Candopelene is the mental and psychological effects of, or how we’re affected by something. You will not find candopelene in a dictionary because I just created it.
Today’s astrological chart reading for 3:09 PM (ET) reveals a feminine-dominated energy. This is a very hard energy to work with because as I’ve stated in past articles, when you have water and earth, you get mud. According to my own methods for chart reading and analysis, this would be a cardinal/fixed cross, and the challenge here is discriminating between what we perceive to be good or good for us, and the truth of what actually is.
The challenge is to separate intuition, our real inner guidance, from that, which appeals to our senses and ultimately leads us astray on a never-ending quest to quench our personal desires. With the ascendant in fixed Taurus and the midheaven in cardinal Capricorn, sensuality is at the forefront. There’s a time for everything, and the time is calling for personal enjoyment.
We have the Sun conjunct Mars in Sagittarius in the 7th house. The willful Sun and war oriented Mars are giving us the power and energy forge ahead and be pioneers when it comes to relationships and partnerships, but the Moon in Virgo is saying, “slow your roll.”
The Moon is squared to both the Sun and Mars, and so we must take the Moon’s call for diplomacy into consideration here for two reasons. One, the overall energy is feminine, and two, 50% of the energy is fixed. Fixed, as in rigid and inflexible. I would like to compare the cardinal/fixed cross to someone making a decision to take action based on what they’ve always known and believed. The problem here is that the person, because they’ve been unwilling to change or consider someone else’s point of view, is now incapable of seeing the bigger picture.
With that in mind, you can see why or how the Sun’s 7th house conjunction with Mars in Sagittarius is necessary in this situation. We absolutely need to broaden our horizons, form friendships and partnerships that can help us, and in a sense, branch out.
But at what cost?
So, we take heed to the Moon’s call for diplomacy. The Moon is forming a brilliant trine with Mercury in Capricorn in the 8th house of death and regeneration. Communication should be cunning instead of forceful now. Make a commitment and be persistent, and if you must indulge in what pleases you, use moderation. Nothing muddies the waters more than drugs and alcohol-keep that in mind.
The Moon is requiring more information before she can get on board with moving ahead, or blessing that conjunction between the Sun and Mars. She’s in Virgo, and Virgo is a very conscientious and discriminating sign. The Moon is asking us to conduct our research thoroughly and carefully. With all this fixed energy, mutable Virgo is the perfect placement for the Moon right now.
