Fresh off yesterday’s Leo New Moon, we’re in a fertile period that wants us to revitalize and renew. Where do we want to bring this new energy into? Ruled by the Sun, Leo is the light that inspires us to shine and to bring new life into our lives.
But it’s Mercury that’s making waves today as well as into the weekend. Also in Leo, Mercury squares the Lunar Nodes in Taurus-Scorpio, an energy that can spotlight pivotal decisions and choices that act like a fork in the road. We may be more aware of money and investment as a result.
Then this weekend, Mercury faces off with Saturn in Aquarius, an aspect that can feel like a demand or a boundary. For some, Saturn marks a major commitment and endorsement. For others, Saturn may feel like a hard “no”, a reminder where something is not in order or in balance.
Also this weekend, the Taurus North Node meets up with Uranus to make for a powerful, dynamic conjunction (one that we last had in 2007 in Pisces). Uranus is the planet of awakenings, new consciousness, and breakthroughs. But Uranus can turn everything upside down in a push to create evolutionary change by any means possible. Pay attention to where you’re being shown something new.
The Sun also trine’s Jupiter, newly retrograde in Aries. Have faith. Be open to new possibilities. Be in the adventure of life.
