An action-producing aspect from Venus to Pluto makes us wish we had more control over our relationships with others. Today will be a day during which people may want to make necessary changes so that they’ll have room to spread themselves out. Saturn and Pluto are also making an angle of note that will be in effect for a while. Saturn tries to keep structure and Pluto likes to transform things to work better for us. So we may feel as though we have to let go of something that had been a constant in our lives in order to grow. It will be easier to do today because the Moon in Aquarius makes it easier to free ourselves.
The Word of the Day is REFUGE. We take care to ensure stability in the face of change today.
The Color of the Day is BISQUE. (It’s peach-tinged pink.) Today we make transitions while keeping moods uplifted by wearing something in the color bisque.
An important, albeit background, influence is that Pluto will be going retrograde today until it resumes direct motion in October. When the influences of Pluto are activated, we tear down and then rebuild areas of our existence that have not been working properly. During the retrograde months, we reflect back and scrutinize those alterations and transformations that we’ve been making during the direct period (the last six months) and tweak them to fit most appropriately into our lives. Mars will be at an angle to the Pluto over the next couple of days, urging us focus on looking at the changes that we want to initiate. With the Moon void-of-course for nine hours we may want to divert ourselves off our intended course.
The Word of the Day is DISSECT. As Pluto turns retrograde today, it directs us to uncover every detail of information we need to progress.
The Color of the Day is BLUEWHALE. (It’s very dark, muted blue.) Wearing something in the color of the great blue whale will keep our minds alert and productive.
The Sun and Neptune will be in aspect today. This represents a time during which things happen that enrich our spirits. But, while doing so, we may find that what we’ve wished for turns out to be a fantasy. Our dreams will be activated while the Moon travels through the Neptune-ruled sign Pisces. Intuition will be heightened. We’ll be more apt to forgive and forget, and just move on with creating an ideal, fantasy life. Also, the Sun is in association with a star today. This influence urges us to analyze and perfect life as we know it. Often overlooked with this joining of forces in our quest for flawlessness, is the consequence that our actions will have on our society.
The Word of the Day is CONSENT. Allow our thoughts to flow freely with the confidence that we’re on the right path.
The Color of the Day is YELLOW ONION. (It’s translucent whitish yellow.) To best attract today’s inspiring energy, wear something in the color of the yellow onion.
The Moon is going to reactivate yesterday’s Sun/Neptune angle when it passes by Neptune today. This will bring our dreams for enrichment into prominent focus. In the background, we will have the Sun’s aspect to the star Menkar continuing to push us to expect perfection. Jupiter will be affiliated with the nebula Capulus over the next week. With some leaders of groups or societies, this affect shows a strong disregard for anything or anyone who may be standing in the way of their progress. While Neptune continues its aspect to a star, people may dream up plans that are unlikely to come to fruition. We should not expect results today.
The Word of the Day is OBSERVE. It is good to step back and take account of the changes in the ways people will now begin to respond to stimuli.
The Color of the Day is VIOLET. (It’s light purple.) Bring the educational effects of today’s horoscope into prominence today by wearing something in the color violet.
Today we’re going to have a sixteen-hour void-of-course Moon period. When the Moon enters a sign, which happens every 2 and a half days, it makes angles to the other planets. After the last aspect has taken effect and the Moon can make no more angles in that sign, it is said to be void-of-course. When the Moon entered Aries, the day before yesterday, it made all of its angles early on, so we ended up with a longer void-of-course period. It is best not to try to stick to a schedule rigidly when the Moon is void-of-course because we like to explore things we may have missed. It would be fun to do new, exciting things today!
The Word of the Day is FLOW. Taking the time to allow our minds to wander while collecting our thoughts is the best way to course the day.
The Color of the Day is VANILLA. (It’s off-white.) Wearing the color of vanilla, one of the more popular flavorings, will ensure that we can make the right moves today.
The Sun and Saturn will be making an angle to each other that will guide our day. This creates an opportunity for us to feel good about the responsibilities we’re shouldering. We should be energized and able to tackle business requirements. In the background, several planets have been making aspects to stars over the past several days and will continue today. A new one is Venus’ association with two stars today, Hamal and Schedar. The one to Hamal may cause us to be frustrated with people we love, while Venus to Schedar makes us feel dignified, respected, and beautiful. So, if we can quell our tensions and pamper ourselves a bit, it should be quite a nice day!
The Word of the Day is EMBARK. Today’s influences urge us to work hard on new projects and to take on responsibilities that will ultimately offer fulfillment.
The Color of the Day is BURGUNDY. (It’s rich brown with a tinge of red.) Adding a bit (or lots of) the color burgundy to our outfits today will give us strength and confidence.
A fresh new month is upon us! The Moon and Sun, both in Taurus will conjunct, creating a New Moon, filled with inspirations to color our days! Taurus stabilizes our lives, and our urge to move forward slows, so that we can take time to appreciate our surroundings and the things that we have. Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus are all also traveling through the sign Taurus, so the added force of the New Moon will continue to encourage us to create comfortable structure in our lives and attempt to secure our financial conditions. Over the next month, we’ll be optimistic about being able to clear our paths of obstacles so that it will be easier to get what we want.
The Word of the Day is ROOT. Send calm structure into today’s atmosphere, so that we can energize ourselves with the beauty of life.
The Color of the Day is SPROUTLET. (It’s yellowed, spring green.) Burst forth with the vim of newfound, fresh energy, wearing the color of a sproutlet!
Saturn and Pluto started forming an angle to each other several days ago. Pluto likes to make deep changes while Saturn is concerned with maintaining structure. People have been concerned about the growing cultural divisions. Because Pluto is continuing its aspect with the star Altair of the constellation Aquila, a drive is being created within people to muster the courage to attempt to get rid of anything that they deem unfair or that is not working for them as well as it had in the past. Stripping something to the bare bones and then reinventing it to work better will give us the most satisfaction today and throughout this week. Today’s Moon in Taurus continues to keep us steady.
The Word of the Day is FORTITUDE. We feel the strength to make necessary changes today, as the Sun and Pluto instigate revisions and adaptations to the way we live.
The Color of the Day is RAVEN. (It’s black.) Bring out the best of today’s opportunities for success through change by wearing the color raven.
Mercury travels more quickly through the zodiac than any other of the Sun’s planets. When it makes an angle to another planet the effects usually only last for a day. Today, it is at an angle to Uranus. Mercury is the planet of communication. Uranus is the planet that rules impulsive thoughts and actions. People will crave adventure! Conversations and plans will be sprinkled with unusual ideas that might seem like good ones at the time. Jupiter has moved away from its aspect to the ruthless nebula Capulus and is now in association with the star Algol. This effect will cast its focus on women’s issues. Today’s Moon in Gemini will direct spirited conversations.
The Word of the Day is PRECIPITATE. Impetuous action spurs group activity on the spur-of-the moment today.
The Color of the Day is MIDORI. (It’s vibrant green.) Wear the color Midori today to attract as much excitement as the day has to offer.
Venus is travelling through its own sign Taurus, which makes us attracted to the finer things in life. Today, Venus is at an angle to Neptune, the planet that helps us to see what our ideal existence could be. We’ll want to escape into self-indulgence. The Sun has moved into angle with the asteroid, Chiron today. The Sun represents our inner glowing selves, our focus on the world, while Chiron exposes our weaknesses. This angle will call attention to our flaws, and push us to accept them, or attempt to overcome them. The Moon’s transit of the sign Gemini has activated our imaginations over the past day or so. Today, it will be changing signs and entering the more emotionally-reactive sign Cancer.
The Word of the Day is GLEAM. Create beauty that entertains our lives!
The Color of the Day is CARNATION PINK. (It’s flowery pink!) Put a twinkle in your eye today, enhancing today’s horoscope by wearing carnation pink.
Over the past couple of days, Mars has been approaching an angle to Uranus. This has been causing things to happen that have distracted us from our day’s goals and been leading us down other exciting paths. Whenever the Moon is in Cancer, which it will be today, people are more sensitive and have increased abilities of understanding what the next step should be to promote emotional well-being. Because of today’s planetary configuration, we want to think about how we can benefit everyone for whom we feel responsible. Tying the forces of the day together, Venus will be affiliated with the star Menkar, urging us to concentrate on building relationships that will benefit a large portion of society.
The Word of the Day is HIGHLIGHT. Rapport is built with enthusiasm as our ability to relate to many people increases today.
The Color of the Day is CORNSILK. (It’s very light yellow with a dab of green.) Attract today’s loving guides to relate on a higher level, wearing the color of corn silk.
With Mercury in aspect to Jupiter today, people will be thinking a lot about the things they want to do and the chances or risks they might take. Secrets will be freed from the confines of the imagination stage of creativity. When the Sun conjuncts Uranus today, we’ll experience the drive to break free of restrictions. It happens for only about 24 hours per year, but over the past few days, we have had other similar aspects leading up to this one and find that we just don’t want to fit into anyone else’s ideas of how we should live our lives. Take action today to encourage and direct our own paths, not the ones someone else has chosen for us!
The Word of the Day is POSSESS. With today’s aspects, people want to take charge of their surroundings and be in control of their lives’ paths.
The Color of the Day is BORON. (It’s silvery gray.) Embrace the power of today’s astrological angles by wearing something in the color of boron to bring luck and individual direction.
A couple of really nice planetary positions color our day! In fact, a powerful day is at hand, as the Sun’s conjunction to Uranus continues. As the Sun passes by Uranus people feel the need to do things differently, and in a manner that will set them apart from everyone else. Not only that, but Venus is in a beautiful aspect to Saturn! We’ll feel good about taking care of responsibilities and getting things accomplished. Our feelings intensify for the people we are attracted to and/or love. Since the Moon will be in two signs today (Cancer and Leo – with a short void-of-course period), we can use the energies to prod our projects to flourish!
The Word of the Day is PERMISSION. Free ourselves from confines of mundane work today.
The Color of the Day is BEIGE. (It’s light brown.) Neutralize any erratic feelings by wearing something beige today!
Energy levels stabilize today with the Moon’s entrance into the sign Leo. Half of the day’s influence will come from what astrologers call “fixed” signs today. When this sort of configuration occurs, people become resistant to change and are slow to take initiative. We find that we don’t want to start or finish projects; we just want to stick to the ones in which we are already involved. It will be a good day to immerse ourselves in the development of these undertakings or just to relax! The only caveat is that with a quick Mercury/Neptune angle, people will wonder if what they’re doing is correct, and won’t really know the answer until the final results are in.
The Word of the Day is SUPERLATIVE. We can have an extraordinary day if we take the time do things carefully.
The Color of the Day is EMERALD. (It’s intense green.) We can add stability and proficiency by wearing the color emerald today.
Mercury will enter the sign Taurus today for a stay until June 3. During these couple of weeks, we’ll feel more practical, grounded and comfortable than usual. We’ll be much less impulsive in speech and thoughts than we have been over the past month. Taurus likes nice things, so we’ll find that people are more tactful about the things they say. As soon as Mercury changes signs, it will be in aspect to the star Mirach, which will be making us feel good about the things we do and say today. This will be good because the Sun is in a determined, domineering mode today. People will be in that sort of mood, so we’ll be happy to steer clear of arguments and confrontations.
The Word of the Day is STEADFAST. Keeping our stance solid will make us feel in control today.
The Color of the Day is LILAC. (It’s the light purple that’s as delicate as the flower.) Make thoughtful adjustments today that will contribute to advancement of those we love. Wearing lilac will assist us in listening to their needs and suggestions.
An aspect of empowerment from Mercury to Pluto will sharpen our mental abilities and depths of concentration today. It may also cause something to happen that we’re going to step back and figure out how to manipulate so we can be most successful. Venus is at an angle to the asteroid, Chiron today too, reinforcing our efforts to make everyone safe. This will be enhanced by the Moon’s transit through Virgo, which will make giving service to a project a pleasurable experience. Because Virgo is the sign of accuracy and precision, people will feel free enough to be confident in putting plans into motion today. We feel great relief when we encounter people who are intelligent and skilled.
The Word of the Day is FOCUS. Keeping our minds on the goals of the day will help overcome distractions that might sway us from our paths.
The Color of the Day is TUXEDO BLACK. (It’s glossy, elegant black.) Adding some tuxedo black to our wardrobe today will give us some feelings of power.
The Sun and Jupiter are in conjunction. This is such a wonderful force that we may feel as though we can’t get enough air in our lungs to do the great things we want to today. There will be opportunities to advance ourselves, enhancing our awareness and expanding our surroundings. We’ll have to be careful, however, because the Sun is also in aspect to Mars today, which may heighten peoples’ aggression and tempers. Be wary of situations that can involve release of anger. Instead, we should use the excess energy constructively to get things done. With the Moon still traveling through the sign Virgo, we’ll be a little bit more discerning than usual. We may be very detailed about changes we want to make.
The Word of the Day is STAMINA. With our reactions under control, we take charge of the day keeping our energy consistent.
The Color of the Day is FIRE OPAL. (It’s orangey red.) Wear the color of the gem fire opal today to keep up strength and resilience.
The Sun is continuing its conjunction to Jupiter. When things happen today, they happen in a big way. Jupiter is generally optimistic, so the final outcome of occurrences may be something that happens for the best. This transit protects us from the worst. While that’s happening, Venus will also be conjunct to one of our largest planets, Uranus today. Uranus spins on it side, so like it, we strive to be unique and take different approaches to the ways we do things when it prominently guides our day. When Venus, the planet that causes us to fall in love, comes in contact with Uranus, we become endeared to the unusual.
The Word of the Day is DEVIATE. Take time to explore where life leads us today for the most adventure.
The Color of the Day is COPPER. (It’s metallic.) Attract distinctive scenarios today wearing the color of copper!
Many of us will be sidetracked because the Moon will be void-of-course for much of the day today and tomorrow. Some people view the void-of-course Moon period as a time when they cannot get ahead. This should not be the case. We could use the time to think of new approaches to the way we live. While the Sun is in its last day in Taurus, we look for ways to make ourselves feel as good as we can. We want to buy things and surround ourselves with things that make us happy. Also, the Sun and Neptune are at an angle today that will bring us abilities to see the beauty of things we dream up. We’ll revel in the splendor of our surroundings.
The Word of the Day is JUGGLE. The balancing act will be easier today if we acclimate ourselves to changes.
The Color of the Day is MANGO. (It’s smooth yellowed orange.) Wear a bit of the color of mangoes today to more accepting to new situations.
The Sun enters Gemini today for its yearly month’s stay. This sign inspires ideas, communications, and casts our focus on learning new things. During the time that the Sun is coursing through Gemini, it is always good to catch up with old friends and to enhance our communicative abilities. Gemini enjoys lighthearted fun! The Moon continues its void-of-course condition in the mentally stimulating “air sign,” Libra today. It will be a perfect opportunity to express our thoughts differently. With greater ease than usual, we can break away from a stale pattern of routine under a void-of-course Moon.
The Word of the Day is COMMUNICATE. We’ll want to talk about things today. Thoughts flow freely!
The Color of the Day is SKY BLUE. (It’s the color of the sky on a cloudless day.) To thoroughly enjoy conversation and intelligence wear sky blue today.
A beautiful aspect that prevails over the day is Sun trine Pluto, giving people a sense of control and power. If we do a little bit of analysis and investigation, we can figure out the reasons that things are the way they are, and proceed, armed with that knowledge. It would be a good day to make repairs to any damaged relationships, and to take back control of our destinies by showing our inner selves, if we do not stomp out the relationship in the process. If we’ve been walking on thin ice, we should try treading softly. The Moon in Scorpio will help us with this because we’ll want to uncover secret ways.
The Word of the Day is MANAGE. Taking charge of the situations that arise in our lives will be a goal of the day.
The Color of the Day is DANDELION. (It’s rich yellow.) The potency of today’s horoscope will encourage personal power if we wear something in the color of the dandelion.
Over the next few days, both Venus and Jupiter will be changing signs, creating a shift in the atmosphere – not to mention the effects of tomorrow’s Full Moon! Venus and Jupiter are conjunct each other in the last degree of Taurus today. (This conjunction will be visible right before sunrise in the eastern sky.) Venus, the planet of love and relationships, conjuncts Jupiter, the planet of optimism and good fortune! It will be a wonderful day to socialize, if that’s what we want to do. On the other hand, Venus relates to everything, not just people. So, if there’s something else that we really enjoy, like nature, or food, or good literature, we can find ourselves immersed in the pleasure of that, too!
The Word of the Day is DECOROUS. Beautify the day by taking advantage of Venus’s influence.
The Color of the Day is PUCE. (It’s rich, dark pink.) Stabilize the mood of the day, while strengthening resolve by wearing something in the color puce today.
We have a Full Moon today with the Moon in Sagittarius in opposition to the Sun in Gemini! Full Moons usually make people want to finish up projects that they have been working on during the past Moon cycle. If we’ve worked well on achieving our goals to our satisfaction, it will be a wonderful time to celebrate! After the bustle of the next couple of days is past, the Fire and Air elements of this Full Moon will, over the next couple of weeks, cause us to aspire to greater goals. Adding to the excitement, Venus will be changing signs today. With this, we find glimmers of hope for paths we can successfully follow. Adventure and destiny will rule the coming week!
The Word of the Day is CONDENSE. Concentrated thoughts and communications color our day, making our activities precise and our ideas determined.
The Color of the Day is FLINT. (It’s stone gray.) Conversations thrive with significance today. Wear the color of flint to encourage hope.
Yesterday, Venus entered Gemini for a stay until June 16. The next few weeks will be a wonderful time to explore new relationships – not just with people, but with things that might make us happy. We will find that people are more charming and communicative when Venus is in Gemini. We should all take time out to enjoy ourselves and have some fun! Venus is also in a powerful aspect to Pluto today. This gives us an ability to zero in and enhance relationships through controlled action. This angle can also make us feel as though what we do throughout the day we do well. At the end of the day we can feel satisfied with our efforts.
The Word of the Day is OPEN. We should release our concerns and be receptive to enjoy the wonders of the world!
The Color of the Day is ASPARAGUS. (It’s medium green with a dash of gray.) Today’s dynamic can be more controlled if we wear the color of asparagus.
Judgment and sense of logic are clouded while Mercury and Neptune make an angle to each other today. Even though we are listening, we have to make sure that we understand what is being said. Meanwhile, our gigantic planet Jupiter is entering the sign Gemini for a year’s stay. It’s going to be an invigorating time to expand upon ideas and to share them. The last time Jupiter was in Gemini was at the end of the year 2012 and first half of 2013. Think back to the ways we expressed ourselves at that time because it will be similar for the coming year. We will enjoy satisfaction at the end of a short story as opposed to dragging out a long saga.
The Word of the Day is PRIMARY. Giving attention to the things that we want the most today will make us feel accomplished.
The Color of the Day is YALE BLUE. (It’s a bit darker than royal blue.) We feel most skilled and proficient today if we’re wearing something in the color Yale Blue.
Four of the five outer planets are making aspects to stars that will be background guides over the next week or so. Probably the one we’re going to notice most is Jupiter’s association with Alcyone, the star that indicates physical and mental blindness. People won’t see the obvious when a culture promotes something so heavily and frequently that it seems true. With the other three star aspects, people may act in a callous manner to make changes that promote their own dreams. Fortunately, for today, while the Moon travels through the responsible sign Capricorn, we’ll move at a steadier pace, keeping our feet on the ground and holding ourselves accountable, which may counteract insensitive outbursts of emotion.
The Word of the Day is AIM. Steady ourselves to take the best shot at success today!
The Color of the Day is LEAD. (It’s hard gray.) Show our strength and stamina today by wearing something in the color of lead.
This is going to be an fun day, because at some point, when we least expect it, we’ll figure something out, or we’ll become aware of a missing component that will enable us to put pieces together of something that’s been on our minds. Considering that this is an angle between Mercury and Saturn, it will probably be about work or something else we’re responsible for. On and off throughout last year, and now reactivating again, a Jupiter/Saturn angle will be giving us major opportunities for growth. This aspect has been difficult to get through, but there are things we now know about ourselves that we didn’t know a year ago.
The Word of the Day is EXHILARATE. Our desire to forge ahead strengthens our resolve and gives us a surge of fulfillment.
The Color of the Day is CHESTNUT. (It’s a muted red.) We’ll want a good amount of energy today, but we’ll also want to keep our feet on the ground. Wearing the color chestnut will stabilize and strengthen our day.
Over the next couple of days, Mars will be conjunct the asteroid, Chiron (thought by many astrologers to be the ruler of the sign Virgo). Mars conjunct Chiron gives us the energy and desire to promote healing of any wounds we may be experiencing. Today, the Sun will be at minor angle to this conjunction. From time to time throughout the day we’ll feel as though we strive to overcome what we once thought of as weaknesses. This is going to work well with the Moon’s transit through Aquarius because that sign doesn’t like us to be tied down in any way. It might be a good day to make charitable donations.
The Word of the Day is CLOSE. Bring touchy subjects near, address them and then move on to get the most out of the day today.
The Color of the Day is DAWN. (It’s gold.) Today is a day of healing and recovery. Wearing the color of the dawn will increase our chances of revitalizing and refreshing.
The Mars/Chiron conjunction discussed yesterday will be in effect for the next few days. Today, Venus will be at an angle to it that may create a thought or an action that will cause us to make a precipitous response that might help to clear up a sore in a relationship. We may become drawn to things that two days ago and two days from now we would not understand the attraction. So, it’s best not to go shopping unless we want to try some new foods or a short-lived trendy style. This will be especially true with the Moon void-of-course for 10 hours today, creating a time of more dreaming than doing.
The Word of the Day is CONTINUE. On a day when things may seem a bit haphazard, we take steps to find our way.
The Color of the Day is ZINC GREEN. (It’s a bit darker than medium green.) Grab a bit of extra energy today by wearing the color zinc green!
Mercury and Uranus are conjunct in our sky today, which happens only a couple of times a year. Mercury gives us ideas and Uranus gives us the urge to be innovative. So, even if we are stuck in a stale situation, we should be on the lookout today (and tomorrow) for ways to spark excitement into our lives. This conjunction is at an angle to the Mars/Chiron conjunction, which will crowd our minds with thoughts to get things moving, even though our actions will feel a bit restrained. It also makes people forget how hurtful words can be sometimes, and how healing they can be at others. It will be a great day to pay attention to inklings!
The Word of the Day is HUNCH. To act upon ideas that slide into the backs of our minds may be quite beneficial today.
The Color of the Day is NEON BLUE. (It’s a brilliant and piercing blue.) Wearing a dab (or a lot) of the color neon blue today will add to the electrical pulse.
Over the last few days and throughout next week an angle between Jupiter and Pluto casts our focus on the development of our inner power so we can make whatever changes we need so that we can progress to our optimal extent. But, one other thing to consider and be aware of about today is that the Mercury/Uranus will be joining forces with the nebula Capulus, which may create moments where people think very strongly and without feeling, considering only their own desires. Fortunately, this will be tamped down a bit by the Sun’s developing conjunction with Venus, which will give us the integrity to carry out our ambitions honorably.
The Word of the Day is PLUNGE. Careful consideration can make our actions responsible and influential today.
The Color of the Day is PAPYRUS. (It’s light yellowish green.) Wearing something in the color of the papyrus plant will make us feel useful and respected today.
