Libra / Scorpio Cusp

risingUp · Oct 19, 2020 ·

Libra Scorpio Cusp. Charismatic Charmer meets Deep Planner.
October 19 – 25th. Happy Birthday Cuspy Critter!

Libra is ruled by Venus and Scorpio co-ruled by Mars and Pluto.

Since Pluto was demoted and seems to fluctuate in status — planet / not planet — with advocates on either side… let’s consider the Mars angle. A ferocious strength, a powerful force and a warrior. This gets nicely balanced out with lovey-dovey Venutian vibes.

Last month we touched upon how scientists have discovered phosphine gas in the clouds of Venus, raising the intriguing prospect of life on Venus (ok, not likely humanoid, but still the possibilities are mind boggling). Venus is the planet of love, beauty and money.

What does this combo of energies bless you with?
We think you are sensual, smart and have a petit soupçon of that well known Scorpion sting. You might lurk in your basement / the shadows for a while planning out a bold next move, but your Libra side will balance that out with a softer, more creative approach, so instead of a sting, it will feel like an embrace.

In short — A cunning tactician with a generous streak.

Leo / Virgo Cusp

risingUp · Aug 19, 2020 ·

August 19 – 25th. Leo / Virgo Cusp. Tidy Thinker Meets Flamboyant Force.
Happy Birthday Cuspy Critter!

Leo is ruled by the Sun and Virgo by Mercury.

Mercury was named after the Ancient Roman god of messengers. Mercury rules over communication, travel, chance, commerce and, bonus, he got to escort the dead to the underworld. The Sun is, of course, a star, not a planet. But what a significant star! Leos do tend to be known for their radiance and star like qualities, not to mention relishing being the centre of attention:)

This combination of tactical communicator and formidable presence makes you a potentially very skilled leader, knowing just what to say and when, and being able to pivot and think quickly, yet with a mathematical cunning, to brilliantly respond to whatever the situation calls for.

Leo’s ruling element is fire and Virgo’s is earth. The influence of the Earth’s grounds and stabilizes the all consuming energy of fire, not taming you, just helping you channel that energy to the greater good. Between the influence of the dramatic lion, and the spreadsheet loving not so domestic maiden — you are a generous and sparkling soul, with a penchant for order.

Channel your inner lion / lioness fierce and bold power, and use your Virgoian precision to lead and shine your light with dexterity and wit.

Cancer / Leo Cusp

risingUp · Jul 22, 2020 ·

June 19 – 25  Cancer Leo  Cusp. Flamboyant Force Meets Sympathetic Soul.

Happy Birthday Cuspy Critter!

Cancer is ruled by the Moon and Leo by the Sun.

The Sun is, of course, a star, not a planet. But what a significant star!  Leos do tend to be known for their radiance and star like qualities, not to mention relishing being the centre of attention:) The moon is no less of a key player in terms of its overarching impact on us — its gravitational pull and lunar cycles affect everything from the tides to our moods.  

Leo’s ruling element is fire and Cancer’s is water — what a contrast. Rather than thinking that the water puts out the fire, why not embrace that sizzling steam and the alchemical transformation it implies?

Between the influence of the dramatic lion, and the sensitivity of the Cancerian moon, — you are generous, authoritative, commanding and yet warm and fuzzy.

A sympathetic star. Leos also enjoy being pampered, and Cancers do like their creature comforts, so you might excel at creating a nurturing and stunning living space for yourself.

Channel your inner lion / lioness fierceness, courage and use your Cancerian empathy to lead and shine your light with grace. Show us the way baby!

==============

Cancer > Fly Me to the Moon ….In Other Words, Darling Kiss Me…
Leo > Let that Lucky Ol’ Sun Just Roll Around Heaven All Day…

Disclaimer: As always, planets are really only in one place at one time (unless of course you consider quantum mechanics and parallel universes:), so your sun sign really is in only either ~29 degrees Cancer  or ~0 degrees Leo. But us cuspies know that we can feel the influence of the other ruling planet. We believe a few days either side of the switch (which BTW shifts every year and depends on where in the world you decided to bust into this planet) feels about right. You decide your own truth!

Taurus / Gemini Cusp

risingUp · May 17, 2020 ·

May 17 – 23rd. Taurus / Gemini Cusp. Earthy Hedonist Meets Mercurial Magician. Happy Birthday Cuspy Critter!

Taurus is ruled by Venus and Gemini by Mercury.

Mercury was named after the Ancient Roman god of messengers. Mercury rules over communication (mercury retrograde is surely a familiar peril:), travel, chance, commerce and, bonus, he got to escort the dead to the underworld. Couple this with Venus, the goddess of fertility, love, sex and beauty, you pave the way for all sorts of delightful possibilities. Agile, adaptive quick-thinking entreprenurial energy with a deep appreciation of the arts, beauty and all the finer things in life. The speed of Gemini is tempered by the Taurean depth and sensual approach.

Gemini is represented by the twins and known for the duality that implies, a sudden change of mind, a capricious wit. It’s also mutable sign. The earthy, fixed ruling element of Taurus may ground that bouncy energy, reinforcing your decisions with passion. Toss in a pinch of the infamous stubbornness and you got some powerful capacity for doing your own thing with some nimble grace.

Capricorn / Aquarius Cusp

risingUp · Jan 20, 2020 ·

The third week in January is often the moment when those New Year’s resolutions bite the dust. While many folks may give up on them at this time of the year – YOU – with your cusp of Capricorn and Aquarius, can persevere and blaze those intentions right into concrete reality.  

Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and Aquarius is also ruled by Saturn (by night) and by Uranus (by day).  So you get all that Saturnian boss energy, coupled with the more playful, innovative and humanitarian vision of Uranus. Maybe you stay up late scheming up new ways to change the world, and also have the practical thoughts to make it so, number one.

You combine the airy eccentric vibe of Aquarius, grounded by the Earthy, practical energies of Capricorn. Likely constantly abuzz with wonderful ideas in your head, you are capable of bringing them to fruition now, as opposed to some sci-fi future 40 years from now (Aquarians are known to tune into the future, Capricorns have the steadfast power of now).  You have a fantastic imagination, a strong sense of justice and can birth great things. Inspire us with your abstract determination.

Show us how it’s done, you magical cuspy critter!

Note: About these dates January 17th to 23rd. It’s flexible. Hey, many astrologers will say “a planet can only be in one place at once”, so you’re either say 28 degrees Capricorn, or 2 degrees Aquarius for example. But us cuspies know that we can feel the influence of the other ruling planet. We believe a few days either side of the switch (which BTW shifts every year and depends on where in the world you decided to bust into this planet) feels about right.
