Theme: Isolation and Responsibility

There is one more day with the Sun tightly conjunct with Saturn. There is a tendency to feel isolated and to have more responsibility than usual today. There is good news in that Saturn is separating from Neptune, which should help our mood. And we also get a boost from the Sun exalted in Aries for 3 more weeks. Mercury continues in dreamy Pisces. This supports the artist and mystic in all of us. And the Moon moves from homey Cancer to creative Leo in the middle of the day.

… as a human being I have a much larger responsibility towards the whole human family– which indeed we all have. ~H H the Dalai Lama

The Moon is void of course today from 7:41 am until 10:11 am EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Calibrating

As the Sun in Aries pulls away from the Saturn/Neptune conjunction which is also gradually separating, you can review your strategies for moving forward. The sign of Aries bestows enthusiasm and energy for starting or initiating projects. It also gives courage for going where you haven’t gone before. The Moon in Cancer invites you to find a nurturing space so that you can replenish yourself.

Confidence is the most beautiful thing you can possess.~ Sabrina Carpenter

Theme: Light Expansion

The Moon is conjunct Jupiter in Cancer opening up a heart energy of loving energy and compassion. The past can be let go and movement into a more open space of being is possible. Cancerian energy is soft and vital, yet protected by a hard shell of self-protection. It’s a challenge to identify our own self-protective habits and tendencies. Mercury conjunct the north node invites us to align our purpose with what is of most benefit.

Let us become still, take a deep breath and let it out slowly. Again, let us center deep within…to the presence of the absolute.~ HE Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Chat with humans

The Moon is in Gemini so conversation is heightened and communications are easier. Reach out to siblings or friends who occupy that space for you. The Sun is exactly conjunct Saturn. Past endeavors ripen now to your benefit. Steady movement forward and worthwhile efforts are key to improvements. With the Sun and Venus in Aries things are a bit more feisty. Be bold and harness the enthusiasm of this placement.

How beautiful is candor! All faults may be forgiven of him who has perfect candor.~ Walt Whitman

The Moon is Void of Course in Gemini until 6.33am. Avoid signing contracts. Find something heartening to do!

Theme: Integration

The Sun in Aries sits right between Neptune and Saturn acting as a solar bridge between these very different energies that have been co-located with one another for some time. Now is the time to find the answer to the riddle of integrating the lessons of this odd coupling: Saturn (discipline, boundary setting, learning from the past and right action) and Neptune (dissolving the ego boundaries, giving rise to compassion and understanding the interdependent nature of all phenomena).

On personal integrity hangs humanity’s fate. You can deceive others, you can deceive your brain-self, but you can’t deceive your mind-self — for mind deals only in the discovery of truth and the interrelationship of all truths.~Buckminster Fuller

Theme: Spiritual and Secure Emotionally

The Sun continues to be united with Neptune, and now also with Saturn. This is a time of heightened sensitivity to others, and a great day for prayer, meditation, and compassionate action. This is enhanced as Mercury is in Neptune’s sign, Pisces, for 3 more weeks. The effect of Saturn is to add responsibility and a sense of limitation for several days. We have one more day with the Moon in its exalted sign, Taurus, which makes us emotionally stable.

It is within the nature to reveal to yourself the place that is beyond conceptualization… underneath conceptualization… like the crystal under the dust. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Helping Others

The Sun has entered me-first, quick action, Aries, but it is tightly united with Neptune, the planet of ego transcendence, today. The best way to use this super-intuitive energy is to help others. We are especially sensitive to how they are feeling. All spiritual activities are enhanced as well. The potential downside of this transit is that we can feel unable to cope with the world. Daydreaming and creative work are good outlets.

If we really knew the truth of suffering, there would not be one moment that we did not practice with the utmost compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today until 2:36 am EDT. Do not make any major decisions until after this time.

Theme: Movement

The new Moon in Aries signals the beginning of a new cycle of activity and whatever counts as a ‘start up’ be it a small or large project. The Moon is also conjunct Saturn and Venus infusing the day with more self-discipline and a deeper love and enjoyment of life. Mercury goes direct tomorrow so enjoy the last day (for a while at least) of a period of time devoted to misapprehension!

The modalities of awakened doing are acceptance, enjoyment, and enthusiasm.~ Ekhart Tolle

Theme: Endings and beginnings

The Moon is nestled just behind the Sun for much of the day signaling completions and then moves past the sun later in the evening beginning the new moon phase signaling beginnings. The passage of the Moon also signals integration of the inner and outer aspects of our psyche. The Sun is sextile Uranus providing some spark while Venus square Jupiter reminds us not to overdo good things like too much food or the wrong kind of food. Life is a balance.

End, begin, all the same. Big change. Sometimes good, sometimes bad.~Aughra in The Dark Crystal

The Moon is Void of Course in Pisces from 9.23pm EDT until 12:03am the next day.

Theme: Sandwiched

Mars sits between the Sun and the Moon today providing more energy and purpose but also provoking more reactivity and off-the cuff responses. Even though Mars is generally considered a malefic planet everything can be harnessed for good. Likewise Mars provides energy for movement in a beneficial direction if one’s motivation is beneficial. The concentration of planets in the water sign of Pisces continues the immersive nature of your experience right now.

Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.~ WH Auden
