How will this week’s planetary influences be affecting you? Thank goodness Mercury will no longer be retrograde! Mercury turned retrograde April 28th and has been causing havoc for many of us. This week, it goes direct so we can anticipate our stalled plans moving forward again especially when it comes to finances.
Love planet Venus moves into Gemini on Tuesday. While Venus visits Gemini, and depending on how this influence affects other planets in your natal chart, your social life could be very stimulating! You might find yourself connecting with a wide variety of friends, and enjoying an assortment of activities. Curiosity is high, and you’re eager to try new experiences and learn about different subjects.
Take care on Thursday, especially in any work related matters as Jupiter forms a square to Saturn putting strict limits on all the fun, travel, expansion and adventure we usually expect from Jupiter. What we want to do interferes with what we should do. What we actually do is a measure of our maturity (ah! a Saturn test). We struggle to envelop both the big and the small, the inner and the outer. The answer, of course, is somewhere in middle.
On Friday, Mars moves backwards into Scorpio. Mars is the warrior planet and when the warrior turns retrograde, the fight becomes more of an internal one. For some, Mars retrograde in Scorpio suggests the re-appearance of a former lover, disrupting an existing relationship. Jealousy, whether warranted or not, is another expression of Martian anger, usually kept under control but let loose during the retrograde period.
