After sun-up, Jupiter in Taurus sextiles Saturn in Pisces, one of the year’s most auspicious transits for long-term advancement! Jupiter is the planet of expansion, luck, and optimism. However, the Great Benefic’s influence also has a knack for stimulating unsustainable growth. In favorable aspect to Saturn, the planet of restraint and maturity, we’re presented with an ideal opportunity to cultivate initiatives with staying power. Under this fortunate connection, overnight success is not promised, however, big gains can be made over time. Indeed, something might occur today which affirms that we’re on the right track in a relationship, business, or creative endeavor. Have patience with your progress. This will allow you to net an achievement instead of burning yourself out. On the financial and career fronts, this day can be used for making investments or planning long-term projects.
The cosmic weather is then quiet until the evening, when the Cancer moon squares off with Chiron in Aries, stimulating tension. Touchy subject matter triggers sensitivities. We react as if we have been attacked, retracting into our crab shells and flashing our claws! We thought we had this insecurity in check! But clearly, we have more work to do. Although this realization is annoying in the immediate, we’re better off addressing it before it metastasizes into a problem capable of derailing our self-esteem or damaging our important relationships!
