Santa Fe Astrology Meetup

Intense and misunderstood, the Sun combust another planet in our natal chart (or in transits) can be confusing and dynamic when a planet is simply too close to the Sun's immense light and heat.

### ☀️ What is "Combust"?

A planet is considered Combust when it is within a certain distance (typically 8 degrees 30 seconds of the Sun.

• The Sun's Effect: Imagine standing too close to a powerful furnace. The planet's energy doesn't just combine with the Sun's; it is overwhelmed, neutralized, or burned up by the Sun's brilliance.
• The Experience: This placement doesn't eliminate the planet's function, but it makes that energy unconscious, driven, and difficult to express outwardly in a balanced way. The actions ruled by that planet become deeply intertwined with the ego and the core identity (the Sun).

### 🔍 What We Will Explore:

• The Interior Life: How a combust planet creates a highly internalized version of that planet's function. For example, a combust Mercury may result in thinking that is brilliant but happens entirely "inside your head."
• The Ego Drive: We will discuss how the Combust planet's function often becomes a hyper-focused, non-negotiable drive that the native must express through the ego.
• Case Studies: We will look at examples like Combust Venus (where affection/values are intensely tied to self-esteem) and Combust Mars (where action/anger is personally driven and difficult to see clearly).

Along with the 12th house, Saturn, the Moon, and retrograde planets, the nodes describe past life issues to be dealt with in this life. We will look at the messages in the nodes, then put them together with the other 4 influences to create past life stories. Bring paper and pen, as well as any other handouts.

The New Moon just before midnight on November 19 was a significant one with a kite pattern lasting into the beginning of December. There was also a significant Mercury Cazimi. We will look at those aspects as triggers for the future collectively. as well as finding the meaning in our charts, natally, as well as by transit. With the emphasis on Scorpio this could be all about digging deep and finding truth.
