So… we’ve got the wind at our backs, we’re holding onto our hats, here’s the week ahead beginning Sunday, March 20^th, 2011…

.     .     .     .     .

Well… I’d have to say that this looks like another week of big power for us…

 

Last week, we took a look at the Super Full Moon in Virgo that occurred on Saturday, March 19^th, and we’re certainly still in the energy it – and we’re also moving toward the Spring Equinox this week when the Sun moves into fiery Aries – and also immediately conjuncts our unpredictable friend Uranus at 0 point Aries.

 

And not only will the Sun be igniting Uranus at 0 point Aries, he’ll be moving toward locking horns with forceful Pluto at the end of the month, so I’d say I’d say we should be expecting more sudden changes, and probably right out of the blue. The life-giving Sun connecting with the planet of change and revolutionary Uranus at the Spring Equinox hasn’t happened in over 300 years.  So to say that this is a revolutionary time is kind of an understatement. Life will be shifting.  On the plus side though, look for revolutionary breakthroughs in computer technology – and medical breakthroughs dealing with anything related to the head over these next eight years.

 

Not to be outdone, our Super Full Moon – and a super moon occurs when the Moon is closest to the earth and is also said to have a greater effect than usual – hasn’t been this close to the Earth in over eighteen years.  And this, of course, is expected to intensify everything full moons are known for…

 

Now, looking forward just a bit, the end of March will NOT be a good time to begin new projects or to make big moves forward if we can help it.  Not only will fleet-footed Mercury be standing still just before he moves into apparent retrograde motion on March 30^th, but he’ll be doing this essentially at the same time as the enormous Jupiter/Saturn opposition that will be occurring then.  These two giants will be acting out a tug of war from opposite sides of the planet.  This is their third time to face off since last year – and this only occurs every 20 years or so.  And, if that’s not enough heat for us, the Sun will also be squaring off with extreme and intense Pluto on the 28^th as well.  I’ll be talking a lot more about these powerful aspects in the coming couple of weeks…

 

So, if we have our ducks sufficiently lined up, these couple of weeks would be THE time to make the move and not procrastinate – otherwise we’ll be better served to wait till after April 23^rd when Mercury turns direct…and actually, we’ll probably want to wait a week or so AFTER April 23^rd to give speedy Mercury some time to get some legs under him and start moving forward again…

 

.     .     .     .     .

But for now, let’s take a look at the week ahead…

 

Sunday, March 20^th, is when the life-giving Sun enters fast and fiery Aries for the next month.  Happy Vernal Equinox – and Happy Birthday and Happy Solar Return to all the Aries of the world!  This is the time of the year when we’ll feel strong and fearless.  This is when we come out of hibernation and want to jump on our Harleys and let the wind blow through our hair!  We’ll be feeling confident and determined to make that new beginning – what we need to watch for, given the other dynamic energy all around us – is to make sure this energy doesn’t surface as aggression, anger, or total self-centeredness…

 

Especially given that the Sun will also be making his conjunction with destabilizing Uranus on Monday – and moving into that square with Pluto later in the month.  We’ll want to go for our dreams – but be a little mindful as we do it – so there’s nothing waiting to bite back later on!

 

We should breathe the fresh air of new beginnings, but tread as softly as we can in making changes.  Any babies we throw out with the bathwater won’t be coming back anytime soon – so we should be mindful if we close doors too forcefully.  And we need to be absolutely sure it’s what we want to do.  Though it may be absolutely appropriate – but it’s the manner of closing that door that could lead to a severe confrontation.  No need for that one at all…

 

So, then, on Monday, March 21^st, when the Sun makes his conjunction with Uranus, we should be ready for surprises, shocks and shifts of consciousness.  Totally out of the blue.

 

And we probably won’t be able to keep ourselves from feeling spontaneous – and being completely and surprisingly open to new experiences, new people, and new situations.  And if we’ve been wanting to break free from some old dusty habit or make big sweeping changes in our lifestyles – this could be the day we’ve been waiting for.  Creativity may practically burst into our lives as well… we should be ready to record any flashes of inspiration!

 

And then finally on Saturday, March 26^th, delicious Venus will dance with dreamy Neptune.  This is an enormously creative energy.  And it could also bring us inspiring romance – or deception at its finest.

 

Our hearts can open – and it’s also a magical time for manifesting our desires — though it’s also essential that we remove any rose-colored glasses and take a good clear seeing look at any major situations arise in our lives.  Especially if major changes seem necessary, we might want to step back and wait it out for a bit before jumping in with both feet!

 

.     .     .     .     .

And… this week, I want to talk about just how each sign will experience the Uranian charged Spring Equinox, and a little bit of what to expect over the next few months… and as always, this will apply to your Sun sign and Ascendant/Rising sign if you know it…

Aries

Get ready for incredible, enormous change in your life.  Starting right now.  Expect your life, your relationships—and even who you are today – to change in radical ways.  Prepare for excitement – and maybe some shock waves.  Open the door to your new life knocking at the door!

Taurus

Revelations and dreams will be flashing through your life.  Expanded, keen intuition will be speaking to you in many surprising ways. Doors will be opening in unexpected ways, too, that will be leading you in an entirely new direction over the next few months and years.

Gemini

Your hope and wishes are going to get exciting and new.  And friends can be a catalyst to exhilarating new beginnings.  Your world can rock and seem unstable though, so be ready for that!

Cancer

Your career and professional world are about to rumble.  Things may feel disruptive, but new doors will be opening in surprising ways.  A new path will be unfolding before you now.

Leo

Exciting, life changing, mind-expanding experiences are on your agenda.  Expansive awakening may shake your world – but will also bring you new sudden power.  Don’t be afraid to think big!  And you might consider dusting off your passport, too!

Virgo

Mystical experiences can light up your life.  Old emotional dramas involving others around you will see the light of day – and you could also see a surprising shake up in shared resources.  Be ready.

Libra

Look for relationships and partnerships to undergo radical change, evolve or abruptly dissolve.  New people could enter your life just as swiftly as your horizons expand.

Scorpio

Don’t expect your daily routine to be so routine anymore.  Look for surprising changes in your work, and even among co-workers.  Expect the unexpected.  You may also find yourself finally deciding to follow a secret dream of yours.

Sagittarius

Your creativity and/or romance are in for a big shake up.  Look for excitement and change to burst onto the scene.  Children could present you with a shock or two as well.  Pleasure in your life is about to get very interesting!

Capricorn

Home and family life could get exciting – in fact changes could rock your world.  Be ready for sudden or surprising shifts in or around your home that will be preparing you for an expanded life!

Aquarius

Your mind and thoughts will be nearly electrified.  Bolts from the blue will  be sending you off in new directions.  Communication of all kinds will bring exciting, unusual news for you to use.

Pisces

New out-of-the-ordinary ways of earning money will come out of nowhere.  Be ready to grab them.  Your income and finances will be changing – don’t be afraid to take a risk.  Reach for the stars!

.  .  .  .  .

So… we’ve got the wind at our backs, we’re holding onto our hats, here’s the week ahead in eight minutes or less … and this then is for the week beginning Sunday, June 13^th,  2010…

Gratefully, we actually have a milder week ahead, planetarily speaking – for a change! But while there aren’t as many – or as dramatic – planetary aspects this week, as we’ve probably noticed these days we’re being forced to look at and deal with areas in our life that need a change… but we’ve also been gifted with magnificent energies lately that encourage, allow – or push – those changes to unfold…and our lives to begin to be  transformed…

Specifically, Saturn and Neptune have now both changed direction – Saturn has gone forward and Neptune has turned retrograde.

Saturn is about creating the structures in our lives and we’ll be able to see new ways of dealing with those structures now – and Neptune is deepening our connection with the invisible and with spirit.  And he’s going to be turning us within now…

And also, Uranus and Jupiter have both moved into fiery Aries – and these two giants are bringing us the possibility for outrageous – and sometimes explosive – change in our lives.

And on Saturday, June 12^th …we’re very much under the influence of the Gemini New Moon…ordinarily the Gemini New Moon is an airy social experience, but this New Moon is also squared by the Taskmaster Saturn, and that connection may temper or even restrain our brilliant new ideas and/or how we approach them in some way.  It’s definitely a more serious Gemini New Moon than usual!

Sunday, June 13^th, is quiet planetarially speaking… but the Moon is traveling through her own sign of Cancer – and in the very early hours, opposes Pluto… and we may be a bit more emotional and at the same time feel we need to push or we’re being pushed… This is just one of those days when, if we feel we absolutely MUST do something, don’t.  If we can have patience today, we’ll see the boulder roll away by itself… so sit tight.  Act later this week…

Monday, June 14^th, Venus enters Leo and she trines Uranus – and relationships will become more important and enjoyable for the few weeks till July 10^th when she enters earthy Virgo… and right now Venus is also forming a sensuous trine to that Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Aries – and there’ll definitely be romance and excitement available to us if we want it!  And, if we DO want it, this is the time for us to get out and be available for those new and exciting – and maybe a little unpredictable – people to cross our paths!

Also, when spicy Venus is making that trine to Uranus and Jupiter, intuitive flashes can happen in an instant and bring excitement and insight to our relationships, finances, and our creativity!  So, pay attention to those intuitions and watch for insightful fireworks!
Now, Tuesday, June 15^th, can be a totally delicious day!  Today Venus makes her exact flowing trine to abundant Jupiter – and her cohort, Mars, trines Pluto.  This is the day to take action and not hold back.  It’s a day of plenty in all kinds of scrumptious ways – and the Mars/Pluto aspect reinforces and quadruples that abundant feel-good energy of the Venus/Jupiter aspect.  We’re confident today.  And it’s also an especially lucky day!   Make hay while that glorious sun shines!!

Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, June 15^th, 16^th and 17^th, really belong to the Moon as she travels through Virgo.  And we’ll have opportunities to get organized and take care of business – and ourselves.  And she also squares the Sun in her quarter moon phase.  The quarter moon often brings us something off-kilter, and some uncertainty or uneasiness – and sometimes a crises in the area of life she’s encountering.  So there may be an unexpected health or work issue that needs to be taken care of…

And finally, Saturday, June 19^th, the Sun squares off with Saturn and we can find ourselves or those around us feeling insecure or saturated in self-doubt.  We may experience a wave of negativity or even nagging.   So, today we should look at ourselves and situations with as much gentleness as we can, love as much of it all as we can – and then step forward and move on.  Also, something that’s just begging for change can show up for us now.  And if we do feel some unhappiness today, we should look at it as a roadmap to reach our happiness – because it’s allowing us to see what we really REALLY do want… and make new choices to get there…
And… though all of this not-always-so-happy energy, the Sun also forms a graceful trine aspect to Neptune…and we can touch all those things that we consider dreams.  And be proactive and move powerfully toward those dreams.

Today, it’s also important that we take time to look within and/or connect with All-That-Is in whatever way that flows for us… and to let go and sparkle and drift down the stream – to what we truly want in our lives!

.     .     .     .     .

Now, this week I want to talk about how and where each sign will experience this Gemini New Moon energy – and as always, this will apply to your Sun sign and Rising/Ascendant sign, if you know it.

Aries. Communications of all kinds increase for you.  Have fun with them!  Take some short trips and get out and about.  Be social now.  It will clear your thinking and inspire you.

Taurus. Your finances can get a boost now, and you can have some inspiration to increase your income.  You might also find yourself involved in some fun buying and/or selling activities that gives you a boost.

Gemini. This is your time for fresh starts in your personal life – even your appearance can get a boost now!  Stay optimistic and send or accept invitations.  You can make some good connections now.

Cancer. Things hidden can be revealed now.  And if you’ve been waiting for some information, it’s there for you.  You may also have a view of the future – but don’t make decisions yet.

Leo. Social contacts and opportunities to reach your deepest wishes are here.  You may also find that friends or groups can help you increase income from your career, so stay open to that possibility.

Virgo. New opportunities can appear in your career or business life.  Think outside the box now.  You may also have an opportunity for a change of job, new career responsibilities or even a promotion.

Libra. Interests at a distance can present themselves to you, and you may find yourself making plans for new educational opportunities – or travel.  Make your plans and think in big ways.

Scorpio. Sharing emotional and financial resources will be important now.  Attending to intimacy and private transactions will benefit you, and be practical now for your greatest success.

Sagittarius. Partnerships and marriage may see a new beginning.  Let the past go and begin again.  Cooperation and listening will be important for you to reap the biggest rewards.

Capricorn. Employment matters, health and diet can be successful now.  Improving your physical condition and efficiency can put you on the fast track, and looking to new methods in your everyday life can also open doors for you.

Aquarius. Creative talents and new pleasures are in store for you if you want them!  New avenues for self-expression and making fun a priority will actually bring you surprising success other areas of your life.

Pisces. A renewal or new beginning is here for your home and family life.  And any issues that have been pending in your base of operations can receive new inspiration.  Plant seeds now for your future success.  It’s almost here!

.  .  .  .  .

So… we’ve got the wind at our backs, we’re holding onto our hats, here’s the week ahead in eight minutes or less … and this then is for the week beginning Sunday, June 6^th,  2010…

And this week, we have even more twists and turns and energy shifts ahead for us!

…Jupiter leaves Pisces and enters Aries, Mars FINALLY leaves Leo and enters Virgo,  Mercury is very active as he FINALLY leaves Taurus and enters Gemini, and the Biggie-of-the-Week, Jupiter conjunct Uranus… and later this month we’ll also have a lunar eclipse in Cancer.

This eclipse will be activating one of the points of the four-sign grand cross coming up in August… Just know that all of this means that we’ll all have major changes in our lives – and we’ll want to think about being balanced, but flexible, over the next few months… and we’ll have more specifics about all of that as we go along!

So – let’s go!

First, late on Saturday, June 5^th, a whole new major 12-year cycle begins for us – with Jupiter entering the pioneering warrior sign of ARIES…. On this go-round, he’ll remain in Aries through September 8^th when he briefly moves back into Pisces, and then next January moves into Aries to stay till June of 2011.

It’s going to be powerful time for new beginnings of all kinds – especially for being in touch with and empowering our inner pioneers and warriors.  And because later this week, Jupiter will conjunct the Grand Awakener Uranus, these energies are amped up and accelerated!   And over the next few months, and years actually, watch for major breakthroughs in the electronic, energetic and medical arenas!

…and then late on Sunday, June 6^th, after almost eight months in Leo(!), Mars FINALLY enters Virgo where he’ll travel till July 29^th…

Mars in Virgo is going to be about getting down to business and help us take care of practical things, and we’ll have a lot of energy for working in practical ways, and we’ll be going for accomplishment.  We should feel a change and a difference in the direction our energy takes now.

Tuesday, June 8^th, is a very very powerful day!  Jupiter conjuncts Uranus – and the communicator Mercury moves into his own sign of Gemini and is wildly busy for the next couple of days!

The combined energy of Jupiter and Uranus in Aries is going to be a bold and outrageously potent time for all of us… this is a time of breakthroughs.  Aries is the pioneer, the trailblazer, and Jupiter is the traveler, the adventurer.  Old ways of looking at things, and old ways of looking at ourselves, can be released in a blazing wave of change.  However, since Jupiter is still making stressful contacts with Saturn, Uranus and Pluto, the old and new can lock horns – so be ready to catch the wave, but stay mindful.
…and this is an extremely powerful combination – it’s the time to take risks if you really, really believe in what you’re doing!  The energy of intuition, brilliance and wisdom are all around us.  Big bright bold new ideas can blossom and bloom now.  And this aspect hasn’t happened for 14 years!  And it’s just a great time for starting new projects and exploding into a newness we weren’t even aware of a year ago.  So act quickly, after thinking of course!  And make hay while the sun shines, so to speak!

This can also be a powerful time break an old habit, make big changes or start new projects – and if you’re working on the elimination end of things, it’s best to begin before the June New Moon on Saturday, the 12^th – but if you’re launching something, begin it after the New Moon.

Also on Tuesday, June 8^th, Mercury enters Gemini til June 25^th… and he’s exceptionally busy for these couple of days…

Since, he’s moving into his own sign of Gemini, so he’ll be very feisty and happy – and he’ll be wanting communications to move very, very fast!  And he’ll fill our minds with avalanches of ideas.  We’ll also be able to articulate and analyze ideas and information easier  now.  And the month ahead will be very social – if we want it to be! – especially since Venus moves into passionate Leo later this week!  If you don’t want new social friends and lovers – stay home and hide for the next month!  Otherwise – get out, and see and be seen!

And… since Mercury also forms a flowing 120 degree aspect to Saturn today, we’re going to be able to see our goals very clearly – and be able to make the plans to get where we want to go!

But then, early on Wednesday, June 9^th, Mercury will square off in a 90 degree aspect with Neptune – and our mental focus could get a bit fuzzy or confused…  we may also experience some disappointment or disillusionment in communications.  This will be a day to step back and listen more than we talk!  And be more flexible in what we think we know about someone or something in our lives.

But on the plus side, we may also be able to enter into a hazy, mystical space and receive information or messages from an unseen realm… we just need to be sure to check all the facts before we put any revelations and insights we receive into motion!
Thursday, June 10^th, Mercury forms a 60 degree aspect of opportunity to Jupiter and Uranus – and we’ll have ideas, ideas, ideas – and the opportunity and ability to express them clearly!  What a gift!  Today we can part any fog that may have enveloped us over the last couple of days – and see a bigger picture.  Our perspective can change, and we can see patterns in our lives – and how we got here – and where we want to go!  We can touch a great optimism – and feel very adventurous!  Don’t be afraid to reach out for excitement!
…and then, on Friday, June 11^th, Mercury will square off with Mars
and we may have a tendency to sweat the small stuff.  This is a very abrupt energy – and might leave us with some anxiety and tension.  Conflict, arguments or accidents might plague the day – but we can also be proactive and harness this abundant energy to get things done and/or have the courage to do something that’s long overdue!
…and then on Saturday, June 12^th at 7:14 AM, we’ve got a sparkling, effervescent New Moon at 22° Gemini – and fresh beginnings in communicating, speaking, writing learning, teaching – and communications of all kinds are supported – this is a great time to get out and made new contacts!  And all of this is emphasized, remember, because communicator Mercury is traveling through his own sign of Gemini as well…

Finally, Sunday, June 14^th, Venus enters passionate Leo until July 10^th… and we’ll be up for enjoyment, love and pleasure – especially since Venus is forming a flowing trine aspect to that electric Jupiter/Uranus conjunction!

This will be a time to reach out for a new adventure and get ourselves out there and join in the ‘party’ and play!  Or turn on our creative switches and just let go!

.     .     .     .     .

Now, this week I want to talk about how and where each sign will be feeling this electric conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus in Aries – and as always, this will apply to your Sun sign and Rising/Ascendant sign, if you know it.

Aries.  You’ve got a bold new start and new opportunities at your doorstep – right now!  Use this blast of energy to begin something – if you don’t know what you want to begin, just wait a couple few weeks and you WILL!

Taurus.  Your immediate future can get pretty exhilarating.  And be prepared for blazing flashes of intuition and psychic revelations – especially in your dreams. Let old dusty things go.  Walk into the newness!

Gemini. Be ready for surprises from friends and associates!  They can inspire you and rock your world.  This is the moment to decide what your hopes and wishes are and what you really really want!  Make a list and make it clear!

Cancer.  Surprises are in store for you in your career.  Expansive opportunities, shifts and changes – and exciting fresh starts – are here.  Don’t be afraid to leave the past behind and start something new.  You’ll be doing it anyway!

Leo. Out-of-the blue mind-expanding possibilities are going to blaze into your world.  Think big.  And then think bigger!  People or things from a distance will inspire you.  Think outside the box, look up – and see those far distant horizons!

Virgo. Life-changing psychic experiences and exciting new opportunities for sharing resources – are about to bolt into your life!  Drop anything stale in your life – and allow yourself to go where you’ve not gone before!

Libra. Unconventional or surprising people are going to shake your world and change it forever.  You might find yourself making some new choices or rethinking old commitments.  Your partnerships are about to get bold, exciting and unpredictable.

Scorpio. Surprising and/or startling changes will shake you out of any recent boredom in your everyday life.   And your job and daily routine is going to open up in ways you never imagined.  Think about using energetics in a new way…

Sagittarius. Electric changes are coming for you in love, pleasure and creativity – and generous, if unconventional, people and things are about to rock your world!   An exciting new journey is beginning.  Dance to the new music!

Capricorn. Your home or family life is in for some surprising changes.  Home life can get unpredictable – but be exciting.  You might even make an unforeseen move that opens your world even wider!

Aquarius. Communications that expand your world can come like bolts from the blue.  Let go of old patterns of thinking.  They’re holding you back!   Let go of old stale thinking and allow your world to be rocked!

Pisces. A big new inspiration or possibility about finances can expand your world – and it can come as a surprise, so be ready to grab the proverbial brass ring!  New possibilities are there for you – so don’t be afraid to think outside the box!

So… we’ve got the wind at our backs, we’re holding onto our hats, here’s the week ahead in eight minutes or less … and this then is for the week beginning Sunday, May 30^th,  2010…

.     .     .     .     .

Well… Big things are stirring and beginning now… Eclipse season is starting again, leading us into several t-squares in the Cardinal signs – and, of course, that Cardinal sign Grand Cross is still ahead on August 7th.  And later this month – on June 26^th – we’ll have a partial lunar eclipse in early Capricorn – essentially leading us into the total solar eclipse in July – and also taking her seat as part of the Grand Cardinal Cross coming up in August.   Both eclipses, along with other major planetary activity – are about powerful change, transformation and probably more than a little drama …more about this as we go along in future SkyeWatch Reports!  …there’s just not enough time to cover it all now!

At any rate, excitement is in the air… and some of the excitement we feel is due to Jupiter moving just behind Uranus.  They meet in fiery Aries on June 8^th – and the last time they met was fourteen years ago!

But back to this week – the Moon is very busy – and we’ve got several major energetic shifts at our door…

Uranus moved into Aries last Thursday, and he’s about waking us up and forcing us to move forward – and will likely bring earth-shaking changes over these next few months – and then over the next seven years… watch for major discoveries, revelations and leaps in technology!

Other energies of the week include the fact that Mercury finally left his ending “shadow point” on May 28^th,…this weekend Saturn turns direct, …Neptune turns retrograde, …Mars opposes and faces off with Neptune — …and the biggie this week as I mentioned – is Jupiter entering Aries joining electric Uranus.  They’ll be conjunct on June 8^th in Aries – and doors will blast open in the area of your or chart where this conjunction takes place!

And  basically the meaning of Mercury leaving his “shadow” (and the ‘retrograde shadow’ of any plane  is simply the degree at which it originally went retrograde – in this case Mercury back on April 18^th) is that all those things that may have gotten, or have continued to be, snarled during the retrograde, can finally – once and for all – clear up and be resolved… Oh look out! I’m beginning to feel another halleluiah bubbling up!

Then we begin on Sunday, May 30^th, with Saturn turning direct.  There could be a collective sigh of relief with this one – especially for those of us with Saturn prominently placed in our charts, either natally or by transit – and we may feel a new clarity or a burden lifting – and being able to leave old dusty things in the past and move forward.  This potent aspect also begins a rapid succession of other powerful aspects over the next week or two and will turn the heat up accordingly.

And then, late in the evening on Monday, May 31^st, the Moon moves from business-oriented Capricorn to humanitarian Aquarius – and we have a couple of cool emotional days … especially since another major energy shift is here also…

Neptune turns retrograde in Aquarius, the sign of electricity and vibrations, and we’ll be tuning in to frequencies around us and not even know why!  And during this time when Neptune sits motionless, this energy will be even more intense.  Our inner radar is heightened now and “psychic hits” come out of the blue – and perceiving the mystical –can become even more powerful.  Our dreams could be more vivid and even prophetic now.  And during this time while Neptune is retrograde, it’s vital that we do our internal work, or we may find we experience hazy feelings of disappointment, disillusion or a vague dissatisfaction.

We may also feel a bit foggy around this time, so we should be prepared for that, too!

And on Tuesday June 1st and Wednesday, June 2^nd, there are only two aspects – both made by the Moon…

On Tuesday, the Moon forms a beneficial trine aspect to the Sun, and we can feel confident and make some excellent contacts if we’re so inclined.  We’ll have a ‘best foot forward’ feeling about us…

And then on Wednesday, the Moon in Aquarius will square off with Mercury – and today will be better to back off and avoid potential misunderstandings caused by unintentional – or intentional! – remarks.  And we should take care in perceiving the truth, our own or others’…

Thursday June 3rd also belongs to the Moon…but today, she’s very active in two signs…

First she opposes Mars and conjuncts Neptune, before she enters mystical Pisces and forms an aspect of opportunity with Pluto…basically, we have a seesaw of emotions, experiences and opportunities…

We can feel wildly energetic, dreamy, and powerful sequentially – or almost all at once – today.  So, we’ll want to have the patience and wait things out if before having any important heart-to-heart discussions if we can…

And on Friday, June 4^th, Mars will oppose Neptune – and it’s important that we stay grounded.  We could experience insensitivity, our own or others’, misrepresentation or deception – and a whole lot of ‘me first’ energy.  We need to be alert to disappointment now, and not take action until we truly understand everything – especially things hidden – or maybe revealed – to us.

And this aspect also occurs at the last quarter of the Moon in Pisces, adding to the uncertainty.  Today is a good day to step back, lay low, and avoid confrontation.  Just wait it out…

Then on Saturday June 5^th, we have another major energetic shift…

Jupiter enters Aries till September 7^th – and joins rebellious Uranus who’s already there in Aries …Jupiter in Aries will be a bold time…a time of breakthroughs.  Aries is the pioneer, the trailblazer, and Jupiter is the seeker, the traveler, the adventurer.  Old ways of looking at things, and old ways of looking at ourselves, can – and probably will – be released in a blazing wave of change.  However, since Jupiter will shortly conjunct Uranus – and still making stressful contacts with Saturn and Pluto, the old and new can lock horns – so be ready to catch the wave, but stay mindful.  Think first and then act.  If you can…

Now, this week I want to talk about how and where each sign will be feeling this powerful movement of Jupiter into Aries – and keep in mind that this is made even more potent because he’s joining Uranus in Aries as well – and as always, this will apply to your Sun sign and Rising/Ascendant sign, if you know it.

Aries. New starts, new opportunities – and new optimism – is waiting for you!  You might even find yourself on a new adventure or unexpected travels.  And you might even feel even more fiery, more impulsive or impatient than usual – so don’t let that cause some unanticipated and/or undesired fireworks!

Taurus. Bold exhilarating dreams – waking or sleeping – are about to expand your world.  Don’t fight it!  The future may be unpredictable, but it’s going to get exciting very fast.  Let go of the past and be ready for the unexpected to reveal itself to you.

Gemini. Hopes and dreams can absolutely come true now – and new friends and associations can be expansive – and electric – for you!  It’s an exciting turning point for your hopes and wishes!  Think outside the box when it comes to what you really, really want!

Cancer. Surprising, expansive opportunities, shifts and changes – and exciting fresh starts – are in store for your career.  Don’t be afraid to start something new and leave the past behind.  Just do it with your usual tender care!  If you can!

Leo. Surprising or out-of-the blue mind-expanding travel are about to explode your horizons!  Far-off people or places can inspire you – or even reach out to you.  See the new possibilities.  Look all the way to those far distant horizons!

Virgo. Take a chance on a new partnership – and be prepared to share in a whole new way.  New intimate experiences, unexpected opportunities for shared resources – and life-changing psychic experiences – are about to bolt into your life!  Allow yourself to go where you’ve not gone before!

Libra. Your partnership world is about to get bold, exciting and unpredictable.  Unconventional or surprising people are going to shake your world and change it forever.  You might find yourself making some new choices or rethinking old commitments.  And I’ll say it again — hold onto your hats!

Scorpio. Your everyday life is about to become upbeat and enthusiastic – and you’ll probably find daily routine and job possibilities expanding – did I say exploding?! – and surprising and/or even startling changes will shake you out of any recent boredom!

Sagittarius. Your own ruler, expansive, optimistic Jupiter is dancing into your love life.  Big changes are coming for you in love, pleasure and creativity – and generous, unconventional people and things are about to rock your world!   An exciting new journey is beginning.  Step into it boldly!

Capricorn. Enthusiastic and liberating change will be lighting up and brightening your home or family life.  Expansive joy merges with the unpredictable leading you  to newness, change, expanding – or even an optimistic move.  Allow yourself that buoyant gift!

Aquarius. Old patterns of thinking will explode and dissolve, and communications like bolts from the blue will expand your world.  Let go of old stale thinking and allow your world to be rocked!

Pisces. You’re finances are going to receive the blessing of expansive Jupiter – and you’re going to be inspired and thinking BIG about new possibilities.  Larger-than-life money-making opportunities will suddenly be available to you!
