The Sun’s entrance into SCORPIO today marks the beginning of a four-week journey through deep emotional waters. SCORPIO urges transformation, power and uncovering hidden truths. Venus, joining Neptune, forms a dreamy connection between the material and spiritual worlds, making today ripe for creative pursuits or romantic contemplation. You might be drawn to art, music or quiet introspection. There’s an almost mystical quality to this energy, that can help you get in touch with what lies beneath the surface.

If you try to force an answer or push forward too quickly, you might miss the subtle insights that could guide you later. Give yourself permission to dream and reflect. The path will become clearer with time.
Moon alert: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in SCORPIO.

Georgia man arrested after confessing to 1989 New Jersey cold case murder, authorities say
A Griffin, Georgia man is now under arrest, charged in connection with a cold case homicide investigation in New Jersey, prosecutors say.
It’s been nearly 37 years since 42-year-old Mauricio Cuadra was shot during an apparent home invasion; now, authorities say 62-year-old Joseph Quiros-Soto is charged with his murder.
Officials say on Aug. 9, 1989, the officers with the Bayonne Police Department responded to reports of a home invasion and shooting at an apartment on the 400 block of Avenue C. Inside the home, they found Cuadra suffering from a gunshot wound. Cuadra died shortly after.
The case remained a mystery until 2024, when Quiros-Soto confessed to the murder to police in Locust Grove, Georgia, saying that he had become a born-again Christian, NJ.com reports.
Police told the outlet that he gave the detectives details of the crime and allowed visiting Hudson County authorities to take a DNA sample, which matched a stain on the victim.
Authorities were eventually able to obtain a warrant for the Georgia man’s arrest. On May 27, 2026, deputies with the Spalding County Sheriff’s Office arrested Quiros-Soto at his home in Griffin, charging him with murder and murder during the commission of a burglary.
Quiros-Soto is being detained in Georgia, awaiting extradition to New Jersey.
