Birthday
Otto Hahn
Otto Hahn was an outstanding German chemist and pioneer of radiochemistry who made many important scientific discoveries during his life. He was born 8 March 1879 in Frankfurt am Main and grew up in a middle-class family. Hahn studied chemistry and obtained his doctorate in 1901. He worked as an assistant at various universities and research institutes before joining the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Chemistry in Berlin in 1906, where he later became director.
Hahn pioneered radiochemistry and made an essential contribution to research into the atomic structure. He discovered the element protactinium in 1909 and the element lutetium in 1917. His most important discovery, however, was that of nuclear fission. Together with his assistant Lise Meitner, he conducted experiments in 1938 that led to the discovery of atomic fission. This discovery is considered one of the most critical milestones in the history of physics and was a breakthrough in nuclear physics.
Otto Hahn was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear fission, but this was not announced until 1945, after the war's end. In his later years, he was a vehement critic of the military use of nuclear energy and advocated its peaceful use. He died in Göttingen on 28 July 1968.

Daily aspects
The Sagittarius moon makes us spirited and fiery. One is somewhat restless and inconsistent these days. The Sagittarius Moon is an excellent period to educate ourselves and deal with the highest things in life.
The Square between Mars and Saturn makes you prone to getting frustrated and aggressive at work, and in professional affairs. Your boss may give you a lot of work, and there could be power clashes in the office with those in authority. Be careful when handling knives in the kitchen, or tools of any kind. Your skin may flare up and rashes may occur. You could experience very dry skin, so keep moisturizer near by, and you can also break bones easily, so be cautious when exercising or moving around.
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.
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.
