28 October, 2023


Solar activity returned to low levels after the previous periods M1.4 flare from beyond the northeastern limb. Region 3471 (S23W46, Cro/Beta-Gamma) formed a weak Gamma configuration in its trailing spots then quickly began to undergo decay. Region 3473 (N16E57, Bxo/Beta) produced a C2.1 flare at 27/0854 UTC, which was technically the largest of the period. Region 3474 (S17E37, Bxo/Beta) formed and was numbered this period, but was otherwise unremarkable.

The solar kp index is unsettled, with retrograde effects slightly enhanced. The solar wind speed is currently above average, making retrograde effects moderately increased.

Solar wind parameters were under the gradually, waning influence of a positive polarity CH HSS regime. Total field reached 10 nT before weakening to 5-6 nT. The Bz component underwent brief southward deflections of up to -8 nT during the early ours of the period, but have since been at our near neutral. Solar wind speeds declined from ~475 km/s to ~360 km/s, and phi was in a positive solar sector.

There is a 25% chance of solar activity, with a 5% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.

Moon Is In Aries

AHOY, stargazers and cosmic wanderers! Toss off those Birkenstocks, put down that kale smoothie, and listen up. Tonight, our dear, old friend, the Moon, is playing footsie with Aries. And oh, what a sight it is! If you had a telescope with the strength of Superman's eyesight, you'd see the Moon grinning like a Cheshire Cat. Now, let's get nerdy for a moment. The Moon is precisely 367,705.525559753km away - yes, I counted every last kilometer. You could say it's within spitting distance if you were a blue whale with a serious case of the sniffles. But, alas, we are mere humans, so let’s appreciate it from down here, shall we? Moon in Aries is like having Gandalf at your hobbit birthday party. It's magical, exhilarating, and might just result in some fireworks. So, if you feel like yelling "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" at your problems, go for it. Just don’t forget, there's a fine line between bravery and foolishness. But hold onto your wizard hats, because in the next 24 hours, the Moon will do a little sidestep into Taurus, trading its fiery wand for a calm, earthy cudgel. You might feel like swapping your epic adventure for a comfy chair and a good book. So, remember, fellow star children, the cosmos is a big, wild place. But don't worry, your friendly neighborhood astrologer is here to guide you through it all, one zodiac sign at a time. Now, where did I put my quill...?

Mercury

Mercury is in Scorpio

Mercury is prograde at 09 Sco 45' 54", moving at 1.61 degrees per day, and is 214648781km away and approaching.

Mercury Is In Scorpio

Hey there, celestial enthusiasts! So, here's the starry lowdown: Mercury is currently doing its thing in Scorpio, which is about as chill as a caffeine-fueled squirrel with a deadline. Now, before you go calling NASA or checking your basement for extra-terrestrial life forms, let me assure you, this isn't a sequel to 'War of The Worlds'. You see, Scorpio is pretty much the Sherlock Holmes of the zodiac. It thrives in the realm of secrets, mysteries, and the occasional existential crisis. Picture it like this: Scorpio is that friend who, while watching a movie, won't just accept that the butler did it. They'll question the motives of the potted plant in the corner, and probably write an in-depth analysis on it. As Mercury moonwalks through Scorpio's territory, we all start to channel our inner detective. We dig deeper, ask more questions, and hunt for the hidden meanings in everything, from our morning coffee to the cryptic texts from our ex. But brace yourselves, because the treasures we unearth may not all be rainbows and unicorns. Think of it as a cosmic flashlight, illuminating all the dusty corners of our psyche. Fears, desires, and that weird dream about dancing with intergalactic llamas – they're all up for review. This is also prime time for bonding over shared secrets, taboo topics, and heated debates about whether pineapple belongs on pizza (Spoiler: It does). But beware, folks. Mercury in Scorpio may turn us into cosmic skeptics. We might start seeing conspiracies everywhere, even suspecting our pet cat of plotting world domination. Remember, push too hard for the truth and you might end up turning your relationships into an episode of 'X-files'. That said, if navigated wisely, this period can also foster intimacy like a cozy cup of cosmic cocoa. By daring to ask the tough questions, we might just find the answers that bring us closer. So, buckle up, star gazers! It's time to embark on an interstellar journey of self-discovery, cosmic revelations, and perhaps, a few alien encounters (or at least, some bizarre dreams).

Venus

Venus is in Virgo

Venus is prograde at 18 Vir 12' 51", moving at 1.03 degrees per day, and is 108691610km away and receding.

Venus Is In Virgo

Greetings, earthlings and celestial beings! I come to you today with news of astronomical proportions - Venus is swinging by Virgo like a cosmic comet at a casual distance of 108,638,355.957984909 km (and for those of you who've misplaced your calculators, that's quite the cosmic commute!). As Venus pirouettes into Virgo, it's as if it's casting a spell upon us all - urging us to be more discerning in matters of the heart. You might feel like you're on an episode of "Love or Logic," where if love isn't approaching perfection, you'd rather work on your Sudoku skills. For those entangled in the webs of love, this celestial shift offers an opportunity to step back, pull out your emotional magnifying glass, and assess if your relationship has more substance than a hollow chocolate bunny. For the unattached, Venus in Virgo is like a cosmic metal detector, helping you spot the red flags in potential love interests that you usually miss. You'll be like Sherlock Holmes of dating, solving the mysteries of love faster than you can say "elementary, my dear Watson." Now, there's a downside to this zodiac-inspired scrutiny. You might find yourself nitpicking your partner more than usual, treating them like a scientific experiment gone haywire. But remember, communication is key. Instead of pointing out every flaw like you're grading a test paper, engage in constructive dialogue. Like tweaking an algorithm, make necessary adjustments in your relationships and watch as they evolve positively. Venus in Virgo may sound as exciting as watching paint dry, but trust me, it has its own brand of passion. Virgo, being an Earth sign, appreciates the finer things in life - food, art, nature, and people. So, while you might not be having whirlwind romances, you'll get to enjoy the best of what life has to offer, from gourmet meals to nature hikes. So, as Venus dances in Virgo, remember - this isn't a time for quick flings or hasty decisions. It's a time for introspection, appreciation, and maybe even a little stargazing. And who knows? You might just find that love is closer than 108,638,355.957984909 km away.

Mars

Mars is in Scorpio

Mars is prograde at 10 Sco 58' 48", moving at 0.69 degrees per day, and is 381060589km away and approaching.

Mars Is In Scorpio

Well, hello there stargazers, and welcome to another episode of "Cosmic Craziness with Yours Truly". Today we're talking about Mars in Scorpio. Now, hold on to your space helmets because this is going to be a wild ride. First off, let's do some nerdy number crunching, shall we? Mars, our red neighbor, is currently sitting at a comfy distance of 381,063,845.845041931km away from our humble Earth. That's about the same distance as 9,526,596,146.12548 standard-sized fridges lined up end to end. Isn't that amazing? And don't even get me started on the prograde motion - it's like the planet's doing a cosmic samba! Now, onto the juicy stuff. Mars being in Scorpio is like that one uncle at family reunions who won't take no for an answer. He's got his own agenda, and if you cross him... Well, let's just say it's not pretty. This celestial event is essentially the universe handing us all a giant cosmic backbone. It's like saying, "Here you go, champ, time to take charge of your life, and good luck to anyone who tries to stop you." Under the influence of Mars in Scorpio, we are driven to change something in our lives, and we’re not afraid to dive into the murky waters of our psyche to do so. This is like having a spiritual garage sale – out with the old, in with the new. However, there's a downside to this fiery cosmic event. Like a chili pepper in a fruit salad, we might find ourselves expressing our feelings with a bit too much spice, causing conflicts and potential relationship erosion. It's like Mars in Scorpio hands us a cosmic wrecking ball, and we must be careful not to demolish everything in sight. This cosmic event is basically a spiritual boot camp, which might sound scary, but it's actually a great opportunity. We get to face our shadows, power struggles, revenge fantasies, bitterness, and our inability to forgive. It's like having a personal trainer for your soul. So remember, space cadets, during Mars in Scorpio, it's all about balance. Use this energy constructively, channel your inner Mr. or Mrs. Fix-it, and you'll come out the other side stronger than ever. Until next time, keep your telescopes focused and your minds open!

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is retrograde at 11 Tau 18' 48", moving backwards at 0.13 degrees per day, and is 596244341km away and approaching.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Greetings Earthlings, Jupiter Is Crashing the Taurus Party

Alright, you interstellar aficionados! Buckle up because Jupiter, our solar system's big shot, has meandered into Taurus, the zodiac's loveable couch potato. It's like Einstein deciding to hang out with the Dude from the Big Lebowski. Mind-blowing, isn't it?

So what does this mean? Simply put, Jupiter is the cosmic Gandalf, spreading wisdom and encouraging deep thoughts, while Taurus is more like your favorite comfy chair that you never want to leave. Merging the two is like trying to convince a sloth to run a marathon. But hey, miracles happen!

Jupiter in Taurus is like a wake-up call for your dreams. Imagine your wildest aspirations got tired of waiting around and decided to kick-start your motivation. You'll be so inspired that making to-do lists will become your new hobby. Not just any to-do lists though, these are your dream-chasing, goal-crushing, earth-shattering checklists. It's like having your personal cheerleader, pushing you to trust the process and achieve those sweet, sweet victories.

Now, let’s talk about the moolah, baby! Jupiter is the lucky charm of planets and Taurus is the Wall Street of Zodiac signs. It's like winning a lottery ticket to Fort Knox. But hold your horses! Taurus, being the hedonist it is, might persuade you to spend all your newly acquired fortune on the most luxurious toilet paper or a private concert with your favorite band. Remember, needs and wants can sometimes look suspiciously similar.

So, don’t just sit there! Grab this opportunity, but remember, moderation is key. After all, even though Jupiter is partying in Taurus, it doesn't mean you have to blow all your cosmic blessings on a diamond-studded spaceship. Unless, of course, that's your dream, then by all means, go nuts!

Saturn

Saturn is in Pisces

Saturn is retrograde at 00 Pis 33' 22", moving backwards at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 1388250720km away and receding.

Saturn Is In Pisces

When Saturn Crashes Pisces' Pool Party

Alright my cosmic compadres, let's get nerdy! We've got Saturn, our friendly neighborhood taskmaster, making a house call to Pisces, the dreamy, watery zodiac sign. Now, if Saturn were a Star Trek character, it'd probably be Spock, all logic and order. And Pisces? Probably Frodo Baggins, off in its own little world, dreaming about saving the Shire. So what happens when Spock shows up at Frodo's door? Well, let's just say things are about to get interesting!

With Saturn in Pisces, it's time to strap on your metaphorical scuba gear and dive deep into the sea of dreams. You know that crazy idea you had about starting a unicorn petting zoo or inventing edible shoelaces? Now's the time to dust off that dream and give it some structure. Saturn's here to provide the scaffolding to turn your daydreams into reality, even if they do involve candy-coated footwear.

But don't think this is going to be a walk in the park...or a float in the pool, as Pisces might prefer. Saturn, being the cosmic life coach that it is, is gonna push you. It might feel like you're being grilled by a Jeopardy champion about your deepest desires. Remember, though, the old robot from Forbidden Planet didn't become a legend by being comfortable. His advice is worth its weight in gold...or in this case, stardust.

Now, with all this introspection going on, you might find yourself more restless than a cat in a room full of rocking chairs. Embrace it! This is the perfect time to try out that yoga class, take a moonlit walk, or just chill out with some good old fashioned deep breathing. And hey, if you're losing sleep, remember to keep a dream journal handy. You never know when Saturn might drop a cosmic truth bomb in your dreams. So turn off that Netflix, put down your phone, and get some Zzz's. Your dreamscape awaits!

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 21 Tau 43' 59", moving backwards at 0.04 degrees per day, and is 2793302680km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Hey there, star gazers! Grab your telescopes, your pocket protectors, and let's buckle up because the cosmic rollercoaster is taking a sharp turn! Uranus, that big blue rebel of the solar system, has decided to crash at Taurus' place for a while. Yes, you heard right! Uranus is in Taurus, and it’s going retrograde faster than a hipster on a recycled bicycle! Now, let's chat about Taurus for a second. Taureans are like that one friend who organizes their socks by color and freaks out if you put the milk back in the fridge wrong. They love their routines, their comforts, their stability...basically, they're old souls in snuggly slippers. They'd rather watch reruns of their favorite show than try something new. But guess who's about to shake up this cozy little world? Yep, you guessed it - Uranus! Now, imagine Uranus as the eccentric scientist, always tinkering with the unknown, causing a ruckus, and generally upsetting the apple cart. So, when Uranus rolls into Taurus' hood, you can expect things to get...interesting. Money, the language Taurus speaks fluently, is in for a cosmic shakeup. We could see a rise in alien currency (And no, I don't mean from Mars, though I wouldn’t put it past our Universe), dramatic banking changes, or even a stock market rollercoaster ride that would make even the bravest Wall Street bull sweat a bit. On a personal level, Uranus in Taurus is like that friend who gives you an intervention about your online shopping addiction. It's time to reevaluate our relationship with money, folks. Those credit card bills, student loans, and that avocado toast habit might need a second look. It's time to break free from materialism and realize that experiences beat expensive gadgets any day! So, wipe off those round glasses, tighten your suspenders, and let's embrace change with open arms! After all, Uranus isn't here to create chaos (even though it seems like it). It is here to liberate us, and resisting won’t make things any easier. The changes we make during this period might just lead us to a new level of stability, one that even Taurus would approve of.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 25 Pis 18' 06", moving backwards at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 4357743250km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Oh, folks, I see you there, shuffling your feet and playing with your calculator watch, trying to figure out how to bring some levity to this Neptunian-Piscean cosmic jamboree. And yes, I said jamboree, because Neptune and Pisces are throwing a party, and we're all on the invite list! First things first, let's talk science - Neptune is approximately 4,357,699,574.444394112km away (give or take a few decimal places). But don't let that distance fool you, my little science nerds; in the world of astrology, Neptune is as close as your next thought, as present as your next breath. Now, I know what you're thinking, "But our beloved, nerdy astrologer, Neptune is in retrograde!" Well, my dear quantum mechanic, you're absolutely right! But fear not, this is not a time for panic, rather it's a time to embrace a new perspective. Think of it as your favorite sci-fi show - things are going backward to go forward. Just like when they rewind time in Stargate SG-1, right? Now let's get down to the Pisces part. Neptune's dance with Pisces is like a Vulcan mind meld of emotions and spirit. Imagine Spock having a good cry and you're halfway there. It's an opportunity to see through the foggy lens of our own contradictions and realize that all those petty differences? They're as irrelevant as a Tribble at a Starfleet conference. This unique cosmic alignment is like a celestial spotlight on the collective. We all have something to contribute, whether it's your grandma's secret cookie recipe or your idea for a perpetual motion machine - now is the time to share those treasures. So, maybe you've been feeling the call to explore a spiritual path or create your own sacred space. Go for it! Turn your living room into a zen garden or start meditating in your Star Wars-themed bedroom! Neptune in Pisces has got your back. So, dust off that telescope, grab your favorite cup of herbal tea, and let's ride this Neptunian wave together. And remember, in the wise words of Jack O'Neill, "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it... if we come to it."

Pluto

Pluto is in Capricorn

Pluto is prograde at 27 Cap 57' 52", moving at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 5232828422km away and receding.

Pluto Is In Capricorn

Pluto in Capricorn: A Cosmic Stand-Up Comedy Routine

Well, well, well! Wouldn't you know it? Pluto, the solar system's favorite underdog, is in Capricorn. Now, I know what you're thinking, "Isn't Pluto just a dwarf planet?" Well, let me tell you, folks, size isn't everything in this universe. It's all about the gravitational pull!

With Pluto in Capricorn, we've got two entities that are more goal-driven than a caffeine-fueled physicist at a quantum mechanics conference. They're both hell-bent on success, power, and getting things done, kind of like a cosmic version of your boss on a Monday morning. But remember, in this cosmic push for results, there's a risk we might start dismissing other people's ideas faster than a Trekkie dismisses Star Wars as superior science fiction. So, keep those Vulcan ears open!

Now, Pluto, the little celestial body that could, wants us to ditch our bad habits. It's like a cosmic Marie Kondo, but instead of asking if it sparks joy, Pluto asks if it's holding you back. And if it is, BAM! It's outta here. This might involve a bit of "constructive destruction," so don't be alarmed if you suddenly feel the urge to purge everything that's not serving you, including that collection of novelty socks. You know the ones I'm talking about.

So, take this time to be deliberate in your life. Destroy what needs to be destroyed, create what needs to be created. And remember, even if you're not a Capricorn, we're all under the same sky. Or as I like to say, "In space, no one can hear you snore."

Mercury

Mercury Conjunct Mars

Pour constructive energy and action into communication, writing, reading and anything of a mental nature. Do all your errands today. Your mind is active and it may be difficult at times to slow it down and relax. Your nerves are wound up and it may be necessary for you at some time today to force yourself to seek a quiet place and recoup your strength. Watch a tendency to argue with friends, display impatience, especially while driving, and to generally be on edge. Do not let your high energy level today cause you to become reckless or careless. Pay attention to the things you do and slow down a bit. Remember, discipline. You feel very self-assertive today. Do not let your ego ride roughshod over the people you deal with today. Control your temper AND your tongue. Avoid petty gossip and talking about people behind their backs.

 

Mercury

Mercury Opposite Jupiter

Your judgment may not be perfect today. You may tend to exaggerate and promise more than you can deliver. You may likely bite off more than you can chew. Mental arrogance is possible. Be tolerant of others' viewpoints. Be careful with contracts and other legal issues. You may appear closed-minded, smug or self-righteous to others.You love to express your ideas, sharing them with others quite readily. Jumping to conclusions can be a problem in your life. You often overlook details, preferring to discover the “big picture” quickly. Your thinking and studying habits are not always orderly or disciplined, and this can of course result in sloppiness. Especially with the opposition, you might vacillate between logical, precise thinking and an optimistic conclusion-drawing bent of mind, and in the process, it can be challenging for you to truly get to the heart of a subject or to focus for very long. You may confuse others with a critical flaw-finding conversation one moment, and an overly faithful and unrealistic opinion the next.While your intentions are generally good, you might overestimate what you are capable of, and promise more than you can deliver. Be careful not to develop a reputation for being unreliable, simply because you desire to make others happy with what you say or promise.You are inclined to exaggerate, often without meaning to, and you might have a hard time putting your ideas into practice. In an attempt to attach greater meaning to your thoughts and ideas, you might frequently overstate or overestimate. You can be extraordinarily funny and interesting.You possess an acute but disorderly mind; you can come to rapid conclusions without knowing all the facts. You must learn to be more disciplined, to concentrate more on details and to be more persistent with your projects. You are very generous and optimistic though your optimism can sometimes distance you from reality. — sample from the Adult report.Some Famous People with the Mercury in Hard Aspect to Jupiter: Squares – Arnold Bennett, Annie Bessant, Barry Bonds, Frank Capra, Julia Child, Jimmy Connors, Miles Davis, Dave Davies, Aretha Franklin, Madeline Kahn, Ted Kennedy Jr., Mata Hari, Bill Moyers, Ginger Rogers, Rod Stewart, John Travolta; Oppositions – Karen Allen, Chet Atkins, Dick Clark, Winston S.

Mars

Mars Opposite Jupiter

You may notice that you've overextended yourself regarding relationships with others. You may have promised more than you can deliver and now may be the time when people feel as if you've let them down. This is not the time to get involved in a risky business or investment opportunity. Pull in the reins a little and curb your desire to overspend. You must guard against over-optimism and overconfidence. The desire to take risks may be high today. If you choose that route, just remember that a little restraint can go a long way and may save you trouble and financial loss down the road. Go get some exercise and you will probably feel better.This aspect brings great impulsiveness, insatiable desires, playfulness, and daring. You might be frequently trying to prove yourself, to others and/or yourself, and thus readily take on a challenge. You desire exciting experiences and may rarely be satisfied with your life as it is. You require much space and freedom, and you demand to be treated with fairness. You need to be careful that your behavior is deserving of these liberties, and that you treat others with the same respect. Many people with this position tend to flee when angry. This is not because they are afraid of confrontation, because they certainly are not, but when they are frustrated, a deep inner restlessness is stirred. Some people with this position can be quite self-serving, often without even realizing it, demanding freedom and space from others but not necessarily returning the favor.Another negative expression of Mars square Jupiter and Mars opposition Jupiter is a haughty or boastful attitude–some with this aspect in their birth charts feel they can get away with practically anything. Often they can, and even when they don’t, they are quick to recover from losses. However, this is generally due to a tendency to turn a blind eye to what has happened. Here again is the tendency to flee rather than reflect. They are quick to forget or ignore their mistakes, thus the chances of repeating them run high!Your impulsiveness combined with a competitive streak can incline you to gambling, not just with money. Your sex drive is considerable, and some with this position never feel they have enough, or enough experiences, which can lead to sexual promiscuity for some. You would benefit greatly from more time for self-reflection, as you don’t always see your behavior clearly. When you don’t learn from your mistakes, you repeat them.You are attracted to adventure, exploration, and conquest. There is a real spirit of adventure with Mars-Jupiter aspects, but because these planets are in challenging aspect, there can be difficulty knowing when to stop, and slowing down long enough to feel satisfied with one’s accomplishments. Dieters are encouraged to slow down while eating a meal so that they can know when they are full and satisfied. If they eat too quickly, they are likely to eat more than they need. Similarly, people with Mars in hard aspect to Jupiter would benefit from slowing down and reflecting on their experiences so that they avoid living life feeling they have never had enough. This can also help to avoid this position’s tendency to be accident-prone. Males with this position might be difficult to domesticate! There can be exaggerated “masculine” traits, including an insatiable need to “hunt”.You are very resilient, bouncing back from any setback quickly and usually in a stronger position. You are quite playful and humorous, love to joke around, enjoy practical jokes, and are quick to smile and laugh.Interpretation sample from the KidZone report – Mars opposition JupiterThe native has the feisty planet Mars in opposition to the expansive planet Jupiter. This is a very positive aspect. The native will have lots of energy and lots of optimism, with an enthusiasm that attracts. However, these little ones may have some difficulty getting along with people because they are naturally competitive rather than co-operative. This competitiveness is not aggression. These youngsters simply enjoy a good spirited contest. But they would find life so much easier if they did not treat everything and everyone as competition.This aspect can signify athletic ability. The child will definitely need an outlet for abundant physical energy. Where better than through some sort of physical sport? The natural competitive nature will be more easily accepted in this sort of atmosphere too. This child will be very restless and need a lot of freedom. These kids will not like anyone holding them back or placing restrictions upon them. The outdoors will appeal to this sense of freedom.These kids may be rather clumsy, especially while they are young. There could be a tendency to be accident-prone. The main problem is that this child is in too much of a hurry. These youngsters get too carried away in the excitement of the moment. ‘Less haste – more speed’ could be a good motto for this little one.The onset of puberty will be exciting for this child but the compulsive urge to grab every opportunity that comes along can be a source of total exhaustion that will be ignored. Relating to [love interests] will be relatively easy, but some lessons on taking sexual responsibility will be needed. When the child grows up and forms close relationships with [love interests], a sense of freedom will be important. These individuals react aggressively when they feel emotional stress. They will always tend to act impulsively. Any partner will have to give this child plenty of personal space, and perhaps be prepared for him or her to have some rather dictatorial views.Alternate, short interpretations: Interpretation sample from the Merlin report – Mars square Jupiter or Mars opposition Jupiter: You are enterprising, ambitious, and have a strong desire to succeed in a big way. Ever on the look out for new opportunities and promising new ventures, you are willing to take risks if you sense that something is going to be a winner. No matter how much you accomplish, you never seem to be completely satisfied. You always feel you can do more, and set your sights on another goal. You feel frustrated in limited circumstances, and you will leave secure and reasonably successful situations if they do not offer challenges and potential for growth and expansion in the future. You like to keep stretching your limits, to see how far you can go. Sometimes you over-extend yourself or promise more than you can actually achieve, due to an overly optimistic or overly confident assessment of your own capacities. You relish healthy competition and feel that it spurs you on to even greater achievements.Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report – Your spiritual interaction with other people is generally quite fortunate in nature. You gain an understanding of a wide range of spiritual teachings through direct contact with others, and you develop the ability to resolve conflicts on all levels of business and personal life in this way.Interpretation sample from the Karmic Insight report – You have broad, expansive goals and will not be content with humble achievements or success on a small scale. Enthralled with the joy of the conquest, your desires and enthusiasm may gallop away with you. You often do not know when you have had or done enough. Many things do come easily to you–athletics, leadership, creative efforts of all kind–and you are apt to have King Midas’s touch, especially early in life. However, this may lead to overconfidence or inflated expectations later on. In your work you are apt to be an overachiever with an overemphasis on physical and/or sexual adventure. Once again, not knowing when to stop or say no can be your downfall.Some Famous People with the Mars in Hard Aspect to Jupiter: Squares – Vincent Van Gogh, Chuck Berry, Johnny Carson, Nat King Cole, Tim Conway, Marie Curie, Jessica Hahn, Diane Keaton, Michael Landon. Oppositions – Richard Wagner, Gay Talese, Rick Springfield, Gene Simmons, Sugar Ray Leonard, Henry Fonda, David Copperfield, Julius Caesar, Bruce Lee.

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.
