We are now approaching one of the years most intense periods of planetary alignments. Inevitably this will lead to a roller coaster of emotions with strong and powerful feelings mixed with those of an altogether more delicate and sensitive nature.

As on other such occasions it is difficult to arrive at a firm prediction of how moods will unfold, but certain to say that the next ten days or so will see a colourful, challenging, and highly varied mood atmosphere. This will bring advantages as well as disadvantages with widely contrasting emotions.

Currently we are at the peak of the Sun/Saturn alignment, as well as the peak of the Mars/Venus conjunction. In addition we are heading towards the peak of the Uranus/Jupiter alignment. In terms of moods this means a bring together of limited, restricted and conservative feelings with strong doubts and misgivings, that are combined with passionate, exuberant, intimate, and volatile feelings in various intermeshing combinations.

Some of these will be subtle and others stronger, and the truth is that personal circumstances will likely dictate how these emotions apply to each individual. Existing feelings will all be heightened, and although there may be some pessimism and lack of confidence there will also be the ability to think outside the box, with new and innovative ideas that offer the prospect of fresh horizons of personal experience and discovery.

Coming days will see entry into the so called ‘doldrum period’ which habitually brings a period of lowered mood intensity but which on this occasion will be significantly influenced by the above mentioned factors. For those susceptible to sensitive mood atmospheres the next week may prove challenging but despite this will open the door to life changing realisations that will set the seal of future benefits and a better outlook.
