1^st – Sunday –  Venus Conjunct Neptune – It’s time to dream and imagine how we would like our lives to be.  We let our softer side of our personality emerge and our natural love of life and each other can gain expression.

2^nd – Monday – Mercury Semi-sextile Venus, Sun Sextile Uranus, Mercury Semi-sextile Neptune – We try to capture our vision of truth. Success depends on our willingness to abandon preconceptions and experiment. It is easy to get ahead of ourselves and we need to be patient and accept incremental gains.

4^th – Wednesday – Mars Quincunx Jupiter – Realizing our true potential means understanding our real connection with everyone and everything else.  Tender moments and genuine expression of feelings allows a new depth to relationships and to our work.

5^th – Thursday – Mercury Sextile Saturn, Mercury Semi-square Mars, Sun parallel Mercury – Discipline and mental sorting out gives the backdrop to all our tasks.  If we keep our mind focused on our chief responsibilities, then we have a sense of satisfaction with our progress.

6^h – Friday – Sun Opposite Jupiter, Mars Contra-parallel Uranus – Enthusiasm and self assuredness can overwhelm us leading to missteps and accidents. We are experiencing genuine luck but we have a responsibility to know when enough is enough.

7^th – Saturday –Venus Semi-sextile Uranus, Mercury Contra-parallel Jupiter – Unexpected consequences emerge from the things we have put in motion over the last week.  If we concentrate on the most significant people in our lives and see that their needs are fulfilled we find our own lives are enriched.

8^th – Sunday – Venus Sextile Pluto – Despite our best efforts it doesn’t seem possible to go through the day without interruptions and some conflict.  However, it is possible to have some fun.  In the right frame of mind we can enjoy the excitement.
