  • Scorpio Sun sextile Pluto in Capricorn (21°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn (16°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio trine Neptune RX in Pisces (15°)

Pluto rules Scorpio, so this harmonious connection with the Sun adds depth and power to an issue that’s currently being illuminated. Power can be expressed effectively without trampling over others- tap into the transformation of old rules/structures for a solid confirmation and the reveal of valuable strength and resources. This is power that’s expressed with calmness and quiet assurance.

Mercury/Neptune is a profound  flow of words. There are no limits to what can be said, as long as what’s communicated is authentic. Saturn adds some control and boundaries, keeping the focus on the relevant issues and injecting a touch of reality. Excellent if you need to communicate creatively or compassionately, but also with authority. You could also be discussing or contemplating a necessary sacrifice.

These Mercury aspects have occurred previously (when it was direct) from October 14-15th. So you are now revisiting this issue or reconfirming the terms.

Creating Resilience

Mercury will cross the Sun and the Taurid meteor shower will climax on Veterans Day, Monday November 11. Thank you Veterans for your service. A bountiful Taurus Full Moon will bloom on Tuesday November 12. What we’ve been sending out into the universe during the past few weeks will transpire, as New Moon intentions peak. […]

  • Scorpio Sun conjunct Mercury RX (18°)

The inferior conjunction between the Sun and Mercury marks the halfway point of Mercury’s retrograde. This can be a time of clarity as the deep reviews and investigations suddenly make sense. You might uncover what you’ve been searching for or reach a turning point in the process of questioning. A secret could be revealed or the intense, repeat conversation could bear fruit.

Mercury will still be retrograde so there will not be forward movement just yet, but there should be an understanding of how to tackle the remainder of this transit. Know that what you discover today will be the absolute truth.

November 10th, 2019: Mercury RX Opposite Vesta

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio opposite Vesta RX in Taurus (20°)

You could experience this aspect as extreme blockage around what you’re trying to communicate or investigate. Vesta is absolute focus, but when opposing Mercury that focus challenges intellect or communication.

The focus on a habit or something you’re trying to preserve can be so extreme that you deny deeper insights that have emerged. Vesta can manifest like Saturn with passion. 

Too, the investigation can bring you to the same, restrictive result-you may have to decide to look elsewhere temporarily.

This aspect occurred previously on October 23rd, when Mercury was direct. So you’re returning to the same, obsessive issue or ending. And once again you’re confronted by blocks. Don’t expect progress while Mercury is RX, but do look at the repeat message-is there a compromise between depth versus preservation? Is there something you’re refusing to see?

November 9th, 2019: Black Moon Lilith Speaks Again

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (21°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (20°)

  • Chiron RX in Aries opposite Juno in Libra (1 °)

Once again, BML is given a voice as she harmonizes with Mercury. The investigation of secrets or a closer look at taboo information will enable her. Women’s sexual energy that is powerful, disruptive and unorthodox can be verbalized, and the sextile to Pluto (which rules Scorpio) adds even more power. 

Pluto is the death and transformation of old ideas. Words are authentic and magnetic but uncomfortably honest. Nonetheless, they can be well received. If you ever wanted to talk about Lilith, now’s the time.

These aspects to Mercury last occurred from October 17th-19th, when Mercury was direct. Now you may be revisiting the ideas, identifying the hidden facts or repeating the same, intense message. Repetition equals power.

This also ties in to yesterday’s sextile between Pluto and BML.

Chiron/Juno suggests a painful imbalance in a relationship agreement. One partner may be hurt by the agreement, but goes along with it because they feel they have no choice. This can be the compromise that is wounding, or a compromise that is made in spite of the pain.

November 2nd, 2019: Following The Secret

  • Sun in Scorpio trine Cancer North Node (10°)

  • Mercury RX in Scorpio conjunct Pallas (27°)

Sun/NN encourages you to follow the path of least resistance. Scorpio issues of depth, transformation, intimacy or complete commitment to an issue will effortlessly align you with your path forward. This is symbolized by the Cancer North Node, a new area of emotional fulfillment. Allow yourself to flow with your feelings or instincts-there will be a strong current that pulls you in a direction that feels right.

Mercury is intellect and communication, and when it unites with Pallas (strategy) you can access secret or obscured/taboo patterns. You can put unspoken strategies into words or investigate an approach to problem solving the that calls for instinct and intellect.

This is the second of two conjunctions in Scorpio-the first took place on October 21st at 27° (when Mercury was direct). That may have been your initial introduction to this strategy, and now you’re reviewing or looking more deeply at the issue. This second look will be an essential part of identifying hidden (possibly psychological) patterns.

If you have anything at 27° Scorpio, these conjunctions will be important for you. What deeper strategies do you need to identify or discuss?
