Today’s eclipsing Full Moon could make this one of those days where you are juggling multiple balls and life could get a little crazy, making it important not to sweat the small stuff. This might make it harder to put as much focus on your relationships as Venus, the planet of love in her final days in your relationship sector would like you to, though with another five days to make up for lost time.

As much as today’s eclipsing Full Moon is putting pressure directly on the Sun in your romantic sector, with all planetary activity on the romantic front for the year ending next week, the timing couldn’t be better. In the heart of the working week life is likely to be throwing up roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined. At a time when making time for matters of the heart needs to be a priority, this is exposing where the challenges are and how to navigate around them.

With Venus, the planet of love five days away from leaving your romantic sector but the Sun returning before she leaves to keep the romantic flame burning, today’s eclipsing Full Moon and its work/life balance reminders couldn’t come with better timing. You not only have the most important days and weeks of the year on the romantic front stretching out in front of you but with new developments on the relationship front next month.

The Moon is still separating from its friendly aspect to Mars when it peaks as the first eclipsing Full Moon just before leaving an adventurous part of your chart today. With Venus, the planet of love just five days away from returning to your romantic sector to begin the most romantically charged months of 2024 and with support from Mars and the planets in an adventurous part of your chart from the start, this is the start of a veering away from a life that is all work and no play.

Because Mercury, the planet of communication only ended his extended visit to Leo nine days ago as Venus, the planet of love moves into her final five days in your communication sector she has a strong foundation. While Venus’ focus is more on giving your heart and your relationships a voice, this is on top of what has already been invested into getting the communication lines open.

It is during the Moon’s final hours in your relationship sector and in the heart of the Sun’s last week in Virgo that they will clash to create today’s eclipsing Full Moon. In a week when the Sun is already wrestling with the planets in your relationship sector, this is going flush out the kind of emotional responses that will help to clarify where to draw the line between your own and your relationship needs.

In the heart of Venus, the planet of love’s last week in Libra and in the hours leading up to the Moon’s return to your relationship sector, today’s eclipsing Full Moon is putting how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off to the test. That would been the case anyway, but after some romantically charged days and with some important days coming up on the relationship front, this couldn’t be more important.

Still separating from a friendly aspect to Mars in an adventurous part of your chart yesterday and just as today’s eclipsing Full Moon in your romantic sector peaks, so too does the Moon’s alignment with dreamy Neptune. With Neptune in retrograde motion, ahead of Venus, the planet of love’s return to Scorpio in five days this is bringing together a mix of nostalgia, romance, passion and adventure that is going to linger.

It is just a few hours after today’s eclipsing Full Moon and the pressure this is putting on your work/life balance peaks, that the Moon will return to and end the day in your romantic sector. In the heart of the working week and an already special week for friendship and relationship building, this is a chance to move into not just the day but an important rest of the week on the romantic and relationship fronts with the right work/life balance.

The Moon returns to your communication sector every four weeks and as well as making it easier to give your emotional responses a voice, with both planets here in retrograde motion, the past and unsaid words a voice as well. Today’s eclipsing Full Moon here goes one step further, making it easier to push through communication barriers just as Mars has returned to begin the most important months of the year on the relationship front.

As she moves into her final five days in an adventurous part of your chart Venus, the planet of love still has the support of Jupiter in your romantic sector, but they are both having to navigate the demands and the distractions of the working week. While it is not ideal to leave things to the last minute, the conditions will be ideal for a romantically charged weekend.

As a lunar eclipse, today’s eclipsing Full Moon in Pisces is a more potent form of the Full Moon that will always fall at some point during the Sun’s month long visit to your relationship sector and always at the halfway point in your current solar year. This is putting pressure on a balance between your own and your relationship needs, but support from the communication gods on both sides is making this an opportunity rather than a challenge.
