What Next, Batman?

Well, nothing really. This rest of this week is going to be very quiet…hear the tumbleweeds blowing across the cosmic desert? Ha, just kidding. It’s going to be slow, but not quiet in the least. The sounds you will be hearing are folks still quietly sobbing while licking their wounds after recuperating after the full moon in Scorpio. Oh, and of course people will be talking incessantly about their hopes and dreams…maybe even some of the good, dirty kinds. People will also be talking about money; not money that is owed or why-don’t-I-get-paid-more money talk, but about investments, family money, money to decorate or shop, or to buy property. More people will be purchasing lotto tickets, and other financials. People will be talking about music, books and their almighty important opinions also. So, you say, shrugging your shoulders. People talk all the time.

Yes my dear star watcher, this is true. However the planetary movements means that people are actually saying what they really think and feel, rather than blathering on to fill in that awkward silence that happens in intervals during the day.  Mercury, the chatterbox, traveling and energetic planet of communication has entered Taurus, and meets up with the bright warm sun in Taurus, and links hands with the happiest and most sincere planet, Jupiter. Jupiter, out of any other planet, heartily believes more is better and the most is best.

 All three heavenly bodies are working together in pragmatic, sensual Taurus. Taurus is an earth sign and focused on tangibles, such as real estate, food and of course really good textiles. Taurus wants to indulge in all things sensory, but is too pragmatic to get lost in it all. Taurus believes in being honest, and living in the reality of now. With Mercury, Jupiter and the Sun hanging out in Taurus, they all have picked up Taurus’s personality traits.

Now, what gives this cosmic trio it’s truly earnest edge? It would have to be because dreamy Neptune in spiritual, artistic Pisces is winking at a super sweet angle to this trio, encouraging them to be sensitive, compassionate and most important, vulnerable. Conversations will really matter this week. All of this earnest conversing is also a result of Saturn no longer screaming at Mercury from across the astrological wheel to just shut the bleep up. Saturn, being the big bad guy trying to tell everyone what to do, try his best to subdue Mercury. Saturn was often successful, since Saturn carries more clout than Mercury does. However, Saturn no longer has this hold on Mercury.

Oh? You say. That’s it for this week?

In response, I sigh. My dearies enjoy this quiet. Enjoy the after effects of surviving that full moon. This is because next week Venus goes retrograde and begins her efforts to complete old business from eight years ago. Does this make you slightly nervous? Did anything happen or go down eight years ago that still makes you pause? Even if you say no, we all know the answer really is yes. However, we shall get to that in time.

Dun-nu-nu-nu-nu-nu-nu-nu….
