This evening brings the arrival of Mars in the sign of Taurus. For those with a strong emphasis of Taurus in their charts, its presence will stimulate their creativity over the next six weeks. If new ideas for creative projects present themselves to you this week, you may be an honorary Taurean or responding to this effect on a universal level. Therefore get cracking while the enthusiasm is still fresh, and know that you have about six weeks before completion. Tomorrow brings a more serious and reflective mood with the return of the opposition between Saturn and Neptune. This could be the time when you will need to resolve once and for all the tug between two areas of your chart and life which have been plaguing you over the last few months, for Saturn will soon be pulling away from this relationship on its journey to the new pastures of Virgo in late Summer. There’s a feeling of this can’t or won’t go on, and you may need to cut your losses on one side if you can’t resolve the polarity on a higher level which benefits all. Thursday (28th) gives us a conjunction between the Sun and Mercury in Cancer. Time to experience mental clarity about emotional minefields, or really see how the land lies after the major aspect on Monday. Visualize where you go from here, and keep a record of this crystal moment. Saturday afternoon (30th) delivers a double punch-line in the form of two oppositions: The Full Moon in Capricorn opposing the Sun in Cancer and Venus opposite Neptune. The first aspect will be about emotional balancing, and if you have been recording the effects of the Moon’s phases in your life, you may have an idea what to expect, or not. The second aspect speaks of emotional confusion, or even deception, and you will need to unearth that record of crystal clarity from earlier in the week to help your perspective on the issues which could be complex. I feel I need to end on my usual note about Rufus Wainwright or aubergines, but I don’t want to overstay my welcome on location at Predator Design HQ. So please excuse this hastily cobbled-together blog and hope it helps you through…
