Overview
As Jupiter transcends the conjunction with Uranus, an impasse is breached. The pieces are still falling, but there may be more order in the end, as Jupiter leaves the aura of Uranus. Mercury turns to direct motion, yet in the shadow of the retrograde transit. This is another indication of repair work needed. The Moon in a trine aspect to the Sun late on Sunday, Monday morning in the eastern hemisphere, in earth signs, brings an increased flow of goods, and an increased production provides gain to the economy and personal incomes as well.
