Starcodes the Week - Heather Roan Robbins

[WhiteTara]

The poet Rumi once said “Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love”. With Venus and Mars in Scorpio, we can feel that thousand desires wrangling below the surface stirring up our emotions and nudging our unconscious into action. This week brings deep feelings, a review of the past and heavy but potentially constructive thinking.

On the surface our words and mind can bring an oasis of calm and purpose with thoughtful Mercury in open-minded, egalitarian Libra, conjunct the Sun and serious Saturn. We may have to work extra hard on our communications, technical glitches or the seriousness of our work may ask us to pay extra attention rather than just breeze through: this conjunction wants us to be a nice grown-up and do our work but don’t rock the boat. It asks us to get real. Dig up the past. Work out the details in the present and make solid plans for the future. But don’t be mean in the process.

It can also lean in heavily on our mind and depress us if we obsess on an old wound or the drudgery and obstacles in our path. If we find ourselves down in the muck, the best medicine can be to dive into that heaviness, look at it, talk about it, and share stories. Remember when we've been there before, what helped, and how we surfaced with new gifts. But let’s not leave anyone in there, in that heaviness, to stew alone.

Friday begins upbeat and competent, if a little drifty, then deepens as the Moon enters Scorpio for the weekend. This weekend we have the chance to dig deep and unearth the real reasons for our issues, or we can sling mud and blame others for our problems and miss this empowering opportunity. Dig in the garden and in the garden of the soul for the roots. Because each person is working on their own private internal agenda, however consciously or unconsciously, relationships can feel strained, tested, or at least in need of attention. Even if we can’t fully come to the surface to be there for another, we can practice good relationship skills and be trustworthy. And if we’re lucky, find something wonderful to share in the process.
