Theme: Rolling along

With good aspects to the Moon today communications are smoother, and energy and optimism is greater. The Moon in Aquarius is great for friendships, catching up with others, and working in community together. However, it is harder to connect with your feelings with this placement so pause to find what your heart speaks. With the Sun in Virgo health and healing are on the agenda, including finding better ways to self-care.

Health is the greatest gift, contentment is the greatest wealth, a trusted friend is the best relative, Nirvana is the greatest bliss.~Dhammapada

Theme: Larger than life

With the Moon in aspect to the three transpersonal plates of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto the themes that play out today speak to larger psychological concerns including how you deal with sudden change, innovation, transformation, spirituality and events outside your control. Each of these planets invites us to think of others, and in so doing transform our ego-clinging into action on behalf of all beings.

The great should never be supplanted by the less, And it is others’ good that is the highest goal.~Shantideva

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 5.43pm and 11.41pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Reigning in your impulses

The passage of the Moon provokes your speech and any tendency to over-do things, or over-compensate today. Try to reign in yourself if you can. There are good things happening, including the beginning of a new productive phase, so try not to derail the good things that are happening with your capacity for tripping yourself up. With the Moon and Sun in earth signs you can get a lot done step-by-step.

Excellent to have wise, noble friends. One should know a few things. It helps your pain. But one should understand how pain arises, how it ceases.~Theri Kisa-Gotami

Theme: A Warm Moon

With the Moon moved into Sagittarius it is easy to feel warmth and generosity of spirit towards friends and strangers. It’s a time of talking and connecting through social media and with Mars aspected by both Mercury and Moon emotions and intellectual exchanges will be energized. Hard work is not out of the question and when joined with others can bring a sense of belonging. Be careful of any impulsive actions as there is a potential for accidents.

A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.

Theme: Manifesting the Vision

A time of optimism and envisioning plans for the future. Passionate feelings are aroused and a wish for deeper connections with friends. It is a time of enjoying close social contacts with friends, potentially overindulging in food and other substances. It is easy to feel empathy and sensitivity toward others you see suffering. Focus is turned toward spiritual interests for some.

If you are working on something exciting that you really care about you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you.

~Steve Jobs

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST 1.22pm and 6.39pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: A few of those moments

Expect to feel pressured tomorrow, somewhat like being between a rock and a hard place, as Saturn and Uranus put the squeeze on your lunar nature, daily routine and emotions. Something always has to give in situations like this: identify where the build up of energy can be transferred. And with Jupiter and the Sun on your side stability and fortitude dispels difficulties. Moreover, with the Moon in Scorpio you have emotional resilience and strength.

To know what you did in the past, look at your present body, To know where you will go in future, look at your present actions.~Anonymous

Theme: Quick thinking

With Mercury trine Mars you can be decisive and authentic in your communications. You are still feeling feisty and pushing your boundaries. With Venus opposite Saturn you can reign in your impulses. Patience and self-discipline are antidotes that are aided by the Moon in good aspect to Saturn. Effort pays off, especially during this time with the Sun in Virgo.

If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough.~Ellen Johnson Sirleaf

Theme: Thinking it through

With the Moon conjunct Mercury in Libra ideas flow freely and help with comunications in difficult relationships. You are able to see both perspectives more easily. You still remain frustrated and you have to watch your speech. Letting some time lapse before responding to a situation can prove helpful. You want to help change the world today; change comes with the first steps in realizing the vision.

What makes an action positive or negative? Not how it looks, not whether it is big or small, but it is the positive or negative motivation that is behind it.~Patrul Rinpoche

Theme: May the Force be With You

Moon and Venus are prominent today bringing a variety of emotions and feelings. Passion and intensity are the flavor of the day, bringing exciting changes in your personal life. At the same time there is a deeply personal and internal commitment to love that is experienced. Uranus as usual can bring surprising change in unexpected ways, but overall there is a deep wish for that change in your personal life.

When your passion and your purpose are greater than your fears and excuses, you will find a way. ~Anonymous
