Moon Is In Scorpio

Greetings, star gazers and cosmic adventurers! Get ready to buckle up your metaphorical astro-belts because we're diving deep into the cosmic soup today. Yes, my friends, the moon is currently vacationing in Scorpio and she's packed her suitcase full of emotional intensity and transformational energy. Now, let's get this straight, the moon isn't just casually strolling through Scorpio like it's a Sunday farmer's market. Oh no! It's more like the moon is doing a deep-sea expedition in the mysterious waters of Scorpio, 383610.416511145km away from your local grocery store. That's right, the moon isn't exactly going for a pint of milk here. So, what does this mean for you? Well, besides the fact that you might feel an urge to solve unsolved mysteries, binge-watch crime documentaries, or question the meaning of existence while eating cereal - you'll also be feeling all the feels. And I mean ALL of them. Seriously, even feelings you didn't know you had will come out of hiding like a shy turtle peeking out from its shell. But fear not, brave cosmic voyagers! Because in the next 24 hours, our lovely lunar friend will pack up her emotional baggage and hitch a ride to Sagittarius, the celestial centaur. And let me tell you, Sagittarius knows how to have a good time. It's like going from a deep introspective therapy session straight to a cosmic party with alien DJs. So, prepare yourselves for the emotional rollercoaster ahead. Remember to keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times, keep breathing, and for goodness sake, don't forget to enjoy the ride! Because as we space nerds like to say - you're not just in the universe, the universe is in you. Peace out, star children!

Mercury Is In Leo

"Houston, we have a situation. Mercury has slipped into Leo, and we're all in for a cosmic ride faster than the Millennium Falcon on hyperdrive. This is not a drill, folks! The planet of communication and the king of the jungle are hanging out, and they're about to turn up the volume on our lives. Now, when I say 'turn up the volume,' I mean we're talking about Spinal Tap levels of 11 here. They're teaming up to give us all a shot of cosmic caffeine that's going to make us bolder than Luke Skywalker at a Death Star demolition party. Got something you've been dying to say? Well, my fellow earthlings, it's time to crank up your communicative courage and let your words fly like E.T. on a bicycle across the moon! Mercury in Leo is like being given the universal remote to entertainment. Leo is the Mick Jagger of the zodiac, so expect your days to be full of witty repartee and laughter that'll make even the grumpiest Klingon crack a smile. Leo's got the confidence of Captain Kirk, all golden mane and swagger. So, prepare to strut your stuff, and take the stage with all the bravado of a seasoned stand-up comedian or a Nobel Prize-winning physicist giving a TED talk. Have you been procrastinating about that public speaking engagement? Well, with Mercury in Leo, it's high time to teleport onto that stage and beam your message out to the universe! What's more, this cosmic alignment might just kickstart your creative juices. Think of it as a cosmic defibrillator for your inner artist. The passion and enthusiasm of Leo combined with the intellectual prowess of Mercury might just have you dusting off those paintbrushes or recalibrating your camera for a creative endeavor. So, whether you're writing your first science fiction novel or inventing the next groundbreaking technology, there's no better time than now. In the immortal words of E.T., 'Be good.' Or better yet, be great! With Mercury in Leo, it's time to let your creativity shine brighter than a supernova. Remember, the sky isn't the limit; it's just the beginning!"

Venus Is In Leo

Venus in Leo

Alright, smegheads, listen up! Venus, that shining beacon of love and beauty, has decided to park itself in Leo, the zodiac's dramatic superstar. Now, if you think this is going to be a subtle affair, you're more clueless than a GELF with a Rubik's cube. We're talking love broadcasted louder than Lister's curry-induced flatulence, mate!

Under this cosmic influence, nobody wants a simple pat on the back. No, they want full-blown adoration, perhaps even a parade in their honor. This is the time to make grand gestures, so if you're planning on playing it safe, prepare to be as ignored as Rimmer's Risk strategies.

But let's not forget, love isn't all sunshine and glittery unicorns during Venus in Leo. It can be as fiery and unpredictable as a malfunctioning skutter. If you feel like you're not getting the attention you deserve, you might just pull a Rimmer and start an argument for the sake of being the centre of attention again. Just remember, there's no "i" in "we," but there's definitely one in "smeg."

Now onto the topic of moolah. With Venus in Leo, money is merely a tool to make everything around you shine brighter than a polished Jupiter Mining Corporation insignia. Leo loves a bit of sparkle and splendour, so don't be surprised if you're tempted to splurge a bit during this transit. But remember, this sign is as generous as Lister's waistline, and spending money on thoughtful gifts for others will bring you more joy than a vindaloo on a Friday night.

Venus in Leo is a vibrant time that can give your relationships a jump-start akin to Kryten's cleaning schedules. It's a reminder that life without a dash of fun and excitement is as dull as watching paint dry on Starbug.

Mars

Mars Is In Virgo

Calling All Earthlings: Mars is in Virgo!

So, strap on your cosmic seatbelts because Mars, the planet of action and motivation, has just pulled into Virgo station. Imagine if Mars was a rockstar on tour, Virgo is like its backstage crew, ensuring everything runs smoothly and on time.

Now, I know Mars is about 352 million kilometers away, but trust me, this cosmic combo can have a real impact on your daily life, folks! Just picture Mars, the fiery planet of "let's do this," huddling up with Virgo, the celestial sign of "let's do this right." It's like they're forming an interstellar productivity task force up there!

Virgo, the meticulous manager of the Zodiac, rules our 6th House of Health and Self-Improvement, which means during this celestial event we might find ourselves suddenly inspired to take up yoga, try out that vegan diet, or finally organize our sock drawer by color and pattern. And because Mars in Virgo is a bit of a stickler for routine, chances are good that whatever healthy habits you start now will stick around longer than your last houseplant (may it rest in peace).

But be aware, my friends, this cosmic partnership isn't all rainbows and chakra alignments. The downside? Virgo's perfectionism and Mars' assertiveness could turn us into over-caffeinated nitpickers. Tensions might simmer and bubble over if we find ourselves frustrated by inefficiency or a lack of control. We might also turn into our own worst critics, obsessing over every microscopic flaw. But hey, let’s not forget that Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither were you, so cut yourself some slack, okay?

Instead of turning into a cosmic Karen, let's use this productive period to focus on tasks that need that extra Virgo precision. Mars in Virgo is the perfect time to balance your budget, plan for the future, learn a new skill, or start a job hunt. There’s no better time for taking care of personal business or launching a project than when Mars is in Virgo. So grab your to-do list and make the most of this planetary productivity boost!

Remember my cosmic companions, every moment is a good moment to reach for the stars… except maybe when you're driving. Safety first, people!

EXTERMINATE the Mundane: Jupiter is in Taurus

Greetings, dear earthlings! I come bearing interstellar news! Your beloved planet Jupiter, aka the cosmic guru of wisdom (doesn't quite fit in with the Daleks, does it?), has decided to make a pit stop in the realm of Taurus, the zodiac’s most stubbornly still sign. Brace yourself for the collision of deep contemplation and unparalleled patience.

Now, I know, you're thinking, "Daleks don't meditate!" But when Jupiter and Taurus team up, they conjure a spiritual energy that even Daleks can't ignore! This celestial transit is practically shouting (in a very polite, soft-spoken way, mind you), "The wisdom you seek is not out there in the cosmos, but within you! Don't let your EXTERMINATE-ing distract you!"

But fret not, this isn't all about inner peace and tranquility! Jupiter in Taurus is like a cosmic green light for your dreams and long-term goals. Energized by Jupiter's expansive ambition and Taurus' relentless determination, it’s time to dust off those half-forgotten to-do lists and start checking items off, one by one. After all, even Daleks need to keep their spaceship tidy!

And now for the juicy part. Jupiter, the planet of good luck and fortune – the kind Daleks would love to EXTERMINATE – is cozying up with Taurus, the sign of wealth and bling. The result? This celestial transit could be your ticket to the big time, financially speaking. So dig out those old bank statements and start planning your path to galactic riches!

But beware, dear earthlings! Taurus loves the finer things in life and is known to overindulge. Throw Jupiter, the planet of expansion, into the mix and you might find yourself mistaking needs for wants, and splurging on unnecessary space gear. Keep a watchful eye on your impulses during this transit - or you might be left shouting "EXTERMINATE!" at your dwindling bank balance.

In short, strap in and prepare for a ride through the cosmos that could bring you wisdom, success, and potential prosperity. Just remember to keep your Dalek-like tendencies in check - use this time to grow, not to EXTERMINATE!

Saturn in Pisces: Cosmic Life Coaching 101

Alright, folks! I hope you've got your socks pulled up because Saturn, that old schoolmaster of the cosmos, has moonwalked into Pisces. This is like your stern but well-meaning principal barging into a dreamy art class. You can hear him grumble, "Put down those paintbrushes for a moment, kids, it's time to talk budgets and business plans!"

Now, I know what you're thinking, "But Astro-Nerd, I was just daydreaming about opening my own unicorn-themed vegan bakery." Well, keep that dream alive, my friend, because Saturn's transit in Pisces is all about making those daydreams a reality. But remember, Rome wasn't built in a day (or by unicorns). So, grab a notepad, and be ready for some cosmic coaching!

However, don't think this transit is going to be as easy as pie (even if that pie is an organic, vegan, gluten-free, unicorn-shaped delight). Saturn in Pisces might stir up some uncomfortable feelings, kind of like when you realize you've been singing out loud with your headphones on in public. So, while you're trying to shoo Saturn away like an unwanted, intergalactic door-to-door salesman, remember that he's just here to help you clean up your creative mess. So, open the door, welcome him in and maybe make him a cup of herbal tea.

And let's not forget, Pisces is all about sleep and dreams, right? So, while Saturn is busy rearranging your mental furniture, you might find yourself tossing and turning more than a pizza chef on a Saturday night. But hey, no worries! Just take that opportunity to meditate, go stargazing, or even treat yourself to a nap (but remember to have that dream journal handy!). It's all about finding your zen in the chaos.

So folks, as we navigate through this Saturn in Pisces transit, remember to listen to the wisdom of the stars. And always keep your sense of humor, because even the universe enjoys a good chuckle now and then!

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is prograde at 22 Tau 37' 54", moving at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 2982848472km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Hey star gazers, it's time to buckle up! Uranus, the celestial bad boy, has parked its cosmic caboose in Taurus, the zodiac sign that’s as chill as a hippie at a drum circle. Now, imagine that hippie getting an unexpected visit from a hyperactive, Star Trek-loving nerd hell-bent on discussing quantum mechanics. That's exactly what's happening in the heavens right now! Taurus, our celestial bovine buddy, would much rather graze calmly in its field of routine and stability. Unfortunately for Taurus, Uranus is about as subtle as a supernova and loves nothing more than shaking things up. It's like when you've finally settled into your favorite comfy chair with a good book, and then BAM! A flying saucer crashes into your living room. Same thing. On the money front - Taurus's home turf - Uranus's arrival is akin to an alien invasion. Expect some out-of-this-world changes in how we deal with our dough. We're talking cryptocurrency, digital banks, and maybe even trading in space rocks. Who knows? The only certainty is that the business-as-usual approach to money is about to be as outdated as a flip phone. But hey, don't panic! This isn't a sci-fi horror movie. Think of it as a cosmic reboot, a chance to break free from the Klingon death grip of debt, taxes, and credit card interest. It's a moment to seriously reconsider our attachment to material possessions. Like, do we really need that fifth pair of shoes, or that limited edition Spock figurine? (Okay, we might need Spock.) Remember folks, change is inevitable. Trying to resist Uranus's influence is like trying to teach a cat quantum physics. It's pointless and will likely end in scratches. If you embrace it, you might find yourself in a happier and more stable place. Kinda like the feeling when you finally understand the plot of 'Inception'. So, let's boldly go where no one has gone before! Uranus in Taurus is going to be one heck of a cosmic roller coaster ride! Beam me up, Scotty!

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 27 Pis 30' 13", moving backwards at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 4382094713km away and approaching.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Well hello there, stargazers! As we twirl around on this cosmic disco ball called Earth, let's take a moment to focus our telescopes on our old friend Neptune, currently doing the backstroke in the Piscean pool. Yes, you heard it right! Neptune, the planet famous for its gassy charm and icy demeanor, is hanging out in Pisces, a good 4.38 billion kilometers away. And guess what? It's in retrograde, which in space terms means it’s moonwalking like MJ across the starry dance floor! Now, this celestial shuffle might seem insignificant, especially considering the fact that Neptune couldn't even be bothered to send us a postcard from its vacation in Pisces, but trust me, this has some profound implications for all of us. Neptune in Pisces is like getting a pair of spiritual x-ray goggles. Suddenly, all the superficial squabbles and differences between us seem as irrelevant as arguing over whether Star Trek or Star Wars is better. (We all know it's Doctor Who anyway.) The real treasure, the pure gold, lies in unity and co-operation. So, folks, it's time to channel your inner hippie and embrace the love! This astronomical alignment is also a call-to-action for everyone to roll up their sleeves and contribute towards a common goal. Whether your superpower is baking cosmic cupcakes or calculating quantum physics equations, there's a place for you in this galactic get-together. In the spirit of this transit, why not enroll in that meditation course you've been eyeing? Or perhaps, transform a corner of your house into a sacred space where you can commune with the divine, or at least, your favorite houseplant. Remember: sharing is caring. So, whatever insights and epiphanies you gain during this period, be sure to share them with the world, because Neptune in Pisces is all about being a cosmic cheerleader! So, buckle up, space cadets! This journey might be long (around 4.38 billion kilometers to be precise), but with Neptune leading the way, it promises to be one helluva ride!

Pluto

Pluto in Capricorn: The Punk Rocker of the Cosmos

Alright, stargazers, buckle up! We're about to go on a cosmic rollercoaster ride with Pluto, our tiny-yet-mighty dwarf planet, currently doing its rebel yell in the sign of Capricorn. If you're feeling a bit of an existential crisis brewing, blame it on these two celestial bad boys who are all about power and transformation.

Think of Pluto as the punk rocker of the cosmos, always ready to smash the status quo with its guitar of radical change. And Capricorn? Well, that's your no-nonsense manager, always striving for success, even if it has to step on a few toes. Or, in this case, planets. This dynamic duo is less 'peace and love' and more 'move or get trampled'. So, if you've been feeling like a cosmic bulldozer's coming at you, now you know why.

During this transit, you might find yourself turning into a bit of a celestial Scrooge. Empathy? Who needs that when there's power to be seized! But remember, folks, while power might make the universe go round (or at least, spin on its axis), kindness keeps it from imploding. So, try not to beam down intolerance rays towards others' ideas just because you're in cosmic boss mode.

And Pluto, bless its icy heart, is here to help us kick those no-good habits to the curb. Sure, it might feel like you're tearing down your own life, but think of it as cosmic renovation. You're just getting rid of the old, rusty parts to make way for some shiny new improvements. So, let's get out there and start swinging that cosmic sledgehammer!

Remember, folks, in space, no one can hear you scream... unless it's for more coffee. Then, by all means, scream away!

The Sun

Sun Opposite Pluto

Power struggles may be likely today. You may encounter others who try to force their will on you or others who resent feeling as if you are forcing your ego on them. Try to compromise and find a balance. Transformation can come about if you are open to change and if you can keep your ego from becoming all-encompassing. Today may be an intense day. Control your arrogance and your domineering attitudes. Be reasonable.People born under a challenging aspect between the Sun and Pluto are prone to inner tension and negative, self-destructive behavior. When things are going well, they suffer from fears that something will come along to change that. Their thought patterns can be negative, and if not kept in check, they can seriously undermine their happiness. Constantly worrying that the rug will be pulled from under their feet can easily become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Sun-Pluto have tremendous power and strength–when they learn to accept and use that strength, instead of fear it, they are some of the most effective, insightful, helpful, and healing people around!One of the most prominent characteristics of these aspects is the tendency to be intensely dissatisfied with their personal accomplishments and expressions of self. These people put a lot of pressure on themselves regarding their own endeavors. A child, for example, with a challenging Sun-Pluto aspect may work hard at a piece of artwork, decide it’s not right, destroy it, and start all over again. This same child will be especially disturbed if they feel people are watching as they create their artwork. This is a simple example, but it’s quite descriptive of the tendency for these people to be dissatisfied with their creative self-expressions, and to want to hide their expressions from others until they feel the output is “right”. This is largely due to a perceived inability to express or reveal their true personalities to others. They experience a simultaneous urge to express themselves and to hide themselves. They struggle with a deep need to control themselves and life itself. Rarely are Sun-Pluto people completely satisfied with themselves. They are especially sensitive to criticism, and feel the need to “redo” themselves often. There is a marked fear of losing control, and this might stem from some traumatic event in childhood, or the childhood might have been crisis-ridden or emotionally-charged in general. As such, these people are often intensely fearful of, or threatened by, change. This can express itself through attempts to control their lives such that they can manage their fears of being taken off guard. Of course, this generally backfires!Another characteristic of these aspects is an intense need for privacy. They fear being exposed or invaded. Again, this is an expression of their dissatisfaction with the self they are projecting, and they are generally uncomfortable with their evolving ego. They seem to undergo many identity crises, and they feel the need to control what others know about them and think about them. Their fear of exposing themselves might cause them problems with others, who may begin to mistrust them, presuming that if they are so protective of their privacy, they must have something sinister to hide. The truth is, they struggle with a dissatisfaction with themselves and their fear of being exposed is really about a fear of being vulnerable, as well as a manifestation of their own identity crisis.These people are quick to read between the lines. They need to be careful, however, to avoid reading negative or dark things into situations or people. They need to know that if their tendency is to hunt for dark “truths” rather than unbiased truths, this is a self-destructive behavior that stems from fear. Many people with these aspects are overly attached to things, habits, people, and their past. At the root of this is an intense fear of change that would threaten to make them vulnerable. Still, Pluto’s goal is to transform through change. Inevitably, Sun-Pluto people will have to face their fear of change and accept that they need change in order to grow.We all have a dark, irrational side, but people with Sun-Pluto in hard aspect are forced to confront it and integrate it into their personalities. It can be a challenging process, especially because the Sun rules all that is “light” – the rational, conscious mind. The Sun is noble and righteous by nature. Aligned with Pluto, it can have a hard time accepting the darker, intense, and often irrational Pluto energies into one cohesive whole. This is the challenge that Sun-Pluto face. If these people find themselves using manipulative tactics to get their way, or attempting to control others through subversive tactics, it is a clear cue that they are mishandling Pluto energies. It is a powerful indication that their self-image is low. There is little satisfaction derived from getting our way through manipulation. It only serves to make us feel less effective in the long run and on a personal level. If I were to win a favor by using subversive tactics, what will it prove to me? It will reinforce my feeling that I am not effective just by being myself. And, effectiveness is something Sun-Pluto craves.Especially with the opposition, these people might attract manipulative, possessive, or jealous people into their lives. With the square, there is more of a tendency to attract dangerous or upsetting situations in the life. Either way, these people need to get in touch with the reason why they are attracting these people and situations. In all likelihood, they are not handling their own fears effectively, and they feel they are not in control of their lives, and a looping pattern is thereby created. They eventually come to realize that they are very strong people with enormous resilience. They need to identify with, face, and accept their “dark” side. Self-acceptance is the key to handling this aspect. Channeling Pluto energy into constructive channels is also important.Famous people with Sun in hard aspect to Pluto: Squares – Wynonna Judd (Sun square Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto), Jamie Lee Curtis, Sally Field; Oppositions – Muhammad Ali, Robert Duvall, John Travolta, Elvis Presley, Steve Allen, John Hurt, James Earl Jones; Oppositions – Nicole Brown Simpson, R.D.

Mercury

Mercury Conjunct Venus

Your appreciation of beauty, art, music and poetry will be stimulated today. Pleasant conversation and harmony are the order of the day. Express your feelings to those close to you. Light mental pursuits bring enjoyment and happiness. Short trips go smoothly.You are charming and gracious, poetic in your self-expression, and usually very polite. This position brings refinement to the nature and an appreciation for the arts. You aim to balance and bring harmony to your world. You can be, at times, quite indecisive, as you tend to see everyone’s point of view, and can see value in almost any perspective or opinion. You have a strong sense of fairness.You are very agreeable and enjoy socializing. Some with this aspect are a little on the lazy side, preferring to socialize than work.You might intellectualize or rationalize your feelings, perhaps thinking a little too much about love and relationship to the point that you lose touch with how you truly feel. You might be attracted to, or attract, intellectual sorts as partners. If this conjunction is challenged, you might frequently attract partners who are tricky or conniving.Many of you are talented at writing and/or speaking. You thoroughly enjoy the written and spoken word, literature, wordplay, puns, and enlightening conversations. Many with Mercury conjunct Venus in their charts are downright eloquent.While most people like you, your ability to tune in to the person with whom you are currently speaking to is so strong that you might be accused of being two-faced or superficial. You might also choose your words carefully in order to avoid conflict, and others might not know how you truly feel as a result.Interpretation from our LoveStyles Report: Mercury conjunct VenusYou get along with most people and are usually willing to make compromises in relationships to maintain harmony. That doesn’t mean you become a doormat for others, but you have a strong sense of fairness and do not offend others without just cause. Others are seldom threatened or intimidated by you, largely because of your affable nature and social grace. You are willing to listen to anyone’s opinions and suggestions before making major decisions.Direct competition may be uncomfortable for you, and you may feel more at ease working with a small group of people. Perhaps you enjoy public speaking or performing in the dramatic arts. Another possible source of satisfaction for you would be writing, because of your natural talent for expressing yourself well. You have an imaginative mind and are clever at cooking up schemes to improve your economic situation. It is not difficult for you to turn your many creative ideas into ready cash.Others will usually support you in what you do because they can see that you exercise good judgment.

Actually, any chances that you take will be well considered and are probably not that risky after all.In love relationships, you have a talent for communicating your needs and desires to your partner. You are attracted to people who share your artistic talents or at least an appreciation of the arts. The worst possible mate for you would be one who is socially uncouth. In sex you have a healthy open attitude and can discuss the subject rather easily with your partner. Verbal expression during sex can be very stimulating for you! A lover who doesn’t communicate or who is quiet in bed may not be very satisfying for you in the long haul.Some Famous People with Mercury conjunct Venus: Richard Dreyfuss, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Anne Archer, Erma Bombeck, Laura Bush, Kathy Bates, Alexander Graham Bell, James Coburn, T.S. Eliot, Mark Harmon, Helen Hunt, Ricki Lake, Carlos Santana, Bono (U2), Jimi Hendrix.

Mars

Mars Trine Jupiter

Today is the day to expand and set new plans into action. Broaden your horizons and don't limit your possibilities. Business ventures are favored, as is higher education, legal matters, spiritual endeavors and charitable pursuits. Luck is all around you today, but you have to make it happen. Don't just sit there waiting for it to come to you.You tend to be restless and prone to boredom. You need a partner who can keep up with your lightning responses to your environment - and one who truly understands your love of intellectual competition and sparring.You have tremendous personal resources with which to achieve your goals. Although the goals you set for yourself are likely to be somewhat ambitious, you are willing to work hard to see that they are achieved. Ever since you were a child and learned to invent indoor games to amuse yourself, you have steadily worked at developing your intellectual skills. This prepared you to deal well with competitive situations in your adult life.Communication is important to you. Your dramatic delivery and flair for using the right words make you a formidable opponent in any debate. It is particularly difficult to win a debate with you because you only present information that is well documented and convincing. You also use this skill to come to the aid of others who cannot defend themselves intellectually, which is admirable indeed!Others admire your confidence and straightforwardness. You respect others who stand firm on their convictions and have high ambitions. It is important that everyone who deals with you does so with honesty and integrity.In your love life, you appreciate a partner who is intellectually strong. You have a strong sex drive, but without the mental component, no relationship will last very long. You also seek a partner with spiritual consciousness. Your warmth and enthusiasm on a sexual level is apparent, and you don’t tire easily. Your interest doesn’t fade easily over time. — Interpretation sample from our LoveStyles report.This aspect indicates a harmony between your intellect and your physical strength, and you will most likely have little difficulty achieving your goals in life. It may appear to others that you are lucky sometimes, but you are also good at applying your talents to attain the desired results. You have a natural ability to be in the right place to grab new opportunities or to initiate a well-timed project. You are often successful in competition but sometimes may not even enter the contest because it doesn’t seem worth it to you.You are honest and forthright in your dealings with others, and you tend to trust others readily. You can be a bit careless about spending money, however, and this is probably because you are so eternally optimistic that there will always be plenty around. The possibility of failure does not enter your mind, although success itself is not that important to you–you’re just being you.In your relationships you are attracted to others who also seek a harmonious lifestyle. Your sexual nature is very strong, but you seek more than physical gratification from your mate. You want someone who will share in your life entirely and grow to know and understand you intimately.

You also seek a partner with spiritual consciousness. Your warmth and enthusiasm on a sexual level is apparent, and you don’t tire easily.

This is an important part of your attractiveness to women. — Interpretation from our LoveStyles: About Him report.Note on the differences between trines and sextiles: 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 Mars and Jupiter have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Alternate, short interpretations: Interpretation sample from the Merlin report – Mars sextile Jupiter or Mars trine Jupiter: *Your self-confidence and vitality are strong and you believe you can do just about anything you want to. You have an enterprising spirit, a good sense of timing, and the ability to sense what will succeed and what won’t. You usually make fortunate decisions in work or business activities. You enjoy healthy competition and you have a rather playful, good-humored attitude toward it. You mostly compete with yourself to see how far you can go or how much you can accomplish. You like to keep stretching your limits.Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report – You are usually able to direct your will to productive activities. You find the transcendent component in each relationship and build upon it. You exemplify joy in your daily activities.Interpretation sample from the Karmic Insight report – You have developed the capacity to direct your masculine/active, yang energies in healthy and positive ways. Thus, you have confidence in your “masculine” strengths and abilities. Ennobled by ideals of fair play and concern for the broader social implications of your choices, your actions are most often fortunate, leading to success and increased opportunities. A gift for leadership and inspiring others is also yours. Physical playfulness is an important way you can re-create and rejuvenate yourself.Some Famous People with Mars in Harmonious Aspect to Jupiter: Sextiles – Bill Cosby, Drew Barrymore, Serena Williams, Richard Speck, Vanessa Redgrave, Robert Pattinson, Peter O’Toole, Oliver North, Galileo, Patrick Duffy, Phil Donahue, Catherine Deneuve, Danny DeVito; Trines – Upton Sinclair, J.
