What is breaking open this week?!
TUESDAY - Venus catches up with Jupiter near the end of Cancer (we talked about this 'luckiest day of the year' HERE) -
Venus and Jupiter coming together can increase abundance, generosity, affection, gratitude and HOPE.
Opportunities can come through relationships, women, creativity, money, beauty or even simple acts of kindness. NEWS FLASH - Growth doesn't always have to arrive through struggle, sometimes doors open because we are willing to receive. BE WILLING TO RECEIVE. At its core this is some kind of WORTHINESS UPGRADE. The shadow/flip side of this energy is some kind of excess, overpromising, overspending or assuming every possibility is guaranteed. Where are we expanding our capacity to receive and where are we merely expanding our appetite? Enjoy the blessing, but let's not mistake possibility for certainty.
Sometimes just the possibility shows up, for now, to allow us to get clear on what we really want.
WEDNESDAY - Mercury in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries. This sounds like DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS. Maybe home/stability vs independence. Mercury square Saturn asks us to slow down. Words/communications are serious/should be taken seriously. Maybe plans require revision or we hear or have to say "no". Deadlines, responsibilities and practical limitations demand attention. This is reality check energy. Keep in mind - Saturn's purpose is not to stop us. It is to strengthen what is going to endure. If Venus and Jupiter inspired some kind of vision, Mercury and Saturn asks us whether that vision can be built in REALITY and if it can last. There is always something like this with a big Jupiter aspect (like yesterday) - it's probably a necessary counterweight.
FRIDAY - Uranus in Gemini squares the North in Pisces and South Node in Virgo. This is the BIG ENERGY of the week. The Nodes of the Moon represent the karmic past and future. Uranus, the modern ruler of Aquarius, is all about awakening, liberation, shocks, breakthroughs, technology, rebellion and UNEXPECTED CHANGE.
So, here is a crossroad. CHOICES HAVE LASTING CONSEQUENCES. There can be fated disruptions - events that are unexpected but ultimately redirect us toward a better/more authentic future.
In evolutionary astrology a square to the Nodes of Fate is a skipped step in our collective evolution. We may be confronted with places/spaces where we've chosen safety over authenticity, control over trust or perfectionism over experimentation/faith/growth. Because Uranus is in Gemini, the disruption may arrive through information, conversations, technology, education, media, transportation, siblings, neighbors, it may be about two things at once. Uranus is chaotic, but not really about chaos for its own sake. It's really about freedom. Not freedom from responsibility (remember Saturn is the ancient and co-ruler of Aquarius), but freedom from old identities, old stories and old expectations that have outlived their usefulness.
THIS IS VERY MUCH A TIMELINE SPLIT - one path continues familiar patterns and the other requires courage, uncertainty and faith. Pay attention and choose your words carefully and with intention. Gemini can break things down into bite-sized pieces and offer multiple options.
SATURDAY - Venus at the very end of Cancer squares Chiron in Aries and then moves into Leo. After the expansive Venus/Jupiter conjunction, Venus now meets wounded healer Chiron. Questions of worth, love, belonging, self-esteem and value may emerge. A wound may surface that is ready for us to see differently. Venus/Chiron often reveals places/spaces where we have confused our value with our performance, our productivity, our appearance, our possessions or SOMEONE ELSE'S APPROVAL. This is a kind of prequel to the bigger prequel that is Chiron into Taurus in 2026. We talked about that HERE. Chironic healing doesn't mean the wound disappears, but it does mean we STOP organizing our lives around it.
Immediately after confronting the wound/ouch Venus heads into fiery Leo. This feels important and part of the Chiron into Taurus story in a way, too. Leo reminds us that our heart/our Sun was never meant to hide. After Chiron exposes insecurities/vulnerabilities, Venus in Leo encourages us to be more authentic/creative/playful. With Venus here, Leo Suns and rising signs are more naturally attractive (ie easy on the eye and able to attract) and all of our Leo houses (soon to host beneficial Jupiter) become more attractive. too. We attract what we want and need (Venus) through Leo - so by standing out, standing up, being passionate, taking the world by storm, roaring - you get the idea.
SUNDAY - the week ends with a New Moon in Gemini (conjunct Israel's Uranus EXACT, Trump's Sun/North Node and squaring Iran's Mercury/Mars). New Moons begin cycles. Gemini begins conversations. In a week dominated by Uranian themes, maybe the Gemini New Moon reminds us that we do not need to have everything all mapped out/to have it all together before taking the first step. We simply need enough information to begin. Some of the most important journeys start with a single QUESTION.
The New Moon will have its own post.
BOTTOM LINE - This week's astrology suggests that the future may not arrive in the form we expected. Venus and Jupiter open doors. Mercury and Saturn test foundations. Venus and Chiron expose old wounds. The Gemini New Moon invites fresh thinking.
And throughout it all, Uranus squaring the Nodes asks - What if the disruption is not pulling us off our path? What if it is revealing the path that was waiting for us all along?
xo all
Looks like a big/course-charting week for Trump and Iran. Trump is a human stand-in for Uranus and squaring the Node of Fates means his choices/decisions, also, what happens TO HIM is mega important now. His purpose, as written in his chart, is to disrupt, to shock, to break containers and that will be activated. He also has a New Moon on his Sun/North Node and the Venus/Jupiter on his Venus/Saturn this week, so a big week for him. The unpredictability of Uranus makes what this is impossible to know, but I would expect an intensified manifestation of his most essential pattern - UNPREDICTABILITY.
The week's disruptive energies are all over Iran's natal mutable t-square. A country with a strong mutable signature might often find themselves at the mercy of circumstances larger than they are, caught in currents they can't totally navigate or avoid. Mutable energy is already in motion, already dissolving, already shapeshifting, so it easy to go in too many directions at once, have no stable center, adapt so readily that there's no ground to stand on. When a mutable T-square is activated, the demand is usually to MAKE SOMETHING SOLID/to make a decision, to hold a position long enough for something real to emerge from the stuff that is always in flux. The people (Moon) are caught between Piscean martyrdom/sacrifice/letting go themes and Virgoan institutional/bureaucratic PRESSURE and then disruptive Uranus lands on their Moon fires the entire T-square up and squares the Nodes of Fate - with Trump playing Uranus!
His decisions this week/Iran's decisions/what Israel does are critical/pivotal. Situations can change on a dime ... the New Moon is exact on Israel's natal Uranus, too. It's also interesting that June 12th - the Uranus square to the Nodes is the day the Spielberg/alien disclosure film comes out. Uranus in Gemini definitely has an ET phone home quality in it to me ... please excuse typos and nonsense too tired to reread tonight.
