This transit may bring success and good opportunities, but only if you work for it. Put nothing in you will get nothing in return. A wide range of small projects or one large project could reach completion just in time due to fortunate circumstances. Also, starting projects now will have a favourable start. Energy can be directed most efficiently with the assistance of sound knowledge, advice and judgement that are at your disposal, so take the initiative to use them. Wise investments can be made at the moment without the drive to gamble because the odds appear to be stacked in your favour. Chances can be taken without the risk of doing anything stupid.

There is a balancing act between what you think should be done and what you feel your responsibilities are. You may alternate from actively seeking and completing tasks to finding it difficult to summon the energy to be productive. The main obstacle in the way of reaching what you want to achieve is yourself. So, you will need to be self-disciplined and organised to prevent self-sabotage due to a lack of activity. If there are any failures don’t let it depress or frustrate you. Take is as a lesson and learn from what went wrong. Pick yourself up and try again with a new and improved strategy.

If your patience is tested you could respond in a way that is out of character for you. Unpredictable actions bring unpredictable consequences. Pride can definitely come before a fall during this transit. There is a strong drive to push against the restraints that hold you back, that prevent you taking charge of particular areas of your life. As hard as it may be, it really is better to sit this one out for now. There is a strong urge for change and rebellion. My advice is to let someone else to take the lead for now, to make it easier for you to take the lead later, when you are in a much stronger position.

Talking about what you are going to do is one thing, but also taking it upon yourself to put it into action is what you can take pride in. Being in charge is best if you want to get done what has been discussed; leaving it to others won’t be as effective. Although this would normally be laborious to take this stance, it can be mentally and physically invigorating. There is no discrepancy between what you think you can do compared to your capabilities. Advantageous information that finds its way to you should be used to add strength to your position, if you take part in a debate. Confidence in what you learn from various sources can make the informed opinions you have worth listening to.

Taking an economic approach with finances and investments based on the advice of experts will be a good call on your part. This isn’t necessarily due to pessimism about the future; in fact, it’s about being prepared to reach what you optimistically believe you can achieve. A sensible review of what and how ambitions can be brought into reality is needed to assess which are viable and which are not. Cautious growth is better that sudden growth, which is prone to rise and fall. Lay out the groundwork for success by building up gradually with little risk of receiving a big loss.

Venus at 5 degrees 38 minutes Leo is square Jupiter at 5 degrees 38 minutes Taurus at 3.40 pm GMT 4.40 pm BST 11^th June 2023.

If there is anything that you urgently have to attend to, where the responsibility rests on your shoulders, there could be trouble; because the chances are they won’t be done. Otherwise, you will want to do what you enjoy without caring too much about what you probably should be doing. Moments of generosity can happen, but only if there is a reward in return. Also, promising more than you can deliver is unwise, as you may not have the resources available to fulfil them. Showing off wealth and bragging about valuable possessions, to boost the ego won’t go down well with those are not as fortunate. It will be seen as being in bad taste.

Accepting more work than you are capable of managing, due to overconfidence in how much you can do, isn’t wise and could lead to failure. In this case pride will come before a fall. Although there may be a perception of having more strength and resilience, physically and psychologically it won’t last as long as you think it will. Gaining more territory whether it’s literally or metaphorically, is challenging but not impossible. You may have a battle on your hands. Being too proud to ask for guidance from those who have gone before you will be foolish and a waste of the assistance that’s available.

Self-control benefits your capability to accurately perceive what happens around you and how to articulate your response. Important and life altering changes for self-improvement should be considered and streamlined. Analyse your weaknesses and transform them into strengths or eliminate them. Unusual or innovative methods as part of psychoanalysis will give a better understanding of how you define yourself. If there are elements of your past that randomly arise to torment you, this transit is helpful for coming to terms with how you were affected, so you can evolve and have power over your future.

Liberation from the control of those who want to dominate by restricting freedom, will have to be fought for with courage and no intention to surrender. People who want to force their rule on others will face opposition from individuals who object to authority of plutocrats. Loyalties are tested and it will become very clear who is going to stand by you and who isn’t. Compromise is not on the agenda and there are big changes ahead whether you like it or not. Taking the lead and directing a course of action where you want it to go has its challenges; slowing down or stopping risks defeat.

Rebelling against the beliefs of the majority that has been integrated into society will be hard going; even if they are logically proven to be wrong. This is because certain beliefs have been maintained for so long, there will be immense resistance if they’re challenged. Taking control of your finances, especially investments, loans and debts is not necessarily the nicest of experiences. Not doing so could be severely financially destructive; it can’t be ignored. Harsh truths about how much is spent and how big debts have become may be overwhelming; doing nothing will make matters worse. Also wasting money is extremely inadvisable. You will need as much financial reserves as you can build up, so you have freedom from worrying about not having enough to live on if your income suddenly decreases and costs rise.
