The Sun

Solar activity reached moderate levels following an M1.1 flare at 10/1255 UTC from a region just beyond the SE limb, and an M1.7 at 10/2328 UTC from AR 353. In addition, a few mid- and upper-level C-class flares were observed, mainly from the aforementioned region and from Region 3538 (N20W73, Cai/beta). Region 3538 continued to show growth as it reached the western limb, but foreshortening prohibited an accurate magnetic analysis. Region 3536 (N06W57, Dao/beta) produced a C6.5 flare at 10/1907 UTC with an associated 10cm radio burst (230 sfu). Region 3539 (N10W33, Dai/beta) exhibited growth and development as it made its way towards the western limb, though it remained mostly inactive. Region 3541 (S21E10, Eai/beta-gamma) developed a gamma area near the trailer spots, though it remained quiet as well. Region 3546 (S24E36, Cai/beta) developed additional spots, and grew slightly, but was also inactive.

The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently above average, making retrograde effects moderately increased.

The solar wind environment was slightly enhanced, likely attributed to a possible grazing transient. Total magnetic field strength gradually peaked at 10 nT, Bz had a couple of southward deviations to -8 nT, and solar wind speeds averaged around 410 km/s. Phi angle remained in a positive orientation throughout most of the period.

There is a 20% chance of solar activity, with a 5% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.


The Moon

The waning moon is currently in Capricorn, at 17 degrees, 18' 24", at a velocity of 14.63 degrees per day.

The New moon is currently 29.3 days old. It is 371141.24 km from the centre of the Earth.

The next new moon is at 11:58:05, 11 Jan, 2024. The next full moon is at 17:54:43, 25 Jan, 2024.

Moon Is In Capricorn

Alright, listen up space cadets! Even if you're not a Capricorn, the cosmos is serving up some serious goat energy today as our beloved Moon is currently vacationing in the land of Capricorn. Forget the ‘cheese on the moon’ theory, because today, it's all about the ambitious, disciplined, and practical vibes of the mountain goat. Sure, the moon might be 366127.954227688km away (I told you I was a nerd), but its gravitational pull is still affecting your emotions and intuition. You might find yourself suddenly obsessed with organizing your DVD collection by director, color coding your socks, or drafting a five-year plan for your career. Yes, my friends, the Capricorn Moon has got you channeling your inner Sheldon Cooper. But don't panic just yet! This no-nonsense moon phase isn’t here to turn you into a party pooper. Instead, it encourages you to get your act together and make some solid plans. Think of it as your cosmic life coach, pushing you towards success and achievement. It's like your very own Yoda, only less green and more...well, moon-like. Now, remember, the Moon's tenure in Capricorn is shorter than a goldfish's attention span. In the next 24 hours, it'll flit over to Aquarius, turning your focus from practical matters to innovative ideas and social causes. So, take advantage of this productivity boost while you can! In a nutshell: embrace your inner nerd, channel that Capricorn "go-getter" spirit, and get things done! And if anyone questions your sudden urge to alphabetize your spice rack, just tell them the Moon made you do it. Trust me, it’s a great conversation starter.

Mercury in Sagittarius: The Cosmic Stand-Up Comedy Show

Ladies, gentlemen, and celestial beings, lend me your astral ears! Our petite cosmic speedster, Mercury, has jetted off into the grand realm of Sagittarius, making a whopping 147,544,443.139354438km cosmic commute (yes, I've measured it), and let me tell you, things are about to get interesting!

You see, Mercury is like the universe's over-caffeinated intern - constantly jotting down details, organizing celestial spreadsheets, and keeping the cosmos on its toes. Sagittarius, on the other hand, prefers to kick back, dreaming of galactic road trips and philosophizing about the mysteries of the Milky Way. Now that these two have collided, we're in for a cosmic sitcom, and believe me, the universe is ready to binge-watch.

Imagine Mercury, clipboard in hand, trying to reign in Sagittarius, who's busy planning the next interstellar adventure. "We need to chart our course, double-check our provisions!" Mercury chatters, while Sagittarius is busy sending 'Wish you were here' postcards to distant galaxies. Yes, folks, it's like a nerdy version of 'The Odd Couple' on a cosmic scale.

But here's where things get really fun - when Mercury is in Sagittarius, words become high-octane rocket fuel. Debates could turn into verbal supernovas, and casual conversations might take you light-years away. Just remember to engage your brain before hitting the 'launch' button on your mouth. We wouldn't want any linguistic meteors causing unnecessary mayhem, would we?

And speaking of meteors, keep an eye out for those proverbial 'shooting stars' of opportunity. Sagittarius, our celestial archer, is always aiming for the next big thing. With Mercury's meticulousness and Sagittarius' vision, it's the perfect time for plotting your own cosmic journey. Whether it's a trip to an exotic locale, enrolling in quantum physics classes, or simply switching up your daily grind, now's the time to reach for the stars.

So, buckle up, space cadets! Mercury in Sagittarius promises a wild ride. Just remember, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey... and maybe the hilarious cosmic sitcom we

Venus

Venus is in Sagittarius

Venus is prograde at 15 Sag 08' 25", moving at 1.22 degrees per day, and is 186229206km away and receding.

Venus Is In Sagittarius

Alright my celestial star gazers, buckle up for a cosmic roller-coaster ride because our gal pal Venus has just checked into the free-spirited inn of Sagittarius. And trust me when I say, she's not here for a snooze fest. Oh no! She's packing a suitcase full of adventure, spontaneity, and a sprinkle...or two of romantic chaos. You know how in those sci-fi movies they talk about wormholes? Well, imagine Venus as your personal wormhole, catapulting you out of your comfort zone and into uncharted territories. You might even find yourself doing the Macarena at a salsa class or signing up for an exotic cooking course. Why? Because Venus in Sagittarius is all about expanding your horizons, stepping out of your bubble, and embracing your inner Indiana Jones or Lara Croft. Now, if you're already in a relationship, don't panic. This isn't a celestial signal to swap your partner for a more exotic model. But maybe it's time to shake things up a bit. How about a spontaneous road trip to that weird museum you both joked about? Or perhaps learning Klingon together? Just remember, love during this transit is like a marshmallow - best enjoyed light, fluffy, and not too sticky. For all the single Pringles out there, keep your eyes peeled and hearts open. Love may pop up in the most unexpected places - like in the self-help section of a bookstore, during a random online gaming session, or even on a flight to a place you can't pronounce. But before you start throwing caution (and your savings) to the wind, let's remember that Sagittarius has a bit of a reputation. It loves to live large and sometimes exaggerates, kind of like fish stories. So, try not to get carried away by the glitz and glamour. Not everything that glitters is gold, sometimes it's just very convincing glitter. In short, while Venus is dancing the cha-cha in Sagittarius, make sure you pack a sense of adventure, an open mind and maybe a spare change of clothes (you never know). Just remember to keep an eye on your wallet, especially when you get that sudden urge to buy a dozen alpacas because they looked cute. Trust me on this one. I'm an astrologer, I know things. So, step into the spotlight of positivity and let your inner adventurer run wild! After all, life is too short to say no to a good cosmic party!

Mars

Mars is in Capricorn

Mars is prograde at 04 Cap 57' 29", moving at 0.75 degrees per day, and is 357732887km away and approaching.

Mars Is In Capricorn

"Engage!" as Captain Picard would say. Well, folks, Mars has slipped into its power suit and MacGyver'd a makeshift office in the stern, pragmatic sign of Capricorn. This is not a drill! So, dust off your old calculators, pull out your graph paper, and get ready to do some serious celestial number crunching. Mars in Capricorn is a bit like Spock at a Starfleet conference - all logic, strategy, and a cunning eye for detail. No time for fantasies about teleporting to a tropical beach, my friends. But hey, don't fret! This isn’t about being a stick-in-the-mud, it's about making those dreams a reality. And let's be honest, who wouldn't like their own personal holodeck? The upside? The red planet’s time in Capricorn is perfect for fine-tuning the warp core of your life. It's about asking the right questions, like "Why am I spending so much time in this cubicle?" or "How can I make my spaceship go faster?" Yes, Mars wants action, and Capricorn wants productivity. It's like a cosmic productivity seminar but without the stale coffee and questionable pastries. Remember though, both Mars and Capricorn could give a Klingon a run for his money in terms of determination and sheer grit. This is the perfect time to boldly go where you've been procrastinating to go before! However, beware of becoming too much like a Borg drone, single-mindedly pursuing your goals without a care for those around you. So, remember to balance your ambition with a healthy dose of empathy, because as Picard once said, "There can be no justice so long as laws are absolute". In the same vein, there can be no fulfillment if all we chase is success without compassion. In a nutshell, my star-trekking friends, it's time to take a leaf out of Captain Picard's book: "Seize the time, Meribor. Live now; make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again." And so we shall, under the watchful, strategic eye of Mars in Capricorn.

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Howdy, cosmic voyagers! Now, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. Jupiter, that big ol' planet of wisdom and cosmic luck, has decided to take a vacation in Taurus, the Bull's territory - and oh boy, things are about to get interesting! So, imagine for a moment, Jupiter as an eccentric professor on sabbatical, packing up his telescope and ponderous philosophy books, and heading off to Taurus, the laid-back, wine-sipping, cheese-loving, kinda stubborn Bull's pasture. And no, Jupiter didn't get lost in the Milky Way, this cosmic convergence is gonna shake things up for all of us. First off, Taurus, being the sensual hedonist he is, is going to teach Jupiter a thing or two about enjoying the finer things in life. No more contemplating the galaxies, it's time to smell the roses, Jupiter! But wait, there's more to it. This isn't just about Jupiter learning to chillax. It's about us learning to balance our spiritual quest with earthly pleasures. Remember folks, you can meditate till the cows come home, but don't forget to enjoy that delicious piece of chocolate cake too! Then, there's the money aspect. Jupiter is like your kooky rich uncle who gives out dollar bills like confetti. And Taurus? He's the sensible cousin who knows how to invest and grow that cash. So, while Jupiter in Taurus might tempt you to splurge on that shiny new gadget or designer dress, remember, a penny saved is a penny earned. But don't get too carried away trying to balance your checkbook, because this is also a time to work towards your dreams. Think of it as a cosmic kick in the pants to get you moving. Make a list, check it twice, and then get to work. With Jupiter's optimistic vibes and Taurus's tenacity, you've got the perfect recipe for success. So, in a nutshell: enjoy life, save some cash, and chase your dreams. Oh, and remember, the answer to life, the universe, and everything is...42! (Just kidding, it's whatever you want it to be.) May the cosmic forces be with you! P.S. No astrologers or bulls were harmed in the writing of this horoscope.

Saturn in Pisces: The Cosmic Coach

Alright, folks. Buckle up and tuck in those aura skirts because Saturn, our celestial taskmaster, has taken a celestial jaunt to Pisces, the dreamy mystic of the zodiac. Now, don't panic. I know Saturn gets a bad rap for being kind of a cosmic buzzkill, but this is actually a good thing. Think of him as the Professor McGonagall to your Harry Potter - strict, but with your best interests at heart.

Saturn in Pisces is like a cosmic Coachella for your dreams. It's the perfect time to dust off that mental vision board you've been storing in the attic of your mind and start turning those daydreams into plans. Want to write the next 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'? Now's the time to start drafting. Dreaming of opening an alien-themed coffee shop? Let's get those business plans brewing.

But be warned, Saturn doesn't do half-baked ideas. If you're going to do something, do it right. Saturn is about as subtle as a supernova when it comes to pointing out the flaws in your plan. But remember, he's not here to rain on your parade, he’s just ensuring your dreams have a sturdy foundation in reality. So, when Saturn knocks on the door of your dreams, don’t throw a privacy tantrum. Welcome him in, offer him a cup of astral tea, and listen to his wisdom.

Now, with all this astral attention on Pisces, the realm of sleep and dreams, you might find yourself a bit restless or anxious. If counting sheep isn't cutting it, try counting stars instead. Meditate, go for a moonlit walk, practice deep breathing, and keep a dream journal by your bed. You never know when Saturn might drop some cosmic wisdom in your dreams.

So, as Saturn sidles into Pisces, let's embrace the cosmic coaching session. It might be a bit uncomfortable, but hey, no one ever said reaching for the stars would be easy. Just remember, the universe has your back...and your front, and your sides, and your top, and your bottom. Basically, the universe is giving you a cosmic hug. Enjoy!

Enterprise Log: Uranus in Taurus

Fellow Starfleet Members, brace yourselves! The stubborn Bull (Taurus) has been boarded by the rebellious and unpredictable alien (Uranus)! Imagine Spock deciding to ditch logic for interpretive dance, or Scotty giving up his beloved engines to pursue a career in knitting. That's the magnitude of chaos we're talking about! This will be like trying to navigate a warp-speed asteroid field while sipping Earl Grey tea...comfortingly familiar yet wildly disorienting!

The Taurus part of our cosmic DNA prefers the comfort of the Starfleet uniform and the predictability of replicated meals. But Uranus? He’s that rogue Q entity causing all sorts of interdimensional mischief! And what's his playground this time? The Bank of Ferengi! Expect some radical upgrades to your Galactic Credit accounts, cadets. We might even see the rise of brand-new forms of currency. Latinum-backed Tribble Coin, anyone?

On a personal level, this cosmic event might make us feel like we're trapped in a malfunctioning holodeck. We might begin questioning our reliance on material possessions. Do we really need that fifth pair of anti-gravity boots or the latest model of tricorder? Can we break free from the Orion Syndicate debt collectors, the looming specter of Federation taxes, and the never-ending rent for our starbase apartments?

It's time to rethink our approach to the material world. Phasers set to “change”, team! Resistance, as they say, is futile. And who knows? By the end of this space ride, we might just find ourselves in an improved universe, one where money serves us rather than the other way around.

So buckle up, crew members! Remember, it's not the destination, it's the journey. And this journey is being helmed by Uranus, the universe's favorite mischief-maker. It's going to be a bumpy, yet exciting ride!

Neptune Is In Pisces

Alright, star gazers, it's time to get our cosmic groove on because Neptune, the blue giant of dreams, has sashayed its way into Pisces. Now, I know what you're thinking – "Neptune's in Pisces? But that's like 4534203414.528867722km away!" But hold your horses, Einstein, because this transit is less about physical distance and more about emotional voyages. See, Neptune in Pisces is like having a cosmic disco ball in the sky, casting a kaleidoscope of emotions all over us humble Earthlings. It’s like a massive emotional karaoke where everyone gets up to sing their own tune, but somehow, we all end up harmonizing perfectly. Suddenly, those petty differences that usually feel as significant as the Star Wars vs. Star Trek debates seem as pointless as a solar-powered flashlight. Now, don't go thinking you can sit back, pop some popcorn, and binge-watch the latest season of "Real Housewives of the Zodiac." Nope! This is a call to action, folks. It's time to roll up the sleeves of your tie-dye shirt, dust off your thought bubbles, and figure out what you can contribute to our interstellar potluck of progress and healing. Think of this as the perfect time to sign up for that "How to Communicate with Aliens 101" course you've been eyeing, or maybe start your own home altar dedicated to the mysteries of quantum physics. Whatever floats your cosmic boat, my friends. And remember, this is not just about finding your niche in the universe, but also sharing your newly discovered passion with others. Like a science fair, but instead of baking soda volcanoes, we're dealing with spiritual revelations and emotional depth. So, what are you waiting for? Neptune in Pisces is playing DJ for a while, and it's got your back. Now, let’s dance to the rhythm of the cosmos!

Pluto In Capricorn: The Darth Vader Edition

So, my dear earthlings, let's chat about a far-far-away reality where Pluto is dating Capricorn. Ah, the interstellar romance! If you think your long-distance relationship is tricky, try being 5370403380.030968666km apart! They're playing the whole 'hard to get' game on a universal level.

Now, Pluto, our cute little dwarf planet (don't call it small - size doesn't matter in space!) and Capricorn, the ambitious goat, are both control freaks. You thought Darth Vader was a micromanager? Try dealing with these two!

During this transit, they're so focused on their power couple goals that they might inadvertently force choke your empathy. You may find yourself sliding into the dark side, dismissing ideas that aren't yours, just like Vader dismissing Obi-Wan's claims of the high ground. "I have the high ground, Anakin!" "You underestimate my power!" Sounds familiar?

But remember, just like Vader, Pluto wants us to ditch our bad habits. Yes, this involves some Sith-style destruction, but hey, even the Death Star had a recycling program! So, be intentional about what you destroy and create. It's like building your own lightsaber - choose wisely!

So, embrace the Vader within you, but remember, the Force is all about balance. Don't let the dark side overpower you during this transit. And if you start feeling a little too Vader-ish, just remember, he did eventually redeem himself... after throwing an old man down a reactor shaft, but hey, nobody's perfect.

Current Planetary Positions

 

The Sun

The Sun

Sun Conjunct Moon

Your individuality and personality seem at one today. You feel like you really know and understand yourself and what it is that you want and need to do. Today might be a good day to shine light on your unconscious attitudes and habit patterns with the hope of improving your weak points. Change the areas of your personality that you aren't satisfied with.

The Sun

The Sun

Sun Trine Uranus

Today is a good day to pour your creativity and self-expression into coming up with new ways of doing things. Positive surprises are likely today as your aura is ready for the new and unusual. By going off the beaten pathway, you may open up many possibilities for further spiritual and personal growth. You feel free today from all restrictions and you want to fly like the eagle, unbounded by any restraints. Soar high and don't limit yourself.

Mercury

Mercury

Mercury Square Neptune

Confusion is likely today in your relationships with other people. Take care and read all the fine print. Stay away from taking permanent legal actions as your thinking is colored by who knows what. You may be suckered into something you don't want to do or don't believe in, so watch your step. Misunderstandings in communicating with others is possible. Remember, they may not be hearing what you are trying to say. Nervous anxiety and tension may make you feel listless today. Don't let your imagination carry you away.You might have problems concentrating because your mind is often wandering. Your thinking is exceptionally imaginative, intuitive, and creative. Stretching the truth, whether done consciously or not (or a bit of both), is associated with this position. Bored with anything dull, routine, or lifeless, you often dramatize or connect higher meaning to ordinary events and situations. You are often vague in your communications, purposefully or not, as you resist being pinned down to any one opinion or stance. This is partly due to your ability to see so many different points of view and perspectives. Logical, detail-oriented work and studies are not designed for your way of thinking and learning. Creative presentations, ripe with images and imagery, are what grab your attention and interest. Your style of communication, or possibly thinking, is often self-defeating, and you should consciously avoid a tendency to give up on projects or plans before they even get off the ground. Planning ahead is not a preference, as you prefer to move along running on the fuel of inspiration and intuition.Your style of communication may be unusual, perhaps with many pauses or digressions. You may be deliberately vague or unintentionally so, depending on your nature. Some of you are great storytellers.Sample interpretation from the Merlin report — Your mind is highly imaginative and creative and you possess dramatic, artistic, or musical abilities. As a child, you enjoyed daydreaming, fantasizing, pretending, and probably lived in “your own little world” a good deal. You perceive things which are not obvious to other people and you have an uncanny ability to “read” people and situations without being told anything about them. However, you must learn to discriminate between a true psychic perception and your imagination. Learning to discipline and focus your mind is necessary if you wish to use all of your creative potential. Otherwise, you could be simply a dreamer.Communication with others is difficult for you because you often find words frustrating and inadequate to express your experiences and perceptions. Also, you may purposefully mystify or deceive others.Some Famous People with the Mercury in Hard Aspect to Neptune: Squares – Bob Dylan, Jim Morrison, Donald Trump, Jim Bakker, Mae West, Spencer Tracy, Tom Snyder, Rich Little, Jack London, Bob Dylan; Oppositions – Bono (U2), Marlene Dietrich, Richard Chamberlain, Florence Henderson, Charles De Gaulle, Christian Dior.

Today is the day to expand and set new plans into action. Broaden your horizons and don't limit your possibilities. Business ventures are favored, as is higher education, legal matters, spiritual endeavors and charitable pursuits. Luck is all around you today, but you have to make it happen. Don't just sit there waiting for it to come to you.You tend to be restless and prone to boredom. You need a partner who can keep up with your lightning responses to your environment - and one who truly understands your love of intellectual competition and sparring.You have tremendous personal resources with which to achieve your goals. Although the goals you set for yourself are likely to be somewhat ambitious, you are willing to work hard to see that they are achieved. Ever since you were a child and learned to invent indoor games to amuse yourself, you have steadily worked at developing your intellectual skills. This prepared you to deal well with competitive situations in your adult life.Communication is important to you. Your dramatic delivery and flair for using the right words make you a formidable opponent in any debate. It is particularly difficult to win a debate with you because you only present information that is well documented and convincing. You also use this skill to come to the aid of others who cannot defend themselves intellectually, which is admirable indeed!Others admire your confidence and straightforwardness. You respect others who stand firm on their convictions and have high ambitions. It is important that everyone who deals with you does so with honesty and integrity.In your love life, you appreciate a partner who is intellectually strong. You have a strong sex drive, but without the mental component, no relationship will last very long. You also seek a partner with spiritual consciousness. Your warmth and enthusiasm on a sexual level is apparent, and you don’t tire easily. Your interest doesn’t fade easily over time. — Interpretation sample from our LoveStyles report.This aspect indicates a harmony between your intellect and your physical strength, and you will most likely have little difficulty achieving your goals in life. It may appear to others that you are lucky sometimes, but you are also good at applying your talents to attain the desired results. You have a natural ability to be in the right place to grab new opportunities or to initiate a well-timed project. You are often successful in competition but sometimes may not even enter the contest because it doesn’t seem worth it to you.You are honest and forthright in your dealings with others, and you tend to trust others readily. You can be a bit careless about spending money, however, and this is probably because you are so eternally optimistic that there will always be plenty around. The possibility of failure does not enter your mind, although success itself is not that important to you–you’re just being you.In your relationships you are attracted to others who also seek a harmonious lifestyle. Your sexual nature is very strong, but you seek more than physical gratification from your mate. You want someone who will share in your life entirely and grow to know and understand you intimately.

This is an important part of your attractiveness to women. — Interpretation from our LoveStyles: About Him report.Note on the differences between trines and sextiles: The trine aspect is the more dynamic of the two harmonious aspects. Those with the sextile can call upon these traits when needed, and those with the trine between the Mars and Jupiter have incorporated the traits of the aspect into their personalities, expressing them naturally and consistently.Alternate, short interpretations: Interpretation sample from the Merlin report – Mars sextile Jupiter or Mars trine Jupiter: *Your self-confidence and vitality are strong and you believe you can do just about anything you want to. You have an enterprising spirit, a good sense of timing, and the ability to sense what will succeed and what won’t. You usually make fortunate decisions in work or business activities. You enjoy healthy competition and you have a rather playful, good-humored attitude toward it. You mostly compete with yourself to see how far you can go or how much you can accomplish. You like to keep stretching your limits.Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report – You are usually able to direct your will to productive activities. You find the transcendent component in each relationship and build upon it. You exemplify joy in your daily activities.Interpretation sample from the Karmic Insight report – You have developed the capacity to direct your masculine/active, yang energies in healthy and positive ways. Thus, you have confidence in your “masculine” strengths and abilities. Ennobled by ideals of fair play and concern for the broader social implications of your choices, your actions are most often fortunate, leading to success and increased opportunities. A gift for leadership and inspiring others is also yours. Physical playfulness is an important way you can re-create and rejuvenate yourself.Some Famous People with Mars in Harmonious Aspect to Jupiter: Sextiles – Bill Cosby, Drew Barrymore, Serena Williams, Richard Speck, Vanessa Redgrave, Robert Pattinson, Peter O’Toole, Oliver North, Galileo, Patrick Duffy, Phil Donahue, Catherine Deneuve, Danny DeVito; Trines – Upton Sinclair, J.

Notes about Transits

Mars is all about action, and where Mars is in our chart with transits is a place where we are prepared to stand our ground. Mars transits can be really productive, but they can also be angsty, aggressive, and sometimes come from a place of anger. It's important to pay attention to how you direct that energy. Mars transits can last for up to a couple weeks.
Jupiter transits enhance your life with optimism and forward-thinking, and lasting for about a month, give you plenty of time to take advantage. Bigger and better is Jupiter's way of thinking, and should be yours as well.
Saturn transits, on the other hand, are where we get a major reality check, and if we’re not ready for them, they can be pretty rotten. Of course, if we’re prepared and up to the task, Saturn transits can also bring very well-deserved rewards, too. Saturn transits last a bit longer than Jupiter transits—usually 2 months or so at a time, but with retrograde cycles, you could be looking at the same lessons three times over a 6 month period.
The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto last for such a long time that they make long-lasting impacts on our lives. In fact, Neptune and Pluto can last for two to three years! Consider their effects, plan accordingly, and make them part of your life for the better.
