The Saturn-Pluto Report: August 12-18, 2019

You probably already know what parts of your chart are affected by the Saturn-Pluto conjunction, but if you aren’t, CLICK HERE to visit the The Saturn-Pluto Bomb Shelter And Lounge on Facebook and we’ll figure it out!

For the most part, nothing is kicking the Saturn-Pluto hornet’s nest too hard this week. There’s a potentially difficult Full Moon in Aquarius on Wednesday, but that doesn’t interact so much with Saturn or Pluto. So if this Full Moon makes trouble for you? Hey… a change is as good as a rest, right?

Okay yeah, maybe I’m too optimistic sometimes. But Jupiter has gone direct in Sagittarius, and that’s likely to help things turn out better. Uranus has turned retrograde, but that’s not necessarily cause for alarm. And Saturn and Pluto, although both retrograde, remain at a relatively safe distance of about six degrees from each other. So, take a deep breath, exhale, and assess where you’re at.

Here’s when the Moon will be helping (or not):

The Moon spends most of the day Monday within conjunction range of Saturn and Pluto. Mondays are often stressful enough for people at the best of times, but I feel particularly bad for anyone working in Customer Service this day.

Starting around mid-day on Friday, the Moon in Pisces will be approaching the conjunction to Neptune. That might normally be a time when I’d be warning you about “delusions” and “not thinking clearly.” But you know what? Neptune sextile Saturn and Pluto has been one of the big saving graces this year, astrologically speaking. Neptune has given us all a little bit of hope and faith when we’ve needed it. So I’m not about to complain if the Moon decides to lend a hand with that… especially when it’s in effect Friday evening, after that lousy start to the week on Monday.
