Following an opposition with
Uranus on Friday morning (8:53 AM) the Moon crossed over into Void
status and stayed there all day. Meanwhile, Venus was quite busy with
her conjunction to Pluto (6:47 AM) and square to Jupiter (8:46 AM).
At 3:02 AM this morning, the
Moon clicked into Scorpio and now begins darkening very quickly. Our
New Moon in Sagittarius commences her fresh cycle on Tuesday morning
at 7:19 AM EST at 7 SAGITTARIUS 43.
The Sabian Symbols for this
Lunar Event read as follows:
SUN AND MOON AT 8
SAGITTARIUS: In the cauldron of the universe the metals are
forming. Irresistible determination to be. Infinite capacity for
hard work. Crystallization of purpose and will out of experience.
JUPITER AT 17 LIBRA: Retired
sea captain in uniform watches ships sail away. Vicarious or
mellow participation in life. Transfer of activity from physical to
mental; or self-involvement in the past.
Until then, though, the Moon
is purging, releasing, clearing, wrapping up and absolving her
current phase. Early this morning, Mercury is inflamed due a fiery
trine with Uranus at 8:38 AM. Minds and mouths are busy and without
filter. For some, this can equate to symptoms equivalent of those
found in ADHD. At it's highest, it's supports straight truthful
verbal discourse. Rapid fire swapping and sharing of ideas and
inspiration. There is certainly room for brilliance to wax in. I'll
tell you, though, in order to mete out this energy effectively, you
must remain cool and grounded. Once the adrenaline starts surging or
once your body is polluted with chemicals, this becomes harder to
manage. Scorpio Moon feels incredibly deeply. And, holds a lot very
close to her chest. However, with Mercury in this kind of condition,
it's as if you have this big puffed up balloon of thoughts and ideas
which we may try to keep to ourselves but Uranus provides the “poke”
that sends that puffed up balloon sailing and expelling everything it
previous had pent up. Can be good for clearing the air and finally
being able to find the words to express how you feel. Or...someone's
rapid fire and thoughtless mouth could really send you toward more
negative feelings. It all depends. Of course, it doesn't help matters
much that just prior to the fire trine, Mercury perfects in square to
Chiron (3:22 AM). Triggering. Also, something that can pop that ever
building balloon.
For best results, again,
grounding and attempts at NOT adding more angst to the situation
(lowering intake of caffeine, stimulants and reducing your risk of
over stimulation due to media intake and the like) are paramount. IF
you can do that, then this aspect plays out much more smoothly.
If nothing else, today is
wonderful for detoxification and clearance efforts for more than one
reason. First, this is what waning moons are for. Second, Scorpio
Moon greatly benefits from it and can be quite stellar at doing so.
Either way, there is a chance at pressure release. It's like letting
the air out of a fully inflated balloon all at once and watching it
sail wildly all around the room until everything is expelled. It can
bring relief. But, unchecked it can also bring hurt feelings and
spewing off the cuff with things you don't really mean. Those latter
possibilities decrease if you can maintain an air of optimism, future
mindedness and keep the intention of clearing the air and having
truthful and open discussions instead of just mindlessly shooting off
your mouth. Yes. Mindfulness is very important here. Thinking
independently is also greatly accentuated as well as pulling folks
together under the umbrella of a common social and/or philosophical
cause. Words, thoughts AND emotions matter today. Make sure you are
well tuned into yours. What needs to be avoided is the potential for
mindless group think. It would be really easy to be whipped up in a
frenzy and it would be really easy for someone else to also do this
in a not so great way. But, as the negative exists so does the
positive. As much as the potential for a negative mob mentality
exists, so does the potential for positive and liberating movements.
Does that make sense? We can come together due fears and shadows and
loose our collective minds. Or, we can come together over things we
are deeply concerned about and make sincere unifying progress while
opening the door wide to collaboration and fostering of new
solutions. Both potentials exist. The power of your choice as to how
to use it is what matters. Most likely the truth of what you've been
holding inside you is likely to come out for better or worse. Which,
in a sideways manner, makes today wonderful for observation if you
are curious about the truth of who you are dealing with.
Remember, the sign of
Scorpio is bent on extremes. It can go really, really good. Or
really, really bad. Many will forget the middle ground. But, Jupiter
in Libra BEGS us to remember.
Either way, the events of
today are likely to wear us out. At 9:48 PM the Moon trines Neptune
and we are ready for retreat, quenching of dry throats and perhaps a
little bit of fantasy by way of escape. We've heard enough. Said
enough. Now all that rests and stirs in the emotional/intuitive body.
It's a busy day overall. The
chance for unsettled weather is high both in the external world and
internal world. We will be ready to shut the door on it all by
nightfall.

This morning we wake up to
ambiguity as the Moon in Scorpio squares off with Mars in Aquarius at
6:24 AM. It's like a clash of ice with very hot water. At the right
temperatures, that can be explosive. A veritable shock to both
systems (ice and heat). Done gently though and eventually the whole
mixture reaches a common and more comfortable temperature.
When Scorpio and Aquarius
bump heads, it's typically a fight over logic versus the emotional.
And, that's a lot how this square plays out. To ease the tension
between the two, balance logic against emotional awareness. Know that
some things just don't make sense. Realize some “why's” don't
have answers. Realize that how you feel DOES directly affect what you
do. And, then, look for a commonality that the two can share. Give
them a common cause to fight or stand up for. Find the fulcrum, the
common ground, instead of dwelling on the impasse.
Around midday the Scorpio
Moon gets much more comfortable due to tandem sextiles to Pluto
(11:09 AM) and Venus (4:49 PM) in Capricorn. This brings depth and
structure to the emotional body which allows it to settle
significantly. It helps to know what is true priority in your life.
What is really important. What it is that supports you and reliably
feeds you back as much energy as you put in. What is WORTH it, in
other words. Deeply expressed gratitude fits well here as well as
leaning into tried, true and trustworthy connections.
The Sun and Moon both meet
up with Uranus by minor aspect throughout the day. So there can be a
little twitching. Unusual or awkward social interactions. A lingering
anxious feel. But effort given over to finding what is true and
stable is well spent and brings a nice sense of grounding and ease to
the day.
At 8:56 PM the Moon finds
Chiron by trine and reaches Void status. This is very quiet and
following the interaction between the Moon, Pluto and Venus can lead
us to delving into effective coping mechanisms in an effort to heal
our aching souls.
The Moon remains Void for
most of Monday. She enters Sagittarius at 3:46 PM tomorrow.
