The time between two eclipses is always called the eclipse corridor. This week is that central week where there are no eclipses, but we're headed towards the 2nd one. It's an intense feeling we're moving through this week as the Sun finishes it's month long stay in home sign of Leo and connects with the South Node of Destiny at week's end. Simultaneously, Venus will oppose Saturn and we'd do best in sitting with any feelings of lack or need of gratification. Early in the week, Mars will challenge Neptune, asking us to listen to our gut before we act. And Venus will speak sweetly to Jupiter, opening our hearts.

Meanwhile, Mercury has also entered Leo and will join the Moon making the rounds of touching the outer planets right before the eclipse. Mars enters Cancer, where it enhances our desire to nurture our loved ones and protect them at all costs. And Venus in her own sign of Libra challenges dreamy Neptune in a duality that could bring romance or illusion. All this and so much more on The Golden Astrologer Podcast!

This week marks the beginning of a much larger cosmic story as Venus enters her home sign of Libra, opening the first chapter of a journey that will unfold throughout the rest of the year. As the Goddess of Love, Beauty, Relationships, and Values returns to her own sign, she begins preparing for her upcoming retrograde between Libra and Scorpio this October—a profound period of reflection, realignment, and transformation that will include three powerful encounters with Pluto. The seeds we plant now may reveal their deeper meaning in the months ahead. Meanwhile, Chiron, newly settled in Taurus, begins its retrograde journey, inviting us to revisit the healing work that has unfolded since its arrival in this earthy sign. As Chiron gradually retraces its steps back toward Aries, we are given an opportunity to integrate old lessons with new wisdom, discovering how our deepest wounds can become our greatest source of strength and compassion.
