🔥 Mars square Saturn In The Natal Chart

Here's an example of a Mars-Saturn square configuration. This random chart belongs to Tom.

Tom has a fiery Leo Rising, as well as Mars and Mercury in the first house. He comes out as a charismatic, warm, and entertaining individual. He has a positive outlook on life and is able to make himself heard and stand out in any situation.

Mars in Leo enhances the Lion's confidence and makes him more competitive and motivated to express himself. These people want the attention and praise they believe they are due. Mars in Leo is proud, and that energy is palpable when you first meet Tom. He will not put up with being disrespected.

Tom feels like the main character and will fight to get the recognition he deserves. He craves the limelight and has all the means to achieve it.

The problem is that Tom also has Saturn in Scorpio in the 4th house, which forms an almost perfect square to his Mars.

The primary concern of Scorpio is surviving through wielding power. Saturn in Scorpio makes Tom extra cautious. It becomes critical to protect oneself and control one's environment. Being unsuccessful makes the highly calculating Scorpio feel vulnerable. He must have the upper hand in all situations.

This square causes the native a lot of frustration and insecurity. When we act, we do not always get the desired results.

When Tom tries to attract attention, Saturn will thwart his efforts. He may come off as being excessively assertive as a consequence of Saturn pushing Mars to use extreme tactics to express himself and win people over. There is a lot of pressure on Tom to win, and Saturn warns him that losing is dangerous and not an option. For Tom, there is no middle ground. He either doesn't act at all, or acts in an extreme way in order to ensure his success.

People may feel that his confidence masks a deep insecurity. His efforts may cast a bad light on him. That part is also confirmed by the Mars-Midheaven square, and the Saturn-Midheaven opposition. 

Tom's job will be to take a more measured approach. Not everything is a matter of life and death. Working on his Saturn will be critical to his future success.

🔥🍃 Sun in Sagittarius, Moon in Taurus: A Quick Jamie Campbell-Bower Birth Chart Reading

Since the premiere of Stranger Things season 4 on Netflix, Jamie Campbell-Bower has been featured on all of my social media timelines. People are falling in love with him (or falling in love all over again), and it's easy to see why. Here's what I discovered in his natal chart.

Due to the fact that we don't have his birth time, this reading is incomplete. If he was born early, he may have a Scorpio Sun. Everything described in this interpretation could also be altered by his Ascendant. This reading is also for entertainment purposes only, and focuses on his chart.

Personality

Jamie's Sagittarius Sun is outgoing, passionate, and optimistic. He is the kind of individual who truly embodies their personal philosophy and lives according to his beliefs. His charisma and confidence are enhanced by the Sun-Mars trine in his chart. Jupiter's opposition to his Sun in Sagittarius is one of his weaknesses, as he tends to go overboard. He occasionally overestimates his abilities and is overly enthusiastic, and then ends up making promises that he cannot keep. He loves to take big risks, which sometimes backfire. At times, he can also be arrogant.

His Sun is complemented by a Taurus Moon that is more grounded. His conscious and subconscious are completely different since Sagittarius and Taurus don't have anything in common. He is a sensual guy in private who, like an epicurian, finds comfort in all the pleasures life has to offer. Since we don't know his actual birth time, we don't know the precise aspects to his Moon. He may have a Moon-Pluto opposition, which would cause him to feel emotionally overwhelmed. In certain situations, he needs to be in control to the point of obsession. Despite his outward appearance of fun and lightness, he can be rather intense in private. 

Thanks to his Scorpio Mercury, he has a sharp mind and is quite observant. He likes diving deeper into subjects and despises lies and secrets. Any falsehoods are quickly discovered by him. He doesn't need to flaunt his intelligence by using extravagant words, and can express his ideas clearly and effectively with only a few well chosen words.

His Mars in Aries demonstrates his drive to achieve his goals. He is straightforward in pursuing his interests, and quite passionate. But his Mars is squared by Saturn and Neptune. Mars-Saturn is a frustrating energy because he feels limited in his ability to pursue his goals by some overpowering fears. The Mars-Neptune square intensifies the difficult energy by making him uncertain and occasionally deluded about his goals. He basically has a lot of drive and is motivated to achieve his goals, but he has a hard time identifying them, and when he does, his worries and concerns weigh him down. He undermines himself.

His Jupiter is in Gemini, showing a genuine interest in learning and confidence in his intelligence. Jamie has a way with words and can transform all the knowledge he possesses into something useful. He could possibly be a talented writer.

His Saturn in Capricorn is squeezed between Uranus and Neptune. His boundaries are unstable and quick to dissolve despite his desire to uphold adult principles of behavior and be a responsible person. 

Relationships

As a friend, he is fun and always down for a good time. Due to his sensuous nature, he can be the sort of person that enjoys going out but finds it difficult to maintain balance. He can occasionally be a little bit too honest and will tell you things as they are. He doesn't seem to be overly sentimental.

In love, he seeks a companion who epitomizes beauty. He likes people that are sweet, charming, and generally lovely to be around. His Venus in Libra and Moon in Taurus are very venusian, so he dislikes vulgar behaviors. He will be drawn to partners who are refined, polite, and well-mannered.

He is a really good flirt and knows how to seduce people. His tendency to be indecisive and his potential reluctance to settle down with someone are the only flaws in his chart when it comes to love.

Scorpio New Moon | November 4, 2021

⭐️ Easier for: Pisces, Cancer, Virgo, and Capricorn placements.

☄️ Challenging for: Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius, Leo placements.

The upcoming New Moon in Scorpio will be highly transformative as the intensely introspective energies of Scorpio are shaken up by the Sun/Moon-Uranus opposition. Both bring unconscious and hidden issues to the light to be dealt with. With this New Moon, there is a strong need to change, to leave past traumas behind.

It seems like this is the perfect moment to start diving deep into our psyche to find answers to current challenges and to face hidden truths. Scorpio is the sign of death and rebirth and doesn't do things mildly; we'll either find nothing or a massive load of junk.

The Sun/Moon-Uranus opposition is going to bring very volatile emotions to the mix. We might feel more anxious and unstable because of those revelations and seek to break free, to distance ourselves from the chaos. Running away from the scary truth is not an option with Scorpio; not resisting the transformation is paramount.

In the next week or so, we'll experience a Mars-Saturn square and a Mercury-Mars conjunction. Anger will be restrained; protests and acts of rebellion are likely to make headlines. Something sudden could happen to a man or someone in a prestigious position that could be quite shocking to the public.

Something big is brewing in the shadows...

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE | NOVEMBER 1-7th, 2021

⭐️ Best week for: Pisces, Cancer, Virgo, and Capricorn placements.

☄️ Challenging week for: Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius, Leo placements.

🔮 MONDAY 1/11

The Moon will be in Virgo at critical degrees (18° and 22°) during the day. The energy feels like we are trying to escape duties by taking care of something else (Moon-Neptune opposition). Issues around reorganizing our space or taking care of our health by changing our routine might come up today. We are extra sensitive and prone to obsessions (especially about a relationship), but we might try to repress these emotions with the Virgo energy. The Sun-Saturn-Uranus T-Square is still active, so issues involving an authority figure in our lives or a hard-to-pin-down man are likely.

🔮 TUESDAY 2/11

The Moon goes into Libra, and we seek to relate to others, to socialize. The Moon-Saturn trine gives us the ability to control our emotions and be more realistic about the issues we are facing. Our thoughts might be a bit more challenging to manage, though, with the Mercury-Pluto square. Something obscure regarding a relationship might make the news.

🔮 WEDNESDAY 3/11

This is an emotionally charged day, as the Moon interacts with Mercury, Jupiter, and Pluto. There is a need to reflect on our emotions, dig deep, and talk about them with our entourage. We feel more generous and benevolent than usual, giving affection to those around us who are currently struggling. It seems like a nice day to get together with friends and family to open up and talk about our current struggles.

🔮 THURSDAY 4/11

I'll talk more about this day in my "New Moon in Scorpio" article. Overall, this is a highly charged day, and the New Moon looks emotionally dark and heavy (especially for Taurus, Scorpio, Aquarius, and Leo planets between 7° and 14°)

🔮 FRIDAY 5/11

Venus enters Capricorn, making us more cautious and mature regarding relationships and our finances for a few weeks. But today, we might feel the need to indulge in our favorite foods or spend money on something to fill a void (Moon-Jupiter square at 22°). We are also extra-sensitive and more empathic than usual (Moon-Neptune square). This is great for our imagination, and turning to art could be the best way to use the energy (especially a visit to the museum, since Venus is in Capricorn). Some might turn to philosophy or spirituality to find answers to a current problem or to make sense of their emotions (Moon-Jupiter and Moon-Neptune aspects).

🔮 SATURDAY 6/11

Mercury enters Scorpio; we have three planets in the most introspective sign of the zodiac. Our thoughts are turning inward and tend to go deep to find the answers we need. We might keep more secrets than usual and be very careful with our words. News around a divorce or a shared investment might make the news in the next few weeks. The Moon will be in Sagittarius, making us more restless than usual; we want to travel, to get away from our routine through any means available. Most of us will seek to escape by studying something different; others will get on a plane for well-deserved vacations.

🔮 SUNDAY 7/11

Mars will be at 5° (notorious degree), and something regarding the police or the military might make headlines in the next few days. An accident or aggression is also likely to occur in the next couple of days since Mars will square Saturn. The energy for today is very frustrating as we feel controlled by something bigger than us. The Moon-Neptune square makes us extra-sensitive and prone to distorting our reality, and the Mercury-Mars conjunction drives us to make decisions without thinking them through. Sunday looks pretty chaotic to be honest; it feels like someone driving under the influence without a road map, at 100km/h in the dead of night.
