Venus conjoined with Moon brings enjoyment through social interaction. Your ability to give and receive is heightened, but as both planets are in Aries you have to temper impulsive energy. Being too assertive may be off putting but overall Sunday should be a very pleasant day.

“ Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.”  Buddha

Theme:  The Rings of Saturn

Saturn’s influence is strong today , bringing a potential for frustration. If you channel your energy into hard and concentrated work it can help to avoid negative emotions.
Viewing expansion and growth through a pragmatic lens, will maintain equilibrium, neither idealistic nor excessively conservative.
Emotional authenticity based on logical morality will assist to maintain non reactivity under difficult circumstances.

Theme:  Stay Mindful

Moon conjuncts Mars and can affect your mood by feeling irritable or acting hastily. There’s always a possibility of accidents with this transit so be alert when driving or cooking. If you remain calm through adversity it’s possible to lead with courage and break through barriers. The word courage comes from the French word “ le coeur “ meaning the heart. Mars is in Pisces which can color action with empathy and compassion.
“. Kindness is a language the deaf can hear and the blind can see.”  Mark Twain

The Moon is void of course today from 1.40am until 7.13am EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period..

Theme:   Optimism

The Moon moves into Sagittarius bringing a sense of freedom. It’s easy to feel enthusiastic with this sign. You may want to hit the road for a couple of days and travel enjoying the spring break.
The Moon being trine the Sun brings a feeling of harmony within oneself, which is much needed after the last few days. Enjoy the renewal of vitality and energy once more.

“. When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.”  Lao Tzu

Theme:    Impermanence

The Moon has moved a few more degrees into Scorpio and opposes Uranus this time. It’s common to have feelings of impulsiveness with a strong desire to break out of daily routine and habits. If you give into these emotions, the outcome may be rather destructive. You may also encounter surprises that are not to your liking.
Watching your mind and not over reacting can be helpful, so that you can make changes that are long lasting and effective. Don’t give into haste.

“ Whatever has the nature of arising has the nature of ceasing.”
Buddha

Theme: Quest for Freedom

Moon is exactly opposite Jupiter around noon which stimulates a drive for personal freedom. Questions may arise about your core values and aspirations in life. As we know Jupiter is in close proximity to Uranus and has been for a few weeks, so this theme is not new but now is front and center. You may be experiencing a deeper evaluation of your values. What  needs to change due to external disruptive events that are affecting everyone at this time ? The big question is: what does freedom mean to you?

“ To thine own self be true.” William Shakespeare

Theme:  Passionate Sensitivities

Passion is intensified with a Moon/ Pluto contact, although largely beneficial it can increase obsessiveness. You may feel it on a personal level or with Pluto in Aquarius the focus may be on a world level. With the Moon opposite Neptune sensitivities will be doubly heightened and may bring confusion and misunderstanding. If you focus and direct your energy on a humanitarian or compassionate level, it will be easier to deal with this transit.

“ As long as the idea of self exists, self will experience other with either attraction or repulsion….. What if all suffering comes from the belief in self nature?”
Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

Theme:  Closeness and Separation

The main focus today is a mixed aspect. On one hand there will be a gathering of close family and friends, with women being the main focus. There is a desire for social contact and with Moon and Venus, the main downside can be extravagance or overindulgence!
On the other hand Venus and Saturn have been in tight aspect for sometime, which can bring a time of separation and sadness from loved ones. The Moon in opposition will accentuate your feelings but overall will draw you closer to friends and family.

“ What barrier is there that love cannot break?”   Mahatma Gandhi

Theme: Not Self but Service

The Moon moves into Virgo today which helps to respond analytically to experiences and emotions. That could be very helpful as Mars in opposition could trigger feelings of irritability and bring about discordant energy.
Using contemplation we can develop patience to deal with situations that could provoke impulsive behavior we could later regret!
We can also channel our energy into serving others, contributing to overcoming self doubt.

“ The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Theme:  Closeness and Nurturing

The maternal and nurturing side of our nature is predominant today as the Moon moves into Cancer and is also in positive aspect to both Venus and Saturn. Venus of course heightens the feminine aspect of the Moon and magnifies our ability to receive and give to others. Saturn stabilizes our emotions and allows us to commit to heartfelt responsibilities. Due to the Piscean influence this occurs not only on a personal level, but a global level engendering inclusive caring for many beings.

“ Our sense of joy is the kind of joy that is born of the mind of compassion, the kind of joy that appears in the mind with the commitment to benefit beings at any cost.”
Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo
