The Moon is exalted in Taurus on Tuesday and Wednesday - In the nakshatra of Krittika on Tuesday and Rohini on Wednesday. Rohinin means “growing” - it is the favorite wife of the moon. Both of these days will be quite auspiscuious as the Moon is also aspected by Jupiter. Rohini is a nakshatra of Beauty and creativity. Thus Wednesday would be a good day for PR at work, or for having romantic time with your partner. As I have noted recently, the Saturn / Venus connection is limiting our romatic joy these days, so these next few days will be good days to reach out.

Saturn will enter Leo on July 11, Wednesday. At this time it will join the South node for the next couple of years — mostly. But of immediate importance is its continuing association with Venus. Saturn and Venus formed a perfect conjunction last Sunday morning. On July 27 Venus will turn retrograde and cross Saturn moving backwards on August 13 — then finally surpass Saturn one more time on October 13. This final conjunction with Saturn will also include the South node, Ketu - Venus, Saturn and Ketu will all be at 11° Leo on October 13.

Saturn has a tendency to take the joy out of things — to make us aware of the limited capacity of anything worldly he touches. As it relates to Venus, Saturn has the effect of dampening our enthusiasm for worldly pleasures such as food, sex and social interaction. Psychologically there may be a feeling of unworthiness attached to these inhibitions. For instance, with Saturn/Mercury we may doubt our information, so we don’t communicate as freely — with Saturn/Sun, we may lack confidence, so we don’t act as powerfully — with Saturn/Mars we may lack courage, so we avoid speaking up — with Saturn/Venus we may doubt our attractiveness or sense of worthiness, so we are less likely to feel romantic or ready to receive.

Romantic relationships could be tested between now and October with Venus going back and forth over Saturn this way. Ultimately the inhibitions of Saturn are to shatter our illusions around whatever he is influencing. In so doing we are forced to clarify our commitments and responsibilities. The illusions of Venus are many — ultimate fulfillment through sensual pleasures - the arts / worldly beauty - but mainly other people, and making them happy.

The ensuing Venus retrograde cycle will originate in Leo (the sign of personal power and dignity) and move into Cancer (the sign of selfless nurturing toward others). By the time Venus enters Leo the second time, we will have had the opportunity to reflect upon / internalize our demanding Venus nature (retrograde in Leo) - our selfless Venus nature (retrograde in Cancer) - then express those things and more enlightened manner once Venus goes direct.

It is fascinating to observe this Venus retrograde cycle occurring at the same Zodiacal juncture as the recent Saturn retrograde cycle. God must really want us to understand this transition point between Cancer and Leo. Just when we were all ready for Saturn to finally move into Leo and let us get going, Venus goes retrograde in the same place — interacting with Saturn around similar issues.

Clarifying your commitments / inhibitions / responsibilities relative to your individual needs, demands and desires and the need to nurture and subjugate your personal power to your partner will be the deeper theme of this Venus retrograde cycle. By the end of it, your selfishness, fears, inhibitions, boundary issues will hopefully turn into a commitment to improve in these areas — not only in the sphere of romantic relationships, but in your dealings with all people.

Venus is the planet that gives us manners, courtesy and the capacity to compromise what we want in order to please another. However if we are immature in this area we may compromise today and become embittered and demanding tomorrow. Venus in Leo may take on a demanding persona / Venus in Cancer, quite selfless one.

With Saturn entering Leo this week it will also formally declare a shift in commitments to our personal power, as the last several years Saturn in Cancer awakened a commitment to selflessness and nurturing. Leo is the sign of physical health and vitality — burning off our impurities. Saturn rules the colon - thus a good thing to do would be to do a colon cleanse. Your vitality is probably quite low right now and you may be feeling a bit toxic with Saturn scraping along these last degrees of Cancer, in the Nakshatra of Aslesha - a Serpent Star. Any type of cleanse would be helpful now, but especially for the colon.

Given the relationship between Saturn and Venus, you and your partner can do a colon cleanse together — how romantic!

On July 12th Saturn finally moves into Leo, after being in and out of Cancer for close to three years. However, between now and July 12th we can expect the same sort of start and stop frustration that we have been experiencing for the last several weeks.

The reason we’ve been feeling this way primarily is due to the relationship between Mars and Saturn. Mars is the rash and impulsive force of action. Mars wants it right now - Saturn is the slow-moving, patient one.

Mars entered Aries on June 16. At that time Saturn was at 27° of Cancer, the very end of that sign. As soon as Mars entered Aries several firefighters died when a warehouse collapsed on them as they were performing their firefighting duties and wildfires began raging out of control. Since then, unfortunate terrorist events/explosions and many other Mars type of things have been occurring, showing an upswing when compared to the previous month and a half when Mars was in Pisces. Mars entering Aries brings a spirit of initiation, impulse and force - nature and world events reflect this spirit.

Yet Saturn is the planet of our long-term plans and goals. Saturn has been hovering around the last degrees of Cancer for close to a month now. For the last 2 1/2 years he has been in and out of sign of Cancer (mainly in the sign) - trying to strengthen our emotional core and deepest vulnerabilities. Saturn is the slow-moving one who makes sure we have the opportunity to get the lesson right before he settles into the next sign for three years.

So this leaves us with the relationship between Saturn and Mars. We are ready to act decisively and with inspiration, (Mars in Aries) but feel inhibited and uncertain because we can sense a big change is about to happen, but we’re not sure exactly which course to take. Or, we know exactly what course to take but circumstances need to change before we can act accordingly (Saturn in Cancer).

Additionally, Venus has been within a degree of Saturn for the last several days. This is why you’ve not felt very romantic or sexual, or necessarily joyful, for about a week.

President Bush pardoned Scooter Libby today. This was shown by the Saturn/Venus conjunction in the Presidents first house. The timing of this move is quite interesting. Considering Saturn is about to move into the sign of Leo, and join malefic Ketu there, this event could easily be a catalyst for a pretty nasty backlash against his policies. The president has been losing supporters left and right. His immigration bill got crushed last week - failure after failure.

These events coincide with what I have predicted about the sign, with Saturn and Ketu in Leo for the next 10 months or so. Disgrace and humiliation for the landed power structures will occur. The revelation that King has no clothes. Tony Blair has already met with a disgraceful exit. The knighthood of Salman Rushdie also seems like a foolish event that has galvanized voice of dissent in the UK. I would not be surprised if something drastic happens in Cuba, especially the death of Fidel Castro.

Beyond world politics, Saturn’s transit through Cancer has affected each of us relative to the sign Cancer rules from our ascendent.
