Creating The Way Through The Heart | Starcana Cosmic Dirt
Good day friend! Sun (ego, identity) and Mercury (thoughts, communications, short journeys) will both bid farewell from grounded Taurus on Tuesday May 21, to enter curious Gemini. 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 […]
May 17th, 2019: Saturn Rx Square Vesta in Aries
Saturn Rx in Capricorn square Vesta in Aries (20 deg)
What are you focusing on? Do you feel blocked or fixated? Saturn and Vesta are both about focus, but Vesta is absolute devotion while Saturn is rules and restrictions. When the two form a crisis square, the restrictions (Saturn) on your freedom (Aries) can make the passionate urge to break away that much stronger. This is about being penned in and desperately gazing at what’s on the other side. Your sacred flame (Vesta) is being extinguished.
But is it? Saturn’s limits are always about drawing your attention to an essential matter. A new area of passion/impulse needs to be defined or needs more work. That responsibility will be a crisis, especially since Saturn is Rx – you’re revisiting this. Do you have to try harder? If it’s truly sacred, it can’t be extinguished. Vesta thrives on limits and the tension challenges you to burn brighter. Just make sure that you’re not so focused on breaking away that you forget about your responsibilities.

Waxing Trine between the Virgo Moon and Taurus Sun (23 deg)
Venus in Aries sextile Mars in Gemini (28 deg)
Today should be a basically harmonious day. The Waxing Trine helps you integrate improvements into what’s already been established. Just because it’s steady doesn’t mean it can’t stand a bit of refining. This energy enables the application of a few tweaks to what’s already working, so it can work even better.
Taurus is ruled by Venus and Venus’ sextile to Mars supports what’s happening with a gentle resonance between actions and what you want. Make a choice (Gemini) but do it lightly- assert your information/facts (lightly) and watch it as it manifests what you want (Venus). Venus/Mars is light, quick energy so you’re not insisting on anything. One little push is all it takes. But the Waxing Trine in the Earth signs says this can result in something real.
The Venus/Mars connection can be flirtatious and a bit cheeky – Mars in Gemini is assertive teasing or verbal challenges, and Venus in Aries likes this (it’s hot). But what starts off as a spark can solidify into something more, via the Waxing Trine.

Here is an opportunity to advance the May 4th New Moon beginnings. With a bit of effort, you can nurture a seed or solid beginning so it grows into something comforting, nourishing and emotionally satisfying. No matter what happened during the New Moon, it’s time to move forward using your needs as fuel. Sounds easy enough – what do you really need? But you have to act on this because no one will deliver it to you. Family, childhood or mother may be involved.
Venus
Venus/Pluto is the crisis of want versus power. The compulsive attraction or obsessive drive to get what you want NOW (no matter the cost) has more behind it. On the surface, it looks like pure Aries competition, passion or impulse. But it’s not pure- there are deeper motivations, an urge to maintain power and fear of losing that power.
This is the corner you turn as you confront the shadow behind the desire. You may be dealing with manipulation or you may be trying to “convince” someone to give you what you want/love. Pushing forward, especially when the other party is reluctant, is a red flag.
Jupiter’s trine to Venus can greatly amplify the Pluto-driven compulsion. While there may be a hot opportunity to earn/create/achieve, proceed very carefully – again, check those background motivations. On the other hand, Jupiter can help you get past the square to Pluto if you hook into the bigger perspective – elevate yourself above the fear of loss and look at the undiscovered country that lies ahead. Is there something new to learn or explore? Jupiter/Venus is hopeful and individual freedom is honoured.
Jupiter and Pluto are Rx (retrograde), so you’ve been here before.

May 7th, 2019: Venus in Aries Square Saturn Rx
Venus in Aries square Saturn Rx in Capricorn (20 deg)
Continuing yesterday’s events from Venus’ square to the Nodes, , Venus’ square to the South Node ruler (Saturn) can present specific blocks that restrict the movement of this passionate new issue. There may be a struggle to get what you want as well as an intensified desire to have it (you want what’s being denied).
This is a South Node issue – something from the past must be resolved. An old rule is keeping you in check. You can’t avoid it and there may even be a responsibility that needs to be attended to (the extra work you have to do to get what you want). Perhaps you’re finally confronting an old fear or tradition that says you’re not good enough/you can’t have this/you need to control yourself.
This is a crisis that offers the possibility of breakthrough once you turn the corner. But you’ll have to do the work – moving past a fear can be just as much as work as dealing with a responsibility.
