It begins with 2020's signature clang, as Jupiter and Pluto once more bend their heads together in Capricornia but this time in retrograde. This harbinger and catalyst of cultural change first exerted its direct influence in March/April and its final meeting after this week will be in November.

It underpins the sweeping reforms that remains our 2020 vision, the kind showing their hand in our world and in our lives. As the old guard is falling on its sword to make way, check what - or who - you are saving and why. This is the revisionary clang that lights up worn circuits and old programming. Listen to it.

As we ramp towards the final lunar eclipse this weekend, the sun has quite a full dance card before he meets his lover the moon. He squares Chiron, his beams like salt on our oldest wounds. All the better to see clearly in order to heal. He rebirths Mercury in rx, their cazimi setting a new tone in the relationship between head and heart. He nods to Urania in another wake up call that hits like lightning. And then he eclipses the full moon.

Saturn reverses back into his home state too this week, cementing the Capricorn emphasis on structural change and integrity. On not shirking the work or dancing around it. On shoring up our foundations, filling those fault lines with the gold of hard won wisdom and fresh understanding.

And so it begins. Navigating this week demands dexterity, poise and the kind of far sighted vision that holds you firmly between past and future, focused on the job at hand now. It tantalises with opportunity and inspiration for the bold and courageous who have traded wailing for wondering how.

Revolution has never been for the feint of heart but it can make leaders and lovers of us all. This week listen well if you want to truly learn, with senses fixed in the present.

The secret of transformation is how we handle this moment.
