February 7th, 2019: No Going Back

  • Sun in Aquarius sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (18 deg)

  • Mercury in Aquarius sextile Mars in Aries (25 deg)

  • Uranus in Aries opposite Pallas in Libra (29 deg)

Sun/Jupiter delivers buoyant energy that encourages you to have faith in something unique (including yourself). It’s ok to stand out, be yourself or take a risk, and judgements should be almost non-existent. Aquarius is very open-minded and Jupiter (in positive aspect) is all about benevolence.

Mercury/Mars adds to the above with assertive but not pushy words. The harmony of the sextile adds Mars’ aggressiveness in a manageable way, encouraging outspoken information that is delivered in an acceptable manner. Combined with Sun/Jupiter, today’s influences favour exploration, the communication of fresh ideas standing up for yourself with easy confidence.

However, Uranus (ruler of Aquarius) opposite Pallas does suggest that liberating moves will trigger some imbalances. Pallas in Libra’s polite social strategies will be upended, or even abruptly abandoned. Not a deal-breaker, but consider if any relationship plans, compromises or solutions have outlived their usefulness.

Note that this opposition (a culmination) takes places at 29 degrees (the final degree). This strongly points to the end of a social issue – you may be liberated or surprised, but either way there’s no going back. If this makes you uneasy, know that Jupiter’s influence suggests that this is a good thing.

January 29th, 2019: A Flash of Clarity

  • Sun conjunct Mercury in Aquarius (9 deg)

  • Mars in Aries sextile Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (19 deg)

  • Uranus in Aries sextile Vesta in Aquarius (28 deg)

The Sun/Mercury conjunction is a “Full Moon” phase in the Sun/Mercury cycle – a superior conjunction that delivers an answer or result. In Aquarius, we can expect it to be surprising, clear and possibly disruptive. A light will be shone on all matters involving the collective and your relationship to society.

The last Sun/Mercury conjunction occurred on November 27th, 2018 at 5 deg Sagittarius, when Mercury was Rx. This was an inferior conjunction- the “New Moon” part of the cycle and a new beginning. What was introduced at that time may be connected to the results you see today.

The Mars/BML sextile is a harmonious blend of male energy (Mars) and the dangerous, rebellious woman. She is energized by Mars, which could mean she uses male energy/sexual energy to her advantage. Or, she uses conflict and anger to power her forward (smoothly), drawing the collective’s attention to her taboo issues. Uranus adds oomph to Vesta’s focus on independence and liberation- Uranus (ruler of Aquarius) adds gentle encouragement to the devotion of whatever’s on the outside.

Combined with Sun/Mercury, today’s influences all favour the outsider, the rebel or the detached observer. Today is an excellent day to gain clarity and perspective on a difficult issue because emotions will be less pronounced than logic. Stepping outside the lines is a possibility, with innovative flashes and surges of quirky or shocking energy.

Aquarius Season: Center or Fringe?

by  •

The Sun enters Aquarius on January 20th, kicking off the season of the individualist. This Aquarius season will be defined by the Full Moon eclipse in Leo , occuring at the same degree as the Sun’s ingress. So we have contrasting themes – Leo passion/drama versus Aquarius detachment and logic. The Leo drive for appreciation/attention versus the Aquarian position on the fringe. Leo’s trend-setter versus the Aquarian drive to buck the trends.

But whether we’re talking about the center or the fringe, both these signs stand out – neither is one of the crowd. So this season could be about the ways you express your individuality. Have you been playing it cool and denying your desire to be appreciated? Or have you been wrapped up in ego games while a liberating, left-hand path beckons?

Aquarius is also about the future. There can be a vision of a better future – this sign can be highly idealistic as the innovative (or bizarre) idea of what’s coming up is better than what was or is. But if distorted, this sign’s energy can be about extreme bitterness and alienation, with zero hope for what lies ahead (the apocalyptic flag-waver).

But whether the future is viewed is hope or nihilism, detachment is always the driver. This is primarily an intellectual sign – the ability to stand back and analyze enables some truly wonderful (or frightening) leaps, unencumbered by sentiment.

This doesn’t mean Aquarians don’t have feelings, of course. But there is the ability to step back and view everything from a distance.

As Aquarius season progresses, consider what might happen if you stepped back from a particularly troubling issue – what solutions might emerge if you experimented with taking your feelings out of the equation (this is not impossible- try writing the issue down and only including the facts). This is an experiment, btw, not a set of instructions on how to deal with all issues.

Here are the aspects the Sun in Aquarius will make:

  • Jan 20th/21st: Full Moon eclipse in Leo (0 deg)

  • Jan 29th: conjunction with Mercury (9 deg)

  • Feb 4th: New Moon (15 deg)

  • Feb 7th: sextile to Jupiter in Sagittarius (18 deg)

  • Feb 9th: conjunct Black Moon Lilith (20 deg)

  • Feb 15th: inconjunct to the Cancer North Node (26 deg)

  • Feb 18th: sextile to Uranus in Aries (29 deg)

  • Feb 18th: trine Pallas in Libra (29 deg)

  • Feb 18th: Pisces ingress

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.
