Theme: From pillar to post

With the Moon conjunct Saturn and Neptune today, in that order, you’ll go from feeling isolated to one with the universe! So it’s just one of those days really. A little unpredictable. Mars and Sun continue to be in good aspect so take the opportunities to complete goals. The Sun is opposite Pluto which can trigger power struggles and fear of loss, but it’s hold is diminishing. The antidote of this struggle is to practice compassion and love for oneself and others.

There is a training in not meditating, a training in naturalness, in letting be.~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Theme: Memory

The Moon moves into Pisces today stirring the hidden and unseen, showing you glimpses of your inner psyche and deeper origins of emotional responses. The full moon has passed and now is the time to reflect and contemplate. Today, there is some jostling with sudden, unexpected events that are resolved by direct action. With Mars in Gemini you can talk through any differences with others with good result.

Many of us hurry along because we do not want to see what is really going on in and around us. We are afraid to let our senses touch the body of suffering or the body of beauty.~Joan Halifax

Theme: Connecting with your inner fire

With the Sun now in the fire sign of Leo it’s a time to pick up your feet, stand tall and believe in yourself. It’s also a time to remember how to play and connect creatively with the world you live in. Children can remind you of the importance of these qualities. The Moon in Aquarius compliments the Sun in Leo, providing you with an inner curiosity that expands your network of friends and encourages you to be innovative.

Don’t take your emotions and yourself too seriously.~Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche

Theme: On the Edge of New Frontiers

The Moon in Aquarius is conjunct Pluto which can bring intense emotional experiences on a mass level. The potential for change is great and even though relationships or circumstances may come to an end, the outcome can prove beneficial by deepening in maturity and commitment through challenges.
There may be some involvement with authorities or people in power, but if your motives are to benefit society and others the results will be rewarding.

“ Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.”
Leo Tolstoy

Theme:  Brilliance and Persistence

Mercury and Uranus can provide you with a very  mentally stimulating and creative day. Thoughts and brilliant ideas tumbling quickly like a waterfall making a great splash but dissipating on impact.
Luckily Pluto and Mars work together to anchor the energy by bringing great willpower and focus to rebuild and reform what is important to you. Energy levels are higher than usual the next few days enabling you to work hard and persistently to achieve your goals.

“ The mind possesses a certain power of knowing. This is not knowledge itself, but illumination or the ability of consciousness that renders knowledge possible.”
Kalu Rinpoche

Theme:  Ho Hum

With the Moon virtually unaspected today you may well be feeling disconnected from your immediate environment and underwhelmed by events. Having been on overwhelm the last few weeks it may feel like whiplash, or just a relief.
Mercury is active and stimulating the Mars/ Uranus conjunction that is now weakening.
Expect to hear news, messages, communications that are surprising and unexpected, but as Mars is weakening as it moves away from Uranus there is less chance of violence or accidents.

“ Mindful observation is the element which nourishes the tree of understanding, compassion and love are the most beautiful flowers.”
Thich Nhat Hanh

The Moon is Void of Course today from 3.58am until 4.14am EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Creating solutions

With the Sun sextile Mars you’re tempted to create problems – but try solving them instead – as you have a reserve of energy to do so. Avoid excess and overdoing things. Rather, conserve your energy for important tasks. The Moon in Sagittarius buoys you up, giving you more optimism. The Sun in Cancer continues to remind us to tend our homes, making them nurturing and supportive places.

Until you realize the correct view, it is very difficult to have true self-confidence. No matter how much one tries to act self-assured, it is only an intellectual patch.~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Theme: Examining the shadow

With Juno conjunct Lilith, the dark moon, it’s a good time to investigate the shadow self in relationships, and turn the light on the hidden recesses of your engagements with others. The Sun square Chiron invites past emotional wounds to be set free through self-honesty. With the Moon opposite Jupiter there is also a light shining on maternal relationships, and being open-hearted.

Shadow owes its birth to light.~John Gay

Theme: Tension and dissolution

The Moon in Scorpio is opposite the conjunction between Uranus and Mars today so this aspect another reminder to be mindful today, and if you’re provoked to ‘unprovoke’ your response. In other words press the pause button. Mars has moved past Uranus so the inherent tension in that aspect is waning. Venus is in Leo inviting us to access our inner dignity and afford the same to others.

Faith is like a lamp and wisdom makes the flame burn bright. Carry this lamp always and in good time the darkness will yield and you will abide in the Light.~Dhammavadaka

Theme: Water element

With the Sun and Moon in the water signs, Cancer and Scorpio respectively, opportunities lie in identifying your feelings so that you are not bound by them. Instead, by acknowledging the feelings you can connect more deeply with yourself and others. Today is the height of the Mars-Uranus connection sobe mindful in your activities, including driving, working with mechanical or technological items, and physical activity.

Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing….The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for frief, for relieve, for misery, for joy.~ Pema Chodron
