Scorpio Moon, 4th quarter

Moon remains in a deep dive today through Scorpio, sign of transformation. This is not an emotionally comfortable Moon given that we are in the midst of Aquarius Sun, which squared it yesterday; there are unresolved, stinging tensions to address crawling out from under heavy and well placed rocks. Moon will trine Neptune in Pisces at 11:47 AM EST, heightening intuition and allowing deeply hidden emotion to surface. This is an aspect best worked with in a spiritual or a creative context. Moon will make a sextile to Pluto in Capricorn at 9:10 PM EST, one more hint from Pluto about whatever needs to be released right now in order to move forward with more clarity and breaking ties from the past. Moon will follow with a sextile to Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn shortly after Midnight, further encouraging us to deal with old connections and loose ends. The dynamic of Mercury Retro shifted considerably yesterday as it moved from future-oriented Aquarius back into ruminating and obsessive Capricorn, where it will stubbornly force Pluto issues once again on Friday, just as Venus Stations Direct.

This week entails heavy intensity and demanding emotional work that will dredge up whatever we’ve been putting off, thanks to Pluto’s push for transformation. Pluto was conjunct Venus at the very beginning of Venus Retrograde, which defined the entire Retrograde as not only a realignment of relationships and valued, but also as an underlying process of the need to let go and release that which holds us back. Now, we have Pluto conjunct Mercury Retrograde as Venus Stations Direct, so we can expect that communication regarding relationships and resources may be difficult during this time, and surprising revelations may come to light. This is just going to be one of those times where if you’ve been doing the deep, dark, soul-searching work that Pluto demands of us, it’s time for the building of new structures to commence…but if you’ve missed or ignored Pluto’s guidance, it becomes more demanding until the changes that must be made become undeniable. We are under a Scorpio Moon today, and Pluto is the modern ruler of Scorpio. Right now, Venus that was conjunct Pluto at Station Retrograde on December 19 is beginning to slow down to Station Direct. It is at 11’14” Capricorn, and will Station at 11’5”, so we have less than 10 minutes to traverse between now and Friday; it’s grinding here at this degree, emphasizing whatever it’s preparing to bring as it reaches the point of standstill. As always, please IGNORE the ridiculous barrage of astro memes that will inevitably and misleadingly try to tell you it’s time to PUSH FORWARD upon Station. That isn’t how this works. Station is a standstill point at which we reflect and process, Venus isn’t perceptibly moving yet, it’s intensified and bringing the lessons. Station is a time of pause, of epiphany and realization, not time to push and leap, and doing so upon Station is foolish. We begin to feel this crucial, final stage today, and it’s important to honor it by letting go, releasing, and preparing for the next part of the journey.
