Weekly insights into the stars
There are very definite patterns unfolding at the moment as the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are all now travelling through the earth sign of Virgo. As some move faster than others they’re all playing catch up with each other, so there’s a series of conjunctions happening which are like hotspots in the bigger picture.
Venus, Mars, Sun and Mercury in that order are all aligning with Uranus this week, and just about anything could happen. Long live rebellion! If you’re sick of being a cog in a wheel, or running your life in a way that suits other people but is not that great for you, or if you’re working for a company with old style management, these aspects could be supremely helpful.
The love planets Venus and Mars come together, a union that happens only once every two years. The most important thing about this current conjunction in my view is that it’s serious. Virgo is not associated with being flighty or insincere. New relationships started at this time, especially if there’s been a long running attraction with one or both parties being super cautious, carry the hallmark of success.
Jupiter can work in disguise in the classic “clouds with silver linings” way. Even a rock bottom moment can actually turn out to be a liberation, the thing that makes us wake up and decide on change for the better. In terms of progress and results, and getting things back into manageable proportions, we can expect to see definite movement this week.
Venus and Mars together are known as the love planets – women are from Venus, men are from Mars! There are times when the differences between the two sexes are more obvious than others and this week is one of them.
