I’ve been a bit overwhelmed lately and the Daily Skywatch has been on hiatus but hopefully I’ll be back on track here for a while.

Mars is trine Pluto today, energizing us to step into positions of power and bestowing tremendous willpower.  This is a powerful day to set our intentions and put our hopes and dreams into motion. A sextile from the Moon to Saturn helps to sharpen the focus.

Tomorrow morning Sun moves into position to square Saturn (culminating at around 3 pm on June 5) and our responsibilities may seem overwhelming.  Meanwhile Mercury (thoughts and communication) is moving towards a challenging aspect to the triple conjunction of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune and the Moon translates this throughout the afternoon.  Don’t be alarmed if your emotions are on a roller coaster – there is a cleansing process here that is helpful to you in the long run. The Moon is in Scorpio now where we feel things much more deeply anyway.  Just ride the ups and downs and listen to what your soul has to tell you.  

By early Saturday morning the Moon will have moved into Sagittarius which will lighten up the energy of the heart significantly.
