In the pre-dawn hours, the Leo moon squares off with Jupiter in Taurus, provoking undue optimism. This is one of the least challenging planetary squares. However, it can still cause us to be careless or naïve. We may be overly confident in our careers or within relationships. We risk delivering substandard quality work or taking our partners and loved ones for granted. Tomorrow is not promised, so remember to be thankful for what you have. Appreciate what you’ve got instead of assuming it will always be there.
After noon, love-planet Venus enters adventurous Sagittarius. Over the past three and a half weeks of Venus in Scorpio, we have sought romantic intensity. Love was an all-or-nothing prospect, contingent upon building trust and proving loyalty. We wanted to be pined for, to be lusted after. In turn, we aimed to discover everything we could about our partners’ dreams, stories, and desires. Now that we’ve satisfied our craving for psychological intimacy, the next step unfolds. Is our partner someone that we could see ourselves growing with? Are they a good travel companion and adventure buddy? Does rapport in the bedroom translate into rapport in the wider world? And can we discuss our beliefs with them, or will differences of opinion stall the connection? Relationships that begin now may be with someone from a different culture or religious background. We put more of a premium on having fun, sharing experiences, and making memories.
