A Question Of Balance

The effects of the Libra/ Aries dynamic in the midst of catalytic transits

Seeking balance and beauty,

Peace and harmony,

Amidst uncertainty and instability as a result of conflict and fury.

Libra, the Seventh house along with Planet Venus indicate areas concerning marriage and business partnerships.

The relevance of finance and money has proven that the energy of money and the reality of it’s significance and its flow into and out of our lives seems to reflect as it can also indicate the way in which people interact with each other.

Libra is seeking balance through justice, fairness and in service of the integrity of the law. Libra is in opposition to the sign Aries on the Wheel so that there is a compelling tension between them both. It is magnetic how the stress and tension of this opposition in actuality constellates the chemistry of attraction which is at the heart of love and relationship.

This dynamic can be felt much more apparently at this moment what with Saturn and Pluto transiting in Capricorn. Almost acting like an allegorical volcano or earthquake or perhaps both. The suggestion I will say is for us to take things in stride. To go slow and breathe deep so we can find the higher ground as our Inner Guidance is guiding us to do.

At this writing the Moon has left its degree of fullness of 29 degrees Libra, then went v/c and is now 3 degrees Scorpio. The Sabian symbol for 3 degrees Scorpio is ; ” A house-raising party in a small village enlists the neighbors’ cooperation.” I read this to be expressing that at this powerful transformational “collective” hour, as the one that we are in now, perhaps this symbol offers a hopeful humanizing healing insight. That when we reach out and help build something as grand as a new home even and especially when it is not necessarily our own, that the metaphor indicated by the Sabian symbol is that there is a need for reflecting on a renewed sense of reality that ultimately serves to open up minds and hearts. This serves to bring into consciousness the reality of how we are interconnected as well as how we are also quite separate albeit quite whole as free individuals.

I believe this particular Full Moon in Libra is the beginning of an expansion of our social and interpersonal consciousness. A consciousness towards an experience of cooperation. The Aries Sun, Libra Moon dynamic is the current yet fleeting symbolic validation of the eternal need for interconnection with our partners that continuously forces us to learn to love, lust, come together and break apart so we can come together in such a way that enriches our understanding and compassion of self and other.

Perhaps this passage in time is a doorway through to some such understanding. For then out through the merciless madness of pathological narcissism, which is I believe to be one of the most destructive antiquated structures of all time could benefit from the unapologetic destructive power of this Saturn/Pluto transit time. The birth of a new paradigm so a healthier society can come into being.

When Venus and Mars are doing their dance, I am always hopeful!
