This morning we very well could wake up
with a sense of exuberance simply because it's Friday. The Moon in
Leo is conjunct Jupiter at 9:19 AM. That aspect fills in part of a
bigger picture of the Last Quarter Moon which occurs only an hour
later at 10:17 AM.
In my opinion, Last Quarter Moons are
the least tense of the Moon/Sun squares. Yet, it still heralds the
need for release. What I see coming from this one, with Jupiter
involved, is the potential to embarrass yourself. It's operation is
to shed light upon even more stuff located in our psyche that needs
to be addressed. And, what Jupiter's involvement threatens to do is
publish our shadow tendencies particularly through jest. Someone
tells an offensive joke not expecting it to be offensive and ends up
embarrassing themselves. That's what I see here. But, of course, that
is just one example.
Other examples include an exalting
feeling as a result of all the personal work an individual has been
successful with, a pompous attitude that fosters a sense of greed,
blowing emotional situations out of proportion or, even, stories of
emotional fortitude in the face of dire circumstances.
During the Last Quarter, we are still
releasing in preparation for the new seeds we will plant at the New
Moon in Sagittarius. With Jupiter involved in this Last Quarter, it's
an excellent time to contemplate those future intentions and begin
releasing blocks to those intentions now. Begin fostering a picture
of the future. And, begin laying plans now to make those future
inklings a reality.
Whatever happens, or whatever you
decide, is rectified and solidified as the Moon finds Saturn in
Scorpio by square at 5:04 PM. This can create a sense of seriousness
about the business we see ahead or it can bring about feelings of
depression and pressure. Jupiter and Saturn are now only 4 degrees
apart in square. Work is mounting. And that work could manifest in a
myriad of ways and in different areas of a person's life depending on
what houses the planets are transiting and what other aspects in the
natal chart are involved. At least, by now, we may have an inkling of
where it is we are going. But, still, we realize there is a lot of
elbow grease that needs to be expended in order to get there.
Personal luck and fortune is directly tied to the hardest working
Saturn placement in the zodiac. Any expectation of sitting back on
the sofa waiting for fate to hand you your fortune should be
discarded because it isn't going to happen.
By 9:54 PM, the Moon finds Venus by
square pitting what we want against what we need. One scenario that
comes to mind here is that we need to be ourselves but we want to
obtain emotional intimacy. We could be fearful that we will not be
accepted as we are. Another mild example could be that we indulged
too much under Moon/Jupiter and now we have a belly ache. Or, our
lover is embarrassed because of the big pompous scenario we fostered
earlier in the day. Or, money is tight but we want to treat
ourselves. We may have the perfect art project in mind and, yet, lack
the funds to buy supplies.
Either way it plays out, it comes back
to the call of waning Jupiter to Saturn. Work for it. Make a long
range plan to increase your income if that is what missing. Keep
honing and shaping and aiming toward personal growth so that you can
become a better partner and help build emotional intimacy. Or, keep
doing the personal renovations needed in order to form effective
relationships to begin with.
It is a true day of Leo vs Scorpio.
Self vs the Shadow. Public you versus private, sometimes even hidden
from you, you.
There is potential for this to be a
happy day. But, that all has to do with how you find yourself coming
into it. Tension is not non-existent. How we meet that tension is
dictated by our willingness to engage in personal transformation.
Denial has no place in this sky. It calls for realistic
self-assessment in many areas and it calls for balancing of these
squares in an effort to put them to use instead of simply being
crushed by the pressure. Acceptance of the way things are and a
willingness to work to change our current situation through effort,
planning and hard work are required.
Doesn't really sound happy. I don't
know about you, but I'm just happy that the dust seems to be starting
to settle enough that I can even see the road ahead. That brings
relief in an of itself. I'm willing to work hard but, I'd kind of
like to know what I'm working toward. Those inklings are becoming
more and more clear now. That is a relief in and of itself!
This Last Quarter also heralds the
death of Scorpio season. We will soon be crawling out of the grave
and out of the dark caves and into the warm glow of Sagittarius
season. That, too, should foster a sense of relief.
After the square to Venus, the Moon is
Void until entering service oriented Virgo at 2:09 AM on the 15th.
Neptune stations direct just as the Moon finds him by opposition. So,
we could feel some upticks in Neptune energy today...but, especially
over the weekend. Then, on Sunday, another shift in the atmospheric
energy is felt as Venus steps out of the Underworld and into
Sagittarius. By Monday, we should be well rested and ready to get
down to some serious business as the Sun meets up with Saturn in
Scorpio.
Keep shedding luggage, baggage and
snakeskin. A new journey is coming! It's always best to travel light.
