Regardless of when the total solar eclipse is at its peak or where in the world you are, until the Moon leaves your romantic sector tomorrow, its effect has begun and will continue until long after it leaves. This is a supercharged version of the New Moon that will always fall at some point during the Sun’s month long visit, with a combination of the lunar nodes and Jupiter’s influence turning this into something a lot more special.

Before the Moon returns to your romantic sector tomorrow and for its first visit since Venus, the planet of love left last week, there is a chance to focus on Mars’ first full day in your communication sector and on his new seven week war on communication roadblocks and barriers. This will still be underway when Venus returns next month to begin her longest visit to your relationship sector in eight years. This is giving Mars plenty of time and especially as the Moon only left your communication sector yesterday and Mercury, the planet of communication the day before.

Even Venus, the planet of love will be happy to stand aside and let an eclipsing New Moon in your communication sector take precedence over her first full week in your romantic sector. Partly because Venus knows that slowing ahead of a retrograde turn later in the year she has time, but partly because with no planets in your relationship sector, this is a real opportunity to get the communication lines open.

Two days after Mercury, the planet of communication left Cancer and with the Moon returning to your communication sector tomorrow for its first visit since Venus, the planet of love left last week, you are more than ready for when the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment retrogrades back into your relationship sector today. Having spent months getting the communication lines open and with more support on the way, you are ready for the doors this will open to the past.

Having returned to your relationship sector at the end of March, the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment leaves today. However, not by moving forward but by retrograding back out. With this comes the promise that she will not only return in October but, as she says goodbye to Venus, in the heart of her first full week in your communication sector, with the promise that they will meet up again.

Having left at the end of March the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment retrogrades back into your romantic sector today for a do over. It is while she is back here that she will turn direct, something that will see her leave again but not until October. Until then, with half of her time back here spent in retrograde motion and the other half going back over the same ground for the third time, this is opening the doors to the past and second chances.

It is right in the heart of Venus, the planet of love’s first full week in Libra that the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment retrogrades back out of your romantic sector. They will not only meet up again later in the year, but there are planets staying on while the Moon’s friendly aspect to two of the three planets in your relationship sector is getting a mission to update your romantic and relationship desires, hopes and aspirations for the coming year off to an empowered start.

In the heart of Venus, the planet of love’s first full week in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart and of Chiron, the planet of healing’s first in retrograde motion in your relationship sector Juno, the queen of commitment retrogrades back into your communication sector today. While Juno had begun the year here and returns with a chance to give the past and unsaid words a voice, just as the doors have opened to the past on the relationship front as well.

A day after Mars left your relationship sector, the dwarf planet Ceres has reached her last full day here. It is Ceres’ last deep dive into your relationship needs and priorities for another four years that has given you a better sense of where to channel Mars’ passions and call to action and now, as Ceres gets ready to leave tomorrow, with a chance to embrace the journey ahead with confidence.

Thanks to the Moon’s departure yesterday, as Mars settles into his first full day in your relationship sector and as you prepare for the dwarf planet Ceres’ return tomorrow, you are not only emotionally engaged and aware, but with a chance to have the communication lines open from the start. The Moon returned just as after over two months Mercury, the planet of communication was getting ready to leave and in time to capture his influence as well.

A day after Mars left your romantic sector, the dwarf planet Ceres has reached her last full day here. While it is an eclipsing New Moon and its friendly aspect to the three planets in your communication sector that is putting a lot of focus on your relationships today, where there are a lot of new doors opening, until she leaves tomorrow Ceres will continue her deep dive into your heart’s needs and priorities.

Thanks to the romantically charged lunar vibes of the last few days and the over two months Mercury has just spent working to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page, as Mars settles into his first full day in your romantic sector in two years, he already has a head start. By the time the dwarf planet Ceres returns tomorrow to begin her first deep dive into your heart’s needs and priorities in four years, Mars will have your romantic passions and fighting spirit fired up and ready to go.
