The Moon is finishing up her journey through Cancer.
Today she trines (brakes off) a retrograde Neptune at 11:27AM EDT, squares Mars at 2:16PM EDT (feisty, disagreeable energy, feeling pressured to act, maybe home/family vs what we want, both planets strong in their home signs) and finally goes void off her monthly opposition (old power struggles, we've been here before) with a retrograde Pluto at 4:13PM EDT. She is void until 8:40PM EDT when she moves into Leo (and mutual reception with the Sun, so a smoother transition than most months).
This is also the day, the Sun in Cancer meets up with Black Moon Lilith (what the Moon did at the New Moon on Tuesday) and Pallas in Taurus trines a retrograde Pluto.
A light on Black Moon Lilith in Cancer spotlights the ways we don't fit in with family, old/soul memories of being cast out/feeling unsafe. Being shamed for being needy/dependent which maybe has created, among other things, an inability to ask for help or even to help. Stifled nurturing. Awkwardness with mothering situations. Food issues. Mommy issues. Annoyance with people who are, even appropriately, needy. Family secrets/lies can come out. Situations can activate our BML wound or the collective wound of our Milky Way Galaxy of mother-less children.
Black Moon Lilith is starting a new annual cycle with the Sun. Our old shame/victim stories don't have to come with us into this new chapter if we have compassion for our awkwardness/anger/fear knowing that there is a very old/very real pain at its root - even if we can't remember it!
This is all happening in a square to Jupiter. Jupiter is in Aries. This is the house in our chart that is experiencing ADVANTAGES if we aren't afraid to take confident action/a risk. The Sun/Black Moon Lilith in Cancer is the house that is requiring adjustments to get those ADVANTAGES. Sort of what is standing in our way, something we need to register/CLEARLY SEE/accept so that our advantage doesn't turn into a disadvantage through awkward/over-the-top action because it is based in FEAR or a deer in the headlight/crab into her shell FREEZE.
We can choose to feel faith (Jupiter) over fear (BML wound).
(yoga/processes to release stuck energies around our bladder, kidneys, adrenals and lower back will help)
At the same time, our wise warrior Pallas in Taurus has reached her exact trine with a powerful (and retrograde) Pluto.
This is her (our) final aspect before she moves into Gemini next week.
Pallas in Taurus is all about the practical plans/strategies we need to be stable/secure, to grow something healthy, something that lasts. She offers us excellent guidance as to what's practical/wise (hint - it will be the thing that is falling into place). The trine is a smooth aspect, the energies are woven together instead of thrown into a pile/knot or tossed at our head like a football. Pluto is a 'commit or quit' aspect. In Capricorn, he wants us to take something pretty bloody seriously, so we are asked to GET SOMETHING UNDER CONTROL.
Merge. Purge. Step into our authentic POWER.
Next month, Uranus, the North Node and Mars are setting up to turn our Taurus house upside down, so this Earth trine today, the thing that is falling into place NOW - Taurus/Capricorn, Pallas/Pluto - is likely a chance to smoothly/smartly release what is dying/dead, commit to a stable plan to simplify our life, figure out a way to get a grip on something that is out of control, but not out of our control. These are Earth signs, so this won't be some pie-in-the-sky or abstract thing. This will be something we can hold in our hands/take to the bank.
We just need to be able to see things as they actually are. Practical plans and actions are EMPOWERING.
Do what makes sense/cents.
