Planetary Information

The Sun

The Sun is in Cancer

The Sun is at 27 Can 04' 53", and is 152018258km away and approaching.

The Moon

The Moon is in Sagittarius

The Moon will change from Sagittarius to Capricorn in the next 24 hours.

The Moon is at 28 Sag 55' 41", and is 379670km away and approaching.

Moon Is In Sagittarius

Well, well, well, folks! Buckle up because the Moon has parked itself in Sagittarius today, and it's a bit like having a cosmic archer on your side. Although, given how often I misplace my glasses, I'm not sure I'd trust my aim with a celestial bow and arrow. Now, just as the moon is 379955.568628258km away (yes, I counted every kilometer), it might seem that your goals are light-years away. But remember, even the universe had to start with a big bang, so why can't your dreams? Don't get bogged down by the distance, after all, if the Mars Rover can make it to Mars, you can certainly reach the cookie jar on the top shelf. The Moon in Sagittarius is all about optimism, adventure, and pushing boundaries. It's a bit like Star Trek but without the tight uniforms or odd alien encounters. So, take a leaf out of Captain Kirk's book and boldly go where no man, woman, or astrologically guided individual has gone before. But take heed, dear reader, for the moon will be moonwalking its way into Capricorn in the next 24 hours. Now, Capricorn is a bit of a stick in the mud, the Hermione Granger of the zodiac if you will. They're all about rules, structure, and ambition, which is great if you're building an IKEA bookshelf, but not so much when you're trying to navigate the chaos of life. So, seize the day while the Sagittarian energy is still in play. Explore new ideas, take risks, and maybe, just maybe, try pineapple on your pizza. Because who knows? Tomorrow, under the watchful, practical eye of Capricorn, you might just find yourself sorting socks instead of adventuring. And let's be real, there is no planet in which that is more fun. Remember, space is vast, and life is short. So, take advantage of every cosmic push and pull to make your personal universe a place worth exploring!

Mercury

Mercury is in Leo

Mercury is prograde at 23 Leo 48' 04", moving at 1.09 degrees per day, and is 135128534km away and approaching.

Mercury Is In Leo

Well, hello, stargazers! I'm here to inform you, in the spirit of C3PO (and with a dash of my tie dye shirt and lava lamp vibes), about the celestial disco happening above us. Our speedy friend Mercury is currently doing the hustle in the constellation Leo. Now, unless you're measuring this with the odometer on your Millennium Falcon, that's a whopping 135245509.822281241km away. But fear not, Mercury is in prograde, meaning it's moving in the same direction as us - it's not going rogue like a Stormtrooper on a bad day. When Mercury, the communication whizz of the cosmos, teams up with Leo, the zodiac's very own stage superstar, things heat up faster than a lightsaber duel. Words are going to be flying around like X-wing fighters in the Battle of Endor. So, if you've got something to say, now's the time to let it out. Just remember, folks, with great power comes great responsibility - try not to let your words turn into a thermal detonator. Mercury's sojourn in Leo also has the potential to make life more entertaining than a cantina band on Tatooine. Expect laughter, jokes and banter worthy of a droid convention. Picture yourself as a confident Wookiee, strutting through the galaxy with your mane blowing in the interstellar wind. It's your time to take the mic and let your inner Chewbacca roar. This combination of Mercury's quick wit and Leo's fiery passion also means one thing: creativity will be flowing like the Force. If you've been neglecting your artistic side, it's time to pick up those paintbrushes or dust off your camera. Channel your inner George Lucas and create your own epic saga. Who knows, maybe your masterpiece could be the next big hit in the galaxy far, far away. So strap in, folks! While Mercury is the Han Solo of the zodiac, making quick moves through the galaxy, Leo is the Luke Skywalker, bringing confidence and courage to us all. Take advantage of this cosmic combo and embrace the intergalactic awesomeness that awaits you!

Venus

Venus is in Leo

Venus is prograde at 09 Leo 19' 09", moving at 1.23 degrees per day, and is 251021501km away and approaching.

Venus Is In Leo

Greetings, celestial travelers and intergalactic enthusiasts! Time to dust off your telescopes and fasten your seatbelts because Venus, our dazzling dame of the cosmos, has packed her bags and landed in Leo. She's not just stopping by for a casual visit, she's here to throw a party, and you're all invited! Ah, Leo, the zodiac's own natural-born performer, the life of every cosmic party. When Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and all things shiny, sways into the Lion's den, we're not just in for a display of affection... we're in for a Broadway-level extravaganza! So brace yourselves, my dear stargazers, it's time to channel your inner diva and let your love light shine brighter than a supernova. But what's that I hear? A roar of approval? A purr of contentment? No, my friends, that's Venus in Leo saying "Admire me, adore me, marvel at my magnificence!" This is no time for half-hearted compliments or lukewarm displays of affection. Venus in Leo demands a standing ovation, not polite applause. So if you've been hiding your feelings, now's the time to announce them with a sky-writer, or at least an excessively large greeting card. But beware, fellow starlings, all that glitters is not gold. Leo, while playful and full of life, also has a flair for drama. If they feel ignored or overlooked, they might just stir up a cosmic storm. So remember, even if you feel like the Sun revolves around you (and with Venus in Leo, who could blame you?), there are other planets in your solar system. Don't neglect their gravitational pull! Another thing to note is that Venus in Leo views money as the ticket to the VIP lounge of life. It's all about spoiling yourself and your loved ones to the interstellar luxuries. However, remember that Leo's generosity is as legendary as their pride. So, while buying that gold-plated asteroid might seem appealing, consider gifting a comet or two to someone special. Trust me, the joy you'll feel will be out of this world! In short, Venus in Leo is like a cosmic Mardi Gras. It's bold, it's bright, and it's a spectacular sight. So, don't just stand on the sidelines, join the parade. After all, life without a little stardust is like a black hole, utterly devoid

Mars

Mars is in Taurus

Mars is prograde at 28 Tau 53' 24", moving at 0.7 degrees per day, and is 248098129km away and approaching.

Mars Is In Taurus

Alright, my interstellar pals, strap on your astronaut helmets and brace yourself as we boldly go where no astrologer has gone before! Our red-hot friend Mars is moonwalking right into the chilled-out neighborhood of Taurus. Think of it as a caffeinated espresso shot landing in a smooth oat milk latte. The result might be a bit frothy, but it's certainly flavorful! Mars, that cosmic action-hero, is all about making things happen yesterday. But Taurus, our down-to-earth bovine buddy, likes to take things slow... like, glacial pace slow. So, you can imagine that Mars in Taurus is a bit like trying to launch a rocket in a field of molasses. Trying to get new projects off the ground? You might feel like you're pulling a space tractor with your bare hands. But fear not, once you get that momentum, Taurus' stubborn streak will ensure you keep going until you're basking in the glow of accomplished missions. Now, let's talk anger management. Mars might be the 'hot-head' of the solar system but Taurus is more of a 'keep-calm-and-graze-on' type. This means that while Mars is moo-ving through Taurus, we might find ourselves playing cosmic hide-and-seek with confrontations. However, remember, resentment is like a black hole, sucking in all your positive vibes. So, don't let your tempers flare like a supernova if you're not careful. Next up, we have the universal question – "Where's the money, honey?" As Mars orbits through fortune-seeking Taurus, our financial radar sharpens. Imagine this as a quest for hidden treasure in a galaxy far, far away. It's time to gear up, activate your thrusters, and pursue those financial goals with the tenacity of a starship in warp speed. Finally, amidst all this cosmic chaos, don't forget to chill out. Taurus, our celestial connoisseur of relaxation, reminds us to enjoy the earthly pleasures. Think of it as a stargazing picnic after a challenging spacewalk. So, kick off your moon boots, recline on your anti-grav chair, and embrace the art of interstellar indulgence. After all, what's the point of exploring the universe if we don't stop to marvel at its wonders once in a while? So, cosmic voyagers, embrace this Mars in Taurus phase like a thrilling space odyssey - with a little bit of turbulence, a

Jupiter in Gemini: The Cosmic Comedy Show is Now Live!

Picture this, Jupiter, the jumbo-sized planet of wisdom just decided to crash at Gemini's intellectual crib. Imagine Jupiter as the overbearing, philosophical house guest who can't stop asking deep questions like, "What does this mean?" while Gemini, the super curious, multitasking host can't help but respond with, "What IS this?" It's like hosting a cosmic comedy show in your brain and everyone's invited.

With Jupiter in Gemini, our minds are about to receive an upgrade, think 5G but for your brain. It's time to turn our mental kaleidoscopes in every possible direction, exploring the multi-faceted reality that Gemini loves so much. It's like standing at a crossroad, but instead of one path, you've got multiple roads, secret tunnels, bridges, and heck, maybe even a teleportation portal.

And oh boy! Expect a verbal explosion. Gemini, the zodiac's chatterbox, is ready to amp up the communication vibes. It's like everyone swallowed a truth serum mixed with a happy pill. Conversations will flow, ideas will sparkle, and we might even solve the mystery of why cats purr or where that missing sock went.

Let's be honest, we're going to be busier than a one-armed juggler with an itch. There'll be things to read, learn, absorb, and then talk about until we're blue in the face. It's like opening a Pandora's box of brilliant ideas. You may need to clone yourself to keep up!

Jupiter in Gemini is like getting a backstage pass to the universe's biggest brainstorming session. It's a golden ticket to understanding the mysteries of life, the universe, and why pizza is a circle but comes in a square box. So, buckle up and get ready for a mental rollercoaster ride of cosmic proportions. Just remember, amidst the whirlwind of thoughts and ideas, finding that sweet spot between certainty and fleeting thoughts will be your ticket to nirvana...or at least to sanity.

So, my star-studded friends, grab your space helmet, buckle up, and prepare for the ultimate cosmic comic journey. Jupiter in Gemini is here, and it's about to turn our world upside down, inside out, and possibly even diagonally!

Saturn

Saturn is in Pisces

Saturn is retrograde at 19 Pis 07' 00", moving backwards at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 1349654563km away and approaching.

Saturn Is In Pisces

The Cosmic Dance: Saturn Shimmies into Pisces

Gather 'round, star gazers and space nerds alike! It's time to tune into the cosmic radio because I've got some spicy news for you: Saturn, our beloved taskmaster of the universe - who is currently 1349722751.491097689km away (give or take a parsec) - has decided to shimmy its way into dreamy Pisces. And oh boy, it's like watching Darth Vader doing the Macarena with Yoda.

What's that? You're skeptical? Well, hold onto your lightsabers, because when the grandmaster of discipline waltzes with the zodiac's resident daydreamer, we're all bound to feel a bit... well, swirly.

Imagine Saturn as that straight-laced science teacher you had in high school, always going on about rules and order. Now, he's decided to crash your dreamland, the last bastion of your unfettered imagination. Yes, your personal Neverland is about to get a reality-check. Only instead of Captain Hook, you get Saturn armed with a clipboard and a red pen, ready to help you turn those dreams into actions.

Now, don't go hanging up your "No Sith Lords Allowed" sign just yet. I know, it's tempting to keep Saturn's practicality at bay, but trust me on this - his guidance can be a goldmine. He's not here to ruin your dreams, he's here to make them come to life. So, grab a notebook, put on your best Yoda ears, and listen up!

But wait, there's more! With Saturn in Pisces, our sleep might be as elusive as a correct answer from a Jedi master. "Restful, your sleep might not be," as Yoda might say. So, it's time to channel your inner Zen master. Meditate, stroll among the Ewoks in the forest, breathe like you're using a Darth Vader voice changer, or even take a well-deserved nap (with a dream journal at hand, of course).

So, folks, as we navigate this Saturn in Pisces transit, remember: "In a galaxy far, far away"... is actually right now, and the stars are ready to guide us. May the force be with you!

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is prograde at 26 Tau 27' 22", moving at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 3000831159km away and approaching.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Well, space cadets, buckle up your astronaut pants and put your Star Wars nerd glasses on! Our cosmic buddy Uranus has decided to crash at Taurus' place, and let me tell you, Taurus is about as thrilled as a cat in a bathtub. See, Taurus is a bit of an old-fashioned fuddy-duddy, likes his routines, and prefers to keep things as stable as a perfectly balanced chemical equation. But Uranus? Well, Uranus is the punk rock teenager of the solar system. It thrives on disruption, like a rogue asteroid barreling through space. Poor Taurus is trying to keep its feet firmly planted on the ground and its bank account steady like the Hubble Telescope's focus. But Uranus is all about shaking things up, introducing revolutionary ideas like Bitcoin and cryptocurrency into Taurus' traditional banking world. Imagine if Han Solo tried to pay Jabba the Hutt with digital gold! And it's not just finances. Uranus is encouraging us to let go of the materialistic chains that bind us, like Darth Vader's grip on the Galactic Empire. Debt, taxes, credit card interest, rent, mortgages... these aren't the droids we're looking for. It's time to change our relationship with money, or Uranus will do it for us, faster than you can say "lightspeed." So, you might feel like Luke Skywalker, staring at the twin suns of Tatooine and dreaming of a different life. But remember, even the greatest Jedi had to start somewhere. And sometimes, change can lead to greater stability in the end. Just remember, this transit isn't a Sith Lord. It's here to liberate us. Resisting is as futile as trying to convince a Wookiee to shave. So, strap in, hold on, and may the cosmic force be with you. This ride might be as unpredictable as the Millennium Falcon's hyperdrive, but hey, it's all just part of the interstellar journey.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is retrograde at 29 Pis 51' 21", moving backwards at 0.01 degrees per day, and is 4401177345km away and approaching.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Greetings, cosmic voyagers! Buckle up, because we're about to take a giddy galactic ride 4.4 billion kilometers away to where Neptune, our favorite blue-green dreamy planet, is currently chilling out in the emotional waters of Pisces. And guess what? It's in retrograde, y’all! Yeah, Neptune is spinning backward faster than a rewound VHS tape of Star Wars. You know, the one where R2-D2 saves the day with his astromech wits and whistles. Now, I know it might sound like Neptune’s gone a bit rogue, but hold onto your telescopes, because this celestial event is more enlightening than a Jedi Master's wisdom. With Pisces' natural knack for emotional depth diving and Neptune's cosmic call for unity, it's like the universe decided to turn on its high beams in a foggy night. Suddenly, all those petty squabbles seem as insignificant as a speck of stardust in the grand scheme of the cosmos, and unity appears as glittering as a gold-clad C-3PO. This space-time odyssey is pushing us all to ponder on our individual roles in the grand cosmic screenplay. What unique gifts do we bring to the interstellar table? What dreams do we have for a future that's as harmonious as a perfectly synchronized binary star system? This is a stellar time to dip your toes into the spiritual realms that intrigue you or maybe create your own sacred space that rivals the serenity of Dagobah. And Neptune in Pisces is here to guide you in that quest, like a trusty droid sidekick. So, open up your hearts and minds, my fellow earthlings, and let Neptune’s current residence in Pisces inspire you to share your inner light with the world. And remember, as Yoda would say, "Do or do not, there is no try." May the force...er, I mean, the stars be with you!

Pluto

Pluto is in Aquarius

Pluto is retrograde at 00 Aqu 57' 51", moving backwards at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 5093200918km away and approaching.

Pluto Is In Aquarius

Greetings, star gazers and cosmic voyagers! Fancy a trip around the cosmos? Buckle up, because our celestial chum, Pluto - you know, the one that got demoted from planet status but we still love it anyway - is currently doing the cha-cha in Aquarius. And boy oh boy, are we in for a ride. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Isn't Pluto that tiny, icy rock that's approximately 5093202205.153455734km away?" Yes, my keen-eyed friend, you're correct! But don't let that mislead you into thinking it can't stir up a cosmic cocktail of change. You see, Pluto is the metaphorical DJ of transformation - spinning tracks of death and rebirth, making us shake off our old identities like a dog losing its winter coat. And Aquarius? Well, it's the dance floor of progress, where all the magic happens. So, when Pluto is in Aquarius, it's like a cosmic remix of our lives. I'm not talking about a simple wardrobe makeover or a new group of friends. It's like waking up one morning to find your cat has learned to play the piano... It's that level of unexpected, mind-boggling change. As Pluto twists and turns in its retrograde boogie, we can expect a symphony of shifts in science, technology, and space travel. Don't be surprised if your smartphone starts conversing with your toaster or NASA announces a summer holiday package to Mars! But this planetary party isn't just about technological advancements. Oh no, it's also a call to arms for civil rights, humanitarianism, and unity. Imagine a world where governments put aside their petty squabbles and work together for the greater good. That’s the kind of utopia Pluto and Aquarius are cooking up. On a personal level, Pluto's residency in Aquarius is like a cosmic therapy session. It's nudging us to rethink our selfish tendencies and consider what's best for the collective. So, next time you're contemplating whether to buy that last roll of toilet paper during a crisis, think of Pluto in Aquarius and leave it for the next person. So, my celestial comrades, are we ready to dance to the tune of transformation? Will we answer the call? Only time (and Pluto's fancy footwork) will tell. Until then, keep your eyes on the stars and your hearts open to change!

The Sun

Sun Sextile Mars

You have great vitality and energy today. You know your goals, you have made your plans, now take charge. People in stations above you can be impressed now with the initiative you show. Actions speak louder than words, so get busy.People born with flowing aspects between the Sun and Mars are generally enterprising. They have powerful stores of energy that they can draw upon when needed. These people respond to problems or challenges with a spirited and enthusiastic confidence that is admirable. They are naturally competitive, and this trait is generally well-received by others simply because it is unforced, unaffected, and sincere. These people truly believe in fair play, and they seem to be in love with life. When they are expressing competitiveness and courage, it’s easy to smile and accept these traits as positive ones rather than being rubbed the wrong way. These people generally have good physical vitality.It is interesting to note that these people are not naturally combative. Many enjoy sports or games that are competitive, but not violent. Breaking the rules of a competitive game is particularly upsetting to those with Sun in easy aspect to Mars. This is largely due to the fact that the will (Sun) is connected to the desire nature (Mars) in a pleasing manner, so that the natives are more able than most to control their desires, aggressions, and instincts. They know how to be fair, and they expect others to be fair. As such, sneaky behaviors, uncontrolled impulses, violence, and rage are offensive to them. They know how to direct and control their own impulses and desire natures, and they fully expect others to be able to do so!The main difference between the sextile and trine of the Sun and Mars: The trine is a more natural energy. Those with Sun trine Mars naturally and without thought are courageous and enterprising. Those with Sun sextile Mars have the opportunity to draw upon their courageous and enterprising spirit, but effort is required to pull these energies out of themselves and to apply these energies in their lives. With the trine, the characteristics of Sun-Mars come so naturally that the natives may not even realize just how much endurance, confidence, and enthusiasm they possess. Because the sextile requires some effort and thought, those with Sun sextile Mars often have many creative tools at their disposal, and they can be effective strategists and leaders.Some Famous People with Sun sextile or trine Mars: Angelina Jolie, Neil Armstrong (the first man to step on the Moon), George Lucas, Warren Beatty, Donald Trump, Robert Pattinson.Sun sextile Mars: Energetic, enthusiastic, (and at times) very combative, you have a way of getting to your goal. You enjoy the contest of others trying to stop you. Your creative energies flow very strong when you are opposed. — Interpretation from our In-Depth Profile report.Sun sextile Mars: For most children with this harmonious Sun/Mars aspect, will and desire work hand in hand. It’s probably easy for your child to work with those in authority: parents, teachers, elders. She enjoys working with others and would make a good manager. An interest (and ability) in athletics, exercise (working with the physical body), the outdoors and such, should be lifelong. Another form this could take is training or coaching others. Your child could have a natural ability to express herself and to handle emotions. She may also like to perform. A career in one of the entertainment industries is a possibility. This position also favors police work. Because Mom and Dad supported her as a child, your child is confident of success as an adult. — Interpretation from the Child Star report (Girl).Sun sextile Mars: You have abundant physical vitality and little hesitancy in using it. You are always on the move. Your aims and purposes, being direct and clear and animated by a good physical equipment, carry you to success. You are forceful, hard-hitting, aggressive, knowing where you stand and where you are going. You wear out less energetic souls by the speed and continuous level of your activities, for you are seemingly tireless and can stand shoulder to shoulder with the strongest when it comes to matters of endurance. Since a good deal of the success of this world in material matters depends on physical vitality, you have an edge on competitors. You are an excellent leader not so much of thought as of action (unless Mercury is powerful) and frequently choose the army or navy as your field of activity, where you speedily rise to authority; or business, where you won’t long stay in a subordinate position. You overwhelm people, and they naturally give way to you. If you also have Moon square or opposite Saturn, or Mercury conjunct Venus, or Mercury conjunct, square, or opposition Saturn, or Mercury conjunct Uranus, or Mercury conjunct Neptune: This occurs with strong intellectual and creative bents. You are a leader of thought and a powerful personality. — Interpretation from the Heaven Knows What report.Sun sextile Mars: One of your strengths is your high level of physical vitality and energy. You are an ACTION person, a doer, a go-getter, and you can pack more activity into a day than most people do in a week. You enjoy fighting the good fight, taking on challenges with relish, and you are inherently quite competitive but not in a way that provokes anger or fierce opposition from others. Because in the past you have succeeded in achieving your goals, you now have an inner expectation of success and of being a winner, a natural self-confidence that you draw on without even thinking about it. You have developed many positive “masculine” qualities, such as courage, will power and the ability to take initiative. You tend to be a leader without having to struggle or coerce others into accepting your authority. Occasionally, however, you may overpower other people without realizing it, since they may not have the energy resources that you do. — Interpretation from the Karmic Insight report.

Sun Sextile Uranus

Today is a good day to pour your creativity and self-expression into coming up with new ways of doing things. Positive surprises are likely today as your aura is ready for the new and unusual. By going off the beaten pathway, you may open up many possibilities for further spiritual and personal growth. You feel free today from all restrictions and you want to fly like the eagle, unbounded by any restraints. Soar high and don't limit yourself.It is easy and natural for those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Uranus to embrace new ways of doing things, to stick up for the underdog, and to express themselves in unique and inspiring ways. These people don’t have to try to stand out as unique–they are original, creative, and progressive without trying. Although these people question rules and traditions if they don’t seem to make sense to them, they don’t view them as threatening their personal sense of freedom.These individuals are far from pretentious. They value honesty and truth, and they avoid putting on airs. They believe in the equality of people, and easily relate to people from all walks of life. There is an unmistakable enthusiasm about life, and generally the life is interesting because the natives invite unusual or adventurous experiences into their lives. They are generally appreciated by others because they are open-minded, fair, and not judgmental. Nothing really seems to faze them! They take things in stride, and are rarely shocked or taken aback by human behavior. If you are holding onto something that you keep to yourself for fear that if you talk about it, someone will think you’re strange, you can safely turn to a Sun-Uranus person. They probably won’t blink, and they’ll make you feel quite alright about it.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon their intuitive faculties when needed, and those with the trine between the Sun and Uranus have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Some Famous People with Sun in Harmonious Aspect to Uranus: Sextiles – Gregory Peck, Paula Abdul, Kirk Douglas, Tiger Woods, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dr. Phil McGraw, Gene Simmons. Isaac Newton, Paula Abdul; Trines – Nicolas Cage, Anne Heche, Harry Hamlin, Dick Clark, Drew Barrymore, Muhammad Ali, Farrah Fawcett.

Sun Trine Neptune

Today will be rewarding if you find the time to express yourself by helping others. Find something artistic through which you can channel your creativity and your soul. Art and music as well as spiritual pursuits are favored today. Try to become one with the Universe today. Creative visualization can be an important means through which your goals are realized. Idealism runs high today.There is an unmistakably dreamy, inspired, and sensitive side to those born with easy aspects between the Sun and Neptune. A marked appreciation for music and the arts is present. The connection of Neptune with the Sun, which represents the ego and the will, certainly softens some of the hard edges that might be found elsewhere in the chart, adding a sensitive and spiritual dimension to the personality. These people are naturally compassionate, especially those born under the trine. It is so completely natural for them to accept that there is more to the world than what is before their eyes, that they tend to presume everyone must be spiritually-inclined. Of course, they come to realize that this is not the case at some early point in their lives. Their attraction to spirituality and metaphysical subjects is usually marked. These aspects favor writers, artists, and musicians. These people are sensitive to those who are suffering, although they are not as easily taken advantage of as those with Sun-Moon challenging aspects. They are humanitarian and often have a special connection with animals. If other aspects and positions in the chart support it, these people are not ones to dominate others or assert themselves to the point of brashness.Some Famous People with Sun in Easy Aspect to Neptune: Sextiles – Mick Jagger; Trines – Farrah Fawcett, Billy Corgan, Muhammad Ali

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.

Avoid hasty speech and things said in anger in the heat of the moment. Impractical ideas, nervousness, irritability and unexpected disruptions are what you may have to deal with today. There may be sudden changes in travel plans. Be extra cautious while traveling as accidents are possible through carelessness and impatience.You possess a quick mind, you are very intuitive, and you require a great deal of mental stimulation to keep from feeling bored. Preferring to be self-directed, you don’t always take advice easily. There is a part of you that loves to shock, challenge, and instigate with the things you say; however, this may not be a conscious process. Your mental energy and output is extremely variable–one day you might be capable of enormous effort and interest in a project, and the next day the opposite. This is largely due to the fact that you feel a strong need to be true to your instincts and intuition, and if you are not absolutely inspired, you don’t feel right working on a project–you might feel that you are “faking” it, and this doesn’t sit well for you. The problem is that in life there are always going to be routine tasks to complete, things we have to do that don’t entirely suit our interests, and so forth. School years may be challenging as a result of your disdain for a linear approach to learning, routine tasks, and subjects that don’t inspire you, not because of any lack of mental ability. In fact, you can have real flashes of genius and your ideas and perspectives are often very original. At times you can be very dogmatic. You have a tendency to be, or to appear to be, scatterbrained. Your attention span can be short, and as a result, you might often leave projects unfinished. At times you can have an irritable temper and need to channel some of your nervous energy into constructive pursuits. Take time to reflect on what you truly believe in, because many times you are too busy challenging established thought, or playing devil’s advocate, to get in touch with your own opinions and feelings. This way, your intelligence, integrity, and ingenuity can come shining through.Some Famous People with the Mercury in Hard Aspect to Uranus: Squares – Sigourney Weaver, Oliver Stone, Steven Seagal, George Clooney, Drew Carey, Bjork. Oppositions – Howard Stern, Voltaire, Henri Matisse, Billy Jean King, Robert Browning, Charles Chaplin, Danny DeVito.

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.
