Compassionate squeeze

January 24, 2022

As this week opens, we feel a tight squeeze between Lilith and Neptune. They are in Square, both at 21 degrees. Lilith is asking us to face our fears and shame around how our personal, experienced, story effects and is perceived by those in our bigger world. You may find yourself talking about something that makes you feel uncomfortable, or that you fear you will be judged about, but know that Neptune is pressing us to open more fully to the compassion of divine love.

Can you love and have compassion for yourself, even more than you hope others will?

In addition to this Square, the Moon will move from Libra to Scorpio today. Scorpio is a phase in our development where we test the integrity of our relationships. If Cancer is the first emotional testing ground of our personal drives, decisions or desires, Scorpio is the next place that brings up boundaries, fears, control, faith, power, inevitability, and intensity.

While the Moon moves through this space over the next couple of days, find out what area of your life is your testing ground for the interpersonal. Even if you have Scorpio shining over a house between 1-6, what does this mean for the development of your individuated self? What early experiences caused you to test your trust in intimacy with yourself and others?

Venus is at her final stationary degree of her retrograde cycle. She won’t move direct till the 29th, but she is holding at degree 11 while she fully settles into her greatest integrity.

What integrity checks have you had since December 19? In what areas of life have you witnessed the most shift?
