  • Mercury in Pisces square Ceres in Sagittarius (5 deg)

  • Mercury in Pisces conjunct Vesta (5 deg)

  • Mars in Aries conjunct Uranus (29 deg)

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

Mercury/Vesta

The Mercury/Vesta conjunction activates yesterday’s Vesta/Ceres square.

“Vesta in Pisces wants to withdraw and contemplate while Ceres in Sag wants to overwhelm with expansive care and protection. Vesta in Pisces is pure and spiritual (or magical) while Ceres in Sag can trample over sensitivities in the rush to nurture (and the rush to do what’s best).”

Mercury/Vesta indicates absolute focus on a spiritual idea or a dream – gazing at what can’t be fully seen or devoting yourself to a compassionate/ethereal concept. Meditating on the whisper. The square to Ceres suggests this information will clash with expansive (and loud) attempts at nurturing. Someone may be saying “No” to caring efforts or disagreeing with a philosophy of mothering. Basically, yesterday’s tension is put into words as the quiet voice disagrees with the bold proclamation of nurturing.

Mars/Uranus

The Mars/Uranus conjunction in the final degree of Aries indicates a last chance to break away, fight or escape. This volatile energy demands freedom to act but it’s easy to get carried away and take unwise risks.

Something needs to end (or be ignited) but remember that this energy can be accident-prone if mishandled. Impulse control is nonexistent. The opposition to Pallas suggests sudden actions will disrupt a social or relationship strategy. There may be impatience with the polite approach or a powerful desire to burn through the niceties and assert the truth/your will.

There’s potential for positive and negative here. Much depends on what’s being burnt away. Carefully consider what you’re asserting and why. Is it really necessary to burn that bridge? It might be, but know that what you set fire to will be gone for good – even if you’re igniting a new beginning, the fuel will be artifacts from the past.

Combined with Mercury/Vesta’s focus, we have an interesting mix of hot and cool. Calm and agitated. Actions are incendiary but thoughts and words can help you see beyond the heat or anger. Pay attention to the quiet voice – what’s it saying?

February 10th, 2019: Move Forward and Keep Talking

  • Waxing Sextile between the Aries Moon and Aquarius Sun (21 deg)

  • Mercury in Aquarius square Juno in Taurus (29 deg)

  • Juno enters Gemini

The Waxing Sextile encourages you to start something new. It’s time to step into uncharted territory or break a couple of rules, but no one is going to push you. The opportunity is there and it may seem inconsequential, but don’t overlook it. Take one step forward and recognize how natural it feels.

This step forward can help you deal with the Mercury/Juno square. Mercury’s unconventional ideas/words will clash with Juno’s fixed partnership agreement. One person may be ready for something new while the other person wants things to remain as they are.

Well, it’s time for change and this is illustrated by Juno’s Gemini ingress, a few hours after this square. Juno into Gemini indicates that agreements and commitments can become more flexible as multiple options unfold. There’s more than one way to commit and open communication (Gemini is ruled by Mercury) will be key.

However, the tension with Mercury will continue as it enters Pisces on this day and (due to its Rx) repeats the square with Juno on March 24th and April 14th. More choices indicate that there’s more to discuss, but also more to disagree about. Accept that this will be an ongoing issue until April and be prepared to keep talking.

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.

February 1st, 2019: Raw Power and Transcendence

by  •

  • Mars in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)

  • Vesta enters Pisces

Mars/Pluto

Mars (conscious actions, anger) in a crisis-ridden square to Pluto (power and unconscious motivations) suggests powerful eruptions that are driven by things you’re not fully aware of. The crisis lies in the tension between unconscious and conscious – actions don’t align with motivations, and the result is usually something frustrated, hostile or even violent. Especially with Mars at full force in aggressive Aries.

So the key here is awareness. Before you do it or lash out, pay attention to what’s driving you. What do you really want to accomplish? Chances are there will be a deep push that feels urgent – life or death, even if the situation is something mundane like arguing over who takes out the garbage. Tune into the urgency, because it’s a doorway into what’s really motivating you (a simmering issue).

The risk is doing something out of proportion to the external circumstances. Don’t allow yourself to get carried away by what you haven’t fully identified. Too, someone could be attempting to manipulate you with domineering actions. Again, know that there’s more beneath the surface.

On the plus side, the square always suggests a corner that can be turned. And this aspect is tremendously powerful. If directed correctly, your actions can permanently transform a situation.

Think about that.

This is a First Quarter Square, which means you’ll be pushed to do something. But it’s not the start – the actual kickoff of this issue was April 26th, 2018 when Mars conjoined Pluto Rx at 21 deg Capricorn. Now you’ve reached the crisis and turning point.

Vesta

Vesta’s focus turns towards unseen matters as she enters Pisces. Here we have devotion to all things spiritual, creative and compassionate. Devotion can become heightened if you get hooked into a higher ideal or dream- this transit favours meditation, visionary work and prayer.

Vesta can become fixated on an issue, and if that happens to be something you feel requires your sacrifice, you can end up losing a great deal. Sometimes sacrifices are necessary, but sometimes they’re misguided.

Vesta will exit Pisces for Aries on April 3rd, 2019.

Vesta into Pisces and Mars/Pluto create an interesting contrast. Consider where your motivations are pushing you – Vesta’s higher focus suggests a transformation for the better. Can you feel the two energies? You’ll certainly feel Mars/Pluto’s raw power (or powerful manipulations) but see if you can sense a shift in focus to something that allows you to transcend or release (Pisces).
