Sun/Mercury Rx can uncover answers, or spotlight the return of someone from your past. News, conversations or reconnections will give you more to go on, but nothing’s final. Rather, this aspect encourages you to ask more questions or continue the review. Will the structure hold? Is the commitment real? Where are the weak spots? Mars adds gentle initiative – keep looking, thinking, considering and act accordingly.
Rules, denial or obligations define (Saturn) the wound (Chiron). The crisis of the square will make this influence especially tense and unpleasant. But the square is an active aspect. Chiron is meant to be confronted, so use the tension to do that. Mars’ influence on Sun/Mercury Rx encourages you to take action, in light of what you hear or learn (just remember it’s Mercury Rx).
The Capricorn/Saturn influence is dominant. This means maturity and self-control are your sharpest tools.
These influences are part of the Capricorn New Moon.
December 27th, 2016: Quiet Conquest

- Pallas enters Pisces
Pallas reenters Pisces after her Rx and return to Aquarius. The undefined pattern/strategy is ready to be pursued, again. Pallas Rx was a time to revise, and ensure that the pattern wasn’t an illusion. Now you can move forward with your creative/compassionate plan. Pallas is named after the warrior goddess, Pallas Athena, so she is also associated with victory. But in Pisces, the battle may not be obvious. It could be a spiritual battle, or strategies that help you overcome loss.
Sun/Mars can help, as they energize Pisces. Purpose harmonizes with action, for gentle but certain progress. None of these energies are about violent conquest. But they do encourage quiet victory.
