Theme: Patience and Flow

With Saturn opposite the Sun today you bear responsibilities and carry a heavier load than usual. But as always in the heavens there are offsets and this comes with the Moon trine the Sun bringing harmony, flow and the support of friends. With the Moon Void of course for much of the day avoid trying to sort things out with bureaucracy. Small gains bring you closer to your overall goal.

Like a star, hallucination, candle, Magical illusion, dewdrop, bubble, Dream, lightning or a cloud—
Know all compounded phenomena to be like this.~ Buddha Shakyamuni

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST USA 10.52am until 3:45am the next day. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Non-distraction

With the Sun square Neptune you will have less energy and focus – but you can draw on self-discipline with Saturn sextile Sun batting away vagueness and distraction. The Moon in Leo also helps, shining a light thus dispelling the fog. Today you have more insight into how you’re own suffering can be transformed into wisdom. With the waning Moon it is time to consolidate and tie down lose ends.

When elderly eyes long for youthful strength There’s the toxic taste of attachment. Once clinging to this physical body Is freed in absolute space, Youth and age have one taste.~Patrul Rinpoche

Theme: From Passionate to Playful

Through the middle of the day, the Moon is in Cancer and opposed to Pluto, which brings intense emotional experiences with others. Then it enters Leo and we become more lighthearted and playful. It is then a good 2 1/2 day period for all forms of creative self-expression. Jupiter bolsters our mood, and our concern for others most of the day. Take advantage of prayer, meditation and any humanitarian opportunities. I like to be playful; I want people to look at what I do and smile. ~ Patrick Cox

The Moon is void of course today from 1:50 pm until 3:10 pm EST. Do not make any big decisions at this time.

Theme: Cautious and Ambitious

Mercury has entered Capricorn, and it will go retrograde at the end of the month. This gives us a more careful approach when thinking and communicating. We are also more ambitious to achieve our goals now. Today there is likely a conflict between our reasoning and our emotions. We may get swept away by subconscious patterns, and our feelings. The best result is to integrate the head and heart and perhaps help someone else to do so. Nothing is impossible, the word itself says “I’m possible”! ~ Audrey Hepburn

The Moon is void of course today from 1:15 am until 2:50 am EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Uneven feelings

With the Moon square Jupiter and Neptune – and opposite Venus today – you will feel a little out of sorts. Don’t get too involved with the highs and lows: knowing it’s a passing phase can help. With the Moon trine Saturn you can be task oriented and focus on your ‘to-do’ list. Pick the ones that are boring! Overall, you can re-set your compass today on the bigger picture.

Theme: Courage and Flexibility

With the full Moon in Gemini today there is, quite literally, a rising tide of activity. The passionate planet Mars is heavily involved with the Sun and Moon bringing lots of opportunity to show your strength and courage in the face of challenges -if you can also exercise patience and wisdom, and dilute your reactivity. That’s the challenge! The Sun in Sagittarius and the Moon in Gemini bring a lightness and mobility to the energy today that can transform heated encounters into lighter adventuresome moments.

There is a way out of every box, a solution to every puzzle; it’s just a matter of finding it...~Jean-luc Picard

Theme: Moving forward

With the Moon moving into Gemini today speed of communications and and short journeys increase. Encounters with sisters and brothers are more prominent. There is always a light and dark twin with Gemini. Which will it be today? The planet of communication, Mercury, moves into Capricorn reinforcing practical activity and quite literally constructive communications. Capricorn has a dry wit that often comes out of left field.

I have to be seen to be believed.~Queen Elizabeth II

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 2.02pm and 3:49pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Uncoiling tension

A situation presents itself in which you feel you have little room to move. You have a choice in the moment to resist or let go. Letting go brings opportunity and self-discipline provides an alternative way to respond. Favorable planetary aspects indicate that a personal connection can unexpectedly help you – and right now your long-term goals have more chance of success. You are more impressionable and sensitive so being with trusted friends is helpful. Avoid making big financial decisions at this time.

There is not past, no future; everything flows in an eternal present.~James Joyce
