What's in Store by the Stars:

June 19, 2013

The Moon leaves Libra and enters Scorpio early today. The Sun conjuncts Jupiter in the sign of Gemini midday. Vitality increases as we build our confidence. We feel more generous, optimistic, and sociable under this influence. We might hunger for increased recognition and respect, and, with our generous attitude and concern for others' well-being, we may very well get what we want. This is a good time to take steps to grow something significant. Venus in hard aspect to Neptune this afternoon, however, and we may have a difficult time seeing others clearly. This evening, Mars square Chiron can introduce some doubt into our lives as we have a difficult time "owning" our desires or anger.
