ISLAND ASTROLOGER: WHAT DO THE STARS HAVE IN STORE?

This week, the sun is encroaching on the conversation that Jupiter and Uranus are having. Jupiter and Uranus are in the same place in the sky, sparking big upheavals and joyful revolutions. The sun, in all of its bright glory, is moving in on these two, both shining a light on them and washing them out. It’s a great time for imagining your ideal version of a happy, free life even though the practical steps to get there may be elusive. Consider the changes that need to be made, let them percolate and distill. Actions will be coming down the road. Another dance taking place in the sky is the tango of Mercury and the asteroid Chiron, which embodies the archetype of the wounded healer, representing our vulnerabilities and capacity for integration. Whenever Mercury is involved, it is time to be thinking and talking. There’s a high capacity for self-victimizing and defeatist thinking right now, but there is an equal possibility for thoughts that can empower and cure. Wounding and healing are two sides of one coin, and you get to choose where your mind and words take you. 

Here are your horoscopes for the sun-Uranus-Jupiter conjunction and the Mercury-Chiron conjunction. Read for your rising and sun signs.
