Tonight Venus in Pisces is forming an exact trine aspect with Saturn in Scorpio. Your head could still be spinning from the intensity of the cardinal grand cross event of the past few days, or you might have had a more subtle experience, with its transformational character becoming more clear only with the passage of time. In any case, this aspect symbolizes another kind of dose of sobering reality that offsets the wilder flights of fanciful possibility that you might have been feeling recently. With Venus involved, this one applies especially to a love relationship or other interpersonal connection, or to financial matters. Saturn in Scorpio points to unearthing any potentially unhealthy patterns and finding ways to stay centered in dedication and personal power, while Venus in Pisces symbolizes an inclination for increased compassion, love, and forgiveness. It is beneficial now to be honest with yourself and others about what is and is not working – recognizing that love can prevail and even thrive in the face of broaching difficult topics. Greater personal power for all involved waits on the other side of taking a practical and concerted look at undesirable patterns, and in strengthening your bond of commitment.

Head spinning from the Cardinal Cross AND the transformational aspect of Scorpio moving thru my ruling planet has certainly, again, taught me more about myself. Yeah, it's a Scorpio thing...and it's a perfect time for Venus to be in Pisces in the attempt to find the honesty behind the intensity. I have taken a long hard look at myself and I find, I'm no different than anyone else.
