This week, a potent Scorpio Last Quarter Moon; Venus leaves Aquarius for the exalted air of Pisces; Saturn returns to energetic, if domineering, Aries; the Sun and Uranus agree that change is in order, but squabble over the particulars. And a listener question about upcoming eclipses that repeat an earlier and difficult one at the same point in your chart. Plus: intimacy and honesty, history rhymes, and remember who you really are.
