All those big red signs are Jupiter square Chiron in Cancer and Aries. They point to pain or woundedness being an obstacle to relating and seeing eye to eye. Jupiter under stress struggles to size up situations. A problem may be a bigger or smaller deal than it seems. So take your time with estimates. Take care of your physical body too, as stressful astrology can be stressful on the physical as well.
New Moon at 28° Libra
The first thing I notice is the New Moon sandwiched between Venus in home sign Libra and Venus’ counterpart Mars in home sign Scorpio. These are social planets, worldly, material, and sexual too. There is energy and chemistry in this Lunar cycle because someone is standing up to say what they want. Mercury + Mars. I see strength and connection in this New Moon. I see recalibration and rebalancing.
The New Moon at the end of Libra may focus this Lunar cycle on projects, ideas, jobs, relationships, etc that are near or in a process of ending. As the New Moon aligns in an inconjunct with Saturn, there may be some sticky points, unknown factors or details that it takes a while to sort out. There could be confusion around a legal process or educational path.
Because the New Moon squares Jupiter and opposes Chiron, there may be confusion or assumption where it concerns the boundaries. How far is too far, how much is too much. Someone could express a belief that hurts your sense of self. Your beliefs about yourself may need care and tending. Jupiter focuses the magnifying glass on Chiron in Aries– inviting an examination of wounds to our sense of self and questions about core identity that may be an obstacle to genuine and heartfelt relationships and connections.
Jupiter also focuses that magnifier on Saturn in Pisces– the magic is in the effort you’re making and the projects you’re building now. The wind is in your sails, especially if you have placements in water signs in your chart. (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces).
Mars will form an inconjunct to Chiron– read below for the 🚩🚩 heads-up that affects Friday and the weekend, into Monday. I’ll be back with more thoughts then.

🧣🧣🧣 Jupiter square Chiron
Life could feel like too much. Too much emotion, too much pain. But this can be an opportunity to grow in knowledge and wisdom if you’re willing to work on yourself.
Jupiter under stress interferes with our sense of proportion, so that matters may be of more importance or less than you’re thinking. You might underestimate the time and work a job will take, or overcommit yourself by saying yes when you mean no.
You might experience difficulties integrating and updating older systems with new ones.

Keep your plans loose and leave time to adjust to a system glitch or change in the routine. Your guts are especially sensitive to upset emotions as this transit impacts both brain and gut. Herbs, meditations, and remedies to calm the enteric nervous system will be especially helpful.
