Astrology for Wednesday, December 2

Venus in Scorpio is trine Neptune in Pisces and Moon in Cancer - all of the water signs are activated, increasing our intuitiveness and sensitivity. When Venus is active, we cannot act alone; another person is required to fulfill the action. This is a rather pleasant and dreamy time. You may feel drawn to glamorizing home base or simply being warm and compassionate toward those who need help.

Since Scorpio is a natural psychologist and Moon in Cancer also involves helping others through health care and Neptune brings a focus on dreaming, pay attention to your dreams and your health. More negatively, because no aspect is good or bad, but wears both faces, beware of falling into facile assumptions or fantasies, or, worse, conspiracy theories.

Right at the midpoint of those trines, Venus is opposing Lilith and Uranus in Taurus. If you begin a relationship today that shakes up the status quo, whether it lasts or not it lasts is not as important as the fact that some part of you needs needs something new, something out of the ordinary.

Mundanely, Pluto in Capricorn is till square Mars and Eris in Aries. Rage and rot at the highest levels in the past administration. Like Venus in Scorpio, Pluto in Capricorn makes a difficult aspect with Uranus in Taurus. We are in uncharted Uranian territory, with a former President who will not concede defeat and who seeks to pardon, first Flynn, now his family, and ultimately likely to try to pardon himself.
