Early this morning, the Moon
in Libra squared off with Pluto in Capricorn. Coming off a rather
sedate weekend, this could have caused a bit of panic and even some
nightmares. I feel today may actually feel like a peak in energy due
the Moon's movements as we come upon our Full Moon in Scorpio on
Wednesday night. This is due the fact that the third Mercury/Uranus
conjunction is strongly waxing into play and the Moon will pass by
this catalytic energy by opposition today.

The Moon opposes Mercury at
3:43 PM and moves on to oppose Uranus at 4:48 PM. This is a rather
unsettling energy that could cause disagreements or arguments. The
final conjunction of these two occurs early morning on the 10th
and it can't come soon enough in my opinion. I miss the solid common
sense of Mercury in Taurus. This Mercury/Uranus business is usable
but it's left many in a semi-short circuited state in which some
mental concepts are being made way much more complicated than they
need to be. Plus, it can be nerve wracking and particularly unstable
especially due the fact it's been vibrating in the background for the
last two weeks. Enough, already.
At any rate, today the Moon
passes by the waxing conjunction that can't come to an end soon
enough. It could be upsetting to the Libra Moon who is down with a
good debate but not so much down with rudeness or a lack of decorum.
It's hard to have an intelligent conversation with someone when they
are screaming over you. It's hard to have an debate with someone who
has lost touch with reality or cannot come up off a singular minded
point of view to see the whole picture. All that holds potential for
frustration. The best bet is avoidance of situations or discussions
that could become heated. Save it for a time when folks are a little
more sane and the conversation can be more productive. This is mainly
just a set up for needless drama. I'll gladly take a pass on that.
By 7:00 PM, the Moon
stabilizes in sextile to Saturn in Sagittarius prior to reaching Void
status. This settles things before we retire for the night. The Moon
remains Void until entering Scorpio at 1:02 AM.

The big news today under
this Scorpio Moon is the fact that the Sun in Taurus meets Pluto by
trine. I've been sick for weeks. I'm hoping for some physical
restoration here. I have no doubt I'm not alone in that and am also
fairly sure this transit will be supportive to many. We are looking
at potential restoration of the physical and emotional here as we are
under the influence of so much Pluto. Deeply rooted repairs are
possible. Clearing and stabilizing reconstruction. Traction and grit.
This trine perfects at 2:20
PM at 19 degrees of our Earth signs. Along with tomorrow's final
perfection of Mercury to Uranus, this leads us into our Full Moon in
Scorpio. It looks a lot like a jump start to me in which final pieces
of the puzzle plunk into place and we can move on. I also think there
is quite a bit of potential to move quickly forward following this
Full Moon as Mars will soon enter out of bounds status soon after.
Now, there are downfalls to that. But, we've been dealing with a
somewhat grating “stuck in place” type of astrological energy for
some time. A boost in a forward direction may be a good thing. I'm
kind of looking forward to that. If nothing else, the powerful Earth
trine offers essential grounding as the extended shocks to our system
meet with crescendo.
The Sabian Symbols for this
trine read as follows:
For Pluto moving toward 19
Capricorn: Five-year-old proudly does her mother's marketing. When
I was three or four, I watched my mother as she furiously cleaned
house. As a person with Venus in Virgo, I wanted to help. To the
bathroom I went with a full can of S.O.S. Cleaning Powders. My mother
walked in to the bathroom about midway through my efforts to find me
enclosed in a cloud of bleach dust. After that, she taught me how to
help in a way that I didn't risk gassing myself to death. In this
Symbol, we have a daughter proudly emulating what her mother has
taught her. She's still quite young. Someone who can do marketing at
the tender age of 5 is way ahead of her time. Apparently, she has
good role models who have instilled in her the confidence and
knowledge she needs. With the Moon's ruler falling on this degree,
chances are you have been prepared for what lies ahead as well.
For the Sun moving toward 20
Taurus: Wisps of clouds like wings are streaming across the sky.
(from Dane Rudhyar) exalted state of consciousness; lightness and
breadth of being and understanding. Mystical and ecstatic
self-expansion.
It all looks very
stabilizing to me and I think it will be a welcomed energy. It's a
good day to feel better and to re-root yourself in some common sense
and grounding. This is good for reconnecting to the physical and
grounding while taking time to also regenerate and restore a bit.
Most will be focused on their own agenda today with little left over
for socialization and small talk. Take care of business if you can or
use the rich Earth energy to recapture your grip on simplicity and
reality. We've been shocked and scared and rattled enough. This is
your opportunity to dig in your heels and survive in spite of all
that.
