Theme: A smoother day

With the Sun trine the moon there is harmony between our purpose and daily routine. With both the Sun and Moon in fire signs there is more enthusiasm and excitement than usual, and likely a ‘leap before you look’ mentality. There is still a lot of purification going on underneath the surface. Now is the ideal time to be propelled towards a new path and process the past barriers that have impeded your progress. In other words, as much as you can, go with the current.

I have shown you the methods that lead to liberation, But you should know that liberation depends upon yourself.~Buddha Shakyamuni

Theme: Woo-woo

If yesterday was cathartic today is a little more woo-woo. With the Moon conjunct Neptune you are likely to be more sensitive to others feelings and realms beyond your own – even if you can’t know for sure what it’s all about. You will experience more fatigue today but with the Sun in Leo there are sources of strength to be found elsewhere. There is still lots of activity going on. Keep consistently delving in to what makes you tick so you don’t trip yourself up.

In horror of death, I took to the mountains—Again and again I meditated on the uncertainty of the hour of death, Capturing the fortress of the deathless unending nature of mind, Now all fear of death is over and done.~Milarepa

Theme: Disciplined communications?

With the Moon conjunct Saturn and opposite Mercury today there is a good chance that you will feel pressure to mind your tongue. In other words mindful speech is a central theme today as you will be both constrained in your communications yet impelled by forces outside your immediate control to communicate on the spot. With Jupiter at play you’ll reach for the stars and be inspired today, the catch being that Jupiter also creates over-extension and moments of biting off more than we can chew.

Don’t worry, everything is out of control.~Lao Tzu

Theme: Communication connundrums

With Saturn opposite Mercury your discipline around communications, spoken and written, will be getting a good test-drive: nothing off the cuff or in passing will cut the mustard. What you need is to move into ‘really think before you speak’ gear. Your emotions are a bit fractious today as you will again be under pressure to be flexible due to suddenly changing circumstances. Find time to see the expansive possibilities even within constraints. The Moon moves into Pisces later in the day allowing you to feel more in tune with what you’re feeling.

Be firmly concentrated yet loosely relaxed: Here is an essential point for the View.~Machik Labdron

Theme: Heightened Awareness!

With the full moon in Aquarius today emotional energy is magnified but filtered through the cooling air sign of Aquarius. Aquarius is one of the friendliest energies in the zodiac and makes a lot of room for freedom of expression and innovation. You can accomplish a lot today as long as you don’t give into anxiety and over-think things. Be present but not ruminative! With most planets in fixed signs the ‘unbudgeability’ factor is 9 out of 10. If you can’t change a situation you can at least change yourself.

Kathakali dance-drama is like a vast and deep ocean. Some may come to a performance with their hands cupped and only be able to take away what doesn’t slip through their fingers. Others may come with a small vessel, and may be able to drink that : And still others may come with a huge cooking pot and take away much more.~VR Prabhodahnadra Nair

There is a soothing aspect between the Moon, north node and Venus today, providing an opportunity to glide through your activities without too much friction.

Theme: Patience

With the Moon square Saturn and Mars there will be ample opportunities for reactivity. In other words your buttons are bound to be pressed, or visa versa. See if you can find some space between reaction and action. You’ll be grateful if you do. Luckily for all of us the Moon moves out of this aspect, and the day is illuminating overall. Mercury moves into Virgo today bringing a sharper edge to inquiry, and communications. The small details are revealing.

Patience and shuffle the cards.~Don Quixote
