Mercury in Libra inspires ideas, thoughts, and communications of partnership. Often under this influence, you tend to think in “we” rather than “me”. Your partner(s) and companions are considered in virtually every choice you make.
Yet with Jupiter in Cancer, there is growth and expansion in your own individual emotional identity. You find yourself opening up to new emotional experiences and a greater capacity for learning about how your emotional ties can affect your life choices.
When you grow emotionally, you may find that the relationships you are currently in are rooted in what emotionally served you before your growth occurred. Now, on the other side of your emotional expansion, you may be finding that you’ve outgrown some of your partnerships and one-on-one relationships.
This is how Mercury in Libra square Jupiter in Cancer, exact as of 7:20p PDT yesterday, September 19th, may show up for you in your life.
As you recognize that you are outgrowing (or have outgrown) some of your relationships or that together you are outgrowing the current contexts of them, you may realize that these relationships must undergo changes. You and your companions/partners get to have the conversations that clarify whether you are growing together or growing apart and if you can make the necessary changes that enable you to both grow into your individual Truths. These may not be easy conversations to have, especially if you are realizing the latter is the case. However, now is a great time to have them, especially if you’ve been avoiding having them for a while.
Through these often challenging conversations, you may find that you are in relationships that grow with you. You may recognize how you and your partner can support and encourage each other into your highest individual expressions. You may find that through your union, you can move forward in ways that allow you to make greater contributions to the world – separately and together – than you ever could do alone.
Yet you may also find those relationships in your life which you allow to keep you from becoming all that you want and need to be in the world. If you find yourself feeling held back from your personal emotional growth, you may need to release yourself from partnerships that no longer serve you. These endings may find you feeling simultaneously liberated and sad, especially if these relationships have been emotional cornerstones of your life for a long time. Yet these endings may also very well provide beginnings that give you the freedom and access to what you really and truly need in order to fully step all you are here to be in this world.
Healthy, happy, and fulfilling relationships that emotionally nurture, support, and encourage you will enhance your life and assist you in expansion of who you are in the world. Take the time to assess who the people are in your life who can contribute to you and your life in ways that emotionally nurture and fulfill you. You probably already know who they are – just honor your feelings in this regard. This Mercury-Jupiter square gives you a very special opportunity to have these conversations and work these matters out in a profound way through early Sunday, September 22nd.
Thank you for reading and sharing Signs and Numbers. Until next post…
