Astrology: The history behind the ancient movement
The transit Moon journeys through the zodiac of Libra today (Thursday, May 16) and is poised to enter Scorpio tomorrow. Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac and is said to be a harmonious sign of balance and diplomacy. In astrology, Libra represents peace, cooperation and gentleness. As a result, people who are born with a strong Libra influence in their charts, are said to be very agreeable people who hate to see injustice in the world.
At the same time, the Sun is still present in the sign of Taurus and will remain there until May 21.
Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac in the earth house of elements.
Astrologers believe Taurus is a very grounded and headstrong cosmic influence.
People who follow the guidance of Taurus the Bull are often said to be reliable and devoted to everything they do.

But these are not the only astrological aspects to look out for today.
According to astrologer Marina Stoichkova of MarStars Astrology, Mercury forms a trine with Saturn today.
A trine describes a 120-degree separation between two celestial bodies on the horoscope charts.
Trines are often considered a favourable aspect to deal with because it allows the energy between two planets to flow freely and without opposition.

“This is the day when you can use your logical mind.
“And also this is a wonderful day for planning, for executing your ideas, for being precise, for being patient, for doing the needed work, for organising.
“That’s a beautiful aspect really, especially for people who want concrete results in terms of work or something material or something long lasting.

“Overall, it’s a very stabilising aspect, which can also be helpful in terms of business negotiations business planning, business meetings, travelling for business.”
And with the Moon’s slow venture into the sign of Scorpio, Ms Stoichkova said the cosmic focus today will fall on relationships and negotiations.
This means you should be able to find a “balance and harmony” in your life today as long as you allow yourself to.
