There are four elements in astrology, and each Zodiac sign is assigned to one element. One of those elements is fire, and there are 3 fire signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius The fire signs are full of energy, creativity, and spunk. These are the signs that love life and all of the experiences they can have. Aries is the first sign and takes the initiative; Leo is the fifth sign and adds creativity; and Sagittarius is the ninth sign and creates adventures. Fire Signs and Work
With work, fire signs bring that fiery energy with them, and they can take action with the work they want to be doing. They don't care to let others boss them around and tell them what to do, and want to make those choices on their own. They tend to be good entrepreneurs as a result, especially Aries and Sagittarius, since they're so independent.
Fire signs may not have the best work ethic though, and can lose interest quickly if they start to get bored by what they're doing. They need work that keeps them on their toes and doesn't let them dawdle. This is where something creative can be right up their ally, especially for Leo. If they enjoy what they're doing, they can throw themselves into it, but if they don't, they'll pout and wander until they quit (or get fired!). When it comes to their career, some fire signs know what they want early and dedicate themselves to it for life. Others have no clue, and may take a long time to settle on anything, if they even do. Once fire signs find something they're passionate about, they can put all of their energy into it. But, if they don't find that young, they may not make it a priority to find as they get older, and instead, see work as the thing that allows them to make money to do what they enjoy, rather than being anything they outright enjoy by itself. When it comes to money, fire signs love to spend money as much as they make it! These are the signs that feel money is burning a hole in their pocket. For some, money is spent on stuff and people, but for most fire signs, it's experiences that they value most, and that's where they prefer to spend money. Sagittarius in particular would want to spend money on experiencing education and travel. There is often a great opportunity to make a lot of money for the fire signs, so they tend to have potential, but they have to learn to hold some of what they make. Pay the bills, have some savings for emergencies - these are good things to do. All of this can apply to your Sun sign, however you may find that you most connect with the fire signs if your professional houses fall in these signs (2nd house of money, 6th house of work, and 10th house of career). Suggested Reading: Fire Signs in Astrology & Love Asteroid Talent is a positive asteroid (out of tens of thousands of asteroids, some of which link to not much and some of which can be kinda harsh). This is literally the asteroid of Talent, and in your natal chart, shows where your biggest talents are. In transit, Talent can show what talents are being spotlighted, how we're approaching them, and how well we're using them. You can find the location of your natal asteroid Talent for free using astro.com; in Extended Chart Selection, click on 'Additional objects', and add the number '33154' to the 'Manual entry' box, and generate your chart. For now, asteroid Talent is on the move to Libra, where it'll be for a little over 2 months. What does this do for us? Asteroid Talent in Libra 2023 Dates:
Asteroid Talent in Libra 2023 General Impact:
Asteroid Talent in Libra puts the asteroid of talent in the sign of relationships, partnerships, alliances, and commitments. This means we may benefit from talents involving others, where we're working with a partner, or where we're focusing on relationships and partnerships. Those who have a way with people, who are charming and mediating, can do best during this time.
Compromise and forging alliances can be helpful during this time as well, and anyone who has a talent for this can benefit. People who are professional negotiators and mediators can be elevated, and those who promote peace, harmony, and balance can get a boost. We may be more open to commitments, and we can find ways to make new commitments that are of benefit and showcase our talents, and we may feel more comfortable using our talents with partners or in committed relationships. We can also be more comfortable using our talents in one-on-one situations, and when we feel at ease. With Libra ruling other people, we may want to showcase the talents of others more than our own. We can shout out those we think are talented, and give support to the talents of those we care about. Note that asteroid Veritas, the asteroid of truth, enters Virgo on the same day that asteroid Talent enters Libra, so there might be some sort of link here with truths coming out relating to talents and others. Asteroid Talent in Libra 2023 Conjunctions:
Asteroid Talent conjuncts the Sun in Libra on October 4th 2023 at 11 degrees, and the Sun shines a light, so this aspect can shine a light on talents and give them more attention. We may also feel more creative with our talents.
A solar eclipse occurs in Libra on October 14th and it's widely conjunct asteroid Talent, so there can be major focus on some sort of talent with this eclipse, some big partnership, commitment, alliance, etc. (maybe a peace deal?). Talent also conjuncts Mercury in Libra on October 15th at 13 degrees, and this helps us communicate about talents, make use of mental talents, and use our minds with our talents. Asteroid Talent in Libra will also square, which is a challenging aspect, transit Pluto in Capricorn on November 10th at 28 degrees. I wanted to bring this one up since it's a challenging aspect, and with Pluto, there can be some fighting and frustration involved. We might be fighting over talents, or feel that the fighting we're experiencing is limiting our abilities. We may struggle to find middle ground, something the Libra energy wants, and feel that we're being controlled and manipulated with Pluto. We need to maximize the Libra energy and be open to compromise, and then commit to it. We need to avoid giving in the fights and letting aggravation win the day. Suggested Reading: Transit Asteroid Abundantia Aspects There are thousands of asteroids out there, and many of them link to something specific in astrology. One such asteroid is Veritas, the asteroid of truth. In your natal chart, it can show your connection to truth, how truthful you are, and where you need the truth, while in transit, Veritas can impact truth right now for all of us. Veritas is moving into Virgo, and will be in this sign for almost 11 months, an extended stay thanks to Veritas retrograding entirely in Virgo in 2024. What does this tour of Veritas in Virgo mean for us? Asteroid Veritas in Virgo 2023 - 2024 Dates:
Asteroid Veritas in Virgo 2023 - 2024 General Impact:
Virgo is the sign of work, daily life, health, and the details, so we may be focused on the truth with these things while Veritas is in Virgo. We may crave more truth in the work we do and in our work environments, and some may expose the truth about something with their job. It'll be hard to lie about how we feel about the work we do, and we need more honesty.
We may strive to have more truth in our daily lives as well, and can expose the truth about what's happening on a regular basis. This can open up new discussions, and we may feel better with the truth out in the open. Since Virgo is the sign of details, the details can matter more with Veritas in Virgo when it comes to the truth. We can't gloss over the details, the little things, and need to drill down to make sure we've got all of the facts and evidence and information. But, we can also struggle with seeing the big picture when it comes to the truth and can easily get lost in the details, so we have to be mindful of this. We can take a practical approach to the truth with Virgo being a practical earth sign, and we may be less emotional about it and more direct. Yet we may stress out about the truth way more as well with Virgo being a stressful sign, and especially while Veritas is retrograde in Virgo. This can amplify stress considerably, and we can have a hard time managing this, especially at the start of Veritas retrograde since it begins anaretic. There are 30 degrees in every Zodiac sign, and 29 degrees is the very last degree. This degree is called the anaretic degree, and it's supercharged crisis energy in transit. This means we have some supercharged crisis energy regarding truth around Veritas retrograde in January, and it can stress us out to the max, and we have to work on making sure we're evaluating everything honestly and practically. I fully anticipate there will be some sort of lie exposed, something uncovered that has been missed, or that something that is factual will be argued over in some way. Definitely watch this space! Not only that, but 2 days after Veritas retrograde begins, Pluto moves into Aquarius, so when the retrograde starts at 29 degrees Virgo, Pluto will be at 29 degrees Capricorn, which is trine (beneficial aspect). This might help us get to the heart of the matter, to investigate and find what we need to, in order to properly assess the truth. But it's all such supercharged energy that this likely isn't a little thing at all. Something big is coming! On a personal level, if you have any planets or bodies located at 29 degrees of any Zodiac sign, you may need to watch for lies and truth yourself around Veritas retrograde, and it's linked to whatever the planet or body rules. Veritas can be strongest in January at the anaretic degree and turning retrograde, so that's when we need to be most mindful of the truth. This can lessen as the retrograde goes on, though we may still feel fairly stressed about it. Veritas in Virgo only makes one conjunction (alignment) with another planet, and that's conjunct Venus in Virgo on October 24th 2023 at 24 degrees Virgo. This may expose some sort of truth relating to a relationship, partnership, alliance, or agreement with Venus, and we can have an easier time with the truth since Venus is a pleasant planet, but we may also get into it with others if we don't agree on what the truth is. We may need some objectivity. P.S. Asteroid Talent (asteroid of talents) enters Libra on the same day that Veritas enters Virgo, soooo could the details of some sort of partnership/alliance come out right at the start?
