The kiss of the day follows when Luna trines powerful and healing Pluto at 1:35 pm. But the Moon then turns Void of Course until tomorrow morning. Notable, the Sun enters passionate Scorpio at 9:51 pm Friday evening for a thirty day run — a very good time to clean up messes in your life and to reach for all kinds of healing and healthful practices.

Don’t press your luck. Caution lights are up today.

Caution lights. Dangerous Pluto is on stage today and tomorrow. And we have a Full Moon in aggressive Aries, exact at 7:57 am PDT, adding emotional fuel to attitudes and actions around your home and office.

Luna sails out into calm waters until she makes a helpful sextile to dependable Saturn at 4:15 pm. The kiss of the day follows when eager Mars makes a trine to upbeat Jupiter at 7:36 pm.
