Theme: Thinking through things differently 

With Mercury moving back in closer opposition to Chiron it’s an opportunity to think about things differently and see the opportunity in alternative ways of communicating others. Chiron embodies the wounded healer. So what mental or communication wound can be healed by your encounters with others right now? The Moon moves into Capricorn today bringing a focus on practical achievements, setting goals and working with materials. And don’t forget the quirky humor of Capricorn. Time to start planning for next week! Because the weeks never end! They just roll on, oblivious of our attempts at stackable food-storage solutions or our efforts to eat the whole rainbow everyday. Yet we continue the strange performance of “planning”...~Kate Sidley

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT 12.30pm and 1:15pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Catalyzing 

The restless, intuitive energy of Uranus is at the apex of a Yod today. Particularly Mercury, and also the Sun and Mars are involved, as is the quicker moving Moon. We have a harmonious relationship between our emotions and our sense of purpose. And we have a drive to upset the status quo. But because Uranus is retrograde, we will not see the dramatic changes that we want just yet. We will be interested in religion, philosophy, law, and foreign places due to the Moon and Venus in Sagittarius. Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. ~Martin Luther King Jr.

Theme: Feeling Good

With the Moon and Venus united in Sagittarius, we are in the mood for enjoying ourselves. This good feeling starts around lunch time. We are drawn to our past, and past habits. We can look to others for support in going in a new direction within our minds. Continue to cooperate with others, in order to achieve as much as possible. Hang in there because Saturn is going to stop being retrograde in two days. Take a step back, evaluate what is important, and enjoy life. ~Teri Garr

the Moon is void of course from 2:06 am until 11:25 am EDT. Wait on making big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Subjectivity

Twice every 4 months Mercury, our thinking, and the Sun, our sense of purpose, unite. For the next 3 days we are able to focus our energy in a stronger way, but we are less able to see objectively. Pluto is the first of the 6 retrograde planets to move forward again. Let’s use this strong but often subconscious energy constructively. It is time to reform any structures that are not functioning well. It is a good time to work in partnership. Be careful in the first half of the day. Emotions run high then. The person with an itch can’t understand why everyone’s not scratching. ~Marty Rubin

Theme: Identifying causes

With all the Libran energy continuing today it’s an opportunity to see all the different components that make up conflict and address those causes. While Libra, as a sign, maybe conflict averse it’s also very good at smoothing troubled waters.  With Mercury retrograde there is a slowing down of the the pace in which processes can get resolved. Chiron opposite the Sun encourages more insight into personal hindrances to your own development. Don’t you imagine the leaves dream now, how comfortable it will be to touch the earth instead of the nothingness of the air and the endless freshnets of wind?~Mary OIiver

Theme: Maintaining balance

As the Moon moves into Libra joining the Sun, the emphasis is on finding connection and harmony in relationships and the world around you. Being risk averse Libra also seeks to downplay conflict. Libran energy seeks to find a balance which is a process of weighing up the pros and cons of each situation. There is a heightened focus on beauty in all its manifestations whether in structures, art or nature. Form is emptiness, emptiness is form.~Heart Sutra

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT 4.46 am and 8:41 am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Tidying up and pinpointing details

With the Moon in Virgo, it’s a time to enjoy the earth, and it’s also an opportunity to deal with the small things that often get put to one side.  The Sun in Libra brings more social interaction with others. With Mars close by the Sun a balanced and beneficial physical plan aids your health and well being. Just remember not to impose your will but rather, see how things play out. ‘…we have to cultivate qualities which in themselves cannot be cultivated unless we are faced with challenges.~Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo

Theme: Cleaning and Organizing

The Moon has moved into Virgo for 3 days. It is time to clean up the creative expression efforts of the Moon having been in Leo, and to organize and analyze the details of our lives. Mercury is moving backwards faster for the next week. Retreat, contemplation, and research are the favored activities. Activities involving communications between multiple people are prone to misunderstandings. Physical activity is a particularly good outlet as the Sun unites closer with Mars. Our house is clean enough to be healthy, and dirty enough to be happy. ~Unknown

the Moon is void of course until 4:39 am. It is best to avoid this time in making big decisions.
