The Sun in Leo trine Saturn in Aries is the most interesting thing on the board today, and it's already separating — so if you noticed a decision falling into place yesterday or the day before, that was probably it. What makes this aspect worth lingering on is the reception: Saturn is in its fall in Aries, weakened and irritable, but the Sun in its own sign is exalting Saturn. Authority is extending a hand to a struggling planet. It reads less like triumph and more like a competent superior covering for someone in over their head. The Sun can afford the gesture.

Venus, meanwhile, has just entered Libra — at home, self-possessed — and immediately walks into an opposition with Neptune in Aries. Applying, four-day window. This is the aspect I'd actually watch. A Venus in her own domicile doesn't lose her footing easily, but Neptune opposing from the fall-sign of the Sun tends to fog whatever Venus is trying to see clearly: an aesthetic judgment, a person, a price. I want to say "don't sign anything" and that would be too pat. Venus in Libra will sign things anyway and often correctly. Just notice what you're being asked to trust.

Mars in late Gemini is separating from an opposition to Lilith and applying to a trine with the North Node — a fast Mars, hurrying toward something. The opposition to Lilith with Mars near the end of a sign has a slightly reckless quality that the nodal trine only partly redeems.

The Moon ingressed Gemini this morning and sits in the Net mansion, in mutual reception with Mercury in Cancer — a light, exchangeable, information-porous day underneath the heavier Venus-Neptune weather.

Jupiter combust in Leo I'd normally comment on, but next to Regulus on the South Node, Jupiter is the smaller problem.
