The Sun

Solar activity reached moderate levels. Region 3435 (N09E29, Dki/beta-delta) exhibited slight decay in the southern portion of its penumbra, and produced the strongest flare of the period; an impulsive M8.2/2b (R2-Moderate) at 20/1419 UTC. Associated with the event was a Type II radio sweep (est. 1054 km/s) and subsequent CME signature, first seen in SOHO LASCO C2 imagery at 20/1505 UTC. Analysis and modeling of the event is ongoing, but initial indications suggest most of the ejecta was too far south to impact Earth.

The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently above average, making retrograde effects moderately increased.

Solar wind parameters reflected the gradual transition of influence from a passing CME to near background conditions by the end of the period. Total magnetic field strength decreased from a peak of 10 nT to below 5 nT by the periods end. No significant periods of southward Bz were observed. Solar wind speeds gradually declined from ~550 km/s to ~450 km/s at the end of the day.

There is a 25% chance of solar activity, with a 15% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.


The Moon

The waxing moon is currently in Sagittarius, at 08 degrees, 47' 58", at a velocity of 13.12 degrees per day.

The First Quarter moon is currently 5.8 days old. It is 379432.56 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 17:55:08, 14 Oct, 2023. The next full moon is at 20:24:27, 28 Oct, 2023.

Moon Is In Sagittarius

Greetings, celestial explorers! I hope you've got your cosmic passports ready because it's time for a little galactic gallivanting. You see, our lovely Luna has taken residence in the boisterous borough of Sagittarius. Now, don't panic, she's still exactly 384,627.381443415km away (give or take a few meters, because let's be honest, space is not a fan of fixed measurements). Now, Sagittarius, as you might know, is the centaur of the zodiac, half man, half horse, all party. They're the adventurers, the philosophers, and the carefree wanderers. So with the Moon hanging out there, it’s like having your subconscious hitch a ride on the back of a wild, cosmic stallion. You might find yourself yearning for adventure, craving knowledge, or just feeling a tad more whimsical than usual. Honestly, who needs to binge-watch sci-fi series when you can live one, right? Keep in mind though, while Sagittarius loves a good laugh, sometimes they don't know when to rein it in (pun completely intended). So, if you find yourself about to send that joke email to your boss, maybe think twice. Or don’t. After all, who wouldn’t appreciate a good neutron walks into a bar joke at 8 am, right? Also, remember Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the big guy of the solar system, the grand poobah of planets. So, everything tends to get amplified. Thoughts, feelings, questionable decisions involving karaoke... Just remember, what happens in the cosmos, doesn't always stay in the cosmos. So, strap on your moon boots, folks. It's time to embrace the wisdom-filled winds of Sagittarius, dance with the daring dreams of our lunar landscape, and perhaps take a leap into the unknown. Just remember to calculate the gravity before you jump - wouldn't want to end up floating aimlessly now, would we? Until next time, keep looking up! Peace, love, and quasars.

Mercury is prograde at 10 Vir 16' 33", moving at 0.82 degrees per day, and is 136389211km away and receding.

Mercury Is In Virgo

Mercury Hokey Pokeys into Virgo

Alright, star gazers, gather round. Mercury, the cosmic mailman, has just skydived into Virgo, the universe's own neurotic librarian. Now, I don't want to alarm anyone, but you might want to double-check your emails and texts for typos. Why? Because with Mercury in Virgo, we're all going to be a little more Sherlock Holmes-y and a lot less...well, chill.

Virgo is like that friend who can't help but correct you when you say "less" instead of "fewer." And Mercury, our communication guru, is currently bunking with them. So, expect your brain to be on overdrive, sifting through info like it's trying to find the secret to cold fusion in a haystack of data.

But hey, it's not all grammar lessons and fact-checking. This is prime time to get stuff done. Think of it as celestial spring cleaning. You'll be decluttering your life of all those pesky extraneous details faster than you can say "quantum physics."

However, beware of morphing into a cosmic killjoy. With Mercury moonwalking through Virgo, we might get so caught up in the minutiae that we forget about the big picture. So, before you critique your buddy's use of emojis or go all 'Dr. Sheldon Cooper' on someone, remember that not everyone is currently under the influence of the cosmos' most OCD sign.

So take a deep breath, put on your nerdy glasses, and prepare to delve into the details. Just remember, the universe doesn't always operate on straight lines and perfect grammar. Sometimes, it's more about the journey than getting the facts straight. Now, where did I put my calculator...

Galactic Love Alert: Venus in Leo

Fasten your asteroid belts, space cadets! Our cosmic sweetheart, Venus, has just danced into the fiery embrace of Leo, the zodiacal drama queen. Yes, you heard it right! The planet of love is now hosting a flamboyant celestial soiree with Leo, the most expressive sign in our astrological theatre. Think of it as a cosmic Broadway show where love is the main act, and we're all stars in the making.

During this interstellar waltz, we don't just crave appreciation or a friendly pat on the back. Oh no, my dear stargazers! We desire to be adored. It's a time for grand romantic gestures that would make even a Vulcan blush. So, if you've been hiding in your shell like a shy Cancerian crab, it may be time to step out and bask in the limelight. Beware though, wallflowers may find themselves lost in the cosmic dust!

Now, let's talk about the "drama" side of Leo. Picture a cosmic telenovela with Venus in the lead role. Things might get intense, and yes, there might even be some cosmic catfights. If you're not feeling the love or attention you think you deserve, you might be tempted to fire off a supernova-sized tantrum. Remember, there's no "i" in "we", but there is one in "extraterrestrial". So let's not let our interplanetary ego trips turn us into lonely Martians, shall we?

As for the matter of money, with Venus in Leo, it's all about living that luxe life. Expect to splurge on glittery trinkets that sparkle brighter than a star cluster. But remember, Leo is a generous sign. So, don't just treat yourself to that fancy flying saucer, get one for your loved ones too! There's no joy quite like seeing the twinkle in their eyes that outshines even the brightest constellations.

So, dear stargazers, Venus in Leo is all about breathing new life into relationships, embracing the fun and excitement, and letting your love shine brighter than a supernova. After all, what is life without a little cosmic drama? As they say, "In space, no one can hear you scream... unless you're a Leo in

Pluto

Mars

Mars is in Libra

Mars is prograde at 16 Lib 03' 09", moving at 0.66 degrees per day, and is 378434992km away and receding.

Mars Is In Libra

Alright folks, buckle up, because our celestial buddy Mars has decided to crash the Libra party! Now, I'm not sure if you've met Mars before - he's a bit of a headstrong fellow, always barreling ahead full steam. Libra on the other hand - well, let's just say she likes to take her sweet time, like a sloth on a Sunday. So, what happens when you put a fiery planet in an airy sign? Think of it like tossing a hot potato into a feather pillow factory. It’s not the usual combo, but there’s a certain charm to it. While Mars is in Libra, relationships are going to be front and center. You'll be as aware of your interpersonal dynamics as a cat is aware of a laser pointer. But don't worry, no need to sharpen your claws just yet. We're going for balance here, not battles. Mars is swapping his usual aggressive attitude for a bit of Libra's diplomatic charm. Now, I know what you're thinking - with all this peacekeeping, surely we're just sweeping problems under the cosmic rug, right? Wrong! As much as we'd like to pretend everything's as fine and dandy as a unicorn on a rainbow, that's not exactly the case. This isn’t about avoiding conflict, but handling any issues with the grace of a ballerina on ice - sliding over tricky subjects with care and tact, aiming for long-lasting solutions rather than quick-fix band aids. And let's not forget, Libra is the sign of justice, so while Mars is visiting, it's a prime time to stand up for what's fair and square. Equality is the name of the game, and even if Libra usually prefers calm waters, she's not afraid to make some waves for the right cause. The only downside? Mars' impatience and Libra's indecisiveness might leave you feeling a bit like a hamster on a wheel, running in circles but not getting anywhere. But remember folks, it's not about rushing the journey, it's about making sure each step is taken with good intention. So take a leaf from Libra's book and take it slow, make sure your actions are filled with love, intention and above all, fairness. So, grab your cosmic surfboards and ride the wave of Mars in Libra. It might be a bumpy ride but hey, that's what makes it an adventure! Happy stargazing!

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is retrograde at 15 Tau 07' 01", moving backwards at 0.06 degrees per day, and is 632766221km away and approaching.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Shuttle Up: Jupiter in Taurus

Alright folks, listen up! Jupiter, the planet of wisdom and extra large pizzas (just kidding, but wouldn't that be out of this world?), is hanging out in Taurus. Now, Taurus is basically the universe's favorite couch potato. So, what happens when you mix a smarty-pants planet with the zodiac's top sloth? You get a cosmic wake-up call, reminding us that we've got all the answers we need, right here in our noggin.

It's kind of like that remote you lost in the couch cushions. You know it's in there somewhere, but you've got to push past the popcorn kernels and mystery lint to find it. When Jupiter is in Taurus, it's our chance to dig deep and dust off our inner wisdom, which has probably been Netflixing it up in the recesses of our brains.

But wait, there’s more! Jupiter in Taurus is like a cosmic caffeine boost, energizing you to chase your dreams. It's time to write down your grand plans, whether it's building a model of the solar system out of cheese or finally starting that blog about alien fashion trends. With Jupiter's ambition and Taurus’ stubbornness on your side, you're set to conquer the galaxy (or at least your to-do list).

Now, let's talk money. Jupiter is the planet of good fortune (think winning a lifetime supply of astronaut ice cream), and Taurus is the Wall Street of the zodiac. When these two team up, you've got a golden ticket to Prosperity Town.

But remember, Taurus loves the good life (who doesn't?) and can sometimes overindulge. When Jupiter, the planet of expansion, enters Taurus, the sign of "I want it all," we might have a cosmic case of the "gimmes." Just remember to keep your space boots on the ground and don’t go impulse buying a spaceship just because it has heated seats.

So there you have it, cosmic travelers. Jupiter in Taurus is your chance to wise up, buckle down, and maybe even hit the jackpot. Just watch out for those extraterrestrial spending sprees!

Saturn is retrograde at 02 Pis 02' 51", moving backwards at 0.06 degrees per day, and is 1324546377km away and receding.

Saturn Is In Pisces

Saturn in Pisces: A Galactic Hitchhiker's Guide

Alright, star gazers, buckle up! Our cosmic buddy, Saturn - yes, the one with the fancy rings - has taken a detour and set up camp in the dreamy realm of Pisces. Now, I know what you’re thinking: "Saturn in Pisces? That's like Han Solo attending a poetry reading!" But hear me out, this isn't just some random space shuffle. This is the universe's way of telling us to dive deep into our dreams and aspirations, sort of like a celestial life coach.

Now, let's get nerdy for a moment. Sure, Saturn is a whopping 1,324,508,816.59 kilometers away - or about 823,683,349.52 miles for those still clinging on to the imperial system - but don't let the distance intimidate you. It's retrograde time, baby! So grab a notepad and prepare to brainstorm because we're about to get a cosmic crash course in dream realization. Yep, it's time to dust off that idea of opening a cat café or writing the next great sci-fi trilogy.

However, don’t expect Saturn in Pisces to be as smooth as a Millennium Falcon ride. It's more like trying to navigate an asteroid field. You see, Saturn is kind of like the galaxy's strict dad - always bursting into your room to give unsolicited advice, even if you’ve hung up a million "Do Not Disturb" signs. It might unsettle you at first, but remember, this grumpy old planet means well. His advice is like Yoda's wisdom - cryptic, but golden when you finally understand it.

And speaking of understanding, this is also the perfect time to work on your inner Zen. Since Pisces is the guru of sleep and dreams, you might experience some cosmic insomnia. So, take a stroll in your local Ewok forest, meditate by your favorite droid, or just take a good old-fashioned nap. Just make sure to keep a dream journal by your side, because who knows, you might wake up with a plan for a new hyperdrive.

So, brave stargazers, while Saturn may be far, far away, its influence is right here, nudging us to realize our dreamy aspirations. And remember, even in hyperspace, take time to slow

Pluto

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 22 Tau 51' 17", moving backwards at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 2847425914km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Well, well, well, grab your lightsabers, dear star gazers, because it looks like our friendly neighborhood rebel, Uranus, has decided to park itself in the steadfast realm of Taurus. Now, I can almost hear the collective gasp echoing across the galaxy, and rightfully so! This is like inviting a Klingon to a Jedi Council meeting - utterly unexpected and bound to shake things up! Taurus, bless its earthy heart, loves consistency and predictability, it's like that friend who always orders the same thing at the cantina, regardless of the specials. But Uranus? It's the cosmic equivalent of "Hold my beer!" It thrives on sudden change and innovation, essentially the Yoda of our solar system, always pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo. Now, Taurus being the Wall Street of the zodiac, with its fingers firmly on the pulse of finances and material possessions, we could be looking at some revolutionary changes in the way we handle our Galactic Credits. Could we be seeing the emergence of new forms of currency? Perhaps Bitcoin will be replaced by Wookieecoin? Banks might undergo a transformation worthy of a cybernetic organism (terminators, anyone?) and don't get me started on the housing and stock markets – they're in for a rollercoaster ride faster than the Millennium Falcon on hyperdrive! On a personal level, it's time to Jedi mind trick ourselves out of the financial shackles that bind us. Debts, taxes, credit card interests, rent, mortgages - basically all the Sith Lords of our financial universe need to be dealt with. And don't cling onto those material possessions like Gollum to his precious. Uranus is here to liberate us, not unlike a certain farm boy from Tatooine. Resisting these changes would be as futile as trying to convince Vader to switch to the light side. Instead, embrace them, and you might just find that these changes lead to a stability more profound than Yoda's wisdom. Remember, "The greatest teacher, failure is." So don't fear the shake-up, because as we all know, the Force will be with you... always.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 26 Pis 13' 19", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4323803583km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Well, buckle up, star gazers, because Neptune has decided to throw a cosmic pool party and we're all invited! Currently, Neptune is doing the backstroke in its favorite astrological sign, Pisces. Now, Neptune is about as far from us as your Aunt Marge's fruitcake recipe is from being edible - about 4.3 billion kilometers, give or take a few hundred million. You might be thinking, "but what does it all mean?" Well, let me break it down for you. Neptune in Pisces is like having Bob Ross gently whispering in your ear that there are no mistakes, just happy accidents. It's an ethereal post-it note reminding us to focus less on the number of likes on our latest selfie and more on the bigger picture. It's a time when we can only see the forest for the trees if we remember to put our glasses on. With Neptune in Pisces, we suddenly realize that arguing over the last slice of pizza or whether Star Trek or Star Wars is the better franchise (it's Star Trek, by the way), is as pointless as a broken pencil. This cosmic combo is like a spiritual alarm clock, nudging us to wake up and smell the cosmic coffee. It's an invitation to tap into those deep, buried dreams we've been stashing away like hidden treasures. Whether that's learning to channel your inner Zen master, or finally creating that home office shrine to the Beatles. Remember folks, this is the perfect time to get in touch with your inner Jedi and use the force to make the world a better place. So, let's grab our pool noodles and dive right into this celestial swimming pool! Neptune in Pisces will be our lifeguard on duty, ready to support us as we navigate the deep end.

Pluto In Capricorn: A Galactic Hitchhiker's Guide to the Cosmic Conga Line

Alright, my celestial wanderers, grab your towel and don't panic. It's another day in the cosmos and our maverick Pluto—often mistaken for a mere dwarf planet—is currently shaking its cosmic maracas in the realm of Capricorn. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Pluto is retrograde, it's 5137512103.015439987km away, and I'm still trying to locate my socks!" Well, fellow space hitchhikers, let's get down to the nitty-gritty.

Think of Capricorn as a stern but fair cosmic manager, always eyeing the bottom line. Combine that with Pluto, the celestial embodiment of a radical life coach who isn’t afraid to use a sledgehammer to make you confront your deeply rooted fears, and you've got quite the cosmic cocktail. You might feel like the universe has suddenly forgotten how to be polite. It’s not that it’s being rude, it’s just...busy. Busy making you a better version of yourself (whether you asked for it or not).

And yes, you may find yourself temporarily less tolerant of other people's ideas. It's as if your brain has become a one-way street where only your thoughts are allowed to park. This can be a bit like trying to navigate the Improbability Drive during rush hour. Remember, though, it's all part of the process. The key is to use this transit to clear out the cosmic clutter, not add to it.

So, what does this mean for you? Well, it's a bit like the universe has handed you a celestial sledgehammer and said, "Go on, break those old habits. Smash them into stardust!" This is your chance to jettison those negative patterns and replace them with shinier, more efficient ones. But remember, like any good hitchhiker, be sure you know exactly what you're getting rid of before you toss it into the cosmic bin.

So, buckle up, space adventurers. The universe is always in flux, and right now, it's dancing to the tune of Pluto in Capricorn. It might not be the smoothest ride, but hey, at least it isn’t Vogon poetry!

Confusion, uncertainty, and delusions of grandeur characterize this transit. Be alert for deception. Avoid becoming the martyr today just because your self-confidence may be low. Don't buy into every sob story that comes your way and don't play the "poor, poor pitiful me" game. Be careful with contracts. In general, be prepared for any kind of possible misunderstanding.Those people born under a challenging aspect between the Sun and Neptune often struggle with a desire to be something special or to experience something more than the ordinary. They are day-dreamers and idealists. It is easy for these people to trust others, even (and perhaps especially) people who might seem from the outside looking in as unsavory types. They are looking to identify with something beyond what is normally expected of people.Most have in common a childhood that didn’t help the natives direct or define their lives. Perhaps the early family life was lacking in supervision or clearly defined rules. A father figure may have been absent or distant and ineffective. Many people with these aspects have a glorified image of their fathers. Whether the image is very positive or very negative (or if it swings between these extremes), the image is not very clear or rational. Whatever the case may be, these people struggle with defining who they are. They might gravitate towards the “wrong people”, or get in with the “wrong crowd” in an attempt to define who they are. They might be susceptible to being taken advantage of by others, especially by men or authority figures. They can be easily led astray by peculiar desires or self-destructive habits. In order to add a greater-than-ordinary dimension of experience to their lives that helps them to feel special and important, they might be attracted to Neptune-ruled behaviors, such as secret affairs, drugs, or other escapist behaviors. In some way, these people feel a strong urge to glamorize their role in the world. In extreme cases, the natives are completely deluded. However, in most cases, there is simply some confusion about the past (such as remembering childhood experiences in ways that are far removed from reality), and a tendency to daydream about being someone more “important” than they assume they are. They may struggle with early conditioning that made them feel tossed aside or neglected in some way, and certainly not directed and supported.These people are very sensitive, especially with regards to any real or imagined blows to their ego. If the natal chart shows a strong sense of reality and a robust mind (Mercury and Saturn well-placed, for example), the negative interpretations of this aspect are less extreme. Still, the natives are likely to recognize at some point in their lives that they have a tendency to engage in escapist and self-destructive fantasies and/or habits. It is useful to be able to connect these behaviors with their probable source, which is likely to be a weakly-defined ego and identity in childhood.Some Famous People with Sun in Hard Aspect to Neptune: Squares – Anjelica Huston, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Costner, Cameron Diaz; Oppositions – Sheena Easton.

Sun Trine Pluto

You can make important changes in your life and in yourself today. The force of your will and the perception to see what needs changing combine to give you the ability to do whatever is required. Regeneration is possible in any area of your life. Change that bad habit, eliminate what is unnecessary or outmoded. You have the force with you today. Group activities can be especially rewarding today as you can help make the groups' goals a reality. People in authority are receptive to changes today. Lay that new idea on them.It is easy and natural for those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto to find a passion and pursue it, and to focus on a goal. These people are not much scared of anything. They enjoy and embrace growth, especially of the psychological kind. They love a good mystery, and they are adept at solving it. Many people with these aspects feel they have a “calling” or destiny. They readily assign meaning to what others might consider “ordinary” events. They look for symbols, and read between the lines in most any situation. The physical vitality is generally strong, and the body is usually able to heal quickly.Others tend to respect those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto. They are not afraid to get their hands dirty, and they are usually quick to help others–not only with mundane tasks, but also on a spiritual or psychological level. Their insight is sharp and sometimes awe-inspiring. These are perceptive people who are not easily rattled or surprised in life. They are not do-gooders, and they are unlikely law-breakers. However, they are not afraid of the “dark side” of human nature, and they will bend the rules from time to time if they feel the need to do so. Many take particular pleasure in growth and life’s lessons. They are not fond of superficiality, and are generally the first to spot pretense of any kind. Some experiment with their powers to deceive at some early point in their lives, but generally grow in their strength and integrity. In fact, many do their best to rid themselves of any self-delusion that we are all susceptible to at times. These people are passionate and can be intense. They have a hunger to experience more than just an “ordinary” life, and they can be quite ambitious. Some are perfectionists, demanding much from themselves and reasonable amounts of effort and honesty from others.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon the talents of this aspect when necessary, and those with the trine have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Famous People with Sun in easy aspect to Pluto: Sextiles – Christina Aguilera, Lisa Bonet, Bob Dylan; Trines – Ed Asner, James Caan, Nicolas Cage, Michael Caine, Susan Dey, Sam Donaldson, Chris Evert, Bette Midler.Note from Annie: I have perhaps used more words to describe Sun-Pluto aspects than I have with other planetary aspects. This is because I grew up with astrology books that offered rather dire and extreme descriptions of the aspects. Because of this, I had problems identifying with the interpretations of my own Sun conjunction Pluto as being “power-hungry”, “dominating”, and “controlling”. Some descriptions suggested an attraction to crime. Except in extreme cases, Sun-Pluto people are not extremists hell-bent on destroying or dominating everyone around them. However, they do need to come to terms with their “dark side”, their intense fears, and their tendency to be very self-protective. A more humane and psychological approach to defining the aspects can be found in many modern astrology books, and I think it is very beneficial, especially since one of the main challenges to overcome with Sun-Pluto is for the rational ruler of light (the Sun) to identify with the energies of the ruler of dark (Pluto). Nobody benefits if descriptions of the aspects are so extreme that they are quickly dismissed as “wrong”.

Venus Sextile Mars

Harmony in social activities is highlighted today. Activities with the opposite sex are enjoyable and rewarding. Romance is in your blood. Show someone you care for them. They will appreciate your sharing your feelings. Clean your house and do that redecorating you had planned. Make your surroundings more beautiful.It is easy for these people to attract attention of the positive kind. They radiate charm, vitality, and enthusiasm on some level that others appreciate. Not inclined to try to cover up their flaws, these people have a way of presenting themselves in a straightforward manner, and their ability to admit their mistakes and their fumbles only adds to their charm. They find it easy and natural to get along with both sexes quite equally. They possess considerable creative talent, but whether or not they use it is dependent on other factors. They may take their own talents for granted and often need some kind of stimulus or encouragement to do something with them. One of the reasons for this is the fact that their creativity comes so naturally to them that they may be surprised when others recognize their talents. Similarly, they usually possess athletic ability and may need some encouragement to develop it.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon these traits when needed, and those with the trine between the Venus and Mars have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Interpretation sample from the Karmic Insight report — Actively creating harmony and beauty through your work, art, or with people is part of what you are here to do. You have developed a harmonious coordination between the masculine and feminine energies within yourself; thus, you combine strength with grace, power with elegance, decisiveness and effort with pleasure, passion with tenderness and sensitivity. You have a romantic soul.Some positive expressions of this pattern might include athletic activities that have an aesthetic appeal, such as figure skating, or artistic endeavors that are active, such as performing dance or opera singing.Actively bringing people together in some way, for mutual pleasure and benefits, is also one of your gifts.Some Famous People with Venus in Harmonious Aspect to Mars: Sextiles – Pamela Anderson, Shannen Doherty, Ian Thorpe, Harry Belafonte, Kirk Cameron, Francis Ford Coppola, Jane Curtin, Matt Damon, Robert DeNiro, Harrison Ford, Erich Fromm, Crispin Glover, Elliott Gould, Amy Jo Johnson, Bob Newhart, Molly Ringwald, Robin Williams; Trines – Melissa Anderson, Jason Bateman, Pierre Cardin, Natalie Cole, John Coltrane, Mick Jagger, Ann Jillian, Billie Jean King, Marilyn Manson, Joe Montana, Bonnie Raitt, Eva Mendes, Britney Spears.

Venus Square Jupiter

You will probably overindulge yourself today, with regrets later. This is true both with eating and spending. A distinct laziness may overcome you and you will want to be pampered. Self-discipline is needed in order to avoid trouble now or later. Others may think you are too spoiled. Don't procrastinate.These people are big-hearted and warm, with open hearts and a tendency to want to give a lot to the people they love. They can have some problems with following through on their promises, however–not because of any ill intent, but because they sometimes overestimate their personal capabilities, and want to do more, and give more, than is actually possible. At distinct times in their lives, they have a tendency to live beyond their means. They need to be cautious about the tendency to feel overly-optimistic or overly protected. Borrowing from their future and overdoing their indulgence in pleasures is a marked tendency. While people with the conjunction, sextile, or trine between Venus and Jupiter express their bigheartedness, tolerance, generosity, and magnanimity in a generally constant and natural manner, these same expressions for those people with the square, opposition, and quincunx between these planets tend to be problematic at times. Their need for growth, good humor, and fun in their relationships is marked, as is their disdain for insincerity. However, they may attract just those kinds of people simply because they are looking so hard for these traits that they assign them onto undeserving people!Moderation is the most important, and perhaps challenging, lesson in these people’s lives.Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report — Your sense of form and harmony extend into the important relationships of your life. You seek a strong philosophical connection to match the physical passion.

Notes about Transits

Mars is all about action, and where Mars is in our chart with transits is a place where we are prepared to stand our ground. Mars transits can be really productive, but they can also be angsty, aggressive, and sometimes come from a place of anger. It's important to pay attention to how you direct that energy. Mars transits can last for up to a couple weeks.
Jupiter transits enhance your life with optimism and forward-thinking, and lasting for about a month, give you plenty of time to take advantage. Bigger and better is Jupiter's way of thinking, and should be yours as well.
Saturn transits, on the other hand, are where we get a major reality check, and if we’re not ready for them, they can be pretty rotten. Of course, if we’re prepared and up to the task, Saturn transits can also bring very well-deserved rewards, too. Saturn transits last a bit longer than Jupiter transits—usually 2 months or so at a time, but with retrograde cycles, you could be looking at the same lessons three times over a 6 month period.
The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto last for such a long time that they make long-lasting impacts on our lives. In fact, Neptune and Pluto can last for two to three years! Consider their effects, plan accordingly, and make them part of your life for the better.
