This morning we wake up to the Moon
still in lovely, smooth Taurus. At 8:35 AM she dances with Mars in
Pisces via sextile. There is a little spark of motivation there. Just
a little. Enough to get us out of bed.
At 10:00 AM, Venus dives from Aquarius
into Pisces. These are her home waters. Born of the sea and exalted
in Pisces, Venus has, in essence, returned home to be reborn.
At 11:56 AM the Moon meets with tension
as it crosses past Mercury by square. Something is said or heard that
unsettles the emotional body. Ask for clarification before drawing a
conclusion. Make sure you heard what you thought you heard. Reflect
it back to the speaker. Did they say what you thought they said? Did
they mean what they said the way you interpreted it? You are going to
want to be clear here because soon, our cow Moon is going to put its
head down and plow forward.
At 12:36 PM the Moon meets Pluto by
sextile. That Ox is ready to plow through whatever is in its way and
she is imbibed with the power to do so. Forbearance. Endurance.
Strength. Not of the physical sort but of the emotional kind. There
is a lot on this Moon's shoulders but she is equipped to carry it
around.
By 2:11 PM, our Moon is in sextile to
Chiron in Pisces. Perhaps her sore shoulder is acting up again. Maybe
she has endured enough and realizes she has reached her limit. I
don't see her being crushed under this weight so much as I see her
throwing it off.
By 9:19 PM the Moon is square Jupiter
and the work of the day has surely ended. It is definitely time for a
break, a slow down, a moment to relax and rest before we jump back
out there and do it again. Our bodies are tired. But our minds are
reeling under a waxing sextile from Mercury in Aquarius to Uranus in
Aries.
Don't you hate that? Your body is worn
the heck out but your mind is wired and running full speed ahead
keeping you from getting the rest you need. This aspect perfects
right at midnight. The best way to prevent mental over-churning is to
steer clear of extra stimulants in the evening hours (skip that
evening cup of coffee or late night soda). Ground. Meditate.
After the square to Jupiter, the Moon
is Void until entering Gemini tomorrow evening at 5:37 PM. We may
escape some of the mind jitters that accompany Mercury/Uranus due
that. But, know it will be back when the Moon trines and sextiles
these two planets on the 29th.
As for today, there may be a point
where you feel like you are bearing the weight of the world on your
shoulders. Know that it is your choice to carry it around all by
yourself. But, just so happens, for a time, you may feel as if you
have the ability to do that. At some point, though, we realize our
humanness and decide to lay the load down and rest. And, rest we
should. The opportunity for that extends through the morning and
evening hours of tomorrow until the lights come back on the Moon.
