This morning we are likely a
little groggy as the Moon in Sagittarius met Neptune by square
overnight. Mercury in Capricorn is also waxing into aspect (sextile)
with Neptune which is due to perfect around 4:30 PM.
During the meat of the day,
folks are likely to be a bit subdued. Minds wander and drift. Focus
is hard to maintain. Music can definitely set a tempo to work by,
though, if you choose. Time will have a tendency toward weirdness
either feeling as if it is dragging or slipping right by you.
Communication also runs the risk of being confusing, dripping with
sentiment or veiled with outright lies or inaccuracies. Definitely
fact check and/or ask for clarification when necessary. Otherwise,
this aspect is flowy and creative allowing us to bring some ideal
visions into tangible creation and causing us to be quite
artistically inclined by way of music or poetry.
Also, due today's
Mercury/Neptune interaction, it is a good idea to keep your schedule
flexible. Write down important things you need to remember. Stuff may
not happen in neat little time boxes. Flow and flexibility are needed
as well as a solid sense of direction. Master that and you can
accomplish quite a bit within this day.
By 11:37 PM the Moon is in
an uplifting and inspiring trine with Uranus in Aries. This is
quickly followed by a square to Venus in Pisces at 11:57 PM and a
square to Chiron at 1:50 AM. While the trine with Uranus is airy, the
subsequent squares with Venus and Chiron are uncomfortable. It may
not be the best night for a comfortable sleep. Our insides are kind
of busy. Our emotions are astute. However, I do suggest attempting to
get a good night's sleep if at all possible.
Warm baths and refraining
from taking in too much artificial stimulation throughout the day
will help. Taking a few minutes to unwind and enact a little
self-care at the end of the day (foot soaks and massages also fit
well) are highly indicated to help us to rest better.
Before daybreak, the Moon
will sextile Jupiter in Libra (3:40 AM) and conjunct Saturn in
Sagittarius (5:39 AM). This will wake us up on solid ground with a
renewed sense of purpose. On the low end, it can cause depression or
a feeling of “so much to do” which is rather cumbersome. A good
night's rest will help to offset that so we wake up refreshed and
ready to go instead of just dragging ourselves through the day just
to get by.

This morning we wake up
under the Sagittarius Moon just leaving a sobering conjunction with
Saturn (5:39 AM). By Noon, we are dealing with an ambiguous lunar
square to Mars in Pisces. Most of the time, I find the discomfort
factor between Sagittarius and Pisces has to do with volume and
exposure. Loud boisterous noises startle little fishies. Plus,
Sagittarius is much more comfortable in the spotlight for the most
part than Pisces. What this square says to me is though you have big
plans to be such a little fish, there is no need to boast about them.
There is no need to go showing off. There could also be a bit of
confusion that arises here in regard to motivation or how things
should occur in chronological order. Remember, the only part of this
you need to worry about is the very next step. One thing at a time.
From here, the Moon is Void
until entering Capricorn this afternoon (5:44 PM). All the while,
Venus is moving in for a conjunction to Chiron at 1:49 AM. This
conjunction can indeed bring forth tears and a haunting heartache.
However, it can also show you the benefit of becoming aware of and
lovingly addressing the sources of your Chironic pain. Now that you
know where and why it hurts, you can care for it. Love it. Accept it
as part of you and, even, forgive it if you choose. Gentle
acknowledgment of the pain and lovingly addressing and caring for it
is the key. It's OK to hurt. It is not OK to disregard your hurt or
try to bury it, deny it or escape it.
The Moon meets Neptune by
sextile at 2:08 AM. This is a nice aspect to cradle us into sleep.
Rest well.

This morning we wake up to the Moon
leaving her sweet sextile with Neptune and waxing toward a
conjunction with Mercury in Capricorn. This creates a solid format
from which we can operate today. The ground takes form under our
feet. Our schedule lines out just like it is supposed to and our
plans unfold ahead of us in a step by step format. Mind and emotion
are aligned.
This feeling carries us through most of
our day. Then, overnight the Moon begins to swamp up due a
conjunction with Pluto at 4:23 AM. Tomorrow morning may pack a dose
of dread and fear. But, for the most part, today clicks right along.
The Moon is still steadily waning as we
move toward our New Moon in Aquarius. That makes today excellent for
tying up loose ends or bringing existing projects to completion. We
are releasing, clearing out and finishing up in preparation for this
sparkling new start ahead of us.
Do know, though, that tomorrow's lunar
movements begin with Pluto darkening our doorstep and that is
followed with increasing tension from the rest of our sky that
resides in Cardinal. It is certainly do-able but it is pressurized.
Dig deep for integrity and fortitude in an effort to gently push
through. Don't allow tomorrow morning's darkness scare you. You have
plenty of light within to chase it away.
Thursday, January 26, 2017
As I mentioned in
yesterday's write up, today, the Moon is pressurized. We begin before
sunrise with a conjunction to Pluto. This can kick start a sense of
paranoia and dread. Fear or a feeling of impending doom. But, it can
also deliver a certain sense of fortitude and integrity to the
emotional body. Fear becomes fearlessness. Dread becomes a
willingness to roll your sleeves up and get to work. Impending doom
becomes a certain amount of self-empowerment to deal with whatever
the day may bring. Senses are astute and intuition is kicking if
nothing else.
By 10:19 AM our Capricorn
Moon is in square with Uranus in Aries and working on a subsequent
square to Jupiter in Libra which perfects at 2:16 PM. The best way to
wrangle this is to work together in an effort to foster new and
inventive ways to address longer standing problems. The outlet for
this t-square falls in Cancer. Meaning, if you can handle your
emotions and work WITH them instead of trying to shut them out or
damn them up, you will be able to weather this day much more
effectively.
However, there is a sense of
anxiety that can come from lunar interaction with Uranus. Jupiter in
Libra can expand and exacerbate this potential. Use the fortitude
from the lunar conjunction to Pluto to help you gently power through.
Yes, there are obstacles. But, together, we can find solutions as
long as we are not afraid to try and are willing to collaborate.
The day does begin to smooth
out as we get a little deeper in. The Moon finds Venus by gentle
sextile at 3:06 PM. This is followed by a sweet interaction with Mars
overnight (sextile at 2:18 AM). We come in under pressure but leave
the day gracefully. Following the sextile with Mars, the Capricorn
Moon is Void until entering Aquarius at 3:37 AM.

This morning the Moon dances
into lovely Aquarius. She is dark, a mere sliver if not completely
blacked out. This is surely the time to be thinking about what types
of intentions you would like to set for our New Moon which perfects
at 7:08 PM tonight. All planets are direct. The sky is filled with
the hopefulness and promise of the sign of Aquarius. This IS the Moon
that we should use to set long-term or short-term goals in the
interest of creating a better more “together” world.
The only drawback here is
Venus in Pisces is also squaring Saturn in Sagittarius (12:51 PM).
This is not necessarily joyful. But, it is very sturdy and quite
realistic which can actually help us solidify in intention what it is
that we yearn for. Venus in square to Saturn by transit (especially
if you don't have Venus/Saturn interaction in your natal chart) can
feel lonely and restricted. Resources may be low calling us to
increase our abilities at being resourceful and respectful (showing
gratitude) to the resources we do have. Yes, counting your blessings
is much more important here than looking for what you don't have.
This is a mature, solid sense of love and comfort. Beauty all grown
up. The blessing of wisdom and age and patience. It is also boundary
allowing us to wrap current loves up in appreciation and standing on
the solid ground that love has created in support. Yes. It can ache.
But, it can also ache beautifully allowing us to see exactly where
the holes are that love can fill. It can also create ethereal love
manifest by the way of maturity and grace. Furthermore, if we are
acting or setting intentions using the power of hearts by way of
Venus in Pisces, Saturn incorporates that solidly into our path
forward.
Our New Moon dawns at 7:08
PM at 8 Aquarius 15. The Sabian Symbol for the degree of this
lunation reads as follows: In meditation a flag is seen which changes
into an eagle. Here what was previously internalized comes spiraling
outward....blossoming from stasis that relies on a breeze for
movement to movement that monopolizes upon use of the wind. Internal
spirals outward in a blossoming way. Inspiration takes flight. We are
given the power of perspective and a clear view of the horizon
advises us of any impending blocks or dangers.
The ruler of this New Moon,
Uranus, falls on Aries 21: A pugilist flushed with strength enters
the ring. This symbol is illuminated on and off throughout the year.
It denotes the rush of adrenaline that comes prior to engaging in
something big. The secret to working with it this year is to learn to
direct that adrenaline purposefully and non-violently in a way that
enacts positive change by inclusiveness and collaboration. In other
words, this is the year that world understands the power and
abilities found in fighting like a girl. And, you know what? It's
about damn time.
Last week's global marches
showed us exactly what women coming together can do. Anyone there or
observing felt the powerful yet graceful strength of that wave.
Gently. Nobly. Strongly and lovingly ferocious. Don't you ever forget
that day. And, don't let it end with just one day. Let it empower you
to go back home and become involved in your community. I don't care
if it's politics or merely taking a walk through your town to pick up
trash. Create networks. Come together like long time girlfriends do.
Use that power to create positive change. The world is in NO better
hands than those of a strong women who knows the seat of her power
resides in her heart. Her influence through her gentle guiding hand.
The power of her unwavering but gently roaring voice. Know your
power. Use it to seed positive change in the darkest most desperate
corners in the world. It is time. There is plenty that LOVE can do.
Just after midnight, Mars
moves into his home territory of Aries. This kick starts motivation
and inspires engagement. If you felt a sense of drag before, it is
likely going to begin to dissipate now. We are positioned for full
steam ahead.

Speaking of “coming
together” and “collaboration” the only major aspects the Moon
makes today support exactly that notion. The Aquarius Moon sparkles
away aspect free for most of the day. Then, by 6:40 PM she is sextile
Uranus in Aries while also working toward a beautiful light and airy
trine with Jupiter in Libra. This is a lovely set of aspects for a
gathering of friends or meetings in regard to collaborative projects.
At midnight, the Moon sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius and brings
formation and grit to these plans and collaborations. We see exactly
how the world can be affected when individuals come together with a
common, loving, open-minded and hopeful agenda.
This is great for gatherings
of friends. Getting out and enjoying entertainment. Collaboration
efforts as I've mentioned. It feels really good and with Mars now in
Aries we are sooo ready to move forward. Why not do that hand in
hand?
Following the sextile with
Saturn, our Aquarius Moon reaches Void status. She remains Void until
entering the watery world of Pisces tomorrow at 11:11 AM.

This morning, the Moon rests
quietly in Aquarius. But, just beyond the horizon there is a storm
brewing. Mercury is inching toward his official conjunction with
Pluto (3:18 PM) which will also usher him out of his retrograde
shadow. Plus, the tides are due to rise once the Moon enters Pisces.
Now, listen...you may hear
words of forcefulness, words meant to scare you into submission,
words meant to control you. But, the power of Mercury/Pluto here is
also yours instilling you with a sense of fearlessness, tenacity and
fortitude. Solidify your intention for a better more inclusive world
within yourself. Don't let anyone talk you out of being loving by way
of threats. Love is so much stronger than fear.
As the Moon enters the soft
world of Pisces, hearts may melt, eyes may leak and we all become a
bit more sensitive as well as empathic. Any darkness that comes forth
from the Mercury/Pluto conjunction can be offset with an adherence to
an agenda of love and creation. That is going to leak forth from our
gentle emotional systems today. We can cry. We can grieve. But, we
cannot quit.
The Moon continues to drift
and become more and more permeable as the day moves forward and she
waxes toward a conjunction with Neptune in the early morning hours of
our Monday.
That makes today great for
gentle but powerful acts of kindness. If you need to take some alone
time to regain your footing, it's good for that too. It's wonderful
for prayers and for dealing forthright with any fears you may have.
Speak with power, resolve and gentleness. Bear in mind, that in this
kind of movement (the gentle loving push of forward motion), there is
no need for competition. All that is needed is a common sense of
direction backed by purity of heart and intention.
It is also, on the most
mundane level, a good idea to take a few minutes at the end of this
day and prepare for the morning. Things will certainly be watery. We
will be prone to forgetfulness and distraction. Having things all
lined up and pre-readied to go is going to help a great deal.
