Daily Feel for September 2nd: The day begins a little on the shaky side, lots of nervous energy flying around… perhaps some excitement, take care doing anything in the AM, we can get emotionally distracted or over-sensitive about things.. Take a deep breath and just remind yourself that “Rome was not built in a day”. Check what and to whom you make promises, and when others offer them to you, it’s best to take them with a pinch of salt, the intentions are good, but the follow through likely won’t be. Watch for excessiveness, in behaviors and spending. By the afternoon that nervous energy should be settling down a bit, reaching decisions should be much easier, and if you need to convince other’s of the plan or idea, there is a very good chance that you will.

Daily Feel for September 3rd When the Gemini energy kicks in we could be feeling restless, maybe a little bored, feeling like we should be going somewhere or doing something… it might also be a challenge to focus our minds or energy on thing. The good news is, Gemini is very adept at multi-tasking, so if we can just channel the restless energy into constructive energy, a lot could get accomplished today. We are rearing to go intellectually too, excited and enthusiastic about our ideas, we eagerly share them with other, who are bound to get caught up in the positive-ness of it all. Our intuitions are spot on, and our creative drive is in top gear, a wonderful day to get expressive in the craft area… However, some of us may get carried away in our enthusiasm, so take heed if a loved one suggests the idea is a little out of your league. There is a risk of high hopes with unrealistic plans gaining momentum over logic and common sense. Life Area’s most likely affected: Health/hygiene & service, community, daily appointments/errands, entertainment, kids & pets, and relationships/partnerships Signs most likely affected: Pisces, Libra and Aries Secondary Signs most likely affected: Virgo.

Daily Feel for September 4th: It is not the kind of day where matters should be forced; you aren’t going to get anywhere and may just upset someone. While it may be a challenge in some instances, patience is highly recommended today… If we can balance out the energies today, it could turn out to be a productive and positive one… On the one hand, we have some nervous energy floating around, encouraging us towards panic thinking, sort of like being in ‘crisis mode”… However, on the other hand, we have a very cheerful and helpful energy floating around us too… Balance the two energies and viola, we could almost forget about the negatives for whole day. J Some folks may find themselves on the answering end of a call for assistance, not to worry the experience will be a positive and uplifting one for you and the person/situation in need. Life Area’s most likely affected: Health/hygiene & service, Career & Duty, and friendships, new experiences, unique situations. Signs most likely affected: Gemini, Virgo, Aries, and Leo Secondary Signs most likely affected: Pisces, Libra and Aquarius.

Daily Feel for September 6th: Roll up your shirt sleeves today folks, because it’s “A Work a day” today.. lots can get done. It’s super difficult to shirk our responsibilities, so we may as well get right to them.. Finish off tasks and keep busy, the day will fly by, and at the end of it you are likely to feel a sense of accomplishment, putting up your feet for an evening of well earned relaxation.   Life Area’s most likely affected: Health/hygiene, work/service to and for others, career (could represent health care workers) and travel/visitors from other lands, new studies or learning a of a new craft.                                                                                                                                   Signs most likely affected: Cancer, Aries and Virgo                   Secondary signs most likely affected: Capricorn, Libra and Pisces.

Daily Mood for August 20:

The Sagittarius moon is going to brighten things up a bit for us all, with his positive and cheerful outlook on things… A well needed pick me up after the intense Scorpio moon… For some of us travel could be on the agenda, travel that may include an adventure or too… The next couple of days will be good for sorting through possessions, giving them away or recycling them.. making space for the new, or just getting organized.. the energy is there to get lots done. Some of us could find ourselves in deep conversations about all manner of things, and some may get rather passionate about the conversation, no worries though, as the energy is positive, making the discussion a time of sharing knowledge and not one of contention. (🤞) An excellent time for romance, or perhaps making new friends… However, as much as these few days are positive and friendly,  watch out for sudden changes in mood, some folks or situations may shock us.. Take care not to allow impulsive reactions take the lead. 

Signs most likely affected: Sagittarius, Taurus, Aquarius, Aries, Gemini and Cancer.

Secondary signs most likely affected: Scorpio, Leo, Libra and Capricorn… (almost covers the whole zodiac 😊)

Daily Mood for August 21st

Whoa, lots of energy floating around today,  which is fabulous, take care not to get carried away with too much optimism though, it’s easy to “expand” our ideas until they end up in fantasy land… keep reality at the door… Don’t take a lot of notice of what others think of you, those of us who are less then confident, may feel the pressure of others, who either undermine our confidence even more, or who expect way more from us than we can possible give. Duty calls and responsible solutions are expected, time to do some adulting for some… So much can get done today, but we gotta bring in patience… not everything will go as planned, but things will get done today… Spread optimism and chirpy, cheery feelings where ever you go today… the world sure as heck could do with as much as it can get... 😊

Signs most likely affected: Sagittarius, Leo, Aries and Libra

Secondary Signs most likely affected: Gemini and Aquarius. 

Daily Mood for August 22nd: 

The Moon moves into the sign of Capricorn at 4:59 pm (ET) @ 1:59 pm (PT). Please Click here to see our past post on the Moon in Capricorn.  The Capricorn moon is duty bound and business orientated.  

The Sun moves into the Sign of Virgo @ 10:19 pm (ET) @ 7:19 pm (PT). Please Click here to see our past post on the Sun in Virgo. Virgo, where would we be with out you guys, seeing all the little details that we miss.. Virgo is a service, health/hygiene focused sign. 

The back ground energy for the month will change from the fiery energy of the Leo Sun, to a more subdued and cautious Virgo Sun… Both the Moon and the Sun are in Earth signs for the next couple of days.. Earth is grounding, sensible and sometimes overly stubborn. 

We can think more clearly now, our thoughts are positive, however, they could raise some concerns for some of us.. Decisions can be reached during the next few days, and it could be easier to convince others about our ideas. Dealings with the opposite sex should go fairly smoothly, perhaps a good time to give hubby/wifey that “honey do list” 😋. Clearing up loose ends in the business field are likely… May be a good time for Estate sales. Towards the night hours, (PT) and as the new day dawns on the 23rd, deceptions will start to sneak about.. take care for the next few days not to make long term commitments, you may be excited about a prospect or an idea, which isn’t what it seems to be… Don’t be drawn into shady deals.. check your sources. 

Signs most likely affected: Sagittarius, Leo, Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo and Aries

Secondary signs most likely affected: Gemini, Aquarius, Scorpio, Pisces and Libra. 

Daily Mood for August 23:

We are now under a Capricorn Moon energy, and a Virgo Sun energy, both are Earth Signs. As the sun rises, our ability to sniff out “deception” falls… take care in dealings this morning, poor judgement today may produce future disappointments. If it sounds too good to be true, have another listen or look before making any commitments. Following on the energy of yesterday, abrupt changes in mood will upset the status quo.. Some changes are unavoidable, others will be “manufactured” to create illusion or mild chaos. Watch for EGO clashes. The energy is high, but co-operation isn’t… expect some ruffled feathers. Past health issues may pop up, either a recurrence of a past illness, a conversation of a past illness, or the “discovery” of a workable, safe solution to an ongoing issue. Napping is always highly recommended to help give us a “reset”. As we move through the day, our optimism rises, if there has been a situation that needs a solution, this afternoon, that solution may present itself. For most of us, it’s a fairly optimistic day, getting slightly more serious as the evening draws near… Perhaps, this day, will prove to be a positive and product one, even if it is just chit chatting about future plans and ideas. 

Signs most likely affected: Capricorn, Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Taurus and Leo.

Secondary signs most likely affected: Libra, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Aquarius. 

Re: Focus on Health body areas: The throat, tonsils, thyroid, cervical spine, jaw, vocal cords, neck and ears. (this is not medical advice, please always check with your health care provider and do your own research)

The Moon goes Void of Course at 11:30 pm (PT)

Daily Mood for August 24:

What a way to start a new week, 😊 For the most part today, should prove to be a rather laid back and relaxing day.  This energy may create a challenge if you have a pile of work do, as chilling with friends and chatting is far more appealing then rolling up the shirt sleeves and digging into that work load. The other challenge will be for those of us who like to spend money, as the desire to be extravagant is very strong, it’s a “what the heck, you only live once” kind of day…  Have fun, spend money, however, it’s advised that a little common sense via keeping an eye on the budget be brought into this “energy circle” 😊

Signs most likely affected: Capricorn and Libra. 

Secondary signs most likely affected: Cancer and Aries, I will also include Taurus.

The Moon goes void of course at 2:30 am (ET) 

Daily Mood for August 25:

A healthy balance between our thoughts, (logic) and our emotions is highly recommended, this will a background energy for the whole day… Some of us may need to pull back on our responses, such as “knee jerk” ones..

At 5:02 am (ET) 2:02 am (PT). The Moon moves into the sign of Aquarius.  Please Click here to see our past post on the Moon In Aquarius.  The energy will change from that of the business “grown up” energy of Capricorn, to the fun, explorative, questioning and humanitarian Aquarius energy.

Some folks could be “forced” to confront past hurts, this will be made more challenging, if the balance between our emotions and our logic is not maintained. Our self worth may come into question today, perhaps some of us will be harder on ourselves then we need to be… humans are not perfect, and sometimes we forget that, especially in this ever changing world… Self negative talk may push through to the surface, and while facing our past mistakes to learn from them, is a good thing, telling ourselves we are not smart or any other negative thing, is not going to help the human growth process. Take care of yourselves today, be as kind to YOU, as you would be to someone else you offer positive advice to. Issues surrounding security may be in focus, this could be relating to how we are “feeling” in that area, but in some instances, may also relate to physical security concerns, so keep your purse, wallet, phone and laptops secure when out and about, and be sensible when it comes to home/work securities. Details about anything and everything will be discussed today, a good thing in some instances, however, take care not to harp on (whine) about something to the point of exhausting your listener. Our thoughts may turn to subjects and situations relating to our health and anything connected to service industries, (hospitals, retail, cleaning, nannies, sitters, etc).  For some folks, today could turn out to be a “self discovery” day, transformations and the beginning of change for the better is possible. New interest in a healthy lifestyle will have some of us looking for recipes and work out programs. For those suffering from health issues, today may prove to present a positive answer or happier direction. It’s important to put our mindset towards the future and not be “gobbled up” by pasts experiences, today is a day of forward movement. Lots of nervous excitement in the air, take care not to rush around, accidents are possible when we don’t take note of our immediate surroundings. Practice Patience.

Signs most likely affected: Aquarius, Taurus, Virgo, Aries, Gemini and Cancer

Secondary signs most likely affected: Leo, Scorpio, Pisces, Libra, Sagittarius and Capricorn. 

Daily Mood for August 26:

Good Morning everyone👋 , hyperness is in the air, sort of “ants in the pants” energy… for some this could translate to feelings of anxiety, don’t forget to breathe  🧘‍♀️ If the budget allows, this is an excellent day to treat yourself, feelings of extravagance need attention.. Lending a helping hand today brings it’s own rewards. A questioning time for some of us, “am I on the right path?” “is this the job I want for ever?” “why am I not happy?”.. explore these thoughts, be honest with yourself when you do, you won’t change anything if you aren’t. Watch for deception, this can come from anywhere, including ourselves, if you know it’s a lie, do you really wanna tell it.. And for those trying to deceive the vulnerable (elderly etc.) Keep in mind that what you put out there, comes back to you “threefold”. However, having warned of deceptive behaviours, good things are on the agenda today, perhaps we just need to watch for them. 🙏 An excellent day to do some shopping, especially for the home, perhaps a manicure and a new clothing item wouldn’t go amiss either.. redecorating will put a whole new happy feel to your space, budget allowed of course. Watch emotional responses, it’s super easy to get all “hot under the collar” and let our temper take control.. Changes may occur today that we have no control over, keep the emotions in balance with the logic… (I know this is getting incredibly challenging to do these days, we live in a world where common sense seems to have been kidnapped, just do the best that you can). 🤷‍♀️  Great opportunity arises today, for us to “examine” our emotional responses.. “why do I react this way?”… By understanding our emotional reactions we are better equipped to see our personal triggers. 

Signs most likely affected: Aquarius, Cancer, Leo, Aries and Libra

Secondary signs most likely affected: Capricorn. 

August 27: Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces. See our post here.

Daily Mood for August 28th:

The morning might be frustrating, we are working hard, but nothing seems to be getting accomplished! It’s best to stick to routine tasks, being mindful of the smaller details we might usually over look. We could run into some “attitude” today, a sort of “I don’t care, not my problem” energy… take no heed, but be aware of your own attitude. Some folks may be acting up or acting out of character, their actions or words knocking us sideways for a short while.. pay extra attention to loved ones with dementia and the such. Use your mind today, he is up and running and excited to be of assistance.  By the afternoon the energy shifts into a slower pace, where conversations of a philosophical nature come to the fore. We are feeling more cheerful and “lighter” then we were in the morning, and while mistakes will be made today, (just like any other day) we have the unique ability today, to learn from them in a positive and uplifting manner. Please take extra care while driving or using such things as power tools today.

Some folks may travel today, or begin to make plans for future travel. Self interests may dominate the day. Community, neighbourly interaction may be on the agenda. A Busy day, with chores and errands to be done.

Signs most likely to be affected: Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, Cancer and Leo:

Secondary signs most likely to be affected: Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius.

August 29th @ 10:38 pm (ET) @ 7:38 pm (PT) the Moon moves into the sign of Aries. Aries is fire, action and high energy… Our energy level’s could go up, prompting us to do all kinds of things, getting stuff done that we have been putting on the back burner for a while.. Aries is also very impulsive and can be impatient. Tempers may erupt.,, Please Click Here to see our past post on the Moon in Aries.

Daily Mood for August 29th:

Oooo La La… 💜❤ Romance is in the air today… unexpected “hook ups”.. or re connections with past loves, anything is possible under this energy… However, we can also fall “head over heels in love” with folks that perhaps we wouldn’t normally “consider” is it just the energy of the day, or is this what you have been searching for? Be extra careful when getting “involved, it’s not a good idea to jump in the deep end head first.. Long term commitments (relationship/partnership wise) should be put off until another day if possible.

A good day for travel, creative projects, hanging with kids/pets, or delving into study.

Signs most likely affected: Pisces, Libra and Aries

Secondary Signs most likely affected: Virgo.

Daily Mood for August 30th:

As the sun rises, our thoughts and discussions turn to ones that enrich our souls and help to “lighten our load”.  Take care around sensitive types, emotions are running high, and folks with a “nervous disposition” may experience feelings of anxiety, imagining all manner of things.. If you can’t help them to “settle” leave them be for a while… It’s amazing what a little creativity can do to bring us into a better frame of mind. The afternoon calls for a balance, emotionally that is… as much as we want to express ourselves emotionally, it’s not always the best place or the right time to do so…  A lot can get accomplished today, but only if we employ patience and logic alongside the emotional self. Selfish folks may upset others today. Overly optimistic attitudes push forward some workable ideas.  A good day for visiting with friends, taking action, running errands, doing chores, dealings with community, connecting with our career and expanding our imagination.

Signs most likely affected: Aries, Aquarius, Gemini, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer and Leo.

Secondary signs most likely affected: Libra, Sagittarius, and Pisces.

Daily Mood for August 31st.

Watch the purse today, it is going to be very easy to go over budget, especially if we are feeling upset or happy, either mood can prompt a shopping trip. Some folks could be a challenge to others today, we are feeling spiritually stronger, this will come in handy when dealing with folks who will not “back down” .. It’s a good day for faith, so spread the light wherever you want to today.. our faith in something greater then us is gaining momentum… and I don’t think religion defines “faith” like it used to… Instead, faith is growing stronger within our own hearts and souls. Focus is most likely to be on the way we make a living, our duty to others, how we respond to authority, along with our day to day chores and errands… some of us may get together with our neighbours.

Signs most likely to be affected: Aries, Libra and Leo

Secondary signs most likely to be affected: Aquarius.

  • Versatile, changeable, fun, neighbourhood knowledgeable and chatty, are a few of the traits of our Gemini friends and loved ones. They are fun to be around, happy to try new experiences with either quick mind or one that may be slightly slower, but equally capable of gathering little bits of knowledge along the journey we call life.. However, they can get bored easily, and when this happens the usual happy go lucky attitude can change to one of moodiness and sensitivity.

To a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Libra.
  • 5) Aspects for May 22: Venus in Cancer experiences a challenging aspect to Neptune in Aries early hours (ET). The Sun in Gemini experiences a variable aspect to Uranus in Gemini.

  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Virgo

NOTES:

  • 1) Aspects: May 23. The Moon experiences 7 aspects, most are challenging. Don’t expect things to go the way you may have envisioned today. Unexpected messages bring news you may not have wanted, but that will force you to make some decisions that need to be made. Probably not a good day to try and do any decorating or updating to your “safe space” as it’s not likely to go smoothly. Changes may be on the horizon for some of us. Love sent to anyone who may experience a loss during this time. Take care of your health when feeling under the weather, if you listen well to your body it will let you know when it needs a little bit of self TLC. Boredom may be an issue, feelings of restlessness may bring out the worst in some, Finding a healthy way of releasing extra energy is recommended. The signs likely to most affected are: Virgo, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Aquarius and Cancer. To a lessor effect, Pisces, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra and Capricorn. 
  • 2) Aspects, May 24: The Moon experiences two aspects, a challenging one and a positive one. the last occurring as she goes void of course. The day begins with a challenging aspect, and getting our point across might not be an easy task. Some of us could be feeling sensitive about an issue, however, finding someone to have empathy or compassion to those feelings might be a tough go. Better to leave any emotionally sensitive discussion until another day if possible. By the evening, things should start to get better, with life on the home front expanding in positivity… News of a pregnancy might be in the cards for some. The Sun in Gemini experiences a positive aspect with Neptune in Aries, late into the night, so we might not all be able to take advantage of this… but if you can go for it… Our imagination is on fire and who knows what fantastic ideas can be birthed now. The signs likely to be most affected are: Gemini and Sagittarius.

May 25 @ 10:34 am (ET) @7:34 am (PT) The Moon moves into the sign of Libra

  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Libra

NOTES:

  • 1) May 25 is Memorial Day in the USA, we wish our neighbours an enjoyable and safe long weekend. 
  • 2) Aspects for May 25: The Moon experiences 5 aspects from early afternoon into late evening. 3 are positive aspects and two are challenging aspects. Some of us could get the itch to do something fun and new with our surroundings. Negotiations could go well if the right people are doing the negotiating, otherwise there will be a stalemate. An unexpected outcome to an ongoing situation is likely. Dealings with loved ones and work mates may not go smoothly and some folks could get their feathers ruffled. Best not to push emotional issues right now. Check your emotions, are you over reacting or is this mood warranted? Dreams could be dashed now, so take care who you share your deepest wishes with. In the PT zone, around 9pm, Mars in Taurus will hit a snag with Pluto in Aquarius. A situation needs to come to an end, but someone might be being more stubborn then they need to be, making it impossible to come to a mutual agreement. The signs most affected are: Libra, Gemini, Aries, Taurus and Aquarius and to a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Leo.
  • 3) Aspects for May 26: Mars in Taurus hits a snag with Pluto in Aquarius in the ET zone, early hours. (see above). The Moon makes a total of 3 aspects beginning early in the morning and throughout the morning hours, 2 Aspects are challenging, one is positive. The Sun in Gemini experiences a positive aspect with Pluto in Aquarius just before noon. There may be push back regarding a situation, or bickering between family members, (especially kids), it’s a tense sort of day, with some of feeling like we are on guard. We could balk at our responsibilities today, so it’s probably not the best time to say yes to any added responsibilities. There is a sense of fun in the air, of not taking things too seriously, it’s more of a “lets try this” feel to the day. Keep in mind that new experiences may not go as planned. Signs likely to most affected are, Taurus, Aquarius, Cancer, Aries and Gemini, to a lessor effect, Scorpio, Leo, Capricorn and Sagittarius.
  • 4) Aspects for May 27 up to Moon into Scorpio. The Moon experiences 3 aspects, only one is a positive one. The first aspect begins early in the am (ET) having occurred in the PT already. A good connection between the mind and emotions, making decision making easier to do, creating a sense of calm in the day. Some of us may not like the way things are heading on the domestic front, perhaps folks aren’t doing their chores or getting homework done on time, and things just keep piling on top of each other. Do what you can, take a breather and when the energy presents, get a little bit more organized. The signs likely to be affected are, Libra, Gemini, Cancer and Aries, to lessor effect, Sagittarius and Capricorn.

May 27 @ 8:53pm (ET) @ 5:53pm (PT) The Moon moves into the sign of Scorpio

  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Scorpio

NOTES:

  • 1) Aspects May 27th: The Moon experiences one challenging aspect late night PT zone. 
  • 2)Aspects May 28th: The Moon experiences a total of 7 aspects throughout the day into the night. 5 are challenging aspects taking place before noon, the last two aspects occurring late evening include one positive and one challenging. Venus experiences a challenging aspect late night. This could be a busy day for some, as there is a chaotic feel to the energy around us. A challenging day, as domestic/family duties clash with outside responsibilities, this could be a good time to balance out these life area’s. Change is in the air, this may be difficult for some folks to adjust to, and while others have been feeling eager and restless for change, this might not be the change you were anticipating. Take care when driving or using power tools. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, Taurus and Cancer and to a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Leo and Capricorn. 
  • 3) Aspects May 29th: The Moon experiences two aspects, one is positive, occurring late evening, (during voc) the other is challenging occurring late night PT zone. Likely, a much quieter and calmer day then yesterday… some of us may even feel slightly bored. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Cancer and Gemini, to a lessor effect, Taurus, Capricorn and Sagittarius. 
  • 4) Aspects May 30th up to Moon into Sagittarius. The Moon experiences two challenging aspects beginning in the early morning hours. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Gemini and Aries, to a lessor effect, Taurus, Sagittarius and Libra.

NOTES: 

  • 1) Aspects May 30th: Moon experiences 3 aspects, beginning just after noon, (challenging) with the other two, which are positive, beginning in the evening. A bit of a bumpy ride in the first part of the day, where resistance to something is strong. On the other hand, it’s possible that someone(s) are fighting hard for a change. (Likely within the community/neighbourhood). Through  persistent “rebellious” actions, something wonderful may happen… and may be connected to the change mentioned above. For the most part the afternoon should go well, with a healthy pinch of positivity thrown in. Signs most likely to be affected are, Sagittarius, Gemini, Aries and Aquarius, to a lessor effect, Libra and Leo. 
  • 2) Aspects May 31st: Moon experiences two challenging aspects before going void of course, and then experiences 3 more aspects. Positive, Challenging back to positive. Beginning early am and moving throughout the day into the evening. This is the day of the Full Moon. The early morning hours could bring a challenging few hours into the mix, communicating what you really think could be censored or muted. As we move through the day and after the Full Moon connection, things should start to ease up a bit.. Personal energy levels could be elevated, giving us the much needed motivation to get to those household chores and family responsibilities we may have been avoiding. If you have been suffering from ill health, today is a good day to take things seriously with a dash of light heartedness, your body will feel it and boost the healing. 
  • 3) FULL MOON in Sagittarius. The moon becomes full on May 31st at 4:45 am (ET) @ 1:45 am (PT). The full moon is traditionally believed to be a time of completion and endings. In modern times, we like to say it’s also a good time to finish up the projects we have had on the go but keep putting on back shelve for “later”. A suggestion for anyone thinking of initiating a relationship break up… please think carefully of what you say and how you say, we love Sagittarius for her fun loving ways, and explorative spirit, but she can be very blunt at times, hurting feelings without the intention of doing so. Her energy is upon us during this Full Moon.

Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx:         Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition:      Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares:             Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile:               Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine:                  Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.
