Today we have a MAJOR re-alignment of energies.

Uranus (in Taurus) stations retrograde (through January 2020), Jupiter stations direct (in Sagittarius through December 2019) and Mercury returns to Leo (our third time at zero degrees Leo).

Let's unpack this and start with Mercury.

Mercury first entered Leo back on June 26th then she/he turned around a few days later (stationed retrograde) moved back through the early degrees of Leo and then back into Cancer then stopped again (stationed direct). We are back at 0 degrees Leo late this afternoon. We won't be covering totally new ground for a few more days - but back into Leo means our Leo story - our creative projects/ideas, bold/courageous words, Leo themed situation (or the theme of your Leo or Sun house in your natal chart) moves forward - children, romance, love, creativity, recreation, the space of our natural spotlight, our heart, what our heart wants. Something will pick up where it came to a stop/pivot back in late June.  

It's time to be moving forward.

Jupiter, in his home sign of Sagittarius for ONLY a few more months (through December 2nd), has been retrograde since April 10th. He now stations direct (starts moving forward) from 14 degrees Sag. That Sag theme (what is foreign, high education, media, weddings, our beliefs, legal issues religion, travel) - or maybe more likely the theme of the Sag house in your natal chart or the theme of the house ruled by Jupiter in your natal chart - changes course. Interacting with Mercury just before Mercury changes signs - this could be the time we get an unexpected/sudden piece of information we need to move forward. Maybe we see (Mercury) an opportunity to expand (Jupiter). If we have been wronged, here is the energy to get us justice (just don't spend too much energy looking for it because other people's justice may not be visible to us - an example would be Epstein's suicide which will likely, coming at this time, expand this story in ways it couldn't if it stayed focused on him). If an area of expansion shut down last spring here is where the wheels start spinning again. An opportunity, that seemed lost, can come back around. There could be an opportunity to learn more/connect with something that expands our reach/get lucky. Jupiter in his home sign only happens once every 12 years - there is alot of other stuff greedy for our attention, but we don't want to miss THIS.

Stuck stuff gets going. It's time to be moving forward.

Uranus, from 6 degrees Taurus, stations retrograde until January 2020. What is the theme of your Taurus ruled house? What is the theme of the house Uranus rules in your natal chart? If you don't know,  ask me and I will check your chart. Collectively Taurus rules our money, our resources, what we have earned, our values, our self-esteem, the planet Earth. There is a change of direction here. Uranus is unpredictable - any unexpected lightning strike could take us in a bold new direction or remove all the excitement/energy from a forward-leaning project/situation. For some people changes that hit unexpectedly over the last few months will slow down or be put on hold. If we are directly impacted by Uranus's back and forth over a sensitive planet or point in our natal chart - changes could intensify. For most people changes move from the outer to the inner realms.

The Moon moved into serious and goal-oriented Capricorn last night. She will trine (brakes off) a strong and still Uranus today at 1:36PM EDT - expect the unexpected. This is practical creative energy and will help us ground these changes in the real world. This is a good time to re-launch something or move something into a NEW PHASE.

We have an amazing week ahead with Venus meeting the Sun and a Full Moon in Aquarius! Expect a post tonight or Monday morning.
