Theme: Passionate Intensity

Intense emotions surface with the conjunction of Moon and Pluto, bringing them to the surface to transform. This can be helpful when practicing. On a personal level you may explore deep seated feelings with another person that could be overwhelming. As the Moon moves into Aquarius during the day the passions shift from the personal more to group or community concerns. So suppose, then, we were in the posture of understanding in a deep and profound way the correct view of how to see, how to know, how to experience devotional yoga.~Jetsunma Akhon Lhamo

Theme: Enjoy the day

Neptune is basking in a loving relationship with the Moon and Venus, fostering our empathy and compassion for others and inspiring our creativity. As we explore our new freedoms, we may leave routine behind today and involve ourselves with spontaneous and unexpected activities. Results may be pleasantly surprising. If you go down in the woods today, You’re sure for a big surprise!~The Teddy Bears Picnic

Theme: Be unafraid

With Venus exactly opposite Pluto there is a deep well of resources to be drawn upon in difficult times. This aspect can forge courage. The T-square between Saturn, Uranus and Mars especially can bring difficulties, challenging resilience. The lighter, brighter resources of Venus and Jupiter are available and helpful at this time. The full moon today in Capricorn brings a focus on stepping towards long-term goals. It can also crystallize obstacles to those goals. Impulse always quickens when it’s full As it turns my head around me, Yes it does and here it comes, Here comes the moon…~George Harrison

Theme: A lot going on!

Welcome to the Sun in Cancer and increased focus on family, home and inner journeys. There is much activity and complexity to the day. There are insights to be had and good news in the wings. You have more discipline and energy. The tension that has been prevalent in some aspects of your life is slowly diminishing. Emotionally, boundaries are less clear today so be circumspect in sharing your feelings. Materially and imaginatively I shall present offerings on an unsurpassable and vast scale.~Longchenpa

Theme: Clear communication

Thank goodness Mercury is going direct today. For a time all the weird, wild and perhaps not so wonderful communications and misunderstandings cease. Now is the time to move forward with communications and new projects. With the Moon moving into Sagittarius today there is new found optimism. Tasks seem big and at times overwhelming but with discipline there are good results. The secret of getting ahead is getting started. ~Mark Twain

Theme: Theme:  Expansive Deliberation

Jupiter retrogrades today until October 19th, remaining in Pisces until July 28th. This is a very beneficial time for gaining deeper insight into spiritual matters. By turning inward you can better evaluate if you’re living your life according to outer pressures or being guided by inner wisdom.
Use this time for more expansive self-examination and see where you need further illumination in your life.~Compassion and enlightenment can never be separated. Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 6.52 am EST USA until 7.58 am. If you’re in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or signing contracts during this time.

Theme: Concentration is the key

With Moon, Saturn and Mercury forming a Grand Trine in the element of air, today is a good day to apply your mind to some serious study. Your concentration is sharpened and enables you to delve into intractable problems, particularly related to emotions. Patience and diligence are your friends, helping you stay longer on your meditation seat, gaining greater insight. Then consciousness remains stable and unwavering, like the depths of the ocean.~Zhang Rinpoche

Theme:  Peace and harmony save the day

As Mercury stations as it’s about to go direct on the 22nd you might find yourself unable to form a decent sentence, sending an email to the wrong person, forgetting commitments or simply forgetting! But don’t worry, more will be revealed as Mercury goes direct and picks up pace in a few days. With the Moon in Libra today you can easily smooth the waters if any faux-pas has been committed. Your ability to see all sides outweighs any mercurial mistake and you will easily move to a place of great harmony and equanimity. Without being peace, we cannot do anything for peace.~Thich Nhat Hanh

Theme: Go with the flow

With so many planets in mutable signs it’s a time to bend in the breeze and go with the flow. The moon opposite Neptune gives a dreamy quality to the day but also affords opportunities for pause and contemplating the nature of reality. You are better at connecting with others but there is also a tendency to speak without thinking which could cancel out those good connections. Like the streaming river Tsangpo Nothing is still for even a moment.~Milarepa
