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

The Moon is void of course today from 4:21 am until 7:45 am EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

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.

Trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit. ~Moliere

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

Theme: Subjective

This is the peak day of the Sun and Mercury united. The effect will continue for several days. It is more difficult to be objective now, as our thinking a purpose are so aligned. It is an especially good time to listen to other’s view points. We are also feeling good because Venus is harmonizing with Jupiter during this several day period. This is a nice time to enjoy the company of others, just be careful of overindulgence: food, drink and spending.

Objectivity is really collective subjectivity. ~Ibram X. Kendi

Theme: Irritable

The Moon unites with Mars, especially in the middle of the day. We can lose perspective and fly off the handle about anything important to us. We tend to be impulsive and irritable. On the positive side we can take more initiative than usual, and won’t back down from a needed confrontation. We have extra discipline, especially in the first half of the day. And our mood softens by the end of the day.

When angry, count four. When very angry, swear. ~Mark Twain

The Moon is void of course from 3:02 am until 7:05 am EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Eclipse: 21 degrees Libra

The stakes are high today, both astrologically and karmically, with the Solar Eclipse coming at 1:56 pm EDT. Can we think and act with an humanitarian motivation? This eclipse will effect each of us in different ways, but will be particularly oriented towards our close relationships. Be patient and kind today. For a few more days Mars trines Saturn, which gives us extra ability to do difficult, exacting work.

Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. He who loves is a participant in the being of God. ~Martin Luther King

Theme: Time for Easing

With Mars finally moving past the square aspect with Pluto, maybe we don’t have to start WW3, figuratively and literally. It has been an intense week, especially because Pluto came to a stationing point on October 10th adding to the power of the conflicted energy. The Moon is in the final balsamic phase before the new Moon tomorrow. This indicates spiritual potential: the ability to sacrifice one’s self for the greater good.

Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness. ~Napoleon Hill

Theme: Transformation

With the Moon forming a grand trine Uranus and Pluto today it’s a day that offers a chance at beneficial change as forces greater than oneself come into contact with the more personal energy of the Moon. In other words it’s a good day to make the wish to be of benefit to all sentient beings and go where transformational energy directs you. This wish also allows you to serve more beings, especially with the Moon also opposite Neptune directing one towards self-less service. The Moon moves into the peacemaker sign of Libra today bringing much needed change at a time of conflict and war in the world, albeit for a short time.

My advice to you, therefore, is to look within with honesty and clarity and practice what you have been taught, and in this way your life will be transformed into a vehicle of blessings.~Jetsunma Ahkhon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Perfectionism

In the second half of the day Venus enters Virgo, and we become more perfectionistic in our relationships. Can we perfect our side of the street and still be patient with the faults of others? The Moon has entered Leo for a few days, which brings out the need for play and creative self-expression. The Mars and Pluto square is peaking today. Use this energy carefully, and be kind to others.

One of the most important and central thoughts in Buddhist philosophy is the idea of compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo
