January 17th, 2019: Sun in Capricorn Sextile Ceres

  • Capricorn Sun sextile Ceres in Scorpio (27 deg)

The Capricorn Sun energizes Ceres’ fathomless nurturing with structure and focus. Ceres in Scorpio can be demanding, since this sign is all or nothing. So it can be a lot to ask of someone who is giving or receiving (Scorpio has undertones of power and domination). But in this case, a commitment to deep, intensive care is strengthened by the adherence to rules and boundaries (boundaries are especially important to keep Scorpio’s energy in check).

This can also be about having the authority (Capricorn) to care for someone in the most intimate (Scorpio) way.

The sextile can be so easy that you don’t even notice the energies at play, so the commitment to look after someone may emerge without effort. Or, the structure that defines this nurturing may click into place before you realize what’s happening.

However, you can also miss the opportunity as the moment slides by. So it’s possible that there’s a naturally supportive foundation for this demanding energy, but you overlook it. What you need for care and support is right in front of you- all it takes is awareness to activate it.

January 16th, 2019: Quiet Progress

  • Waxing Trine between the Taurus Moon and Capricorn Sun (26 deg)

  • Sun in Capricorn conjunct the South Node (26 deg)

  • Ceres in Scorpio trine the Cancer North Node (26 deg)

The Waxing Trine enables smooth progress as rules and ambitions are integrated with habits and security. What works for you and makes you comfortable will fit easily into a structure – your plans can progress slowly but surely if you use what you’ve got.

The Waxing Trine also involves the Sun’s conjunction to the South Node, so part of moving forward will involve the integration of a past rule or result. Or, perhaps an ending is necessary before you can take your next step. The Capricorn South Node suggests a law, judgement or responsibility that is now delivering results. How can you make the most of this? The Earth sign emphasis means visible, physical results – perhaps a structural foundation, material resources or the body.

Meanwhile, Ceres’ trine to the North Node encourages the development of a new area of emotional awareness. Deep nurturing can open the door to something that makes you vulnerable, but it’s safe – you can explore your needs without being hurt. The mother/child dynamic is very strong here and there may be someone who’s acting as your caring guide (or perhaps you’re intensifying the nurturing you’re capable of). Any relationship that involves unconditional care and support can move in a good direction.

The solidity of the Waxing Trine can support the development of a new path that takes you towards something that feels good and right – something that resonates in your core even if you can’t articulate it yet.

Overall, this can be a quietly productive day with progress that’s significant but not dramatic.

January 15th, 2019: Difficult Social Battles

by  •

  • Sun in Capricorn square Pallas in Libra (25 deg)

Social (Libra) strategies (Pallas) are challenged by the rules of the establishment (or manager/father/boss/judge). Pallas always suggests some kind of battle (she’s named after Pallas Athena, the goddess of wisdom who wore armor) but in Libra, the fight is discreet and sheathed in clever words and a polite facade. Nonetheless, these strategies can be ultra-effective if deployed with skill (the argument that’s won with diplomacy or the tension that’s diffused with social engineering).

The Capricorn Sun will illuminate the issue while blocking the effectiveness of carefully balanced solutions. Rules will not allow for compromise, or one person may refuse to play the game as they lower the hammer. Today it will be difficult to succeed if you’re trying to win while coming out unscathed (and still looking like a nice person). Win-win will not be possible.

Accept that there will be friction and be prepared to deal with someone’s power trip or rigid boundaries.

January 12th, 2019: Reliable Relationships

  • Sun in Capricorn trine Juno in Taurus (22 deg)

A stable relationship is energized by commitment, rules and boundaries. Traditions support what you already have with another, and security can be confirmed by following well-defined paths. This aspect is for those who are serious about their partnership and know exactly what they want in a relationship.

This is not a romantic aspect, but it is very reassuring for those who like to know where they stand. There are no illusions here – just what you can see and touch. A business or personal union will move naturally along traditional lines – this is predictable energy. Excellent if you’re looking to confirm an agreement or focus on building something reliable.

January 5th, 2018: Look

  • Venus in Scorpio trine Chiron in Pisces (28 deg)

  • Venus in Scorpio inconjunct Uranus Rx in Aries (28 deg)

  • Vesta in Aquarius conjunct Black Moon Lilith (16 deg)

Venus

Continuing the Grand Water Trine, Venus/Chiron suggests deep healing via the full commitment to what you want or love. Venus in Scorpio is not casual – this is an immersion in the beautiful and ugly truths of a relationship, financial or self-esteem issue. The deeper you go, the more access you’ll have to compassion, empathy and acceptance of a wound (Chiron). This is about loving what hurts or finding beauty in what’s flawed and vulnerable.

Note that Venus’ inconjunct to Uranus can provide a shock to the above – some of what’s revealed will not be pleasant and you’ll have to make adjustments. Perhaps you discover more than you bargained for. The challenge will be to integrate this into the flow – can you handle uncomfortable truths?

Vesta/BML

Vesta is focus and Black Moon Lilith is taboo or unacceptable female energy. Here, the focus is on the outsider – the witch/rebel/dangerous woman holds the sacred flame. Aquarius makes this about the collective- perhaps a key issue that no one wanted to acknowledge is unavoidable. Everyone is looking and Lilith’s power is enhanced by the undivided attention.

Vesta is also about purity while BML is considered dark, sexual and “impure”. When the two unite, there are hints of sacred sexuality or devotion to the dark lady on the fringe. Consider where your attention is focused today and why: there’s a reason you can’t look away.

Along with today’s New Moon eclipse, beginnings have a heavy feel but they are weighted in absolute truths. You’ll know where you stand and those with the courage to accept reality will benefit.
