Moon Is In Virgo

Alright, all you stargazers and cosmic enthusiasts, grab your telescopes and brace yourself for some monumental lunar shenanigans because the moon, our celestial nightlight, is currently chilling in Virgo. Now, Virgo is the astrological equivalent of that goody-two-shoes friend who color codes their planner, so expect some hardcore organization vibes flowing your way. The moon is precisely 403,971.035807438km away, not that any of us are packing our bags for a lunar vacation. But hey, it's always good to have options, right? And who knows? With the right rocket fuel and a few dozen astronaut ice cream packets, anything is possible! But don't get too comfy because in the next 24 hours, our moon buddy is packing up its lunar luggage and moving to Libra. It's like the universe's version of musical chairs, only with celestial bodies instead of flimsy plastic furniture. So, what does this all mean for you? Well, while the moon is still in Virgo, it's the perfect time to channel your inner Marie Kondo and do some decluttering. You might just find that pair of socks you lost in 2003 or perhaps, the meaning of life itself! Who knows? And once the moon struts into Libra, it's all about balance, baby! Maybe skip that third cup of coffee or actually go to bed at a reasonable hour. I know, I know – it's wild advice, but trust me, your body and mind will thank you later. Remember, folks, we're just tiny specks on a floating rock in the middle of cosmic infinity, so let's make the most of this celestial ballet. Happy stargazing!

Mercury

Mercury is in Virgo

Mercury Is In Virgo

Ahoy, stargazers! So, you've heard Mercury has decided to take a vacation in Virgo, have you now? Well, buckle up, because things are about to get as intense as a RoboCop chase scene! Now, Mercury in Virgo is like that one nerdy friend we all have who insists on organizing everything right down to the color of their socks. You know, the one who alphabetizes their spice rack and has a five-year plan for their Netflix binge list? With Mercury doing the planetary version of a Spring clean, our minds are going to be as sharp as a Vulcan's ears, and our speech as precise as a GPS navigation system. No more fluff, no more "umms" and "uhhs", it’s all 'cut the chatter, Red 2.' This transit doesn't sugar-coat anything. We're talking 100% pure, unfiltered cosmic truth! And let's talk about productivity. With Mercury in Virgo, we're going to be as efficient as a well-oiled android. You'll find yourself powered up and ready to take on any tasks, even those that were previously about as appealing as a date with a Dalek. But hold onto your lightsabers, because there's a dark side to this starry alignment. We might become as critical as a Star Trek fan at a Star Wars convention. It's important to remember that while discernment is a good thing, no one likes a nitpicker. Unless you want to be as popular as Jar Jar Binks at a Jedi gathering, try expressing your opinions with a little tact. So there you have it, folks! Let's boldly go into this Mercury in Virgo transit, ready to embrace the clarity, precision, and just a dash of nerdiness it brings. May the force be with us all!

Venus

Venus is in Leo

Venus is prograde at 14 Leo 29' 06", moving at 0.39 degrees per day, and is 61980809km away and receding.

Venus Is In Leo

Ahoy, fellow celestial voyagers! I've got some juicy astronomical gossip for you. It appears our darling Venus, the galactic goddess of love, has sauntered into the fiery realm of Leo! And as your trusty astrologer with a PhD in Star Drama, I can assure you that things are about to get steamy. Now, Leo, as we all know, isn't just a big cat with a great hairdo. Oh no, he's the king of the zodiac jungle, a fiery beast with a roar that echoes across the cosmos. So, when Venus, the queen of hearts herself, decides to pay him a visit? Well, let's just say it's like a cosmic episode of 'The Bachelor' – full of passion, drama, and more than a few grand gestures. What's that? You want some scientific facts sprinkled in for good measure? Well, aren't you in luck! As Venus orbits the sun, she's currently in a prograde motion, which is like her doing a little salsa dance around our star. At a comfortable distance of 61,935,605.438062772km away, she's not exactly in our backyard, but she sure is making her presence felt! So, what does all this mean for you? Well, under this cosmic influence, being simply liked or appreciated isn't going to cut it. It's time to roll out the red carpet and aim for adoration. But remember, my star-struck friends, Leo's love for drama can lead to the occasional roar of jealousy or tantrum. Be sure not to confuse love with a Shakespearean tragedy! And as for your wallet? Well, let’s just say it might feel a bit lighter. Leo’s penchant for the extravagant may encourage you to splurge on some glittery goodies. But remember, the real joy comes from sharing your wealth – Leo is the king of generosity after all! So, buckle up, folks! With Venus in Leo, we’re in for a love story that’s more epic than 'Star Wars,' more dramatic than 'Game of Thrones,' and has more grand gestures than a Broadway musical. It's time to turn up the heat, speak from the heart, and remember that life without a bit of fun and excitement is like a galaxy without stars!

Mars

Mars is in Libra

Mars is prograde at 12 Lib 06' 42", moving at 0.65 degrees per day, and is 376938514km away and receding.

Mars Is In Libra

Greetings, celestial surfers! Buckle up your asteroid belts because Mars has RSVP'd to Libra's cosmic tea party, and boy, is that going to stir the cosmic pot! First off, let me remind you that Mars in Libra is like inviting the Hulk to a poetry slam. Mars is our rowdy, hot-headed cosmic bro, who’s all about action, while Libra is that cool, artsy friend who just wants peace, man. They're like Spock and Kirk at a Starfleet conference. One’s all logic and reason; the other is ready to beam down to the next adventure. Get ready for some weird relationship vibes, folks. Mars is like Cupid on Red Bull here, making you hyper-aware of your relationships. It's like switching from standard definition to high definition - suddenly, you're noticing all the pixelated flaws and virtues you never saw before. You might start questioning if your love interest is more of a Wookiee than a Han Solo, but remember, nobody's perfect. Mars' typical "Hulk smash" approach gets replaced by Libra's diplomatic charm. So, instead of throwing photon torpedoes during arguments, you'll be inclined to negotiate like Picard. But beware! Too much passivity can lead to repressing feelings, and trust me, you don't want to turn into an emotional black hole. Remember, this time is all about diplomacy. It's like being equipped with the universal translator of emotions. Use it to address those difficult issues with grace and love, and create new peace treaties in your relationships. Libra, the celestial lawyer, will urge Mars to fight for justice and equality. It's like when Superman stands up for truth, justice, and the American way - but without the red undies, hopefully. However, indecision may creep in, like that annoying buffering symbol when you're trying to stream your favorite sci-fi series. Mars wants to go warp speed ahead, while Libra prefers a leisurely cruise on the USS Enterprise. But hey! If you're acting with love, intention, and fairness, you're on the right trajectory, space cadets. So, grab your lightsabers, adjust your tricorders, and may the Mars-in-Libra force be with you! Remember: in space, no one can hear you scream... unless it's with laughter.

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is retrograde at 15 Tau 23' 27", moving backwards at 0.04 degrees per day, and is 643175620km away and approaching.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Greetings cosmic travelers! Set phasers to fun, as we embark on an interstellar journey through the astrological cosmos. We're off to explore the far reaches of Taurus, where Jupiter—the big Kahuna of the Solar System—has parked his colossal cosmic caboose. As Captain Picard would say, "Engage!" Our jovial giant, Jupiter, is currently in Taurus. Now, this isn't your average planetary meet and greet. Picture Spock at a Starfleet party - it's going to get interesting. But remember, folks, resistance is futile! The combination of Jupiter, the galaxy's wisest and most philosophical planet, with Taurus, the zodiac's equivalent of a '90s basement-dwelling gamer who just can't be bothered to leave his comfy chair, is nothing short of a cosmic comic con. This pairing reminds us that wisdom isn't something to be found in the final frontier, but right here in our daily lives. With Jupiter in Taurus, you'll find yourself feeling like Captain Kirk on a mission. You're ready to conquer goals with the same determination you'd use to tackle a Klingon warrior. Remember, patience, like a good Starfleet crew, is key. Just think, what would Data do? And let's talk credits. With Jupiter, the celestial Santa Claus, in Taurus, the zodiac's millionaire, it might feel like you've discovered a new planet teeming with gold-pressed latinum. It's a great time to review your financial status, just be careful not to go full Ferengi! And finally, let's face it, Taurus loves the good life as much as Scotty loves a bottle of Romulan ale. With Jupiter, the planet of expansion, in the mix, you may find yourself indulging more than usual. Don't worry though, my cosmic comrades, just keep the Vulcan salute in mind: live long and prosper... but also, maybe put down that third piece of chocolate cake. So there you have it, space cadets! Jupiter in Taurus; a time for wisdom, patience, prosperity, and perhaps a little bit of self-control. After all, as Captain Picard might say, "Seize the time, Meribor. Live now; make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again." Until next time, may the celestial bodies always align in your favor.

Saturn

Saturn is in Pisces

Saturn is retrograde at 02 Pis 26' 46", moving backwards at 0.07 degrees per day, and is 1318794635km away and receding.

Saturn Is In Pisces

When Saturn Goes Skinny Dipping in Pisces

Alright, folks! It's time to tie-dye your spacesuits and don your geek-chic glasses because Saturn, the celestial stickler, has decided to take a cosmic cannonball into the dreamy ocean of Pisces. You may ask, "What does this mean for me?" Well, let's get our science on and find out, shall we? Now, imagine Saturn as your favorite strict school teacher who’s suddenly decided to trade his tweed jacket for a floral-printed Hawaiian shirt. This stern taskmaster is going through a bit of a midlife crisis, and it’s got him questioning everything, especially your daydreams. Yes, even that one about you opening a unicorn-themed café. So, what do you do when Saturn comes knocking, asking for your business plan and a detailed budget for unicorn-shaped cookies? Breathe. Grab a notepad. And prepare for a cosmic coaching session that would put Gordon Ramsay to shame. This is the time to be the nerd you truly are – analyze, strategize, and materialize those dreams. But remember, Saturn in Pisces isn't all sunshine and rainbow-colored unicorns. The big guy can be a bit intrusive, peppering you with questions about your dreams. If you feel like you're being interrogated by a cosmic Columbo, it's okay. Just keep calm, carry on, and perhaps make some herbal tea. The key is to open the door, invite Saturn in, and maybe offer him a slice of your imaginary unicorn cookie. His advice might just be the secret ingredient you need. And hey, if you're finding yourself tossing and turning at night, it’s not too surprising. Saturn in Pisces can shake up your dreamscape, making it feel like a sci-fi movie directed by Tim Burton. Don't panic. Instead, try some Piscean solutions like meditation, woodland walks, deep breathing, or even a cosmic catnap. Just make sure you've got that dream journal handy – you never know when a billion-dollar unicorn café idea might hit you! So, folks, as we journey through this Saturn in Pisces season, remember to stay open, stay calm, and above all, stay weird. Because, after all, the universe is a pretty strange place, and we wouldn't want it any other way.

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 22 Tau 57' 12", moving backwards at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 2860281591km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Alright, folks, gather 'round. Get your pocket protectors and your funky tie-dye t-shirts ready because it's time to talk about our old mate, Uranus, crashing into Taurus' backyard. Now, Taurus is a bit of a stick-in-the-mud, prefers their tea just so, and doesn't like when anyone moves their cheese. But here comes Uranus, the cosmic prankster, all set to shake things up! Now, picture Taurus as your grandpa who still uses a Nokia 3310 and thinks emails are a kind of exotic bird. Uranus is like that cheeky kid who keeps introducing grandpa to new gadgets, causing minor heart attacks but ultimately pushing him into the 21st century. In the world of finance - Taurus' favourite playground - we're looking at a universe-sized game of Monopoly. New forms of currency might pop up, like Schrödinger's Bitcoin, where it's both valuable and worthless until you check your account. Our banking systems might do the cha-cha-slide into oblivion or transform into something barely recognizable, like a Klingon in a tutu. Housing and stock markets? Get ready for a rollercoaster ride that'd make even the most seasoned astronaut queasy. On a personal level, Uranus in Taurus is a wake-up call to kick your money woes to the curb. Debts, taxes, credit card interests, rents, and mortgages – I mean, who needs 'em, right? It's like being stuck in a black hole of financial despair. But fear not! Uranus is here, like a cosmic superhero, ready to liberate us from the tyranny of materialism. So, buck up, fellow space travelers. Even if change feels like trying to solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded, remember: Uranus is not here to make life difficult. It's here to push us into a brave new world. A world where stability is not just a pipe dream, but a reality. So, hold onto your telescopes, and let's ride this cosmic wave together!

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 26 Pis 23' 16", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4323896569km away and approaching.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Alright, my star-gazing compadres, dust off your telescopes and don your favorite tin-foil hat because Neptune has pulled a sneaky on us and gone retrograde in Pisces. Now, I know what you're thinking: "But Mr. Astrologer, how does this affect my ability to binge-watch the latest sci-fi series?" Sit tight, because it's about to get real... spacey. Neptune in Pisces is like your quirky, eccentric, yet endearing aunt who insists on wearing her tie-dye shirts to family gatherings. She's a bit out there, sure, but she sees things differently, and frankly, we could all use a dose of that perspective now and then. This cosmic combo is like a galactic spotlight shining on our individual contradictions. Picture a universe-sized magnifying glass honing in on our petty squabbles and saying, "Really? This is what you're worried about when you're floating on a rock in infinite space?" It's a wake-up call, my fellow Earthlings, a reminder that we should be celebrating our shared humanity rather than emphasizing our differences. Now, don't panic and start selling all your possessions to join a commune just yet. This transit isn't about losing ourselves, but about finding how we fit into the grand cosmic jigsaw puzzle. We've each got a unique piece to contribute, whether it's your knack for creating sustainable energy out of potato peelings, or your uncanny ability to recall every single Star Trek episode in chronological order. Neptune in Pisces is knocking on your door, holding out an invitation to explore your spiritual side. Perhaps it's time to finally take that online course in astral projection you've been eyeing, or set up a shrine to Carl Sagan in your living room. Whatever floats your cosmic boat, my friends. But remember, this isn't just about personal growth. Neptune in Pisces is the ultimate cosmic wingman, encouraging us to share our newfound wisdom and insights. Because let's face it, we could all use a little more unity and understanding in our lives. So go forth, share your ideas, and remember - in the immortal words of the great Carl Sagan: "We are all made of star stuff." And who knows? Maybe this celestial shift will even improve your Netflix recommendations.

Pluto

Pluto is in Capricorn

Pluto is retrograde at 28 Cap 02' 44", moving backwards at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 5124006836km away and receding.

Pluto Is In Capricorn

Well, buckle up space cadets because it's time for some interstellar shenanigans! Pluto, that cheeky little dwarf planet, has decided to shimmy its way into Capricorn. Now, I know what you're thinking, "Didn't we demote Pluto?" Yes, yes we did. But just like that kid in high school who peaked too early, Pluto simply refuses to accept its new status and continues to influence our lives. So, here we are, staring at the cosmic equivalent of a planetary mid-life crisis. Pluto and Capricorn together are like the power couple of the galaxy; they've got their act together, they're ambitious, driven, and have a laser-like focus on success. It's like having Elon Musk and Oprah form a super team. So, you can expect some profound changes coming your way. But wait, there's a 'but'. These two celestial big shots aren't exactly known for their empathy. This means you might find yourself forgetting to take into account other people's feelings or ideas. It's like trying to debate the merits of Star Wars over Star Trek with a hardcore Trekkie. You've been warned, don't go full Darth Vader on your friends and family. On the bright side, Pluto is all about housecleaning. Not the fun kind with feather dusters and dancing broomsticks, but the kind where you clear out all the stuff that's no longer serving you. Old habits, toxic relationships, that collection of comic books you've been hoarding since the '90s... it's time for a spring cleaning. Be mindful though, destruction can be constructive, but only if done right. It's like using a lightsaber to make toast - sure, it works, but wouldn't a toaster be easier? So take a leaf out of Pluto's book and remember: change can be a good thing, but respect the process and don't become a cosmic bulldozer. So, whether you're a Capricorn or just feeling the effects of this planetary promenade, remember to keep your feet on the ground (or space station), your eyes on the stars, and maybe keep a spare lightsaber handy. Just in case.

The Sun

Sun Trine Uranus

Today is a good day to pour your creativity and self-expression into coming up with new ways of doing things. Positive surprises are likely today as your aura is ready for the new and unusual. By going off the beaten pathway, you may open up many possibilities for further spiritual and personal growth. You feel free today from all restrictions and you want to fly like the eagle, unbounded by any restraints. Soar high and don't limit yourself.

The Sun

Sun Opposite Neptune

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.

Venus

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

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. Faithfulness is a key factor if your relationship is to support your spiritual growth, and trust has to work both ways in the partnership.Some Famous People with the Venus in Hard Aspect to Jupiter: Squares – Jason Alexander, Pearl Buck, Julia Child, Joe Cocker, Sean Connery, Alice Cooper, Billy Corgan, e.e. Cummings, John Denver, Michael J. Fox, Andy Gibb, Linda Goodman, Jim Jones, Jessica Lange, David Lynch, Dolly Parton, Tom Paxton, Robert Redford, Lynn Redgrave, Oral Roberts, Maria Shriver, Britney Spears, Tina Turner, Jon Voight, Betty White; Oppositions – Drew Carey, Billy Ray Cyprus, Victor Hugo, Quincy Jones, Tom Selleck, Cat Stevens.
