This Message is for Ariana Grande 💞
Every morning I sit down at my desk and I journal, usually check out astrology charts and see where the wind blows me. Today, I was curious about other people who have Capricorn Rising and Scorpio MC. Some people on this list include Sean Connery, Monica Bellucci and Megan Fox. It’s a powerful combination, very intimidating, and usually marked by a touch of mystery and darkness. I have this combination with Sun, Mars, and Pluto tucked tightly into my Scorpio MC along with a full house of Capricorn placements. I have walked that path of darkness for a long time. Ergo, when I saw that Ariana was part of our little Hades club, I checked her chart and a few things immediately stood out to me. First, she and I have our MC at 6 degrees Scorpio, with an IC of course at 6 degrees Taurus. This is curious to me as the outer planets are getting ready to move over this 6 degree point in 2027 as part of a supportive Magic Triangle at 6 degrees Uranus Neptune Pluto Magic Triangle on June 6 2027. Pluto will square off to our MC in Scorpio, which I can only imagine what that might bring up (for me it’s seeming like a showdown with my estranged father). More so, we both have other planets at 6 degrees, including my Mercury at 6 degrees Sagittarius, and Ariane’s Moon at 6 degrees Libra. Together, our placements of Moon, Mercury, and the MC/IC axis form a YOD, or the finger of God. It indicates great friction, as the Moon and Mercury form inconjunct aspects to the Taurus IC, while making a supportive sextile to one another. I was not at all surprised to see that Ariana has had difficulties with her father. I’ve gone through that same song and dance with the Scorpio MC/Pluto in 10H. I believe, among other things, our 10H represents the father. With our Scorpio Pluto here, there is a power struggle and often manipulation coming from the father. It is powerful to have Pluto here, but only because we had to learn from a young age how to defend ourselves and see through psychological traps.
Anyways, when I look at synastry, I always like to check out progressed charts too. Since Ariana is a couple years younger than me, her chart placements have moved over our same axis points I went through around 2020/2021, mainly, her progressed Moon moving through the 12H. I use Placidus house system, so as of today, her Moon is right on that 12H cusp of Sagittarius. It’s moving into the dark realm, the house of dreams, subconscious, instituionazation, unseen, and unfortunately, mental disorder. I was there not too long ago, in this same capacity and woof. Ariana, I FEEL for you. I see you. While a progress Saggitarious moon can be boyant and fun, (I have this natally right by my Mercury), once in the 12H, it becomes muted, locked away, and overall depressed. When this moon hit my 12H, I was going through a gut wrenching breakup. As a water sign with numerous 8H placements, heartbreak feels entirely like death. It is visceral, excruciating, and all consuming. The bright side to the situation, is that we both have our 11H cusp in Sagitarious. So, in times of distress, we turn to sprituality and philosophy. It was during this dreadful time I began to study astrology in earnest. I reached for anything to get me through the calamity of my life, which was concurrent with Covid-19 and beginning a high-powered albeit terribly toxic job for local billionaire. As my moon moved from Sagiterious to Capricorn, sadly, the depression intensified. I entered into a new, somehow more predatory and damaging relationship. I was overworked, scared, alone, and frankly sucicial. Those days were characterized in. My mind as literal darkness living in Seattle, but mental anguish too. I felt lost and alone, even as the Moon exited my 12H, it still had to move through the rest of my Capricorn 1H. Reaching Aquarius in 2021, the pressure valve began to lift. I took on a new role and met my now husband. I began to smile again, laugh. My state of mind improved dramatically. I now sit here, in my progressed Pisces moon era and shudder thinking of the days of a progressed 12H moon.
If there is anything I can offer to Ariana, it’s to lean into our 12H Sagitarious cusp. Deep down, we are both perpetual optimists. I believe God granted us this gift, to get us through times like this. Scorpio and Capricorn placements will inevitably experience trauma and pain. The way we work through it is sprituality, whatever that means to you. I turned greatly to yoga, journaling, the Artist Way, music, including the Positions album, and whatever I could convince myself that better days were coming. And, they are! For Ariana, progressed Venus will move to trine Saturn in 2029, sextile her Mars in 2031, and a few years later conjunct her Cancer Sun! That is just incredible once in a lifetime energy back to back. I bet she gets married again but this time to a real soulmate and something with longevity. It’s progressed astrology like this that got me through the Capricorn moon time period of my life. I dug and dug into charts until I found hope. I can say now with absolute certainty that those progressions for me did come to pass and now I have this gift to help better navigate my life and those of my loved ones. I do not believe that this Wicked production was so healing as Ariana has said, but rather more damaging, sadly. Instead, Ariana will be working through a lifetime of trauma through early 2029, when her progressed Moon goes to Aquarius. I am going to be rooting for her. I see the kind soul in her chart. I know it’s there and I know her musical talent has been a lighthouse for so many. I predict, by the time we get to that Aquarius moon, Ariana will reach a new peak, but this time giving voice to the most poor and destitute among us. Aquarius, after all, is the sign of the humanitarian and Ariana has that emotional depth as a water sign to speak up for what is right. You go Ariana. Don’t be afraid of the dark. It’s only shaping who you are to become. If you ever want to talk just let me know.
