Theme: Never give up

With Scorpio energy in abundance there is energy to surpass challenges and recover from defeats. There is a transformative quality to the journey that Scorpio embodies: the journey through life’s challenges can turn straw into gold through a transformation in perspective. Venus is trine Uranus today bringing an unexpected twirl in relationships and connections. There is far seeing quality to Uranus which can free up relationships.

Theme: Do Something Different

The Venus trine Uranus energy for the next several days indicates that we are up for doing something out of our normal routine. This will effect our relationships. And we will not be looking for a steady situation. There is still danger in overheated interactions today, but we can be very productive if we channel our energy wisely. The Moon has entered Taurus for a few days which adds security and comfort to our emotional life.

If you feel stuck, move. You’re not a tree. ~Germany Kent

Theme: Energized and Argumentative

Can we take advantage of the positive energy of Mercury conjunct Mars, and not the negative side? We have much intellectual energy for the next few days. Yet we are prone to competitiveness, and may be spoiling for a fight. If others are confronting you, consider whether or not it is something worth standing up for. The Moon is in Aries for two more days. This adds to the fiery, action oriented energy.

Theme: All things considered

With Mars at home in Scorpio conjunct Mercury and the Sun your focus and attention can be laser like. You can really investigate your inner psychology productively. Be aware of the force of your opinions and do not seek to sway others through force or righteousness. There is a mystic rectangle between Uranus, Venus, Ceres and the Moon bringing an opportunity to resolve tension and stress by focusing on more productive, supportive avenues.

Although it is embarrassing and painful, it is very healing to stop hiding from yourself. It is healing to know all the ways that you’re sneaky, all the ways you hide out, all the ways that you shut down, deny, close off, criticize people, all your weird little ways…by knowing yourself you’re coming to know humanness together.~Pema Chodron

Theme: Awakening and love in the ether

With the Moon conjunct Neptune opposite Venus you can feel an experience of love but you will need to be discerning about your affections. Are they real? What is your motivation. It’s a good time for spiritual practice to sort matters of the heart and follow the thread of compassion in your contemplations. Big questions arise today. With Sun in Scorpio you have opportunities to explore your motivations for what you do.

Take the lowest place, and you shall reach the highest.~Milarepa

Theme: A lot going on

Mostly beneficial aspects mean you don’t slide into too many challenges – except for that part of the day were Moon conjuncts Saturn – giving you little or no wriggle room to deal with a situation. It is what it is. The Moon in Pisces compliments the Sun in Scorpio. You can really connect with deep underlying emotions today and give them an opportunity for letting them go like bubbles rising from a deep spring. Much is accomplished today. Dedicate your good efforts to the welfare of all being.

…compassion is of particular importance. It is the seed of the Great Way in the beginning; the water that makes the crops grow in the middle and finally, the ripening of the fruit.~HH 41st Sakya Trinzin Ngawang Kunga

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA until 4:33am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Fortitude and Support

The grand trine between Saturn and the Sun continues to offer a silver lining: when fortitude, perseverance and diligence are applied good outcomes result. The Sun moves into Scorpio today bringing emotional depth and the ability to transform one’s view into play. It’s a good month to conduct investigative research and deal with shared resources. The Moon squares Uranus bringing feelings of separation to the fore, for a time.

My worth is not, and should never be, attached to my ability to produce things. I’m a human, not a machine. I have emotions and anxieties that sometimes hinder my ability to perform. But instead of treating my anxiety as a setback, I now view it as an important signal for me to step back, reset and rest before I continue.~Naydeline Mejia

Theme: Discipline

The Sun trine Saturn for several days which brings discipline and self control into our lives. This is an excellent time to get things done that require these qualities. The testing that can come from adversarial forces continues at the same time. The Moon has entered Aquarius for a few days. Our minds turn more towards progressive and humanitarian themes. 4 out of the last 5 planets are still retrograde indicating that more is changing internally than externally now.

Transcendent discipline consists of avoiding negative actions, undertaking positive actions, and benefiting others. ~Patrul Rinpoche

The Moon is void of course from 2:02 am until 2:07 am EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Tested

We are tested today by significant forces. Do we need to let go of habit patterns that are not working for us? This can be a powerful experience of being purged. Authority figures will also test if we have handled our responsibilities correctly. There is still the positive combination of Venus and Jupiter benefiting our relationships. In the evening, however, more tension will come to the surface.

There is some greatness in each of us but it cannot fully emerge unless we are tested by adversity. ~C. A. A. Savastano
