This morning, we wake up to Moon in
Aquarius. The emotional waters are held at bay and our emotional
intelligence increases even if ever so slightly.
We will get a chance to “check in” with Mars when he stations tonight. The Moon will be at 9 degrees Aquarius and trining Mars as he turns around.

There are a couple of things that are
definitely worth mentioning today. First, it is the last day of Sun
in Taurus. The Sun will enter Gemini tomorrow at 11 PM EDT. It is
also our last day of Mars Retrograde in Libra! Mars stations direct
at 9 PM tonight at 9 degrees.
We do not have to worry about another
Mars Retrograde period until April 2016 when Mars begins backing up
from Sagittarius to Scorpio.

You know, that's a lot of 9's (at least in this time zone). In
Tarot, 9's signal the final push needed to see something through to
completion. In each nine, there
is a lone figure. The Nine of Cups features an apparently satisfied
cherubic like man happily surrounded by 9 nicely lined up cups. The
Nine of Swords features a lone woman surrounded by swords in a
nightmare-like scene.
The 9 of Pentacles shows a woman surrounded by the fruits of her labor. And, even though the 9 of Wands character is backed by troops, he is spotlighted as being the only one in charge of the decision making in regard to moving forward. The Hermit is card number Nine and he is one of the most solitary figures in Tarot---looking inward for information or perhaps on spiritual retreat from society. Either way, there is a pause in the 9's that gives rise to an opportunity for personal reflection before moving forward.

With the Moon in Aquarius today, we do
have the energy to intelligently introspect and review what has
transpired since Mars turned retrograde. Did you experience role
reversals in your relationships? If so, are you better able to
understand the other person's point of view? For better or worse?
Were you placed in situations where you
had to evaluate or change your methods of engagement in
relationships? Were your ambitions thwarted and you had to change
your course of action? Did you fight with or struggle against trying
to move forward and consistently ended up getting knocked down?
All of these experiences are points
that should bring forth personal reflection upon motives, drives,
aggression vs assertiveness, the places where you procrastinate and
are passive-aggressive, the way we are motivated or detracted by the
actions of others and more. There is ample opportunity to learn from
these Mars Rx encounters. Don't let the struggle occur in vain. Take
away something you can use as we move forward.
I suspect it will be a day of
introversion and contemplation particularly surrounding how to put
your best foot forward in a myriad of situations. Step wisely rather
than impulsively.
