  • Mercury in Gemini sextile Vesta in Aries (27 deg)

Mercury is the ruler of today’s Gemini New Moon so this aspect is particularly relevant.

Vesta is the ultimate or sacred focus. In Aries, it’s focus on self, on something new/passionate. Gently supported by Mercury, here’s a hint that can help you decide which of the multiple choices holds the most promise.

This won’t be a super strong influence, but there will be a nudge in a certain direction- look at what’s most vital or courageous. It will probably be new and may have urgency. This is what you want to choose.

May 29th, 2019: Waning Sextile and Mercury Square Neptune

  • Waning Sextile between the Aries Moon and Gemini Sun (7 deg)

  • Mercury in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces (18 deg)

The Waning Sextile suggests new impulses can accelerate the flow of information or push you to make a choice. There can be an increased sense of urgency to communicate or check out new facts. This will happen smoothly, so the urgency will happen without pressure – you can even ignore this if you want. However, it would be to your benefit to go with the flow and pay attention to anything new/exciting/passionate that’s grabbed your attention.

Having said that, the Mercury/Neptune square can raise some tricky signals. What’s true and what’s not will be difficult to discern. It may be challenging to focus on one issue or deliver a clear message. While Neptune can encourage you to look at/say more (as it dissolves limits) and this can accelerate the flow of the Waning Sexilte, you want to pay attention to the facts. Make sure that the information is accurate, and don’t succumb to the temptation to blur what you’re not certain about.

Only proceed with what makes sense and what’s clear.

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.

May 14th, 2019: Keep it Light and Watch it Grow

  • 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.

May 9th, 2019: Shadow Behind the Fire

Waxing Sextile

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.
