Just after midnight, the Scorpio moon trines Saturn in Pisces, inspiring us to reflect upon the past. This influence supports respecting our elders, honoring our ancestors, and recognizing the value of preserving tradition. Saturn offers access to wisdom. We discern a common throughline between our history and our present. This would be an excellent time to visit a trusted advisor, psychologist, or even astrologer, for insights. However, since many of us will be asleep at this hour, we could receive potent guidance through our dreams.
In the morning, Venus in Leo squares off with Jupiter in Taurus, the second of three aspects the love planet will make with Jupiter during its retrograde cycle. The first aspect, on June 11, emphasized our need for attention and validation from others. Although this may have marked an occasion for making new friends or deepening a romantic interest, it also signaled a lack of discrimination in determining whose company to keep. Compliments, or even love-bombing, might have been the reason for initial attraction. Today, we’re given a chance to review and analyze our chosen relationships. Have we sacrificed self-respect for affection? Have we tried so hard to impress others that we’ve forgotten about our own needs? Or, on the flip side, have we been too demanding of others in pursuit of personal satisfaction? This is not a time for self-criticism. We are human, and we need love! However, we can harness this transit to ensure that our expectations are not only honest, but fair.
