The remarkable emphasis on cusp influences that we have seen over the past few weeks culminates on Thursday with a Gemini-Sagittarius Full Moon (9:39 PM PST 0° Gemini/Sagittarius) on the Taurus-Gemini cusp. We are challenged to build bridges of understanding and make connections between widely differing perspectives. As the Sun moves across the Scorpio-Sagittarius cusp, we feel heightened urgency to open up about all of our Big Ideas but words don't seem to fully convey what we're trying to describe.

The Sun's entrance into Scorpio and subsequent inferior conjunction with the retrograding Venus signals a shift in relationship dynamics and our overall value systems. This is a week to expect the unexpected. Surprising twists could leave us completely at a loss if we don't [...]
