Whenever it comes to communication and being a messenger of the gods, Mercury has the floor, but sometimes, some lesser or well known gods or goddesses can have something of value to add.
Iris was a Greek Goddess and the personification of the rainbow. She was also a servant to the Olympians and a messenger of the gods. The rainbow is actually her means of transportation, and she uses it to travel back and forth between our reality and the realm of the gods.
Currently, we can find Iris chilling on the 24th degree of Cancer in the Seventh House, which forms a square to the Midheaven on the 20th degree of Libra.
With the Midheaven set in Libra, we can see themes of love, harmony, and possibly justice manifesting in the Tenth House.

What does this look like?
Libra, don’t forget, is the ruler of the Seventh House, which is where Iris is actually located right now, but when Libra is involved we know the other plays an important role in whatever is going on.
The square is a block or an obstacle that can be a real pain in the ass-tronaut, but at the end of the day, it is through the most difficult times that we stand to gain the most.
With consideration to Iris and the Midheaven, the aspect that connects them, and their signs and houses, the situation could look something like this:
You and your coworker decided to get together before work. There's an important client coming to the office today, and your coworker is supposed to help get you up-to-speed with important information so you're not lost during the meeting.
You show up early at the local coffee shop, but your coworker doesn't. He texts you an hour after he was supposed to meet you and tells you he overslept and won't be meeting you. Wow. With Iris in Cancer, you could be wondering where your coworker's loyalty lies, and you're also upset because you got up two hours earlier than usual for no reason. That's a terrible way to begin the workday, and you might need to spend the next two hours trying to calm yourself down.
In general, with this alignment, I wouldn’t be surprised if your wife or husband has an issue with the work you’re doing. Maybe they don’t like that you’re never home and work entirely too much, or maybe, they feel like you’re overqualified for the work you do and deserve better.
The blessings that are usually shared between the Tenth House of Public Image and Career and the Seventh House of Relationships are just not there right now.
Sometimes, revelations of truth can hurt relationships. Libra wants justice and justice requires that the truth sees the light of day. The best men and the best women for the job are those who are the most qualified. This is obvious, right?
Well, of course it is, but things get complicated when the qualified one gets the promotion over the one who’s popular and loved by everyone. All of a sudden, the person who’s qualified for the promotion finds himself in a tense situation.
He quickly discovers that his coworkers could care less about his qualifications. They wanted the funny person, the cool person, and the younger person to get the promotion. Stuff like this happens all the time, and relationships (Seventh House) can suffer or come to an end because of it.
Did you know that Cancer rules the breasts? So, how about this situation. You’re a young female in your 20’s. You have a beautiful face with an amazing pair of boobies. In secret, and without anyone knowing, you decided to create a new account on one of these social media websites so you could show your breasts to the world. For whatever reason, your thirst for validation was unquenchable.
The Tenth House rules public image, and your social media account started blowing up! What started as something you decided to do during your summer break out of pure boredom, has brought unimaginable fame and recognition.
Justice (Libra). One of your students (the other) decided to create an account, and she saw your pictures. She tells everyone, and the principal finds out eventually. Shit, you might decide to quit your teaching job and live the rockstar lifestyle, but these are the types of things that can happen.
Right now, relationships require work, but some of them might turn out to be worth it in the end. You might meet someone who can help you gain the honors and the respect you really deserve. Hang in there, and don’t get discouraged. The square can bring difficulties.
The biggest point to take away from this is that not everyone is going to open up their world and welcome you in with open arms within the first few days of meeting you. Especially with Cancer in the Seventh House. People are going to want to feel you out. They want to see where your head is at, how you think, and what you’re really like. Can they trust you?
On the flip side, take your time when meeting new people now. Not everyone is worthy of your time and your energy.
Watch out for the tattle tails, the man or woman who comes on to you as they’re hiding the fact that they’re married, and the people who promise you the world, but don’t have a pot to pee in.
If you find something of beauty, focus your attention on it. Nurture it, grow it, love it, and protect it. Relationships are not the most important thing right now, and you might find that some of them are causing more harm than good. The people who support what you’re doing and the people who respect you are the ones who truly matter now.
