  • Mercury in Libra inconjunct Neptune RX in Pisces (16°)

  • Mercury in Libra sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius (17°)

  • Venus in Libra sextile Ceres in Sagittarius (11°)

  • Saturn in Capricorn trine Juno in Virgo (13°)

Mercury/Neptune is a caution to balance truth with sensitivity. What’s unspoken or suspected should be honored, but don’t allow it to undermine your objectivity when speaking with others. It can be easy to read too much into what you think the other person is saying. But the more dominant aspect of Mercury/Jupiter should counteract this with a shot of balanced wisdom and optimism. Overall, communication with others will be open minded and inclusive.

Venus/Ceres adds a smooth touch to all relationships. One-on-one exchanges will be nurturing but not smothering. This aspect suggests acceptance and objective empathy for all. This also has a light touch- no one is being forced to conform or stay.

For those who want reassurance, Saturn/Juno ensures the firm commitment. Juno in Virgo is the detailed agreement-nothing is overlooked and there is a shared desire to improve. Saturn nails it down with an official commitment or steadfast rules.

Overall, any one-on-one exchange is favoured today.

  • Virgo Sun trine Vesta in Taurus (27 deg)

Vesta is focus and Virgo is details, so here we have the ultimate combo of precision and fixed focus. The Sun will illuminate an area that’s precious – a resource or survival issue. Specific details will be integrated into the sacred altar: perhaps you can make small but effective improvements to what you’re building.

The details are elevated and attain a level of purity when you see how they contribute to your survival. Use the facts or (yes) critiques as fuel for the flame. Sun in harmony with Vesta finds purpose in pure focus.

August 30th, 2019: Mercury Conjunct Juno

  • Mercury in Virgo conjunct Juno (3 deg)

The details of an agreement are spoken or written. Any type of partnership can be clarified as flaws or solutions are described. This is about the fine print – don’t ignore what’s written at the bottom of the page or what your partner is adding. It’s also an opportunity for you to get precise about what you’re agreeing to, because the little things matter.

This aspect suggests a partnership that’s based on communication, analysis and the drive for improvement. It’s not enough to simply be, there’s a desire to make each other better or figure things out together. Remembering that Virgo is about integration, consider if someone close to you has the missing piece of the puzzle.

August 28th, 2019: Progress And What Can’t Be Fixed

by  •

  • Virgo Sun inconjunct Chiron Rx in Aries (4 deg)

  • Virgo Sun square Ceres in Sagittarius (4 deg)

  • Mars in Virgo trine Uranus Rx in Taurus (6 deg)

Sun

The inconjunct to Chiron illuminates what hurts and what cannot be fixed. Virgo Sun’s purpose is to correct, but this influence will expose the wound that must be confronted rather than neatly tidied up. The focus on what sticks out like a sore thumb (Chiron in Aries) can emphasize distorted Virgo issues of not being good enough/smart enough.

But the messy, aggressive issue can increase awareness that this is a work in progress which requires empathy – helping others by acknowledging their battle rather than enforcing militant solutions. The Sun’s square to Ceres also hints at a crisis of nurturing – trying so hard to care and protect that good intentions become smothering. Freedom or ideals can trigger anxiety, with a resulting focus on “shoulds” and details that stifle growth.

Mars

Mars/Uranus is a nice antidote to the above. Precise, studious actions are injected with enough innovation that they enable change. Moving forward step-by-step can gradually reveal new details. Excellent for working on something that requires careful progress. This aspect also helps to counteract the Virgo paralysis that occurs with the loop of endless corrections: Uranus provides a nudge that keeps you moving.

If you get caught up in anxiety or fears of failure, slow down and initiate one small change at a time.

August 27th, 2019: Chiron Trine Ceres

  • Chiron Rx in Aries trine Ceres in Sagittarius (4 deg)

The painful issue can be addressed with expansive nurturing. Chiron in Aries is about the courage to be uncomfortable/stand out/fight while you’re hurting. It’s the new, painful battle. Ceres in Sag can help you integrate those issues via learning, exploration or the growth of faith. This aspect says it’s ok to bleed a bit – the wound won’t stop you from reaching further.

Actually, the further you reach the more care and support you’ll find. The Fire energy encourages motivation, passion and hope for the future.

This is the second of two trines (the first occurred on June 6th when Chiron was direct and Ceres Rx). So you’re revisiting what hurts, maybe taking another shot at something that requires more faith.

In mundane matters this can point to a course of education about healing/food issues or successfully addressing difficult legal matters involving mother/child.

August 26th, 2019: Targeted Improvements

by  •

  • Venus in Virgo trine Uranus Rx in Taurus (6 deg)

  • Pallas enters Scorpio

Venus/Uranus integrates change (Uranus) with financial/relationship/self-esteem issues in a gradual way. The update can occur in a step-by-step manner: a little adjustment here and there is all that’s needed to improve (Virgo) those Venus issues and approach what you want/love in new (Uranus) way.

Taurus is ruled by Venus, so there’s extra resonance in this aspect. Uranus in Taurus might be triggering some radical changes to habits or resources, but since it’s Rx at the moment the pace has probably slowed. Hooking up with Venus in Virgo, it’s the perfect time to zero in on the details – really get in there and change the way you relate to others, yourself or your money. Pinpoint the exact thing that’s not quite right.

Pallas into Scorpio is intensive strategies. This transit is about digging into the uncomfortable stuff/secrets and gaining profound insight about what most people don’t want to touch. Excellent for research or planning that involves psychological issues. This is the covert “battle strategy” that involves manipulation or accessing deeper resources in order to win.

Since Pallas involves pattern recognition, this can also be about seeing the deeper connections that have previously been obscured. Effective solutions involve going beyond the point where most people are comfortable, but that’s where the raw truth lies.

Consider how this Scorpio ingress can assist you with Venus/Uranus improvements.

Pallas will exit Scorpio for Sagittarius on Nov 8th.

August 24th, 2019: Venus Conjunct Mars in Virgo

  • Venus in Virgo conjunct Mars (4 deg)

  • Venus in Virgo square Ceres in Sagittarius (4 deg)

Venus/Mars is the perfect union of attraction and action. Carefully measured efforts, attention to detail and the motivation to improve can bring exactly (Virgo) what you’re working for. “Working” is the key word – Virgo never takes it easy. Too, this can be about showing (Mars) your love (Venus) by helping/serving/organizing.

But the square to Ceres suggests a conflict between the above and the expansive nurturing of something big or idealistic. The drive for freedom or wisdom will be challenged by the focus on specifics. Efforts to make it better or express love/affection may be fussy or overzealous when compared to more liberated examples of growth.

Consider if your efforts are attracting what you want and how this stacks up against a nurturing ideal.

August 23rd, 2019: Virgo Season Begins With a Crisis

  • Third Quarter Square between the Gemini Moon and Virgo Sun (0 deg)

  • Juno enters Virgo

Virgo season begins on a challenging note with the 3rd Quarter Square – the Crisis of Consciousness. There may be conflicting urges to focus on the details versus the input of fast, new choices and info. Should you take your time or react quickly to what’s coming in? The questions that come up will be important.

This aspect is about questioning what you thought you knew, so the sudden influx of new choices is designed to open your eyes and drag you away from tunnel vision. While the overwhelming vibe may involve looking at one thing, don’t ignore the chatter or distractions. There’s more to consider.

Having said this, Virgo thrives on tension. There’s dissatisfaction when things are going smoothly, so this crisis could be exactly what’s needed. There’s something to fix, and there’s no better time to address it than now.

Juno into Virgo takes partnership agreements and breaks them down. The specifics about what you and another have committed to will be on the line. Do A and B work for both? Are the little things lining up? This is also about the desire to make a partnership better – if anything’s not working between you, this transit will emphasize it. There will also be solutions, but they will only work if both people want it.
