Theme: Attention to details

Mars moves into Virgo today bringing the breeze of efficiency with it. It’s a less reactive placement for Mars with more consideration before action and also more attention to details, sometimes overly so. The Moon is waning in Pisces so bringing to a close the last month’s cycle. The waning moon ushers in a phase of completion. It’s a good time to finish the unfinished. There are good aspects to the Moon today for relationships and communication in all its forms aka text, voicemail, talking and even under-appreciated handwriting.

Theme: Aftermath

With the Moon now passed the conjunction with Pluto in Aquarius it’s now time to examine the fall-out of this difficult aspect where feelings run untrammelled and reactivity causes chaos. Pluto at a higher level embodies the Great Mother, so combined with the Moon it can also be overly protective, leading to unpredictable consequences. The Moon has now moved into the more compassionate sign of Pisces which gives time for pause and reflection. It’s never too late to stop habitually reacting.

Though one might have recognized the awakened state, thoughts will still inflict harm unless one understands how to free them.~Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

The Moon is Void of Course between 1.31pm and 2.09pm. Avoid signing contracts during this time. Instead, take an hour of reflection and contemplation.

Theme: Practicalities

The Moon is in Capricorn: long-term planning to achieve your goals is easier to do at this time, and you’re more likely to calendarize accordingly. The Moon is also opposite Mercury and trine Venus: think before you speak; coming from a place of compassion steers conversations in the best possible direction. Notwithstanding communication glitches, with the help of Venus, you are able to see the lighter side of things and experience gratitude.

The starting point, the first step through the door to Dharma practice, is the understanding that life is impermanent, that our time is running out.~ Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Theme: Concentration

The Sun is square Mercury providing opportunities for you to get organized and attend to details you might normally ignore or put off. Communications with others prove challenging at this time so focusing on your own back yard is a more productive area. With Saturn and Neptune still in conjunction avoid succumbing to negative voices, within and without. Instead focus on your inner spiritual resources to antidote negative forces, and contemplate how you can be of benefit to others.

Hope is being able to see the light despite all of the darkness.~Desmond Tutu

Theme: Exploration

The Moon has moved into Sagittarius, the sign of adventure, whether it’s adventuring in the natural environment or wrestling with ideas. However, don’t over do it! The Moon is opposite the Sun today inviting you to not react, and let go frustrations. Instead take time to hydrate and self-care. You have the chance to put the past behind you and find an extra boost of energy during the day.

One doesn’t discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore.~Andre Gide

Theme: Remembering

The nature of communication is becoming more grounded after a ‘zippity doo dah’ ride with Jupiter conjunct Mercury. Mercury has moved into the sign of Cancer bringing a focus on connections with family and the past. It also encourages imagination, empathy and memory retention. Conversely there is heightened sensitivity to criticism. With the Moon trine the Saturn/Neptune conjunction there are opportunities for establishing new habits and rituals – and finding some spaciousness to do so.

“All sentient beings are equal.” That means you have to get rid of cultural, racial, religious, gender, even species bias. All sentient beings are equal. What could be a more exciting and dynamic process than that?~Her Eminence Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Opportunities

The Sun is trine the Moon today presenting more opportunities than usual, or at least a smoother path to your destination. Enjoy Gemini moments: be curious, communicative and responsive to any news and offers that come your way. However, with Saturn remaining in conjunction with Neptune get a second set of eyes on any contracts you plan to sign.

If you do not try to catch the Self-mind within, What good is it to catch prey outside?~ Milarepa

Theme: Finding the middle ground

The Moon moves into Libra today steering us towards equilibrium – but the challenge remains to find the right balance. Goldilocks was definitely a Libran – seeking to find the right kind of bed to sleep on – not too hard, not too soft: decisions decisions! But Libran energy is also about socializing and connecting with others – especially one to one. Today the dampers are a little closed on Libran flow with Saturn opposing the Moon bringing feelings of frustration to the fore. Focus instead on how you can better fulfill your responsibilities. Saturn is always about cause and effect so putting energy in produces results.

The Moon is Void of Course between 7.11am and 9.38am. Avoid signing major contracts during this time. Find space to contemplate and reflect.

Theme: Old acquaintances

The Moon conjunct the south node brings the past into the present including meetings with significant contacts from your past. Venus conjunct Chiron provides you with opportunities to explore what limits you in feeling connected to others. Neptune sits between Saturn and Ceres showing how limitations are not limiting when it comes to being generous towards others.

Theme: Attention to details

The Moon in Virgo enables your actions to focus on small but important achievements, including attention to your personal health and your care of more vulnerable beings including animal friends. The first quarter phase of the moon is a growth period. The Sun in Gemini is approaching Mercury increasing communications with beneficial purpose. It’s a restorative, more optimistic time when good decisions can be made.
