The BIG NEWS today is Venus in Sagittarius quincunx's Uranus in Taurus. I NEVER include quincunx aspects in my daily horoscope writings simply because the more aspects I address, the more astrology that has to be written, which could make writing on a daily basis more intense. I do however include quincunx's in the natal charts that I write.

A quincunx is also called inconjunct, not to be confused with conjunct or conjunction. A quincunx unites two (2) signs that have nothing in common or no relationship or connection. It's like saying, "What are THEY doing together?" We all know couples like that, right? Quincunx's are not about romantic relationships or partnerships per se, but the quincunx today is just that, which is why I thought, "Oh what the hell", I'll talk about it today.

So you can imagine what a challenge this aspect must be if it is uniting two (2) signs that have pretty much nothing in common except the angle of 150°. Having said that, quincunx's are a challenge, which make you choose between a rock and a hard place. You still have to choose. A quincunx is thought to be one of the most difficult aspects to work with because it will not allow for retreat. YES OR NO! There's no backing down when it comes to this aspect because you can't just think your way out of it, you have to take action. CHOOSE!

I decided to write something about this quincunx today because I DO SEE commonality with today's aspect through the planets involved, even though the quincunx is about the non-commonality of the two (2) signs involved. Venus is in Sagittarius quincunx Uranus in Taurus, and Venus naturally rules Taurus. SO THERE! This particular quincunx could be looking for Love in all the wrong places. It's almost like Sagittarius stoled Taurus's gal. It's weird quincunx'y energy. This aspect can cause you to wonder, ponder, question or back pedal where a relationship is concerned.

My advice when energy like this pops up is just to go to your corner's and stay there. I wouldn't go out with friends because this aspect already has relationship weirdness surrounding it. Why throw gas on a spark igniting this aspect into a big ass fire when it's not necessary? Chill.

Uranus involved can have you, the partner, or both of you talking kinky and then next thing ya' know when there is an argument, this kinky weirdness gets pulled up and thrown into the other one's face. No no no . . . do not start talking stupid shit right now because it's a hard aspect and it will get you into trouble, if not now, sometime in the future.

The 'orb of influence' for quincunx's never lasts long, not more than one (1) or two (2) days, typically two (2) days before and after exactness. Before you know it, the weird energy is over and the relationship is back to normal. Quincunx's occur pretty much about four (4) days a week, either as lunar aspects or with the other planets. So you see, they are common. But again, if I included quincunx's every day, there would be a lot more writing and meme creation.

This quincunx can be dangerous to relationships if you are already 'on the rocks' or tired of each other. This aspect will not help matters. Uranus involved screams rebellion, independence and DON'T CLING TO ME! So either you or the partner could feel cramped, smothered, tired or in need of space. Damn, just don't talk to each other and disappear from sight into the other room. Can you do that? Can you do that without poking or provoking? Can you just leave each other alone?

And HEY, this can be any relationship that is teetering on an uneasiness or an argument. Uranus says, "I'm feeling unstable leave me alone. I just want to be FREE! I need more space. Get away from me!"

The Moon in Aries (rambunctious) opposes Mercury (communication) in Libra at 1:26 AM EDT, so we will feel this more on last night than this morning when we wake-up, but the remnant energy is still lingering in the air until the early afternoon hours.

The Moon will also trine Venus in Sagittarius at 6:40 AM EDT, which is looking for Love and attention. Well if that doesn't confuse you then I don't know what will. (winky wink) By the evening hours the Moon trine Venus energy will be gone and the exactness of Venus quincunx Uranus will hit and last until Thursday - October 21, 2021.
