Sometimes it really is like clockwork even though my teacher used to say that the planets don’t run on “train time.”
Venus and Saturn go direct and clarity comes. Both Venus in Gemini and Saturn in Libra (in trine because they are air signs) spoke to our relationships. Venus = love. Saturn = maturity.
Were you confused during the retrogrades or, at the very least, suffering setbacks? And now you are free? Your mind is free? Your heart is free? I feel back on track. Perhaps the Moon in Aquarius making a Grand Trine in air yesterday sharpened the focus.
But ponder this issue. See if it’s true. Are you MORE clear now?
Mars now in Libra tells a similar story. The passion (Mars) to relate (Libra) and to relate appropriately (Libra), to get it right, to put it right.
I’ve been watching Mad Men lately, Season One. I know I’m late to this famous show but I was busy with some other shows 🙂 I also don’t have a television, only Netflix. Anyway, I am fascinated by the character of Betty Draper who looks like a doll and this surface, of course, is a mask. Complexity beneath, rage beneath. This isn’t a new characterization of Woman but I like the way her story is unfolding.
This character would have Libra or Libra Rising no doubt. A stellium in Libra. Probably with a Scorpio Venus. She’s crammed with desire but has been taught to be polite and gentle even when rejected or offended. Always pleasant. And yet…
Are you clear like glass? Are you beyond doubt? How’s your mask doing?
And, you know, that rage, her rage, your rage is also a mask It just hides something else…
One more point about Mars (rage) in Libra (relating): Libra is known for indecision 😉 Could this transit throw even more options into your heart? Or will the drive to marry (Libra) and I mean marry a person or an idea or a course of action… will this Marsy fire be braver than any and all confusion?
Food for thought, for the Sun in Cancer.

Mars is going to be all up in my stellium. I was so ready for it to get the hell out of my 12th, but now it will trigger my Libra powerhouse and I’m saying “fuck” in every sentence. Fuck.
I was burned a couple weeks ago when I was fired from my job. The last 9 months there were ridiculous and offended all of my Virgo-ness and need for order, clarity, and honesty. There was a lot of manipulation going on and not a single person wanted to bring it out on dry land and confront the issues. They just talked about each other, talked about me and ran my name through the dirt, and where screwing with serious company stuff. Childish crap. So I confronted the situation and was fired. When I initially brought it to the office manager I was nervous and trying to remain calm. Shit, I new Mars was on my ascendant, and I didn’t want to be too abrasive. Then she exploded on me! Then I retaliated and EXPLODED on her. Chased her out the door. The do-gooders and highly sexist men I worked with were in shock at the brazen bold bitch that popped out of me. Saintly was the role to be played by women there.
Fuck that repressed b.s.
I feel like a new woman.
Like I’m me again. Although jobless.
I think I felt my mars conjunct north node that day.
Mars in Cancer snaps sometimes. No matter how much Libra:-)
I just KNOW this is one of those UGH UGH UGH blessings in disguise. Despite the stress and being treated unfairly. It’s like rye toast with butter and jam. It’s just a GOOD THING. You are so above and beyond this. You’ll see. You may think who am I to make such pronouncements and yet I do! ((((((AJ))))))))
And remember: Jupiter in Gemini is going to be making nice with ALL THAT LIBRA
Funny you say that AMP, cause I was just reading over our email stuffs last night and was thinking to myself “Oh shit…” especially about the tarot you did… It was so eerie because it totally fits. It’s like I tried so hard to “will” myself.
I believe it will get better too:-) and in so many ways it already has, seriously.
And you totally know what you’re talking about Cancer Laday, without a doubt!!
(:-D
Well… I’m glad I was right of course but sad about the reason 🙁
what are you implying is it that the rage-mask is hiding Aliza?
I don’t know yet, CW. I’ve only watched a few episodes of the show 🙂 I do know though, in general, that any person (man or woman) who is raised to be an object of beauty and nothing else will have enough rage inside them to destroy worlds.
I have rage and I am interpreting your post to mean that my rage is acting like a mask to hide something else. I wish I knew what it were…is it a defense mechanism to push people away? Or is it really that the rage is warranted? It was at one time but as the argument goes – it’s time to let go of it. But I can’t or won’t so is it intentional then? Hmm…
I don’t doubt the rage is warranted. But, generally speaking, what is at the very bottom of these strong strong emotions?
hurt, disappointment, discouragement, frustration, anger…ANGER!
I’ve been watching the first season of Mad Men too!! Everyone was telling me to watch it and I was behind so I’m getting it through Netflix. Love it. Making me want to take up smoking tho. lol I relate to Betty Draper VERY much. *sigh*
So interesting to me, kma. Because I find her interesting but I don’t relate to her AT ALL. I couldn’t be more different! Just goes to show… 🙂 what an interesting world!
Betty Draper def has libra rising 😉
