Astrological Update on 29th May 2023
Until 6th June, the ability to express ideas or be creative may be moderated while there is a tense link between the Sun in Gemini and Saturn in Pisces. However, this is an opportunity to build a sense of true identity, of being spirit living in a physical body. Everyday conversations may include wisdom perceived from higher spheres of life.
Over much of the next two weeks, there could be many novel and original ideas. Discussions could revolve around the economy, agriculture and the use of the Earth’s resources. All of this is in an attempt to bring greater stability to life and increase the sense of security. It relates to the proximity of Mercury and Uranus, both of which are in Taurus.
It is a time when thoughts may turn to reforming traditional methods or tried and tested ways of doing things. This can be a fertile period, particularly if those new ideas are methodically assessed to see how realistic they are. There could be a sense of transcending old limitations through an intuitive awareness of what might be better.
Throughout the next two weeks the understanding of goodness may change from one frequently centred on material values to one that includes intangible qualities such as kindness and compassion or understanding of realms beyond the physical. There may be greater determination to overcome doubts and fears. These changes are associated with a link between Jupiter in Taurus and Saturn in Pisces.
Another planetary interaction present over the next fortnight is an opposition between Venus and retrograde Pluto. Initially, Venus is in Cancer moving into Leo on 5th June while Pluto moves back from Aquarius into Capricorn on 11th of the month. Simply put, this can relate to harmony, power and transformation but this dynamic opposition is worthy of deeper consideration.
While Venus is in Cancer, harmony and peace come through caring actions. These are not just for loved ones. The opposition to Pluto in Aquarius accentuates caring for the brotherhood of all life. The power of love is enormous. When Venus moves into Leo, love is emphasised as it is the soul lesson of this fire sign. However, a love of being the centre of attention could be at odds with the needs of society.
When Pluto moves back into Capricorn, there is a return to energies experienced between 2008 and earlier in 2023. This helps to ensure that the valuable lessons of that time have been thoroughly incorporated. For a few months, there may be greater emphasis on the ambitions of large organisations and establishments rather than what is best for society. This goes on until January 2024 when Pluto re-enters Aquarius.
The pull across the Venus-Pluto opposition may be more noticeable for a few hours on 7th June when the Moon is close to Pluto. It could be a time to examine values and what is valued, power and the best use of personal power. There may be old thought patterns or behaviours that could be eliminated at this time.
Venus forms a harmonious link with Neptune until 11th June. While Venus is in Cancer, gentleness, caring and intuition may be easier to express. There can be a deep love for, and an awareness of, the oneness of all life. The artistic energy of the Venus-Neptune link is particularly highlighted when Venus moves into Leo on 5th June.
A tense interaction between Mars in Leo and Jupiter in Taurus can be interpreted at several levels. At one level, there could be a desire to express supremacy or wish to dominate others. At another level, could be a strong need to express creativity. There could also be a great deal of energy directed into bringing love to Earth. The energy of this interaction can be used to improve self as well as the life of other people.
The full Moon is in Sagittarius on 4th June. The Sun is in Gemini at this time. This is a wonderful opportunity to bring wisdom to Earth. Honesty and truth, optimism and positivity so linked with Sagittarius, as well as an urge to explore the essence of life, can be incorporated into everyday living. It is an opportunity to feel a connection to the magnificence of life.
The nature of the south node of the Moon in Scorpio and the north node of the Moon in Taurus are being highlighted by interactions to several planets. Much energy is being available to bring about transformation. This may take some effort but with the involvement of Saturn, this can be done carefully and thoroughly.
Life on Earth is evolving and there is much determination to bring about the best possible outcome.
Keep well, stay happy.
