The big news today is Mercury’s entry into its own sign of Gemini, which is good news for Geminis who can express themselves fully and freely and be themselves, and good news for journalists and broadcasters who will have a steady stream of stories lined up and ready to roll.\u00a0 For the rest of us, we may be able to clear our heads, and eperience fewer senior moments for the duration of this transit (which lasts until 3 July).\u00a0 If you are still having senior moments, then try the Japanese tree supplement ginkgo biloba, combined with ginseng for concentration.\u00a0 That, with Mercury in Gemini, should hopefully do the trick.\u00a0 So the next couple of weeks is favourable for any work on the mental plane, such as sketching out a learning plan, writing short articles, and light conversation accompanied by tea and spelt toast.\u00a0 Visiting relatives is also favoured under this transit, so a family get-together or catch-up is likely, particularly between siblings.\u00a0 Tomorrow Jupiter is stationary, prior to going retrograde.\u00a0 Foreign travel may be put on hold, suspense over exam results, u-turns on philosophy (e.g. by governments) – anything of a Jupiterian nature starts to contract after its unprecedented expansion over recent months, Jupiter being part of the triple conjunction of Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron (it was only a matter of time before I would mention the T-word).\u00a0 However, triple conjunction plans and hopes continue to be consolidated.\u00a0 They are just going into a different phase. Boundaries have been set, and plans re-drawn to take account of progress made or financial stringencies.\u00a0 In early July, Jupiter will re-join Neptune and Chiron at 26 degrees Aquarius, and Uranus will still be wielding its influence acting as a counterpoise at 26 degrees Pisces, so we will see an encore of the original triple conjunction at the end of May.\u00a0 With all four planets retrograde by then, it will be different – an inbreath after the outbreath.\u00a0 If you are involved in a large-scale construction, you will be entering into phase two of the long and complicated process.\u00a0 That is looking ahead somewhat, but you may be able to glimpse the next part of the vision and its significance tomorrow when Jupiter turns retrograde.\u00a0\u00a0 Wednesday (17th) is also important for assessing and refining progress, with the Sun trining Neptune\/Chiron and squaring Uranus.\u00a0 Last week was decisive for some, as Uranus semi-sextile Neptune allowed disengagement where necessary.\u00a0 For instance, if you had lent your energies temporarily to the development of large-scale community plans (Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron) you may have sensed that you had come to the end of your soul’s contract with it.\u00a0 Or you may have needed to retreat to work on your own healing.\u00a0 If the plan is your plan, you will want to see it through, but if it is someone else’s plan, then your energies may be needed elsewhere or even in your own back yard.\u00a0 Wednesday may be the time for that disengagement, with the Sun squaring Uranus.\u00a0 However, you may keep a spiritual link with the group or an interest in the progress of the plan (Sun trine Neptune).\u00a0 More of the healing significance of what is taking place may also be revealed at this time (Sun trine Chiron).\u00a0 Complex structures are being built for the future, and groups are coming together now, but an individual may also be needed to attend to more than one group at a time.\u00a0 Some people will be holding the energy of one group, and others moving between groups and projects.\u00a0 There will be more dismantling at a later phase when the Saturn-Uranus opposition becomes exact again, but at this time it is several degrees wide and taking a back seat in the reconstruction process.\u00a0 And so, on to Thursday (18th) when the Sun trines Jupiter and you can let your hair down, enjoy the fruits of your labours why don’t you.\u00a0 Life can’t be all serious working at astrological aspects all the time, honestly.\u00a0 It’s a relatively untrammelled aspect (although still tied to those other planets admittedly) but brings out the playful side of it all, the lighter side of life, the cosmic giggle.\u00a0 Take time out from committee meetings, and plan some leisure activity or relaxation, communal or otherwise (you may need some space).\u00a0 There may be a sense of anticipation in the air on Saturday (20th), the final day of Spring, with some gorgeous aspects to come right at the beginning of Summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
