Creatively risky catch and release romantic play of Leo gives way to creative chores, routines, organization of duty-bound Virgo. Feng Shui freakouts, categorizing tasks in the brain files, nit-picky hunger for health kicks into streamlined gear.
All very zen, you know . . . Virgos get much done quietly.

They are Queens of NO MUSS, NO FUSS.

Venus strong in Libra (she rules) is coming up to square Pluto Rx in Capricorn.  Love will have to sweat on the inner obstacle course in order to find harmony. 
Venus is also square Lilith in Cancer forcing change in personal expression of love, the feminine expression of independence, balance, harmony and justice. Feelings/family/feminine meets power/authority/work from the past, desperately struggles with the energy of metamorphosis via emotional power plays/projections. 

Lilith was created of the same Earth as Adam (not from his rib, like Eve) legend says she was created before him.  She refused to become subservient to Adam, claiming equality, she left Adam and the garden to pursue her own interests.  (Eve was made of Adam’s rib so she could not claim any right to equality.)
Ancient Hebrew texts claim Lilith left Adam to mate with Samael, the Angel of Death, describing her as a baby-killing demon living by the Red Sea, a powerful seductress not to be trusted.  As time passed, legends and texts changed, in medieval writings Lilith is described as a rebellious wife, a militant feminist.

Lilith squares Venus while opposite Pluto Rx in Capricorn – feminine strength of independent personal philosophies regardless of authority and power dictatorship.  She is in Cancer, action driven energies known to scuttle sideways.  If feminine energy and her power doesn’t feel like dealing with authority, she won’t – power and authority trying to lord over her quickly becomes a non issue.
She is fully aware but will only juggle metamorphosis on her terms.

Libra Venus opposite Uranus Rx in Aries – love and innovation requires teamwork, balance – someone is going to be zinging you with a surprise forcing compromise.  We are talking boho eccentric electric (Mars/Aries) Uranus in peace talks with Venus (rules Libra) here.  Uranus is change, undoubtedly – what kind remains to be seen.
Uranus Rx squares Pluto Rx – this opposition will lead to transformative healing on a very deep level – though it may have the appearance of being surface – this is not the case at all.

What is going on in the mind with Sun’s entrance into Virgo – ? – tap that rich vein.  When Sun moves into Virgo, it opens an ambitious doorway of opportunity with Lilith; Saturn and North Node of Destiny in Scorpio.
How is past rebellion leading you into your future – think healing (Virgo) the (Lilith) rebellious feminine/disciplined masculine (Saturn) via feelings, desires.

Mine the jewels of time and experience buried in house Scorpio – they will help provoke your transition into balance, move you towards your destiny.  What calls for healing via timely expression (Virgo, Mercury) …?
We each carry feminine and masculine qualities.
Are they in balance within..?
What energies need more outgoing yang ?  More introverted yin ?
Find balance, then work outward – bringing your balance into the world.

Sun into Virgo will also begin to trine Pluto; a Mercury trine to Pluto soon follows.  Healing is most definitely activated through avenues of thinking and communication – beginning with yourself – Pluto is retrograde (turning inward) after all.
Think about who or what matters most ?
Figure that out – then apply work (pressure) in that area.

Sun sextile Saturn and North Node while in trine to Pluto Rx (Saturn and Pluto Rx are in mutual reception) is a time to focus on inner healing in order to move forward.
Sun conjunct Mercury in Virgo will trot out analyzations, perceptual shifts, dietary and health concerns, practical self-improvements – improved communications: thinking, talking, writing.

Be aware Sun into Virgo opposes Neptune Rx, later Chiron Rx in Pisces.  Someone or thing is calling you to devote yourself to higher art, music meditation, dreams (both day and night) via the daily work ethic, routine and the melding of the two into harmony.  Keep to your course as able – having a big Neptune influence on the mind means dissolution, yes – but it also means transcendence, going with the flow, the ego gets a spiritual cleanse via the other.

Chiron Rx opposing Sun is surely a hit to the ego followed by subsequent healing. The theme of the Virgo Pisces axis is healing.
Chiron if it suits you, rules Virgo – daily personal magick.
Pisces is magick of the worldwide and beyond, the ALL ONE.

Virgos fix chaos in order to find perfection.
Pisces accept chaos IS perfection.

Cancer Jupiter square Aries Uranus Rx delivers superhuman innovative ideas across vast distances on the planes of feelings and actions – changes have been and remain slick and fast, surprisingly optimistic (I am a Capricorn rising, ya know) ushering in new, unexpected freedoms.

Mars into Leo brings an active fire energy into square to Saturn and North Node of Destiny and trine Uranus Rx in Aries.  Think power applied to work, time issues, desires, future path, metamorphosis – the fire of innovative creativity lit under all of them as we transform our past into our more balanced, streamlined future. 
:::::::::::

Note for future reference: Pluto stations direct September 20, just under 9 degrees in Capricorn. Yowsa ~>  While sextile Venus/Saturn/North Node in Scorpio; and with a Moon/Uranus conjunction in Aries.
Metamorphosis then begins to plows outward on the material plane, rather than turn inward.

:::::::::
Cripes my Saturn and Moon are in for a beating soon.
Fair warning. I will give it my best shot to remain all rah-rah happy.
We’ll see what happens…
With that I am off, a million things to do…I had better dig in and get to work.

Peace, clean floors and organization
