Moon in Scorpio was sextile Pluto midnight or so last night, how were your dreams? Moon will be trine Vesta exact at 7:01 am PDT and trine Sun exact at 4:48 pm PDT. Might be a harmonious time except that as Vennus is slowly separating from Mars, they are both in the orb of square the long lasting Chiron/Neptune/Jupiter trio. Likely to be "old stuff", emotions that are clearly felt, but not clearly understood at first, nor the origins of such understood at first. Not just boy/girl stuff (and permutations) but relational, as we learn through mirroring, we also are wounded through broken attachments. This is a good time to explore, as Mercury is trine the same trio easing articulation and communication; yet with Mercury also square the Uranus/Juno pair there is some "kick" or juice to move and explore. Uranus joins Jupiter, Neptune, Chiron, and Pluto in going retrograde from our perspective. A change of the change may be more of the same: change.
