Thanks in advance, feel free to add your own aspects.

Its all unfolding according to our highest good... I say that as a person, not an astrologer... I really do believe that it is going to be ok..

This conjunction is likely to bring things to a head and there will be no turning back... Whatever is happening at that time will likely have serious implications, weight and portent. We are carving out a serious future right now.

Antares isn't necessarily a bad thing... but there is the risk of violence, there is the risk of anger, pain, subterfuge. All of these are very real, and they all seem to me to stem from the illusion that we are separate from one another. The evolutionary astrologers say that there are two directions... towards source and away from source. I think that's nearly right, but I like Buddha's way of saying it better.

The illusion of separation is an ILLUSION... not a reality.

If we can center in the fact that we are all one, truly in it together... our compassion and understanding will overflow... peace will reign.

Even in abominable circumstances, if we remain free from the curse of hatred and blaming others, we can remain at peace. Even if our bodies are annihilated..

Whatever lessons are inherent in your birth chart, focus whole heartedly on those. When you heal yourself, you heal the world.

The 9/1 eclipse is on my 3rd house Virgo. Both, transiting Sun and Moon will conj. natal Venus. TR Saturn will square my Venus too.

Just like you, I'm dealing with family issues, specifically with my sister (I shared part of the story here several times) I believe my Venus represents her and anything that aspects my Venus negatively freaks me out.

I suspect you're right that it will be about your sister....maybe things will transform in a surprising way.

It conjuncts my Neptune-Node exact
also conjuncts my Mars (4 degrees) and ASC (2 degrees), sextiles my Pluto exact and squares my Jupiter (2 degrees).

And as if that wasn`t prominent enough
in my current Lunar Return, thta just started some days ago, on 17th august, I have

Mars 6°30 Sag
MC 8°05 Sag
Saturn 9°47 Sag

*sighs* of course it had to be falling onto an angle, right? and being most visible and elevated right there.

no clue what that means for me, but I guess I will know at the end of the return. though I am not particularly enthusiastic about this

Actually now that you mention this

my PPP is on 9 Aries in 4th house
my NN is on 10 Sag in 1st house

not only THEY are trine each other, but of course that Pluto polarity point is trine the transiting Mars-Saturn-as well. Not sure that means anything though. lol

Although, this morning I just had a breakdown. Sent my child off with my ex for the day and after they left I was crying like someone had died. And I realized I had no one to call.

This fun configuration is conjunct my Neptune, squaring my Mars.

Tightly squaring my daughter's Sun.

Conjunct my ex's Uranus-Jupiter.

I think it's an important time for us.

So everything that happens with the eclipse (hitting my daughter's Sun exact, my Mars at 2 degrees) will be squaring this Mars-Saturn-Antares. so yikes. I wonder what will happen.

Is Antares the same as Anteros?

I just looked at my natal for this transit. It's going to be in 12 house, conjunct Destinn by a degree. This Mars-Saturn loosely (4-5 deg) trines my Mars/Venus in Aries.
I don't know what it means but if something about future is going to manifest, I hope it is about my career. I'm so desperate to find a better job now... Venus rules my MC so fingers crossed.

Hi yungang,

posted August 24, 2016 06:21 PM            

To be honest though, I am not an evolutionary astrologer. I'm a holistic astrologer, and I am still exploring this method, to see what it can offer. So far it's been useful and fruitful but I'm still learning about it. So just to say... I can't entirely endorse it.

Or if I do then I'll say that we shouldn't abandon or discredit our natal Pluto position, as we did incarnate to experience those desires. But they make some very cool, interesting points.

Still I think the evolutionary astrologers are a bit hard on Scorpio and Pluto. I prefer holistic astrology, which doesn't work so much with either/or and duality, but seeks harmony and integration and acceptance of that which is. I have a nonlinear perspective on life, and astrology... although time looks like it's going forward I don't really think it does that, per se. And so I find the concept of linear evolution a little problematic.

Still, holism accepts that linearity exists! We learn, we grow, we evolve. These are realities... But not ultimate realities.

I'm rambling <

When something activates the PPP by transit, I imagine you have an opportunity for growth and liberation, according to the transiting body or point. In the 5th, that growth is coming through immediate personal celebratory creative things with which you identify... the Moon... maybe a woman or an intuition or a felt bodily sense of well being, of excitement, of creativity. Does that resonate for you right now?

Hey yungang!

I've never heard of PPP so this is an interesting concept. Being at an opposing point, I wonder why it does not mean the opposite of evolving..?
