Astrological Tidbit

Fortunately the start of this week brings the decline of the Jupiter Pluto opposition, so cardinal signs, Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn can start to breath a sigh of relief.  Pressure is still with us but some of it has deflated.  The first day of this week brings with it Mercury and Saturn in square aspect, Mercury and Saturn work well together they bring common sense and practical solutions to problems, but the square aspect may create difficulty in getting to those common sense solutions, the fixed signs in particular, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius may find no matter how logical something seems to them they get push back.  So my advice is for these signs or anyone who feels push back wait until mid week to push forward your good ideas.  I think one word of caution should suffice for all, this is also an aspect of worry so do what you can to stay out of that worrying space we can all fall into.

Mid week the Moon in Scorpio will trine Jupiter, nice energy for making a financial decision, you may want to purchase something that beautifies the home or adds value to your home, great day for that decision or choice.

The planet Mars goes void of course, except for a few days when the Moon makes aspects with it.  This is actually good news as Mars has been stirring up some difficult energy in general.  Even when its not affecting our personal charts we feel the angst.  Mars is the instigator so even when the big players like Uranus and Pluto are acting out, it’s a general energy that causes issues but add Mars and it become much more active and aggressive.  So except for 8/11 things should have a calmer undertone than they did last week.

Saturday the Moon is back at work stirring up feelings of distrust when it conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn, it will also square Uranus the same day.  Like Mars the Moon can stir up underlying issues that we have not discussed, the Moon represents emotions so things come to the surface or attempt to come to the surface, when we ignore that energy we can become passive aggressive or self destructive, and anger can erupt because of held in emotions.  This is especially true for the cardinal signs again.

Friday evening the planet Venus moves into the sign of Libra, this is a sign of balance and fairness so lets hope she can keep some of those more difficult energies under control.  Venus’s passage into this sign does put her in the line of fire for the intense cardinal energy we have going on in the sky, since Venus is the planet of love it’s a time when relationships may become highlighted.  So if you have relationship issues this may be a time to work on them and take the steps needed to create the harmony both you and someone else need.
