Solar activity reached moderate levels. Region 3451 (N17W75, Eki/Beta-Gamma) continued its journey towards the western limb, becoming too foreshortened for proper classification and analysis, and was the culprit of an M1.6 flare at 10/0209 UTC. Region 3452 (N09W80, Axx/Alpha) exhibited substantial decay losing all but its leading spot and produced an M2.3 flare at 10/1217 UTC, which was the largest of the period. Region 3460 (S10W06, Dai/Beta-Gamma-Delta) grew slightly in overall length and maintained a weak Delta spot in the northern portion of its trailing spots. Although, this feature seemed to be in decay by the periods end. Region 3463 (S17E47, Cao/Beta) grew as well as it developed trailing spots, but was relatively quiet. Region 3464 (N04E63, Cro/Beta) formed, was numbered and produced low-level C-class flares. The remaining regions were unremarkable.

The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently normal.

Solar wind parameters reflected nominal, ambient-like conditions. Total field ranged 0 to 5 nT, the Bz component was near neutral or northward, and solar wind speeds fell from 350 km/s to below 300 km/s over the course of the period.

There is a 25% chance of solar activity, with a 20% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.

Moon Is In Virgo

Well, buckle up stargazers because the Moon has swung by Virgo for a cosmic sleepover and it's no ordinary slumber party. Just like my aunt Gertrude's fruitcake, this celestial event is packed with all sorts of surprises. First off, let's talk distance. The Moon is 404838.568805296km away. I know, right? It's like trying to comprehend how many episodes of Star Trek there are. The point is, it's far - way further than that vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO grocery store down the road. Now, the Moon in Virgo brings a vibe that's kind of like a meticulous librarian meets Marie Kondo. It's all about getting your ducks in a row. No, not actual ducks. Unless you have actual ducks. Then yes, get them in a row. This is a time for decluttering - physically, mentally, and spiritually. Get rid of anything that doesn't "spark joy" in your life. That includes the leftover pizza from last week that's still in the fridge - it's not going to taste good, trust me on this one. The Moon in Virgo also brings a certain, shall we say, precision to our emotional world. And by precision, I mean borderline OCD. This isn't a bad thing, it just means you might find yourself alphabetizing your bookshelf or arranging your socks by color. Don't fight it. Embrace the madness. Lastly, the Moon in Virgo asks us to pay attention to the details. This might mean finally reading the user manual for your toaster, or realizing that your plant needs water, not just conversations about quantum physics. So take this time, my fellow celestial voyagers, to get your life in order. Besides, if you don't, who will? Your cat? I doubt it. They're probably too busy plotting world domination. Until next time, keep looking up and remember: even in the vastness of space, there's a place for you. Unless you're a Dalek. Then we might have some problems. Peace, love, and stardust, my friends!

Mercury

Mercury is in Libra

Mercury is prograde at 11 Lib 04' 22", moving at 1.77 degrees per day, and is 202012517km away and receding.

Mercury Is In Libra

Well, beep-boop-beep, stargazers! Mercury, that chatty little planet that rules over communication and travel, has sashayed into Libra, the zodiac's resident diplomat. So, what does this mean for you? Well, imagine R2-D2 trying to negotiate peace between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker -- comical, but not entirely impossible! You see, when Mercury is in Libra, it's a bit like C-3PO has taken over the controls of the Millennium Falcon - there's a lot of polite chatter, some back-and-forth bickering, and an overall goal of keeping the peace. It's like a cosmic United Nations meeting, but thankfully without the long speeches. The celestial energy now is all about balancing our communication. So, if you've been having a lightsaber duel with your words recently, it might be time to sheath that thing and extend an olive branch instead. But remember, nobody likes an overly enthusiastic Ewok, so don't sugar-coat things too much. This time, it's not about who shot first, but how well you can articulate your point of view. Just like any good Jedi, you need to understand the force (of your words) and control it wisely. After all, as Yoda said, "Wars not make one great." So, whether you're negotiating intergalactic treaties or just trying to decide who's turn it is to do the dishes, remember: this is the time for diplomatic conversation. Let's keep the TIE fighter battles to a minimum, folks. And if all else fails, just remember: The Force (of Mercury in Libra) is with you. Now go, and may the stars align in your favor!

Venus

Venus is in Virgo

Venus is prograde at 01 Vir 55' 02", moving at 0.88 degrees per day, and is 89552940km away and receding.

Venus Is In Virgo

Alright folks, strap on your lab goggles and dust off your pocket protectors, we're about to delve into the realm of cosmic love. Our lady Venus, currently 89500143.550522491km away (but who's counting, right?), has decided to take a little vacation in Virgo. Now, you may be asking, "what does this mean for my love life?" Well, my friend, think of this as the universe's way of telling you it's time for a romantic spring cleaning. Under Venus in Virgo, we start to view our relationships under a microscope, not just with a casual glance. For those happily entangled, it's like your love life suddenly got an appointment with a very meticulous dentist, who will floss between every nook and cranny of your relationship. It's time to ask yourself are you getting what you deserve from your beloved? Or are they just using you for your Netflix password? For the singles among us, this is a time when you'll start seeing red flags that you might have previously ignored. Like if your date spends more time talking to their pet rock than you. Venus in Virgo is practically screaming at you to stop texting that person who only replies with one-word answers, you know who you are! Now, a word of caution, this hyper-analytical phase may make us a bit more critical of our partners. Remember, it's not what you say but how you say it. Instead of saying "You never take out the trash", try "I've noticed the garbage has developed its own ecosystem, could you please throw it out?" And don't worry about passion taking a backseat during this transit. Just because we're swapping reckless abandon for careful consideration doesn't mean things are going to get boring. Think of it as the difference between fast food and a gourmet meal. With Venus in Virgo, we're all about quality over quantity, in every sense. So, in conclusion, while Venus vacations in Virgo, it's time to do a little cosmic Marie Kondo on your love life. Does this relationship bring you joy? If not, thank it for its service and let it go. Because, my dear Astro-nerds, you deserve nothing but the best!

Mars

Mars is in Libra

Mars will change from Libra to Scorpio in the next 24 hours.

Mars is prograde at 29 Lib 23' 19", moving at 0.67 degrees per day, and is 381235272km away and receding.

Mars Is In Libra

Mars in Libra: A Cosmic Cha-Cha

Alright, space cadets, buckle up because Mars is doing the cosmic cha-cha through Libra and it's going to be an interesting ride. Now, Mars – that's our astrology pal who rules motivation and drive – is currently hanging out in Libra, the sign associated with balance and partnerships. Think of this as the universe's way of putting a neon sign over your relationships, blinking "Service Required!".

Now, here's the funny thing: while Mars is usually the hot-headed warrior of the zodiac, its journey through Libra turns it into a peace-loving hippie. ‘I am just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood!’ kind of vibe. Mars in Libra is like trying to play chess on a seesaw – it’s all about balance, baby! But remember, avoiding confrontations doesn’t mean ignoring the elephant in the room.

If you've got issues brewing, this is the perfect time to address them - with a little bit of finesse and a lot of diplomacy, of course. More 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' and less 'Game of Thrones'. It's not about avoiding the dragon, it's about offering it a cup of tea and asking it politely to stop setting fire to your life.

And here's a curveball for you: Libra, the usually chillaxed peacekeeper of the zodiac, gets feisty under the influence of Mars. It's like watching your grandmother arm wrestle: unexpected, but surprisingly inspiring. This is the time to fight for what's fair, right and just. Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease!

But let’s be honest, indecision could become your new middle name during this transit. Mars wants to sprint, while Libra wants to stop and smell the roses, and you're stuck in the middle trying to decide if you should run or relax. Remember, as long as you're acting with love, intention, and fairness, you're doing the cosmic cha-cha right!

So, folks, put on your dancing shoes and get ready to groove with Mars in Libra. It's gonna be a wild ride!

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is retrograde at 13 Tau 25' 47", moving backwards at 0.11 degrees per day, and is 606297628km away and approaching.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Jupiter In Taurus - The 'Neo of The Matrix' Edition

Alright, listen up, space cowpokes! Jupiter's taking a cosmic vacation in the comfy recliner of Taurus, and it's about to get real cozy. Imagine Jupiter as Neo from The Matrix, doing its best Keanu Reeves impression, saying, "Whoa." It's like that, but with more cows and money.

Jupiter, our cosmic guru, is all about learning and wisdom, while Taurus is the zodiac's favorite comfy couch potato. It's like if Neo finally decided to take a break from fighting Agent Smith and just chill out for a bit. The kind of deep, existential wisdom we're talking about here isn't found in a dusty old tome or some ancient prophecy. It's right there in the remote control you've been sitting on. Spirituality isn't some far-off concept; it's as close as your next Netflix binge.

This Jupiter-Taurus soiree is also your golden ticket to start bulldozing towards those dreams. You know, the ones you've been putting off because you're too busy re-watching The Matrix for the 37th time? It’s like having Neo’s superhuman determination combined with Taurus’ stubbornness. Just remember, like Neo, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. Or in this case, the to-do lists. Lots and lots of to-do lists.

With Jupiter in Taurus, you might just find yourself swimming in a pool of dollar bills like Scrooge McDuck. Jupiter's the planet of good luck, and Taurus is basically the Bill Gates of the zodiac. So, if you play your cards right, you could be in for a cosmic windfall. Don't say I didn't warn you when you start finding coins in your couch cushions.

But hold up, space cadets! Taurus has a bit of a reputation for overindulging. It's like Neo at an all-you-can-eat buffet. So, while Jupiter might be whispering sweet nothings about endless pizza slices into your ear, remember to take it slow. Don’t go Matrix on your diet and start seeing everything as binary code. Enjoy the good things, but remember: balance is key. After all, even Neo had to learn how to dodge bullets before he could stop them.

Saturn

Saturn is in Pisces

Saturn is retrograde at 00 Pis 59' 54", moving backwards at 0.04 degrees per day, and is 1353712418km away and receding.

Saturn Is In Pisces

Hey there, cosmic voyagers! Buckle up and prepare for a wild, interstellar ride because Saturn is in Pisces. I know, I know... you're thinking, "Saturn? In Pisces? What's next, Pluto running a daycare?" Well, hold on to your space helmets because Saturn being some 1.35 billion kilometers away (yes, I googled that) and retrograde in the dreamy, watery world of Pisces is the equivalent of your strict high school principal showing up at your psychedelic Woodstock reunion. Sounds like a buzzkill, right? But here's where things get interesting! Saturn, the grandmaster of rules and regulations, is doing a cosmic cannonball into the ocean of your dreams. You know that crazy idea you had about opening an alien-themed coffee shop on Mars? Now might be the time to make a business plan. Or what about that novel you've been dreaming of writing where the hero is a quantum physicist with a love for disco music? This is the perfect time to get started! But beware, Saturn in Pisces isn't all rainbows and unicorn farts. The big, ringed planet can be a bit invasive, sorta like a nosy neighbor peering through your window. If you're not careful, you might find yourself building walls and hanging "No Trespassing" signs all over your dreamscape. The trick here, my star-seeking friends, is to roll out the welcome mat. Let Saturn in and listen to his sage (if somewhat stern) advice. He might actually help you turn that Martian coffee shop or disco-loving physicist into reality. Now, with all this energy focused on the realm of dreams, you might find it hard to catch those zzz's. Don't panic! This is the ideal time to explore inner calm. Meditate, take a moonlit walk, practice deep space breathing, or even indulge in a mid-afternoon interstellar siesta. And remember, keep a dream journal handy. Who knows, Saturn's visit might just inspire the next great sci-fi saga. So, embrace the cosmic chaos, my friends. After all, where would we be without a little stardust in our lives? May the stars guide you and may Saturn not leave too much of a mess in your subconscious. Catch you on the next orbit!

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is retrograde at 22 Tau 20' 34", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 2811967118km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Well, well, well, if it isn't Uranus, the cosmic rebel, shaking things up in the steadfast realm of Taurus. I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore, Toto! Now, don't go running for your lightsabers just yet, my star-crossed friends. Let's channel our inner Jedi and navigate these interstellar upheavals together. You see, Taurus is a bit like that lovable droid R2D2 - reliable, consistent, and a little wary of sudden changes. But with Uranus playing the role of the mischievous Ewok, well, let's just say things are about to get as turbulent as a ride on the Millennium Falcon. As Obi-Wan might say, "The Force is strong with this one!" And by "the Force," I mean money. With Uranus in Taurus, expect some major plot twists in the financial sector. We're talking revolutionary new currencies (Bitcoins from another galaxy, perhaps?), banking upheavals, and maybe even a Death Star-sized shake-up in real estate and stocks. But fear not, young Padawans, these changes aren't all doom and gloom. On a personal level, Uranus in Taurus is like Yoda encouraging us to 'unlearn what we have learned' about money and materialism. It's time to break free from the Darth Vader grip of debt, taxes, and credit card interest. So, if you find yourself feeling trapped in the Sarlacc pit of material possessions, remember: "In the end, cowards are those who follow the dark side." Embrace the change, trust in the Force...err Uranus, and soon you'll find yourself in a galaxy far, far better than before. May the Force (and Uranus in Taurus) be with you!

Neptune

Neptune is retrograde at 25 Pis 41' 15", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4335033314km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Neptune's Piscean Party

Alright, stardust-stuffed humans, it's time to talk about Neptune cozying up in Pisces. I know, right? It's like a cosmic pajama party, but instead of pillow fights and truth or dare, we're getting deep, dreamy vibes and a call to embrace our inner mystic. First off, let me science this up for you. Neptune is approximately 4,335,007,079.975973129km away (give or take a few millimeters - space GPS is still a work in progress). And it's currently doing the retrograde rumba, so things might feel a bit... topsy-turvy. Now, Neptune in Pisces is like having a philosopher living in your basement. You're getting all these profound insights about life, the universe, and whether pineapple really belongs on pizza (it's a divisive issue, folks). This celestial set-up is basically a green light for us to explore our emotions, connect with our spiritual side, and finally understand why we cry at those darn pet adoption commercials. It's about recognizing that we're all part of the cosmic soup, no matter how many croutons or bits of celery we might disagree with. So, what can you do with this ethereal energy? Well, it's a great time to take up yoga, start meditating, or redecorate your living room to resemble an ancient temple. Or, you know, just take some time to ponder the mysteries of the universe while you're waiting for your microwave popcorn to pop. And remember, folks, while Neptune might be billions of kilometers away, its influence is as close as your next thought, your next breath, or your next laugh at a really bad astrology joke. So, go out there, embrace the Neptune-in-Pisces energy, and let's all ride this cosmic wave together. Peace out, star-seekers!

Pluto Is In Capricorn

Pluto in Capricorn: A Cosmic Comedy

Greetings, earthlings! Try not to spill your kombucha, but Pluto, that celestial underdog we all know and love, is currently strutting its stuff in Capricorn. Now, if you're a hardcore science nerd like me, you might be nitpicking about whether Pluto is actually a planet or not. But hey, let's not get caught up in semantics, when there's cosmic insight to be had!

Pluto and Capricorn are like the Steve Jobs and Bill Gates of the universe - they're all about success, power, and a stubborn determination to get things done. They don’t just climb mountains, they move them. So, while Pluto is doing the cha-cha in the sign of the ambitious goat, you might find yourself being a tad bit... well, intolerant of others. "My way or the hyperlane," you might say. Consider this a cosmic heads up to not turn into a total space tyrant.

On the upside, Pluto, who I like to call the 'Cosmic Marie Kondo', wants us to declutter our lives from unnecessary negativity. It's like a celestial spring cleaning of the soul, with a dash of dynamite. So as you embark on your mission to boldly go where no one has gone before, remember to be deliberate in what you destroy. After all, even in the vast vacuum of space, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. And nobody wants to get hit by cosmic debris.

So, grab your telescopes and your sense of humor, because this transit is going to be one intergalactic ride. And remember, what happens in Capricorn, stays in Capricorn... unless it gets sucked into a black hole, of course. Peace out, fellow stargazers!

Venus

Venus Opposite Saturn

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

Mars

Mars Trine Saturn

You will have no problems today with work that is demanding or detailed. You are organized, deliberate, patient, exacting, attentive, and have plenty of stamina. This is a terrific day to do mundane, routine, or boring jobs as they won't seem quite so distasteful. Make the most of today and get plenty of things done.You know how to get to your goals in life by steady, patient, and persistent progress. You have good, practical overviews of the final result of your efforts. You are good at planning a strategy and sticking to it. You build your projects and your life with bedrock security in mind, with as little risk as possible. Discipline, patience, hard work, and the blessing of good judgment work together to form a picture that looks like “luck” to others. — Interpretation sample from the In Depth report.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 Saturn have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Mars sextile Saturn or Mars trine Saturn: *You possess the gifts of endurance and perseverance, the willingness to work hard and seriously to achieve your objectives. Once you decide you want something or make a commitment, you’ll do it “even if it takes forever”. Self-discipline is natural to you and you instinctively realize that any creative achievement is “10% inspiration, 90% perspiration”. You choose practical, realistic goals and pursue them step-by-step in a well-planned, orderly way. You like to concentrate on one thing at a time and do a thorough job. You enjoy working in solitude, and often feel your best work is done when you are alone.#You may find that you go from one transformational situation to another, never really settling into any one thing. Yet you have the endurance necessary for the long haul.Some Famous People with Mars in Harmonious Aspect to Saturn: Sextiles – Thomas Edison, Alfred Adler, Galileo, Camilla Parker Bowles, Freddie Prinze, Corbin Bernsen, Catherine the Great, Omar Sharif, Ben Stiller, Barbara Walters; Trines – Denzel Washington, Rudolph Steiner, Josef Stalin, Yves Saint Laurent, Emily Post, Marilyn Monroe, Sinclair Lewis, David Letterman, Annie Lennox, Leonardo Da Vinci, Andy Griffith, Dwight Eisenhower, Eric Clapton, Kevin Butler, Kareem Abdul Jabar.

Mars

Mars Square Pluto

This is the time where others might impose their will on you or you on them. Your ambition is high, as is that of others. This could lead to head-butting instead of cooperation. You can accomplish a lot today, but do not do so by running roughshod over the feelings or ideas of others. Today is not the day to lock horns with the boss or those in authority. Cool your jets. How you handle opposition from others today will go a long way in determining just how successful your actions will be. Keep your nose clean today and avoid all underhanded tactics. Remember, you will reap what you sow. Respect the rights and ideas of others. Try to see things their way and give them the benefit of the doubt.This is a powerful aspect in a natal chart suggesting, in your life time, you very often see extremes of behavior and experiences, or go through crises more than most. You may be no stranger to violence or abuse. You learn through your experiences self-control and self-awareness so that you are better equipped to deal with these extremes. You are wonderful to have around in times of crises, as you can quickly take the lead and you can be undaunted when it comes to defending or helping those you love. Your desires are deep, intense, and sometimes troubling. At times, you seem to attract strong opposition, perhaps because your own nature is rather provocative. You are a natural-born fighter. You can also be quite driven to find answers, and you make a good psychologist, analyst, and investigator. Compulsive behaviors should be watched carefully, as they can consume you and lead you to risky endeavors and difficult scenarios. There can be a strong desire to be in control. You have a tendency to impose your will upon others, which can cause severe problems for yourself when they react in self-defense. You have a hair-trigger temper and may even resort to verbal or physical abuse when upset. Learning to react to unpleasant circumstances with your intellect rather than your emotions comes with maturity. It’s also possible that you experience many extremes in life, and that you are on the receiving end of difficult tempers more than most.It is all too easy for you to find something negative about a situation. Avoid issuing ultimatums when you meet an obstacle. Instead, find a way to convince others to work with you of their own free will. Ordinary life often seems drab and uninteresting to you and you must have something that stirs your imagination, some vision or ideal or dream to motivate you. You have a strong urge to act out your fantasies or to live your dream, and you will DO things that others only talk about or dream about. Artistic creation, drama, or other areas in which you can express yourself imaginatively are excellent for you.You do not easily tolerate a dominating attitude in others. You have a healthy respect for power and authority, but only if it is handled fairly.This aspect gives you a somewhat Scorpionic attitude toward your lovers, and it can modify the traits associated with the sign of your Mars considerably. In other words, there is a distinct possessive and demanding streak in your sexual nature. Your approach to love and sex can be quite intense at times. Your sexual desire nature is a very strong one, and you may even use sex as a bargaining chip in your relationships in order to achieve your goals. More likely, however, is a very focused and intense sexual nature. This also adds a very magnetic quality to your appeal. When a woman finds you attractive, it can transform into a near obsession! Your aura is strong and somewhat mysterious. You tend to come across as stronger than you intend. In fact, some people are intimidated by you, and you may not understand why this is so. When you want something (or someone!) you are very determined. For you, it can be “all or nothing”. When you are finished with something, you leave it behind you and there is no going back. You want a deep, soulful attachment on a sexual level. In your love life you do not take rejection well. You fear betrayal and abandonment, and this can skew your perception of your lover. You have a highly developed sex drive, but you must learn to rein in your aggressiveness in this area. Power struggles and control issues may surface often in your relationships. — Interpretation from our LoveStyles: About Him Report.#You perceive the cruel edge in people, and understand its source. As you deal with your own ruthlessness, you learn how to respond to it in others without risking your physical well-being. Self-confidence develops out of self-control in your interaction with others.Some Famous People with the Mars in Hard Aspect to Pluto: Squares – Oprah Winfrey, Bruce Lee, Mel Gibson, Jeremy Irons, Patrick Swayze. Oppositions – Kirk Douglas, Farrah Fawcett, Kirstie Alley.

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.
