Venus has recently advanced into Libra and as of Thursday, Mars does the same. Befitting this time of year, both planets make for a more lively social go. The appealing and the trendy now claim even more of our attention—and more from our wallets, too. Venus continues in Libra through November, Mars through the start of January. Together they raise the game on matters to do with cooperation, collaboration, alliances, diplomacy, social causes, and social justice.

Friday can prove to be a full-swing yet smooth go of it. Saturday/Sunday is good for carrying on as usual. Monday’s connect-the-dots stars set a productive launch to the workweek.

Mercury, the messenger planet, transitions from morning visibility to evening sky on Tuesday. It’s an opportune day to uncover, discover, and decipher. Stay on watch for signals, hints, messages, and news and for the pace to pick up. More digging, study, talk, planning, or negotiating will prove fruitful.

On Wednesday morning, Neptune ends its five-month retrograde cycle. It’s a subtle yet significant tide-changer. The building undercurrents and ripening potentials will now move to a next phase. You may feel as if an internal “now” button has just been pushed.

Thanks to a recent switch track, Neptune and Mercury transits now drive the karmic agenda in more deliberate and specific ways. Whether it’s a relive or fruition experience, expect to stay engaged with a specific life circumstance and/or a key someone for the next 18 months.
