Sept. 20th - 3 Asteroids switch signs; Ceres to Scorpio♏︎, Pallas to Virgo♍︎, & Vesta to Cancer♋︎. Areas of career / work, the social / political, personal growth and more are affected. (image and text)

Until Nov. 9th, Vesta provides us with strong emotional and intuitive energies in themes of familial dedication, purity, patriarchal or sexual control (men are also negatively affected by toxic patriarchy / masculinity, and some women participate in causing it as much as some men do), spiritual, esoteric or religious practices, karma of career / work life, conservatism, schooling.

Vesta in Cancer brings in energies of wanting to be needed by others. We may take this to extremes, by feeling insecure and needy, or even paranoid. Finding and working with Libra wherever it falls in our charts can help us to find and maintain balance.

We may find ourselves on the opposite end of this energy, feeling hypersensitive and wanting to withdraw as we feel the need to protect ourselves from what we perceive to be those who are being too intense. When we pick up on it from others as much as ourselves, we feel overwhelmed.

That’s why spiritual practices, including breath-work, sound frequency healing, journaling, and energy healing modalities (which we can all find some free resources to learn online) are so helpful during periods where we are confronted by shadows in the areas of Vestas traits.

Until Nov. 29th, Ceres & Pallas are bringing in emotionally fixed passions and diligent analyzation skills.

Ceres is known as the asteroid of nurturing. She’s associated with such areas as family values and procreation timing, child care and professions within any type of health or agriculture / food industry, workers rights & human adaptation, and in Scorpio she becomes a catalyzer in the area of nurturing expressions towards the self and others. Be careful of feeling isolated and expressing this in some unfair or cruel way. Any intensity towards the above areas needs to be transformed from upset emotions into healthy intimacies both within and without.

When she’s in Scorpio, we tend to feel attracted to areas of the occult (the word occult refers to the mysterious and hidden). Learning more about occult subjects can occupy our minds and hearts, so that we don’t become stuck in aggressively emotional desires to lash out.

Pallas works in the areas of intellectual strategy, career guidance and discrimination, courage, and both the arts and the sciences.

If worked with consciously, Pallas can mesh well with any esoteric explorations or practices that Ceres & Vesta are encouraging.

In Virgo, Pallas can help us organize details so that we make clear plans in whatever “battles” we may face.

She also helps specifically with body purification, which goes well with the more emotional, stress-inducing Ceres in Scorpio energy also starting to pour in today. Yoga is of common use with those who have a close connection to Pallas in their natal charts, and we can also bring that energy in now.

Politically / socially, artistically, and intellectually, Pallas fights for quality standards. Good craftsmanship, particularly in such grounded areas as domestic crafts or detailed presentations for work, are an easy energy to tap into during this period, though any artistic works are encouraged. Pallas in Virgo energy can also help us fight for our rights at work, by working purely, to clearly identify the problem, and communicate it with courage and determination.

Two water signs and an earth sign have their energy heightened for the next little while, so let’s not forget to also work with fire and air wherever they fall in our personal charts, if we need to find balance.
