Psychic storm warnings are posted early today due to the Sun making an off-kilter, 150-degree link to underworld-ruling Pluto (12:10AM PDT). Not only is almost any Sun-Pluto encounter a cause for concern, but this one happens while the Moon is still void in Sagittarius. By 12:30AM PDT, the lunar orb enters hardworking and persevering Capricorn for the next two days. Strive to put your best foot forward on the business and professional fronts. The Sun making a supportive, 60-degree rapport with Vesta (4:32AM PDT) can signify a huge help by increasing the value of your investments. While the monthly Moon-Pluto conjunction (1:05PM PDT) can be somewhat intimidating, you may be able to strike it rich due to Venus making an inspirational, 72-degree tie with Pallas (3:03PM PDT) less than one hour before Pallas itself makes a station at 12 degrees of Aries (3:32PM PDT) and begins a retrograde cycle in the zodiac lasting until November 20. All Pallas themes – mental brilliance, wisdom and knowledge, problem-solving, strategy sessions, scholarly research, seeing invisible patterns, weaving, chess masters, engineering, city planning, video-game and computer programming, inventions, DNA and the genetic code – are accentuated today and tomorrow. Adding to the excitement of today’s halt and reversal by Pallas is a stimulating and insightful trine of 120-degrees by the Sun and Uranus in fire signs (10:23PM PDT). Breakthroughs in higher consciousness abound.

Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, July 19

Problems may arise today from your natural tendency to initiate action too quickly. You really want to make something special happen now, but are uncertain about how to move forward with the Cancer New Moon in your 4th House of Security. If your intuition suggests that it’s not yet time to start anything, you are better off waiting. There’s no reason to overcompensate by needlessly pushing your agenda too soon.

You might end up spending much of the day sticking close to familiar routines, without much of a desire to do more than is necessary. It’s a quiet day, yet you have many things you want to say now that the Cancer New Moon occurs in your 3rd House of Communication. Speaking your piece is healthy, but listening to others is important, too. Your friends and co-workers will feel better if there is an equal give and take in their interactions with you.

You could use a healthy dose of peace and quiet now. Although there are social activities on your calendar, you also are advised to create some time to be alone. However, this isn’t about being isolated or lonely. Rather, it is about listening to your own inner voice, which can all too often get crowded out by the everyday noises of your life. Meditating leaves you feeling rejuvenated and ready to mingle with others again.

When you’re finished working today, head outside and catch some rays. Perhaps you could find time for some summer reading or listening to music. And even if you aren’t inclined to be in the Sun, at least make sure you utilize today’s New Moon in your sign to revitalize your soul. There’s no need to worry about accomplishing much now; just enjoy the experience of swimming around in the sea of your colorful inner world.

You have intense desires that are building just beneath the surface. Often you Lions are quite up-front and just tell it as it is, but today a more secretive mood comes over you because of the cautious Cancer New Moon that activates your 12th House of Spiritual Mystery. You don’t have to act on every emotion, but neither do you have to push away your feelings, even if they further complicate your life. It’s better to proactively deal with a complicated issue than it is to just stay quiet.

Getting together with your friends sounds like a good idea now that the Cancer New Moon falls in your 11th House of Companions. However, something may hold you back. Maybe you’re busier than you want to be today. Since you are protective of your feelings, remember not to spread yourself too thin. If you end up partaking in some social fun, at least make it a low-key event. Save your energy for when you need it.

Your ideal scenario today may consist of you crawling back into the privacy of your home and luxuriating in the idea that you don’t need to go anywhere or see anyone. But unfortunately, reality doesn’t let you off the hook so easily. You could be called upon to take responsibility for someone else and you must rise to the occasion. Nevertheless, you have invisible boundaries and still feel protected as if you are within your own shell, even if no one else notices.

Your intense feelings draw you into uncharted waters today as the Cancer New Moon emphasizes your 9th House of Adventure. There is a haunting familiarity to the landscape, whether or not you are eager for the next adventure. You can’t tell if you have been here before or if it was only a place that you imagined. Pay careful attention to all the details, for signs appear everywhere to reveal your future.

You may feel on-edge today with the Cancer New Moon in your 8th House of Intimacy, especially if you’re pulled into an emotional drama that is one step over the edge of your comfort zone. Short of booking a ticket on an airplane, there isn’t much that you can do to avoid the intensity. Forget about trying to escape; just sink into your feelings, armed with the knowledge that they will change soon enough. There’s no reason to be overly concerned; you will be back to your buoyant self before you know it.

You self-motivated Goats strive for stability now, even as you ambitiously climb higher on the mountain. But you don’t feel as sure-footed as you seem; nevertheless, emotional waters are swirling around your feet today. Thankfully, it’s perfectly safe to let your feet leave the ground. Swim through the mixed feelings, but don’t try to hold on to any of them along the way.

You can feel the shift as the Moon enters your 6th House of Routine, taking you away from the high-flying thoughts and drawing you into a pool of feelings about your daily life. Try as you might to separate out the strands of emotions, they are interwoven. You might feel as if this emotional fabric is so heavy that it’s a burden. However, you’re still advised to wear it as if it were your own. Paradoxically, accepting your obligations magically lightens your load.

Although the Cancer New Moon in your 5th House of Romance suggests that you might need to start anew with respect to love, you don’t necessarily have to walk away from a current healthy relationship. Instead, consciously infuse your passions into a partnership, adding depth and magic to what you already have. But if you aren’t in a relationship, you may be hesitant to jump into one now. Move slowly for the best results.

Thursday Is Ruled By Jupiter
Element: Air
Color: Blue, purple
Crystals: Azurite, lapis lazuli, sodalite, turquoise
Incense: Agrimony, cedar, sandalwood, sage
Trees: Birch, oak
Herbs: Borage, cinquefoil, coltsfoot, hyssop, mistletoe

Astrological rulership: Sagittarius (co-ruler of Pisces)
Thursday, the day of Jupiter is good for all forms of increase and expansion, be it in the realm of money, career, power or joy. Jupiter rules over fulfillment of objectives, most usually those that are socially orientated. He is also potent for leadership, conscious wisdom, creativity, extending one’s influence in the wider world, idealism, justice and the law, authority and altruism. Jupiter’s influence extends over marriage, permanent relations (business and person), fidelity, loyalty and male potency (in both the human and the animal kingdom). Jupiter can lead to excesses, such as greed and glutton, but can also paradoxically, be used for banishing these.
Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, July 12

You may get a bit lazy today because something tells you that everything is going to be OK. You know that worrying won’t help matters, even if some things are not quite right. The fact is that there aren’t any quick fixes to life’s current intriguing dilemmas, so let yourself off the hook for now. There is nothing you must do except be fully present in the moment. The rest will follow.

This is an opportune time to recharge your batteries now that the Moon is back in your sign. Even if you are busy fulfilling your commitments, find small pockets of time to do absolutely nothing at all. Giving yourself permission to contemplate life without the need to be productive is an excellent way to reconnect with what’s truly important.

Don’t let down your guard today or you could find yourself an unwitting participant in someone else’s drama. Sure, you may have a role to play in what’s going down, but it’s time to step back from the action or you’ll get pulled into something that’s bigger than what you bargained for. Instead of trying to directly affect the outcome, take a more spiritual approach to gain a better perspective on the big picture.

By now you have probably made a choice that will carry you well in to the future. Although your plans are in an early stage of development, you can still make adjustments to them. But, on some level, the deal is done. You’ve gone through a period of serious questioning and now it’s time to concentrate on putting your ideas into action, even if you don’t see results overnight.

You might find yourself in a situation where people seem to be relying on you more than you think is healthy. But don’t just brush everyone’s overtures aside. Instead, find the inner strength to express clearly what you can do while admitting what is beyond your reach. You don’t have to fend for anyone now but yourself, so your friends will appreciate your honesty more than your denial.

Applying your analytical skills to your future goals is a valuable exercise now. However, even if you’ve been thinking about a quick getaway or a longer vacation, don’t put off the planning since you have a rare combination of planetary help available today. Your imagination can conjure up an ideal adventure for you and someone special. However, it’s up to you to bring your dreams down to earth.

It seems as if the storm clouds are lifting, but your positive forecast may still be a few days out. Although the emotional skies aren’t totally clear yet, you’re already seeing the welcoming patches of blue amidst the turbulence. Be patient; don’t try to push the dark clouds away. They will continue to drift off on their own accord as you learn to appreciate the rains they bring. Remember, finding the silver lining in a cloud can be its own reward.

You feel a bit more upbeat today as you simplify your life and clarify your needs. Sometimes things seem way more complicated to you than they do to other people. Of course, others aren’t always as perceptive as you are and they do not understand what you see. Nevertheless, eliminating some of the outer noise allows you to get even better at hearing your own inner voice.

There’s plenty to do today, and it seems as if you are finally ready to attack your assigned tasks. It’s not that you have been lazy during the first half of this week; it’s just that there is a lot going on that continues to distract you from your normal routine. Nevertheless, it’s better to keep going through the motions, even if your heart isn’t into it now. Instead of looking to do things differently, concentrate for a while on crossing things off your list.

You can do nearly anything you put your mind toward today, since your pragmatic nature helps you create a concrete plan to accomplish your goals. Thankfully, your focus is strong and you are determined to do whatever must be done in order to meet your obligations. Although you may be tired and work-weary, if you think you can, then you can. Don’t wait for a better time; start now.

An emotional conflict today might not be as overwhelming as your recent experiences. In fact, you may not be too concerned at all because you can approach the entire situation in an objective manner, enabling you to rationalize your feelings. Keep in mind that an intellectual orientation allows you to hide your vulnerability, preventing others from getting too close to you. Show your courage by being honest and admitting that you don’t have all the answers.

Even though your feelings can still be quite strong today, your life seems a little calmer. Somehow, you seem to know that you’ll end up exactly where you need to be as long as you move with the tidal flow. However, going contrary to the currents will tire you out. Resistance is futile, so save your strength for when you need it most.
Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for June 22 – 24
Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope
by Jeff Jawer
No Holds Barred
June 22 – 24
This is a playful weekend when cutting loose and expressing yourself without inhibition can be a lot of fun. The good times start with the Moon shining in outgoing Leo, a dramatic sign that’s all about taking chances. Showing off shouldn’t be frowned upon because everyone deserves his or her moment in the spotlight. Going too far may occasionally be embarrassing, but heart connections come from releasing inhibitions and letting it all hang out.
The sign Leo is associated with the Sun, which aligns favorably with imaginative Neptune on Saturday. Romantic experiences that have no purpose other than mutual pleasure somehow make sense now. Set aside as many tasks as possible so that reality is left behind in the pursuit of a good time.
Sunday’s mood is a different story once the Moon shifts into analytical Virgo. The morning, though, may still be filled with hope and visions of brighter days ahead, yet a more sensitive tone is evident in the late afternoon and evening. The Moon’s stressful square with amorous Venus exposes vulnerabilities and feelings of uncertainty. A simple comment could be interpreted as a major criticism when that wasn’t the intention. Being kinder in what we say and gentler in our approach can reduce the likelihood of hurt feelings or wounded hearts.

Tuesday, June 19, 2012
Aries
(March 21 – April 19)
Today you will uncover astonishing proof that the dinosaurs died out due to a retrovirus contagion. Furthermore, you will find evidence of a government cover-up of research that indicates the same thing is likely to happen to humans. Don’t worry, though.
Taurus
(April 20 – May 20)
Beware of poltergeists, today.
Gemini
(May 21 – June 20)
Stop slouching, and sit up straight! How do you expect to get ahead in the world if you pay no attention to proper posture?
Cancer
(June 21 – July 22)
Today will be a great day for bargains. For example, you’ll find a really amazing price on a flame-thrower, at the Army surplus store. A flame-thrower is one of those rare things that really creates a lasting first impression — so you should definitely get it.
Leo
(July 23 – August 22)
You will hear screams coming from a Hungarian restaurant, while you are walking by. Don’t worry, though. That’s normal.
Virgo
(August 23 – September 22)
Soon you will start work on a mystery novel, “The Curse Of The Mummy’s Nose”, told from the point of view of your cat, Erik.
Libra
(September 23 – October 22)
Good time to go into business making measuring spoons. Good ones to start with would be a “smidgeon” and a “pinch.”
Scorpio
(October 23 – November 21)
You will have a visit from “The Scourge of Valderia.” He’s thin, small, balding, wears little round glasses, and dresses in a rumpled blue suit. Still you don’t want to cross him.
Sagittarius
(November 22 – December 21)
Following up on your accidental observation of the “sock dimension” (remember that sock you saw re-materializing a while back?), you will invent a machine to let you cross over the dimensional barrier. Sadly, you’ll be one dimension off, and will pop into the lost pen and pencil dimension, where you will be severely poked.
Capricorn
(December 22 – January 20)
Noticing a picture on a colleague’s desk, you will comment “I’ve never cared for those hairless cats”. That might not be a good thing to say. Newborns can be a bit blotchy, and new parents can be a bit touchy…
Aquarius
(January 21 – February 18)
Things haven’t been going well for you lately, and you’re sinking into a fairly ugly bit of self-pity. You merely need to count your blessings! (1) You’ve got a tremendous talent, which some day may be in demand, (2) You’re almost normal — LOTS of people have extra appendages, (3)…
Pisces
(February 19 – March 20)
You will finally come to understand what Mies Van der Rohe was talking about when he said “Less is more.” He was talking about his brother, Lester Van der Rohe, and was referring to a small weight-gain problem.

Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, June 10

You had your heart set on doing something fun with your friends today, but as the time draws near, you might feel like bailing on your plans and taking some quiet time to contemplate your future. However, the universe encourages you to be more socially active now. Whatever happens, don’t get caught up in someone else’s drama. You can still find peace of mind as long as you pay attention to your own feelings, even in the midst of a noisy party.

You may resist sharing your feelings because you don’t want your friends to think that you’re being negative. Maybe you’ve been waiting for the right moment to tell everyone what’s on your mind, yet it never seems like a good time. You might be annoyed today that you haven’t spoken your truth, and it is tempting to blame an outsider. Instead, take full responsibility for your emotions and express them without pointing your finger at anyone else. Others will appreciate your integrity once you’ve cleared the air.

You are extremely susceptible to whatever your friends and family tell you now. Although your desires can be quite different from other people’s expectations, you don’t want to create a scene over a petty disagreement. However, your frustration may turn to anger if you decide to do what someone else wants rather than following your own instincts. It’s certainly smarter to get your feelings out into the open than to let them stew in resentment. The sooner you share what’s in your heart, the better.

Your dreams are too big to keep hidden now and you might continue feeding them with your fantasies all day long. Unfortunately, your vision is too idealistic to integrate into your everyday life in a practical way. Nevertheless, your mental meanderings serve a definite purpose, encouraging you to explore all of the possibilities before you and all of the magic within. Allow your imagination to wander today; you never know where it will take you.

You seem to know exactly what to say and your words have a positive effect on others today. But even if you have a solid plan, you are likely to ignore it once a conversation starts. Stay in the present moment now rather than trying to follow a particular script. Step boldly into unknown territory, but beware that you probably won’t end up where you expected.

It’s challenging to concentrate on the details in order to make certain that what you’re working on today doesn’t fall apart. But you might be trying to exert too much control over things that just don’t matter in the long run. Instead of wasting time attempting to control external events, you’re free to focus your attention anywhere you want. Establishing sensible priorities now enables you to make progress more than anything else.

Your overly dramatic attempts to convince your friends how efficient you are might backfire if you try too hard today. You are more likely to make an error in judgment now if you act under pressure. Adopt a more laid-back approach so you don’t appear desperate. Give yourself more time to finish your work and don’t worry so much about what others think.

It’s nearly impossible to know how you will react if a close friend brings a complex problem to you today. You really want to be supportive, but might discover that your eagerness to help quickly turns into resentment. Process your frustrations before they manifest negative consequences. Trust your instincts; you are more brilliant now than you realize.

You may want a quiet day at home, away from your regular responsibilities. However, even if you attempt to schedule your weekend so that you have plenty of downtime, don’t be surprised if you end up taking on more than you planned. Compassion, rather than ambition, motivates you to help a family member, friend or even someone you don’t know. The more you give, the more you get.

Your sixth sense is highly active today and it can be startling at first if you suddenly realize something that you haven’t yet been told. Remember that your regular rational approach won’t work now because you may not be able to explain your current insights. Instead of putting up defenses because you feel uncomfortable, stay open to the waves of intuition flooding your awareness. Don’t question this magical process; instead, act on a hunch as if you believe it’s true.

You may be annoyed with someone who doubts the wisdom of your choices because it feels as if your core values are being questioned. Normally, you can stand up for yourself, but words seem to fail you now. The harder you try to make your point, the more flustered you are today. Take a few steps backward so you can regroup and then state your case. Defend your decision and let your performance stand on its own merit.

You might be happier today if you don’t have too many prior commitments on your calendar. Naturally, you won’t be able to avoid certain responsibilities, but the less you have on your schedule now, the better. Just remember this isn’t about being lazy; it’s about staying attuned to your own internal clock rather than conforming to everyone else’s agendas.

Sunday, June 10, 2012
Aries
(March 21 – April 19)
Today you will realize that it’s impossible to truly “control” anything, even yourself, and that the best you can hope for is to have some “influence” over yourself and your surroundings. This will make you feel better, before the pink slip arrives.
Taurus
(April 20 – May 20)
You’ve heard that when economists use the word “nice”, they’re actually saying that something is homoscedastic and nonautoregressive. Today you will find out what they mean when they say something is “like, totally kewl.”
Gemini
(May 21 – June 20)
You will be tickled without mercy, today. Oddly, you will not be able to see your assailant.
Cancer
(June 21 – July 22)
You will try to alleviate the boredom you feel by making something creative with twine. Fortunately, it will work, but you’ll need a lot of twine.
Leo
(July 23 – August 22)
Good day to avoid pickled herring.
Virgo
(August 23 – September 22)
It was a simple mistake, which anyone could have made. What’s more, now you know better. I think, though, that the expression is too widespread for you to actually get it changed to “never look a gift horse in either end.”
Libra
(September 23 – October 22)
Someone who you really dislike, who is arrogance personified…will be nice to you. This is a good time to be afraid.
Scorpio
(October 23 – November 21)
What fun! You’ll be called in to a special meeting at work soon, where someone will have a “pink slip.” Sounds like party attire to me!
Sagittarius
(November 22 – December 21)
You will go into business making those little sugar packets that restaurants use, and make a fortune. The restaurants will have to use fewer of yours than anyone else’s. Is it due to the pictures on the packets, of really fat people? Who knows.
Capricorn
(December 22 – January 20)
You will walk into a door frame today, and people will smirk. Remember though, they’re smirking with you, not at you.
Aquarius
(January 21 – February 18)
You are about to have an unfortunate episode involving insects, grape Kool-Aide, and a revolving door.
Pisces
(February 19 – March 20)
Relationships are a lot like tables. One leg is love, one is trust, one is shared pleasures, and one is shared dreams. Lasting relationships need all four legs for balance, to hold up the burden of your troubles. In your case, though, you’ll never get rid of that irritating wobble.

Daily Chinese Horoscopes for June 5
Rabbit
Money makes the world go around, but right now it has your head spinning. Someone has made a weird investment or is suggesting a strange way of making a few quick bucks, but make sure that you check into the details before you throw any of your own coin down a bottomless well.
Dragon
If you want to overcome a feeling of rejection today, focus on your self, your image, your own personal needs. Don’t be afraid to be prudently selfish today. That is exactly what you need to do if you are to understand and heal yourself today.
Snake
You could stumble across an old childhood hurt that is buried in your subconscious today. If you find yourself acting oddly and you don’t know why, stop for a moment and ask yourself “What is this all really about?” The answer could be healing.
Horse
Arguments or disagreements with friends could be a good thing today. All the cards will be on the table, in full view, and the two of you can decide as mature adults whether the problems can be overcome, or whether or not it might be time to agree to part the ways.
Sheep
Don’t try to push yourself today. If you have a shot at a self-indulgent day off, take it and run. Trying to run about to get shores, shopping, or work done will only make you frustrated and anxious. Don’t feel guilty about taking a well-deserved break.
Monkey
You may find yourself exploring a new educational opportunity or challenge today. You will be drawn to paper, books, and online knowledge that can increase your sense of well being or self-esteem. Focus on the wilder, newer and more innovative ideas that catch your eye.
Rooster
If you are looking for investing opportunities, homes, real estate and home improvements are all good bets – but don’t go overboard with trendy decorations. You may find that those hot colours aren’t going to be in style too long. If you go shopping, look for bargains.
Dog
Your love life flip-flops from fabulous to frustrating, sometimes within a few moments passion turns to pressure. You are not communicating well, and you are not terribly realistic about your responsibilities and expectations in relationships.
Pig
If you work with a business partner, or have a friendly coworker you confide in regularly, pay them special attention today. They may be a little tense right now but they are going to have ideas that could make you both a lot more prosperous.
Rat
You may decide to take up some kind of structured sporting activity in order to get more exercise. This could be something of a challenge at first. Make sure that you stretch, get proper food and hydration, and check with your doctor before doing anything too intense.
Ox
Family members are both a source of joy and frustration right now. One is busy flipping wildly from one side of the “manic-depressive” spectrum to the other, while another is offering to help out and may even come bearing a gift of money, or news of a possible job offer.
Tiger
You seem to have a hard time putting your thoughts into words today. There are times when your head says one thing and your mouth seems to want to say something else. Take long breaks if you are working on any important presentation or paperwork today.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for June 4th
Stop, look and listen! Silence is golden in the early hours as the Partial Lunar Eclipse strikes first at 4:04AM PDT followed 9 minutes later by the Full Moon at 4:13AM PDT (activating 15 degrees of Gemini and Sagittarius). Individual and group meditations are encouraged during what some esoteric groups call the Festival of Humanity. Send out your inspiring thoughts and prayers to friends, colleagues, relatives and the kingdoms of nature. Worrying about your own personal needs is a no-no. Think more about your higher destiny in this lifetime and how you can be of greater service to the invisible host of teachers, angels and spirits that orchestrate the universe from their elevated perspectives. Giving your religious beliefs and philosophy of life extra support is Neptune becoming motionless at 4 degrees of Pisces (2:05PM PDT) as it gradually shifts into retrograde motion – a reversal direction that lasts until November 10. All Neptune themes – dreams and visions, psychic sensitivity, the creative imagination, spiritual longings, ideals, artistic genius, universal love-wisdom, fishing and sailing, water sports, illusions, fantasies, confusion and chaos, addictive behavior and being hooked on anyone and anything – are intensified. Adding to today’s carnival-like atmosphere is a Venus-Mars square from Gemini to Virgo (5:29PM PDT). Strive for serenity in affairs of the heart. Fortunately, Venus will also make an inspirational, 72-degree contact with Pallas (6:34PM PDT) – offering encouragement regarding problem-solving and strategy sessions. The Moon, still transiting, adventurous and playful Sagittarius goes retrograde during a Moon-Mercury opposition (10:09PM PDT). Complete odd jobs and old projects on a high note during the next 7-hour uncertainty zone until the Moon enters industrious, earthy Capricorn at 5:32AM PDT on Tuesday.
Daily Cosmic Calendar for Saturday, June 2nd
The two days before any Full Moon constitute a 48-hour time-period of preparation for the enlightening vibrations about to enter humanity and the Earth. We are now within that electro-magnetic aura since the upcoming Full Moon – with the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius – occurs early Monday June 4, followed by Neptune being virtually motionless as it shifts from direct to retrograde motion in Pisces. Therefore, this entire weekend has a spiritual, religious and philosophical high-vibration going on if you can tune into those rarified qualities of life. On the more practical and pragmatic levels of being, you can make headway with arts, crafts, hobbies and especially scientific-mathematical projects as Mercury makes an inspirational, 72-degree rapport with its higher-guardian planet Uranus (6:49AM PDT). Healing forces continue to show their strength (following last night’s Moon-Chiron trine) as Ceres makes an inspirational, 72-degree alliance with Chiron (1:01PM PDT). This Ceres-Chiron connection can also be utilized to alter your diet and enhance your nutritional needs. Your productivity quotient rises – as long as you don’t fall prey to the shadow side of lunar Scorpio (projecting anger on well-meaning friends, associates and family members). Strive to improve the quality of your primary partnerships tonight – courtesy of the monthly Moon-Juno union (11:36PM PDT). Mystery movies and who-done-it bestsellers can capture your imagination.

A Sagittarius Triplet
Image Credit & Copyright: Martin Pugh
Explanation: These three bright nebulae are often featured in telescopic tours of the constellation Sagittarius and the crowded starfields of the central Milky Way. In fact, 18th century cosmic tourist Charles Messier cataloged two of them; M8, the large nebula left of center, and colorful M20 on the right. The third, NGC 6559, is above M8, separated from the larger nebula by a dark dust lane. All three are stellar nurseries about five thousand light-years or so distant. The expansive M8, over a hundred light-years across, is also known as the Lagoon Nebula. M20’s popular moniker is the Trifid. Glowing hydrogen gas creates the dominant red color of the emission nebulae, with contrasting blue hues, most striking in the Trifid, due to dust reflected starlight. This broad skyscape also includes one of Messier’s open star clusters, M21, just above and right of the Trifid.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Monday, April 7th
While Sagittarius Moon usually stimulates goodwill, a happy-go-lucky disposition and the urge for adventure in the great outdoors, these dynamics are present and yet somewhat muted because of the approach of two, highly-charged, challenging sky patterns. Jupiter in Taurus and Uranus in Aries reach a provocative, 45-degree liaison (7:10PM PDT) while Mars makes a contentious, off-kilter 150-degree contact with radical-change agent Uranus (11:46PM PDT). Since these two aspects are far-and-away, the major alignments affecting everyone on Planet Earth today, the early hours may not seem so intense. However, as the hours unfold, unsettled affairs can become more iffy, pressure-filled and volatile. Therefore, it is advisable to keep a low profile across the board for this 24-hour time-period. Have fun in exploring literary and educational pursuits – via the lunar presence in upbeat, goal-oriented Sagittarius – but don’t push a personal agenda with such determination and ego-investment that you wind up alienating colleagues, friends and dear ones during the second half of the day, and especially during the evening hours. If at all possible, avoid everything associated with legal matters, key signings and long-range commitments. At the same time, be as sensitive and nurturing as you can with loved ones on the ropes who need your kindness and support.
Daily Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, May 6th
The day after a Full Moon can be rough because the vision or revelation of higher reality has now been delivered to earthlings – whether they know it or not. In the meantime, it’s as though the cosmos feels it has done its thing and now may be prepared to focus its attention on other species or planets. However, the 48-hour time-period beginning at this time ought to be a launching pad for spreading the good news that the light, love and wisdom of the universe are ready to work wonders in all of our lives. A particular challenge today is that the Moon in Scorpio appears to be shirking its responsibility by going void at 5:15AM PDT during a somewhat optimistic and illuminating Moon-Jupiter polarity. The lunar orb remains in this weakened void mode until 6:40PM PDT when Sagittarius Moon begins in earnest for the next two days. The lunar shift every month from Scorpio to Sagittarius is one of the most profound changes in the zodiac since there is a miniature death – followed by the need for regeneration, and rebirth of feelings, thoughts and ideals. Nevertheless, it is helpful to be finishing old projects and enterprises on a high note during today’s void limbo cycle. Under the auspices of Sagittarius Moon, let the fun, games and sporting events proceed! Insights about business matters and investment planning can be sharp as Vesta makes a supportive, 60-degree link to Neptune (9:31PM PDT). Strengthen love bonds and partnership ties later on – courtesy of the monthly Moon-Juno union (10:08PM PDT).
