This is a super-very-interesting day! Think of the #20. Look at your Expansive Natal Chart or your Solar Return to see if you have any planets or house cusps that are 20 degrees. The #20 will have a degree (°) symbol after it.

I have been writing to you about the upcoming square from Mars in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn (at 20°) on November 5, 2019 that will impact birth dates from October 23, 2019 until November 17, 2019 because applying degrees began on October 23rd and separating degrees will end on November 17th with the exactness of the aspect at 20° on November 5, 2019. The closer your birth date to that date, the more of the impact and influence you will feel.

Well today Venus sextiles Pluto. A sextile is essentially the lower octave of a trine. WE LOVE TRINES, so naturally we Love sextiles. This sextile today is occurring at exactly 20°. If you download the chart wheel above you will see it. Venus in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn. Sextiles begin coming into the 'orb of influence' about 3 days, but most of the time 4 days away from its exactness. So this aspect began four (4) days ago on October 21, 2019. If you follow the October 2019 Astro Memes then you already knew this. Sextiles begin leaving the 'orb of influence' about 3 or 4 days after its exactness, but most of the time it is around 3 days after its exactness. So this aspect will end on October 28, 2019, which is three days from now because today it is exact. And interestingly enough, it is exact at 20 degrees, which is the same degree that Mars in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn will be on November 5, 2019.

Now I don't know about you, but when I see patterns, I pay attention. I don't know what this #20 is about, but I will be paying attention to other #20's around Scorpio season. November 20th is the date that Mercury will turn Direct, so there's that. The Full Moon in Taurus on November 12th will be at 19 degrees 52 minutes, which is essentially 20 degrees. So there's that! One thing I do know is this #20 is meant astrologically for all of us to see and all of these 20° that keep showing up will impact us all differently, including the Full Moon in Taurus in the middle of Scorpio season, which happens to be Scorpio's opposite sign. The Full Moon is ALWAYS in the opposite sign of the Sun Sign Season it is in. Further on November 13, 2019 the Sun in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn will be exact at 21 degrees 03 minutes. So look at THAT! Just 4 minutes over and just shy of being 20°. I'm just throwing all of this out there so that you are aware of the energies, the numbers, the patterns, etc.

I see numbers differently than numerologists. As a birth date reader first, I see the numbers that form patterns and signify planets to me. It's been that way since about the age of 12 years old for me. It's just what happens inside my brain. So I see a birth date and I see planets. It's just how it is for me. The reason I use the natal chart is to explain your birth date to you. In this way you can visually 'see' patterns and gain reasoning and understanding when these patterns are explained to you. Without the chart, you would just be hanging on to my words, like a psychic or intuitive, and that would make you cling to me or my words, and what I want you to do is cling to your chart. This is why I use the chart and why I believe the exact minute of your birth is so important. So having said that, the number 20 when I interpret birth dates (or actually the number 2) is a direct hit about intuition. I was going to write a follow-up post about intuition yesterday on my DrStandleyAstrology Facebook page and time simply ran away from me. So lookie there ... MY INTUITION was telling me yesterday to write about intuition because today I'm realizing that it is showing up all over the place in number patterns. Now my mind rolls back in time and asks myself, "What was going on that took your mind off writing about intuition?" And folks, it is usually something 'emotional' ... that makes us do that! DAMN IT! So I will do that today since this awareness of the #20 or #2 is staring me in the face. So watch for that post.

Back to today's Venus sextile Pluto aspect. This aspect could not be more different from the upcoming Mars square Pluto aspect on November 5, 2019. Let's grab a cup of coffee and think about it. I'll wait with Jeopardy music playing while you get your coffee.

Venus and Mars are completely opposite energies that naturally rule completely opposite signs are both are making aspects to Pluto. Venus sextile Pluto is exact today at 20° and Mars square Pluto will be exact on November 5, 2019 at 20°. Venus naturally rules Libra and Mars naturally rules Aries. Well Mars happens to be in Libra right now, which is the opposite sign of its natural ruler (Aries). This makes Mars in its detriment, which makes Mars act out inappropriately and throws a temper tantrum. Venus happens to be in Scorpio right now, which is the opposite sign of its natural ruler (Taurus). Venus rules both Libra and Taurus, but right now Venus is in Scorpio. Do you see how wildly complicated this can easily become. So even though Venus is in its detriment (Scorpio), it is making a nice sextile to Pluto in Capricorn. Remember, sextiles are the lower octave of trines, which we Love!

Back to the first line in this entire write-up, "This is a super-very-interesting day!" While we are experiencing the 'applying (approaching' degrees) of Mars square Pluto on November 5, 2019, the Universe (God) gives us a wonderful, sweet and positive placement at the same degree. You see both involve Pluto at 20 degrees. So Pluto is super-important here. If you can remain on your non-emotional and non-crazy and non-take-every-personal space during these energies, you are going to be completely fine. The tough thing is not only is Scorpio involved heavily because these energies are directly impacting Scorpio's, but these energies are also directly hitting Libra's and Capricorn's because Mars in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn are involved. I'm tellin' ya' folks, you really need to get off your emotional-crazy-train right now and if you choose not right yourself and upright quickly, then you and your ego that needs to be right will be tough to handle.

Venus sextile Pluto rolls in to talk to us again about Love. This aspect is the classic placement for the motto, "Love conquers all!" And while I believe this is True for Life, I do not believe it for romantic relationships because emotions are so high and tangled. I mean who intends to get married and divorced, one, two or three times? Right? Still, if you can wind yourself down a bit and breathe, then your emotional sarcasm and need to be right (or not be wrong) will check itself. Otherwise if you are in a you, you, you, you blame game, then you will miss this energy and then Good luck with Mars square Pluto coming into a stronger 'orb of influence' each day leading up to November 5th.

God is giving us this sweetness right now for a reason. CHECK YOURSELF! Check your own ego before you --- you, you, you someone else.

This placement absolutely believes that with Love, anything is possible. So calm the hell down! While we all have a right to be emotional and show our feelings, we are still have to put ourselves in check and get right as quickly as we can. Not every can keep up with that, but as long as you can get okay with yourself, that is most important.

Venus sextile Pluto reveals an intense committment in a relationship that requires the partner to be just as committed. HOLY COW MAMA! That is so BIG! This placement carries the theme or emphasis on relationships and to be real partners together. Not me and mine, but us and ours. When it comes to success in relationships, use this energy to gain a deeper understanding of people and their motivations. Use your intuition to 'sense' others motivations.

Venus sextile Pluto has a strong attraction to physical appearances and a person's sex appeal. Yet just as quickly, you can be turned off by any signs of a superficial personality. A person (male or female) can be so attractive, but once they open their mouth and begin --- you, you, you, you, that can take it all away.

I mention this you, you, you, you chatter because Mars is in Libra (wanting so desperately to be liked and Loved) and then someone doesn't feel they received the Love and then the you, you, you begins. Also Pluto is in Capricorn and when the Love isn't felt or some sort of less than feeling occurs, then the you, you, you begins there as well. Damn this is tough energy occurring right in the middle of this Venus sextile Pluto.

Those who can get their act together right now, and up until October 28, 2019 as long as this Venus sextile Pluto lasts, will have a much easier time navigating their way through Mars square Pluto. Again, the Scorpio birth dates who do not get their temperament under control and in-check and refrain from taking every little thing personal, will have to deal with the ramifications of their temperament for an entire year (their Solar Return). This can hurt committed relationships, friendships, work relationships, everything. And Scorpio isn't really known for making apologies and when Scorpio does not apologize, this will further influence the outcome and energy of the Mars square Pluto aspect. DANG!

Venus sextile Pluto has strong feelings and perceptions, coupled with a happy and lively disposition. SO GET HAPPY! Embrace a better mood and switch your Light. It's important that you do this even if others cannot keep up with your changing emotions right now. Be concerned with yourself and walk your path even if you get --- you, you, you'd!

This aspect favors relationships and their success because it believes in the transforming power of Love. Oh my gosh dear astrotators, use this energy right now on your relationships. ALL OF THEM! This really is unconditional Love, which means you have to shift. You have to shift from the angry, complaining, whining, bitching and petty chatter to something higher. This aspect takes Love to a whole new level and dimension.

Now dear Astrotators - it is your job to put 2 and 2 together or all of these 2's and 2's or 20's and 20's. Enjoy!~
