As Mars settles into his first full week back in your romantic sector, a bit of pushback from the Moon yesterday is likely to have goaded the warrior planet of the cosmos, making him even more determined to fire up your romantic passions and fighting spirit. Mars is a planet that revels in roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined, for it gives him something to fight for.

The South Node is not only in the spotlight today but in one form or another for the rest of the week. Today both Saturn and Venus, the planet of love are crossing the lunar nodes and that is putting pressure on the South Node in your romantic sector. This might challenge old excuses, but with support already building, this could be the push needed to get past old excuses, roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined.

While the Moon has moved on from its clash with Mars in your communication sector yesterday, there is a chance today to enjoy the benefits. As the warrior planet of the cosmos Mars thrives on pushback, with roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined only serving to fire up his motivation and this is helping to get his war on communication barriers up to speed.

With no planetary activity in your relationship sector, the Moon’s departure yesterday was always going to leave you more emotionally engaged and aware. With Mars no longer in Cancer there was no clash and unlike the last three months, this was less likely to push buttons. Instead, the Moon had the support of the Sun in his early days in your friendship sector and the South Node in your communication sector.

It was in the Moon’s early hours that shortly after its return to your relationship sector yesterday that it both aligned with Pluto here and clashed with Mars in his early days back in Leo. The Moon is still here but it has moved on from both, keeping you emotionally engaged and aware and with a better understanding of a balance between your own and your relationship needs.

Today begins what could be some of the most defining days of the year on the relationship front, with long term implications. It is just as Venus and Saturn align in your relationship sector that they both begin their transit across the lunar nodes, once again putting a balance between your own and your relationship needs in the spotlight. By the time the Moon returns tomorrow this will have tightened, bringing you to a major turning point on the relationship front.

At the same time that Mars and Neptune are getting the week off to a positive start when it comes to friendship and relationship building and both taking advantage of having Mercury, planet of communication back in your relationship sector, the Moon is making its monthly visit to your romantic sector. This last visit before Pluto turns retrograde is adding more potency to these romantically charged lunar vibes, while a friendly aspect to Jupiter is bringing the spirit of romance and adventure together.

Even before the Moon returns to your romantic sector tomorrow, something special is developing on the romantic front that is only going to deepen over the coming days. With the Sun in his early days in your relationship sector and some important days coming up when it comes to friendship and relationship building, yesterday’s work/life balance reminders couldn’t have been more timely.

As the Moon makes its monthly visit to your communication sector, its friendly aspect to Jupiter in your relationship sector is a given and an ordinary monthly event, but with the timing making this a lot more significant. While this is making this a good day for communication on the relationship front, this last visit before Pluto turns retrograde here is a chance to take advantage of a chance to get the communication lines open ahead of time.

In her last full week in your communication sector and of a second chance to spend time giving your heart and your relationships a voice, Venus has joined up with the forces that can keep the communication lines open after leaves. An alignment with both the North Node and Saturn is giving you the resolve and confidence to push through communication barriers.

At the same time that Mars, in his first full week back in your relationship sector is separating from a clash with the Moon in Aquarius yesterday, he is also starting to separate from a rare friendly aspect to Neptune in your communication sector. In Mercury, the planet of communication’s first week back in your communication sector, what the Moon was able to flush out can now find a voice.

That Venus and Saturn are aligned as they both begin crossing the lunar nodes has the potential to make this a major turning point. While the planet of love is using this window into the lunar nodes policing a balance between your own and your relationship needs to better understand what you want from your relationships and what they need from you, Saturn is asking that you take this seriously.
