Theme: Social and Indulgent

Especially in the middle of the day, the Moon is united with Venus, and they both harmonize with Mars. This favors all kinds of social gatherings. We can also assert ourselves in a way that is pleasant. There is danger if one goes shopping and has to stick to a strict budget. Easier to stay away from temptation until tomorrow. Arguments are still more likely than usual today.

We can improve our relationships with others by leaps and bounds if we become encouragers instead of critics. ~Joyce Meyer

Theme: Irritable and Defensive

For a few days Mercury, our thoughts and communication, is at cross purpose to Mars, our assertive tendencies. Watch out for being touchy and irritable with others. We may have to defend our point of view. This also makes accidents more likely. In the first half of the day, the Moon is square Pluto, which can trigger compulsive behavior, or this energy can be used for deep insight.

Defensiveness is usually someone silently screaming that they need you to value & respect them in disguise. ~Sharon Alder

The Moon is void of course today from 6:42 am until 7:23 am EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Finding balance, seeking harmony.

With three planets and other significant points in Libra the focus is very much on finding balance and harmony. Libra is also a social air sign: friendships are key at this time. The Moon in Libra opposite Chiron invites us to heal past wounds through beneficial connections with others. The sign of Libra also signifies open enemies, meaning you know where people stand. Mars in Cancer emphasizes less direct ways of asserting oneself and approaching thorny issues.

Each being is sacred — meaning that each has inherent value that cannot be ranked in a hierarchy or compared to the value of another being.~Starhawk

Theme: New beginnings

The new moon brings new energy for new efforts for new beginnings. Growth is a theme at this time, initiating activity another. The Sun and Moon close together in Libra speak to our capacity for inner union and balance. The process of finding balance can take time: patience is a helpful friend. With the Dark Moon, New Moon and Mercury also close to one another the process of finding inner union involves acknowledging the dark as well as the light.

We are shaped by our thoughts, we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.~Buddha
