Today expansive Jupiter trines Pluto, the second of three such harmonious alignments (the first in the series occurred on July 7, 2011 with March 13, 2012 being the next one). And with this there’s encouragement to be committed to unleashing our inner strength and personal power. Opportunities may readily manifest that make it easier to close one chapter and open another. It’s as if we have a greater sense of knowing–and a greater sense of faith–that everything will work itself out. That the Moon moves into philosophical and upbeat Sagittarius helps us more readily to connect to this vessel of faith and mission and engenders our ability to view things from a wider angle as we seek a bigger picture understanding.
The Sun connects in with this alignment. It opposes Jupiter reminding us that keeping open to a sense of expanded possibilities is important. While optimism and potential can be a good companion, just watch not to be caught up in the swell of overshooting goals and overpromising. If we can keep our eye on the horizon, envisioning what we want to create in our life, with the Sun also sextiling Pluto we can connect to deep resources of generative power that resides within.
With Mercury and Mars in a tense square, it may take some work to get our words and willpower on the same page. It’s important to focus on marshalling our communications as an ally for our achievements rather than having dialogues detour us from our goals.
