August 14, 2022: Sun opposite Saturn – Ruby Shoe Astrology

  • Decreasing incompatibility between Pisces Moon and Leo Sun (21 degrees)

  • Mars in Taurus, Pluto Rx in Capricorn (26 deg)

  • Mercury in Virgo Chiron Rx in Aries (16 degrees)

In contrast to Saturn, the Sun has restrictions on ego, self-expression and celebration. Those restrictions may be anticipated or there may be an external authority that says “Stop”. There will be additional responsibilities that seem to dull your brilliance and deprive you of appreciation, but the reality is that Saturn ultimately rewards you if you put in the work. Today’s pressure may focus on you so that you can become stronger and brighter in future.

For some, it could be the result or the end.

This opposition is part of the waning inconjunct which is a difficult adjustment after the August 11 full moon. So in addition to the cool shadow of Saturn Rx, the Moon in Pisces is reminding you that something must be sacrificed.

Not really a great day for pride but sometimes it just happens – you have to accept the restrictions and make sacrifices. The trick is not to give up – you are not becoming a victim, you are not giving up all your might. You’re taking on a responsibility that others may be unaware of at the moment – no applause for what you’re doing. And when it really matters – you work, you make sacrifices and no one notices, but that means it’s the real deal because you’re doing it for yourself and people at some point in the future. Will information.

Mercury’s fifth for Chiron adds to a bit more trouble. There are solutions but they must be communicated carefully. Focusing excessively on what is wrong will only add to the pain. And in some cases there may be no solution – you may have to live with the wound. Emphasizing improvement or offering “helpful” criticisms will only make things worse – tread lightly and be prepared to stop talking when someone says they don’t need help. For yourself, consider whether certain details should be left alone for a while. Bleeding the wound continuously will cause blood to come out of it.

So all of the above is sticky. Luckily, you have the mighty Mars/Pluto trine that can help you. Grounded actions can be powerful, causing major physical changes. But you must go slowly, be patient and commit to the work (which takes you back to Sun/Saturn). The effort will come easily (though not quickly) so you won’t have to struggle to make those changes. But you have to be committed. Mars/Pluto is the tremendous force that connects unconscious impulses to outward motion so once you are in the groove no one will be able to stop you.

Scorpio daily horoscope – 31 May 2022

The energy around you is in tune with a lot of emotions and it’s all for the power of tomorrow’s new moon, and it will continue to act on you and affect your emotions and your heartbeat in the weeks to come. You have a remarkable ability, in the best of times, to pluck the depths of your and other people’s feelings. But still more because of the intensity of what is happening internally and externally. If your emotions are telling you that you feel that way, there’s no such thing as too intense for you today, but you can still keep a lid on it if you have to. What superpower is your moon revealing? Do you know that with the appearance of the moon we can make our dreams come true? I know because I’ve been doing it for 20+ years and the proof is now irrefutable.

Mercury has entered its shadow zone on the 25th of Virgo – to look back and complete our transformation into Libra and Virgo

The shadow region is defined by the period where a planet turns retrograde, and where it goes directly after the retrograde period. In this case, Mercury turns retrograde on 9th September into Libra. It will retrograde back to the 25th of Virgo, where it stabilizes directly on 2nd October, the birthdays of Mahatma Gandhi and Groucho Marx. It casts a shadow zone between 25 Virgo and 9 Libra, and on August 21 Mercury enters 25 Virgo, the degree where it will go SD in early October. I will be writing some articles about the upcoming retrograde which will be posted as we get closer. So now we begin an 8-week round of three phases on the first 9 degrees of Libra and the last 6 degrees of Virgo. We will have old Virgo and Libra returns related to people and events that affected our lives in the past. It would be “looking back” in memory of past work and partners, past service and the people we once looked up to as equals. It brings up memories of former Virgo and Libra experiences so that...
