Monday is Regiomontanus' birthday, famous astronomer/astrologer, born in 1436. He developed one of the most used house systems that is very similiar to the currently popular Placidus house system. The Regiomontanus house system is still widely used by mundane astrologers (including myself) for event charts.
This blog is dedicated to his memory and his contribution to astrology.
Monday and Tuesday are likely to act as a tandem see-saw of energy together this week. On Monday, the Sun semi-squares Jupiter, which will likely bring some surprising expansion to your week that is alternately unexpected, exciting, yet frustrating because it will overstimulate you and have you feeling like you need to do something without having all the facts/info straight first. Committing to something today will likely you put in a position of scrambling about how to actually achieve doing it, as it may be impossible to fit into your schedule on such late notice. So it's not the best day to jump to conclusions on any matter of importance - that would be best saved for Tuesday when Mercury trines Saturn and seperates the wheat from the chaffe. This will give you the ability to focus in on the details in a grounded and orderly fashion. Communications , information, decision-making will be more stable and clear. The mind will be on more serious matters, but not in a depressing way, just a more of a "down-to-business" attitude will prevail. An excellent day to take on any type of organizing projects, especially paperwork, intellectual work, etc.
Wednesday may be a day of mystical aspirations as the two planets of spirituality/religion/metaphysics get together in a favorable aspect as Jupiter sextiles Neptune. This can be a subtle shift for sure and only be felt if one truly wishes to seize the moment. Be aware you can be in a very idealistic frame of mind that may not be grounded in current reality: this can have you in an energy zone of innoscense that can be taken advantage of. Yet, you have a big heart and it's a good time to work for some charitible cause you identify with. This energy is backed up by Chiron going retrograde on the same day. This will give you time to reflect on how to build a bridge between these higher ideals for all and how to get your own personal healing out of it too. Answers may be clearer near the end of the year, if you use this time to contemplate how now.
Venus enters Gemini on Thurday showing that the sociable summertime/vacation time of the year is beginning and you may meet many new people over the next several weeks. Most of these relationships may be superficial in nature or for informational purposes only, yet it's a great time to network widely and perhaps your net will catch some long term deeper relationships ultimately. This is a time to enjoy the "little things in life." Mars sesiquadrate to Pluto that same day will delay Venus' fun in Gemini for a day or two however, as this can cast some type of shadow over our actions this day. Some type of deadlocked power struggle may reach the point of ultimate frustration/blockage this day and may have you seething inside and ready for a battle. However, if you choose that course there will be no winners and possibly all losers. This is a day you want to avoid dangerous people, places, and situations, and to be careful of your movements as accidents/breakdowns can easily happen.
Venus' square to Neptune on Friday is very similiar to Jupiter/Neptune above. With this aspect, you may try to combine lower and higher forms of love into romantic or spiritual bliss. It's soulmate type energy, but it can be extremely idealistic, self-deceptive, escapist in nature. Life can be full of beautiful moments on this day, yet if you check in with reality, you may realize you're just sweeping some stuff under the rug to capture that ideal moment. Anyone who has an artistic streak may be positively inspired this day, and the square energy shows there may be enough tension to actually create with that inspiration, but it can also be easily just frittered away.
Sunday our words will absolutely be identifying with the ego/self when Sun and Mercury conjunct each other in Gemini. People may have very loose tongues on this day and be somewhat boastful, especially around those who are new to their circle as Venus sextiles Uranus. This gives us a desire and an opportunity to break free from our normal social circles and meet some new people/start new relationships. However, the energy of these two together usually make these relationships short lived. This is also a great day to go out and do something different than the norm for pleasure purposes only. Saturn also goes direct on Sunday - a subtle shift for sure that has us now reach out more physically/concretely in order to form solid relationships with others where all do their fair share and act with equality and justice in our endeavors together.
