As your intuition is working on the Pisces puzzle described in yesterday\u2019s blog post<\/a>, consider one possible theme it might be working on: that relationship proceeds most effectively from a sense of completeness within oneself first, and then can be extended to relationship to another. It\u2019s not the most common order of operations in Western culture, but today\u2019s astrology suggests it might be about to catch on.<\/p>\n

Juno, the asteroid representing marriage, relationship, jealousy and social justice, conjoins Uranus in Aries today (exact at 10:51 am EDT). <\/p>\n

Uranus is a major, slow-moving planet associated with surprises, innovation and revolution; it has been called \u2018the awakener\u2019 by some, and is one half of this era\u2019s defining aspect (the Uranus-Pluto square, whose process of disruption and evolution we have been witnessing and engaging with for a few years now, and will be for several more). <\/p>\n

Aries, for its part, is the sign of the self, often given the key phrase, \u2018I am\u2019.<\/p>\n

So here we have an image of the idea that \u201cI am only me if I am in a relationship\u201d coming up against a catalyst for reinvention and liberation from that old pattern. <\/p>\n

Or as Eric put it, \u201cJuno-Uranus looks like a shakeup of the concept of marriage with a return to self-awareness.\u201d<\/p>\n

By \u201cshakeup,\u201d he means not that marriage shouldn\u2019t exist, but that it could function better for more people if it\u2019s a natural, organic outcome with its roots in self-awareness, rather than an artificial goal without basis in a process of establishing a clear inner relationship. Relating in an intimate way takes on a vastly different feel and dynamic the more complete you feel in yourself. <\/p>\n

Getting the hang of that is not often easy — especially in the face of the very robust wedding industry. And it is an industry<\/em>, make no mistake about it, complete with an onslaught of expensive, flashy advertising messages reinforcing the idea that not only do you deserve<\/em> to drive yourself, your parents and your fianc\u00e9 into debt just to have the \u2018perfect\u2019 most important day of your life, but that if you\u2019re \u2018normal\u2019, you must want this.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The wedding industry plays on the envy of material trappings as symbols of \u2018love\u2019, \u2018commitment\u2019, \u2018security\u2019 and feeling \u2018completed\u2019 and \u2018happy\u2019. But just imagine if all of those things could be experienced through a clearer awareness of yourself — an awareness that since you\u2019re already whole, sharing that wholeness with another is gravy. Could jealousy even get much of a toehold then?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that Juno-Uranus is aligned with two legs of the April 23 cardinal grand cross: Pluto in Capricorn and Jupiter in Cancer are both squaring Juno-Urnaus. Pluto may be shaking up your relationship foundations in ways that feel less self-directed than Juno-Uranus, but that\u2019s just part of the process of making space within your relationship self-concept. Jupiter is asking what it really means to be \u2018at home\u2019 within yourself, and home within a relationship — and it serves as a reminder that there\u2019s plenty of room within for all of you.<\/p>\n
