Hopefully, any confusion and chaos emanating from this past Wednesday's Neptune station and shift from retrograde to direct are gone. Clear thinking and sensible behavior ought to be the hallmark of what's going on right now in the heavens as Mercury parallels Jupiter (8:42AM PST) - an alignment similar to a conjunction in the zodiac. When Mercury and Jupiter match up, business affairs and educational pursuits look more promising and favorable. Of course, excessive moodiness - arriving on the heels of the Moon being in watery Cancer - can set you back on your path toward worldly success. Another drawback can occur when Mercury makes an abrasive, 45-degree tie to taskmaster Saturn (6:17PM PST). On the other hand, you can tweak this linkage toward the good by learning key lessons from experienced pros in your main fields of endeavor. Utilize the Moon's presence in the fourth sign of the zodiac to prepare a feast for the gang that dazzles all the senses - particularly the taste buds. Literary and publishing interests wax in power and prestige tonight as the Sun parallels Jupiter (11:10PM PST). Parallel formations - calculated in reference to the Celestial Equatorial great circle around the Earth - are just as potent as zodiacal ones. And when the two largest celestial bodies merge as the Sun and Jupiter do tonight - amazing inspirations can manifest. Make sure you take advantage of this wonderful hook-up in order to receive golden opportunities awaiting you.
