This week has several important events:

The Sun squares Pluto, Venus makes a retrograde station, AND there's a Full Moon.

The week starts with a square from the Sun to Pluto; this is a time when people will manipulate whatever they can because they can.

Is anyone pushing your jealousy buttons?
Are you forcing an issue and escalating a situation that you could resolve if you put your ability to think beneath the lines into finding a solution?

Venus makes a Retrograde station on Thursday, changing direction from our Earthly perspective.
What ways can we find work together and socialize so we can make money and enjoy our lives?

The Virgo Full Moon is on Friday;
this is time to balance the details with the dream.
What are you wrapping up in your life this Full Moon?

The weekend brings Mercury back to Uranus. Meetings may be fleeting, but the insights can be brilliant.
Are there any flashes of insight you are having now?

This seems to be very a friendly community and I'm so happy to see this great forum!
You seem to be very knowlegeable and helpful, Litha (:
You mention that you're a learning student, so I hope we can study along together and that you dont find any of my questions or observations silly!

Pluto is a planet that's always interested me and now it is squaring the Sun. If there is something in our lives that just has to go, this is the time it is likely to happen. Giving up worn out possessions, obsessions, and habits can create the space for new and better things to come; here's a chance to sweepingly let go of anything in your life that just doesn't work any longer, including behavior patterns. There could be major challenges to your lifestyle or routine; proving your effectiveness can be empowering.

I see that you've been following the Sun?pluto square as well and was wondering if any of this was impacting your life now the way it is with mine?

hello and welcome!
interestingly, yes, I have been going through some changes, mostly related to a job promotion which in
and of itself alone has a Sun/ Pluto flavor.

[Selenia]

same here, other people promoted, me too!

[Litha]

kewl! congrats!
curiously, can you tell me what your sun sign and the sun sign of your friend(s) that have been promoted?
I'm a Cap (:

[Selenia]

!!!!!!!!!
I am a Cap and so is my girlfriend!!!
whoa!

I guess the things we had to let go of were our old jobs!

I think these career boasts might be due to the Dec 25th Cancer eclipse and the january 9th Cap eclipse.
