Daily aspects
extile Venus (Pisces)
This extile is perfect for love, relationships and marriage. It is a lovely time to host at your house, and invite friends and family over to eat beautiful meals you have created. Your social life is great and you should go out and try meet new people. You will definitely smile more! It is the opportune time for blind dates! It is also a wonderful time to buy new objects to decorate your home with.
Under this aspect, you are restless and impatient, hardly dealing with things for a long time. You're rash with your judgments, and impatiently interrupt others. You always think you're right, and can't bear rejection by those close to you. You also tend to overwork. Your mind works fine, but you often jump to decisions too quickly, making mistake after mistake. You don't want to deal with "unimportant things," overlooking important matters. You should slow down a bit.
Fun and entertainment are the order of the day at Aquarius Moon. The relationship with friends, fraternity, and social issues touch us deeply. Now it is the best time to do something crazy together, but also to get involved in social causes.
This Square could easily make you excited, argumentative, and hasty. Disagreements with the opposite sex may occur. You could waste money, repress your emotions, and feel moody and passionate. If you are female and menstruating, there may be a lot of bleeding, and you may experience a lot of pain, and tender breasts.
During this transit, there could be delays in communication. Travel isn't supported right now. You may get lost in unfamiliar territory. You may not be able to focus well, mentally, and thoughts could create emotional upset. You may fight with siblings or neighbors, and you need to be careful when texting messages, as you may send them to the wrong people.
extile Saturn (Aquarius) This aspect allows your relationship to deepen and become more committed. It is even a good time for a marriage proposal and wedding. You may even fall in love with someone through work. You can now ask for business favors from those who hold power over you.
