Star Struck Style

I’ve got a big week ahead of me. Jupiter entered my tenth house yesterday, and the sun, Venus and Mars all make major moves in my chart over the next few days.

Nevertheless, this morning’s full moon opposing the sun in my eighth house has me feeling somewhat introspective and a little scatterbrained, and for that reason I woke up this morning thinking about what I can do to be more satisfied with myself on a personal level. With Jupiter conjunct my midheaven, perhaps I’m ready to redirect my sense of ambition toward personal growth. Pondering that prospect got me thinking about the upcoming Venus/Jupiter conjunction, and soon my mind wandered to Venus’ upcoming retrograde cycle.

I realized that Venus will be spending four months in my first house later this year. It enters that sector of my horoscope in late August and doesn’t leave until late December. With Jupiter in my tenth house at the same time, the latter part of the year should be a wonderful time for me to focus on self-improvement. I’m not sure if that means picking up some self-help books or just working out more, but I’m already looking forward to having the two so-called “benefics” transiting these houses. Venus in the first house can be trouble for someone as decadent as me, but Jupiter in the tenth house should keep me grounded and disciplined.

So, I’m thrilled to discover what the rest of 2026 has in store for me. If I can just get past June’s conjunction of Venus and Jupiter without gaining a hundred pounds and/or spending all my money on fancy clothes, my forecast is quite positive.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some improving to get ready for . . .
