Cosmic Weather:

“If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is – infinite.” – William Blake

This Sunday, the empowering Sun is making its annual conjunction with imaginative Neptune in Pisces (7:42 am). Mingling with our more whimsical or ethereal side may be a welcome adjunct or alternative to the everyday trappings of the mundane realm now. This is often an excellent aspect for any creative endeavors as it can notably add to our envisioning ability. It is also possible that we are filled with a special sense of purpose (Sun) today that we perhaps had not really known or felt before. Sun-Neptune tends to be very supportive of transpersonal activities that transport us out of the domain of the ego and into the sphere of selfless service or into other outlets that somehow reflect or echo our shared humanity. It also can greatly sensitize us to what others are feeling as well as to what is going on in our surroundings. Our intuition may also be a more formidable force now and something we might want to lean into today.

The shadow side of this aspect can include, among other things, behavior that is addictive, escapist, delusional, or deceptive. Too, if it seems that our physical energies are on the decline now, it may be a good idea for us to perhaps take a quiet break or retreat from our regular routine and immerse ourselves in outlets that tend to replenish or restore the Spirit, such as meditation, reading inspirational works, or being by the water.

One famous figure in history that we may all be able to extract some inspiration from today is American Red Cross founder and self-taught nurse Clara Barton, born on Christmas Day in 1821. Barton is a perfect template of someone who publicly embodied the more elevated or higher-frequency side of the Sun-Neptune energy. She had her natal Sun, applying one degree, to an exact conjunction with both Neptune – and progressive Uranus – in the self-mastery sign of Capricorn. During the Civil War, Barton courageously risked her life to bring supplies and support to soldiers in the field.

“I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.” – Clara Barton

Barton created the American Red Cross at age 59 and ran it for 23 years. She was also a noteworthy civil rights advocate at a time before women had the right to vote.

Meanwhile, the Waxing Moon will also enter commanding Leo this afternoon (3:32 pm), a possible chance for us to showcase our leadership ability as well as to relay or develop our talents/natural-born gifts. Too, later this week on Friday, we have the Worm Moon in Virgo: the last Full Moon of winter which also symbolizes the return of the robins and other birds to feed.

*All times EDT

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Astrology January 27, 2020: Venus Conjuncts Dreamy Neptune

Cosmic Weather:

“Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.” William Shakespeare

We start out our Monday with waxing Luna still afloat in the mystical waters of Pisces, decidedly adding an “otherworld” feel to the day. Neptune, the ruler of Pisces, is also having its annual conjunction with Venus (ruler of love, beauty, art, and values), an alignment that’s occurring at 16 degrees of Pisces (at 3:00 pm).

With sweet Venus and transpersonal Neptune conjoined in the heavens, our capacity to display compassion or to show kindness or forgiveness to others is potentially enhanced. There can also be a deep yearning for an ideal or more selfless kind of love, as well as more of a general willingness to see others now in the best possible light, or to at least give them, the benefit of the doubt. On the shadow side, this influence can also make us more emotionally vulnerable, which could lead to, among other things, our being taken advantage of or deceived (including falling prey to self-deception).

On another level, Venus-Neptune energy is excellent for any creative endeavors, largely because “visionary” Neptune, the ruler of our imagination, is able to naturally tune into the non-physical realm with ease, thereby allowing artistic Venus to transmute that experience into actual physical form. “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.” Michelangelo

*All times EST.

Tarot Card For The Day:

It’s “The Lovers” card, which often comes up when we have choices to make about our relationships. Too, sometimes when this card appears, there’s an element of self-sacrifice (Neptune) attached to those choices. In general, The Lovers suggests a desire to want to be involved in either a relationship or something else that is meaningful, that allows a person a chance to get outside of themselves, to connect to something larger.

Also, when I was shuffling the cards, “The World” card fell out of the deck twice, along with the Ace of Swords. The World card is the very last of the Major Arcana cards (in the Tarot) and signifies the ending of a cycle. It also represents kind of a “pause period” before significant new action is undertaken. The World card can also foster an acceptance of life as it is, with all its many ups and downs. The Ace of Swords also suggests that we have good mental clarity at our disposal today (Mercury in Aquarius), as well as potential receptivity to incorporating, advancing, or entertaining new ideas.

Numerology For The Day:

The “27th” day of January suggests a focus on humanitarian issues, compassion, as well as a capacity to extend tolerance towards those who hold beliefs perhaps different from our own. (Moon in Pisces).

Born On This Day: Musician and composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, in 1756 (d. in 1791). Mozart is quoted as saying: Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.

Hope it’s a good one!

Astrology March 26, 2011: “Seductive Love” Venus conjunct Neptune

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Seduction is always more singular and sublime than sex and it commands the higher price.” Jean Baudrillard

The Moon continues in “grounded” Capricorn urging us to apply “common sense” to our feelings and emotions. Although, the Moon’s monthly conjunction to “controlling” Pluto (11:49 am EDT) could pose a few challenges for us if we venture outside of our boundaries and try to exert too much pressure or influence on others.

This is an excellent “purge” aspect, though, so venting could be a good thing now, if done in a mindful fashion that does not unduly alienate or involve mud-slinging or the re-opening of old, hurtful wounds. Pluto is associated with the subconscious and under its activated ray, things buried deep inside of us tend to rise to the surface for review.

Also, it’s a great time to recycle or declutter on the home front or at the office. Perhaps one of the premier times of the month to do so. On the other hand, treasure-hunters may want to do some antiquing, as Moon-Pluto can be favorable for unearthing “rare jewels.”

Connection queen Venus also forms a tense, 135-degree aspect to “withholding” Saturn in partnership Libra (5:04 pm EDT).  We may feel a little more cut off or blocked in expressing our feelings. Saturn sometimes coincides with giving a voice to our fears.

However, this low feeling may not linger too long, as we also have love maven Venus conjuncting magical Neptune (9:40 pm EDT), a time when we are more inclined to “idealize love.” Putting our lover on a pedestal or making great “sacrifices” for the sake of love, may be part of our mindset now, as Venus-Neptune can be a very seductive, alluring influence. We do need to be mindful of the fact, though, that “all that glitters” may not be gold. Because, on the shadow side, “spell-binding” Venus-Neptune can be deceptive. We are also more emotionally vulnerable now.

Also, new people that come into our lives may be on a “different wavelength” from us. This influence has been known to produce some rather “odd pairings.”

Too, with Neptune symbolizing our link to the divine, Venus-Neptune, at the highest levels, can equate to “selfless love,” or an ability for demonstrating deep compassion and sensitivity with others. Therefore, it’s an excellent time to do charitable work or to dole out good deeds. It is also a very creative influence, perfect for any artistic renderings or performances, including dancing, as Neptune rules the feet.

Venus also moves into Neptune-ruled Pisces tomorrow, so today is sort of a “test-run” for possible things to come. Venus stays in Pisces until April 21. (Refer to my Venus in Pisces blog post for more details.)
