  • Venus in Sagittarius trine Chiron RX in Aries (2°)

  • Juno enters Libra

Venus/Chiron is upbeat and healing energy. Exploring new areas of what you want or love can help you deal with wounds in a natural, unforced way. Independence, courage and faith in the future are emphasized; don’t be afraid to take a chance on something desirable. You may find that your vulnerabilities or differences fuel exploration and even add to your appeal.

Juno is comfortable in Libra, the sign of partnerships. One-on-one agreements and issues of fidelity can be explored with detached fairness. Equality in agreements will be very important. But if there are any imbalances in a relationship, this transit can bring them to light. 

Consider if you’re a partner or subordinate.

Note that Juno will station retrograde in Libra, so she will be in this sign for an unusually long time (until September 2020, dates and degrees below). This tells us that there are some significant Issues around partnership power balances that need to be worked out.

Venus’ Transit of Sagittarius

Venus enters Sagittarius on November 1st at 4:24PM EDT. Relationships, finances and values call for an open-minded approach to the future. You’re turning towards the horizon: what’s next?

This transit is about exploring opportunities. If it’s different, exotic or hopeful and you think this could be something you want, it’s Venus in Sag. This energy is excellent for broadening your perspective on love and self-esteem (you are worth more and you can attract more). It can also indicate matters of justice, wisdom or religion applied to Venus themes: what’s true, what’s legal and where can you put your faith. 

Keeping in mind that Mercury stationed RX in Scorpio on October 31st, there’s a contrast between internal reviews and investigations (the past) versus external expansion and attraction of what you want (the future). When you combine the two, you peer into the background of a situation while expanding its potential.

Sagittarius is the sign of truth and knowledge, and of course Mercury backing through Scorpio will take you on an intense, intellectual journey. There’s an opportunity to gain tremendous understanding about a Venus issue. Maybe you uncover secrets that give you fresh perspective and truth about your love-life. Maybe you do some research about shared finances and uncover valuable resources that you can expand on. Maybe you have the taboo conversation that teaches you more about what you want, leading to increased freedom.

This is a time of truths that are uncomfortable (Scorpio) but expansive (Sag).

Here are the aspects Venus will make (Venus will enter Capricorn on November 25th).

October 30th, 2019: Mercury Conjunct Venus

  • Mercury in Scorpio conjunct Venus (27°)

Words are deeply seductive and magnetic, or thoughts can zero in on what you really, really want. Buried or taboo desires are defined and given a voice, so this is great for clarifying essential details about relationships, finances, intimacy or values. Perhaps something secret is finally being communicated.

But note that Mercury will station retrograde at this degree on October 31st. So there are more layers to uncover or reasons to pause and reconsider what’s been said.

Don’t disregard this aspect, because it’s potent and truthful. But do keep in mind that much more will be revealed. Wait for the level below the words to be exposed. And then the next level, and the next…

October 29th, 2019: Venus Conjunct Pallas

  • Venus in Scorpio conjunct Pallas (25°)

This is the aspect of deep or secretive relationship strategies. Pallas (named after Pallas Athena, the warrior goddess of wisdom) is all about strategy, seeing patterns, connecting the dots and fighting certain battles. When she unites with ultra- feminine Venus in Scorpio, we have strategic and seductive energy that is focused on attracting exactly what you want.

There is nothing innocent about this, but that’s not a bad thing. While it can be manipulative if misused, it’s really about accessing your deepest resources (financial or emotional) and using that raw, possibly taboo, power to get what you want. Scorpio is about survival, so the stakes may be high (even if it’s not literal life and death). 

This aspect gives you an opportunity to use your intuitive wisdom. There may be a sexual undertone here-is an intimate relationship the place for strategy? In some cases, yes. Sometimes you need to plan what you’re going to give and what you’re going to keep. If this is about shared finances, the same issues apply. Look at where you’re vulnerable and where your power lies.

Venus/Pallas attracts by focusing on the pattern that serves her best.

October 25th, 2019: Some Of What You Want

by  •

  • Venus in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (20°)

  • Jupiter in Sagittarius conjunct Ceres (22°)

Venus in Pluto-ruled Scorpio, in harmonious aspect to Pluto, is given an extra boost of quiet power. Here we have deeply private or subterranean wants, resources or values that are intensified by the breakdown and transformation of structures. This sounds dramatic, and it is! But Scorpio’s hidden nature and the gentle energy of this aspect ensure that events will happen imperceptibly but potently. It doesn’t have to be loud to be effective. 

Excellent for confirming that you’re on the right track as you deepen a source of intimacy, self-care or inner exploration.

Jupiter/Ceres indicates expansive nurturing and/or an expansive agreement. Looking at the Ceres myth, this crop goddess’ daughter was taken by the king of the underworld (Pluto) and in retaliation she allowed all the crops to wither and the people to starve. Jupiter stepped in and encouraged her to make a deal with Pluto-her daughter was allowed to be with her, above ground, for part of the year and the crops would grow during this time.

Not everything she wanted, but a crucial part (rebirth) of her cycle and certainly better than nothing. Consider how a real- world version of this deal might be functioning in your life. You probably won’t get everything you want, but a conjunction with Jupiter in the sign he rules is the best possible scenario-the growth of something new, something to look forward to, something that will continue to expand. 

We must also consider how the Venus/Pluto aspect factors into this: even with the gentle sextile, there’s an all-or nothing vibe that will have to be toned down due to circumstances (Pluto didn’t get everything he wanted either). Nonetheless, today’s overall vibe is abundance.

In mundane matters, this aspect can indicate increased learning/wisdom concerning mothering, food issues or nurturing. Consider where you might need to make concessions in these matters to encourage new growth.
