  • Saturn Rx in Capricorn square Pallas in Libra (16 deg)

Relationship (Libra) strategies (Pallas) reach a crisis point as rules/traditions dictate what cannot work. There may be an imbalance between you and another that’s blocking cooperation or the effective exchange of solutions. This is not a new issue – the square also occurred on Apr 9th (20 deg). At that time, Pallas was Rx and Saturn direct. Now, Saturn is Rx and Pallas is direct – the limits are under review. You’re trying to move forward, but those commitments from the past have popped up once more.

It’s not a great day for compromise, so don’t expect easy solutions. Rather, consider what’s causing the imbalance and why.

July 5th, 2019: Juno and Black Moon Lilith

  • Juno in Leo inconjunct Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (6 deg)

Juno in Leo is the proud wife or partner. BML is the other woman/taboo woman. In Pisces, this suggests a sacrifice, loss or transcendence (rising above). Lilith is at odds with Juno, and the inconjunct says that an adjustment must be made between them.

That means an agreement or issue of pride/ fidelity must be adjusted with a sacrifice. Perhaps one partner’s ego needs to be set aside to make room for BML’s controversial energy. However, this must be done in a way that doesn’t undermine the agreement – the acceptance (Pisces) of something shouldn’t be so humbling that it’s victimizing.

June 29th, 2019: Cancer Sun Sextile Vesta

  • Sun in Cancer sextile Vesta in Taurus (8 deg)

An area of devotion is subtly empowered. Absolute focus on habits, resources (including money) and security (Vesta in Taurus) is given purpose by emotional or family issues. Pay attention to the gentle intensification of what you need/feel by what you must have or what you’re trying to preserve.

This aspect can solidify a family matter or confirm your security/safety with a gentle nudge – a hint that you’re looking in the correct area. Security is sacred and family values can support abundance. The mood is quietly satisfied.

  • Mercury in Leo trine Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (1 deg)

Bold statements/ideas are nurtured by exploration. This is about having faith (Sagittarius) in what you’re communicating, or forging ahead with the growth of a creative idea. This energy is confident and outgoing, and Mercury/Ceres suggests information about growth, women/children or food.

However, this is the first of three trines between Mercury and Ceres, due to Mercury’s Rx:

  • Jul 18th: Mercury Rx in Leo trine Ceres in Sag (0 deg)

  • Aug 14th: Mercury in Leo trine Ceres in Sag (2 deg)

The conversation, plan or course of learning has only just begun. There will be revisions/delays, with progress in August. But start the discussion now – it’s a process.

June 25th, 2019: Last Quarter Square and a Grand Trine

by  • 

Last Quarter.jpg

  • Moon in Aries trine Juno in Leo (2 deg)

  • Moon in Aries trine Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (2 deg)

  • Last Quarter Square between the Aries Moon and Cancer Sun (3 deg)

  • Moon conjunct Chiron (5 deg)

  • Juno in Leo trine Ceres Rx in Sagittarius (2 deg)

Last Quarter Square

Here we have a crisis between strength and vulnerability. You were safe, relying on what was familiar. But that’s starting to feel suffocating, and a restless impulse emerges to assertively question family or security. This may be a brand new issue, and the Moon’s conjunction to Chiron indicates that it will involve an uncomfortable mix of putting yourself out there (Aries) while being vulnerable. Perhaps there’s a family wound that needs to be confronted.

Grand Fire Trine

But the Moon is also part of a Grand Fire Trine involving Juno (partnership agreements) and Ceres (nurturing). So there’s a smooth flow of vibrant, confident energy that encourages bold questions and confrontations. Juno trine Ceres is the nurturing agreement which encourages pride and confidence between partners. If we add in Moon/Chiron, it suggests support (via this agreement) for these new questions that make you feel vulnerable. Or, perhaps there can be an agreement to confront the uncomfortable stuff.

Either way, you can tap into this energy to help you through the tension of the Last Quarter Square.

June 23rd, 2019: The New Goddess

Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant

  • Venus in Gemini inconjunct the Capricorn South Node (17 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini inconjunct Saturn Rx in Capricorn (18 deg)

  • Venus in Gemini opposite Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (17 deg)

  • Uranus in Taurus conjunct Vesta (5 deg)

  • Uranus and Vesta sextile Black Moon Lilith in Pisces ( 5 deg)

Venus

Venus/Jupiter can exaggerate what you want – there may appear to be more choices regarding a financial, relationship or value issue. And they will be exuberant and tempting. But some of those choices will be unwise, as Jupiter retrograde asks you to review before you say “yes.” And Venus’ inconjuncts to the South Node and Saturn Rx insist that a rule/limit from the past will narrow your choices. So really, you may only have one, viable option. The brakes will be applied and that issue from the past will not be ignored.

Uranus

Uranus/Vesta adds urgency to an area of focus. Vesta is the ultimate focus/sacred flame, and Uranus suggests a sudden shot of devotion; an all-or-nothing, extreme jolt that clarifies what has the most value (Taurus). This will include old values/resources/habits being blown away.

The sextile to BML suggests this will involve some taboo, possibly magical/transcendent expressions of female energy. One of Lilith’s manifestations is the witch, and this is emphasized in Pisces, the sign that lies beyond reality. Here we have a wake-up call about what/who is essential, even if she’s “forbidden.”

Vesta is purity and BML is dark, raw sexuality (the prostitute, the other woman, the woman who belongs to no one). When they harmonize, what’s socially forbidden becomes a path to personal enlightenment and discipline (Vesta is untouchable in her own way – she also belongs to no one but herself).

Add Uranus’s liberation, and you have a whole new set of values and security at your fingertips.

Summary

So, if we consider Uranus/Vesta/BML and the aspects to Venus (also female energy and the ruler of Taurus) a picture emerges- you’re questioning what sounds/looks good regarding love and values. Is it hollow? At the same time, there’s one, undeniable choice. You’re not stuck in the past, but you are paying attention to what came before so you don’t make the same mistakes. Or maybe there’s an ongoing responsibility/tradition that still has value.

Either way, Uranus/Vesta in Taurus insists that part of this is about devoting yourself to a new goddess – a new expression of female energy/values (whether you’re a man or woman) who cracks the Saturn whip.
