Tomorrow Venus exactly conjoins Saturn in Scorpio — an aspect we have been feeling build since last week, but which may manifest in a much more concrete form as the two planets align. The duo will also be roughly trine Chiron in Pisces — suggesting that you may encounter challenging emotions with deep, transformative potential, or the feeling of a \u2018full stop\u2019 on some issue. You might also feel like you\u2019re having to fit yourself into a rigid mold of some sort. <\/p>\n

The idea, however, is to use that container like a diving bell or submarine to get beneath any turbulence.<\/p>\n

Much could be said about having a \u2018sturdy container\u2019 in which to process feelings; the phrase \u2018safe container\u2019 is almost clich\u00e9 in many spiritual, healing and creative circles. <\/p>\n

Clich\u00e9s evolve for a reason, however — and with the building Pisces Full Moon this week ramping up our emotions and reactivity, you might find yourself appreciating Saturn\u2019s sturdy walls and the ability to set limits on how far certain situations can spin or flow out of control. <\/p>\n

Since the Full Moon is conjunct Salacia and square the Galactic Center, the sense of vast waters and vast space could be overwhelming for some; going vertical by diving into emotions rather than trying to dissipate them might prove more productive. Think of being in a submarine during a big storm: the surface waves might toss you around violently. But deep below the surface, all is calm. It might be darker down there, but you carry your own light source. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It\u2019s easier to hear and feel subtle messages and sensations when you\u2019re able to dive into still waters. This is not to suggest that this week will be rough, but many people are sensitive to Full Moons, and this one involves a very emotional sign and a very mental sign. If your more rational thoughts and your emotions are in conflict right now, you might see that manifest in your relationships.<\/p>\n

Plus, opportunities for healing aren\u2019t always as comfortable or easeful as we\u2019d like them to be. Chiron is an incredibly useful planet in terms of bringing things to our attention so that we can go about healing them or bringing facets of ourselves into alignment. Sometimes that is challenging, and if we have resisted or ignored Chiron\u2019s nudges in the past, it can feel like some kind of \u2018crisis\u2019. <\/p>\n

Luckily, the aspect from Chiron to Venus and Saturn is a trine: easy flow. Chiron seems to be greasing the wheels here (or, more appropriately, the gate or sluice, given that Saturn is involved in a water sign) so you can slip beneath the waves once the Venus-Saturn conjunction resolves. <\/p>\n

How deep you have to go to get to that \u201clow-lying, still water\u201d may vary. Just keeping diving — we\u2019ll be meeting Salacia, the goddess of calm waters, just as the Full Moon arrives and resolves another possible layer of tension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
