This morning we wake up to a large but
waning Aries Moon. Luna entered the sign this morning at 4:34 AM. Her
first aspect waxes in at 12:06 PM, an opposition to Mercury newly in
Libra. This occurs at 4 degrees Cardinal, just past our nodal axis
and BML.
Mercury entered his shadow last Friday.
Emotionally affective information could be received that gives hints
toward what the incoming eclipses may hold. Also, be wary that
information encountered now will likely be re-visited, reviewed and
assessed from the “other side of the fence” before we are done
with it. Pay attention to what you are hearing and the topics of the
conversations you are having. Try not to jump to conclusions, while
realizing dealing with the information at hand may not be a one shot
deal. It's ok to take your time in decision making, right now even if
our Aries Moon may be inclined to do otherwise. A smart warrior is
mindful of his timing anyway.
The big news, of course, is that the
Sun perfects in opposition to Neptune (11:38 PM) today. This can
play out in a million different ways. People may not be as they
originally appear. Identities can be obscured on purpose or our own
judgment could be impaired in the assessment. With Mercury in his
shadow, pay particular attention to emails, phone calls or
correspondence received from folks who may be pretending to be
something they are not. Check identifying information carefully and
with scrutiny.
We could also, ourselves, be working
under cover. Acts of anonymous charity can occur, as well. We may
meet with a bit of confusion about who we are. Or, some could be
suffering from an uptick in seasonal allergies or perhaps a case of
the sniffles or a bit of a stomach flu. If you aren't sick, step up
your defenses in protection. If you are, be sure to get proper rest
and hydration.
The best expression of this energy is
to soften the hard edges and drive of the ego and attempt to foster a
more compassionate and empathic approach to whatever situation we
find ourselves in. Taking a hard stance is not indicated...again,
this may be perplexing to our initiating emotional body. Know that
there is a high probably of being misconstrued, underestimated,
overlooked and maybe even taken advantage of from folks that play
purposely upon empathy in an effort to pursue an alternate agenda.
Folks could be cloaking their true agenda. At the very least, by the
time this energy perfects we could be some pretty tired people.
Physical energy could be drained and some may feel like they are just
floating aimlessly through this day unable to pinpoint any true
direction. Remember, you cannot fist fight Neptune. It's best to
surrender to his waves when they come and follow the flow instead of
fighting in resistance. This week's motto looks to be “Man plans
and the Gods laugh and laugh and laugh.” And, they are laughing
because they know we are putting forth our best efforts to get where
it is we think we need to go; but, they have a few tricks up their
sleeves that we don't know about. That hand will be dealt during the
eclipses and, as a matter of fact, ecliptic happenings could be
occurring as I type this. Ecliptic events have a tendency to happen
on their own time schedule.

Overnight, Venus Rx met up
with Mars by conjunction in Leo (1:04 AM). This aspect holds
throughout the day and brings a re-assessment of personal worth and
value. We could become angry due our past missteps or we could be
catalyzed into action in an effort to obtain what we want. We are
acting upon personal desires. But, with Venus Rx, the actions we take
could be socially awkward.
Assessment of our true
motivations is at an imperative as the Moon squares off with Pluto Rx
at 1:33 AM. But, it's important to remember that all this happens
under the energy of the Sun opposing Neptune. We've spent a lot of
time in self-reassessment under Venus retrograde. Our own sense of
identity can be confused or influenced. Pay particular attention to
dreams and hits from symbolism. There could be valuable information
in each for you.
By the time we wake up, the
Moon is dancing in a Fire trine with Venus (4:25 AM) and Mars (4:37
AM). The energy to move forward is present. But, do so smoothly and
cautiously as we still have some Astrological “funk” going on due
the fact of Sun/Neptune and Mercury in his shadow.
By 12:38 PM, the Moon is
conjunct Uranus and we are BUSY and perhaps emotionally catalyzed
into action. Take some deep breaths and don't allow this itchy energy
to trickle over into impulsiveness. Nervousness and anxiety could be
undeniably present. Triage the situation and keep a cool practical
head just like a well schooled Virgo.
Know that Monday and Tuesday
could feel quite unsettled. We may try to engage only to have those
efforts fall flat. Plus, after the Moon hits her conjunction with
Uranus, she is Void until entering Taurus at 5:03 AM tomorrow.
Starting something new is not so much indicated as working to wipe
the slate clean of unfinished business. When in doubt, clean or
organize something. As without, so within. This can help bring some
order to your feelings of personal chaos.

This morning we wake up to
the Moon in Taurus (5:03 AM) which hasn't been much fun since Venus
flipped retrograde. Comfort is elusive and that just isn't something
that cows look forward to. Plus, Venus Rx is still reeling from her
dance with the Moon and Mars yesterday. What we want could be just
far enough out of reach that we are frustrated. Work to release some
of your attachment to that. Focus on what you have instead of
obsessing about what you don't have. Focusing on self-care and
expressing gratitude helps bring ease to the fact that our Moon's
current ruler is retrograde.
A sense of solidness does
enter this day as lovely and grounding Earth trines shoot through the
sky with the Moon in aspect to Jupiter (1:02 PM), the Sun (10:07 PM)
and Pluto (2:51 AM). Hold yourself on center but steer away from
being overly stubborn and singular minded. Allow yourself to be
restored by both Jupiter and Pluto. Remain practical and put to use
the flexibility brought by the mutable energy of Virgo.
Overall, the day looks
fairly smooth and steadfast especially since we are coming off a
potentially unsettled start to our week. It could be business as
usual and, quite frankly, we may be ready for something like that.
Yet, feelings of satisfaction could still be quite elusive. We could
be a group of grouchy Eeyores even if our feet are solidly on the
ground.
We are in the days of a
waning Moon. We are encouraged to wind things down and wrap them up
instead of starting anything new. That doesn't mean new initiatives
are doomed to fail. That just means if you truly want to tap into the
flow of our current energy you should instead, be focused on letting
go, culmination and wrapping up loose ends. Regardless of what you
find yourself engaged in, enjoy being imbibed with this strongly
grounded energy. But, also refrain from becoming overly stubborn
while realizing you may run into some folks who are. Use this energy
to get down to the nitty gritty details of what you need to do. No
fluff. Just the basics and the core elements of what you require are
at necessity. But, know that some will may be in search of more of
that...greedily grabbing up whatever it is they think they may lack.
For the most part, though, it's a pretty stable day in which quite a
bit could be accomplished.

Yesterday's Earth Trines are
replaced with friction today as the Bull Moon squares off with our
Lion Hearts. This isn't as bloody a battle as the Lion vs the
Scorpion. However it could be indicative of a stalemate or a serious
standoff where neither party is willing to give or negotiate. I see
angry snorts here along with a sense of discomfort. I also see a
chance for frustration and a feeling of being in gridlock. Stalled.
Held back. Blocked. And, that all occurs in our early morning hours
as the Moon squares off with Venus at 5:20 AM and then Mars at 8:25
AM. It could feel as if we are working against ourselves and, you
know what, we could be!
This feeling of
tightness continues through the day as the Moon also waxes toward an
opposition with Saturn which perfects tomorrow morning at 6:21 AM. Do
yourself a favor and don't bloody your head by continually ramming it
in a wall. Alright? Tenacity is one thing. But, sometimes tenacity
runs over into being overly stubborn and comes with an unwillingness
to bend. In some instances, not bending may be a good idea. But, know
when to give the thing up for dead and focus on something else.
Practicality, common sense and holding yourself accountable are
highly indicated under this sky. Expect to trip over block and move
slowly in anticipation of them while never failing to assess your
true intentions and motivations. Get a good handle on the steering
wheel of your life and if you are caught in a dead lock see if you
can find a detour or a more scenic route. Otherwise all you are going
to feel is impatience and frustration.

This morning we wake up to
the Moon in opposition to Saturn (6:21 AM). An aspect like that first
thing in the morning can suck some of the enjoyment out of the fact
that today is the last day of the work week. Lots of folks are
carrying big burdens around on their shoulders and none are likely to
be very happy about it. Just as this aspect perfects, the Moon
reaches Void Status and remains there for about an hour before
re-igniting in Gemini (7:49 AM).
This lunar movement is where
the harder edges become a little softened. We are imbibed with
flexibility and that is of great assistance after the trudging we've
just endured. As a matter of fact as much as we may have cursed the
potential gridlock of yesterday, we may miss some of that stability
as a mutable t-square waxes into our evening hours with a Lunar
square to Jupiter (5:06 PM) and Neptune (10:24 PM). Hard lines
dissolve in light of new perspectives. Ecliptic symptoms
(uncertainty, feeling as if the other shoe is about to drop and
anxiousness) are happening. We are encouraged to get out and shake
the dust of this week off. Lean toward social activities that have
not the first dang thing to do with work. Sagittarian energy is the
missing leg of this mutable energy. Lean into optimism, perspective
adjustments and wisdom while realizing you can't always have all the
answers; because, the questions have a tendency to change. Realize
that even though things can feel uncertain, that means that anything
can happen...even good stuff! Give yourself permission to have fun
while the puzzle pieces take shape.
Things are certainly more
loose and uncertain today. Some could throw in their towel because
they are frustrated with all the starting and stopping and starting
and stopping we experienced through this week. That's alright, it may
be time to let go of what we originally had in mind and, instead, try
a different approach. Or, just take a freaking break, man. It's
Friday. Let the pot simmer and enjoy yourself. Focus is likely to be
a hard thing to foster under this Moon, anyway.
Social activities are
accentuated in our late evening hours as the Moon makes a nice trine
with her current ruler, Mercury in Libra, at midnight. Gather your
people around you and collaborate. Get out of your head a little bit
and chat things over with a trusted friend while attempting to also
keep things light. We've had enough heaviness this week.

This morning we are still
under the influence of the Gemini Moon who is now in the Last Quarter
phase. Luna and the Sun square off in our early morning hours. This
is a call to keep letting go as we remain focused on the details of
what is happening. I'll remind you, the next lunar movement is an
eclipse so be prepared for the unexpected and some potentially hairy
plot twists. Though for the most part, I see windows of opportunity
being opened during these eclipses. Unexpected good is JUST as likely
as unexpected malefic so keep your options open.
Aside from the tension
brought forth from the Sun/Moon square, the rest of the day looks
pretty light and busy. The Moon meets both Venus (9:16 AM) and Mars
(3:28 PM) by sextile. This is great for running errands or just
getting out and about for pure enjoyment purposes.
The Moon also meets Uranus
in Aries by sextile at 7:05 PM which could help us to release some of
our attachment to overly swamping emotional gunk. It's a great day
for trying something new or for seeking out alternative answers to
otherwise stoic questions. Embrace the new and let go of the old
while keeping your mind open to the possibilities. Know, however,
that your ducks will be highly mobile and hard to convince to get in
an orderly row. Leave those ducks alone. They will get in line in due
time.
Meanwhile, the Sun waxes
into a fortifying and restorative trine with Pluto (7:07 PM). Some of
our personal power is restored and, this, my friends is a good thing.
Plus, this is the LAST DAY of Venus Rx. She turns direct overnight at
4:27 AM. If that isn't enough to call you to celebration today, I
don't know what else it would take.
Earmark today for fun
activities. Lay the work load down and stare industrious Virgo in the
face letting her know that today your job is personal enjoyment and,
then, engage in that job with relentless joy. In the U.S., this is a
holiday weekend geared to honor the laborers of this country. That
means all heavy burdened employees are encouraged to take the weekend
and Monday off. The energy in the sky supports this so take advantage
of it.
