October 1st, 2019: Venus Square Pluto and Relationship Dynamics

Juan de Flandes

  • Venus in Libra Square Pluto RX in Capricorn (20°)

  • Neptune RX in Pisces opposite Juno in Virgo (16°)  

  • Juno in Virgo opposite Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (16°)

Venus/ Pluto is the crisis between the surface of relationships versus darker truths underneath. The uncomfortable issues, symbolized by Pluto, will create tension that draws your awareness to inconvenient truths. This tension can manifest as obsessive attractions, jealousy or manipulative one- on- one exchanges.

The separating Neptune/Lilith conjunction challenges precise, correct relationship agreements (Juno). BML is the other woman/whore/witch and Juno is the “good wife”. These extreme symbols will be in play somehow, even if it’s someone’s distorted view of the virgin/whore dichotomy. 

In this case, Lilith is the slippery seductress and Juno is the faithful “virgin.” As outdated as these manifestations may be, they still hold power over some people. You may be surprised to discover untapped feelings of guilt or judgment toward yourself or someone else who embodies Lilith or Juno.

Along with the subterranean truth of the Venus/ Pluto square, the Lilith/Juno opposition can reveal some interesting relationship dynamics.

September 30th, 2019: Lilith and Neptune, Mars and Vesta

  • Neptune RX conjunct Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (16°)

  • Mars in Virgo trine Vesta RX in Taurus (27°)

Neptune can expand or distort Lilith’s power. The dangerous woman can become truly magical as she creates a seductive aura of glamour and transcendent sexuality. She drifts around the rules and dissolves judgments. Open yourself up to what’s potent, forbidden and cast out .

But Neptune can also dissolve self-preservation, so it can be easy to get caught up in the illusion of power that is actually undermining behaviour. BML/Neptune can deceive others and herself- if you’re using sexuality or rule-breaking energy and there’s even a hint that you’re dabbling in something destructive, be careful: Lilith/ Neptune is not who she initially appears to be.

Mars/Vesta can keep you on the right track if you tune into precise, correct actions that are focused on maintaining security. Acting with care and keeping it clean can build something good. Remind yourself of what’s solid and focus on what you know is correct. This influence can confirm what’s sacred: the real, reliable temple you’ve built. This could be your body, your home, your routine.

September 24th, 2019: Relationships are Favoured

  • 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.

September 20th, 2019: Sun Trine Vesta

  • 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

  • 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.
