Star Struck Style

It should be an interesting week with a few astrological events setting a rather uncomfortable tone.

First, Jupiter makes its second of three squares with Neptune in a few hours from now. Both planets are in the signs over which they rule, and Neptune is virtually parked in the sky at the moment, making this an especially powerful event. Anyone with planets situated in mutable signs around 18°43″ needs to be wary. Big lies will be sold. What’s worse, though, is that big lies will be bought.

The full moon tomorrow is just going to make things worse. There may be a crisis between those who can’t see the forest for the trees, and those who can’t see the trees for the forest.

The worst aspect of the week, however, will be the short-lived meeting of Mercury and Mars in defensive Cancer in a couple of days. Both planets oppose Pluto shorty after their meeting. Expect people to say what they mean and then literally take their words back in the same breath. A lot of us won’t even realize that we’re speaking with forked tongues, and it’s not going to be pretty.

Be careful! There are snakes in the grass and many of them are venomous. You just don’t know what kind you’re going to come across this week, so keep off the grass and avoid their poison altogether. You won’t need an antidote if you don’t get bitten.
