A day after the Sun left your romantic sector, something that at this time each year will always take the solar spotlight off matters of the heart, Mercury has reached his last full day. While this is far from the end of all planetary activity on the romantic front and the best is still to come, there is a sense of urgency when it comes to Mercury’s mission to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page.

Having the Moon in an adventurous part of your chart as the Sun settles into his first full day here isn’t the only advantage. The Moon is only passing through but the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment has returned for a do over and will be here throughout the Sun’s month long stay, with a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia in the air today here to stay.

A day after first the Moon left your relationship sector and then a few hours later the Sun left your communication sector Mercury, the planet of communication is filling in for both. In his last full day in your communication sector and after the Moon left you emotionally engaged and aware, today is all about having the communication lines open.

Having the Moon in your relationship sector during the Sun’s first full day in your communication sector is a mixed blessing that is a net positive. While the Moon’s clash with Mars in Cancer might push some buttons, this is a fleeting clash that could create some personal and/or relationship tension, but can jumpstart the communication lines while support between the communication and relationship gods is now locked in.

In between the Moon’s departure from your romantic sector yesterday and its return to your relationship sector tomorrow, it is all about holding onto the spirit of romance while having the communication lines open. An important point in any month for holding onto the spirit of romance comes just as in his last full day in Leo and with some important days coming up on the relationship front, as the planet of communication, Mercury is doing what he can to get the communication lines open.

While the Moon is only passing through and having it in your romantic sector during the first full day of your birthday month and new solar year is getting things off to a romantically charged start, the spirit of romance itself is here to stay. It was 12 days ago that the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment retrograded back into your romantic sector for a do over and she will be here throughout your birthday month, with the resolve to make matters of the heart a priority.

Whether it was the Moon’s departure from your communication sector yesterday or its return to your romantic sector tomorrow, both are and will be critical to Venus, the planet of love’s five week transit through Libra. Having already clashed with planets in your relationship sector, having the Moon in your communication sector has helped to get the communication lines open, while coming up are some of the most romantically charged days of Venus’ time here.

While both the Moon, who is passing through your communication sector and the Sun, in his first full day in your friendship sector, are separating from a friendly aspect to Chiron, the planet of healing, in retrograde motion in your relationship sector yesterday, this has started something that is here to stay. With Juno, the queen of commitment having retrograded back into your communication sector 12 days ago, things have come together on the communication, social and relationship fronts in a way that is going to stick and could be healing.

As well as leaving you more emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware, the contacts the Moon made to planets on the romantic and relationship fronts as it moved through Sagittarius has also left you more aware of and connected with both. As well as leaving you more aware of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you, this was also a window into a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia that is here to stay.

At the same time that the Moon, making its monthly visit to Capricorn is separating from a friendly aspect to Chiron in your romantic sector and the Sun in an adventurous part of your chart yesterday, a clash with Mars in your relationship sector today is putting pressure on a balance between your own and your relationship needs. Both are equally important, for you are not only moving into some pivotal weeks on the relationship front, but for the spirit of romance and adventure.

A day after the Sun left your relationship sector, something that will always take the solar spotlight off your relationships at this time of year Mercury, the planet of communication, has reached his last full day. With Jupiter staying on and the lunar nodes having just started their 20 month policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs, today is all about having the communication lines open. Fortunately, there are three planets in your communication sector that are here for the long haul.

As the Sun settles into his first full day in your relationship sector and with the solar spotlight now on your relationships for the next month, he might be on his own, but not for long and with support from Chiron, the planet of healing in your communication sector from the start. Until Mercury returns tomorrow to do what as the planet of communication he does best, there is a chance to simply observe and be aware.
