Theme: Re-set

With the new moon in Scorpio you can initiate and re-set your plans and projects. There is a partial solar eclipse today so take the time to be mindful, and take time out to meditate. You have more passion and drive. With Venus conjunct the Moon today the Scorpio habit of resistance is more easily transformed into heroic perseverance. A person or event mirrors deeply ingrained habits back to you so you can both face the past and move forward. Seeing the lighter side dissolves the darkness.

Theme: Some wriggle room

With the Moon conjunct Mercury your communication skills and insights are very helpful in dealing with momentarily intractable people and/or problems. Self-discipline also sees you through. With the Sun conjunct Venus in Scorpio there is a new intensity in relationships and a depth of feeling that may surprise you.

Theme: Searching Deeply

The Sun and Venus both enter Scorpio today. Happy Birthday to all who like to live fully and somewhat secretively. Early in the day we are feeling good, but also restless.There is some tension due to 3 150 degree angles, but since Jupiter is tied in with the Sun and Venus, things will work out well. Just be aware that some small adjustments may need to happen as you go through the day. Always go too far, because that’s where you’ll find the truth. ~Albert Camus

Theme: Disputes and Rash Action

Especially in the middle of the day we need to practice patience and compassion with ourselves and others. Besides irritability, we will have difficulty focusing our energy. The Moon remains in Virgo for the majority of the day encouraging organizing our lives and serving others. This is the last day with the Sun and Venus in Libra. We will shift our focus from relationships and beauty towards striving for deep answers and passions, when they enter Scorpio. You must first get along with yourself before you can get along with others. ~ Anthony J DAngelo

The Moon is Void of Course today from 2:19 PM until 9:25 PM EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Breakdown or Change

The Sun and Venus continue to square Pluto for two more days. Can we work with the powerful transformative energy, or will there be breakdowns in our processes? Mars is slowing down and will go retrograde at the end of the month, but Saturn is about go out of retrograde making restrictions more external and powerful. Remember to turn towards spiritual activities when feeling thwarted. One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one’s work is terribly important. ~ Bertrand Russell

Theme: Harmony in relationships

Today there a feeling of being more connected to others. This enables you to smooth trouble spots. With three planets in Libra, peacemaking is on the agenda. And so, is prevarication! It helps to take your time making a decision knowing there will always be pros and cons. The Moon moves into Virgo bringing a focus on health, daily routine and pragmatism.

Knowing the nature of the karma of this rebirth, The wise perform virtuous deeds.~The Buddha

Theme: Tests and challenges

With the Moon forming a T-Square to Saturn and Uranus two things happen – your past catches up with you (Saturn) and a sudden event (Uranus) can set you on your heels momentarily. There is always a silver lining in even the most difficult of circumstances and these events help you re-focus on the power of spontaneity, flexibility and taking responsibility for change.

And while the world is so weighed down with the suffering, we have to add something in this pile. If it’s all we can do, then we can do that. And to add prayers, to take a hold of our minds and purge the war from our minds, to take a hold of our hearts and purge the bigotry from our hearts…~Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

Theme: Celebration

With Venus and the Sun conjoined celebration is in the air and the heart expands. The last few days have provided the opportunity for your compassion for yourself and others to grow. There’s a harmony between yin and yang and a certain verve to your speech. Don’t let wit overtake your common sense!

Great wits and valours, like great states, Do sometimes sink with their own weights.~Samuel Butler

Theme: Take your pick

Your normal routine is likely to be upended a bit. There is a confluence of different kinds of competing energies that require more emotional effort on your part to retain stability. If you feel at cross-purposes you can know in your heart that ultimately you’re okay but today it is what it is. The golden key is to pay attention to your physical and spiritual health today, and retain your humor.

Who believes not only in our globe with its sun and moon, but in other globes with their suns and moons, Who, constructing the house of himself or herself, not for a day but for all time, sees races, eras, dates, generations, The past, the future, dwelling there, like space, inseparable together.~Walt Whitman

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 4.56pm  and 12:45 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: Emotional Override

In the first half of the day it is hard to think and communicate rationally. Accept that emotions are strong in ourselves and others, but will ease as the day moves on. The Sun exactly inconjunct Neptune today can also cloud our minds. Turn towards prayer and meditation to find clarity. We are still in some situations that need change. Can we make graceful changes without a destructive revolution? You must be the change you wish to see in the world. ~ Mahatma Ghandi
