Them: Step forward, step back

Mars is conjunct Neptune which lessens physical energy and forward movement at this time. This gives you time to plan and reflect giving you more space before you can fully harness Mars in Aries which, once it pulls away from Neptune, will be a very active period of time. The Moon-Pluto conjunction is emotionally intense and gradually abates today. Each transit of the outer planets like Pluto, to the Moon can be emotionally transformational if you can let your ego rest and, instead, see how you can be of benefit to others.

A benefit is estimated according to the mind of the giver.~ Seneca the Younger

Theme: Full Speed Ahead and Social

Mars has joined the Sun, Saturn and Neptune in the sign of Aries. This is a time for decisive action. Mars and the Sun do well in Aries. At the same time the Moon is sextile Mercury especially in the middle of the day, which bolsters our communication in a sensitive way. It is also a good day for socializing. Later in the day we crave excitement, and can make rapid changes in our life.

The cure for most obstacles is- be decisive. ~George Weinberg

Theme: Connection

With Venus trine the Moon today in Capricorn and Venus in the tactile sign of Taurus it’s a physical connection day with yourself, others and the earth. How will you feel connected to your environment today? The Sun in Aries propels activity forward at a pace. Just be careful to keep your hands on the steering wheel! Mars moves out of Pisces into Aries providing a clearer sign of direction and forward focus.

Desire becomes patience.~ Astro Gold Astrologer

Theme: Inspiration

Mars is sextile Uranus exactly today bringing spark and speedy action. It can be an inspiring and energizing day. The Moon moves into Capricorn bringing a firm work ethos into play. It’s a good time for goal setting. The Sun is approaching closer to Chiron engaging the theme of the wounded healer. Our experience of emotional suffering allow us to have compassion for others in similar circumstances.

I have used up all my weapons, and I’m helpless and bereaved Wounds are all I’m made of. Did I hear you say that this is victory?~ Blue Oyster Cult

The Moon is Void of Course in Sagittarius between 5.51am and 8.04am today. Avoid signing contracts at this time. Find time for reflection and connection.

Theme: Too much or too little?

Astrologically speaking, Jupiter signals beneficial, bountiful and expansive energy but in challenging aspect to other planets can be over-blown, overdone and over the top – without sufficient boundaries to help determine the possible. Jupiter is square the Sun which is a dynamic, shifting aspect bringing both good and challenging moments. Psychologically, it can bring a feeling of confidence and/or being overwhelmed. The solution is to give yourself space which in turn helps harness the Sagittarian Centaur with compassion and wisdom.

Krishna asserts that generosity (dana) and compassion (daya) are qualities that arise ‘from me alone.’~Baghavad Gita

Theme: Making opportunities

The Moon is in good aspect with the Sun today and tomorrow bringing harmony and balance between your inner and outer life-goals. With the confidence trines bring including Jupiter trine Mercury, now is the time to act with good intention for maximum benefit. Venus in Taurus helps stabilize relationships and bring a smoother quality to interactions. Moreover, Venus is in good aspect to the Nodes and Ceres providing harmonious and beneficial new directions for you.

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.~Thomas Edison

Theme: Looking for Excitement

For the next week Mars is sextile Uranus which makes us impatient, and we look for new experiences. This is not a great time for the same old thing or painstaking discipline. The Sun is still square to Jupiter which is a mostly positive. Just don’t be sloppy with details or be overbearing. And beware of the tendency to take on too much. Mercury is trine Jupiter for one more day. This aids in making plans that have the big picture in mind.

The certainty of life is beautiful, but the uncertainty is exciting and amazing. ~Unknown

The Moon is void of course today from 5:30 pm until 7:33 pm EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Ease, Confidence and Overdoing it?

The Sun squares Jupiter for several more days. If we are naturally conservative we will take on more and be successful. But if we tend to be bold we can take on too much during this period. Beware of being arrogant as well. Especially in the middle of the day the Moon trines Jupiter which bolsters our mood even more. Relationships should go well, and there is a boost in areas of religion, philosophy and long-distance travel.

Open your eyes and look around. All sentient beings are suffering. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Full Moon

The Moon is full today in Libra at 10.13pm ESDT. Social activities and networking are magnified with the full moon along with diplomacy and making the world a more beautiful place. Insights and self-discipline are also in play as the Moon opposes Neptune and Saturn today. Today the Moon, through the Sun, shines on our inner emotional patterns which are heightened and therefore easier to see and let go and heal. It’s a balancing time of yin and yang.

And lift a cup to bright moon, ask it to join me,
Then face my shadow and we become three.
The moon never has known how to drink,
All my shadow does is follow my body,
But with moon and shadow as companions a while,
This joy I find will surely last till spring.~Li Bai

Theme: Whatever you choose!

The Moon is opposite Mars today: it pays to invest heavily in patience when you are triggered by others. It’s simply a reactive day that affords you more opportunity to watch your mind and press the pause icon on whatever ‘track’ is playing. The Moon in Virgo is attentive to details but can be finicky too. There are insights to be had today in respect of your life purpose.

Facts are cheels that winna ding, An’ downa be disputed.~ Robert Burns

The Moon is Void of Course in Virgo ESDT from 9.20am-10.50pm. Avoid signing contracts and focus on the small things.
