Moon Is In Libra

Greetings, celestial voyagers! This is your intergalactic harbinger of cosmic wisdom, here to orbit around the fact that our lovely lady Luna has just checked into her airy suite in Libra. Now, remember folks, this isn't some lunar Airbnb scenario, so don't expect a review on the celestial version of Yelp! First things first, let's talk distance - 405,480.504420335km away. That's like walking to your fridge for a midnight snack, only about a billion times over. So no, I'm afraid you can't just reach out and give the moon a high-five, even if you're standing on the tallest chair…or even if you use a really, really, really long selfie stick. Now, Libra, as you know, is all about balance, harmony, and getting along with everyone at the party. So, with the moon in Libra, we're talking about the universe's way of saying, "Hey, can't we all just get along?" Of course, anyone who's ever tried to agree on a pizza topping knows that's often easier said than done. But fear not, for this is also the perfect time to channel your inner-hippie, embrace your inner-Bill Nye the Science Guy, and find the equilibrium in your life. Yes, my fellow stargazers, it's time to harmonize your heart like a cosmic symphony, to balance your energies like a tight-rope walker crossing the Grand Canyon, and remember to tip the pizza guy well. Because, let’s face it, he’s probably a Gemini and they need all the good karma they can get. So, while the moon is sashaying through Libra, take a step back, find your center, and remember - the universe is full of balance. You just have to look for it, and sometimes, it's 405,480.504420335km away. So, whether you're a Scorpio, a Leo, or a Taurus with a Capricorn rising and a Virgo moon, remember this - the cosmos is always in balance, even when your life feels like a mad scientist's lab experiment gone awry. This is your friendly neighborhood astrologer, signing off with peace, love, and stardust!

Mercury in Aries: To Boldly Speak What No One Has Spoken Before

Engage, my celestial stargazers! Mercury has set a course for Aries, and there's no warp speed limit in sight. At a distance of a mere 133098526.038157761km (give or take a few decimal places), this celestial journey is one of impatience and restlessness, much like the time I had to explain the theory of relativity to a Tribble.

Astrologically speaking, with Mercury in Aries, we're all going to be about as subtle as a phaser set to kill. Aries waits for no one, not even Q. So, prepare yourselves to charge ahead and boldly tackle new challenges, just like facing a Borg cube with a single Starfleet vessel.

With Mercury in Aries, it's like having the universal translator set to "No Filter." It's the perfect time to open hailing frequencies and say what's on your mind. But remember, diplomacy is the order of the day in the United Federation of Planets. So, use that newfound assertiveness wisely, or you might find yourself negotiating peace treaties with a grumpy Klingon.

When Mercury and Aries team up, it's like a Vulcan mind-meld with Einstein. Expect flashes of insight brighter than a supernova, and innovative ideas that would make even Data's positronic brain whirr. But don't dilly-dally! These bursts of brilliance are as fleeting as a Redshirt's life expectancy. So, grab that inspiration like it's the last piece of pecan pie at a Starfleet banquet.

So, my friends, set your phasers to 'innovate', engage your warp drives, and boldly go where no thought has gone before.

Venus Is In Pisces

Greetings, celestial voyagers! Gather 'round and listen, for Venus is currently doing the backstroke through the dreamy waters of Pisces. This is like that time in The Terminator when Sarah Connor found out she was going to be the mother of the human resistance leader - unexpected, a little bit scary, but also kind of exciting, right? Now, Venus in Pisces is less about battling killer robots from the future and more about falling head over heels into a vat of love potion. You're going to want to merge with your significant other like two galaxies colliding in outer space! It's all about connecting on a molecular level and shrugging off the mundanity of everyday life like a bad sweater. However, my star-spangled friends, a word of caution: Just like Sarah Connor probably should've been a bit more skeptical about an oddly buff man claiming to be a time traveler, Venus in Pisces might fog up your judgement goggles. Your partner's flaws might seem to vanish faster than the Higgs Boson particle in a high-energy physics experiment. Unless you've spent enough time with someone to know their quirks, like how they prefer their tea or if they leave wet towels on the bed (seriously, why do people do that?), it's better to hold off on making any commitments. But don't worry, this idealistic lens isn't all bad - like a good sci-fi movie, it helps us imagine a better world, a better relationship. If you've been nitpicky about your partner's shortcomings, this cosmic combo can help you see past the small stuff and appreciate the big picture. Remember, it's all about the experience, not the control, like riding a wave or exploring a new planet. And what about money? Well, Venus in Pisces is less about hoarding gold like Smaug the Dragon and more about sharing your gifts with the world. Think less Wall Street, more Star Trek's Federation Credits - it's about creating value with your unique talents, not just chasing the almighty dollar. So buckle up, stargazers! This Venus in Pisces ride might feel a bit like navigating a wormhole, but remember: In space, no one can hear you scream... but they can definitely feel the love.

Mars

Mars Is In Pisces

Greetings, stargazers and space travelers! Buckle up for some cosmic comedy because we're talking about Mars in Pisces today. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Mars is in Pisces. Shouldn't it be in a space station or something?" Well, in astrology, planets don't follow NASA's rules, they like to vacation in zodiac signs and right now, Mars is chilling in Pisces. Now, Mars in Pisces doesn’t mean our ambition has evaporated like water on the red planet. Nah-ah! Mars, being the cosmic action hero it is, just swaps its lightsaber for a paintbrush. It nudges us to use our imagination, so if you've been waiting to start that interpretive dance routine inspired by quantum mechanics, now's the time! Mars in Pisces is like the love-child of Bob Ross and Captain Planet. It's all about using creativity to make a difference. You can't just punch climate change in the face, but you can certainly create a viral meme about recycling that gets retweeted by a celebrity. That's Mars-in-Pisces kind of activism! But remember folks, with great cosmic power comes great cosmic responsibility. When Mars is in Pisces, passions can run high and you might find yourself wanting to wrestle the Loch Ness Monster to save the local fish population. As noble as it sounds, make sure you're not just flailing about like a fish out of water. We have enough reality shows, thank you very much! Lastly, Pisces tends to bring out our inner Picasso. It’s a sign that loves to express itself creatively, and when Mars is in town, it's like a universal reminder that art can be a beautiful escape pod from our mundane lives. So, whether it's painting, music, or writing a sci-fi novel about sentient potatoes, let your creativity guide you to new galaxies. In a nutshell, while Mars is in Pisces, it's time to swap your astronaut helmet for a beret, and your laser gun for a paintbrush. Let's make the universe a better place, one starry stroke at a time!

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Oh, greetings fellow celestial wanderer! Gather around the galactic campfire and lend me your cosmic ears. The benevolent giant Jupiter is currently throwing a celestial party in the starry pastures of Taurus, and boy, does it have some tales to tell! Picture this: Jupiter, the cosmic professor with an insatiable curiosity, is nestled in the comfy armchair of Taurus, the zodiac's resident creature of comfort. It's like a wise old monk deciding to take a vacation in a lavish five-star hotel. The universe, my friend, truly has a sense of humor. Now, what does this mean for you? This transit is like having a pocket-sized Yoda whispering wisdom into your ear while you're shopping at a cosmic IKEA. It's about finding deep truths hidden amidst the flat-packed furniture of your everyday life. And maybe, just maybe, you'll finally find that missing Allen wrench in the process. Jupiter in Taurus is also your personal cheerleader, urging you to make a beeline towards your dreams. It's like having a motivational speaker and a meticulous project manager rolled into one, pushing you gently (and persistently) towards your goals. The key? Patience, grasshopper. Success might not come overnight, but hey, Rome wasn't built in a day either. And here's where it gets interesting. Jupiter, the planet known for its Midas touch, is hanging out in Taurus, the Wall Street bull of the zodiac. This could mean a windfall, a pay raise, or finding a forgotten $20 bill in your jeans. Just remember, when the universe hands you a golden ticket, don't go buying the entire chocolate factory. But beware, my friend. Taurus can be a bit of a hedonist and Jupiter, the celestial yes-man. Together, they might tempt you to indulge a little too much. So before you order that third slice of pizza or add another collectible to your shopping cart, take a deep breath and ask yourself: "Do I really need this?" To sum it all up, Jupiter in Taurus is like a cosmic road trip – exciting, full of possibilities, and a test of your self-control when it comes to roadside diners and tacky souvenirs. Strap in, enjoy the ride, and remember – the stars may guide us, but we're the ones behind the wheel. Happy stargazing!

When Saturn Meets Pisces: A Cosmic Stand-Up Comedy

Alright folks, grab your telescopes and dream journals because Saturn, the cosmic taskmaster, has just RSVP'd to Pisces' pool party. Now, you might be thinking, "A stern planet like Saturn at a chill-out Pisces shindig? That's as out of place as The Terminator at a yoga retreat!"

Well, don't worry, Saturn isn't there to harsh Pisces' mellow. It's more like Saturn is that one friend who shows up to the party with an organizer and a planner, ready to give everybody life advice whether they asked for it or not. Yes, Saturn, we get it, you're the 'Master of Rules' but this is Pisces' domain - a place where dreams are born and the imagination runs wild.

So, instead of confiscating our daydreams like a stern school headmaster, Saturn in Pisces is going to ask us to turn those dreams into reality. I'm talking business plans, budgets, and loan applications. All the fun stuff, right? Well, as much as we'd love to hide behind a giant "Stay Out of My Room" sign, this is the perfect time to let Saturn in and start turning our wildest dreams into achievable goals.

But, hold onto your horoscopes, because Saturn in Pisces can also spike our anxiety levels, mess with our sleep, and give us more restless nights than a double bill of horror movies. And, no, binging on late-night sci-fi flicks is not the solution here (as tempting as a Terminator marathon might be).

Instead, it's time to embrace some Piscean peace and tranquility. Meditate, take a stroll through nature, breathe deeply, or even take a nap—just make sure you have your dream journal ready for any cosmic insights. And remember, there's no shame in hitting the hay early to let your mind relax and recharge.

So, as Saturn continues its prograde journey through Pisces, just remember: dreams + discipline = destiny. Now, get out there and show the cosmos what you're made of!

Uranus Is In Taurus

Uranus Is in Taurus, Hold Onto Your Hats... and Wallets!

Well folks, grab your pocket protectors and brace yourselves because Uranus is in Taurus. Oh, I see you Taurus, comfy in your cozy routine, basking in the tried-and-true. Guess what? Uranus, the astrological equivalent of a mad scientist on a caffeine buzz, has rolled into town. Uh-oh! The planet of change is crashing Taurus' 'keep things as they are' party. Talk about a cosmic clash!

But don't fret, my stubbornly stable Taurean friends. Change can be good, like when you finally switch from flared jeans to skinny ones and realize you've been living a lie all these years. That's Uranus for you, always ready to shake things up.

Now, Taurus is the Bill Gates of the zodiac - they know their dollars and cents. So, with Uranus in Taurus, we're looking at some serious Monopoly game changes in finance. We're talking new currency here, maybe Bitcoin will finally get that family reunion it's been dreaming of. Banks might just become as outdated as a rotary phone. And stock markets? They'll be on a rollercoaster ride, and not the fun kind.

Uranus in Taurus is not just about global economic reform, though. It's also about your personal relationship with money. You know, those pesky things like debt, taxes, rent, and that shiny new credit card burning a hole in your pocket. Uranus is here to play financial therapist. It's shouting "Let it go!" like a cosmic Elsa and urging us to rethink our materialistic ways.

So, no more digging in your heels, Taurus. It's time to embrace change, even if it feels like trying to hug a cactus. Remember, Uranus is not here to wreak havoc (okay, maybe a little), it's here to liberate us. And the changes it brings can lead us to greater stability. So buckle up, buttercups. We're all in for one heck of a cosmic ride!

Neptune Takes a Dip in Pisces

Greetings, intergalactic friends! Have you ever looked up at the night sky and thought, "What's Neptune up to these days?" Well, for those out of the astrological loop, our chilly, distant buddy Neptune has decided to take a leisurely swim in the constellation Pisces. This isn't just a casual doggy paddle - we're talking about a full-blown, high-dive plunge into the depths of emotional waters. Now, I know what you're thinking, "That's approximately 4,621,086,762.215121269km away from my current Netflix binge." But, don't you worry, I've got the deets right here.

Picture this: You're underwater, surrounded by an ethereal mist that’s more cosmic nebula than sea fog. Suddenly, a lightbulb moment! All those petty squabbles with your boss, your cat's passive-aggressive behavior, even that cryptic text from your ex... they all seem so insignificant now. The universe is vast, and your place in it is to contribute to the grand cosmic tapestry, not get hung up on trivialities. As if guided by some celestial compass, the path to unity and peace becomes as clear as a Vulcan's logic.

So, how can you, dear earthling, navigate these Neptunian waters? Firstly, take a deep dive into yourself. What gifts do you possess? What unique ideas or dreams have been orbiting your mind? Now's the time to tap into the collective cosmic consciousness and share these offerings. But remember, no man (or woman, or non-binary individual) is an island, or in our case, a solitary planet. We’re all in this galactic dance together.

Feeling a little out of your depth? Fear not! There's never been a better time to enroll in Jedi Mind Training 101 or build that TARDIS-inspired meditation space you've been dreaming about. Neptune in Pisces is your celestial cheerleader, encouraging you to explore your spiritual side and share your findings with the rest of the universe.

So, put on your astrological snorkel and prepare to dive deep! With Neptune in Pisces, the cosmos aren't just the final frontier, they're the ultimate healing spa retreat. Engage!

Pluto: The Aquarius Party Crasher

Okay folks, buckle up and strap on your space helmets because Pluto, that icy dwarf planet we all love to underestimate, has decided to crash the Aquarius party. Now, don't panic, but this might just be the celestial equivalent of your eccentric Uncle Bob showing up unannounced at your meticulously planned dinner party.

You see, Pluto isn't just about small changes, oh no. This isn't your Aunt Mildred's new hairdo. This is full-scale, rip-it-up-and-start-again transformation. Pluto is that guy at the party who, after one too many cosmic cocktails, suggests a game of Truth or Dare, and suddenly everyone's revealing their deepest secrets and doing the Macarena in their underwear.

Meanwhile, Aquarius is over there, busy being the progressive idealist, dreaming of space travel, hoverboards, and universal Wi-Fi coverage. With Pluto gate-crashing, things are going to get interesting. We're talking worldwide shifts in science, technology, and even civil rights. It's like when you're playing a board game, and someone flips the table - things are going to be different.

In your personal life, Pluto in Aquarius might feel like you've been given a cosmic wake-up call from a very persistent alien telemarketer. It’s pushing us to reconsider our GPS coordinates in the universe. Sure, it's natural to think about what's best for us - like whether to eat pizza or salad (spoiler: the answer is always pizza). But what if we started thinking about what's best for the whole planetary team? That's the kind of radical shift this Pluto-Aquarius combo meal is serving up.

So, will we pick up the phone and join this universal conference call? Or will we put it on silent mode and hope the universe leaves us a voicemail? Either way, make sure you're ready for some cosmic surprises!

The Sun

Sun Opposite Moon

You must balance your emotions with your individuality. You may have difficulties today dealing with the opposite sex, authority figures or family members. Ego confrontations over emotional issues are likely to be the cause. Vitality may be low today, so keep stress to a minimum. Try to understand others' points of view before expressing your own. Get in touch with your true feelings. Emotional impulses may interfere with objective and good judgment.People born when the Sun opposes the Moon have an internal struggle between their needs and their wants. In contrast to the Sun-Moon conjunction personality, the Full Moon personality is inclined towards lack of focus and indecision. Their ability to be objective is both an asset and a liability, simply because when they decide on one route, they are pulled in another direction at the same time. Something tugs at them, and they begin to question their stance. “But what if…” and “on the other hand…” are statements they can’t help making and that plague them. While Sun conjunct Moon people have an Aries style about them, Sun opposition Moon natives have a distinct Libra energy about them, in that they are always aware of the opposing point of view, the other side of the coin, and so forth.Their inner struggle is most obvious in their vitality, as both the Sun and the Moon strongly influence the vitality. They have many ups and downs, and it is hard to know if it is physical or emotional. In fact, it’s likely both. These people might spend a week working hard, and the following week they lack motivation and find it hard to accomplish much. Their energy fluctuates more than most people, and it is very much a reflection of what is going on inside.The messages they received in their early lives in terms of what was expected of them were conflicting, and even opposite. Some people born under the Full Moon viewed their parents as two very different and separate individuals who each wanted something very different from their child. Their parents or parent figures “stood for” two very different things, and their child internalized this. There may have been some emotional frustration in connection with the father and a stifling of the go by the mother.It is hard for Sun opposition Moon people to find happiness within themselves. They tend to look outside of themselves for fulfillment. They are inclined to form serious relationships at an early age, simply because of this tendency to try to find an answer to happiness from an “other”. They are prone to divorce, partly because of this prematurity, and partly because their needs are complicated. Full Moon people are also more apt to seek counseling because of this need to find answers.These people appear to be very self-aware. They entertain a myriad of different points of view and perspectives. They are excellent psychologists and are able to read character and uncover motivations–but with an important caveat: if they are too emotionally close to the situation, they fumble. The truth is, although they appear to know much about how people tick, they spend a good part of their lives uncovering more of themselves and learning about themselves. Generally, this is done through comparisons or through the mirror of relationships.They can most certainly frustrate the people who are close to them with their indecisiveness and frequent changes of mind (and of heart). A word to those who deal with this on a day-to-day basis: their changes of heart are not a form of insincerity–they are the result of an internal struggle that is very real and very confusing to live with! Sun opposition Moon people can be temperamental, insecure, and very sensitive. The ability to put themselves in someone else’s shoes, and to consider other points of view, is a true asset. However, at some point in their lives, they need to uncover what it is they truly want. This comes easy to New Moon people, and can be a life-long struggle for Full Moon people. On the other hand, it is extremely easy for a Full Moon personality to understand others’ points of view–something that doesn’t come as easily to a New Moon personality. Sun opposition Moon people are generally interesting and complex. Born under a Full Moon, they can be a bit “loony”, perhaps manifesting itself in a unique sense of humor.Look for a planet that might trine and sextile the Sun-Moon opposition for a way to release the tension the opposition creates. Somehow, some way, through that planet, its sign, and its house position, the Sun opposition Moon person can find an “answer” to the struggle. Look also to the sign polarity involved for more details of the struggle. If it’s Aries and Libra, for example, there is a conflict between two equal drives to be independent and to depend on others.Some Famous People with Sun Opposition Moon: Lisa Bonet (the aspect is exact, or partile), Barry Bonds, Billy Ray Cyprus, Kirk Douglas, Alicia Witt.People born with a Sun-Moon tension can spend much of their lives struggling to balance the principles of the Sun and the Moon within their personalities, and will bring this struggle to some degree into their relationships. The urge to form meaningful relationships is generally powerful, but relationships can be as much of a struggle to these natives as the inner conflict is to themselves. This inner conflict occurs with the square, opposition, and quincunx. The desire to find meaningful relationships is stronger than it is when the natal Sun and Moon form a sextile or trine, and early relationships, in particular, can be challenging until the stressful aspects are recognized as an inner tension.A woman with Sun opposition Moon, who had lived through her parents’ difficult divorce as a child, complained that her husband seemed to be quite complacent about their marriage, simply expecting that it would work out without much effort. His Sun and Moon form a sextile. When faced with a relationship problem, her instinct was to work on it actively, but her husband did not see such a need. In fact, he did not “see” the problems as clearly as his wife did. He felt that she was looking for problems that didn’t exist, while she felt he was taking the relationship for granted by not addressing problems as they arose.A stressful Sun-Moon aspect seems to imprint the native with the (often unconscious) expectation that relationships can very easily fail, and the natives will be especially aware of conflicts in partnership, taking them to heart. The upside of this natal conflict is found in this sensitivity itself! Those with a Sun-Moon opposition, in particular, are generally willing to work out problems in a relationship due to their acute awareness and sensitivity to the conflicts that arise in their partnerships. However, if they face a partner who denies the problems exist in the first place, as in the example above, they can easily become frustrated. This is because learning and growing through relationships is a basic urge – so basic that it is a need. These natives are learning about themselves through their relationships, and need partners who are willing to be a part of that process. Sun square Moon suggests an internal “war” between two equally powerful desires: the desire for emotional commitment and the desire for autonomy. The native can be quite defensive and even belligerent with others, and often over-sensitive, which can take its toll in personal relationships. Partners may complain that the native often seems to be spoiling for a fight, and relationships can be turbulent until the native learns to compromise.

The Sun

Sun Sextile Pluto

You can make important changes in your life and in yourself today. The force of your will and the perception to see what needs changing combine to give you the ability to do whatever is required. Regeneration is possible in any area of your life. Change that bad habit, eliminate what is unnecessary or outmoded. You have the force with you today. Group activities can be especially rewarding today as you can help make the groups' goals a reality. People in authority are receptive to changes today. Lay that new idea on them.It is easy and natural for those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto to find a passion and pursue it, and to focus on a goal. These people are not much scared of anything. They enjoy and embrace growth, especially of the psychological kind. They love a good mystery, and they are adept at solving it. Many people with these aspects feel they have a “calling” or destiny. They readily assign meaning to what others might consider “ordinary” events. They look for symbols, and read between the lines in most any situation. The physical vitality is generally strong, and the body is usually able to heal quickly.Others tend to respect those born under a harmonious aspect between the Sun and Pluto. They are not afraid to get their hands dirty, and they are usually quick to help others–not only with mundane tasks, but also on a spiritual or psychological level. Their insight is sharp and sometimes awe-inspiring. These are perceptive people who are not easily rattled or surprised in life. They are not do-gooders, and they are unlikely law-breakers. However, they are not afraid of the “dark side” of human nature, and they will bend the rules from time to time if they feel the need to do so. Many take particular pleasure in growth and life’s lessons. They are not fond of superficiality, and are generally the first to spot pretense of any kind. Some experiment with their powers to deceive at some early point in their lives, but generally grow in their strength and integrity. In fact, many do their best to rid themselves of any self-delusion that we are all susceptible to at times. These people are passionate and can be intense. They have a hunger to experience more than just an “ordinary” life, and they can be quite ambitious. Some are perfectionists, demanding much from themselves and reasonable amounts of effort and honesty from others.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon the talents of this aspect when necessary, and those with the trine have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Famous People with Sun in easy aspect to Pluto: Sextiles – Christina Aguilera, Lisa Bonet, Bob Dylan; Trines – Ed Asner, James Caan, Nicolas Cage, Michael Caine, Susan Dey, Sam Donaldson, Chris Evert, Bette Midler.Note from Annie: I have perhaps used more words to describe Sun-Pluto aspects than I have with other planetary aspects. This is because I grew up with astrology books that offered rather dire and extreme descriptions of the aspects. Because of this, I had problems identifying with the interpretations of my own Sun conjunction Pluto as being “power-hungry”, “dominating”, and “controlling”. Some descriptions suggested an attraction to crime. Except in extreme cases, Sun-Pluto people are not extremists hell-bent on destroying or dominating everyone around them. However, they do need to come to terms with their “dark side”, their intense fears, and their tendency to be very self-protective. A more humane and psychological approach to defining the aspects can be found in many modern astrology books, and I think it is very beneficial, especially since one of the main challenges to overcome with Sun-Pluto is for the rational ruler of light (the Sun) to identify with the energies of the ruler of dark (Pluto). Nobody benefits if descriptions of the aspects are so extreme that they are quickly dismissed as “wrong”.

Venus

Venus Sextile Jupiter

Peace and harmony should be yours today. People love you and you love them. You will go out of your way to help others today because you are full of friendliness and you want to see others happy. Financial transactions go smoothly today and you seem to attract money or material possessions. Relationships are warm and there is love in the air.These people have an easy smile, a warm and responsive sense of humor, and a rather easygoing manner when they’re feeling comfortable. Although they are unlikely to seek out people to help, they’re quite quick to lend a helping hand if the need arises. It’s natural for these people to incorporate humor into romantic and sexual moments, and they don’t always understand more serious approaches. They are capable of much romance, but playfulness comes naturally to them. They can be extravagant, at times, with their pocketbook, but usually have the good sense to stop before things get out of hand. They expect to grow in their social and personal relationships. Stagnation makes little if any sense to them. Their appreciation for the good things in life is evident but not excessive. Often people with these aspects are in a position to offer opportunities to others, usually with regards to work and career.The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon these traits when needed, and those with the trine between the Venus and Jupiter have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report — Your magnetic nature attracts others to you, and you are popular without making much effort. Sharing your spiritual joy does not have to involve sharing on the physical level.Some Famous People with Venus in Harmonious Aspect to Jupiter: Sextiles – Dane Rudhyar, Mary Pickford, Keanu Reeves, Edith Piaf, Geraldine Page, Clara Barton, Ty Cobb, Alfred Adler; Trines – Troy Aikman, Gene Hackman, Bob Hope, Martin Scorcese, Socrates.

Venus

Venus Conjunct Saturn

You may feel depressed today regarding your relationships with other people. If you are feeling unloved or unlovable, remember that you first have to give love before you can get love. And not the selfish kind of love that asks for something in return. Trust yourself and take steps today to see the good in you. If you cannot value yourself, how do you expect others to value you? Coldness in love affairs is possible today, but the effects of this aspect do not last long.On a personal level, these people hold back free expression of their feelings, especially with regard to expressions of love. Mind you, they are masters of compromise, duty, and responsibility to their mates, and it is through this dedication that they do in fact express their love. Often, there is some form of deprivation in the childhood, associated with either mother or father, or both. Most commonly, the child absorbs something from the parents’ relationship that results in a deep sense of obligation towards the mate and emotional reserve. Fear of letting go, enjoying the moment, and expressing love openly is strong. Although this aspect in classical astrology is associated with a delayed marriage or loneliness, I see it much more frequently in the charts of people who do indeed “partner”, often early, and who stick to the relationship through thick and thin. Often, they are lonely even though they are partnered. Commonly as well, they bend to a demanding partner much of their lives. There is fear associated with love, and many people with this position struggle with a lack of confidence. One of their greatest fears is rejection. Another reason why they might remain loyal to a challenging marriage can be a fear of letting down family and of what he or she feels would be a blow to the reputation. Sometimes, material concerns are connected with relationships. Some stick to relationships because they give them a sense of material security. Self-sacrifice is extremely common with this position. However, even though they crave more than anything to be loved unconditionally, their conviction that they won’t get that kind of love keeps them from really trying to find it. With Saturn, there is a simultaneous fear of failure and fear of success that keeps people from feeling free or brave enough to go after what they truly want.There can be a somewhat detached manner, and many people with this aspect (especially men) can come across as skeptical, matter-of-fact, and even superficial on a social level. They are masters at protecting their feelings, and do whatever they can to avoid letting others know of their vulnerabilities. Of course, this kind of defense mechanism further prevents them from finding happiness in love. It is so very hard for them to let down their defenses. They’ll need to really know where they stand with you before they can feel at least somewhat safe. Negative expectations in love must be handled in order to begin work on handling this aspect. The good news with Saturn is that its energy is handled better with time and maturity. These people should make a conscious effort to evaluate their behavior. If they admit to themselves that they do in fact want and need to be loved by a partner, they can work on slowly dropping their defenses. For example, keeping loved ones at arm’s length and pretending that you are just fine on your own isn’t going to encourage intimacy. Jumping to negative conclusions or withdrawing emotionally when an expression of warmth is not received exactly as you intended is not going to help either. It’s also a good idea to examine the choice of partners. There can be an unconscious attraction to people who love you for all the wrong reasons–for superficial or material reasons. Maintaining “business-like” love relationships somehow keeps people with these aspects feeling safe, but they unfortunately perpetuate a deep feeling of loneliness and unworthiness.With the conjunction, and especially with supporting aspects from other planets, these people have every opportunity to advance in their chosen career. Business sense is strong, especially in the areas of finance and the arts. Commitment, whether to a pet project, a job, a business, or a person, is characteristic.Alternate interpretations:*Intimacy does not come easily to you and you may appear cold or unfeeling to others due to your emotional reserve and caution. Perhaps due to painful relationships and separations in your early life, you do not trust others very easily and it takes a long time to take down all of your barriers and defenses. You may feel that you have few friends or people that really care about you. You need to learn to value and love yourself more and to express your appreciation for others more openly.#You are reserved. You don’t jump into a spiritual practice any more than you jump into a love relationship. You may do best with a spiritual teacher who is much older or younger than yourself. You accept endings as a necessary part of life.
