I very much appreciate receiving your comments... thankyou. In order to answer your personal questions it is necessary for me to do an indepth look at your individual chart. So, if you have any questions you would like answered about your own chart, I welcome you to book an appointment for a personal consultation.

Mercury moves into its own sign, Virgo, this week following Venus which moved from Leo into Virgo on the 5th. The Sun, of course, will remain in its own sign, Leo, for two more weeks. With four planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Saturn now in Virgo, many people will be turning their attention to getting organized and getting back to work, even if the Leo Sun is still in play and party mode. The 'back-to-school' advertising may begin a little sooner than usual. Venus will conjoin Saturn in Virgo this week and Mercury will meet up with Saturn shortly thereafter, so there seems to be a very cautious and conservative mood this week and next. Mars will square Pluto this week and part of next, which can indicate intense conflict and power struggles.

Your planetary ruler, Mars, in Virgo, is approaching its square with Pluto in Sagittarius this week, which suggests that you need to let go of any anger and resentment that you may be harbouring. If you are carrying any such feelings, whether consciously or otherwise, they could affect your physical health and well-being right now if you are unable to release them. Headaches, fevers, infections or accidents are the most likely manifestation. You could also find that anger or even rage is being triggered by a co-worker or your work situation. It seems that your health and your work are areas that require some serious focus and attention now.

As your planetary ruler, Venus, meets up with Saturn in Virgo this week it is important that you schedule in some time for play, fun or some sort of creative or recreational activities. You could encounter some power struggles or control issues in dealing with children or a lover this week and next. There may be some repressed anger that needs to be acknowledged and released and you might find sports or other vigorous exercise a good outlet for some of that energy. It could be that you haven't been allowing yourself to have enough fun because of other duties and obligations. You will actually be more efficient and effective if you express yourself creatively now.

This week, your planetary ruler, Mercury, moves into its other sign, Virgo, so you may find that you are able to be more organized and efficient than usual, particularly as Mercury approaches its conjunction with Saturn. Your major focus right now will be 'getting your house in order', literally or figuratively. You could be dealing with some serious family concerns, possibly with an elderly parent. As Mars in Virgo squares Pluto in your opposite sign, Sagittarius this week and next, you might encounter some power struggles with family members or a partner. Any unacknowledged, unexpressed anger you may have is likely to come to the surface now.

Your mind seems to be extremely active right now and you are probably busy with a million things to do and so many details to keep track of. It is probably very helpful for you to make 'to do' lists right now so that you can keep yourself organized and on track. If you try to do too much, you are likely to become frustrated. With Mars approaching its square with Pluto now, you are likely to be quite defensive and argumentative, which could easily escalate into power struggles with others over differing opinions, ideas and perceptions. Any unacknowledged anger is likely to come to the surface now and if you try to repress it, then it is likely to affect your work or health.

Though your planetary ruler, the Sun, is in your sign still, it is approaching an opposition with Neptune in your opposite sign, Aquarius, so you may not feel as energized as usual, your energy may feel somewhat dissipated. You seem to be focusing very intensely on your finances and material security right now and you will need to pay attention to all the details and make sure that your accounts are all carefully balanced. As Mars approaches its square with Pluto this week and next you could even become involved in a power struggle regarding money or possessions, possibly concerning a creative project or children.

There are now four planets in your sign, including your planetary ruler, Mercury, so this seems to be a busy time for you. Now is a time for careful planning and making decisions about what you want to achieve, how you want to structure your life... what you want to be when you grow up, because it is now time to grow up. Both Venus and Mercury will meet with Saturn in your sign this week and Saturn signifies responsibility and maturity. You may also need to set some healthy boundaries for yourself. As Mars in your sign squares Pluto in Sagittarius, power struggles are likely and any anger you are trying to repress could manifest as rage if you don't find a way to let it go in a healthy way.

So many planets in Virgo, the sign preceding yours, including your planetary ruler, Venus, indicates that there is a great deal of activity at the subconscious level of your mind. As Venus conjuncts Saturn this week, you could feel alone and isolated, even if you are in a relationship. It is also possible that you are needing to spend some time alone in order to connect with your inner self because you have a tendency to place too much emphasis on others sometimes. Mars' square with Pluto suggests that you may have some hidden anger, even rage, that is likely to surface now. The more mindful you are, the more able you will be to recognize this and let it go, rather than getting into intense arguments or power struggles.

With the two co-rulers of your sign, Mars and Pluto, squaring each other, conflicts with friends or groups are likely, especially if there is an issue concerning money, possessions or differing values. There is a great deal of passion in this planetary pairing, so the conflict could get very intense resulting in a power struggle. Venus' conjunction with Saturn might help to keep things under control, but could also lead to feelings of alienation. With four planets in Virgo right now, people are tending to be more critical and picky. The best strategy is to practice mindfulness, be as present as possible and focus on practical steps to resolve any conflicts.

Pluto is in your sign now as Mars squares it from Virgo, which can make for a very intense time this week and next. Power struggles are likely if you challenge the boss, a parent or others in positions of authority. With Pluto in your sign, your reactions can be very extreme these days and it might not take much to set you off. With Venus conjunct Saturn this week, there is a lesson in patience which will be harder to learn because of the impatient energy of Mars. If you are able to control yourself and bide your time, getting everything in order while you wait for the right moment, then there could be some positive developments in your career now.

Venus and Mercury are both approaching conjunctions with your planetary ruler, Saturn, in your fellow Earth sign, Virgo, so this is a good time to contemplate your future, make plans, enhance your education or travel. Jupiter is still in your sign, urging you to open yourself to new possibilities and opportunities which you might otherwise miss because of your conservative and cautious nature. The Mars square with Pluto this week and next suggests that you may have a tendency to be defensive and ready to fight for your beliefs when it would probably benefit you to let go of some of those beliefs instead.

Neptune is in your sign now as the Sun in your opposite sign, Leo, opposes it, so you may be feeling confused or disillusioned when it comes to relationships. Neptune's transit through your sign over the past ten years has been urging you to become more spiritually aware, to see the interconnectedness, the oneness of all things. There seems to be a major shift or transition happening in your life right now, so you need to let go of old behaviour patterns and mental attitudes that no longer serve you. You could experience an intense and passionate conflict with a friend or group as Mars squares Pluto this week and next.

There are four planets in your opposite sign, Virgo, now, so your relationships are a big focus for you, especially partnerships. If you do not have a partner, then you may be feeling acutely alone and isolated this week. If you do have a partner then things may be getting more serious or you may need to set some healthy boundaries regarding each person's responsibilities in the relationship in order for things to work better. Any unacknowledged anger or resentment is likely to manifest in intense conflict or power struggles as Mars squares Pluto this week and next. It could be that some of this conflict has to do with your career.
