Monday, JULY 13

Venus forms a square to Uranus this morning, a quincunx with Pluto and Neptune this afternoon, and heads toward a semi-square with Mercury, complicating our interactions and assessments of value today.

The Venus-Uranus square presents a potential challenge or struggle as our values and tastes clash with our need for change. This transit can temporarily disrupt love, pleasure, and social activities. We can feel torn between wanting closeness and freedom. It may be that impulsive attractions to people or material goods can lead us astray, so it’s best to be cautious and mindful of our decisions.

Instability, restlessness, and rebelliousness are possible themes, especially in our relationships. It may be best to hold off on financial decisions, as there is a tendency to act impulsively rather than thoughtfully.

We may also feel discontent with our current pleasures or pastimes, and a change may be satisfying at this time. It’s wise to tame restlessness or avoid abrupt moves, but consider our needs for growth and a change of pace.

Ideally, discomfort with the status quo can lead to highly creative workarounds and improvements.

Today’s Venus quincunxes can also bring some uncertainty. However, uncertainty is often a precursor to growth. There can be reassessments of close personal relationships, spending, entertainment, or social life. We might want to see things realistically on the one hand and prefer to nurture a fantasy or look the other way on the other. There can be insecurity or doubt about others or our own feelings and perceptions. Indecision is likely.

Fears can disrupt the flow, but they can also help us see what we previously overlooked. Ideally, by working through these uncertainties, we can emerge more self-aware.

As well, we’re heading toward a Mercury-Venus semi-square, exact early tomorrow, and our words may not reflect what’s in our hearts. As we strive to get the words just right, we may fall short in our sensitivity. We may be in two minds about a matter, and decisions can be hard to come by. Nevertheless, we’re making an extra effort to cooperate.
