  • Venus in Libra sextile Saturn in Sagittarius: 24 deg
  • Venus in Libra inconjunct Chiron Rx in Pisces: 24 deg
  • Sun in Scorpio trine Neptune Rx in Pisces: 11 deg

Venus is the dominant energy today. Her sextile with Saturn suggests quiet developments in money, relationship and self-esteem matters. Nothing flashy, just a reminder to calmly approach Venus issues. Be disciplined (Saturn) about balancing (Libra) your wants. Be an adult (Saturn) about this. 

Venus/Chiron may present a painful reminder. Developments could trigger an insecurity – you feel unloved, unattractive, etc. This is where Saturn comes in. When you experience that brief moment of social embarrassment, or you feel “unacceptable” Saturn’s steady hand will urge you to look at the bigger picture (Sagittarius). There’s more going on than your awkward moment.

Sun/Neptune encourages you to immerse yourself in something deeper. Yes, your Venus issue is important, but there’s also a reservoir of compassion, creativity or peace. And you can only access it if you take one step back from the surface stuff (how you look/how they look/how well you’re liked). If you find yourself dwelling excessively on a relationship/self-esteem problem, release your concerns about appearance and open yourself up to what lies beneath (the deeper truth, even if it’s ugly). Accept what you have and release the yearning for what you don’t have.

Any combination of Neptune and the Sun transcends the ego. Add in Scorpio, and you have the potential to empower yourself by letting go of grasping, controlling, compulsive behaviour. Stop trying to influence others, and see what happens.

  • October 31st, 2017: Venus in Libra trine the Aquarius South Node (21 deg)

Venus’ connection to the South Node suggests a relationship/attraction from the past may resurface. Aquarius’ friendship blends with Venus in Libra’s flirty vibe, for a light, easy connection.

Too, this aspect might help you carry something from the past into the present, as Venus also makes a harmonious sextile to the Leo North Node. It can be easy to arrive at an agreement about where a relationship stands, and how much energy you want to give it as you move forward. While Venus in Libra is associated with romance, this can be about any cooperative partnership or enjoyable social connection.

October 11th, 2017: Lilith Versus The Virgin

  • Venus in Virgo inconjunct Uranus Rx in Aries: 26 degrees
  • Venus in Virgo square Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius: 26 degrees
  • Uranus Rx in Aries trine Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius: 26 degrees
  • Mars in Virgo square Saturn in Sagittarius: 22 degrees

BML is agitating (in all her outcast glory) with an enabling trine to Uranus. This aspect encourages taboo and disruptive women’s issues – freedom for whatever makes the patriarchy and polite society uncomfortable.  

And this energy will be at odds with polite society, due to the square between Venus and Lilith. Specifically, Virgo’s ultra-correct expression of female energy. Here is the clichéd good girl/bad girl dichotomy – Virgo’s purity versus Sagittarius’ wildness. And Uranus will make things difficult for poor Venus, as he jolts her with panicky reminders that this scenario is messy. 

The above could manifest as an internal struggle: you’re stuck between the obligation to be “good” versus rabidly honest. Or, someone may play the Venus role, with you as Lilith (or vice versa). Both sides have merit. Venus asks why BML insists on ignoring certain facts in her lust to be recognized. Parts of the real story (the dry but important parts) may be glossed over. Lilith asks why Venus is so insanely critical, neurotic and repressive. Why is it unclean to break the rules?

Mars will be zero help. He’s locked in a battle with Saturn – restricted actions, repressed anger and oppressive responsibilities. 

Overall, today’s vibe is clamped down and judgemental. Something/someone is struggling to come out, but there will be a host of rules, picky details and critiques to navigate. As oppressive as those rules and details will be, they cannot be ignored. There’s work (Mars/Saturn) to do, even if you want to rebel.

Jupiter enters Scorpio. A few cosmic shifts are happening this week… and life could get a bit more bumpier with the consuming Mercury/Pluto square and a demanding Sun/Pluto square on Monday October 9, with a frustrating Mars/Saturn square on Wednesday October 11. As we try to get through the coming days somewhat gracefully, beneficial Jupiter […]
