July 17th, 2017: Play It Smart, Not Crazy

  • Venus in Gemini square Neptune Rx in Pisces: 14 degrees
  • Mars in Cancer square Uranus in Aries: 28 degrees

When the planets of love (Venus) and sex (Mars) both make hard aspects to the outer planets, you know today has the potential to go off the rails. There could be an emotional pursuit of someone who doesn’t exist – you’re “in love” with their Instagram account. Or, the drunken text that seems edgy-sexy at the time. But you regret it the next morning.

Of course, this can be about other things. Venus is what you want and Mars is what you do to get it. Venus covers money, self-esteem, beauty and all social interactions. Mars is anger, violence, action.

Neptune’s blurry square can enhance a craving for something impossible, so you end up making the wrong choice (Gemini). Uranus’ push can trigger impulsive actions as you snap or take a risk. The root cause will probably involve a need (Cancer) that must be met ASAP. 

As I wrote in this week’s horoscopes, Venus and Mars will calm down on the 18th with some beneficial aspects (post to follow on the 18th). So there is good potential here – Venus/Neptune can lead to something beautiful, compassionate and creative. Mars/Uranus can set you free as you give suffocating traditions/family the boot. The net result is expansion and opening. Exhale. 

But you have to be careful today. Really careful. Think before you act. Consider your options. If you’re tempted to dive headfirst into something, ask yourself if it’s in your best interests. If you’re trying to open something up or pursue, control your impatience and move carefully. Do you really want X, or is something else at play?

June 19th, 2017: Keep Talking

by  •

  • Sun in Gemini square Chiron in Pisces: 28 degrees
  • Mercury in Gemini trine the South Node in Aquarius/sextile the North Node in Leo
  • Uranus in Aries conjunct Pallas: 27 degrees

Sun/Chiron suggests that painful choices/information may undermine confidence. The purpose of something (or your purpose) may be in question, due to doubts about competence. Attempts to skate over the sore spot will fail, because the square as crisis aspect indicates you must confront what hurts – perhaps putting yourself out there and openly discussing/learning will expose the wound. Once it’s exposed, you can deal with it. Rather than allowing the discomfort to shatter your purpose, consider both sides of the issue – ego and empathy, power and compassion. 

Meanwhile, Mercury’s aspects to the Nodes encourage you to keep talking/reading/gathering information. The more you know, or the more information you share with others, the more successful your efforts to move forward will be. Key topics will involve the past, and how those events can be integrated into the future. Gemini is uniquely equipped for this, due to the ability to view both sides of the issue. This aspect is part of the Kite, discussed here. 

Uranus/Pallas can trigger brilliant flashes of inspiration. Watch for bold, unusual strategies or odd patterns that suddenly catch your attention. There’s no logic to this one – it’s a lightening-in-a-bottle influence that can’t be rationalized. The initial idea may not make sense, but you should have a tingly feeling that you’re onto something big. 

The Sun/Chiron square may shut you down, or shut you up. But today’s other aspects encourage you to keep talking. Keep looking for answers and consider all sides of your situation. It hurts right now, but the future beckons.

June 15th, 2017: Saturn Retrograde Opposes the Gemini Sun

by  •

  • Sun opposite Saturn Rx in Sagittarius: 24 degrees

This is about more than limits; it’s the midpoint of Saturn’s Rx transit. There should be an enhanced understanding of why you’re being limited, or what you have to choose, or what responsibilities remain. If Saturn Rx has brought you delays, this aspect should bring you clarity (but not an end to the delays – yet). 

Saturn will station direct on August 25th.

This opposition forms the spine of the Kite I discussed here. There’s opportunity in restriction – Saturn’s limits will provide the structure that allows you to focus the energy of the Grand Fire Trine (made of up Saturn, Uranus in Aries and the Leo North Node). What can you do with Fire? It gives you the courage to create. It says “You can do this.” It implies there’s more to come – something to look forward to. But sometimes you need to focus, first. Sometimes you need defined choices that force you to look in one direction. That’s where you pour all your energy and make use of the Fire potential.
