Mars Square Jupiter
Ed Kluska’s Astrology Timing Report, Sunday, May 21, 2023
Moon in Cancer from late Sunday evening until late Wednesday morning EDT boosts Cancer and, to a lesser degree, the other water signs, Scorpio and Pisces. Moon in Cancer also helps any planets and points you have in Cancer and should help bring more things together for Cancer on a short-term basis.
Moon in Cancer supports anyone’s involvement with Cancer-related activities such as helping family and friends; nurturing people along; cooking, household duties, home decorating, and repairs; antiques, memories, and genealogy; and gardening, housing, real estate, land development, farming, and agriculture.
Overall
Taurus continues to be the most active sign with four points (Mercury, Jupiter, Node, and Uranus), which emphasizes Taurus and the house in your horoscope ruled by Taurus. Also, the stars are more on the plus side for timing, with no significant warnings or alerts. The intense and volatile Mars opposite Pluto aspect highlighted in my last newsletter is over, but you may be facing difficulties if, for example, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are challenging your horoscope.
Mars Square Jupiter
The most significant aspect now is Mars square Jupiter which becomes exact Tuesday morning. This success and opportunity aspect occurs about twice a year and supports any new idea or venture. People with this aspect have the drive and courage to make their visions a reality. They innately feel confident and optimistic doing whatever they need to do. With these two planets being square, the problem is they can always be in “fifth gear” pushing too much for more and more and overdoing it in the process.
Current Sun Sign Factors
To use this information correctly, you need to know the degree of your Sun sign, but the degree of your Sun is not your date of birth. If you don’t know the degree of your Sun, call me, and I will calculate it for you.
Furthermore, these sun-sign assessments are only “the tip of the iceberg” for what you should know. A complete evaluation is far more complex and involved than any newsletter can present. For example, besides your Sun sign degree, there are many other factors to consider, such as the transits to your Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Ascendant, and Midheaven degrees. However, awareness of the current transits to your Sun’s position can be invaluable because the positions of the slower-moving planets (Jupiter in Taurus, Saturn in Pisces, Uranus in Taurus, Neptune in Pisces, and Pluto in Aquarius) can create significant trends and events in your life.

Lunar Aspects
The most important Moon in Cancer aspects are listed below. The descriptions do not intend to tell you what will happen in your life at the listed times. Instead, they provide some of the possibilities you can expect around the times given so you can plan your life more wisely. It is often apparent which time frames are better for timing a party, trip, decision, project, business, or other events.
Lunar aspects are in effect for a few hours (versus days) before and until the times given for the Eastern Time Zone. Therefore, you need to adjust the times for where you live. For example, if you live on the West Coast, there is a three-hour difference, so you must subtract three hours.
The plus (+) lunar aspects are favorable. The minus (-) lunar aspects are more likely to bring challenges or difficulties. Sometimes there is a + and - lunar aspect, which can exhibit positive and negative influences.

Guidelines for Using This Information
These newsletters are not your typical sun sign column. They provide much more information and guidance, but it may not be easy to sort everything out with many factors presented, even for astrology students. Therefore, I try to keep everything as clear and straightforward as possible.
The most critical factor with right timing is what is occurring in your horoscope. When negative aspects dominate your horoscope, the chances of success with right timing diminish no matter how favorable the aspects are in the sky. These newsletters cannot cover what is occurring in your horoscope. However, applying the information in these newsletters with common sense allows you to time your decisions and activities better.
The basic premise with right timing is that it helps to have the "stars" on your side. Starting a marriage, trip, surgery, business, real estate deal, or a major purchase, for example, at an inopportune time reduces the chances of success no matter how good your intentions and how hard you try: the better the timing, the higher your chances of success. Even an hour can make a significant difference in important decisions and events.
Moon enters each zodiac sign about every 28 days and remains in each sign for about two and a half days. When the Moon is in your sun sign, matters will likely come more together for you on a short-term basis unless significant aspects are currently challenging your horoscope.
The traits and qualities I assign to the signs in these newsletters describe the signs’ functions and meanings versus describing your personality. However, the descriptions may be entirely accurate for you. Furthermore, to understand a person’s personality and character from an astrological perspective, dozens of factors besides one's sun sign must be considered.
Contact me to know what’s going on in your horoscope and to make better decisions at better times. We will schedule a private consultation at my office or on the phone, so you can know more about your future and better understand the issues and opportunities in your life as well as your relationships, job, career, education, finances, children, parents, travel, health, location, retirement, karma, and purpose in life.
