Theme: Theme:  Expansive Deliberation

Jupiter retrogrades today until October 19th, remaining in Pisces until July 28th. This is a very beneficial time for gaining deeper insight into spiritual matters. By turning inward you can better evaluate if you’re living your life according to outer pressures or being guided by inner wisdom.
Use this time for more expansive self-examination and see where you need further illumination in your life.~Compassion and enlightenment can never be separated. Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 6.52 am EST USA until 7.58 am. If you’re in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or signing contracts during this time.

Theme: Concentration is the key

With Moon, Saturn and Mercury forming a Grand Trine in the element of air, today is a good day to apply your mind to some serious study. Your concentration is sharpened and enables you to delve into intractable problems, particularly related to emotions. Patience and diligence are your friends, helping you stay longer on your meditation seat, gaining greater insight. Then consciousness remains stable and unwavering, like the depths of the ocean.~Zhang Rinpoche

Theme:  Peace and harmony save the day

As Mercury stations as it’s about to go direct on the 22nd you might find yourself unable to form a decent sentence, sending an email to the wrong person, forgetting commitments or simply forgetting! But don’t worry, more will be revealed as Mercury goes direct and picks up pace in a few days. With the Moon in Libra today you can easily smooth the waters if any faux-pas has been committed. Your ability to see all sides outweighs any mercurial mistake and you will easily move to a place of great harmony and equanimity. Without being peace, we cannot do anything for peace.~Thich Nhat Hanh

Theme: Go with the flow

With so many planets in mutable signs it’s a time to bend in the breeze and go with the flow. The moon opposite Neptune gives a dreamy quality to the day but also affords opportunities for pause and contemplating the nature of reality. You are better at connecting with others but there is also a tendency to speak without thinking which could cancel out those good connections. Like the streaming river Tsangpo Nothing is still for even a moment.~Milarepa

Theme: Nurturing others

Expressions of generosity and giving back are themes for today. It’s a good time to work in groups to nurture the wider community through innovative schemes that provide the necessities of life whether it’s food, clothing or housing. It can be a simple as getting donations to where they are most needed. Relationships are uplifting but physical energy is lower than usual. The world that we objectify is a mythical and dreamlike existence, but it still has rules.~Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel

Theme: Transforming the load

With Saturn and Uranus in a close square with one another it’s still a time of tension between structure and de-structure – between form and transforming – following a well-worn path or moving into new territory. Normal pathways are disrupted. But today there is some relief with the Moon sextile the Sun providing an inner harmony and strength. The Moon moves into Virgo today bringing a focus on on detail and functional communication. Each and every extraordinary activity is simply having rice.~Eihei Dogen

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 1.27 pm EST USA until 11.07 pm. If you’re in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or signing contracts during this time.

Theme:  Dealing with old wounds 

Now is the time to be receptive to old wounds and traumas in relationships. Are we engaging in co-dependent relationships because we know no other way? Do we have limited narratives on our “brokenness “ and feelings of inadequacies that keep us stuck in negative patterns of relating to others? Take time and explore gently how to move forward and heal old wounds. The first step in dealing with feelings is to recognize each feeling as it arises. The agent that does this is mindfulness.~Thich Nhat Hanh
