Note - this is Day 18 of 25 of Mercury Retrograde. In case you missed it, Mercury turned Retrograde (Rx) on Monday, April 1st. You may want to click back and read the RED FONT ADDENDUM to catch some of the ideas I gave you for using Mercury Retrograde to your advantage.

Did you roll your eyeballs over the above listed aspects first thing today? Notice there is a quincunx sandwich today surrounding the Moon trine the Sun. Meaning, there is a quincunx aspect before and after the Moon trine the Sun.

WE LOVE the Moon trine the Sun because it is the best time to pay attention to your health, physical or mental. The Moon is emotional and the Sun is physical. It's the perfect marriage between the Moon and the Sun.

Keep in mind the quincunx's before and after the trine mean that the energy is weird and uncomfortable. "What do I do" type of energy. It can be a little too damned if I do and damned if I don't. At the same time, quincunx's require us to change or make an adjustment in order to handle the quincunx. So you have to do 'something'.

Again, this quincunx sandwich is surrounding health, growth and development. If you are stuck between a rock and a hard place, then choose the 'right' thing. **See Astro Memes below.

On another note - we are two (2) days away from THE BIGGEST ASTROLOGICAL EVENT OF THE YEAR, which is the Jupiter - Uranus conjunction. The last time we experienced this conjunction was in Pisces back in 2010 to 2011. This conjunction shows up on the scene every 14 years. But the last time this conjunction showed up in the sign of Taurus was back in 1941.

We learn astrology through patterns. We aren't the same people we were back in 1941, but yet we are still fighting and pretty darn close to WW III if not already in it, like back in 1939 when WW II began, but it wasn't until 1941 when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and then of course the USA's response didn't come with the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki until 1945, which pretty much ended WW II. So that's what it took?

Keep in mind, Plutonium was isolated in 1941, which was a fuel preferable to Uranium for nuclear reactors. Talk about being on the brink of nuclear war today. Yep! Click the Astro Memes below to read more.

On another note - this coming June, July and August 2024, I will 'not' be writing ANY Natal Charts or Solar Returns. It is also quite possible that I may stop sometime in May 2024, I just don't know that date yet. I'm lining up my Life so that I can take this break in order to complete a different project, which will take all of three (3) months to accomplish.

I believe EVERYONE should have their Natal Chart, which is pretty is the fingerprint of your Life. It never changes. At least 'they' haven't found a way to jack with your fingerprint like 'they' have your DNA. (Insert massive dose of smartassiness.) Thank God, the Natal Chart also reveals where health issues will arise, so there's that. Anyway, the Natal Chart never changes and it is something you are always working through and working on.

The Solar Return is the report that reveals what your 'year' will look like from one birthdate to another. So if your birthday is today, then your Solar Return chart begins and it will last until your birthday next year. Now keep in mind the Universe does not speak our language as in - Monday, March 11, 2024. The Universe rolls by math and coordinates. So your birthday may have actually been yesterday or maybe it is tomorrow, when your birth 'date' is March 11th.

The Solar Return is when the Sun 'returns' to the same degree and minute it was when you were born. So that could be a day earlier or a day later, depending on your residence (location) today, which is likely different than where you were born.

Some people will choose to go on a vacation on their birthday to change their location for their Solar Return and the Astrologer will calculate that location, but I do not agree with that method. It's not the Truth. You can't fool or trick the Universe. The Truth is it's a vacation, and you will still have to return back home to your Life, to your mortgage, your bills, your relationships, your neighbors, your job and dot dot dot.

In the Solar Return, each house represents one month. There are 12 houses, there are 12 months.

I advise you to get your Solar Return 'at least' three (3) months before you birthday, simple because the planets could already be coming into the 'orb of influence' and you would be feeling the energy.

For instance, Venus moves into Pisces today impacting all birthdays from today until April 5, 2024. Those of you with birthdays between today and April 5th will already in this Venus in Pisces energy. You need to know this, especially since Venus rules both Love and money.

So there ya' go. So I will take a chart writing break during June, July and August 2024, and if I get to the place that I want to be earlier, then I will start that break even earlier, which would be sometime in May 2024.
