A Winning Strategy Involves Creative Moves as Asteroid Pallas Enters Flashy Leo

May 2, 2023



At 9:56 a.m.: Pallas enters Leo

Late in the morning, wisdom asteroid Pallas enters the fixed fire sign Leo, encouraging creative strategizing! Pallas concerns about how we architect solutions to problems. In Leo terrain, we use drama and flair, pomp and circumstance, to achieve our aims. From now until July 9, we take the theatrical approach, dazzling our audience (and the competition)!  However, there may be a bit of sleight of hand happening here. We know that by steering everyone’s attention toward the flashy thing, we are better equipped to get less-popular ideas through the pipeline. The line between art and artifice is thin. Where tactics are concerned, make sure that your ego doesn’t override common sense at this time. Step back and get perspective to keep from making avoidable mistakes.

At 12:04 p.m.: Juno is trine Pluto

Just after noon, Juno in Gemini trines Pluto in Aquarius, intensifying contractual ties. We might believe we’ve “met our match”—and we might be right! Passionate engagements hinge on equal power dynamics. Where trust exists, there is no room for manipulation tactics to get a foothold.  Because we don’t feel threatened or expected to perform, we relate honestly, allowing intellectual curiosity to guide our interactions. Strong commitments are forged when we know which boundaries to push and which to respect. We’ll find ourselves transformed for the better through these relationships.
