5 Monday
Jupiter stations direct in Taurus
05:51 AM · Brasília timeThe planet stations and returns to direct motion: what was under review starts moving again, now with what was learned along the way.

8 Thursday
Last Quarter in Libra

15 Thursday
New Moon in Capricorn

20 Tuesday

22 Thursday
First Quarter in Taurus

24 Saturday
Neptune stations retrograde in Libra
10:34 PM · Brasília timeSeen from Earth, the planet stops and moves backwards: a period of review for the themes it rules. Retrograde is not punishment — it is the second pass over the same subject.
25 Sunday
Mercury enters Aquarius
05:10 PM · Brasília timeA planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.
29 Thursday

What this means for your chart
The calendar is the same for everyone; the effect is not. Each event lands in a different house of your chart — and that is what changes what it asks of you.
