Venus enters "True-&-Steadfast" Capricorn today, and will remain there thru March 5th. This 4 month transit is longer than usual, so there will be a lot of emphasis on money and security. Your love-life will take on a serious tone. A partner that represents security, both financially and on an emotional level will be appealing during this transit. Frivolous encounters and superficial people may be dropped out of your life. Mars is in "Practical" Virgo placing both Mars and Venus in "Earth" signs. Your tastes about everything from decor in your house to friendships and a romantic partner will be more discriminating. Taking new approaches to your financial portfolio, as well as, work, building a solid career or going back to school may be on the agenda. Your values may be more traditional and less flamboyant. The serious tone delivered by Mars and Venus in earth signs, along with the Sun, Mercury and Saturn currently in the sign of "Depth-Probing" Scorpio, can bring about powerful & enduring transformations. People who interfere or hinder with your life ambitions may be cut out of your life altogether. You may be more resourceful than usual.
Jupiter, now in "Nurturing" Cancer places our efforts on the domestic scene. Taking care of the sick, having a baby, or buying a home may be on the vision board. Expansion of thy self, spirituality, artistic expression, career, and higher education or vocational training come to the forefront. An emphasis on family, trustworthy & reliable friends and situations that have the potential for longevity will be attractive at the soul level.
