Investigating and forming a multitude of ideas that you can act upon, to end one stage of your life for the next, will go fairly smoothly right now. Alternative options that you didn’t have the courage to initiate will become viable and won’t be as intimidating as they were in the past. Assertiveness in conversations about matters that have been buried is a vital part of gaining power and control over your life. If you have been manipulated or coerced by anyone who dominated you when you couldn’t push back, you will see the truth of how weak they really were.

Mars conjunction Uranus in Taurus 15th July 2024

Mars is conjunction with Uranus at 26 degrees 19 minutes Taurus at 2.05 pm GMT 3.05 pm BST 15th July 2024.

Brace yourself for sudden shocks that affect the stability that maybe has been taken for granted until now. Even if you’re not directly affected, this will certainly grab your attention. Events that catch you off guard could light the fuse for unexpected or rash action to be taken, regardless of the long-term consequences. Carelessness during this transit has a high chance of causing accidents that result in a slow recovery. On the positive side, initiating innovative projects that produce practical solutions and applications will be a productive use of energy. Inventive and constructive activity will be the main focus for many individuals in one form or another.

If there is any task that requires you to pick up from where you left it, to attend to a more pressing responsibility, this transit provides an opportunity to do just that. Carrying out the most gruelling work that had been postponed won’t be a hard as initially anticipated. It will lighten the load, especially if this is a long-term project, so it will be much easier for you as you get closer to the point of completion. Patience and persistence are the keywords here, even if you’re not entirely sure of what you hope to achieve doesn’t mean your time and energy. If nothing else the experience you gain will serve you well in the future.

It’s important to control frustration and fury when under stress. Anger can be an energy, but it will have devastating consequences if unleashed right now. Action taken is steady and slow to stall the speed at which major progression for change is taking place. Going through tough challenges during this transit may be unavoidable, so you will have to grit your teeth and bare it. This is all part of leaving elements of your past behind that have held you back or had a negative psychological effect on you. It won’t be easy but in the end could turn out to be cathartic.

Jupiter at 1 degree 53 minutes Gemini is trine retrograde Pluto at 1 degree 53 minutes Aquarius at 12.52 am BST 3rd June 2024

There is a glimmer of optimism in change for the better concerning those in a position of power. Those who have been tricksters in the past in how they have controlled others could find their time of judgement has arrived. An underlying belief that the truth has yet to be revealed in what has previously been considered to be taboo will be rediscovered; the moment to share them with a wide audience is here. New generations will have a more humane understanding than the older generations who are unwilling to move with the times. People who have wrongly had power take from them can start to make provisions to get their power back.

Your aspirations can start to materialise if you are savvy enough to listen to the wisdom of those who are able to provide sound advice. Even if they can’t be fulfilled right now, developing a wide range of idealistic possibilities is a form of inspiration in its own way. There is at least a glimmer of hope for the future and solid reasons for optimism. Moments of enlightenment may occur where truth and facts that have been skewed by those who have a religious agenda will be seen for what they are. Finding what you truly believe in will provide a sense of stability that until recently has eluded you.

This is the moment to be assertive in seeking out what you want to do about the effect of psychological issues, caused by previous experiences and how they influence your future. Severing ties from your past is a brave and bold thing to do if they have been doing you more harm than good. The retrograde motion of Pluto gives you a step back to take a logical stance ono how this can be done without being needlessly destructive. There is a tremendous source of energy that is bubbling under the surface, to cut out the dead wood to make way for the changes that ned to happen, for your life to progress. It won’t go in the direction you expect but in the direction it’s supposed to be.

Mars conjunction Neptune in Pisces 29th April 2024

Mars is conjunction Neptune in Pisces at 28 degrees 52 minutes Pisces at 4.31 am GMT 5.31 am BST 29th April 2024.

There is a feeling of being tetchy and irritated for no feasible reason whatsoever. Some people will be in a stroppy mood ready to snap at anyone without knowing why. If you encounter someone like this it’s best to give them a wide berth until they have calmed down. For those of us who are not badly affected by this transit, there is an intense urge to be creative and act according to where inspiration takes you. There will be little planning when the initiative is taken, instead there is a preference for improvisation. It’s important not to deceive others during time otherwise you can expect hurtful confrontations.

Jupiter conjunction Uranus in Taurus 21st April 2024

Jupiter and Uranus are in conjunction at 21 degrees 50 minutes Taurus at 2.26 am GMT 3.26 am BST 21st April 2024.

Prepare for chances for freedom to gain what you have been working for, without following anyone else’s footsteps. Your eyes may be opened to an expanding range of possibilities that can be built upon. This is when the achievements of predecessors act as a stepping stone for their successors. There is a push for liberation and independence from undemocratic and inhumane laws. A potent belief in the need to separate from the restraints of what is outdated and no longer of practical use, will be a vital part in constructing the foundations of the future. The old rules created by religious and spiritual organisations will be affected.

Mars at 21 degrees 46 minutes Pisces is sextile Uranus at 21 degrees 46 minutes Taurus at 12.56 am BST 20th April 2024.

If you want to initiate exciting changes to your life, this transit will provide the drive to get started. Acting on impulse and what you feel you should be doing won’t unsettle you at all. Restrictions aren’t tolerated as much as they have been and you won’t want to put up with them anymore. If you can’t break them down you can find a way around them. It’s easier to have the courage to become involved in activities that are completely different from what you would normally do. This is unlikely to be a scary experience, but you may surprise yourself with what your capabilities are.
