April 15th, 2017: Venus Direct in Pisces

  • Venus in Pisces stations direct: 26 degrees

The reevaluation of relationships, finances and self-esteem (which began on March 4th when Venus stationed Rx in Aries) is now complete. You should have a greater understanding of what something’s worth. Of what you’re worth. Venus’ station is very close to Chiron in Pisces, so this understanding will involve compassionate acceptance of a wound. Moving forward means forgiving yourself or forgiving someone else. Accepting (Pisces) that it/you/they are not perfect. And, you’re going to stop reopening the wound. This is crucial. Forgiveness does not mean allowing the hurtful situation to continue. Remember – you’re moving forward. 

Venus will be involved with the Saturn square, until April 21st. Progress may not feel like progress. You might wonder if there’s any movement at all. During this time, it’s important that you don’t give up. You have turned a corner. Trust this. Saturn is defining your new reality (maybe your new values) and there’s a task ahead of you. It’s the same task that you were aware of when this square first began (April 8th) but now you’re ready to lean into it. You’re done mopping up the spills of the past, and you can focus all your energy on this. Saying goodbye can be a bigger job than you imagined.  

And let’s just say the work continues until April 30th, when the square between Saturn Rx and Chiron in Pisces perfects at 27 degrees. The painful limits implied by this aspect are being felt now. And the limits may continue until the end of the month. But Venus direct is leaving the party – one layer has been removed, one issue has been dealt with. That’s one less thing to worry about.

If you have any planets/points from 26 to 27 degrees of the Mutable signs, you’re in the zone for the Venus/Saturn/Chiron dance. Money, love or self-worth has reached a crisis point, but you’re in the home stretch.

April 8th, 2017: When It Hurts

by  •

  • Sun in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn: 19 degrees
  • Venus Rx in Pisces square Saturn Rx in Sagittarius: 27 degrees

Shadow Power

Sun/Pluto can trigger a crisis that shines a light on shadow issues. New beginnings, freedom or impulse will have a darker side, as anxiety leaks through. A square involving Pluto intensifies its power, even though fear of weakness is increased (overcompensation is the result). 

When confronted with this aspect, consider what’s behind the aggression. You may be the one compulsively charging ahead, or someone else may react to your initiative.

The Venus/Saturn Dance

Venus Rx/Saturn Rx can feel like a painful deadlock, as you revisit an issue and encounter limits. Those limits are reality. Whether you see that you have to end something, or intensify your focus on what you want, the way forward involves accepting reality. This is what you can’t have. This is what you must do. It will be obvious – Saturn always is. 

This square will perfect again on April 21st (27 degrees) when Venus is direct. From April 8th to the 27th, they will remain within orb of each other, which means the square will be active for the entire time. And Chiron will be lurking in the background, at 26 degrees Pisces.

I know – not fun. But this is the current reality, so let’s deal with it. Chiron’s influence means this will be an essential confrontation with a wound – what you’re afraid of losing, where you feel least attractive, where you feel less worthy. Where you hurt. You can’t avoid this (Saturn won’t let you) and that will be a good thing. You’ll either push past the pain and get what you want, or you’ll understand that it’s time to focus your energy elsewhere. 

Even with Saturn’s structure, Venus in Pisces is still about allowing – it will happen or it won’t. You’ll know whether you should give it one, last try, or whether you should just let go. Sun/Pluto may urge you to struggle against the inevitable. But that’s just your fear talking. Sun/Pluto really wants you to evolve. Stop fighting it and just go with the deconstruction.

Yes, this applies even if you are on track to getting something desirable. The prospect of finally hearing “yes” can stir up all kinds of fears. What if it hurts? What if you’re exposed? These things may happen. But it will hurt even more to remain frozen in your current state.  The message in these aspects is that it hurts to love, whether you’re opening yourself up or shutting something down. You can’t avoid the pain, but you can take the sweetness of release, or the joy of acceptance, as part of the package.
