expense claims, across all parties.\u00a0 Not that we are not used to scandal (one politician at a time, please), but it is the shock of finding how low politics (Pluto in Capricorn) and politicians (Saturn reaching its furthest point of retrograde) can sink.\u00a0 Neptune and Chiron are square to the Sun today, so we are looking the scandal in the face and we are in a deep-seated crisis.\u00a0 We are at a point of waiting with bated breath (the point where Saturn is stationary today) to see what the response of the people will be on 4 June.\u00a0 What will the government do?\u00a0 Do we have a collective philosophy, or will society be divided (across the Saturn-Uranus split)?\u00a0 Interesting that the issue is about politicians being public servants (Saturn in Virgo)&#8230;There may be an area of your life now, in which you are waiting with bated breath this week.\u00a0 The triple conjunction of Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron which takes place this week is to a great extent about revelation, and the Neptune element elicits the truth behind the illusion, sleaze or scandal.\u00a0 Truth is always better out than in, and we have nothing to fear from truth because it moves us on our path.\u00a0 Astrologers too will be waiting with bated breath, interested to find out the truth behind the triple conjunction.\u00a0 Will the anticipation of Sagittarian-style Astrologers be justified?\u00a0 Or will the caution advised by more balanced Astrologers be wisely heeded?\u00a0 I am hoping that the connection with Jupiter will bring out the best from Neptune (the truth behind the illusion) and Chiron (the healing which is allowed to take place when the wound is exposed).\u00a0 The Sun is conjunct Mercury tomorrow (Monday 18th) and Saturn is beginning its reorientation to direct motion, so public scrutiny takes place, and the road to serious change, maybe towards the straight and narrow.\u00a0 In your own life there may be examination and scrutiny going on in order to soberly reflect on the next step you need to take.\u00a0 Will Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber be satisfied with Jade Ewen&#8217;s brave efforts at the Eurovision Song Contest?\u00a0 She sang &#8220;It&#8217;s My Time&#8221;, as the North Node was transiting her Sun, very fitting.\u00a0 The trio for Europe, which included the newly-installed Graham Norton, made a good team.\u00a0 He and Andrew both have Sun in Aries, and have their Moons conjunct at the end of Leo, currently opposed by the triple conjunction of Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron.\u00a0 And they did well on it.\u00a0 Take heart anyone who has a difficult aspect in their chart from this triple conjunction.\u00a0 You may not win this week, but you could do well.\u00a0 On Wednesday (20th) there will be more scrutiny (sigh, you can&#8217;t avoid it this week) with Sir Alan Sugar (another Sun in Aries) in the boardroom.\u00a0 For Mercury squares Neptune and Chiron, and it is a matter of getting down to the finer detail, or trying to avoid it, for the hapless budding apprentices.\u00a0 The Sun also enters Gemini that day, so again scrutiny and finer detail apply.\u00a0 The politicians&#8217; expense claims may go under an even finer microscope.\u00a0 At least the public will be a little more informed for the U.K. local elections.\u00a0\u00a0 Meanwhile, more wool will be bought to pull over the eyes, and more veils being drawn, but the general trend is for truth to come out.\u00a0 On Thursday (21st) Mercury squares Jupiter and sextiles Uranus.\u00a0 You may be travelling far from home that day.\u00a0 The journey may broaden your mind and allow new possibilities to filter in, such as why not vote for the Green party?\u00a0 You may settle on the unusual solution today.\u00a0 It is certainly a day to investigate new avenues and pathways.\u00a0 The piece de resistance of the week of the week, or year, comes on Saturday (23rd) when the first union of Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron takes place.\u00a0 This unique trinity of lights, if you have not prepared a special project, could be encapsulated in some creativity on the day.\u00a0 Carl Jung said: &#8220;Whatever is born or done this moment of time has the qualities of this moment in time&#8221;.\u00a0 What are you going to do with it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The story which has dominated the last week in the U.K. has been the publication of politicians&#8217;
