Theme: Sensitive and Compassionate

This is a peak day for sensitivity to others, with Sun exactly 60 degrees from the Neptune. We can let go of ego concerns more easily than usual and act with greater compassion. Do not miss this opportunity to pray and meditate with depth and ease as well. For the next several days we are looking for excitement in relationships, and can be unusually impatient. Finally Mars is moving forward again after 2 1/2 months retrograde, which will bring more achievements and also more outward conflict again. One of the most important and central thoughts in Buddhist philosophy is the idea of compassion. The Buddha taught that we must cultivate our lives as a vehicle to be of benefit to all sentient beings. ~ Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: See More Clearly and Play

Mercury is separating once again from the Sun and this gives us more objectivity. The Moon has entered Leo for a few days, enhancing our ability to be playful and creative. The Moon opposes Venus which is mostly a pleasant thing, but watch out for overindulging with food, drink or money. Mars is harmonious with both the Moon and Venus giving us independence and confidence today. We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing. ~ George Bernard Shaw

Theme: Intense Emotions and Conflicts

From mid morning through late in the day we are in for intense encounters with others. Power struggles are likely with those we are close to. After this Moon opposed to Pluto transit passes we can gain new insights. Despite Mercury retrograde, Uranus is stimulating our mind and we will come up with new solutions to old problems. For several days Venus and Mars are in harmony bringing many benefits associated with uniting female and male energies. A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. ~ Solomon

The Moon is void of course today from 5:24 pm until 9:41 pm EST. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Confusing, Exciting and Distant

Mercury Retrograde is peaking, and Mercury conjunct the Sun for 3 days gives us less objectivity than usual. Be prepared for confusion. Our purpose and thinking is excited by Uranus, so we are pleasantly restless. Venus has moved into Aquarius for 3 1/2 weeks which gives us a friendly approach to relationships, but also a coolness and detachment. The Moon in Cancer indicates that we are oriented towards home and family. Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid. ~ Fyodor Dostoevsky

Theme: What will it be in 2023?

As usual there is a mixed bag for the new year. The best news is that the Sun, our purpose and conscious self, and the Moon, our emotions and subconscious self, are in 120 degree harmony. This indicates inner peace and harmony. Neptune conjunct with Juno is in a powerful position, showing the potential for spiritual union and transcendence in our relationships. On the down side there is misguided self-will this year. Can we make the needed adjustments? And finally Mercury is retrograde so expect an unusual amount of miscommunications and confusion. You should always hallow your fart. ~ Todd Funk

Theme: From Action to Comfort

The Moon changes signs just after 12pm (EST) today. Best to get a lot done in the morning and then slow down to smell the flowers in the afternoon. The Moon is “happier” in Taurus than Aries, so we are in for a more emotional secure and comfortable few days. For two more days your way of doing things interferes with the results that you are trying to obtain. The best solution is to slow down and think carefully before acting. Slow down. Happiness is trying to catch you. ~ Anon.

The Moon is void of course today from 7:45 am until 12:10 pm EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: From Mystical to Transformative

The combined energy of Venus, love and beauty, and Mercury, communication and thought, moves from harmony with mystical Neptune to harmony with transformative Pluto, for several days. We are more intense in our relationships, and prone to obsession and control. The same can be said about our communication and thinking. Remember that Mercury is retrograde for 3 weeks, so expect miscommunications and careless mistakes from ourselves and others. I don’t mind if there is a long and tiring journey, as long as the destination is your heart. ~ Anon.

Theme: Freedom

The Moon has joined Saturn in the freedom loving sign, Aquarius, for a few days. We will be friendly but more distant towards others. In the first half of the day we are bolstered by Jupiter’s expansive energy. In the second half we are influenced by Mars, and we have physical energy and leadership qualities. Continue to take advantage of the opportunity to pray and meditate with more clarity than usual. From every mountainside, let freedom ring. ~ Martin Luther King Jr

The Moon is void of course today until 2:15 am EST. Do not make any big decision during this time period.

Theme: Mystical

The Moon joins Mercury and Venus in sextile to Neptune today. The best use of all this energy is prayer, meditation and compassionate action. This also supports imagination, creativity, and escape from reality. At the same time there are 5 celestial energies in Capricorn, which indicates ambition and the ability to start projects in a down to earth way. Jupiter is still expanding our endeavors, but be careful not to over commit. The only thing that is meaningful is to make this life a vehicle by which you can come to benefit beings. ~ Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today from 10:12 pm until 2:15 am the next day EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Imagine and Slow Down

For the next two weeks our imagination is stimulated. We should be able to pursue creative and spiritual goals without loosing touch with mundane reality. We are also able to tune in to and gain insight into others more than usual. Mercury is in the shadow phase now, before going retrograde in 6 days. Already the pace of communication is slowing. Jupiter has entered Aries. For the next 5 months we will find joy and learning through immediate action. The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. ~ The Shadow

The Moon is void of course today until 2:51 am. Do not make any big decisions during that time period.
