  • Sun in Scorpio opposite Juno Rx in Taurus (25 deg)

Juno Rx in Taurus is a review of the essentials in a relationship agreement – the security basics, the desire for stability, the money. When the Sun opposes Juno Rx, we see a possible ending or result brought on by that review. The Sun will illuminate a key issue from the depths of Scorpio (the stuff beneath the surface) and since Juno has been Rx in Taurus since October 24th, part of the agreement/contract is ready to be unearthed.

Taurus is the secure foundation and routine. Scorpio is the depths and the death/rebirth of that routine. Today we dig into the heart of a relationship contract and see what’s really there.

November 14th, 2018: Scorpio Sun Sextile Vesta

  • Sun in Scorpio sextile Vesta in Capricorn (22 deg)

Sun in Scorpio’s depth is gently enhanced with a sextile to Vesta. Vesta’s focus is applied to an already intense issue, with just a touch of emphasis. Think if this as a gentle nudge to look a bit deeper or consider one more layer.

Focus on or devotion to a particular subject should come naturally and easily – nothing will be forced on you. Good for all matters of exclusive concentration.

  • Capricorn Moon sextile Neptune Rx in Pisces (13 deg)

  • Capricorn Moon conjunct Pluto (19 deg)

  • Capricorn Moon sextile Scorpio Sun (20 deg)

Today’s Waxing Sexitle is a point of ease – a chance to integrate the events of November 7th’s Scorpio New Moon. Moon/Neptune loosens the boundaries, allowing you to let go or go deeper. Too, issues of belief can be resolved. The conjunction to Pluto (ruler of Scorpio) adds emphasis to the Sun/Moon sextile- Capricorn’s structure (and Pluto’s power) give you something to work with, so you’re not floundering in Scorpio’s intense waters. You can gain traction around profound issues, a loss, death or deep Shadow work – use this to move forward and make the change.

Today’s energy can help you get comfortable with any deep transformations. You’ll find your footing if you tap into your inner authority or power (Capricorn is the key – be the adult, take responsibility, keep moving forward).

November 11th, 2018: Scorpio Loss and Gain

  • Uranus Rx in Aries opposite Ceres in Libra (29 deg)

  • Ceres enters Scorpio

  • Sun in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (19 deg)

Ceres

The Uranus/Ceres opposition in the final degrees of Aries/Libra suggests an abrupt culmination or result involving the cycle of nurturing.

Ceres (the crop goddess) made a deal with Pluto (King of the Underworld) – he would allow her daughter (whom he had taken) to spend part of the year above ground with her mother. The rest of the year her daughter would be below ground.

In Libra, Ceres was about the exchange of nurturing and balanced/unbalanced agreements. The opposition to Uranus could be a final jolt that corrects an imbalance, ends an agreement or radically changes the dynamics regarding who gives what.

This jolt will lead to Ceres’ trip to the underworld (Pluto-ruled Scorpio). Here, we explore what goes on beneath the surface of nurturing – the inevitable loss or ending that is part of every cycle. And, the resulting rebirth/new life. Ceres in Scorpio may demand that you accept a loss before you can experience regeneration. You may be confronted with the Shadow side of nurturing (the desire for control, the fear of letting go) while also looking at who has the power in certain agreements (Ceres-type agreements involve primal issues that feel like survival). You can also discover power/resilience that you didn’t know you had – buried resources that allow you to move forward, through the cycle.

Ceres will exit Scorpio for Sagittarius on January 25th, 2019.

Sun/Pluto

Adding emphasis to today’s Scorpio flavour, the Scorpio Sun makes a sextile to Pluto. Here is a soft spotlight on an issue of power or transformation. The sextile is a gentle aspect, so the power/evolution that’s highlighted can be expressed effectively but harmoniously. Perhaps the “death” will arrive quietly, or the change you have to accept will manifest easily. Sun/Pluto does indicate the power to permanently transform a situation.

This is also an aspect of success (in business or finances) but with the Ceres influence it would seem that you need to make a strategic agreement, perhaps where you give up some control (to gain what you want).

Hello there friends. It’s been an active November with Uranus (awakenings, change, evolution) retrograde shifting from steady Taurus back on November 6, to re-enter pioneering Aries for the rest of the year. Unexpected changes, breakdowns and possible breakthroughs are bound to occur in the areas where we thought we were strong, stable and comfortably settled. After a year […]

Scorpio New Moon: Managing Energetic Overwhelm

Scorpio rules the deep invisible realms, what the five senses cannot detect, but we “know” and “feel” in our gut – like energy. Energy is invisible, moving around us all the time. That is the truth. Yet we don’t often acknowledge the truth that the funk we’re feeling is actually funky stuff we’re picking up […]

New Moon in Scorpio: Dive In

The November 7th New Moon at 15 deg Scorpio trines Neptune Rx in Pisces. This can give new beginnings a deeply idealistic or healing quality. Trines in water signs indicate events that flow smoothly and easily, especially when Neptune (which dissolves boundaries) is involved.

What begins should roll forward naturally. Or, you may slip into some deep waters before you know what’s happening. Scorpio energy is profound, dark and completely honest: you sink past the secrets and get to the truth.

However, it is encouraging that Jupiter in Scorpio is making an exact trine to the Cancer North Node on this same day and both are trining Chiron Rx in Pisces (29 deg). So there is a Grand Water Trine that encourages you to move forward (North Node) towards a place of inner security and emotional authenticity – this is where you can access some serious healing as you revisit an old wound (Chiron Rx). Jupiter expands the issue so you can’t miss it.

The North Node is ruled by this Moon, so what begins will be an important part of this entire Nodal transit through Cancer/Capricorn. Which is to say, moving past external, rigid definitions of security (Capricorn) towards internal, nurturing security. What really matters, in your gut. What feels (Cancer) real. I’ll write more about this Nodal transit on the day of the ingress (November 6th).

All this Scorpio action might feel a bit heavy, especially if you’re not comfortable with “the feels.” The New Moon could herald increased access to intense emotions, or an event that swamps you with more honesty than you’re prepared for. But it’s all good – sometimes you have to dive in and just feel it. Neptune can soften things a bit by diffusing the intensity, and Jupiter trine Chiron Rx (this aspect was exact on November 1st) can lift you past the pain, once you confront it.
