This week: A somewhat cranky Cancer Full Moon, flavored by contentious Mars and Pluto; the Sun finishes up its journey through Capricorn with connections to Mars, Uranus, and Neptune, then enters future-facing Aquarius. Venus squares off with Jupiter, then comes together with Saturn to stabilize. Opportunities arise when Mercury connects with Venus and Saturn. And a listener question about Pluto transiting the 7th house and its impact on potential relationships. Plus: Lashing out, spiritual etiquette, and what’s squirming under the surface!
