  • Moon in Aquarius square Mercury in Scorpio (12 deg)

  • Moon in Aquarius conjunct Mars (13 deg)

  • Moon in Aquarius trine Ceres in Libra (19 deg)

The Moon’s square to Mercury can trigger tense realizations- detached energy will illuminate what’s obscured. Communication can feel uncomfortable, as deep observations clash with the need to remain distant. When the Moon conjoins Mars, watch for a spark that lights a rebellious or unusual urge. The pull of Scorpio’s depths will be forcefully denied. Now is not the time to look for intimacy – the mood is restless and a bit crazy.

If you’re aware of what’s happening, this energy can be channeled in a healthy way via the Moon’s trine to Ceres. Mutual freedom can be nurtured in a relationship. This is about giving the other person room to breath – stepping back and keeping your touch light can actually bring you closer.

October 14th, 2018: Taboo and Sacred

  • Mercury in Scorpio square Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (7 deg)

  • Venus Rx in Scorpio sextile Vesta in Capricorn (9 deg)

Mercury/Black Moon Lilith

Mercury/BML suggests Scorpio’s secrets or taboo truths conflict with BML in Aquarius’ radical lady. While Lilith herself is about the taboo (and unpalatable truths), in this case, what’s spoken or understood about her will be discordant. Perhaps too much is revealed about a Lilith issue. Or, perhaps a BML-type person speaks her truth and it comes across as too heavy or too horrific.

Yes, BML’s energy can naturally be “too much” under the best of circumstances, but when she makes a hard aspect to Mercury, her message is extra challenging. Keep this in mind if you’re thinking of communicating things that others don’t want to hear – this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t, only that you should be aware of today’s energies.

Venus/Vesta

Venus Rx in harmony with Vesta might smooth things out a bit, or least remind you of what’s most important.

An area of Venus- themed (money, relationships, self-esteem) investigation or review will be enhanced by Vesta’s strict (Capricorn) focus. You can zero in what really matters while tuning out the white noise of social discord or disapproving chatter. Venus’ energy is elevated and Scorpio’s darkness becomes the sacrament – Vesta (the temple) is about purity of intent, so you can consider what boundaries or rules (Capricorn) should be applied to what matters most. Do you treat yourself and your resources (financial and emotional) like they are sacred? Only a select few are allowed to enter the temple.

Remember that when Scorpio’s energy is used correctly, it too is quite selective. Only those who respect the power and enhance chances of survival/evolution are allowed to get close.

October 1st, 2018: Black Moon Lilith Conjunct Mars in Aquarius

by  •

  • Mars conjunct Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (6 deg)

This is volatile energy. Mars is the activator, and in this case, what’s being activated is Lilith’s agenda of female rebellion and empowerment. But we must remember that she is feared and disliked by many – she is the outsider, especially in Aquarius. So power and liberation will come at a price.

Anger is part of BML’s vibe, because she was cast out. This is the anger of not being accepted, of being repressed, of being denied. Mars is, of course, about anger. So rest assured that what comes out today will be fuelled by this. Mars is also male energy and sexuality, so we may have a clash of the sexes or confrontation over a sexual issue. Lilith could act out by expressing herself in ways that threaten men. Or, she could be threatened herself.

The best-case scenario is an opportunity to take action and express part of yourself that’s honest and makes others uncomfortable. This can be about liberation, but expect resistance or even anger from some quarters. Some interpretations of BML try to paint a pretty face on her, but in my experience she is not pretty. Even when her power is being expressed in the most constructive way, there will be people who react strongly and unpleasantly to her, because she is strong and unpleasant (although she can be powerfully seductive).

Dawn Bodrogi said it best in this post from her site, The Inner Wheel:

“…I’ve yet to discover a true positive side to her aside from the raw power which emerges from her intimate connection to occult abilities, and her propensity to distribute post-rage clarity…the only way we can tap into the great power of BML is to sacrifice our fears, terrors and hungers.”

And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with “not pretty.” Not everything is pretty. Not everything is positive. Sometimes you have to go dark.

If you feel this conjunction (if you have anything from 5 to 6 deg of the Fixed signs) consider what needs to be liberated and why others might find it unacceptable or uncomfortable. You may be confronted, or you may be the one doing the confronting.

September 29th, 2018: Speaking Out

by  •

  • Libra Sun trine Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (5 deg)

  • Gemini Moon trine Mars in Aquarius (5 deg)

  • Gemini Moon trine Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (6 deg)

  • Gemini Moon trine Libra Sun (Waning Trine- 6 deg)

  • Juno enters Gemini

Speak Out

A Waning Trine between the Gemini Moon and Libra Sun includes a trine to Mars and Lilith in Aquarius, creating a Grand Air Trine (a smooth circuit of energy). Information (Gemini) is shared in a social context and accepted by others (but probably not everyone). This involves BML themes of women’s power, anger/violence and controversial sexual issues – the woman who stands out and says what many don’t want to hear.

At this moment, her passionate words and anger have a social outlet. Note that Aquarius is the group and Libra is one-on-one. Her words come out naturally (a hallmark of the trine). Now is the time – good if you want to speak about something (especially a relationship issue) that wouldn’t normally be accepted.

Juno

Juno into Gemini hi-lights flexible partnership agreements. More than one choice is key and fast-moving communication becomes essential. This is not the time to keep silent, and new agreements could manifest. Juno in Gemini urges you to exchange thoughts with another – the essence of the contract is a constant influx of fresh ideas that are shared.

However, Juno will station Rx at 0 deg Gemini on Oct 12th, returning to Taurus on Oct 24th. So right out of the gate there will be reasons to question new choices/ideas. The retreat into Taurus suggests a reevaluation of the basics of the partnership: ground yourself in what you already know before adding anything else.

Juno will station direct on Dec 23rd (at 20 deg) and will return to Gemini on Feb 10th, 2019. This is when you can confidently move forward with what you and another have discussed. Before this date, assume that there will be backtracking, questions and the exposure of additional layers.

Juno will exit Gemini for Cancer on Apr 20th, 2019.

September 26th, 2018: Mars Conjunct the South Node

by  •

  • Mars conjunct the Aquarius South Node (4 deg)

This is the third meeting between Mars and the South Node, so there should be a sense of the past coming to a head. Actions (Mars) will be key: what you are leaving behind or breaking away from? This can go back to June 8th, 2018 (the first conjunction) and July 20th, 2018 (the second conjunction when Mars was Rx).

There may have been repeated efforts (or perhaps a repeated conflict) and this final conjunction could net you results. You may have to confront (for the last time) an issue that’s been particularly challenging.

Since Mars is also making a sextile to the Leo North Node, anything you do has the potential to propel you forward. But the key will be how you handle action, assertiveness or anger. Ultimately, this is about doing what’s unique – activating your liberation or individuality in a way that fires up your pride. What lies ahead should be about something you can celebrate.

September 24th, 2018: Mercury Trine the South Node

  • Mercury in Libra trine the Aquarius South Node (4 deg)

Mercury/South Node (part of today’s Full Moon) indicates that some compromise or agreement is possible. The South Node is about what’s habitual or culminating from the past. It’s already in existence (while the North Node is still developing). So although you’ll be dealing with this Full Moon’s difficult Chiron and Saturn energies, there will be an area where it feels natural to communicate.

It will likely be something from the past and the Air sign emphasis means objective observation (keep it light) will work best. Aquarius is about the group while Libra is one-on-one, so you should be able to translate a big-picture issue into something more personal. Mercury also makes a sextile to the Leo North Node, so you can go further with whatever is discussed. The conversation’s not over.

In general, this aspect encourages you to talk about it, no matter how challenging things are.

September 23rd, 2018: Painfully Polite

  • Sun in Libra opposite Chiron Rx in Aries (0 deg)

  • Mercury in Libra square Saturn in Capricorn (2 deg)

  • Mercury in Libra trine Mars in Aquarius (3 deg)

Sun/Chiron illuminates a sore spot or an area requiring unusual courage. You may be reluctant to step up because it’s socially unacceptable. You may want to avoid the issue, or the issue may be projected (it’s not really about you). But Chiron in Aries demands a confrontation. This will be a continuation of yesterday’s Mercury/Chiron opposition.

Speaking of Mercury, the square to Saturn suggests excruciating politeness. Mercury square Saturn can manifest as stiff, halting words. And when Libra is added there is a fear of saying something that’s not acceptable. This will probably be related to the Chiron opposition- if you do the wrong thing, it might hurt. There will be an imbalance between courage and social harmony. Saturn’s rules can’t be broken, but something still needs to be confronted. Libra is about taking that impossible mix and somehow finding the middle ground.

Not great for spontaneous ideas, although the trine to Mars can present an outlet, if you’re paying attention. Watch for a less obvious but still significant way to get your point across. Mars trine Mercury is about words with an easy flow of passion and force, although the shadow of Saturn will clamp down on some of that. Nonetheless, you can still speak out as long as certain rules are respected.

All of the above aspects are part of the September 24th Full Moon, and can be considered advance influences.
