GENERAL PLANETARY INFLUENCES

Not a great deal of changes in the planets movements this week, apart from the Moon passing through signs approximately every 2 ½ days. Mercury, Uranus and Neptune all continue to travel Retrograde, which can cause some confusion, tendencies to off at ‘abstract’ angles in personal behaviour, and to be easily distracted, so complete honesty to ensure understanding is helpful. For this reason apart from the changes in planetary aspects, the horoscopes may seem very similar to last weeks, but more movement in the coming weeks.

The Sun is now about two thirds of the way through charismatic, diplomatic, but undecisive Libra, with a need for peace and quiet.

The Moon starts the week in light-hearted, talkative, agreeable Gemini. On Tuesday it moves into caring, emotional, defensive & sensitive Cancer, with a Last Quarter Moon on Wednesday, making us focus on personal goals. On Friday the Moon moves into domineering, exuberant, melodramatic Leo. On Sunday it moves into responsive, inquisitive, logical Virgo, finishing the week there.

Mercury is now traveling Retrograde through diplomatic, peace-loving, harmonious Libra, staying there until early November, causing some communication problems, and indecision.

Venus is now settled in diplomatic, persuasive, sensual Libra, until the middle of next week.

Mars is about two thirds of it’s way through resolute, avid, flexible, but cynical Sagittarius, with a need to find use energy constructively.

Jupiter is now over half way through compassionate, outgoing, positive, understanding Leo, staying there until well into 2015.

Saturn remains in responsible, shrewd, strong-willed Scorpio, until the end of 2014. It is now traveling Direct, enabling self expansion in some respects.

Uranus remains in assertive, blunt, energetic, self-willed Aries, for several years, and can make us individualistic and rebellious, unexpected events or disruptive emotional matters, may distract us, or help us see things differently. Uranus is currently travelling Retrograde until December, helping us be more imaginative, and come up with ingenious, creative ideas.

Neptune remains in compassionate, sensitive, intuitive Pisces for the foreseeable future, and helps us gradually develop more empathy, compassion, and build understanding, in a wide variety of ways, but shows a need to remain realistic. Neptune is now traveling Retrograde until Mid December, indicating boundaries between reality and illusion, causing possible confusion, with a need to remain realistic.

Pluto remains in Capricorn for quite a few years, so is a very long term influence, showing knowledge gradually acquired on deeper levels, with more realistic ways of recycling & developing our intuitive knowledge further, to use practically.
