In yesterday’s blog we reviewed two of the four broad themes in the current sky. The first being an impending shift in the continuing series of hard aspects between Saturn, Uranus and Pluto on or about the first degrees of Libra, Capricorn and Aries.

The door is closing on the the first phase, dominated by Saturn. In late July, the Ringed One will return to Libra. There it will exact the last of five oppositions to Uranus. About a month later the last of three square aspects to Pluto. Then it will move on to the green pastures of Libra. The door is opening on the second phase. Uranus and Pluto will meet each others match in a long series of cardinal point squares that will exact seven times over several years. We are now in the dark hallway in between.
The second thing we noted yesterday was the overlooked and shouted-down beneficence of Jupiter in Pisces. With Chiron the the first degree and Uranus in the last, Jupiter is at home in-between with something for us all. Something to work on. Something to have faith in. Something we need to keep us going.
Today we move on to the next two features that distinguish the current sky. The first is the Taurus Sun in a long functional square (90 degrees of separation) with Mars in Leo, exacting today. The second is Chiron in the first degree of Pisces aspecting an unusual number of minor planets likewise at the so-called critical degree.
