Each sign has 30 degrees. When a planet reaches the last degree of a sign, it's energy is about to shift.
Think of a planet as a light and a sign as a colored lens. When you view the planet through the lens it appears to take on its color. And when a planet changes signs it is as if we viewed it through, say a yellow lens rather than a pink lens.
But when a planet readies itself to change signs it marks a time to clean up the loose ends connected with the issues brought up by its transit there.
Today, Mars leaves calm, stolid Taurus for flighty Gemini. Mars deals with our desires and how we satisfy them. In Taurus, we approach things slowly, one step at-a-time. In Taurus, Mars concerns itself with security, financial and physical. It is aware of the pleasures of the physical world--the perfume of roses, the feel of silk on the skin...
Today's #amtarot card, the Six of Cups, evokes the feel of Taurus' solidity in the secure, fortress-like buildings that protect the children. And physicality also comes through in the flowers that are found in each cup.
The affection of the children is protected by the shelter that allow them to express themselves without fear of harm or ridicule from the rougher outside world.
But shortly Mars enters Gemini, an air sign, where the emphasis is on movement and communication. Whatever has been carefully nurtured in this protected environment will soon be subject to the rough and tumble of the free exchange of people and ideas.
Get ready.
