October 27th, 2016: Sun/Mercury in Scorpio, Venus Square the Nodes, Mars Sextile Chiron Rx
Gustave Doré, 1868, “Idylls of the King” Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org
The Sun conjoins Mercury in Scorpio, at 4 degrees. Clarity pierces the shadows, revealing secrets or additional layers. This superior conjunction may be connected to September 12th’s inferior conjunction at 20 degrees Virgo (when Mercury was Rx). The facts that were illuminated then are peeled back now. A richer understanding is achieved.
This connects to Venus in Sagittarius’ square to the Mercury-ruled North Node in Virgo/South Node in Pisces, at 11 degrees. Venus in Sag triggers a point of tension. The restless desire to expand or take an emotional/financial leap may bring you to a crossroads. The North Node and Mercury in Scorpio say the way forward involves carrying the facts to their ultimate conclusion. The time for vagueness or escapism is over. If you’re going to jump in, make sure you know exactly how deep the waters are, what you really want, and the potential consequences. No excuses.
Mars in Capricorn makes a sextile to Chiron Rx in Pisces, at 21 degrees. Quiet healing is achieved with sober, determined actions. Doing what needs to be done, and doing it with focused efficiency, will move you along nicely. Disciplined actions carry you over awkward patches. This will happen so smoothly that one else may notice. But you will. Tackle the sore spot and keep marching forward.
To Purge Is To Heal. Scorpio New Moon
Intense energy continues to seduce us this week, as Mercury (thoughts, communications, journeys) joins Sun (ego, identity) in Scorpio on Monday, October 24. What seems to be leading us, is coming from within, where our most private desires, intimate jealousies, and darkest temptations have been withheld and caged. As vision intensifies – loving kindness, brutal truth or stinging words will begin to penetrate – […]
Venus’ Transit of Sagittarius: What If It’s Going To Be Ok?
Evelyn De Morgan, 1887, “Hope in a Prison of Despair” -Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org
Venus’ Sagittarius ingress begins on October 18th. After the exploration of what lay beneath relationship, financial and self-esteem issues, she reaches out and up. The exploration continues, but now the search for new truths and new possibilities takes you over the horizon.
This transit urges you to have faith that something better is coming. Love will improve and grow. What you want may actually be out there, and you can afford it. Beauty lies in the glow of promise that you can see…just over there. If you don’t have faith that things will improve, that things will be ok, you’ll never get out of bed. And you can choose to not have faith. To believe in nothing. You can sit this one out, because sometimes it’s easier to be hopeless. Hope leaves you open to pain.
But…
…for those who want to progress, you have to move on. You have to take that risk and start believing again. Even a rock solid relationship or value system will stagnate if there’s no expansion. And for sure…the pain of an eviscerating love or the abyss of zero self-esteem will remain magnetically fresh if you don’t move forward. You have to make room for something new, even if you’re not certain that you’ll achieve it. With this transit, the cliché about the journey being more important than the goal is true. What you learn along the way is what triggers growth.
Venus will be in mutual reception with Jupiter in Libra. This adds an extra layer of optimism, as Venus and Jupiter strengthen each other. Partnership issues will be key- new ways to cooperate, new people to meet, new things to learn about a partner you’ve been with for many years. For those who’ve been dancing the same, painful relationship dance, these influences can open your eyes to different ways of connecting. Maybe you don’t have to play the role of ____. That’s the core of Jupiter/Sag’s optimism – you are given a broader perspective, which encourages you to try something different. Sag is a Mutable sign – truth is not carved in stone. The downside is “flexible” honesty. The upside is busting out of unhealthy truths you’ve been telling yourself.
Who knows where this might lead?
The Venus/Jupiter sextile (October 26th) will be an important date. Another key date will be Venus’ conjunction with Saturn, on October 29th – the finish line, reality check or formal commitment.
Here are the aspects Venus in Sagittarius will make:
- Oct 25th: square Neptune Rx, 9 deg Pisces
- Oct 26th: sextile Jupiter, 10 deg Libra
- Oct 27th: square the Virgo/Pisces Nodes, 11 deg
- Oct 29th: conjunct Saturn, 14 deg
- Nov 3rd: sextile Pallas, 19 deg Aquarius
- Nov 4th: square Chiron Rx, 21 deg Pisces
- Nov 5th: trine Uranus Rx, 21 deg Aries
- Nov 7th: trine Ceres Rx, 24 deg Aries
- Nov 11th : Capricorn ingress
Venus in Sagittarius…
Venus is about to move out of steely and intense Scorpio into Sagittarius. Sagittarius is associated with exploration beyond your boundaries- and finding pleasure in that. Sure this could mean planning a holiday or taking a holiday, but it…
Observing Through Relationships, Mercury enters Libra, October Tarotscope
There’s an intense urge to release and finalize, in order to regain personal power with a transformative Scorpio Moon on Monday October 3. Self-serving motivation manages to boost us fast and forward with a Venus/Pluto sextile and Mars/Jupiter square on Wednesday October 5. Passionate fires have built a new strength to burn, burn burn as Pluto stationed […]
September 15th to 17th, 2016: Multi-Chiron
pexels.com
Mars in Sagittarius squares Chiron Rx on September 15th, at 22 degrees Pisces, while the Virgo Sun opposes Chiron. In a lead -up to tomorrow’s eclipse, restless actions or loss of temper can expose a sensitive spot. At the same time, the focus on flaws will be triggered. How can you make it better? You may not be able to. Some things cannot be perfectly healed. When Chiron’s involved, you’re going for awareness, acceptance and release.
The Sun will also make a hard inconjunct to Uranus Rx (23 degrees Aries) – watch for increased anxiety due to an unexpected change in direction. You may have to adjust your focus or fix.
Mars is building to an easy trine with Uranus Rx, exact on September 17th. This is when you exhale. After the initial stumble, you find your groove. This trine encourages initiative and freedom that won’t hurt anyone. However, September 17th also offers an inconjunct between Venus in Libra and Chiron Rx, so it won’t all be smooth sailing. Brief spurts of relationship/social insecurity can unbalance you. Do they like you? Is the other person happy?Pay attention to social cues, but don’t let this throw you off track .
Different Facets of Chiron
Chiron Rx in Pisces has been hit by frequently with some concentrated hard aspects, since August 1st. Transiting planets in Leo triggered inconjuncts, confronting you with appreciation versus sacrifice. The Virgo stellium opposing Chiron is jabbing the flaw or weakness. Venus in Libra (and in October, the Sun and Mercury) confronts you with personal versus transpersonal. And Mars in Sag tests your faith as you take action.
When activating a planet, point or angle in your chart, transiting Chiron reveals a key area of guilt, weakness or sensitivity. You can choose to confront and come to terms with that wound. Heal it (although a scar will remain) by feeling it. The other transits that have been activating Chiron will give you the tools. Different facets of the wound will be revealed – a multi-dimensional healing opportunity. Soft aspects (sextiles and trines) are nice opportunities to sooth what hurts, but the hard aspects grab your attention. They hurt, but with Chiron it has to hurt before you can heal.
If you have anything from 22 to 24 degrees of the Mutable signs, Chiron Rx has been triggering you.
