With the Moon trine Saturn a steady focus and discipline brings results. Avoid pesky people. And try not to be a pesky person yourself. Forbearance is called for. You are emotionally challenged by a request that stretches you beyond your limits. Take a deep breath. Mercury moves into Virgo today bringing a forensic quality to your communications. It’s a good placement for working out the nitty gritty.

A speech comes alive only if it rises from the heart, not if it floats on the lips.~Erasmus

Theme: Expanded horizons

Today, there is harmony between your inner life and outer activity. With Jupiter in aspect to both the Sun and the Moon your viewpoint is opened up, and you can see the horizon more clearly. Good outcomes to challenges occur. The tension is not overdoing it. Relationships offer surprises. The Moon moves into Libra today bringing a focus on beauty, harmony and friendship.

Give with no expectation that you will receive. Give simply for the sake of giving.~The Gyalwang Drukpa

Theme: Setting a different course

With Uranus and Mars conjunct the north node an unexpected re-calibration of your path occurs, one that more closely aligns with your inner purpose. It’s not an easy course to set, because of the unpredictability, but one that will in the long term reap benefits. Pay close attention to your physical well being through patience and mindfulness. There is an emotional depth to you as you seek to find the spiritual meaning and in the universe you live in.

Do not investigate phenomena: investigate the mind.~Padmasambhava

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 6.29pm and 12:06 am 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: Give Peace a Chance

Although Mercury is still involved with the T-square mentioned previously, Moon in Virgo is in a positive aspect to Mars/Uranus. Venus also is in a beneficial aspect to Mars/Uranus which means a softening of feelings and volatile emotions even if communications are still tense. President Xi’s comment “Those who play with fire will perish with fire,” was a perfect display of Friday’s transits, but now that the emotion is taken out of it, we will probably see a more pragmatic approach even if the communication is still threatening.

At times like these it’s important that we calm our minds and be the peace we all seek.

Theme: Some Movement

The T-square from yesterday is still operating, but the Moon has moved into Virgo bringing a more earthy pragmatic approach to emotions. Emotional security comes through analysis and applying definite, concrete outcomes. Serving others will be of key importance in resolution. There is a potential to be paralyzed by self doubt and overanalysis which in turn can lead to feelings of isolation and depression. When possible, act when decisions are made.

This human form is like a precious wish-granting gem; do not hand it to your enemy, hatred.
~Padmansambhava

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST 12.29am and 2.11pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Wild Fires

The intensity of this time, not just today, cannot be understated. There is an ongoing conjunction of Mars, Uranus and the North Node which is affecting all of us globally and most of us personally. These 3 are square to Saturn ongoing also. Today Moon and Mercury are conjunct also and opposing Saturn and square the other 3 to form a double T- square. The Moon in Leo can provide the fire to expressing what we really feel– and due to Saturn– have been holding back. As the frustration has been mounting, Uranus/Mars can bring about sudden outbursts of anger and will definitely bring change, but maybe not what we bargained for. Accidents are highly likely under these transits. Be careful and stay safe.

If you don’t understand how your mind works, you’re going to continue having negative experiences like anger and depression.

~Lama Yeshe

Theme: New start

With the new Moon in Leo you’re all fired up. Energy is more available to start afresh, and you’re more willing to explore and be innovative. You get in touch with your desire to help others more fully. Jupiter goes retrograde inviting your inner life to expand and grow – spiritually and philosophically. Sudden change brings opportunity: tamp down on irritation and grow your flexibility.

I think that I shall never see/ A poem lovely as a tree.~Joyce Kilmer

Theme: Patience in riding the waves out

With Pluto opposite the Moon it’s wise to wait until the predicted moment of tension passes and you unpack the underlying emotional causes that are triggered. Apart from this heavy duty moment there is room for spontaneity today. You have more insights into health issues and a desire to mother and care for others.

Freedom for me is to live with dignity...Manal al-Sharif

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 8.54pm until 2.36am 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: Footsie in Mouth

With the Moon square Jupiter and Mercury square Mars it’s a case of swapping feet to see which communication blunder competes for the winner take all award. With both the Moon and Venus in Cancer sensitivity is heightened. Leo pride makes it hard to apologize for any words said, that no how well meaning, land you in hot water. When all is said and done it might be best not to say anything today. Is that possible?

Speech is but broken light upon the depth Of the unspoken.~George Eliot

Theme: Returning home

With the Moon moving into Cancer you have the opportunity to review what home means to you and find a way to mother yourself. Memories and the past have more of a hold on you. With Venus in Cancer people are sensitive and retain more information. In other words it’s a good placement for remembering and nurturing, but adds complexity to relationships. The Sun in Leo is a good foil for Cancer in encouraging us to tread confidently but more lightly in the world.

My mother is like the bright light in the sky, a doe on the hillsides. She is the morning star, shining even at noon-time. She is precious cornelian, a topaz from Marhaci.~Lu Digira, Sumerian poet

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 4.14am and 1:54pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.
