Scorpio's moon reminds you to avoid distractions. Your emotions are likely running pretty strong, so make sure to focus and don't take things too personally. Don't jump to conclusions. That said, those strong emotions might be useful in your love life!
Notice that you're reacting a little more harshly. You're going to be a little more passionate. You're likely to push your limits. Take advantage of this to be more introspective of your feelings and let them guide you.

Venus is in Aries
Venus is prograde at 25 Ari 34' 08", moving at 1.21 degrees per day, and is 195245663 km away and approaching.
Greetings, my fellow stargazers. It is I, Marvin the Paranoid Android, here to give you the lowdown on Venus in Aries. Brace yourselves, because things are about to get spicy. With Venus moving through fiery Aries, it's time to throw out those old love patterns and lackluster relationships. This transit is all about new experiences and adventurous encounters. So, if you're single and ready to mingle, it's time to get out there and explore your options. Venus in Aries will ignite a courageous fire that makes you more confident and assertive when meeting new people. For those already in relationships, it's time to reignite the fire between you and your partner. Explore each other's personal desires and experience new things together. But beware, this transit can also make love and relationships seem selfish or imbalanced. So, make sure you're giving just as much as you're receiving. Now, let's talk money. Venus in Aries is all about investing in yourself. But don't go overboard on spending without considering the consequences. Instead, invest in exciting things that boost your confidence and zest for life. A new outfit, hairstyle, or an active weekend getaway will do the trick. Overall, Venus in Aries is not a time for long-term commitments. Think of it as a test phase where you get to taste different flavors before settling on just one. It's a time to go after what you desire and not settle for anything less. So, get out there and live in the moment, without fear from the past or concern for the future. And remember, as always, don't panic.
Mars is in Gemini
Mars is prograde at 24 Gem 18' 29", moving at 0.45 degrees per day, and is 189561617 km away and receding.
Listen up, my fellow star gazers! Mars is in Gemini, and let me tell you, it's time to put on your thinking caps and get curious. We're not gonna sit around twiddling our thumbs during this transit, oh no! We're gonna explore all the new ideas and hobbies that come our way. But here's the thing, with so many shiny objects catching our attention, it's gonna be tough to stay focused on just one thing. It's like trying to catch a butterfly in a jar - we want to taste everything and make multiple plans to get what we want. And guess what? That's totally okay! Gemini is all about being flexible and diverse, and Mars is all about taking action. So if plan A doesn't work out, don't sweat it. Whip out your Plan B, C, and D, and keep on truckin'! But hold on a second, fellow astrologers. While we're flitting about like butterflies, we need to remember that there are consequences for leaving projects unfinished. We don't want to get so scattered and unfocused that we can't finish what we started. Stay on track, my friends! And finally, let's talk about passion and sex, because let's face it, we're all thinking about it. With Mars in Gemini, the biggest turn-on is mental stimulation. So forget about candles and rose petals, give us a good conversation any day! That's all for now, folks. Keep exploring, stay focused, and keep those brains stimulated!
Jupiter is in Aries
Jupiter is prograde at 14 Ari 40' 30", moving at 0.23 degrees per day, and is 876182650 km away and receding.
Hark, fellow stargazers! Jupiter is now in Aries, and it's time to ignite the fire of innovation within us. Like a wizard with a wand, we must wave away the limits of our past and conjure up new solutions for the future. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is always willing to boldly go where no one has gone before. So, let us follow suit and fearlessly step into uncharted territory. The cosmos are calling us to embrace our inner hippie, release our inner nerd, and unleash our inner genius! But beware, my magical friends, for this is not the time to slowly map out a strategized plan. No, no, no! We must feel the sparks of inspiration and run with them like a wild unicorn on the loose. The more time we take, the more restrictions and problems we'll encounter, and that will only hold us back. Remember, we're encouraged to shoot from the hip and learn as we go. Now, while Jupiter often encourages us to learn from others, Jupiter in Aries is all about self-teaching and self-learning. We mustn't be afraid to take risks and try new things, even if we feel unprepared. Failure is just a stepping stone in the path to success. But, be warned, opinions may run hot during this transit, and we must be open to two-way dialogue to avoid confrontation. So, let us embrace the power we have to control the direction of our lives, and open ourselves up to new opportunities, solutions, relationships, and fortune. Jupiter wants us to expand and embrace our potential as individuals, and to realize that we each hold the key to our big, bright, and happy futures. In the words of a wise old wizard, "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live." The stars are aligned, my friends, and it's time to create our own magic!
Saturn is in Pisces
Saturn is prograde at 00 Pis 39' 54", moving at 0.12 degrees per day, and is 1605679237 km away and approaching.
Ah, my dear friend, it seems like Saturn is currently in Pisces. Now, this is the perfect time to look within yourself and connect with that daydream you've been having about writing a book or opening a business. But hold on to your notepads, my friend, because we're about to receive some coaching that will blow our minds. When the Master of Rules is in the final sign of the zodiac, you better believe that they're going to make sure that our dreams are fruitful. So gather up all those details, plan out how to make things happen, and work out a budget. Saturn in Pisces is here to guide us towards success, but it won't be a cake-walk. You may feel intruded upon or become defensive when Saturn in Pisces questions your daydreams, but trust me, his advice is more helpful than you'd like to admit. Don't be afraid to open the door and listen. However, with all this conscious attention in the Piscean realm, you may feel restless, anxious, or have trouble sleeping. So take the time to cultivate inner calm. Meditate, go for a walk in the woods, breathe deeply, and make sure to get a full night's sleep. Allow yourself to hear and heed the deep wisdom available during this transit. And who knows, my friend, you may just find yourself living the dream you've always wanted.
Uranus is in Taurus
Uranus is prograde at 15 Tau 57' 42", moving at 0.04 degrees per day, and is 3026861568 km away and receding.
Listen up, all you Taurus folks out there! Uranus is in your sign and it's here to shake things up like a 10.0 earthquake. You bulls like things steady and predictable, but let me tell you, Uranus ain't about that life. It's all about big, sudden changes and flipping the script on the status quo. And where does Uranus focus its revolutionary energy? Money, baby! That's right, during this transit, we can expect some serious upheaval in the financial world. Banks might disappear, new forms of currency might emerge, and the housing and stock markets could be in for a wild ride. But it's not just about the Benjamins, my friends. Uranus in Taurus also wants us to break free from the chains of debt, taxes, and material possessions. It's time to change our relationship to money and embrace a more liberated way of living. Now, I know you Tauruses might be resistant to change, but trust me, it's for your own good. Embrace the chaos, let go of the old ways, and get ready for a wild ride. Uranus is here to liberate you, so don't fight it. In the end, you'll be better off for it.
Neptune is in Pisces
Neptune is prograde at 25 Pis 00' 47", moving at 0.04 degrees per day, and is 4623078646 km away and receding.
Well, well, well, my fellow stargazers! It looks like Neptune is taking a dip in Pisces! And let me tell you, this cosmic combination is going to give us some serious clarity. Our emotions and spirits are going to merge with Neptune's unifying powers, revealing our true selves and the path to wholeness. It's like wearing glasses for the first time - suddenly, everything becomes clear, and we can see how silly it is to sweat the small stuff. So, what do we do with all this newfound vision? We start by exploring our emotional intelligence and figuring out what unique gifts we can bring to the collective. Maybe it's taking a spiritual course or creating a sacred space at home. Whatever it is, Neptune in Pisces is here to support us in our journey towards progress and healing. So, my hippie friends, let's embrace this transit with open arms and let Neptune guide us towards a brighter future. And remember, we're all in this together!
Pluto is in Capricorn
Pluto is prograde at 29 Cap 47' 34", moving at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 5283633191 km away and approaching.
Greetings, earthlings! It's your favorite funny astrologer here to give you the lowdown on Pluto in Capricorn. Listen up, folks, because Pluto and Capricorn are like two peas in a pod when it comes to success and power. They're like the dynamic duo of intention and focus, making them super efficient at achieving their goals. But hold on to your hats, because this transit might make us a little less compassionate towards other people's viewpoints. Pluto and Capricorn demand results, and they don't have time for any nonsense. So, my fellow stargazers, beware of being intolerant of ideas that don't match your own. We gotta keep an open mind, even when we're laser-focused on achieving our dreams. Pluto wants us to ditch all those negative patterns that aren't serving us anymore. But don't go crazy with the destruction, okay? Be deliberate in what you tear down as you build yourself back up. It's like that saying goes: out with the old, in with the new. So, there you have it, space cadets. Keep your eyes on the prize, but don't forget to be kind along the way. May the stars be ever in your favor!

Current Planetary Positions
Sun Conjunct Mercury
You may feel like expressing yourself today through your thoughts and words. You feel a need to be heard, that you have something of importance to say. Say what is on your mind, but give equal time to others and listen to them. You might learn something new. Your thinking today should be sharp and focused.
Sun Square Mars
You are full of it today, high energy, force of will, and a dislike of any restraint. Slow down a little so you don't go flying off the handle. Physical, mental, and verbal confrontations are likely today, so stay in control. Don't speed today as the police may be watching you. Don't stay out in the sun too long. Your will is tested today and the universe wants to see if you can keep your head. As they say, "Don't have a cow." Ego conflicts and selfishness are today's problem areas.There is an unmistakable competitiveness and a “me-first” attitude with those who have Sun square or opposition Mars in their natal charts. The fighter persona is most apparent in youth, when the child is described as a “bundle of energy”, or it is remarked that he or she “can’t sit still”. The abundant energy generated by the hard aspects (especially the square) between the Sun and Mars is hard to direct in childhood. Later in life, ideally, those with these aspects have learned to channel some of their excess energy into productive avenues–perhaps through career, sports, or any area where competitiveness is considered an asset. Nevertheless, people with these aspects can meet up with more than their share of conflict, and they can most certainly rub people the wrong way. They are very motivated to get things done, to take action rather than simply talk about something, and to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible. Those who know them quite well might describe these people as hot-headed and temperamental at times. They are easily frustrated, and they’re given to impulsive actions and assertion of their wills. If the aspect is found in cardinal signs, it gives impulsiveness and a short temper. If the aspect is found in fixed signs, the natives can be very hard-headed and willful. If it’s in mutable signs, it gives a restless and frustrated impatience.Essentially, those with Sun square Mars in their charts have faced conflict and are not particularly afraid of it. They have faced having their need to assert themselves blocked. Their parents may have done as much as they could to “tame” what they felt to be excess energy or aggression. In other words, they know all about conflict and blockages, so that when they are faced with a challenge or a roadblock, they don’t run away from it or hide under the covers feeling sorry for themselves. They meet challenges head-on.Sun opposition Mars people are more confrontational and argumentative than active. In youth, they might feel that they often face anger from others. They might see the Mars energy as coming from the outside. If and when they face the fact that the aggression is actually a part of their own personalities, they are more equipped to direct the competitive energy into productive avenues.Some Famous people with Sun square or opposition Mars: Jennifer Aniston (Sun square Mars and Neptune in fixed signs), Bob Dylan, Madonna, Muhammad Ali (square), Anne Heche (opposition), Jim Morrison (opposition).Note: The square, semi-square, sesquiquadrate, and opposition are also called “hard”, “challenging”, or “inharmonious” aspects.Sun in hard aspect to Mars: In this life you are learning to embody and express the energies of the warrior; courage, action, forcefulness, the ability to fight for what you want and need. However, these positive qualities can quickly degenerate into unnecessary and excessive aggression, discordant relationships, even violence. Your tendency to be impatient and hot headed, and to see everyone as a potential competitor or rival, may draw out the anger and combativeness in other people. Your challenge is to learn to use your overabundant energy in productive, or at least not destructive, action. — Interpretation from the Karmic Insight report.Sun square Mars: Sun/Mars aspects enhance your courage, assertiveness, leadership, independence, and love of power. You seek an exciting career that will allow expression of your natural enthusiasm, energy, entrepreneurial drive, and crusading spirit. When you stand up for your beliefs and values, you inspire others to follow your lead. You like being in charge and would probably feel stifled in a routine job or a subordinate position. You enjoy adventure and competition, and may be interested in Mars-ruled careers like the police, detective work, the military, politics, sports, debating, engineering, construction, haircutting, or any field that uses sharp instruments. If you do not learn to control your impulsivity and restlessness, you may be prone to headaches, nervousness, irritability, angry outbursts, accidents, or problems with the law. The Rambo movie character would have this aspect in his chart. — Interpretation from our Career Report.Sun square Mars: This is a highly emotional and fiery tempered child. The child will probably be very self-assertive not to mention argumentative. So a few lessons in toeing the line will be necessary. Kids with this aspect are often too quick to pick up a challenge even when none was intended. They must learn to calm down and not be quite so hasty. Training this child to take full responsibility from an early age, without attaching guilt, is by far the best approach. Sometimes these kids may not even recognize the effect their nature has on others, so they will be genuinely confused at the reactions an outburst may cause. The poor kid may stir people without even knowing it, by tone of voice, body language, or by not saying anything. But most importantly, put some effort into allowing this child to recognize the sheer potency of this powerful energy. Help him/her to utilize it thoroughly. The child must learn to bow out now and again – it is not always possible to run the show. Being the most dogmatic, vocal, and aggressive does not necessarily make for the best leader.Often there will be a quick temper that flares suddenly. The big lesson is to make this child responsible for any outbursts rather than reacting or maybe turning a blind eye for the sake of peace. There could be a good reason for such anger. Encourage a positive discussion making this a part of the training and guidance needed for a calmer, more in control, child. This aspect makes for some bad drivers. It also produces many good athletes. This is the real difference between using this energy constructively or destructively. — Interpretation for the KidZone report.Sun square Mars: There is a lack of harmony between your environment and your ambitions. What you need most is not always at hand to make the kind of progress you envision. Or, when the support is there, you can’t get the instruction or direction you require. You may have forgotten where it was you wanted to get to, sort of “all dressed up, but which way to go?” It could be historical, too, as simple as being torn between your mother and your father — a struggle between that which seeks to nurture you (and perhaps baby you) and your ambitions — a need to succeed and be all that you can be. — Interpretation from WinStar.Sun square Mars: (The Outraged) It is difficult for you to see a need for concession. You have no patience with another’s input when you are confident you are right. You may work harder than others and your ego demands you receive full credit. If denied or opposed, your fiery reactions may eclipse the rewards you have earned. By learning that compromise is the blending of positive energies, you employ the wisdom of a respected master instead of the mandates of a tyrant welcomed by none. — Interpretation from the Spirit Success report.Sun Conjunct Neptune
You may feel a need to identify with others, to really understand them, and get closer to them sympathetically. At the same time, you may feel a need to escape from the trials of the world and get into a world of your own. Escaping like this is okay as long as it is done in a positive way, say, through meditation. Escaping by means of alcohol or drugs could be dangerous. Even though you may be tempted, do not give in to a desire to avoid all duty and responsibility today. Do not run away. Face things squarely. Be on guard for trickery.
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.Mars Square Neptune
You may feel self-doubt and inadequacy today. You are probably extra sensitive today, so don't take offense where none is meant. If you are taking medication, remember that less is more because of your heightened sensitivity. Watch that people don't take advantage of you with a sob story or some deal that sounds too good to be true. Stay alert to people not telling you the whole story behind something. Take care of your physical self as your immune system might not be as strong today as usual.This is a challenging position, as you have difficulty trusting in your ability to go after things that you want in a direct manner. It may also be that you have difficulty pinpointing what it is that you want, or that part of you doesn’t feel you deserve it due to a basic lack of self-confidence. You fear rejection as well as criticism, and often use roundabout means to go after what you want.Your imagination is so powerful that it can be hard to trust your instincts. You easily imagine things going wrong, just as you easily fantasize about good things! Your desire nature is strong yet also very suggestible. You’re attracted to mysteries and intrigue. Sexual experimentation is likely, as you are forever addicted to sensuality and unusual or perhaps even what many would consider perverted sexual scenarios. However, your sensual appetite might be much like a bottomless pit, and you could find yourself forever in a state of wanting more, tiring of regular sexual scenarios quickly, and endlessly searching for the next sensation. If an addiction to fantasy is present, you can find yourself constantly chasing a new and more complicated fantasy. It is only when you get into touch with your heart and discover your true desires that you realize that sensations are merely sensations–not deeply satisfying or fulfilling.Fears of sexual inadequacy can be great with this position, and you may either deny yourself as a result, or overcompensate, seeking out experiences in which you are pretty much assured positive feedback. Some of you will experience both of these extremes in your lifetime. I have a client with this position who has a “trophy” wife, and she often denies him, and even belittles him, on a sexual level. He accepts this but “gets her back” behind her back, having serial affairs with women who are not considered as attractive for whatever reason and with whom he attempts to reclaim his power.One of the interesting things about this position is that if you are involved in immoral activities, guilt has a way of cropping up in unusual ways, and could lead you on a self-destructive path–and you might even know that you’re heading that way, yet you compulsively follow that path. Part of you might want to get caught! You might, for example, know in your mind that doing something is risky, yet you compulsively do it anyhow, perhaps even finding the challenge invigorating.Although you can be very creative at keeping your motives and personal agenda hidden–in fact, many of you seem on the surface of things to be quite gentle and yielding–you might eventually become resentful if you feel the need to resort to sneakiness in order to get what you want out of life. This is one of the things that has struck me as the most common characteristics of Mars-Neptune people. It’s not that they don’t get angry or show that anger. However, many will give in to another’s desires more often than not, yet become resentful of that person who seems to have control over them. Some will give up their power to a partner, for example, often taking the role as the one who gives in or gives up things in order to make the other happy. However, resentment for this builds, and while people with harmonious Mars-Neptune aspects more easily yield to others without anger for doing so, those with hard Mars-Neptune aspects are more likely to feel stepped upon, and to retaliate in covert ways. If you do feel resentment for giving up your power to someone else, learn to avoid giving it up unless you truly understand that you are doing it for yourself, and not for someone else. Resentments have a way of building and distorting themselves into ugly matter if you don’t deal with them properly and directly. You are often passive-aggressive in your approach to others, and this can cause a lot of problems in your life.You are usually found chasing a dream… or a fantasy. The former is probably the better path.Somehow, others are bound to eventually sense that you are not to be trusted, and this is often for good reason! You may not like to admit this to yourself, as you may have built excuses for your deceptive or sneaky behavior. However, adopting a more direct and assertive approach to life is something that you should be working towards. You will need to get over your feelings of guilt when you do adopt this approach. Learning to take responsibility for your actions, and to avoid blaming others for failures, is important.At your worst, you can be disorganized in your approach to life, easily procrastinating and lacking follow-through when you do begin a task. Some of the most important lessons you need to learn in life are self-control, self-assertion, and trust in yourself. At your best, you are a creative person with a powerful imagination and great stores of compassion.Your attempts to assert yourself often result in turmoil for you and/or for others. You tend to swing from one extreme to the other–asserting your needs powerfully at times and at others slipping into a state of total apathy. Passive-aggressiveness can be a problem in your life. 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 tend to either overestimate or underestimate your own power and abilities.You may lead a somewhat sexually repressed life although your sexual needs are significant. You could suffer from anxieties regarding your sexuality (probably carried over from parental conditioning around sex) and therefore find it difficult to find satisfaction in this area. However, this tends to change as you mature. As you overcome the urge to indulge in momentary physical pleasures, you build the capacity for spiritual ecstasy.You may be attracted to persons who are unavailable, perhaps because they are already married or simply hard to reach. Sometimes you find it more convenient to see your lover as you wish her to be rather than as she really is. You may find that you lower your standards when choosing a lover and end up with someone who is interested in you primarily for sex, or that the relationship is largely unfulfilling. Disappointments in love may be frequent, although this is also something that improves with age! You are an extremely imaginative lover, and you frequently engage in fanciful and intricate fantasies. This may sometimes interfere with “real life”, but if you channel this energy well, it can most certainly improve your sex life. Your imagination is powerful, but it can also get the best of you. You may imagine complex scenarios and get yourself all riled up about what your partner may have done when she wasn’t around! — Interpretation from our LoveStyles Report.Some Famous People with the Mars in Hard Aspect to Neptune: Squares – Ben Affleck, James Barber, Erma Bombeck, Jimmy Buffet, Barbara Bush, Sandra Dee, Melissa Etheridge, Eddie Fisher, Jodie Foster, Conan O’Brien, Diana Ross, Rod Stewart, Andy Warhol, Sharon Tate. Oppositions – Paula Abdul, Alan Alda, Maya Angelou, Jim Bakker, Truman Capote, Johnny Cash, Rita Coolidge, Terry Fox, Katharine Hepburn, Tommy Hilfiger, Jimmy Hoffa, Steve McQueen, Joe Namath, Burt Reynolds, George Segal, Elizabeth Taylor, Alicia Witt, Tiger Woods.Notes about Transits
Greetings, dear star-gazers! The cosmos are feeling as stable as a TARDIS in flight, with the solar kp index remaining quiet and retrograde effects unchanged. However, don't let that fool you into thinking that everything is as straightforward as a sonic screwdriver. The solar wind speed is currently above average, which means that retrograde effects are moderately increased. So, keep your wits about you, my friends! The waning gibbous moon is currently parked in Scorpio at an especially precise 29 degrees, 32' 43". It's like the universe is using a sonic screwdriver to focus all its energy on this particular cosmic moment. But fear not, fellow time travelers, change is coming. The moon will soon switch gears and shift from Scorpio to Sagittarius in the next 24 hours. It's like a regeneration for the moon! Remember, my dear astro-nerds, just because things seem calm on the surface doesn't mean that there isn't a lot happening behind the scenes. Keep your eyes peeled for any signs of cosmic mischief. And as always, #dontblink, #keepcalmandcarryon, and #allonso!
