One of the problems with a square is that it&#8217;s like two planets arguing with no chance of a tie-breaker. Any time a third planet positively aspects one of the squaring planets, it does little or nothing for the other planet in the square.<strong> Looking to the planets to break an impasse like that requires a fourth planet, and this month we have that, with one to spare.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Sun and Moon conjunction in Aquarius is closely sextile the Uranus side of the Uranus-Pluto square.<\/strong> What this means that the Battle Of The Square is now tipped in favor of Uranus (liberty, individuality, and doing your own thing). Meanwhile, Pluto (absolutes, control, and fear) is softened by a conjunction with Venus and an opposition from Jupiter.<\/p>\n<p>So: have you felt for a couple of years like like circumstances have held you back? Have you struggled against forces, either external or internal, that have oppressed you? Has it felt like an entire Galactic Empire has been against you? <strong>Thursday is the day to act.<\/strong> Make a plan. Heck, you don&#8217;t need much of one, even&#8230; just the willingness to say &#8220;I want this to change, and I&#8217;m going to do what it takes&#8221; and you can get results.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it may involve something really crazy, like addressing how you&#8217;ve been an unwitting accomplice to the things holding you back, or facing up to things about your loved ones you don&#8217;t want to admit to yourself, or maybe&#8230; who knows? Sending in a one-man fighter up against a gigantic battle station? The truth is: most of the seemingly big problems in life can be solved with the right action at the right time, and<strong> most of Life&#8217;s Big Issues have a small thermal exhaust port, right below the main port, with a shaft that leads directly to the reactor system.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Okay, I&#8217;ll stop it with the geeky stuff now. My point here is that you&#8217;ve got to make your move this month. And it begins Thursday by setting the intention. Then trust your instincts.<em> Use the Force, already, jeez!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Now, some specifics:<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you were born September 1940-April 1941:<\/strong> Now is the time to take charge of your circumstances. Be firm in who you are and what you believe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you were born February-July 1952:<\/strong> The tensions are reaching their peak. Be brave and brace yourself for the Final Challenge. Save your resources and take a structured approach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you were born January-June 1977:<\/strong> Unique opportunities are coming your way, provided you are not afraid to take the leap.
