This weekend we have two notable transits occurring between personal planets and outer planets. Mercury, finishing up its last few days in Taurus, receives a helpful trine from Pluto in Capricorn. Usually, Mercury in Taurus focuses on the practical; its mental faculties prefer extending themselves to their here and now and what is tangibly understood. With an aspect from Pluto, needling planet of the Underworld, the tangible takes us deep within our psyches, but for the sake of exposing our depths to the light. Taking place late Saturday/Sunday night, this transit is an aid for any difficult or emotional conversations you may be having. It can also help with any solo depth and healing work you may be undertaking. Stay grounded in your own experience, as we are dealing with planets in earth signs, and keep the mind on what is rather than on what should be. Taking a page from the third decan of Taurus (where Mercury currently transits), there will always be difficulty and disappointment regardless of how well we’ve prepared. Can we have humility in the face of powerful forces? Can we know the limits of our own power?

Later in the day on Sunday, Venus, the planet of love, and Neptune, the planet of mysticism, form a harmonious sextile, creating connection that transcends boundaries. Now both of these planets are already in quite “strong” positions. Venus in Taurus lends a grounded sensuality that draws beauty and abundance towards it. Neptune in Pisces is that much more porous, sensitive, and compassionate, though also confusing, foggy, and dissociative. While this transit does not support the erection of boundaries (as Mars in Cancer is urging us to do), it does lend a certain enchantment to personal interactions and pleasurable activities. Use this transit to make art, spend a day by the water or in a forest, or bring a bit of magic into your relationship life. Just take your interactions today with a grain of salt; they may not be what they seem.
