This morning, we wake up
under a still active Libra Moon. Not much is happening other than an
opposition from the Moon to Uranus at 1:42 PM. This can produce an
underlying feeling of anxiety for most of the day. On the worst end,
it could cause friction by way of difference of opinion as Moon in
Libra and Uranus in Aries don't really have much in common. The key
to this is, of course, balance. Maintaining a sense of independence
and freedom of expression within your relationships is important.
Shooting for this balances the polarity of the sky.
Following the opposition
with Uranus, the Moon is Void until entering Scorpio at midnight.

This morning is fairly easy
and relaxed as the Scorpio Moon starts the day with an easy sextile
to Venus in Leo at 10:45 AM. Moods are quiet, gentle and
introspective for the most part. By noon, the mood relaxes even more
and the water flow increases with a trine from the Moon to Neptune at
11:39 PM.
Today is earmarked for going
with the flow and deeply assessing personal desires. The veil of
Neptune waxes in just in time to snuggle us to sleep.

The subdued feeling of
yesterday continues today as the Moon makes gentle aspect to both
Mercury (6:48 AM) and Pluto in Capricorn (8:06 AM). The introspection
deepens due this sexy and intelligent mini-trine. The negative swing
of this, of course, is paranoia. However, the positive is deeply
focused to a fine pin point as if we are gifted temporarily with
X-ray vision able to see problems from the skeleton out.
Tension does find us under
the First Quarter Moon that perfects between the signs of Leo and
Scorpio at 2:22 PM. This is a “keep your secrets to yourself”
type of aspect. Scorpio Moon has been digging around in the closet
and found a few valuable trinkets in there. She doesn't need the
boastful Leo Sun showing her hand before she is ready. As a matter of
fact, blurting secrets before they are due or giving away your game
plan before it's time to execute are downfalls of this energy. Hold
your cards close to your chest for now. I know you might be excited
about your next move; but, shh...put your poker face back on until
the time is just right.
By 7:22 PM Mercury is in a
full blown trine with Pluto in Capricorn. Thoughts run deep and focus
is enhanced. Dig deeply into the details of the task ahead of you.
Many double check their evil plan to take over the world. Curse words
roll from the tongue in long colorful soliloquy...but listen closely,
these are likely muttered softly under one's breath. This isn't an
out loud chattery aspect. It's quiet. The brain spins in depth and
detail. Thoughts are introspective. Folks are hesitant to share
unless in quiet corners with those they trust the best.
By 1:23 AM the mood lightens
just a bit and practicality and a sense of gentle humility enters the
equation as the Moon waxes into sextile with Jupiter in Virgo. Dreams
likely pack rich symbolism throughout the week. Pay attention and jot
down what you remember if you can.
Following a trine with
Chiron at 2:13 AM, the Moon is Void until entering Sagittarius
tomorrow at 1:26 PM.
Thursday, August 11, 2016
This morning the Moon is
Void until early afternoon. We toil and muddle through
dispassionately. Time clicks slowly by.
As the Moon enters
Sagittarius at 1:26 PM, the mood becomes lightened and more animated.
By 9:06 PM the Moon is conjunct Mars. If the night is clear, you may
see the little larger than a quarter of a Moon snuggled up to the
shiny orange planet. With thoughts still running deep with Mercury in
Virgo yet within orb of a trine to Pluto, this aspect could be the
motivational push forward we have been looking for. Emotional
momentum begins here as we desire to move forward with our plans.
It's not that conducive of sleep, though. This could turn into a
burning the midnight oil type of thing. It can be had to settle
Moon/Mars down enough to rest. Plus, the Moon is also waxing into an
uncomfortable square with Venus in Virgo (6:00 AM) who is likely
reminding us that are plans are too broad and we aren't being mindful
enough of the details. We've packed too much to be practical. To
balance this all out, check details and rectify when necessary.
The week has mostly clicked
by with only a few hiccups. However, from tonight forward, the energy
in the sky begins to tighten and intensify. Tomorrow, Jupiter opposes
Chiron. Then on the 13th, Saturn stations direct in
Sagittarius. By the weekend, resources could be stretched tight and a
feeling of loneliness and self-criticism could wax in as Venus
squares Saturn who is vibrating strong as he continues to change
direction.
Jupiter opposite Chiron is
not typically a pretty thing. In my area, I've seen it playing out in
delayed school openings due to various construction issues. Plus,
this summer's flooding (Pisces) in my neck of the woods has resulted
in several schools (Jupiter) being declared unusable total losses
(Chiron). Previous oppositions of the two brought up chemical spills
into our water resources; Ebola and Zika awareness; flooding and
severe weather damage. From Virgo's position, Jupiter has also shone
his spotlight on things like religious and political division,
racism, sexism and all the secret and denied sicknesses of our
collective culture. I expect this event to be no different. The main
thing with this is A) protect yourself by increasing barriers of
protection either physically, emotionally or psychically. B) look for
cause and solution of whatever problems are emerging instead of
attempting to place blame and C) look for the true point...the lesson
you can glean from the potential pain/sickness.

Early this morning, we are
met with the uncomfortable square from the Sagittarius Moon to Venus
in Virgo that reminds us to be practical and mindful of detail. From
here, the Moon moves on to a sobering and grouchy conjunction with
Saturn who is now officially stationed to turn direct. At times, it
could feel as if we are on a journey of many miles while carrying a
load of concrete on our shoulders. The mood is quite heavy and the
path ahead of us feels extraordinarily long due this. Set a realistic
pace and tempo. Try not to put too much pressure to rush on yourself.
Slow and diligent works best.
Just before noon, the solid
ground beneath our feet becomes a little mushy as the Moon squares
off with Neptune in Pisces. The waves rise. Exhaustion likely settles
in and emotionality becomes markedly increased. Sounds a lot like
naptime to me. But, without a chance to rest, many will be fatigued
and sensitive.
All through the day, there
is potential for national or global headlines to include tales of
Chiron in Pisces. We could also see this play out in our personal
lives as pain and sickness we have denied, escaped or ignored falls
under the spotlight of Jupiter as he opposes Chiron at 7:57 PM. Nurse
your sickness. Acknowledge and honor your pain. Step up your
anti-germ combat tactics and shore your boundaries. This might get a
little messy on both a personal and collective level.
Overnight, the Moon in
Sagittarius creates a potentially headache inducing square with
Mercury in Virgo at 1:01 AM. The Moon is waxing to fat, minds are
busy and there is an air of illness about. Sleep and the ability to
rest become more and more elusive.
Saturn officially stations
direct at 4:59 AM on 9 Sagittarius 47.

Initially, this morning
offers a bit of relief as the Moon in Sagittarius waxes into trine
with the Sun in Leo early (7:07 AM). The main problem, though (aside
from the collective likely still dealing with the fall out of
Jupiter/Chiron) is Venus locked in square to stationed and powerful
Saturn in Sagittarius.
The key with this is to lean
into that which is solid. Venus in square to Saturn is not easy but
when used maturely it is wonderfully reliable and stable. There may
not be a lot of fat to trim, but what is present is trustworthy. The
call here is to be resourceful. Look to what you have less than
looking at what you lack. Work to secure what you value. Pay homage
to the simple blessings and deliver gratitude to what is steadfast
and reliable in your life. Be faithful to what matters. And, hold on.
Cherish the tried true and admire antiquity. Know this isn't a day
for extravagant abundance. Loneliness and disappointment could be a
thing as well as a tendency to be overly critical and a little needy.
Balance that out with responsibility, reliability and diligent
patience. Sometimes the best reward is the one that you really have
to work for. This is likely one of those times.
By early afternoon, the Moon
is in a painful and hollow square with Chiron in Pisces (1:19 PM). At
around the same time, though, the Moon also trines Uranus (1:30 PM).
This energy can play off of Venus square Saturn. We feel as if we
cannot get enough and our desires are overlooked or shunned by the
powers that be in the Universe. However, the trine to Uranus can help
us break through and rise above some of that. Lifting us to higher
perspective that can stare down that future road and see how may just
be able to “get there” with a little more grunt and initiative.
However, while Venus square Saturn calls for patience and diligence,
Moon trine Uranus does not. It is not very patient and as a result
can be selfish and impatient at its worst. The key, though, is to
visualize the long haul and use the Uranus trine as inspiration to
keep diligently plugging forward one well intended step at a time.
The step by step initiative
continues as the Moon squares practical and detail oriented Jupiter
in Virgo at 1:38 PM. From here, the Moon is Void and we ploddingly
toil forward the rest of the evening. The Moon reactivates in
Capricorn just after midnight.

This morning, we wake up
under the solid, grounded and responsible Capricorn Moon as Venus
melts under an opposition to Neptune at 1:04 PM. What was so
cumbersome or solid under Venus/Saturn is soggy and questionable
today. Even though we may be emotionally inclined to be productive,
we are quite washed up otherwise. Potentially lazy, sleepy or lacking
ambition.
By 9:15 PM (after a day of
what may have felt like wading through mud already) the Moon meets
Neptune by sextile (9:15 PM) and Venus by trine (10:08 PM). It's time
to give in to this washed out feeling and relax. Don't beat yourself
up for what you didn't accomplish. Sometimes relaxing and restoring
is an important job. And, today is strongly calling you to do that.
Accomplishment doesn't come easy. So, if you managed to bring
something to fruition, acknowledge your accomplishment. But, for now,
lay down your to-do list, turn on the radio and have a drink. Relax.
