We all have an assignment today. The Moon is marching into efficient Virgo, driving us to be our most capable selves, but the real work arrives when the Sun conjoins Saturn in Pisces at 6:29 am EDT. This once-a-year angle is forcing us to examine how we must grow and evolve in order to become the best version of ourselves. We can make it happen by following our intuition. The Moon closes things out with a quincunx to Pluto, inspiring further transformation.
Our minds are aligned with our hearts for some important recalibration. The Moon in Leo is trining Chiron in Aries to support active healing, though we may be tempted to act out or let our freak flag fly when the Moon then squares rebel Uranus in Taurus. Mercury, also in Aries, will conjoin retrograde Venus at 6:55 pm EDT, which can help us rethink our values and clarify how and why we express affection. Match an open mind with an open heart.
There is an undeniable intensity to the day. The Moon is spinning through expressive Leo, giving us all an extra dose of courage, but the temptation to go overboard could become too much to handle once the Moon opposes alchemical Pluto in considerate Aquarius at 12:48 am EDT. Fortunately, the Moon will then slide into two easy trines, first with Mercury, then Venus. Even if things begin on an extreme note, we should be able to resolve any issues without too much effort.
What starts as a quiet and intuitive day will go out with a bang! The Moon begins in sensitive Cancer, where it will square sore Chiron before trining mystical Neptune, inspiring us to tend to our needs and do what we can to make ourselves feel better about the state of things. We can take on a more active role once the Moon trots into garrulous Leo at 6:59 pm EDT. Luna in Leo will strengthen us all to stand up for ourselves and our desires.
We can make positive progress without getting burnt out in the process. The Sun in Pisces is forming a rare yet harmonious trine to action planet Mars in Cancer at 12:13 am EST, giving our feelings atypical potency and power. The Moon will then conjoin Mars, syncing up their energies in a wonderful way that will assist us as we align our ambitions with our desires. Lastly, a caring lunar trine to the Sun wraps everything up on an open-hearted note.
Our emotions are taking center stage. The Moon in chatty Gemini will first square off mysterious Neptune in Pisces, making it a little difficult to find a balance between our logic and our intuition. The energy will shift, however, when the Moon enters sensitive Cancer at 11:29 am EST, encouraging us to get comfortable with our feelings. A final lunar square to Mercury in fiery Aries will make it almost impossible to stop ourselves from saying whatever is on our minds.
We’ll all want to go against the grain today, even if we don’t start out like that. The Moon is in reliable Taurus, where it will sextile the Sun in dreamy Pisces before turning around to sextile energizer Mars in sensitive Cancer. However, there is a tremor underfoot when the Moon conjoins mover-and-shaker Uranus at 8:56 pm EST. Their alignment emboldens everyone to throw the rulebook out the window! A little shock to the system can be a good thing — within reason.
Swirls of slow and fast energy will usher us through the day ahead. Mercury is bounding into fiery Aries at 4:04 am EST, setting us all up for a wild ride which will have our ideas and words coming fast and loose. Once Luna leaves Aries behind and slips into slow-and-steady Taurus, we should have a chance to stop and smell the roses. Just be wary of their thorns, as the Moon will then square Pluto, making it easy to prick our fingers.
Everything looks a bit blurry right now. The energy is positively off the charts as the Sun in Pisces squares off against can-do Jupiter in Gemini, making us feel like we can do anything — even if that isn’t really the case. It will be difficult to get a clear picture of things when Mercury conjoins Neptune in Pisces at 11:22 am EST, making it almost impossible to know our own minds. The day wraps up with the Moon conjoining Chiron. We can find healing!
Sensitivity can blend smoothly with practicality throughout the day. The dreamy Pisces Moon trines brave Mars in Cancer, encouraging us to speak up on behalf of our emotional needs. Fortunately, we’re probably not asking for anything too unreasonable as the Moon conjoins realistic Saturn at 1:42 pm EST. Luna then moves on to meet flexible Mercury, inspiring us to artfully negotiate between competing priorities. We’re capable of finding the best of all possible worlds without having to worry about it too much!
