Daily aspects
This transit can cause a dreamy disposition, passive attitude, tendency to self-deception, imbalance, hypersensitivity, weakened instinctual life, and nervous disorders. You could also get lost in wishful thinking. Try not watch horror movies during this time, as it may disturb you, and could lead to vivid nightmares.
During this transit, it is important not to invest in the stock market, as you may not get a good return on your investment. If you are in charge of others at work or school, you will be overbearing and very strict. On the other hand, you will be extremely subservient to those who hold power over you. It is not a good time to ask for a promotion at work, and it's better to just go with the flow, and not stick out too much. You won't have much self confidence, and it's not the ideal time for romantic encounters.
This conjunction can cause limitations, depression, melancholy, and discomfort. You could be dissatisfied, introverted, stubborn, and insincere. Inhibitions in your love life could occur, and you could have bad luck with your partner. Alienation or separation from your wife or mother could occur. You could feel lonely and deserted if you live on your own.
This aspect can lead to family problems, health disorders, difficulties at work, discomfort with the opposite sex, and public disagreements. It is highly important to think before you act or react. It can also cause pain in the womb, especially during "that time of the month" for young ladies and women.
