The Moon is in Cancer until Tuesday, April 3, 2017 at 6:13 PM EDT. Roll your eyeballs 'up' and all of the little black rectangles will take you back to your Sun Sign's main landing page. Roll your eyeballs 'down' and you will see the Astro-Memes (important stuff) we are dealing with today.

On this website (drstandley.com) the Daily Horoscope is my interpretation of every aspect and transit occurring today. I only write one (1) Daily Horoscope, which is for all signs. It is only the Monthly, Yearly and Generational Horoscopes that are tailored to each Sun Sign.

Venus re-entered Pisces last night at 8:25 PM EDT. Here they come folks, not only are the ex's coming back to revisit (if they haven't already), but they may really be working the the self-pity and martyrdom routine saying they just want "closure". I have a cold hard Capricorn Moon, so I don't usually fall for the ol' "closure" routine. Men usually don't use that term anyway (women do), but the actions of returning to where you once were (Pisces influence) usually has more to do with not being able to handle the rejection, more than it does needing closure. Returning to the scene of the crime (Love) can often have one trying to prove they aren't worthy of rejection more than anything else. It's a tough pill to swallow when you are rejected or set free for any reason. Venus in Aries since March 13, 2017 sure isn't helping matters because Venus in Aries has really been helping us Love ourselves again and now we return to Venus in Pisces, which takes us into the past, karma, self-undoing and silent suffering, where Love is concerned. DANG IT!

Further, Venus in Pisces returns once again to square Saturn in Sagittarius. RATS! Folks, the Venus square Saturn aspect is a tough one for Love. Remember from your January Astro-Memes when Venus was in Pisces and it was squaring Saturn in Sagittarius? Well, it's happening again only this 'applying and separating degree' period will last a lot longer. This is a tough aspect, and I mean it is real tough. Venus square Saturn will make you feel as if no one Loves you, not even your friends, family, spouse or partner. Not only will this feel like no one Loves you, it will feel like if they do have anything to do with you, it will only be because they want something from you. It's the energy folks and it doesn't necessarily mean that what you feel is True. You feeling this way and now you know why. If you know why, then you can skate through this period with too much drama, tears or self-pity.

Very few of you will be 'Feelin' the Love' during this aspect. The Venus square Saturn aspect will not be exact this coming Saturday, April 8, 2017 at 4:28 PM EDT, but we have already been in the applying degrees of this aspect since March 24, 2017. That means these two planets have been coming closer and closer together since that time and by Saturday they will be at an exact squaring angle that does not feel Good. When planets are in applying degrees, then you should intuitively feel this energy. You can feel it coming down the street and your body reacts to the tension. After Venus square Saturn is exact on April 8, 2017 then these two planets will begin pulling away from each other, which means they will be in separating degrees until May 7, 2017.

Venus in Pisces Retrograde is telling us to look out for ---> Lovers of the past! Karmic Love! Soulmate Love! Over-Imaginative Love! Reminiscent Love! Secret Lovers! Unconditional Love! and Unrequited Love! About 30 percent of us are in soulmate lifetimes, which is evidenced through your natal chart nodes. So no, not all of us are here to meet up with a soulmate and have a soulmate connection. Some of us are in career lifetimes, health lifetimes, money lifetimes, family lifetimes, teaching lifetimes, children lifetimes. When we get wrapped up in calling unrequited Love, painful Love or over-imaginative Love a 'soul mate connection' then it will make it hard to move forward because of the pain of rejection. Who wants to reject or be rejected.

This Venus Retrograde square to Saturn can also bring up money issues or issues with authority figures including the father or father figure. The money issues are really about self-worth, which translates into our personal money because how we use money is typically how we express our self-worth. We might keep ourselves in lack through splurging to make ourselves feel better or convince others that we are better than they think. This Venus Retrograde can really mess with your Love situation.

While this Retrograde can take us back to sweet sweet romantic Love, where we will do anything for Love including acting like a fool for Love, it can also keep us in Love-Limbo waiting and waiting and waiting for that person to call. The karmic or soulmate connection feeling, where you or someone else simply cannot let go, is just over-whelming. Check your rejection dial to see if this could be the problem. Love can be tough when Venus Retrogrades into Pisces because there is a tendency of denial, fantasy or an over-active imagination where Love is concerned. And you sure shouldn't mix alcohol with Love when Venus is Retrograde. Venus in Pisces is 'Unconditional Love' where it can keep you still Loving someone who is abusive, mean or hurtful. Folks, this can apply to anyone in your Life such as a parent, child, Lover, friend, etc. Love is Love. Still, it would be typical to see this in romantic Love. Venus in Pisces Retrograde will hold onto someone's ankles as they are walking out the door. It's kinda pathetic. Anything for Love is the motto for Venus in Pisces.

Remember, this square between Venus and Saturn will be exact on Saturday, April 8, 2017 which is a horrible date for a first date. That is a date where Love can look like it went so incredibly well, but it turns out to be a date that will be the beginning of a long and ugly road for Love.

If you notice below, today we experience five (5) aspects to the Moon. First a trine, then a square, then a sextile, then a square and then an opposition. The two (2) squares and the opposition are challenges. Not to mention the Moon is in over-emotional and over-sensitive Cancer, and all of these energies are overlapping each other. Talk about confusing emotional energy! Good grief! This Moon takes everything very personal and can make you think someone is directing something at you when it isn't the case at all.
