Mars and Venus are major players this week as we prepare for a New Moon in 19 degrees of Sagittarius on December 11, 2015. The stage was set for the new moon on December 3rd with a 4th quarter moon in Virgo. The theme of the 4th quarter moon phase is to reorganize and plan for the upcoming new moon, which Virgo is ideally suited for.
But on December 4th, Venus enters the sign of
Scorpio, where it will remain until December 30th. Venus in Scorpio thrives on crisis and
intensity. Love, money and self-esteem
will all feel the heat of Venus in Scorpio.
Venus in Scorpio is also good for purging and releasing toxic
situations. It will be beneficial for
Scorpios because it will attract good things in the area of love, money, and
general good will. At some point, every
Scorpio will experience the feel good transit of Venus conjuncting their Sun,
which will enhance their charm. I will
have Venus conjuncting my Sun on December 22nd, my Venus on December
26th, and my Saturn on December 16th, which may be more of a
buzzkill transit. Of course, it could
just cause me to restrict my Christmas gift spending. But I will derive the
benefit of the Venus in Scorpio transit immediately because when Venus enters
Scorpio on December 4th, it conjuncts my Mercury.
But Mars in Libra is literally squaring off with Pluto in
Capricorn on December 6th in 13 degrees of each sign. This is going to be tough because Mars in
Libra wants balance, fairness and justice in relationships but it can be
downright confrontational and competitive if it feels there is injustice in the
mix. Pluto in Capricorn, on the other
hand, wants to transform outworn aspects of government, finances and society in
general. But Pluto tends to accomplish
this feat by generating situations of imbalance. This is definitely going to be a time when we
feel like our buttons are being pushed.
Tempers could flare and we can expect to experience feelings of urgency
over imbalance and injustice. Repressed
anger could erupt. Mars in Libra is averse to conflict, but the square from
Pluto in Capricorn could be the tipping point for some major explosions. My Libra ascendant is in the crossfire of
this highly charged aspect, so I suspect that I will need to exercise some
self-restraint or risk a major blow-up on this day.
The saving grace that we do have on December 6th
is the Sun in Sagittarius sextiling Mars in Libra. This aspect believes in fair
play and allows us to draw on energy reserves that allow us to control our
aggressions and instincts. Let’s hope
that this aspect trumps whatever volatile issues that arise from that Mars
Pluto square.
Mars in Libra will also be a heavy hitter in the New Moon
in 19 degrees of Sagittarius on December 11th. Mars in 16 degrees of Libra will be
inconjunct Chiron in 17 degrees of Pisces.
Major adjustments may be required between self-serving action and
healing understanding. I would be lying if I didn’t stress the importance of a
healing theme but with a caution to not inflict more pain on others or assume a
mantle of martyrdom. I know that I will
not be immune to the effects of this New Moon because Mars will be conjunct my
ascendant and Chiron inconjunct it while the moon itself will be opposing my
natal Gemini moon in the 8th house.
I guess it is a no brainer that finances will be a major theme of this
New Moon for me.
Mars will remain in Libra until January 3, 2016. It enters the sign of Scorpio at 9:32 a.m. on
that day. Mars will be infinitely more comfortable in Scorpio than it was in
Libra because Mars was considered the traditional ruler of Scorpio until Pluto
was discovered. Mars is very direct in
Scorpio. The same cannot be said for
Mars in Libra; it is considered to be in detriment and can trigger some passive
aggressive behavior.
The north node moved into Virgo recently, which has an
underlying theme of service to others.
In that spirit of pursuing my path as a healer, I am channeling that north
node and Jupiter in Virgo energy by offering my Reiki services. If you are in
the Boston area, please consider getting a Reiki treatment at Acupuncture for
Everyone in Copley Square to destress, revitalize and remove blockages to
