Theme: Promise

With Venus and Jupiter almost exactly conjunct, and shining even brighter when paired together in the heavens, you can feel more optimistic about humanity and the world today in spite of all the challenges and suffering. To seek beneficial change for yourself and all beings requires setting an intention to be of benefit. Venus and Jupiter embody beneficial change shining a light in even the darkest of places. The Sun and Moon are both in water signs encouraging us to connect with our hearts rather than our head.

You can say that space is totally empty but what space is really like leaves words behind.~Tilopa

Theme: Blessings in unexpected places

There’s an interesting conjunction between Venus and Jupiter, and the asteroids Vesta and Chiron right now. Jupiter and Venus alone are the two planets most likely to bring forward merit and therefore some good fortune. With both planets in Aries, there is a direct experience of both receiving benefit and learning how to deliver benefit to others. The nearby asteroids add a nuanced energy that delivers both healing from a past event, and a certain degree of self-reliance that can set you free.

I don’t think people can start too early to understand that we’re all very interconnected and our suffering is shared by so many others.~Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo

The Moon is void of course between 8.07pm and 9.40pm today so take a rain check during this time. Don’t sign contracts or start anything new.

Theme: Energy to spare

With the Moon conjunct Mars today you have more energy today – and enthusiasm – but avoid pushing your way through people or situations. You are more prone to be reactive while this transit occurs. Today, a strong past memory surfaces that can provide a point of healing for you. With the Sun in Pisces and the Moon in Gemini you can go with the flow more in dealing with challenges. In other words you can move around situations rather than facing situations head on.

Theme: The arc of the Moon

The new Moon gives you more energy and optimism and enables you to re-commit to your goals and set intentions. The Moon, now in its waxing crescent phase, enables you to work on the necessary steps to realize your goals. Today the Moon is close to the asteroid Juno highlighting close partnerships and intimate relationships. Wherever Juno is placed the challenge is to rejoice in the good fortune of those closest to you and cherish them without clinging.

Without trying to create or to stop anything, -just let go and relax. That is meditation. There is no clearer explanation.~Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche

Theme: Being Direct

With the Moon, Jupiter and Venus in Aries there is freedom in being direct and transparent. Your communication style is more focused. Aries energy engages the ego more directly than other signs so analyze the level of self-interest involved in any actions you take. You can spend time being more self-contained today and drawing inspiration from nurturing spaces. You are also more connected today to a spirit of generosity and able to give back.

Until you dig a hole, you plant a tree, you water it and make it survive, you haven’t done a thing. You are just talking.~Wangari Maathai

Theme: Avoidance or not?

As the Moon approaches Neptune you will feel a strong impulse to connect with more subtle energies. It’s a good time to practice meditation and be in a harmonious environment that helps you recognize you are part of a bigger universe. You may also want to avoid your personal suffering by retreating into habits that take you away from difficulties. With Mercury square Uranus communications are unpredictable today.

Every moment of your life provides an opportunity to practice, no matter where you are, or what is happening … let the whole world and all that you encounter within it become the training ground for your mind.~Chamtrul Rinpoche

The Moon is Void of Course between 11:06pm and 12:14am the next day. Avoid starting new projects. Spend this time in contemplation and reflection.

Theme: Immersion

With the Sun and Moon in Pisces you can sink into the feeling realm – but don’t over sink! You can also float on the tides of emotions and still retain a degree of composure. You can tap more easily into feelings of compassion but feelings of overwhelming suffering can cause you to escape from these feelings. What will it be? At the end of the day if you harness your feelings for the goal of being of benefit to others good outcomes will occur.

Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations.~Lao Tzu

Theme: The Getting of Wisdom

There is a silver lining to Saturn conjunct the Sun and that is that you are able to respond wisely to situations based on your life experience. In that sense Saturn is associated with the wisdom that comes with age. Aspects to Mercury provide an opportunity to think skillfully and flexibly about conundrums and barriers. Having a view of the bigger picture is helpful right now.

An hour in the morning before breakfast, is worth two all the rest of the day.~Altmark proverb

Theme: Opportunity

With a harmonious trine between the Moon and Jupiter and a sublime connection between Venus and Neptune you can draw on a well of nourishment that can manifest as opportunity in the outer world and meaningful reflective moments in the inner world. This aspect is also a powerful call to be of benefit to others. Combined with the Moon in Sagittarius there is much room for optimism today- although of course you will have to brave the odd foot in mouth moment.

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.~Arthur Ashe
