9/16/22 ✨ Venus Square Mars + Sun Opposite Neptune
✨ Happy Venus Day!
SUN IN VIRGO | MOON IN GEMINI
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I attract what I am.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♍️ VENUS SQUARE ♊️ MARS (14º) 11:48 AM PT
All’s fair in love and war… and so goes the tale of Venus squaring Mars. The planet of harmony clashes with the planet of aggression, creating conflict in our need for peace and our need for action. Theses planets represent our feminine and masculine energy, causing attraction and tension between opposite gender expressions as well. This is a great day to collide between the sheets to work out any aggravation or thirst. But fair warning- starting a relationship now could be hot and heavy at first, but it would not be an indication of the true nature of the attraction.
♍️ SUN OPPOSITE ♓️ NEPTUNE rx (24º) 3:20 PM PT
Confusion is not just possible today. It’s likely. The sun opposes Neptune this afternoon, fogging our awareness. While the Virgo sun seeks clarity and control, Neptune blurs boundaries. We might find ourselves being overly self sacrificing or unable to stand up for what we know to be true. But on the other hand, it could be hard to discern fact from fiction, making us weight our rational mind with our imagination. We could find ourselves questioning our ideals.

THE MOON:
🌖 WANING GIBBOUS MOON IN GEMINI ♊️
The waning Gemini moon asks us to release what’s on our mind through conversation and writing. Our words are our greatest asset to process our emotions. Talking with friends and sharing the realizations we’ve been having during this moon cycle is a powerful way to loosen our grip.
♊️ MOON TRINE ♎️ MERCURY rx (6º) 2:00 AM PT
You might find yourself dreaming about the past as Mercury retrograde harmonizes with the moon overnight. Insights can come through with ease, but it might feel more like deja vu. You might even feel like a past version of yourself- especially when it comes to your internal dialogue.
♊️ MOON CONJUNCT ♊️ MARS AND SQUARE ♍️ VENUS (14º) 5:00 PM PT
Friday night gets spicy as the moon joins the square dance between Venus and Mars. We’re feeling more aggressive and action-oriented, giving us plenty of motivation to put ourselves out there and socialize. But a harsh 90º angle to Venus gives us a craving pleasure, which can make it easy to overindulge. You might find people (or yourself) coming on especially strong tonight!
♊️ MOON SEXTILE ♈️ CHIRON rx (15º) 7:00 PM PT
Conversations tonight can trigger old wounds, but they could also create an opportunity for healing. Expansive interactions can show you new perspectives about your own wounding or trauma. The awareness alone is powerful.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Speed up or slow down? Chase or attract? As Venus and Mars clash in a 90º square, sexual tension is at an all-time high! Feminine and masculine energies will feel especially drawn to one another, but passions could be too hot to handle. Especially as the Virgo sun opposes Neptune today, causing confusion and delusion. It could get easy to get swept up in a fantasy, but we’re not seeing clearly now. The waning Gemini moon favors using words to process emotions. You might find yourself in cathartic conversations. Words come with ease- even in our writing. The moon harmonizes with Mercury Retrograde overnight, bringing through memories in dreams or making us review past ideas upon waking. Tonight, the moon joins the tension between Venus and Mars, making us more assertive in our pursuit for pleasure. Steamy vibes for sure! A sextile to Chiron can open us to sexual healing… or simply new realizations about the journey we’re on now.
