Cosmic Calendar

Yesterday’s second Gemini New Moon of 2012 should have provided you with a strong forward momentum. However, Venus now makes an off-kilter, 150-degree link to distant Pluto (4:19AM PDT) while Mercury squares Saturn (9:06AM PDT). With friends like these, who needs enemies? The Venus-Pluto and Mercury-Saturn clashes are warning signals to be extra careful if you are a wheeler-dealer in stocks, bonds and delicate business matters. Romantic ties and relationships in general may also be rattled by these two planetary conflicts.

Mercury forming a flowing trine with Juno in water signs (3:35PM PDT) represents one saving grace and extra support system across the board. Another major event is the Sun switching its zodiacal allegiance from airy Gemini to watery Cancer (4:10PM PDT) at the sacred turning point known as the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. With the Sun and Moon now in Cancer, find more time to rejoice in nature’s gardens, forests, parks, seaside resorts, and hiking trails.

Romantic longings make a comeback since Venus makes a supportive, 60-degree liaison with revelatory Uranus (5:56PM PDT) while the Moon parallels Venus (9:11PM PDT). Even a seemingly frictional 45-degree link from Mercury to Venus (6:20PM PDT) might be tweaked to help give comfort and nurturance to your love life and family ties.

Get set for another rollicking 24-hour, carnival-like psychic atmosphere tomorrow when several challenging and favorable aspects vie for supremacy.
