Venus in Scorpio trines Vesta, at 29 degrees Cancer, and makes an inconjunct to Ceres Rx, at 29 degrees Aries. The focus on what you love will deepen, and the flow may become almost obsessive. The greater the intensity of devotion, the greater the tension between this and something independent that’s being nurtured.

Vesta and Ceres are squaring each other (this aspect was exact on October 16th), triggering a crisis between birth/rebirth (Ceres) and devotion (Vesta). Focus in one area will clash with nurturing in another area. Compulsive attraction/love (Venus in Scorpio) will trigger this issue. Vesta is associated with purity (purity of intent, discipline) and Ceres is associated with mothering. When the two are at odds, difficulties with children and parental roles can come up. 

The solution is to not plunge so far into what you want, that you forget about what’s struggling to be free. Love that is one thousand fathoms deep is powerful, but it can drown the independent spark. Love deeply, love completely, but make sure you can see the light on the surface.

A day for compassionate release. 

Mercury in Virgo opposes Chiron Rx in Pisces, at 22 degrees. Looking too closely at the flaw, or for the flaw, won’t help. Sometimes it’s better to release what’s broken, rather than pinning it down with an observation. Staying silent and listening with compassionate empathy will be more helpful than offering solutions. 

Venus in Scorpio trines Neptune Rx in Pisces, at 9 degrees. Love is expressed through complete acceptance of the darkness. Embrace what makes you most uncomfortable and allow yourself to relax into the shadows. There are no limits here, and this is where you discover the jealousy, lack of control or “shameful” secrets, aren’t as bad as you thought. And maybe that relationship fear simply dissolves. This aspect is more about compassion than passion, but it can still be quite intense.
