At 8:18 a.m.: Venus enters Pisces

In the morning, Venus enters Pisces, the sign of its exaltation. While Venus transited Aquarius, romance was a more social prospect. We looked for ways to broaden our networks by engaging with others’ intellects. Friendships that once seemed entirely platonic could have blossomed into something more! Yet now, Venus slips into the warm waters of spiritual Pisces, where merging through the power of unconditional love is the ideal. This influence causes us to feel boundary-less, and so our relationships may reflect this quality—or better or for worse. It can be a period of bliss, where we feel closer to our loved ones than ever before. It can also amplify the tender emotions born of unrequited feelings, making this a time of longing, pining, and yearning. Venus in Pisces makes us particularly sensitive to the power of music, images, and aesthetics. Love might move us to tears, cleanse us of our sorrows, or wash over us in profound waves. We simply must be mindful that we do not get carried out to sea.

At 7:36 p.m.: Mercury is conjunct Pallas

After nightfall, Mercury and Pallas align in Aries, forecasting planning, strategy, and purposeful intent. Our eyes are on the prize. We know the moves to make to get us where we want to go. Feeling into our fire ensures that our independent spirit won’t be dampened, and our minds may be consumed with the idea of conquest. We’ll enjoy the thrill of the chase, as it provides us with an opportunity to show off our skills and impress with our personal flair. The “battle” we fight is one of wordplay, tact, and style. Our focus is honed, and the direct approach suits us best.
