The
Sun and Neptune are conjunct at 5 degrees Pisces at 1:11 pm Sunday.
As I was saying in last week's column, perhaps you ought to let
someone else drive; it is way too easy for you to get confused and
lost today. To put it another way, you probably couldn't find your
way out of a paper bag. It is a good day for shooting yourself in the
foot, literally or metaphorically, so leave new matters for another
time. In some ways it can be an expression of the anxious or confused
energies around you, which you have absorbed like a psychic sponge.
It may be good to reinforce a kind of protective blue aura around
yourself.
Venus
at 23 degrees Capricorn sextiles Saturn in Scorpio at 11:50 pm
Monday.
One interpretation is “kind advice” – which to me is the best
type of advice to give. If one of the planets is in a money house, it
may bring an opportunity to earn what you need. If one of the planets
is in a career house, it can help you schmooze with the movers and
shakers in your corner of the world.
Jupiter
at 10 Cancer squares Uranus in Aries at 2:33 am Wednesday.
This aspect is basically generational but can be quite disruptive in
one's personal chart. You may feel like you are on a roller-coaster
ride. You may feel like you were “born to be wild” while at the
same time reporting as usual to a button-down job. You may burn a
bridge or two, hopeful that you can now journey to a land where the
grass is really greener.
Mercury
makes its Direct Station at 18 degrees 10' Aquarius at exactly 9 am
Friday.
Yeah, I can see you breaking out the confetti and balloons. I hope
you have taken the opportunity to clear the air (since it occurs in
air sign Aquarius) and put communications on a solid footing, with
all parties on the same page. If you have Mercury retrograde in your
natal chart, you may have enjoyed a vacation from miscommunications
or internal chatter.
The
Sun at 10 degrees Pisces trines Jupiter in Cancer at 11:05 pm Friday.
Luck can land in your lap under this transit, or maybe you are
king/queen for a day. Try not to be too haughty! Travel is generally
favored since you are optimistic and open-minded, ready to make
friends wherever you go. It is a good day for visualizing a better
life in every way. I must add, however, that sometimes a Jupiter
transit contacting your personal planets is more protective than
lucky, although given the current economic realities, protection of
your main source of income is very lucky indeed.
Mars
makes a Retrograde Station at 23 degrees 32' Libra at 11:24 am
Saturday.
Just as Mercury gives us a chance to correct erroneous thinking, Mars
retrograde gives us a chance to change bad health habits, possibly
because you are forced to by some health wake-up call. If this is
close to natal planets, your energy may be low, so make sure to get
enough rest. You may have difficulty with sports, competition in
general, or with expressing anger or standing up for yourself. On the
plus side, it is easier to count ten before responding with
inappropriate anger. On the minus side, you may let resentments
fester until you explode later; to fester is BAD, do not fester.
Depleted physical energy can make it harder to heal, slower to
recover from ordinary infections, fevers, injuries. You may find it
helpful during this time (and for the long term) to take up some yoga
exercises, if only some breathing exercises, to help your body
recharge its battery.

Readers
can follow not only their Sun sign horoscope but also their Ascendant
for further clues to how your week will develop. NOTE: some aspects
are exact on a weekend but may find opportunity for expression on the
Friday or Monday nearest the exact aspect. Times given are in Eastern
Standard or Eastern Daylight Savings Time depending on the season.
ARIES
- March 20-April 19 – Monday night is definitely a time to
schmooze with the higher-ups at the company. On Wednesday Uranus in
your sign squares Jupiter, when the roller-coaster ride you have been
on these past several months takes a spin and a jerk. The Mercury
station occurs in your solar eleventh house Friday morning; make sure
that friends are clear on who is meeting whom and where and what. A
profitable role with a family business may fall into your lap Friday
night; get all the details before deciding.
TAURUS
- April 20-May 20 - The Mercury station occurs in your solar
tenth house Friday morning; check with the boss that his memo says
what he meant it to say. Your guardian angel may prevent a traffic
accident Friday night, but buckle up anyway. The Mars retrograde on
Saturday affects your health sector; you may need to rest more, or
find a regimen that helps charge up your inner battery. Ceres enters
your solar seventh house of partners, where a quiet and mutual
nurturing strengthens the bond between you.
GEMINI
- May 21-June 20 – Geminis are generally unhappy while their
ruler Mercury is retrograde, so the Direct Station is probably a
federal holiday as far as you are concerned. Undoubtedly you will
pick up where you left off, in mid-sentence while conversing with
Aunt Jane... Career matters look confused for the long-term, unless
you are working for a non-profit or humanitarian concern. You discuss
your needs with a romantic partner, possibly with the help of a
counselor.
CANCER
- June 21-July 22 – Mars goes retrograde in your fourth
house on Saturday; there may be problems with the heating system or
with a stove, so have the phone numbers of repairmen handy. Shakeups
in the career sector may affect you very personally, as Uranus
squares Jupiter; you may wonder if the grass is greener elsewhere.
Ceres enters your solar fifth house, spurring you to spend time
outdoors or bring the outdoors inside. Ceres in your fifth house also
can coincide with the adoption of a child, either of the two-legged
or the four-legged-and-furry variety.
LEO
- July 23-Aug. 22 – Mercury goes direct Friday in your house
of partners, so take the opportunity to get on the same page again
with your mate, as you synchronize your watches. Mars goes retrograde
in your solar third house Saturday, where you lack the energy to make
the rounds of daily errands and meetings; get copies of the meeting
minutes, and do as much as possible via email and fax. NOTE: Pallas
is about to retrograde back into your sign, so be prepared to finesse
every situation and know instinctively how to approach others in a
way that instills confidence in you.
VIRGO
- Aug. 23-Sept. 22 – Pallas is still in your sign tho
retrograding back into Leo in March, so if you need to wrap up any
consulting jobs please do so promptly. If you are having problems
with a newish partner, possibly someone who is not completely honest
with you, be aware that this is a long-term situation and not
something that is going away soon; do not sign over any power of
attorney or similar legal powers. On the plus side, Ceres has entered
your solar second house of finances and that should help you to grow
your bank account. But right now Mars goes retrograde in your money
house, where you are hit by fees, commissions or taxes; demand a full
quote before signing papers with contractors.
LIBRA
- Sept. 23-Oct. 22 – A family member may help you find a way
to earn some extra money Monday. Vesta is almost conjunct Mars in
your sign and next week it will go retrograde, retracing its steps,
and therefore will not leave your sign until the beginning of August.
Vesta with Mars this week should spur you to find an outlet for your
physical energies; since Libra is a natural dancer, that might be
your ticket to fitness. Vesta in Libra tends to sacrifice itself for
the sake of the partner, and your lesson is to learn to state your
own needs in a loving way.
SCORPIO
- Oct. 23-Nov. 21 – Definitely schmooze with the higher-ups
at the company you work at (or wish to work at) mid-week. The Mercury
station occurs in your solar fourth house Friday morning; check out a
company's reputation before signing contracts for repairs. Mars goes
retrograde Saturday in your solar twelfth house, when you want to
recharge your batteries at the retreat or a rustic cabin hideaway.
Ceres enters your sign and gives you a certain spartan yet classic
quality to your style, also making you more dedicated to creating a
house beautiful.
SAGITTARIUS
- Nov. 22-Dec. 21 – The Moon is in Sag from Sunday till
Monday morn. On Sunday you may have an opportunity to play the
gallant knight by assisting some poor stranded traveler. You put
something extra into your early morning jog Monday. The Mercury
station occurs in your solar third house Friday morning; think before
putting mouth in gear. Mars goes retrograde in your solar eleventh
house of groups; you may feel like your friends drain your energy,
and need to get away to the mountains and wilderness to recharge.
CAPRICORN
- Dec. 22-Jan. 19 – The Moon is in Capricorn from 8:50 am
Monday till Wednesday morn. It is easy to fall in love with your mate
all over again Monday night. Monday ends with dispensing or receiving
some kind advice. You are in Power Mode Tuesday morning. On Wednesday
morning it is too easy to zip thru a task only to find that it has to
be redone. The Mercury station occurs in your solar second house
Friday morning; check your bank balance before writing just one more
check.
AQUARIUS
- Jan. 20-Feb. 17 – The Moon is in Aquarius from 9:55 am
Wednesday till Friday morn. You talk out your feelings at the
breakfast table Thursday. Schedule uninterrupted work time for midday
Thursday. Early risers Friday can ride out the day on a burst of
energy, although the Mercury station in your sign that morning calls
for some caution and safety awareness. Ceres enters your solar tenth
house of career, and makes you a good administrator. Mars goes
retrograde in your solar ninth house, and legal matters may be
delayed or put on hold.
PISCES
- Feb. 18-March 19 – The Moon is in Pisces from 9:53 am
Friday till mid-morning next Sunday, March 2. The Mercury station
occurs in your solar twelfth house Friday morning; it is very easy to
shoot yourself in the foot, so think before speaking. Your feelings
are apt to be very confused Friday night. On Saturday you awaken
convinced that you can accomplish anything that day. You may enjoy a
heart-to-heart chat late Saturday. Juno in your sign is inconjunct
Vesta and Mars in Libra; you may clash with your partner over sexual
issues and this ought to get resolved with the help of some couples
counseling.
