to step outside your comfort zone.
Note that Venus rules Libra, so this connects to Pallas in Libra. Jupiter’s “more” does not mean “more of the same.” As you encounter this lovely gift, consider how you can change your relationship, financial or self-esteem strategies. Here’s a chance to do it differently and better.

January 15th, 2019: Difficult Social Battles
Sun in Capricorn square Pallas in Libra (25 deg)
Social (Libra) strategies (Pallas) are challenged by the rules of the establishment (or manager/father/boss/judge). Pallas always suggests some kind of battle (she’s named after Pallas Athena, the goddess of wisdom who wore armor) but in Libra, the fight is discreet and sheathed in clever words and a polite facade. Nonetheless, these strategies can be ultra-effective if deployed with skill (the argument that’s won with diplomacy or the tension that’s diffused with social engineering).
The Capricorn Sun will illuminate the issue while blocking the effectiveness of carefully balanced solutions. Rules will not allow for compromise, or one person may refuse to play the game as they lower the hammer. Today it will be difficult to succeed if you’re trying to win while coming out unscathed (and still looking like a nice person). Win-win will not be possible.
Accept that there will be friction and be prepared to deal with someone’s power trip or rigid boundaries.
