Meanwhile, Venus is now moving through a trine between Mars and Saturn in Capricorn.What to watch for:* It's a Pluto/Uranus kind of day, which means the cathartic depth, power, and heaviness of Pluto is synching up with the rebellious, innovative, and disruptive or shocking qualities of Uranus.* Meanwhile, with Venus enclosed between Saturn and Mars there are also strong themes of beauty, …
