Are you ready to see more action or opportunity? Here it comes. The next 10 days are fully loaded.

The federal government will present its budget on Thursday with Venus, the money planet, finishing off in Pisces. By evening, Venus will trek into Aries, the pioneering sign. Were they to wait until Friday, we might see a budget that was strong on stimulus. Whether it does best for Canadians remains to be seen, but astrologers know that Uranus/Pluto will continue to produce challenging economic conditions through 2016.

Uranus always strikes where and when you least expect it to. On a buildup through Friday morning, Mars/Uranus keeps the excitement and the edginess going strong. Facilitated by the transiting Leo moon, Thursday through Saturday is opportune for social events, meetups, new starts, innovation, and running with the cause. Still, it must be said that Mars/Uranus is also a volatile, disruptive, accident-prone, and attack-producing combination. Please keep safety in mind.

Tuesday starts with Mars/Jupiter setting onto an escalation curve. Mars in tension with Pluto will get what’s on brew out in the open by the end of the day. This is a breakthrough, a release, or an unleashing aspect.

Wednesday’s Libra full moon occurs at 2:27 a.m. Cooperative and creative Libra seeks to form mutually beneficial alliances and partnerships, but when the scales tip to the extreme, issues of inequality, enmeshment, codependency, and competition need to be addressed.
