Just a quick reminder about the planetary patterns of today:  Moon is VOID of course in Cancer, an extremely sensitive placement (read: hurt-prone). Venus is opposed by ruthless Pluto and squared by disruptive, rebel Uranus. Translation: there is potential today for provocations and emotional outbursts of a most explosive kind.

Seek instead to be a source of peace, light and calm to those around you. Think about how you can make someone feel emotionally secure. And roll with whatever delays and detours the day deals out — especially if you’re on campus at Princeton University.

If all else fails, here is a cool video to occupy your time today. Astronauts(Uranus) reflecting on what it’s like to see Planet Earth — our home (Moon/Venus/Mercury in Cancer) — from outer space. You’ll love its deep perspective (Pluto). Tomorrow I’ll post more on the New Moon and the horoscope of Edward Snowden, which is fascinating, as you might imagine…
