Theme: Communication

With the Moon in Gemini it’s been a ‘talking-through’ couple of days, talking about this, that and the other thing! Now the Moon is about to enter Cancer where it’s at home so less talking and more doing is in the stars. The Moon is also sextile Chiron today reminding you of the connection between your present emotions and past emotional experiences. The Sun in Leo continues to remind us of the need to find joy in simple acts.

…our emotions and habits are so strong that even when the truth is staring us in the face, we are unable to see it.~Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

Theme: Expanded view

With the Moon conjunct Jupiter today you have more optimism due, in part, to having your horizons expanded, and seeing more possibilities. This view can inspire you to have courage. You are more disciplined and committed, as the Moon proceeds on to conjunct Saturn. While Neptune remains in the last degree of Pisces, it’s a good time to contemplate, reflect and intuit the family patterns that inform your path.

The pale moonbeams soon will fade and vanish- this shows the illusory nature of all beings, this proves the transient nature of all things.~Milarepa

Theme: Transitions

The Moon conjunct Uranus today adds frisson to the start of the day. Feelings of separation are coupled with the wish to find freedom and ways to do things differently. Out-of-the-box ideas and inspiring communities are themes. Mercurial mercury in Virgo is good for ironing out details. The waning energy of the Moon’s cycle is a good reminder of the ebb and flow of life. Rather than starting something new continue to hone what you have accomplished.

When illness arises, this brings benefit; Whatever arises – are a treasury of Bliss.~Mahasiddha Padampa Sangye

Theme: Touchstones

With the Moon in Aries conjuncting the north node expect meetings with friends and family today. Of course Moon in Aries also brings with it a direct action approach to events which can work really well – or not. It’s a good idea to pause before engagement, if at all possible, and reflect. Mars in Gemini gives you flexibility to change direction as you need to but the Sun in Leo is a fixed sign so the good part is determination and the challenge is knowing when to shift positions.

Mathematics is a process of staring hard enough with enough perseverence at at the fog of muddle and confusion to eventually break through to improved clarity. ~William Thurston

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 10.31am until 10:52am. 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: From pillar to post

With the Moon conjunct Saturn and Neptune today, in that order, you’ll go from feeling isolated to one with the universe! So it’s just one of those days really. A little unpredictable. Mars and Sun continue to be in good aspect so take the opportunities to complete goals. The Sun is opposite Pluto which can trigger power struggles and fear of loss, but it’s hold is diminishing. The antidote of this struggle is to practice compassion and love for oneself and others.

There is a training in not meditating, a training in naturalness, in letting be.~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Theme: Memory

The Moon moves into Pisces today stirring the hidden and unseen, showing you glimpses of your inner psyche and deeper origins of emotional responses. The full moon has passed and now is the time to reflect and contemplate. Today, there is some jostling with sudden, unexpected events that are resolved by direct action. With Mars in Gemini you can talk through any differences with others with good result.

Many of us hurry along because we do not want to see what is really going on in and around us. We are afraid to let our senses touch the body of suffering or the body of beauty.~Joan Halifax

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 5.58am until 9:23am. 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: Connecting with your inner fire

With the Sun now in the fire sign of Leo it’s a time to pick up your feet, stand tall and believe in yourself. It’s also a time to remember how to play and connect creatively with the world you live in. Children can remind you of the importance of these qualities. The Moon in Aquarius compliments the Sun in Leo, providing you with an inner curiosity that expands your network of friends and encourages you to be innovative.

Don’t take your emotions and yourself too seriously.~Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche

Theme: Creating solutions

With the Sun sextile Mars you’re tempted to create problems – but try solving them instead – as you have a reserve of energy to do so. Avoid excess and overdoing things. Rather, conserve your energy for important tasks. The Moon in Sagittarius buoys you up, giving you more optimism. The Sun in Cancer continues to remind us to tend our homes, making them nurturing and supportive places.

Until you realize the correct view, it is very difficult to have true self-confidence. No matter how much one tries to act self-assured, it is only an intellectual patch.~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Theme: Examining the shadow

With Juno conjunct Lilith, the dark moon, it’s a good time to investigate the shadow self in relationships, and turn the light on the hidden recesses of your engagements with others. The Sun square Chiron invites past emotional wounds to be set free through self-honesty. With the Moon opposite Jupiter there is also a light shining on maternal relationships, and being open-hearted.

Shadow owes its birth to light.~John Gay

Theme: Tension and dissolution

The Moon in Scorpio is opposite the conjunction between Uranus and Mars today so this aspect another reminder to be mindful today, and if you’re provoked to ‘unprovoke’ your response. In other words press the pause button. Mars has moved past Uranus so the inherent tension in that aspect is waning. Venus is in Leo inviting us to access our inner dignity and afford the same to others.

Faith is like a lamp and wisdom makes the flame burn bright. Carry this lamp always and in good time the darkness will yield and you will abide in the Light.~Dhammavadaka
