Jupiter expands or massively spreads information. This could indicate multiple viral news stories breaking out at this time. Multiple new development happening almost all at once.
This could cause problems with traveling, publishing, higher education, foreign affairs, group efforts, and places of entertainment. Difficulties with religious differences may also be prominent at this time.
There may be a conflict of those claiming to know the truth. Mercury and Jupiter shows that any religious, philosophical or other conflicts in what opposing parties believe will not be settled any time soon. Participants in debates are forceful in their ideology.
Facts and figures may also be exaggerated during this time and/or spread widely. This is not a good time to negotiate deals as neither party will want to give in to the other.
Venus trine Saturn is a positive aspect for relationships, career, and finances. The planet Venus is forming a very positive aspect with Saturn and this makes it an excellent time to start a new relationship of any kind. Saturn and Venus work very well together since Venus rules Libra while Saturn is exalted in Libra.
Comforting people and showing that you care are important now. This is a positive time to visit older relatives or people. Nurturing overtures could lead to a successful and stable relationships.
Anything that you want done, now is the time to communicate it in a nice way. Venus is a stickler for good manners, so approaching problems in a diplomatic way will help you tremendously. Working together harmoniously is the idea with Venus and Saturn.
Also, this is an excellent time to apply for jobs so get those resumes sent out now for any employment opportunities that you are interested in. International affairs, starting up something new, entrepreneurship, sports may go well now.
There are many more ways that Saturn and Venus work together. If you have dealings with older people (Saturn) or people who are suffering, then now is a good time to find help for them. You may come up with a new solution to provide support or money (Venus) by reaching out and showing support for international causes.
Whether you are balancing your bills or financing a new business, now it a good time to do it. Venus and Saturn are also excellent for any creative/artistic endeavors or dealings with children.
Neptune gives insight and Mercury understanding, so combined they lift the veil to the other side and allow communication across different dimensions. Borders dissolve under this aspect.
This is not the time for dealing with facts, figures, or detailed work as Neptune confuses things on the material plane. This combination can cause mishaps and misunderstandings when dealing with everyday communications, interactions or financial matters. Missed calls and misplaced messages are common so try to give others the benefit of the doubt in these matters.
If you hear any incredible news or gossip it is best to wait and see if it’s really true before acting upon it. Beware of scandals, lies, deceptions and scam artists as they will be very active this week.
How strongly this will affect you on a personal level depends upon how this square interacts with your natal chart. Mercury square Neptune can give wonderful abilities in music, art, psychology, and mysticism. It also allows a person to use these talents in constructive ways as squares can be very productive (or destructive if you are unaware of it’s influence.)
Emotions flow more readily and feelings can be easily hurt. You may send or receive and email or text and take it the wrong way. It is important to be very clear in all communications, perhaps making a direct phone call instead and double-checking any work emails to avoid getting into trouble.
You may find your most productive work will be done in solitude (as Neptune is associated with the 12th house of isolation). Be aware of any *signs* or unusual events that may be the result of influences from the other side.
Neptune rules the ocean, water and the feet. Water wears down and dissolves matter. This aspect can result in a loss of some kind. Neptune teaches us not to become attached to samsara or material world that we live in. Buddhism teaches us that this world is just an illusion after all. What we think of as solid and permanent, really isn’t.
Neptune also rules viruses, drugs and alcohol. Being careful with any prescriptions and avoiding intoxicants is important now.
Sacrifice is also a Neptune keyword, so volunteer work and helping the less fortunate will also benefit you in a difficult Neptune transit.
While Neptune can cause drug addiction, the positive side of Neptune (spirituality) can help a person overcome these problems.
The Serenity prayer is a perfect example of Mercury and Neptune:
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things I
cannot change;
Courage to change the
things I can and
Wisdom to know the
difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a
time; Accepting hardship
as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this
sinful world as it is, not
as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make
all things right if I
surrender to His will;
That I may be reasonably
happy in this life, and
supremely happy with Him
forever in the next.
Amen
Romance is in the air on as the two planets of pleasure, love and fantasy for an aspect. This is also good time for creating something new, art, or reading a good novel.
You may want to escape reality for a little while and just enjoy some movie or other form of entertainment. Spending time by a lake, river, or ocean may also be soothing and inspirational.
This is not the time for enjoying some aesthetics. Redecorating or creating an atmosphere of comfort will go well now.
This is also a beneficial time for working on anything related to water, chemicals, or spiritual pursuits.
The merging of one’s survival needs with those of a group. Sharing and trusting. Intense interactions with others.
Intensity over finances and with women/children. There may be some covert activities which take over a situation with powerful influence. Women may deal with power issues or money issues which may become prominent in the news. Venus also signifies what we create, which can run from a piece of artwork to children.
Trines are unstoppable flows of energy. Issues surrounding budgets could result in political problems. More people may push their power to avoid paying or to receive more funds now.
Relationships may also be affected by this aspect. Feelings may be more intense with a partner or other loved one which can be for good or ill. The power to completely transform a relationship or finances is available now.
While this aspect of Venus and Pluto can be overwhelming, it can be used positively. By channeling the energy towards working with others to improve your power physically, financially or socially. Embarking upon a new project with gusto could lead to great success.
It may take a change of perspective to realize that a perceived problem could be a source of power. Making that shift may allow you to obtain the best results of this aspect.
