The Sun

Solar activity was low. C-class flares were observed from Regions 3450 (S19W55, Axx/alpha), 3452 (N10W24, Esi/beta-gamma), and from an unnumbered region just beyond the NE limb near N23. The largest flare was a C4.2 at 06/1817 UT from that unnumbered region. Some separation was observed in Region 3451 (N16W20, Dai/beta-gamma). Slight growth was observed in Regions 3452, 3454 (S12W01, Bxo/beta), and 3459 (N08E60, Cro/beta). The rest of the spot groups were either stable or in decay.

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 were mildly enhanced during the period. Solar wind speed decreased from approximately 475 km/s to near 385 km/s. Total field ranged from 1-8 nT while the Bz component was between +/-7 nT. Phi angle was variable.

There is a 30% chance of solar activity, with a 30% chance of a minor event, a 10% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.

Moon Is In Cancer

Greetings, celestial voyagers! Buckle up your astro-belts because we're about to embark on a journey through the cosmic tides. If you've been feeling a little crabby lately, I've got a newsflash for you: the Moon is currently chillin' in the constellation of Cancer. That's right, it's soaking in some of that good ol' crustacean energy. And let me tell you, the Moon is having a shell of a time! Now, don't start fretting about your lunar love life just yet because the Moon isn't going steady with Cancer. It's more of a casual fling. Fun fact: the Moon is actually 400,389.824373019km away. Which, if my calculations are correct, is approximately the same distance as 400,389,824 Roj Blake action figures laid end to end. And believe me, that's a lot of sci-fi swag! But, here's where things get interesting. In the next 24 hours, our dear Moon is going to pack up its lunar luggage and make a dramatic exit from Cancer, moving on to the fiery realms of Leo. Talk about a plot twist! So, what does this mean for you, cosmic kiddos? Well, if you've been feeling as moody as a hermit crab in a too-small-shell, fear not! The Moon's move into Leo might just bring some drama, passion, and a renewed sense of confidence. So get ready to roar! Remember, in this vast universe, change is the only constant. So embrace the cosmic ebbs and flows, and remember, no matter where the Moon is hanging out, you're still a star! Until next time, happy stargazing!

Mercury Is In Libra

Mercury's Landed in Libra, Folks!

Alright all you star-gazers, buckle up because Mercury just parked its celestial self in the diplomatic driveway of Libra! This isn't some run-of-the-mill planet-enters-sign event – this is like if The Terminator decided to take a break from hunting Sarah Connor to join a debate club. Yes, it's that wild!

Mercury, our cosmic chatterbox, has decided to host its latest planetary soirée in Libra, the sign of balance and relationships. And I'm not just talking about romantic ones. Oh no, this involves your family, friends, coworkers and even that barista who sometimes remembers your name. If you've been replaying that argument from 2009 with your brother, or nursing a grudge against Susan from accounting, now's the time to bury the hatchet. Or at least agree on where to hide it.

When Mercury sashays into Libra's court, diplomacy becomes the star of the show. Libra, being the Scales of justice, urges us to don our objective thinking caps and approach situations with fairness and balance. Think of it as the universe gently nudging you with a stick saying, "Hey, think about others' perspectives, okay?" It's not just about compromise, but embracing the art of it. Like abstract art, where you squint and tilt your head a bit until it makes sense.

But be careful, folks! There's a teeny tiny catch here. In your quest to become the ultimate diplomat, you might end up being a little too nice. Yes, there is such a thing. Don't morph into a sugar-coated sweet talker or play hide-and-seek with crucial information just to keep the peace. Remember, being kind doesn't mean being a doormat. There are many ways to connect with someone, and mindless agreement isn't the only route. Try expressing opposing beliefs respectfully and openly. It's like relationship cardio - it might be exhausting, but it'll make your bond stronger in the long run.

And just remember, even The Terminator learned to say "Hasta la vista, baby." So, you too can find a way to express yourself effectively while Mercury is hanging out in Libra!

Venus in Leo: The Celestial Red Carpet Event

Fire up the rocket engines, my cosmic comrades, because Venus has just strutted into the limelight of Leo, the zodiac's diva. It's like a universal red carpet event! Venus, that celestial body of love and beauty, sashaying into Leo, is like a starlet making a grand entrance at a cosmic gala. And boy oh boy, she isn't here to whisper sweet nothings. She's got a megaphone and she's ready to shout her love from the rooftops!

Under this sky, we aren't just looking for a pat on the back or a "you're pretty cool." No sirree! We want to be adored. And I mean, full-on, fan club, showered with roses kind of adored. It's time to risk it for the biscuit, make grand gestures and maybe even pull some crazy stunts. If you've been playing it safe, you might find yourself warming the bench because the universe has just called game on!

But let me tell you, love isn't a calm sail when Venus waltzes into Leo's territory. Nope. It's more like a rollercoaster ride through a fireworks display. Leo doesn't just want to enjoy life, they want to be the life and soul of the party. They might even stir up some drama if they feel like their star is fading. So remember, love isn't a solo act, and if you keep hogging the spotlight, you might end up performing a one-man show.

And speaking of shows, when Venus is in Leo, money becomes the producer. It’s all about splurging on the glitz, glitter, and glamour—basically, living your best life, even if it's only for a few weeks. But let’s remember, while self-pampering is fun, Leo is also about generosity. So, don't forget to shower some of that extravagance on the ones you adore. Treating others might just give you more of a buzz than treating yourself.

So there you have it, stargazers! Venus in Leo—a celestial spectacle that's ready to jazz up your relationships and remind you that life without a pinch of pizzazz is like Pluto without its heart. It's just not quite right.

RoboCop's Astrological Update: Mars in Libra

Alright, fellow space nerds! Dust off your telescopes, because Mars has entered Libra's territory. And what does that mean? Well, let me put on my robe and wizard hat... not really. Science, remember? We're doing this RoboCop style, not Gandalf.

Mars, our galactic neighbor approximately 380933024.662349403 km away (give or take a few thousand kilometers for cosmic traffic), is in Libra now. But don't expect any extraterrestrial invasions just yet, because Mars in Libra is all about harmony, balance, and relationships. Think of it like a cosmic couples therapy, but without the uncomfortable couch and judgemental looks from a stranger.

When Mars, the planet of motivation and drive, waltzes with Libra, the sign of balance, we tend to focus more on our relationships. It's like we've suddenly swapped our RoboCop armor for a peace sign and tie-dye shirt. Arguments? Nah, too mainstream. We'd rather spread love and peace, maaan.

But beware, my celestial comrades. With all this "go with the flow" vibe, it's easy to turn a blind eye to larger issues. It's like ignoring that red warning light on your dashboard, hoping it'll magically disappear. Spoiler alert: it won't. Instead, use this time to address issues with diplomacy and grace. It's not about burying the hatchet, it's about turning it into a peace pipe.

Libra, our cosmic judge Judy, values justice. So, while Mars is hanging out in its territory, it's a great time to stand up for fairness and equality. Remember, even the most chilled hippie will fight for what's right.

On the downside, this transit could turn us into professional procrastinators. Mars is all about action, while Libra is like that friend who takes forever to decide on a restaurant. So, if you're feeling stuck, just remember - as long as you're acting with love, intention, and fairness, you're making the right moves. Or at least trying to, right?

So, keep that inner peace flowing, channel your inner RoboCop, and let Mars in Libra guide you towards balance and harmony. And remember, the universe doesn

Jupiter in Taurus: Back to the Future meets the Zodiac

Okay, zodiac enthusiasts! It's time to rev up your DeLoreans because Jupiter has parked its cosmic caboose in Taurus. For those of you who need a little hand-holding through this astral anomaly, let me break it down for you. This is like having Albert Einstein (Jupiter - the smarty pants of the solar system) move into the house of Biff Tannen (Taurus - stubborn as a bull and not likely to change his ways any time soon).

Jupiter is all about wisdom and deep thought, right? And Taurus... well, Taurus is about as movable as a statue of George McFly. So when these two get together, we're reminded that sometimes, the answers we're so desperately seeking are already chilling with us, probably munching on popcorn and watching reruns of "Back to the Future" while we scramble around looking for them.

So, instead of trying to hit 88 miles per hour in order to catch a glimpse of our future, let's use this cosmic combo to make some real progress towards our dreams. Think of it as drawing up a roadmap to your very own Enchantment Under the Sea dance - but remember, be patient and enjoy the ride!

And hey, did I mention that Jupiter is also the planet of good luck and fortune? That's right folks, we've got a cosmic lottery ticket right here. With Taurus being the Donald Trump of the zodiac - he's all about wealth and luxury - we could be looking at a serious payout. Just don't go buying a hoverboard on credit just yet. Taurus may love the finer things in life, but it also knows the value of a hard-earned buck.

So there you have it, friends - Jupiter in Taurus is like having Doc Brown whispering sweet scientific wisdom in one ear, and Biff Tannen shouting "make like a tree and invest wisely" in the other. It's time to buckle up, check your flux capacitors and get ready for a cosmic adventure!

Saturn in Pisces: Your Cosmic Wake-up Call

Imagine this, fellow earthlings: Saturn, the Lord of the Rings, has decided to take a vacation in Pisces, the zodiac's daydreamer. It's like Spock deciding to join a poetry slam or Sheldon Cooper dabbling in interpretive dance. The curious blend of hard facts and soft dreams is as deliciously absurd as a peanut butter and pickle sandwich. Yet, just as that bizarre combo can be surprisingly tasty, so can this celestial alignment be an unexpected boon for you!

Saturn in Pisces is your cosmic pep talk, a prod from the universe to dust off your dreams and bring them into the daylight. Think of Saturn as that friend who won't let you waste away on the couch eating Cheetos, but encourages you to get up and chase your dreams, even if they seem as far-fetched as finding intelligent life on Mars.

But beware, my astronomically attuned amigos! Saturn doesn't knock timidly on the door of your dreams – it kicks it wide open and demands a house tour. This planetary parent isn't afraid to conduct a surprise inspection, checking under the metaphorical bed for dust bunnies of procrastination and doubt. So, brace yourselves, because Saturn's visit may feel as intrusive as a UFO abducting your privacy. But remember, even a nosy neighbor can sometimes give good advice, especially when it comes from a being with billions of years of wisdom.

Now, with all this cosmic commotion going on, you might find yourself lying in bed, eyes wide open, wondering if there's a party in your head and someone forgot to invite you. Fear not, intrepid stargazers! This is an ideal time to cultivate inner calm. Meditate, or if that's too 'hippie-dippie' for you, just sit quietly without your phone. Go for a walk under the stars, letting the cosmic waltz soothe your mind. And don't forget to sleep! Dreams are Pisces' playground; who knows, you might find the next big idea while snoring away!

So, buckle up, star wanderers, because Saturn in Pisces is about as chill as a supernova, but if you're brave enough to ride this cosmic wave, you'll come out on the other side with dreams sturdier than a spaceship and a spirit brighter than

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 22 Tau 27' 57", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 2818011221km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Roll up, roll up! The cosmic circus is back in town, and the main act? Why, it's Uranus, doing a jazzy jig in the steadfast sign of Taurus! Picture this - a cosmic bull trying to balance on a high wire while juggling flaming torches. And if that doesn't get your nebulae in a twist, I don't know what will. Taurus, bless its celestial heart, would rather be home, lounging on a cosmic settee, crunching on stardust chips, and binge-watching the latest season of "Life on Earth." But no, Uranus has other plans - it's choreographing a dance that's all about change, disruption, and innovation. It's like trying to teach your granddad to breakdance - awkward, hilarious, and full of unexpected tumbles. And let's talk about moolah because that's Taurus' favorite song. With Uranus DJ-ing the finance deck, expect some seriously psychedelic remixes of 'Money Makes the World Go Round.' We're talking crypto-coins sprouting like mushrooms after a rainstorm, banks doing the Macarena, and the stock market playing a game of celestial Twister. On a more personal level, Uranus in Taurus is like a cosmic Marie Kondo, encouraging us to declutter our financial closets. Debt, taxes, credit card interest - it's time to toss them out like last season's space boots. Because, let's face it, we can't all be Scrooge McDuck, swimming in a vault of gold coins. So, brace yourselves, folks. Things may get a little wobbly. But remember, even if you feel like a cat in zero gravity, just go with the flow. Change is the only constant in this crazy universe of ours. And who knows, maybe when Uranus finally sashays out of Taurus, we'll find ourselves in a better place - both materially and spiritually. After all, as the great Albert Einstein once said, "The measure of intelligence is the ability to change." So, let's get our nerd on and embrace this cosmic conga line! Uranus in Taurus is here to shake us up and wake us up, one star at a time.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 25 Pis 47' 24", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4331392672km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Greetings, fellow astral adventurers! Grab your telescopes and buckle up as we embark on a cosmic journey that's about as predictable as a vegan at a barbecue. Our celestial buddy Neptune has taken up residency in Pisces and, let's be honest here, he's not just visiting for the weekend. Nope, this is one of those long, awkward stays, like when your third cousin twice removed decides to crash on your couch. But unlike your freeloading relative, Neptune's presence isn't something to grumble about. Nope, it's more like finding an unexpected chocolate bar in your back pocket - sweet, surprising, and a little bit melty. Now, I hear you saying, "What does having Neptune in Pisces mean for me?" Well, imagine you've just put on a brand-new pair of glasses. Suddenly, you can see the lint on your black shirt, the dust bunnies under your bed, and the stark reality of your failed attempts at indoor gardening (RIP, cactus). That's what Neptune in Pisces does. It grants us a form of clarity that transcends the physical world and delves into the realm of emotions and spirit. This is the time to toss aside petty differences like they're last season's fashion trends. The universe is giving us a nudge (or a rather vigorous shove) towards unity. It's like the cosmos are hosting a giant potluck and we're all invited to bring our best dish. Except instead of potato salad or deviled eggs, we're bringing our unique ideas, talents, and dreams. So, what's your contribution? Maybe it's time to dust off that old dream of becoming a yoga instructor or finally write that book about vegan cooking for carnivores (trust me, there's an audience for that). Whatever it is, Neptune in Pisces is here to support you. And remember, folks, the universe is like a 24/7 cosmic disco. So grab your dancing shoes and get ready to boogie with Neptune. Just remember, he's not very good at keeping time, and he'll probably step on your toes a few times. But hey, that's all part of the fun! Stay celestial, my friends!

Pluto

Pluto is in Capricorn

Pluto is retrograde at 27 Cap 53' 43", moving backwards at 0 degrees per day, and is 5177160813km away and receding.

Pluto Is In Capricorn

Greetings, fellow space travelers! Get ready to buckle up your moon boots and adjust your telescope to the far reaches of our solar system because our little buddy Pluto (yes, it's still a planet in my book!) is currently doing its cosmic cha-cha in the sign of Capricorn. Now, this might sound as exciting as a lecture on quantum physics at first (which, let's be honest, is actually pretty darn exciting if you ask me), but trust me, there's more to this celestial event than meets the eye. Picture this: Pluto, the Lord of the Underworld in a business suit, sitting behind a mahogany desk in some high-rise office building, demanding results. It's a bit like watching RoboCop trying to file his tax returns, right? Hilarious, yet oddly intriguing. Pluto and Capricorn together are like the power couple of the zodiac world. They're ambitious, they're determined, and they won't take no for an answer. It's all work, work, work with these two. Which is great if you're aiming to climb that corporate ladder or finally finish that robot-building project in your garage (I'm looking at you, Aquarius). But let's face it, not all of us have the emotional bandwidth to be the CEO of everything all the time. During this transit, you might feel a sudden urge to conquer the world or at least tidy up your sock drawer. Great! Go for it! Just remember, not everyone shares your newfound passion for sock-pairing efficiency. Beware of turning into a dictator who cannot tolerate mismatched socks. And while you're at it, Pluto is also whispering sweet nothings about transformation in your ear. It's all about out with the old, in with the new. It's like spring cleaning, but for your soul. Sounds fun, right? Well, brace yourselves, because it's not all rainbows and unicorns. Pluto's version of spring cleaning might involve a wrecking ball and some dynamite. But hey, sometimes you need to tear down that old, ugly wallpaper before you can put up your new Star Wars-themed one. So, my star-loving friends, as Pluto pirouettes in Capricorn, remember to channel your inner RoboCop. Be strong, be resilient, and keep your sense of humor handy, because let's face it, this cosmic dance is a spectacle worth watching!

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 Opposite Saturn

You may feel very unloved. You may see people as cold and calculating. People's lack of sympathy may depress you to the bone today. Social, financial, and romantic problems and disappointments characterize this transit. Selfishness and a lack of consideration are probably the reasons. You reap what you sow and now is a good time to analyze yourself and your relationships. There may be difficulties and delays with respect to women in general.Giving and receiving love are not flowing and natural for people born with Venus in hard aspect to Saturn. Blockages are experienced, and love relationships may be a source of frustration as a result, until the natives learn to love themselves, and to feel worthy of love from others. Duty is often associated with love, and some might find themselves stuck in a loveless marriage, for example. Especially in youth, these people might feel awkward in some social situations, unsure of how to express affections, and fearful of rejection. Problematic Saturn positions often get better with age, experience, and practice, however! In its more negative expression, some people with this position learn to scheme in order to get what they want from a partner, or they might treat partnerships as if they were businesses.These aspects can make natives especially sensitive to “cues” that suggest they are not loved or rejected in some way. People with Venus-Saturn in hard aspect can often “expect” rejection in issues of love and care, whether they are conscious of this tendency or not. This can often lead to negative situations in love — and bad timing or the feeling of having “bad luck” in relationships.People with Venus in hard aspect to Saturn might either downplay their physical appearance or pay excessive attention to it. Either way, self-consciousness with adornments is common. Often, people with this position sell themselves short. They are not risk takers when it comes to relationships, often choosing a path that they feel is safe, even if it is an uncomfortable one. Fear of giving can also express itself through tight-fistedness with money.The key to handling these aspects is to learn to loosen up and relax. Know that you may be oversensitive to rejection — and try to gain some perspective when you feel your love is not being returned to your satisfaction. Are you truly letting love in, or is there a part of you that is scared? Could your expectations and “heaviness” in the area of relationships (you might take love more seriously than most) be getting in the way of accepting love and affection? Venus-Saturn people may have deep-seated feelings of being unworthy of love, even if they are able to rationalize and decide otherwise!Alternate interpretations: Venus square Saturn or Venus opposition Saturn: *You are serious and find it difficult to enjoy yourself in a lighthearted, open and playful way with others. You rarely do something purely for pleasure, and can be very close-fisted and parsimonious. Perhaps due to painful separations in your early life, you are very cautious about becoming close to people and sharing your feelings. Though you crave love and affection, intimacy is difficult for you. You may become romantically involved with people who do not value you or treat you well. You need to learn to love and value yourself before you will find happiness in love.#You may find that your best sexual relationships are with individuals who are significantly older or younger than yourself. The role of teacher is so significant in your life that it may pervade your love life. You will need to overcome a sense of reserve or inhibition to deepen your spiritual connection.

Mars Square Pluto

This is the time where others might impose their will on you or you on them. Your ambition is high, as is that of others. This could lead to head-butting instead of cooperation. You can accomplish a lot today, but do not do so by running roughshod over the feelings or ideas of others. Today is not the day to lock horns with the boss or those in authority. Cool your jets. How you handle opposition from others today will go a long way in determining just how successful your actions will be. Keep your nose clean today and avoid all underhanded tactics. Remember, you will reap what you sow. Respect the rights and ideas of others. Try to see things their way and give them the benefit of the doubt.This is a powerful aspect in a natal chart suggesting, in your life time, you very often see extremes of behavior and experiences, or go through crises more than most. You may be no stranger to violence or abuse. You learn through your experiences self-control and self-awareness so that you are better equipped to deal with these extremes. You are wonderful to have around in times of crises, as you can quickly take the lead and you can be undaunted when it comes to defending or helping those you love. Your desires are deep, intense, and sometimes troubling. At times, you seem to attract strong opposition, perhaps because your own nature is rather provocative. You are a natural-born fighter. You can also be quite driven to find answers, and you make a good psychologist, analyst, and investigator. Compulsive behaviors should be watched carefully, as they can consume you and lead you to risky endeavors and difficult scenarios. There can be a strong desire to be in control. You have a tendency to impose your will upon others, which can cause severe problems for yourself when they react in self-defense. You have a hair-trigger temper and may even resort to verbal or physical abuse when upset. Learning to react to unpleasant circumstances with your intellect rather than your emotions comes with maturity. It’s also possible that you experience many extremes in life, and that you are on the receiving end of difficult tempers more than most.It is all too easy for you to find something negative about a situation. Avoid issuing ultimatums when you meet an obstacle. Instead, find a way to convince others to work with you of their own free will. Ordinary life often seems drab and uninteresting to you and you must have something that stirs your imagination, some vision or ideal or dream to motivate you. You have a strong urge to act out your fantasies or to live your dream, and you will DO things that others only talk about or dream about. Artistic creation, drama, or other areas in which you can express yourself imaginatively are excellent for you.You do not easily tolerate a dominating attitude in others. You have a healthy respect for power and authority, but only if it is handled fairly.This aspect gives you a somewhat Scorpionic attitude toward your lovers, and it can modify the traits associated with the sign of your Mars considerably. In other words, there is a distinct possessive and demanding streak in your sexual nature. Your approach to love and sex can be quite intense at times. Your sexual desire nature is a very strong one, and you may even use sex as a bargaining chip in your relationships in order to achieve your goals. More likely, however, is a very focused and intense sexual nature. This also adds a very magnetic quality to your appeal. When a woman finds you attractive, it can transform into a near obsession! Your aura is strong and somewhat mysterious. You tend to come across as stronger than you intend. In fact, some people are intimidated by you, and you may not understand why this is so. When you want something (or someone!) you are very determined. For you, it can be “all or nothing”. When you are finished with something, you leave it behind you and there is no going back. You want a deep, soulful attachment on a sexual level. In your love life you do not take rejection well. You fear betrayal and abandonment, and this can skew your perception of your lover. You have a highly developed sex drive, but you must learn to rein in your aggressiveness in this area.

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.
