  • Sun in Scorpio opposite Juno Rx in Taurus (25 deg)

Juno Rx in Taurus is a review of the essentials in a relationship agreement – the security basics, the desire for stability, the money. When the Sun opposes Juno Rx, we see a possible ending or result brought on by that review. The Sun will illuminate a key issue from the depths of Scorpio (the stuff beneath the surface) and since Juno has been Rx in Taurus since October 24th, part of the agreement/contract is ready to be unearthed.

Taurus is the secure foundation and routine. Scorpio is the depths and the death/rebirth of that routine. Today we dig into the heart of a relationship contract and see what’s really there.

Hello there friends. It’s been an active November with Uranus (awakenings, change, evolution) retrograde shifting from steady Taurus back on November 6, to re-enter pioneering Aries for the rest of the year. Unexpected changes, breakdowns and possible breakthroughs are bound to occur in the areas where we thought we were strong, stable and comfortably settled. After a year […]

November 2nd, 2018: Waning Sextile and Jupiter Opposes Juno

by  •

  • Scorpio Sun square Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (9 deg)

  • Waning Sextile between the Virgo Moon and Scorpio Sun (10 deg)

  • Jupiter in Scorpio opposite Juno Rx in Taurus (28 deg)

Waning Sextile

The Sun/BML square shines a dark light on female empowerment, rebellion and alienation. Being on the outside for not acting the way a woman “should” or for expressing taboo issues of female sexuality may be themes, with a tension that encourages the expression of ego and purpose. This can trigger the expression of woman’s power, but it won’t be easy and there will be a lot of resistance from others. BML’s destructive side (jealousy/vengeance) may come out.

Fortunately, this aspect is also part of the Waning Sextile with the Virgo Moon, which offers solutions via subtle refinements and attention to detail. You can make things better and progress naturally if you’re aware of the little things – the seemingly inconsequential but important words, the small but vital adjustments/improvements that need to be made. Overall, your goal is to take what’s dark/intense/taboo and refine it.

Jupiter/Juno

The Jupiter/Juno opposition presents the second of two oppositions in Scorpio/Taurus. Juno was Jupiter’s wife, and she was faithful to him despite his consistent philandering. Especially in the Fixed sign of Taurus, she represents the unshakable commitment.

When she opposes Jupiter, the ideals of/desire for expansion in that commitment will be at odds with the agreement itself. This is a key turning point between partners, but it’s not new -the issue may have emerged around August 3rd with the first opposition. One partner may be after deep transformation of the partnership while the other wants things to remain as is. This final opposition (with Juno Rx) suggests a re-evaluation of what was previously fixed. Material resources, set routines or security may be issues.

In general terms, this can represent a massive change or ending in any agreement (personal or professional). The enduring partnership must evolve or die.

October 25th, 2018: Sorting Through the Full Moon’s Fallout

by  •

  • Moon in Taurus square Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (8 deg)

  • Moon in Taurus trine Vesta in Capricorn (13 deg)

  • Moon in Taurus sextile Neptune Rx in Pisces (13 deg)

  • Moon in Taurus square Mars in Aquarius (17 deg)

Moon/BML indicates tension between familiar scenarios versus what’s radical and uncomfortable. The Moon is a classic expression of female energy – mother. BML is the opposite – the outcast, the woman who breaks the rules. In mythology, Lilith is associated with the death of children, so when she is in hard aspect to the Moon in Taurus, there may be tension between fertile and destructive scenarios.

This tension will peak with the Moon’s square to Mars- the buildup of anger/impatience (with a fixed situation) that finally results in jarring action. But before this, the Moon’s smooth aspects to Vesta and Neptune are an opportunity to focus (Vesta) on what matters most. What are you attempting to grow? Neptune adds a hint of creativity and transcendence – a whisper that there’s more to this than what you see in front of you.

But the main energies will be the two squares, which can push you to question the value of what you have. This will take you back to yesterday’s Taurus Full Moon – those results may have been jarring, but they revealed truths about a relationship, your values or your resources. Now, you’re sorting through the fallout.

Taurus Full Moon: Good Grief

by  • 

I had a moment last week, not one of my clearer ones, even though it yielded some good, profound realizations. I had been interacting with a lot of people in grief energy, which I in turn thought was mine, which is always tricky. So, for some time, I went deep into the energy of grief. […]

  • Juno Rx re-enters Taurus

After her brief Gemini ingress (starting on September 29th) Juno Rx has now returned to Taurus. This is a shift from multiple, flexible choices and info (Gemini) to to a fixed focus on what’s already known (Taurus).

Juno is about contracts and relationship agreements. In Gemini, there was something new to consider (a new agreement, a new angle to an existing agreement, a new partnership). But when she stationed Rx at 0 deg Gemini (October 12th) there were questions and revisions required. What was new was not quite acceptable, so now we go back to a safer, more certain place. Juno in Taurus is the absolute commitment and focus on material security.

But Juno will be Rx until December 23rd, so what’s known/safe will also be up for revision. Perhaps a key resource (money?) needs to be reviewed before the new options can be implemented.

As Juno retrogrades back through Taurus (she will station direct at 20 deg) consider what you thought was a sure thing. There’s a set part of a contract that requires your attention, and this may refer back to September 28th. It could be solid, or maybe something has to change.

Juno will re-enter Gemini on February 10th, 2019, and the new agreement can move forward.

Full Moon in Taurus: The Surprise That’s Not Really A Surprise

by  • 

Taurus Full Moon.jpg

The October 24th Full Moon (1 deg Taurus) conjoins Uranus Rx, so you know this ending/result is going to be a tad disruptive.

Uranus always brings a surprise or liberation, although it may be less so with a Full Moon because this is a result – it’s not coming out of nowhere. Moon/Uranus opposes Venus Rx in Scorpio (which conjoins the Sun) and Venus rules this Moon. So the surprise will involve relationships, money or values with an emphasis on what’s best for you – what contributes to or undermines your security.

Venus in Scorpio has already opposed Uranus once (September 12th, 2018) and now she’s Rx and doing it again. (although technically her second opposition won’t be exact until October 31st). So this really is a repeat – you’ve been here before. You’ve heard the call to liberation before.

It could be a disruptive ending or an unexpected (and beneficial) gift. You never know with Uranus, although the hints have been laid out since September 12th.

What’s more, this Full Moon/Venus/Uranus will square the South Node in Aquarius and North Node in Leo. A square to the Nodes means this is a pivotal issue. Again, you’ve been here before and had an opportunity to turn this corner. Venus previously squared the Nodes on September 16th, and while her next, exact square square won’t be until October 30th the energy is still part of this Full Moon. Something you wanted/loved either kept you from moving forward or you needed to manifest it so you could move forward. Think back to September. How did your values support or block your progress? Can you carry what you want forward, or would it be better to cut that cord?

South Node in Aquarius is the past – moving on from detachment, alienation, rebellion to the future (North Node) which is about finding your center in an area that makes you proud. The rulers of the Nodes (Sun and Uranus) oppose each other, which means this is a significant crossroads – you’re at the point where you can choose to step into the light (the place where you have pride) or you can stay on the edge and remain detached. North Node in Leo asks you to care about yourself, your talents and your audience. It’s not “cool” or laid back but sometimes you have to step up and put yourself out there.

But there is a note of stability, and that’s Saturn in Capricorn making a trine to the Moon and Uranus. You can integrate these changes if you follow the rules or apply the focus. Uranus and Saturn means new rules but the trine delivers them in a natural manner. The key is focus, focus, focus – you must apply some sort of discipline to what’s happening. Do your work.
