A warm hello.

There are some interesting planetary shifts in the next 7 days:

Jupiter will move back into Pisces until just before Christmas; it will be worth your while to revisit ‘Big Planets, Big News’ on my YouTube channel to remind you of all this has to offer you.

Mercury will join Venus and the Sun in Scorpio, which will accentuate a growing focus – a personal interest, goal, new plans or a relationship.

The planet Mars Stationary/ turning retrograde makes Mars a feature – this will bring full-on action and a turning-point with a matter or undertaking that’s already demanding.

The Moon will move on to align with both Pluto and Saturn, which will bring old or unfinished business to the fore; it will be time for a fresh initiative.

​ARIES.   The Sun, Venus, Mercury emphasis falls here: expensive plans, a complex financial enterprise and generous gestures may all have extra elements to consider; it’ll take patient attention to details to work through these.   Going further afield or bringing plans with a relative too far away to fruition will take a super effort; something it’s important to learn or master will require a special effort too.    A meeting too long coming will break new ground; you’ll have to think carefully about your approach.
TAURUS.   Here are the Sun, Mercury and Venus – they are transiting your relationship zone: you’ll give more and more of yourself to your mate, a relative, family issues, conversations and commitments; you’ll think about them constantly, to work out how best to support them or handle issues between you.     The pressure will be on, to sort out unfinished financial business or there may be an expense you’ve been preparing for.   Keeping a promise or taking the reins of a project or situation that’s been stuck may ask more of you than you thought.
GEMINI.   The Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio accent your 6th house, this will shine a light on work or health matters – a new opportunity on the job will open the way to show what you can do, climb the ladder of success and cultivate an important professional connection; a health, diet or fitness pursuit will grow.   The planet Mars in your Zodiac Sign could bring a situation where you need to stand up for yourself or you’ll need to initiate action with a matter or plans you’re keen to address.   In a situation where your hands have been tied, you’ll need to try a bold new approach.
CANCER.   With the Sun, Venus and Mercury here, you’ll pour energy into a reunion, long awaited get-together or special plans with a loved one that have been a long time unfolding; there’ll be more and more details to sort out.   There’ll be more to some domestic tasks, repairs or family duties than expected, a health pursuit may require extra effort too.   With a financial matter, arrangement or large outlay that’s been on your mind, it will be time for some proactive organisation.
LEO.   The Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio here indicate that family involvement will grow; there may be a special occasion, event or project with an important emotional focus.   Alternatively, a domestic undertaking will grow as it surges ahead!   A fun outing, activity or get-together may take more energy and planning than you thought but you’ll throw yourself into it!   A commitment with someone close that you take seriously but is also wearing or challenging in some way will require a fresh burst of effort.
VIRGO.   The Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio here indicate there’ll be a new dimension to an exciting project that’s gathering momentum; this will be a learn-as-you-go experience but a mentor or knowledgeable associate will have some valuable input.   Hefty financial pressures or an expensive undertaking will stretch your resources; keep a clear overview to keep it under control and on track.   With a big task or a health goal that you’ve been wrestling with, it will take resourceful, experimental efforts to break through!
LIBRA.   The Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio fall here in your 2nd house, the money zone: a financial offer, new client or venture could bring in extra money but there may be special outlays, especially on beautiful or sentimental things, gifts for loved ones and a special celebration.   Legal business or a contract could forge ahead; travel plans will gather exciting momentum.   A get-together a long time coming will be an opportunity to lay an old upset to rest.
SCORPIO.   With the Sun, Venus and Mercury in your Zodiac Sign, this is your time – YOU will shine in a new way, career and personal opportunities will drop in your lap and a growing relationship will become more meaningful.   There may be a financial boost, a surge of action with important financial business but also extra expenses; a contract or complex financial paperwork will need patient attention to details.   A domestic or family project may have stalled; it will be time for fresh energy and enthusiasm.
SAGITTARIUS.   Mercury, the Sun and Venus in Scorpio here in your 12th house, denotes reflective periods – you’ll reconsider or replan a long-term goal and a family or domestic project, you’ll think a lot about the past, a reunion will need thoughtful input as well.   Big plans with someone dear will take a special effort, a relationship may try your patience.   An overdue conversation will be your chance to address a lingering upset or frustration with another and reset your relationship.
CAPRICORN.   The Sun, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio here should bring good news, fun plans with friends, a helpful new association will grow, a new friendship will unfold and the way will open to do something or go somewhere you really want.   Work pressures could rev up though, a labour of love for a family member or your mate will ask a lot of you and a health pursuit or physical task will put you through your paces.   A financial commitment may be restrictive but pushing on will move you closer to your goal.
AQUARIUS.   Mercury joining the Sun and Venus in Scorpio here could bring a career opportunity – the chance to show more of what you can do, earn extra or be part of an ambitious project.   You’ll also throw yourself into special plans with a loved one and enjoy a fun outing or get-together.    A surprise turn of events will bring the opportunity to resolve some unfinished business.
PISCES.   Mercury joining the Sun and Venus in Scorpio here will be expansive – a new interest or new information and options with an unfolding project, exploring a new social scene and meeting interesting people will broaden your horizons; travel plans could also grow or broader communication could expand a long-distance relationship.   A surge of family involvement or a surge of action with a domestic undertaking will make home a busy place to be.   The chance to address an old problem or a niggling misunderstanding with another will be welcome but you’ll have to lead the way.

A warm hello.
The Sun and Moon together in early Scorpio this week form a partial Solar Eclipse.   The planet Venus is also in early Scorpio.   This combination, the Sun, Moon and Venus, along with the passion of Scorpio indicate we’ll put a lot of love into what we’re doing and our relationships, plus an emotional intensity, sense of purpose and very specific goals will colour our approach; be mindful, don’t’ let too much intensity take away the joy.
Wishing you joy,
Karen

SAGITTARIUS.   The partial Solar Eclipse with Venus is here in your 12th house points to a long-awaited get-together; this could launch a new chapter with someone you’ve shared much with in the past.   Timely discussions will steer you with fun plans on the drawing board and offer more ideas.   With a project that’s been a slow learn-as-you-go experience, a mentor will help you break new ground.
CAPRICORN.   The partial Solar Eclipse with Venus falls here: a fun encounter or plans will open the way to foster a new friendship or a friendship you’d like to revive.   Complex discussions on the job or with an ambitious project will be opportune, enlightening but also challenging.   With a financial commitment that’s been hard going, there may still be a way to go, but you’ll start to gain the upper hand.
AQUARIUS.   Here is the partial Solar Eclipse with Venus – professional or business interactions will be opportunities to build PR; a new connection or a relationship that’s been problematic could take an important turn.    Listening to interesting and informative people, with their knowledge and expertise, will bring a feast of new ideas that tempt you to explore new personal possibilities.   With a family duty, or personal task that’s been wearing, some much needed progress will light the way forward.

A warm hello.
It will seem like there’s endless talk this week!
It’s all the Air Signs – the Sun, Venus and Mercury in Libra, Saturn in Aquarius and Mars in Gemini – 5 in all!
These will encourage us to share our thoughts and debate our issues; we’ll hear different points of view and if we stay open to new ideas, we’ll learn from others’ input and advice.
For the very best results and breakthroughs in communication, it will need to be an equal two-way process.
Wishing you joy,
Karen

A warm hello.

Each time the Moon transits Gemini, until the end of March 2023, it will conjunct the planet Mars.   This weekend, it will do just this and bring a fresh surge of action in an area of your life that’s already busy, even full on!

With all this Libra - a discussion that calls for you to clarify your intentions or issues with another will also test your listening abilities.

The Moon forms different aspects moving through these Zodiac Signs - watch out for stumbling blocks; there may be situations that need thoughtful give-and-take.

​ARIES.   The Moon conjuncts Mars again falls here in your 3rd house: travelling extra distances or exploring new places will take plenty of effort but it will bring fun adventures, encounters and discoveries.   A sharing exchange or confidence from someone dear will explain something you haven’t understood; it will add a new awareness to your relationship.   There’ll be a situation to play by ear on the home front; it may require an awkward change of plans.
TAURUS.   The Moon conjunct Mars in Gemini falls here in your 2nd house: there’ll be action financially – large or spontaneous outlays and progress with a financial matter you’re keen to resolve.   Enlightening discussions on the job will guide you with an exciting but challenging endeavour; a knowledgeable colleague will offer helpful advice.   You may also gain interesting information or direction with a health, diet or fitness goal.   A hassle or frustrating issue will try your patience; keeping our cool will help it to pass quickly.
GEMINI.   With the Moon conjunct Mars in your Zodiac Sign again, it’s time for more proactive efforts – you’ll have to be the one, to drive progress with a matter or undertaking that’s important to you!  Stimulating, informative discussions with someone whose talents or experience you admire will offer new ideas and tips with a project or interest that’s close to your heart.   A joyful occasion or fun plans will cost a pretty penny; watch the tendency to overspend.
CANCER.   The Moon conjunct Mars in Gemini again falls here: there may be a slow-moving, challenging issue you need to tackle patiently and purposefully - this may be a health, diet or fitness matter, a domestic or family task, or a goal you’re working towards.   Open family discussions will help you plan a family or domestic project; the input of different family members will give you much food for thought.   A surprise turn of events may touch emotional chords but it will hold an unexpected opportunity.
LEO.   With the Moon conjunct Mars here, you’ll thoroughly enjoy a fun outing, occasion or special get-together that’s also emotionally meaningful; you’ll learn more about a new friend or associate too and even build a new friendship.   Discussing an exciting new project and gathering information will help you refine your plans and move things along.   There may be a conversation you’ve been avoiding as well; handling this thoughtfully will take a weight off your mind.
VIRGO.   The Moon conjunct Mars here again indicates more big tasks ahead: you’ll need to push the pace, to get through a big job, keep a promise and work through a myriad of extra chores along the way.   An expansive financial discussion will explore new options with expensive plans, negotiate a good deal or set up a new financial arrangement.   A spontaneous outlay or purchase will come from the heart but take care you don’t leave yourself short.
LIBRA.   The Moon conjunct Mars here will energise travel plans or special plans with a distant loved one; it will be full steam ahead!   Exciting discussions will open the way to put forth your ideas and intentions with a new project on the drawing board; clear objectives but it will be the key to getting it off the ground.   A PR challenge on the job will test your communication skills.
SCORPIO.   The Moon conjunct Mars here this weekend will bring a crescendo of financial business – you’ll take an important financial step, but also there’ll be bills or expenses you need to get on top of.   With a major goal you’re working towards, a well organised time-line will keep you on track and send a clear message to others who need to be in the know.   An old misunderstanding with another could resurface; step lightly to defuse this.
SAGITTARIUS.   The Moon conjunct Mars here this weekend will bring a special family get-together or commitment; you’ll pour energy into building relations with relatives, or people they care about, and easing a few tensions as you go.   Invigorating discussions with a friend or helpful contact will offer all kinds of new ideas and possibilities with fun plans on the drawing board.    A thoughtless comment or criticism from another may touch a nerve; avoid reacting and the moment will pass.
CAPRICORN.   With the Moon conjunct Mars here, a physical task or health, diet of fitness endeavour will require a fresh surge of effort; a pressing task on the job or at home could require a huge effort too.   An advantageous exchange with a colleague will help you organise an ambitious career or personal project.   An inconvenient request or extra chores for someone close may ask a lot of you.   Financially, there could be an influx of funds but also extra expenses.
AQUARIUS.   The Moon conjunct Mars falls here – you’ll throw yourself into labours of love this weekend, to support a loved one or pursue an interest you love.   A timely conversation with a distant loved one will explain their situation more fully and help you arrange special plans you’re organising.   A sudden change of plans will test your flexibility; it’ll be advantageous to just go with the flow.
PISCES   The Moon conjunct Mars here in the 4th house this weekend will bring a surge of action with a domestic or family project and special purchases for your home, visitors could beat a path to your door as well. An important financial discussion will explain a complex financial matter or clarify the cost of big plans.   A generous gift or gesture will come from your heart; you may not want to compromise but it could stress the b

​A warm hello.
The mighty Saturn/Uranus square that was a planetary feature of last month and now this month, is being triggered; this could bring something most unexpected – surprise news, an unusual turn of events or a sudden challenge!
This may throw us out of our comfort zone in some way, introduce a new norm or be a pointer to a new norm, so it will serve us to look closely at new trends emerging, so we can gauge where they’re going and how best to handle them.
Wishing you joy,
Karen

​A warm hello.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and also Pluto are retrograde, but Pluto and Saturn are about to turn Direct. 
This means that matters we haven’t finished with will need fresh energy and possibly a change of tactics.
It’s time to look at what we need to get onto, stop avoiding or postponing, and what we need to do differently if we want to address and fix lingering, drawn-out issues effectively.
A big picture view will inspire new ways of handling these!
Wishing you joy,
Karen
