The Lunar Eclipse in Taurus has come and gone. You still have your head on, right?
I would love to see "the collective" shift gears and no longer see these events to portend doom. You may very well be looking at a positive thing, interpreting it as negative. How messed up is that?
Mars in Scorpio is squaring Saturn in Aquarius - there are planets in their home signs. Uranus in Taurus aspects both. This spells, b-r-e-a-k-t-h-r-o-u-g-h in my world. If you push for this right now, you're likely to succeed. Exit your oppressive paradigm!
Now's the time because next week the sun and Mercury will ingress into Sagittarius. This will open doors. I would be nice to be able to scamper through them, unencumbered.
