Theme: Tension

The full Moon happens today, which brings emotional tension to the surface. This adds on to the other challenging energies of the outer planets that continue. Our thinking and communication style continues in practical, detail-oriented Virgo but now we will think big. Be careful not to take on too much or overlook details for the next several days. Otherwise this is a good time for planning. When I get a headache, I take two asprin and keep away from children just like the bottle says. ~ Anon.

Theme: Strong and Weak

Today the Moon enters Aries and is united with Jupiter. This leads to a positive outlook and energy to work on “big picture” projects. Yet Mars is challenged by Neptune until the end of November. This can be demoralizing. Can we let go of our ego urges enough to blend them with the spiritual? This will help our morale and energy. This is a potent time for prayer, meditation and compassionate action. We have to develop the habit of putting some spaciousness into our mind in order to accomplish spaciousness at the time of our death. ~ Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today from 7:12 am until 11:58 am EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Insight and Change

Today the Moon in Pisces harmonizes with Uranus’s sudden insights and quick changes. Meditation and prayer will be fruitful. The conflict between our attachments to what we rely on and the need for progress continues until late November. But today is doubly easier, as not just our emotions, the Moon, but also our thinking, Mercury, flows with deep change. Today we can get to the bottom of a problem that has been lingering. Insight is the capacity to “see into” a person or situation. ~ George Christopher Scruggs

Theme: Feeling and Planting

With the waxing Moon now in Pisces it’s a good time to plant seeds and crops – and get in touch with your heart. Pisces gives us more access to the emotions and, if we are willing and open, connects us with compassion and kindness. You will be more sensitive to others vibes right now so choose your company well. Pisces energy is also associated with loosening boundaries between this world and the next.

The clear, calm, stainless, moonlike quality where the shackles which bind the person to becoming this and that, one thing after another, are dropped and allowed to go- this is what I call wisdom.~Sutta Nipata

Theme: One of those variable days

It’s a day of mixed blessings. Go easy and carefully on working with equipment if you’re emotionally stressed. You also feel a bit hemmed in emotionally. But you also have energy to deal with challenges and be assertive. With the Moon involved in these transits these particular challenges pass by the end of the day. The Moon in Aquarius means you can be more experimental with solutions. Friends also offer you their support.

The greatest challenge to any thinker is stating the problem in a way that will allow a solution.~Bertrand Russell

Theme: Harmony tea

Harmonious aspects create ease and harmony today. Mercury opposite Neptune continues to create a lack of focus and misunderstandings in communication, so it’s a little like Mercury retrograde is still hanging around. Rest, relax, walk, meditate. So whatever your preferred beverage is – enjoy a break.

On every mountain height is rest.~Goethe

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA until 6.20am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Practical Beauty

With the Moon in Capricorn and Sun in Libra conjunct Venus there is a focus on both practical matters combined with a beautiful appearance. Capricorn favors useful beauty which can be simply a beautiful tool. Libra looks more skyward at architectural and the beauty of design. Today, with Pluto conjunct the moon emotional truths are revealed, warts and all.

Form is no other than emptiness, Emptiness no other than form. Form is only emptiness, Emptiness only form.~Heart Sutra

Theme: A Sigh of Relief

Finally! Today Mercury goes direct, but really it stations as it appears to turn around. So expect things to start improving around relations and communication. By the time Mercury enters Libra on the 11th it will have returned to its normal speed.
Venus, Moon and Jupiter all play a role in bringing pleasant social connections and enjoying being with friends. The worst problem you might have all day is overeating! Excessive indulgence and pleasure of the senses could also affect your credit rating. Be that as it may, Mercury going direct is worth celebrating.

In the midst of chaos there is always opportunity.  ~Sun Tsu
