Mercury 20°Ar23′ R, Jupiter 20°Ta23′ – 20:38 (UT)
Inner discordance receives illumination. Eris points out where we are at odds with ourselves. ‘There’s no point being angry with yourself’, she says. ‘Use that fire to burn away self-contempt, to burn away shame, to burn away the feeling that you should be anything other than the glorious being that you are. You are strong, You are vital. You are a warrior, and don’t you forget it!’
The Sabian symbol of this conjunction degree is ‘The Possibility For Man To Gain Experience At Two Levels Of Being.’ It shows us that we’re not just growing out into the world but also growing into ourselves. Mercury’s semi-sextile to Jupiter reflects this theme of inner and outer growth. There is a glowing landscape of delights to explore within. Embrace the chaos to birth the star.
Painting – Woman with Blue Bodice by Henri Matisse
Original quote by Nietzsche ‘One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.’
