Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions

- Venus (12th/Cancer) sesquisquare Juno (5th/Sagittarius R) – describes frustration with your own ability to nurture self and others within relationships while still maintaining good boundaries

The Ascendant – Leo – a masculine, Fixed sign that suggests that behavior is purposeful, self-disciplined, and reliable. Although typically generous and sincere, Leo individuals can be arrogant and prideful, and need to learn to balance power with compassion.
Black Moon Lilith ~ 11th House/Taurus — You may resist change while in Taurus and it may be difficult to move out of your comfort zone. In the 11th House of relationships, interactions may be challenging with Lilith’s darker side impacting expectations of others. A sextile with Venus advises you to listen to your instincts where partners are concerned. A trine with Pluto R helps you transform your inner strength to heal old wounds that impact your interactions with others (also involving a sextile with Chiron). All in all, a new strategy may be required going forward (sextile Pallas), particularly surrounding partnerships (opposite Juno R).
Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful and respectful manner.
- Mars sextile The North Node/trine the South Node counsels to be aware of Higher Self influences and the spiritual message and/or opportunity they bring
- Chiron trine the South Node indicates that profound growth from a difficult situation or illness in your life may benefit others
- Eris semisquare The North Node/sesquisquare The South Node reinforces the need for self-control while asserting oneself. In Aries, Eris balances the feminine with the masculine, the goddess as spiritual warrior, and speaking truth to power may need some reevaluation.
Lunar Phase ~ Mother Phase, Full, at 11:40 AM PDT at 03°Cap27
Mansion of the Moon – 22th – Caadaldeba – 1°Capricorn; head of Capricorn; encourages prisoners and servants to flee, cures disease
Retrograde ~ Jupiter – inner reflection is warranted and in Pisces, it centers on discovering inner truth; Juno – suggests a look inward in how you select, commit to, and interact with partners in your life; Saturn – reassess boundaries and how your structure your life; Pluto – inner transformation is favored; Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Neptune (1 day), Chiron (21 days), Pallas (19 days)
Polarity – the polarities are in relative balance with the feminine or receptive response slightly stronger
Elemental Influence ~ The Water (emotions, compassion, empathy, flexibility) and Fire (creativity, initiation, motivation) elements are having the greatest impact today.
Ray Influences – significant changes are in bold
- 1st (will/power) – strong impact (increase) – an high level of creativity or inspiration is present today
- 2nd (love/wisdom) – low to medium impact – extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding may be challenging today
- 3rd (active intelligence) – strong impact (increase) – adaptability to new ideas and understanding is stronger today
- 4th (harmony through conflict) – low impact (increase)– signals that cooperative efforts and understanding cause and effect may be somewhat challenging today
- 5th (concrete knowledge and science) – medium impact (decrease) – suggests that scientific knowledge is having a lesser effect on our mindset and decisions
- 6th (devotion/idealism) – low impact (decrease) – The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism is a tricky influence in that if the 2nd Ray is less, we typically see an increase in gullibility and a single-minded approach. In other words, too much ideology or too much devotion affects our ability to view our experiences or beliefs in a realistic manner. With the 6th Ray’s lesser effect, perception/ideology theoretically may be easier to manage but with the 2nd Ray having less of an impact on wisdom, keeping gullibility in check may be difficult.
- 7th (ceremonial order/magick)- strong impact (increase) – organization and general order are easily managed today
