\"225+web-new-saturn\"<\/a>In recent weeks and months we’ve experienced Mars moving through the Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto configuration. This has been challenging, as Mars has called forth many things that you may not have noticed before but suddenly have had to act on. This has been a kind of initiation for everyone’s inner Mars: a re-thinking of desire and an emerging new concept of maleness. This week, Venus is doing something similar. Sunday, as described last week<\/a>, Venus in Aries made an opposition to Mars in Libra. Over the next few days, Venus moves into a square with Pluto, followed by a conjunction to Uranus and a square to Jupiter. Venus square Pluto is deep and introspective, but this is timed almost to the hour with the Scorpio Full Moon (exact May 14 at 3:16 pm EDT). Venus square Pluto is an inward kind of draw; Scorpio Moon opposite Sun is craving expression. The two seemingly opposing forces are actually working together, and represent the drive to connect and a rapidly building impulse to speak from your deepest feelings. I think that everyone intuitively knows that revealing your heart and soul has the power to change nearly any personal situation. Silence is the great preserver of the status quo, of isolation and of misery. Therefore, the act of speaking is really a challenge to alienation<\/em>. That seems like common sense, but it’s often overlooked amidst all the other avoidance patterns that make up so much of social interaction. However, this week presents special opportunities, ones that may seem to seize you and sweep you into their psychic and emotional current. Note also that Mercury will be square Chiron, a reminder not to worry about your thoughts being too half-formed or imperfect to be worth speaking. More on that tomorrow.
