Theme: Know Thyself

With four key planets in water signs this is a perfect time for spiritual retreat which is also supported by the daily transits. It is a time of courage and self reliance whether alone or with people. Saturn is well aspected to the Moon to give patience with any adversity, giving endurance when taking time for spiritual retreat or evaluation. With others you are able to communicate openly and sincerely. A person whose mind is distracted lives between the fangs of mental distractions.~Shantideva

Theme: Smooth waters

The Moon moves into Libra bringing more objectivity to emotions. It is easier for you to bring balance and harmony into your relationships where there may have been more recently stress and conflict. You will find it easier to empathize and understand what the other side thinks. Let yourself daydream and create other ways of being. When a swimmer enjoys the clear water of the river, he or she should also be able to be the river.~Thich Nhat Hanh

Theme: Compliments and Courage

Today love, affection and compliments are in the air – but so are bossiness, bluntness and courage in equal measure. If you feel energized, you can make good decisions and inspire others. It’s also day of learning something new and, for some hearing good news. It pays to find a balance where there are contrasting planetary energies. One who performs good deeds and is thoughtful will become harmonious in body, speech and mind.~The Buddha

Theme: Sending and Receiving

Moon joins Venus briefly to further soften Mars and the T-square to Saturn Uranus. Important women in your life will play a focal role at this time. Emotional commitment can stave off feelings of loneliness or depression. Venus and Mars continue their journey together as they leave Saturn and Uranus behind. A pleasant time to be with the ones you love. Strong empathy and compassion may arise as hearts open. As I breathe in, I am taking on the suffering of my friends or others, as I breathe out, I am giving her or them happiness and peace.~Sogyal Rinpoche

Theme: The Tide of Change

This is a time of great power to change your life with Sun and Moon conjunct and opposite Pluto. Unconscious emotions will surface and you may well have conflicts in relationships and authorities. It is often only when we are truly confronted with our behaviors that no longer serve us on the path, that we have the clarity to see what needs changing and move to do just that; change. If your time to you is worth savin’ And you better start swimming’ Or you’ll sink like a stone For the times they are a’changin.~Bob Dylan

Theme: New Moon Arising

Unconscious and sensitive feelings may surface today, particularly related to family or close others. It’s a good time to start new projects or artistic activities. Creativity and love abound. If you consider love is your life, so that it will increase throughout every future incarnation- then you too, are the hope of the world. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

Theme: Go with the flow

What else is there to do but go with the flow when dealing with unpredictability both in projects and in people. You can use this unpredictability to make beneficial changes. There is a generous spirit today that settles the waters. Continue to plan thoughtfully around finances and long term commitments. With the Moon moving into Cancer today joining with the Sun, also in Cancer, there is a harmonizing of the elements. You cannot step twice into the same rivers; for fresh waters are ever flowing in upon you.~Heraclitus

Theme: Misconceptions and Corrections

With Neptune in challenging aspect to the Moon and Mercury there are likely to be communication misunderstandings today, so be prepared to say “I misunderstood you!” There is also more likelihood of people trying to correct others. In these circumstances it’s best to keep your own counsel. Kindness is the key to healing from past trauma. The light of good fortune shines more brightly today. I learned to make my mind large, as the universe is large, so that there is room for contradictions.~Maxine Hong Kingston
