Mars will square sun, moon and Mercury in Libra next week. This energy will peak on Wednesday. Libra rules relationships. Mars agitates. I expect people to clash, and in fact, I’m already seeing this in consultations. I have Mars and Mercury in Libra and I often mediate things like this and/or try to help people to see the other person’s point of view. This action will often unwind the conflict.
This energy of this eclipse would support a person’s striving (Mars) to see the things from the other person’s angle. You might be able to unwind your own conflict, but I realized it’s more than that.
If you only consider your thoughts or feelings about a situation – then it’s “all about you”. Sorry, but that is exactly what that is, on it’s face.
Have you ever been in a relationship with someone who thinks it’s all about them? Gah.
I don’t like it. It hits my 3H and I ve been having problems with one of my siblings. Probably we won’t have any contact at all from now on. It’s been tough
My mars is also in Libra. I tend to be the mediator in the family.
The fact that the Moon is in Libra the day of the eclipse will influence the Mars in Cancer energy towards embodying that airey Venusian vibe, so that has the potential for diplomacy and striving for peace. Librans are rather hippies in essence. Although of course they do court conflict in search of the pleasures of balancing energy, so the scales can tip either way as part of the process. Ruler of the lunation and it’s stellium including Lilith and the south node is Venus who is bathing deep in Scorpio, but who is held in a supportive trine with Saturn and Mars. I think this augurs well for some positive/constructive releasing of old psychic material that’s holding us back from seeing the truth of ourselves, the distortions we’ve picked up as it were. A good deep cleansing, in effect.
Have you looked at the Oct 17th full moon Elsa? I was considering it today. It’s not technically an eclipse, although the nodes are still in sign. It looks a pressurised.
Ha ha! No I had not looked at it, but just did. My instant reaction was “Good God!”
It hits me and I can work with it… I will have to think about others, but the Venus Uranus opposition at the same time. Ouch.
Pluto direct on the 12th, it’s on its station degree 4th-21st of Oct. By that I mean .39 not 29* itself, so that’s the deep drill period.
Im more intrigued that the full moon will conjoin chiron, and sun will conj both arcturus and spica, exact! Good fortune culminating from tending to core wounds? Would be about time, really… tge ven/ura opposition will be waning already when the FM hits, but could be an interesting prelude, for a change. That mars square is the one thing that’s irritating – “get a life”?
Venus will trine Neptune too, I agree that’s an interesting prelude.
While uran is still sextile pluto. So basically the escape valve seems to be this kite: mars-ven-nept trine , and uran-pluto trine with neptune in the midpoint. Lets see how it pans out… my faith has been waning for sure though:/
That seems to be the testing point with Pluto back in Capricorn, triggering the fear/separation paradigm within us. Seems like a step backwards, but our other foot is still able to access faith/love/trust…but it consciously needs leaning into during waves of what I can only describe as the releasing of the trauma of the ages. This is new territory – the leaning into faith as a real and tangible essence within us – so there can be insecurity about it…but I’m finding, the only way out is through. 🙂
Having natal Libra moon and Cap Mars square natally, I know how to navigate these eneegies. Ish.
It’s a drive for intense connection. Sexual connection. Emotional connection. Intense energy.
It’s being undecided in wanting to act but not knowing WHEN/HOW/WHAT to do… it can ve SOOOO frustrating. The best way to ket off steam is to be fully engaged in something deeply satisfying or be physically active,either doing workout or well, being physically intimate.
At least, Mars is controlledby the moon not the other way around here.
You will know what feels right to do. If you do it or not, well, that’s up to you. But try not to take it out on others if you didn’t get to do it!
Take responsibility for being lazy/undecided and wasreful if this is the xase. Everything else will jyst piss people off. And for God’s sake, do it in style! It’s Libra for crying out loud…. play nice whileyou manipulate them at their own game….
Sorry for typos…. 😉
I have the south node in libra first house which is coming up to my nodal return in April officially and I have Jupiter in the 7th, which might make me very conscious of conflict.
But so far in the last two years, I have worked in close proximity to folks whose selfishness have cost people job opportunities. Such as a young girl may have lost an opportunity for a full time position which could offer benefits and be the startup of financial independence because my coworker reported daily on her working and for gossiping about her. The coworker that reported her is old enough to be the girl’s grandmother. And she expected me to cut off ties with speaking to the girl as well. I’m fraternizing with the enemy where she is concerned. How I see it is, the girl in question is 19. She’s growing up and to give her grace. (I was total pill in my late teens and 20’s. Lots of people gave me grace. Thank goodness)
it was on top of my venus pluto opposition. in the second house. helped me release a certain sense of victimhood/reimagine my own value…
