  • Moon in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn (14 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces (14 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio square Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (19 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)

  • Moon Void of Course in Scorpio (21 deg 5:38 pm EST)

  • Moon enters Sagittarius and VOC ends (Jan 29th 9:32 am EST)

A rather quiet but heavy Scorpio-flavoured day. The sextile to Saturn can confirm a deep commitment in a gentle way. This is subtle but serious – a nudge that there’s something you cannot escape because it’s inevitable. The trine to Neptune can deepen things even more as Neptune dissolves limits and Scorpio pushes the limits. So we have a dive into something profound and possibly dark. But Neptune makes the transition seamless – it will feel natural to submerge yourself.

On the way down, the Moon squares BML. She is the Moon’s “opposite” – the point furthest from the Moon. In Aquarius she is the dark rebel woman and sh*t disturber who raises uncomfortable issues about gender and sexual dynamics. When she squares the Scorpio Moon, watch for shadows behind the rebellion. The angry woman may have shadows of her own (especially involving the interplay between the alternative and traditional feminine) or she may be confronting deeper and uglier truths about her position on the edge of society. The square is a crisis.

What’s waiting at the bottom? A sextile to Pluto (Scorpio’s ruler). The last aspect before the Moon goes VOC, this sextile is another gentle nudge. This time you’re reminded of the benefits of transformation which include a total loss and rebirth. Something must die before you can evolve. Nobody said Scorpio was easy.

The sextile (again) should make this process relatively painless, so as you enter VOC territory you can rest and contemplate what you let go of or what left you. It should feel “ok” as in “this is the way it’s meant to be.” There may even be peace.

The Moon’s entrance to Sag should lighten the mood considerably, with a fiery surge of new possibilities – your reward for braving the Scorpio depths.

January 27th, 2019: Questions for the Outsider

  • Third Quarter Square between the Scorpio Moon and Aquarius Sun (7 deg)

  • Vesta in Aquarius trine Pallas in Libra (27 deg)

The Third Quarter Square can raise some uncomfortable questions about a social ideal, drive for liberation or detachment. Now you need to look beneath the issue you’re currently viewing from a distance. There may be unpleasant truths or shadows that need to be confronted, but this will raise some pertinent questions about your group or place in society (even if you’re on the fringe).

Consider the dark side of liberation or escape – have you pulled away from something too quickly? What are your motivations for detaching? With any freedom comes loss, and this could be what you’re looking at now. If something intense is simmering beneath the surface, know that you can’t maintain the cool cover forever. Eventually you’ll have to dive in and feel, which will give you a brand new perspective on your connection to everyone else.

Vesta/Pallas can help you put some of this in perspective. Vesta in Aquarius is devotion to personal liberation, and when it harmonizes with Pallas in Libra, you can view your freedom in the context of its impact on your one-on-one relationships. Social strategies can work with independence – you don’t have to be isolated and others may support your solitary quest.

January 21st, 2019: Pain and Healing

by  • 

John Everett Millais

John Everett Millais

  • Mars in Aries square Saturn in Capricorn (13 deg)

  • Chiron in Pisces trine Ceres in Scorpio (28 deg)

Mars/Saturn

Mars/Saturn is blocked actions. There is nothing easy about this one – you’ll want to push forward immediately (Aries) but a rule, limit or authority (Saturn) will challenge you. You may experience this as coming to a full stop, or being pressured to work harder when your energy is limited. But the square also means there’s a corner to turn – it’s an active aspect so you’re not meant to sit there and do nothing.

However, you can’t charge ahead or openly express your anger/passion. You’ll have to show restraint, obey a higher law and dig in to do the work that’s demanded. Saturn always means there’s more work, so consider what your duty is. Where do you have to focus? When Mars in Aries is controlled, the output can be incredibly effective. Strength increases as you encounter resistance – you build fortitude and muscle. But you’ll have to slow down and be patient.

True courage (Aries) will consist of moving forward (with control) in the face of obstacles.

Chiron/Ceres

Chiron trine Ceres brings a smooth, deep flow of assistance. Ceres in Scorpio is profound nurturing – nurturing through pain, loss and the darkest moments under the shadow of death (the knowledge that nothing remains forever). Trine Chiron, we have the unconditional acceptance that nurturing often accompanies pain. It can hurt to care for someone. Or, caring for yourself requires total acceptance (and forgiveness of) your wounds.

The blend of pain, healing and nurturing flows together seamlessly, so this awareness might help you deal with the obstructions of Mars/Saturn, which can feel like punishment. Whether you’re encountering physical limits, excess work or a struggle with authority, know that there’s healing available if you open yourself up to it.

January 17th, 2019: Sun in Capricorn Sextile Ceres

  • Capricorn Sun sextile Ceres in Scorpio (27 deg)

The Capricorn Sun energizes Ceres’ fathomless nurturing with structure and focus. Ceres in Scorpio can be demanding, since this sign is all or nothing. So it can be a lot to ask of someone who is giving or receiving (Scorpio has undertones of power and domination). But in this case, a commitment to deep, intensive care is strengthened by the adherence to rules and boundaries (boundaries are especially important to keep Scorpio’s energy in check).

This can also be about having the authority (Capricorn) to care for someone in the most intimate (Scorpio) way.

The sextile can be so easy that you don’t even notice the energies at play, so the commitment to look after someone may emerge without effort. Or, the structure that defines this nurturing may click into place before you realize what’s happening.

However, you can also miss the opportunity as the moment slides by. So it’s possible that there’s a naturally supportive foundation for this demanding energy, but you overlook it. What you need for care and support is right in front of you- all it takes is awareness to activate it.
