Some form of tension is foreseeable whenever any two objects are in square aspect. When the Moon is involved, it’s bound to be personal. A concurrent lunar conjunction with the asteroid named House further implies personal space as the subject and\/or location of tension.<\/p>\n
House is one of 872 asteroids discovered by the greatest astronomer you’ve never heard of, Eleanor Helin. First observed from the Mount Palomar observatory on December 7, 1988, House is one of many examples of how serendipity plays a role when asteroids are named. House’s discovery chart found it in Cancer, where the Moon rules and where issues of home, and the conditions within it, are highlighted. Sunday’s lunar conjunction with House is in Leo, ruled by the Sun. Given that the Sun has nearly three weeks remaining in Taurus, where the Moon is exalted, the tension implied by Sunday’s opening quarter lunar phase goes beyond the geometric aspect to take on a feeling of discomfort at home, a feeling which is reinforced by another aspect called a yod.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A yod is an aspect combined of three points on the zodiac relating to each other in the shape of a letter ‘Y’. In astrology, yods are usually interpreted as the two planets occupying the upper ‘fork’ of the y-shape, combining to put some uncomfortable pressure on the third object at the end of the fork’s handle. On Sunday, the object at the bottom will be the Moon-House conjunction. To make it even more interesting, the two planets applying the pressure will be in a friendly relationship with the Sun.<\/p>\n
The Sun will have a busy weekend. On Saturday, the Taurus Sun will exact a supportive sextile to Chiron in Pisces. Just hours before the first lunar quarter, Sol will reach back to Capricorn’s long-term tenant, Pluto, through a flowing trine. Both sextiles and trines are considered to be affirmations of sorts, with the constituent energies reinforcing and investing in each other. <\/p>\n
In this particular case, the involvement of the Sun implies a conscious coalition, which is all well and good for the parties involved. When one considers, however, that Chiron and Pluto are the two objects in a yod to the Leo conjunction of the Moon and asteroid House, the coalition begins to look like more of a self-interested cartel than an altruistic collaboration. That gives us some idea of what just may be behind any nagging lack of comfort that my be present where you live this weekend.<\/p>\n
All over our planet, the concept of home is under siege. The ongoing criminal enterprise of asserting shock and awe for its own sake has left no home on Earth safe from the United States military establishment. For less than the price of a laptop, you can purchase a drone of your own and spy on your neighbors. Any illusion of personal privacy and security provided and protected by rule of law has long since been lost to legalized forfeiture of property and person upon the flimsiest demand of arbitrary authority. Such are the times we live in. Yet somehow, many who are so besieged persist in taking the tension out on those share their circumstances. Ask yourself, would it not be better to assuage your own circumstances by actually acting to provide aid and comfort to the friends and family you live with? It can be as simple as a greeting of acknowledgement.<\/p>\n
The symbolic tension being applied to the Leo conjunction of Moon and House this weekend can be both exacerbated and relieved from within your own home. It need not require a lot of dialog or processing, although that can be a very good thing. It can start with the light of simple courtesy illuminating your home. This weekend it would not be a lot of trouble and it would do a lot of good to make some simple agreements with those who share your besieged residence. Agree to say good morning when you awake and good night before you sleep. Welcome other people home and wish them a good day when they leave. If you have joy, share it. If another has pain, offer compassion, and always ask what you can do to help anyone engaged in a task. There is power in such protocols and it will turn the astrology to your advantage.<\/p>\n
Working with this weekend’s astrology is harnessing the supportive relationship between the Sun, Chiron and Pluto to empower yourself through Pluto, heal through Chiron and consciously direct empathetic focus on your home, instead of pressure, through the Sun. As the Moon conjoins with House to receive that focus, you can regain some yourself. While there are a host of complex circumstances in the world that function to take away your power, there are also many simple opportunities for you to take that power back where you live.<\/p>\n

The Moon reaches its first quarter stage in Leo this weekend. That means speedy Luna will already have moved on ahead from its New Moon conjunction with the Taurus Sun last week, opening a separation of 90 degrees, otherwise known as a square.
