Venus conjoins Chiron in Aries at 11:49am GMT, followed by the Sun in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius at 5:02pm. This combination of transits can feel overwhelming, especially for those already in the grip of sadness, depression, and anxiety, so check in with loved ones when possible. We all have our struggles, most of which remain hidden. As hard as it is to be vulnerable about the things that trouble us most, doing so may reveal how much we have in common with each other.

Venus conjoins the North Node in Aries at 6:46pm GMT. What we want seems so big and so important, and we want it right NOW. We may rush toward instant gratification without stopping to consider if what we want in this moment is actually good for us. On the plus side, if we've been trying to work up the courage to admit to our desires, now is the time when fortune favors the bold.

Chicken, meet roost.

MadameXimon,

@golgaloth Why does everybody always blame the poor avocado toast? 🤣

Seriously though, I live in Boeing country, and my aunt worked for Boeing for years. And I am in full agreement that Boeing should get what's coming to them, no bailouts. You don't trash a company's product quality and reputation on such a monumental level without screwing over everyone but the CEOs. Unfortunately, no matter how this ends, Boeing will still screw over the little guy. And our wetlands.

I deeply appreciate the support of Linda and my other patrons, which helps keep me making astrological art. 🥰

My beloved Puranam, aka Mr. Kitty, was euthanized in my arms last night.

I have written what I can on the subject, for now, in this public Patreon post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/saturn-cazimi-mr-99436804

TL;DR He was the love of my life, and I am devastated, so my posting schedule is likely to become a little more erratic for a while.

MadameXimon,

@trixter Thank you. I have been struggling with guilt over how short his life was, thinking I should have found a way to help him stay healthier longer. He was a rescue kitty and I know that his life on the street before me negatively impacted his health, but this cancer blindsided me. Thank you for reminding me that I didn't do everything wrong. I loved him so much, and I am so wrecked.

Sometimes the cycles of the heavens and Earth are kindly, and sometimes they are not.

I've written more on this subject here:

TL;DR This is my beloved Puranam, a.k.a. Mr. Kitty, reminding us all to hold our loved ones close while we can, because we never know when we won't be able to again.

He was diagnosed with cancer this morning.

Mercury stations direct in Capricorn at 3:08am GMT, once again reminding us to pay attention to data and communication, and the practical consequences of neglecting organization. Hopefully we've spent the retrograde that is now ending reconsidering how what we think and say affects our bottom line, so that now we can move forward with concrete plans and increased clarity.

Mr. Kitty is concerned about my lateness with the post. And the cat food.

The Solar Eclipse in Libra at 6:00pm GMT is sandwiched between Mercury and the South Node, opposing Chiron in Aries. This encourages us to talk about our troubles, not in a spirit of complaint but instead gaining greater perspective and sharing hard-won wisdom, releasing any fears of judgment. Eclipses are unpredictable energy, and especially on the South Node they can be draining, so self-care is the order of the day.

Mars in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries at 8:06pm GMT. Mars rules Aries, so we may feel especially judged now for what we struggle to achieve, with a lot of frustration when we can't live up to social expectations. There is a risk of impulsiveness causing injury with this transit and those of us prone to inflammation may experience flares now, and should pace ourselves accordingly.

Anything that makes a city a worse place to drive makes it a better place to live… 👀

MadameXimon,

@davidho As a resident of Seattle, a.k.a. Shadowrun without the magic, I beg to differ. The contempt for gig workers and other people who drive for a living correlates pretty strongly with the contempt for labor in general. The people who pat themselves on the back for jacking up parking prices and making undrivable traffic patterns are the same people who tell the poor "wow, that sounds like a difficult situation, you're going to have to deal with it!" (Direct quote from a judge)

Venus in Leo squares Jupiter in Taurus at 6:10am GMT, the third of three exact squares since mid-June. This is big, enthusiastic energy, optimistic and joyful, but we may have little patience for drudgery or dullness today. We are likely to want FUN now, preferably of the kind that is both boldly connective and finding good fortune in the arts and our creature comforts.

Mercury stations direct in Virgo at 8:21pm GMT, followed by the Sun in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus at 1:24am. This combination is full of surprises! With Virgo's ruler stationing, the Sun shines a spotlight on Mercury matters of communication, commerce, information, gaming, and travel, and Uranus brings a wild card to the game. Who knows what to expect? Flexibility and adaptability are the name of this game, so embrace change and welcome its rewards!

MadameXimon, to photography

The New Moon in Virgo at 1:40am GMT feels like a turning point, bringing renewal as Virgo's ruler Mercury slows to a standstill in preparation to station direct tomorrow. This rational New Moon offers a chance to reconfigure our reality in a big way that is actually attuned to our spiritual needs as well as our material needs, recognizing how our habits need to be adjusted to accommodate this new vision.

This is a piece of astrological art recently commissioned by a client for her Solar Return. I love finding the archetypal themes in astrological charts and coming up with a vignette to reflect them.

If you are interested in having your own astrological artwork done, or getting a consult to help you understand your natal chart or relationship charts, take a look at the options I offer via the linktree in my bio!

New art in honor of the Solar Return of my friend and Patreon patron Chef Tom, a talented chef and synthwave DJ in Rhode Island. I am really happy with how this one turned out! 🥰

Uranus in Taurus quintiles Juno in Leo at 6:50am PDT, helping us to create more freedom and inspiration in our closest relationships. This transit can also help us in business negotiations and meetings, as it stimulates cooperative problem-solving and encourages better allocation of resources within organizations and communities.

The First Quarter Moon in Sagittarius at 2:57am PDT arrives at the apex of 1 of 2 Kites formed from the ongoing Grand Earth Trine. With the Sun's ruler Mercury newly-retrograde, the Moon has an advantage right now, driving change forward instinctually, rather than with our customary ways of thinking. And with all three outer planets involved in today's Kites, we are encouraged to ease down with our egos and receive the gifts offered by forces far bigger than ourselves.

I do many things, so here is the beginning of a thread for finding those things.

To start: I am an artist in many media, including both traditional and digital art, with a background in performing arts.

Here is a sampling of my traditional artwork, primarily based on divination and esoterica, with occasional geekery.

MadameXimon,

MadameXimon,

Among the many things I do, I knit a LOT, primarily while listening to astrology lectures. The things I make are mostly scarves, arm warmers, and cowls, which I have for sale in my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/IconAlchemy

Here are a few things I've made.
