Theme: Not boring

There are so many different energetic aspects today that it’s hard to know which aspects will be in ascendancy. You will need to be mindful today of the relationship between your strong emotions and your physical health. Slow down and avoid giving into anger. There will be disruption today with Uranus opposite the Sun and Moon. The Moon trine Neptune gives you vital space for reflection and contemplation. The new moon ushers in new beginnings so turning over a new leaf or starting a new activity is supported at this time.

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST USA 6:03pm until 9:23pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Continually meditate upon devotion, renunciation, love, compassion, and the supreme mind of enlightenment, bodhicitta.~ Jamyang Khytense Chokyi Lodro

Theme: Deep Answers

The Moon has joined the Sun and Mars in Scorpio today, and the new Moon occurs early tomorrow. We are looking to get to the bottom of things. This is an excellent time for research. The depressive square energy between Mercury and Saturn is separating and we are more optimistic. The Moon is opposite Jupiter during the first half of the day. We are generous, but also self-indulgent. Beware of over doing today.

The outer and inner nature of phenomena is primordially pure emptiness, and from that state of emptiness anything can arise. ~H H Drubwang Penor Rinpoche

Theme: Surprises

The Sun is united with Mars for several days, and they both are in opposition to Uranus. Expect the unexpected, especially in one-on-one encounters. There is restlessness in the air, and be careful driving and operating machinery. Ultimately these next few days are about becoming freer, more authentically ourselves. Mercury has entered Sagittarius for the next 3 weeks, bringing some optimism to balance the seriousness of the Sun and Mars in Scorpio.

The surprise is that you continue to be surprised. ~Jill A Davis

Theme: Expanding ideas

With Mercury moving into Sagittarius today you can open your eyes wider to see more around you to inform your ideas and vision. It’s a big picture time. The Moon moves into Libra, and along with Venus in Libra brings a focus on equality, justice, harmony and beauty. Friendship is another strong theme with Libra. The Libran energy serves as a counterweight to the Sun conjunct Mars in Scorpio which can signal war. Libran diplomacy can slow down aggression and offer alternate pathways.

… when you take one idea, formulate something, – and become attached to it, – your universe shrinks. So let your universe become large.~Zen Master Bon Haeng

Theme: Inner warrior

With the Sun closing in on Mars, forming a conjunction, the warrior energy comes to the fore. Rather than focusing on external combat you can chose to take advantage of this aspect by fighting the ultimate inner foe- the ego – that prevents us from being who we truly are. It is a time of heightened energy so more awareness is needed around physical activity. Venus moves into Libra today providing a counterbalance to times of conflict by seeking harmony and diplomatic solutions in challenging situations.

It is not possible to control all external events; but, if I simply control my mind, what need is there to control other things.~Shantideva

Theme: Reflecting

The Moon moves into Virgo today bringing a down to earth focus and attention to details, and animal themes and gardening subjects are engaged. Venus is trine Pluto providing strength in relating to others and fortitude in dealing with difficulties. Saturn opposes the Moon today inviting self-discipline and patience in dealing with immoveable situations. Your communications can tap into other worldly-themes and spiritual contemplations.

If we have a body there will always be problems with the body. If we have a relationship there will always be problems in relationship. If you try to do anything at all in your life there will always be some difficulties. That is how things are. So we should not be surprised that it is that way.~Chime Rigdzin Rinpoche

Theme: Intense Emotional Expression

Venus harmonizes with Pluto for several days. Besides intense emotional expression we can be come more aware of the inner workings of our minds in regards to our relationships. Be aware that the current strong, compulsive aspect in a relationship will wear off when the energy separates. Intense mental activity continues for one more day, and the Sun is approaching a union with Mars. This is energizing but can lead to strong wills and conflicts.

But feelings can’t be ignored, no matter how unjust or ungrateful they seem. ~Anne Frank

Theme: Nervous or Excited

Mercury is exactly (to the nearest minute!) opposed to Uranus at 12pm today where I create the chart for the readings. This has both positive and negative possibilities. We can have unusual insights and our brain works extra quickly. But we can be nervous and scatterbrained. Expect blunt speech and sloppiness as well. The Moon has entered Leo for a few days. It is a good time to focus on creative self expression.

Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all is a form of planning. ~Gloria Steinem

The Moon is void of course today until 4:22 am EDT today. Do not make any big decisions during this time frame.

Theme: Soft and Serious

The Moon in gentle, secure Cancer harmonizes with Venus for much of today. This energy supports love and friendship in our relationships. At the same time the Sun, Mars and Mercury are loosely connected in the serious sign, Scorpio. This is time to get to the bottom of any issues that we face. The Sun is tightly opposed to Jupiter. This makes us upbeat and generous, however we can go overboard with anything we do now.

Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world’s original sin. If the cave-man had known how to laugh, History would have been different. ~Oscar Wilde

Theme: Expansion

With trines and sextiles prominent today there is more flow to activity: you can see the light at the end of the tunnel if you focus in the right direction. With the Sun and Moon in water signs you can tap into compassion for yourself and others more easily, knowing that everyone is suffering in their own way. Scorpio Sun gives fortitude and determination to stay the course while Moon in Cancer gives us the nurturing sustenance of our family, whatever that looks like for you.

When you are constantly alert, you can really enjoy and love. Otherwise, we are always thinking about the next thing, and we can’t really feel life.~Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche
