Cancer Venus perfects its conjunction to Jupiter Tuesday afternoon, then it goes on to square Aries Chiron through the rest of the week. There’s increased appetite, heightened desire, just more goodies to crave in general; and it’s not just what we like and want — but what we need. Big satisfaction of desire is the goal. Satisfaction.

When you take in more than you need, what happens? Your tummy hurts. Wanting more, taking in more delights and pleasures, it can’t go on forever. At some point we digest, we rest. Lean in to inflating your level of satisfaction and watch for and curry the sensation of fullness.

Cancer Mercury squares Aries Saturn through Tuesday night. How do you personally react to the idea of restraint and restriction on a gut level? That’s something to keep in mind when the collective narrative is teasing austerity warnings. Who’s in control of your mind, your attitude, and your reactions? If it’s you, then you’re right where you need to be.

There’s a big, satisfying bowl of something you love on deck. The winning strategy is knowing what’s enough, when’s enough. We want to win big enough to satisfy and fill out every corner of our appetite. Just say WHEN, and enjoy what’s enough FOR YOU. If there’s still a feeling of lack or an inability to hit the brakes, consider what part of your emotional reaction might be in your head. And if it’s not in your head, what can you personally do to gain traction in satisfying that need?

Monday’s Pisces Moon squares the Gemini Sun then goes on to trine Venus and Jupiter. Right out of the gate, there’s a temptation to get caught up in losing the plot. Already the Venus-Jupiter influence is building, so slow your roll and lean into the avenue that brings flow. Avoid distractions that amplify emotional outbursts or self pity. Then invest in increased flow toward pleasure and satisfaction.

On Tuesday, the Mars-ruled Aries Moon sextiles Gemini Uranus, conjoins Neptune, then sextiles retro Aquarius Pluto. Monday’s for staying out of your own way; Tuesday says take the reins and ride toward glory. The Aries Moon then rides over Vesta, Pallas Athena, and Saturn and squares Cancer Mercury, as Mercury heads into exact square with Aries Saturn. So the mood rides hard… till you see (or feel) the signs to STOP. Pay attention to your metaphorical and literal gut.

Wednesday the Aries Moon sextiles the Sun then goes on to square Jupiter and Venus. Pick back up with the plot. After the Venus-Jupiter exact conjunction, we’ve got more options going forward. Just know when to say when. If you don’t feel satisfied, consider taking action that reminds you of what you DO have, rather than standing in the empty space of what you feel you lack. Cancer Venus squaring Aries Chiron also brings lessons around refining a feeling of lack by looking at what you’re doing to combat it. Sometimes it just is what it is, and we soldier on. And sometimes it’s just a feeling we need to adjust.

Early Thursday, the final degree Aries Moon conjoins Chiron. The Moon then moves to Taurus and goes on to square retro Pluto then Juno in Aquarius. A mood for action seeks mastery. Mastery is a process and not a perfection. The key to avoiding frustration is to lean out from competition and lean in to collective empowerment. The less you take personally, the better. If you have to use your own means to fill in public cracks, remember you’re fortifying the all that you’re a part of.

On Friday, the Taurus Moon sextiles Cancer Mercury. Look for signs of relief, and find a reason for pleasurable stability. Think better to feel better, then you’ll find even more evidence for delight. It’s self feeding. By the end of the day, the Moon sextiles Jupiter and the shade of our Venus-Jupiter kiss soothes and delights. The mood inflates and lifts. It thrills.
