When I first started looking
at this week, I thought, “If we can just get through Monday.”
However, upon further inspection, I've discovered...aaaah, the week
is not exactly how it appears to be. This is due Mercury. One word of
advice with that...don't forget Mercury is a trickster as well as an
informer. We are in the season of Gemini. The last legs, so to speak.
Mercury, in his home territory, makes some interesting aspects as the
Sun in Gemini waxes toward an opposition with Saturn at the end of
the week. Our abilities to reason, communicate, listen and learn are
tested most assuredly. If you prefer silence, might I suggest some
noise canceling headphones because that kind of thing is going to
quite inaccessible through the most of this week. While Mars is in
Cancer, our ability to produce answers to the condition of the Moon
as do our desires. The suggestion with that is to mix the energy
coming from our current Moon effectively with the energies of your
own Moon while taking time to also delve into self-care and down
time. We do have breaks that allow for such. However, it isn't so
much “what to do or how to do it” that is at issue this week even
with Mars said to be “ill placed” in Cancer. It's the brain that
is mostly at issue.
This morning the Moon
remains in Capricorn. Her last major aspect waxes in at 2:46 PM by
way of a square to Uranus. This is followed by a sextile to Chiron at
5:12 PM. The square to Uranus can be anxious making or force a change
in routine upon us brought forth by the unexpected. That, to me, is
rather par for the course for a Monday. For some reason, Monday's
always throw a monkey wrench in my well made plans. However, the Moon
itself has the energy it needs to deal with Uranus effectively by way
of falling under the rule of Saturn. She's able to look at the
unexpected shift in the game plan and accommodate that by adopting
the plan effectively. The main thing is not to get excited. Instead,
deal proactively and effectively with what presents taking time to
ground and respond rather than just react.
Reacting could lead to
shooting one's self in the foot as indicated by the sextile to
Chiron. So, this, we want to avoid. We want to maintain an awareness
of our triggers and control over our response to them. Following the
sextile with Chiron, the Moon enters Void status until shifting into
Aquarius at 7:46 PM. This transition shifts the Mood and also bears
some affect upon our motivation as Mars responds to the same. That
being said, the sign of Cancer and the sign of Aquarius don't
necessarily understand one another easily. Aquarius is cerebral
whereas Cancer has a tendency to be more visceral and instinctual.
Yet the “drying out” brought forth by the Aquarius Moon who will
make windy trines with the Sun and Mercury in Gemini along with
Jupiter in Libra, could lighten the work load to a degree thus
creating more mental work than physical. And that, my friends, is the
general tone of the entire week. Less physical to deal with but much
to contemplate within the mental realm. Feel free to invoke Jedi mind
control at any time here..
Today, as the Moon shifts
from Capricorn to Aquarius, we become less prone to physical
production and more concerned with socialization, conversing and
activities that don't produce sweat. I don't know if you've noticed,
but Aquarius is not a sign that necessarily likes to get sweaty. So,
under the Aqua Moon we are the beach children in white linens. More
refined than dirty. More hands off than hands on. Today is good for
getting off to a gritty start on projects near completion while
saving the more dainty finishing touches for the Aquarius or Pisces
Moon. However, definitely leave room and energy to effectively deal
with the unexpected as, along with Monday,...it is likely to come.

This morning the Moon in
Aquarius passes by Mars (7:18 AM) by inconjunct then squares off with
Venus in Taurus (10:08 AM). So, early in the morning there is a
gut-check in regard to motivations. But, later in the morning, there
is a square off between want and need between our fixed signs of
Taurus and Aquarius. The latter reminds me of a group of workmates or
pals who want to go out to lunch together but can't decide where to
go...which drives me absolutely nuts, to be honest with you. “Where
do you want to go? What do you like?”...”It doesn't matter to me.
Wherever you guys want to go for whatever you guys like is fine.”
Sweet mother of mercy..don't over-complicate it. The goal is food and
socialization ffs, don't make it hard. And, that is the typical
impasse that Taurus and Aquarius meet with. Aquarius can over-think
while Taurus is wonderfully simplistic. When in doubt, go for
something you've not tried before and keep it simple. Who knows, you
might like the new thing.
The rest of the day falls
under this “keep it light, simple and clean” air. Meanwhile,
chatter and socialization in general increases as Mercury waxes into
trine with Jupiter in Libra. This does not perfect until tomorrow.
However, the increase in verbal tempo and the call to air gossip and
grievance will surely begin to be noticeable today.
The winds start picking up
steam as tongues wag. That's going to be the punctuated feel of our
evening and tomorrow. Breezy. Social. Chatty...not that you should
necessarily believe everything you hear. Just that there will be
plenty to hear. The main thing to remember throughout the course of
this uptick in verbal and cerebral energy is to remain observant
while noting what you hear and see but not necessarily reacting to it
yet. Under this Aquarius Moon, it's a good idea to treat this uptick
as a social experiment...watch how folks respond and to what in an
effort to get a handle on how this works from a detached perspective.
From that pose, you could actually learn a great deal. This is mainly
due the fact that some of it will be outright misconstrued and
conflated as Jupiter, though now direct, remains inconjunct Neptune.
Mercury will leave his trine with Jupiter and move immediately into a
square with the Sea God causing the mental/cerebral to fog
considerably and packing misunderstandings, lies and miscommunication
in with it. Then, following that mess, the Sun opposes Saturn and our
ability to discern what is true and solid will be tested. Take
nothing at face value and be mindful of what news or gossip you
spread. Jupiter will leave his inconjunct with Neptune and move back
into square with Pluto from here. So, some information may be spread
with subservient intent. Don't fall for it sweet pea. You are smarter
than that.
The cerebral tides do shift
before the night goes completely out. Mercury meets Neptune by square
at 11:30 just barely following the Moon's entrance into this Air
trine between Mercury and Jupiter. This could literally translate to
stormy weather patterns but certainly works to obscure information,
as well. The key in that being the higher expression of our
transiting South Node which is a bit of observant detachment and a
concern for overall social issue well-being. Then, standing on those
talents to reach toward the North Node...how does it (or does it)
apply to you? What is your role in this sea of the collective and
what kind of personal character are you trying to create? We use the
info we gather here toward that end instead of mindlessly following
the other lemmings off a cliff or just being reactionary.

This morning we wake up to
the aftermath of last night's veritable electrical storm and
potential information overload. The rest of the day has the Moon
waxing into trine with the Sun in Gemini and sextile with Saturn in
Sagittarius. This is our chance to talk it out and get the facts
straight. To put the truth of what we've learned into proper
perspective and employment. It's still rather windy but windy with a
point and an agenda. We want to be able to use what we've learned.
And, if it is NOT of use to us, it should be disregarded as such.
It's likely that any
manipulations of the facts that occurred under Mercury/Neptune begins
to come to light. We learn which speakers we can trust and which
one's are just out to misconstrue the truth in favor of their own
agenda. You are going to want to remember anything you've learned in
that regard. If they were lying or misrepresenting themselves under
Mercury/Neptune then they will try to use that same type of
persuasive and subservient power under Jupiter/Pluto. Note it and
expect more of it in the future from that source. Chances are they
won't change their stripes and become completely beholden to the
truth then either though they will certainly try to keep their grasp
on their righteousness at that time. You, however, can become wise to
it under this sky.
The Moon remains active
through the day until meeting her current ruler, Uranus, by sextile
at 1:40 AM. That moment of the Moon dancing in tandem with her
traditional (Saturn sextile at 7:49 PM) and modern ruler (Uranus)
could very well be where we are logically able to put the pieces of
our recent “chatty affair” puzzle together in an exhilarating
“AHA!” or “Eureka” break through like moment. Yet, the
emotional sphere is due to change again melting the cool detachment
of the Aquarius Moon and thrusting us into the watery sphere of a
Pisces Moon. The Moon is Void following the sextile with Uranus and
remains so until entering Pisces in the morning at 6:18 AM.
Today is good for getting
the facts straight and adding subtle enhancements (due what we've
learned) to personal plans. It's good for writing work especially in
the realm of fiction or for taking in light entertainment venues with
trusted friends you can bounce your ideas off of and receive input
from. Again, it's not sweaty...but it could very well contain a few
left over storms. That being said, there could be a rainbow or two as
well.

Ah, this morning the Moon
plunges the ethereal depths of wallowing, remorse and perhaps a
hangover. The Moon enters Pisces at 6:18 AM with the Sun meeting an
opposition with Saturn just a minute later. So, what is real is
really real and we are called to accountability rather quickly.
The Moon, however, plays
nice with the remainder of the sky before she moves in to form our
Last Quarter on Saturday with Saturn in that mix. Talk about a HUGE
call to flush out what has accumulated but is of no applicable use in
our future. That's what that last quarter will call for.
In the meantime, at 8:33 PM,
the Moon swims with Mars in Cancer by trine. Then, she dips into
pleasure by sextile with Venus in Taurus at 1:09 AM. Daytime is
marked for being a grown up while the evening is set up for grown up
type escapes and pleasures. The Sun in opposition to Saturn is going
to help make things a little more stable, believe it or not...though
we likely won't enjoy the call to responsibility and accountability.
Yet, Saturn is the antidote to too much Neptune..which we certainly
have on tap as the gas giant is stationed to turn retrograde at 3:09
AM...just in time for a lunar conjunction which occurs at 9:11 AM
tomorrow. Yeah, I know that anchor is heavy. But, you are likely
going to want to lash yourself to it as Neptune's energy becomes
increasingly punctuated. That anchorage is what is going to help you
steer through what we have coming in. Work hard during the meat of
the day reserving the night to dip into more personal pleasures.

Thank goodness it's Friday.
For those that drill the Monday through Friday 9-5 or worse racket,
it's been a long week which at times may have felt like two or more
weeks wrapped in one. But, now we are on the last leg of that and
just in time as we drag ourselves toward the weekend. And, it does
feel a lot like dragging in which some may actually give up ship. The
Moon sits on Neptune who just stationed retrograde
overnight...meaning...we are tired, emotional and so not in the mood
for more people and more talk. Maybe we call in sick. Maybe I
wouldn't blame you.
This is so not much of a
productive morning for a variety of reasons. However, the Moon does
wax toward an astutely grounding sextile with Pluto which perfects
juuuust at quitting time (5:21 PM). If we are going to be swimming,
we might as well go deep...though I don't necessarily recommend going
public. Chances are many have heard their fill of the social airs
this week and would prefer a little quiet. Besides, our Pisces Moon
squares off with Mercury (8:30 PM) making the incessant chatter that
much more grating while many are simply just not in the mood. Not
anymore.
Tonight holds potential for
greatly restorative alone time or exploration of deeper desires. Less
talk. More quiet....when that phone call comes in later
tonight...feel free to ignore it. If it's important they will call
back when you are more in a mood to talk. Or not. Who cares...what's
on Netflix? Are we chilling? Cause, yeah...that sounds good. Shut the
door. Turn off the phone. Rest. Recuperate. Ruminate, if you choose.
Tomorrow, the Last Quarter perfects and it's time to clean up the
bullshit that was dumped in this week...and beyond clearing out space
for something new because at this point it all feels rather dusty,
old and tired.
