Theme: Expansion

With the Moon still in range of Jupiter you continue to have a lot on your plate today and tasks, more or less, gets accomplished. Mercury has moved into Leo firing up conversations. Mercury works best impartially and with its placement in Leo, and opposite Pluto, there is more likelihood of pride, and hidden agendas, causing rifts in communication. The antidote is giving dignity when communicating and aiming for transparency in communication.

Cultivating loving kindness stands as the profound essence of my spiritual path-the very heartbeat of my Dharma.~Namgay Dawa Rinpoche

Theme: Energized with care

Mars is conjunct the Moon in Taurus today which gives you more drive to accomplish but also can trigger outbursts. The good thing about Taurus is that it takes a lot to make this sign mad. Still, be on your guard. Mercury is trine Neptune creating a portal for insights from the unconscious. Dreams may carry more meaning than usual.

As you begin to understand the empty nature of things, your poisons will decrease.~Gyatrul Rinpoche

Theme:  Slowing Down

Moon moves into Taurus bringing emotional stability and appreciation of being in nature. Inner contentment can be found in stillness or meditation.
Saturn in Pisces has just gone retrograde and also brings us back to our inner lives, sometimes by thwarting worldly plans and projects.
Know that the time isn’t right to push forward and relax into non-action.

“There is no ‘way to peace’, there is only peace.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Theme:  Heart Talk

Today should be a sociable and festive day gathering with women that are important in your life and potential for new connections also.
The potential to heal old wounds in friendships may surface. It would be a very beneficial time to be mutually supportive and open to hearing what each has to say.

“ Listen to the wind, it talks.
Listen to the silence, it speaks.
Listen to the heart, it knows.”
Native American Proverb

Theme:  Action!

The Moon moving into Aries brings energy and action. If your health has been impacted recently you should feel vitality start to return and as the Moon pulls away from Neptune over the next couple of days you can start new projects with strength and confidence.
There is a challenge between expression of self and instinctive feelings which is easier to overcome and find your equilibrium, by not pursuing arguments or getting too impatient with the task at hand.

Theme: Tapping into the heart

With the Moon in Pisces there is an opportunity to be of genuine service to others, if you can tap into your heart. The sign of Pisces allows us to connect with our heart, which in turn allows us to be motivated by compassion. The downside of Pisces is if we shut down our heart and take refuge in escapism and avoiding suffering, including grief, at all costs. Saturn is in Pisces at present which creates difficulties with boundaries and structure.

When we change the way we communicate, we change society.~ Clay Shirky
