Theme: Stable but Rushed

The Moon is squaring the crowded energy in early Aquarius, particularly in the second half of the day. This will lead to feeling rushed, despite the fact that the Moon moves into Taurus just after mid day. Our emotions are exalted in stable Taurus, so we will have a more secure feeling. But be careful of rash actions and mistakes. Saturn is moving closer to Neptune so remember that things are not as bad as they seem.

Here now is the chance for wholesome deeds, … ~Shantideva

The Moon is void of course until 1:06 pm EST. Do not make any major decisions before then.

Theme: Power

The conglomeration of energy in early Aquarius continues today. The Sun, Mars and Pluto are tightly conjunct, which gives us a powerful opportunity to achieve what we want. We may need a physical outlet to avoid a fight response when we are challenged. This energy is a chance to look deeply into our lives and our goals. Then we can proceed to get what is best for ourselves and others. The Moon squares Jupiter especially in the mid to late day. This bolsters our mood but we should watch out for any tendency to be overbearing.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. ~Mahatma Gandhi

The Moon is void of course today from 4:37 pm until 1:06 pm EST the next day. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Freedom?

With the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto all in early Aquarius, Aquarian ideals such as freedom, equality, and innovation are all important to us now. The problem is that Pluto is in the breakdown phase. So we may feel we are losing our ideals now.The Moon makes a sextile to the Sun and the other Aquarius planets, especially during the middle of the day. This indicates inner ease. However, there is a lot of ambition at the same time.

Only through the development of mutual respect, and in a spirit of truth, can friendship come about. ~H H the Dalai Lama

Theme: So What Else?

The last two days readings are mostly relevant today as well: a tendency to see things worse than they are, intensity in relationships and looking for some excitement. Now the Moon is new at exactly 2:53 pm EST. So this is a good time for new beginnings, as our conscious and subconscious minds are united. There is still a heavy emphasis on ambition, and some on humanitarian values. Unfortunately these values have to go through a destruction phase for a few years, before something new will come forth.

One of the most important and central thoughts in Buddhist philosophy is the idea of compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Intensity in Relationships

For the next several days Venus unites with Pluto. This adds plutonian issues in our close relationships. We crave intensity, and may be prone to jealousy and the desire to control others. We are also cold and ambitious because the Moon continues for another day and a half in Capricorn, along with the Sun, Mercury and Mars. With the Sun tightly trine Uranus this is a day for new adventures and discoveries, but not so good for being very disciplined.

Pity those who don’t feel anything at all. ~Sara J. Maas

Theme: Not as Bad as We Think

Saturn has pulled into close orb with Neptune, until the northern hemisphere spring equinox. This can affect us in many negative ways. Confusion, self-doubt and uncertainty are all likely. But the negative view point that we are drawn towards is not really accurate. Take a look at the positive things going on now: a gratitude list is recommended. We should be mindful of our health, careful in making plans and we are actually capable of making great sacrifices now.

If we studied Bodhicitta, or the mind of compassion, every single day for the rest of our lives, we wouldn’t even scratch its surface because it is so profound. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: From harmony and beauty to deep probing

In the mid morning the Moon goes from Libra to Scorpio. Unfortunately this is not a happy place for our emotions, subconscious and home life. We may not like what we feel, but we do have the ability to probe deeply into problems. To make it harder, the Moon is square to Pluto, especially in the middle of the day. This will bring up compulsive tendencies and perhaps nasty power struggles with others. The best approach is to pause and be rigorously self-honest and compassionate.

We need to begin to stabilize the mind by sensing the difference between our nature and our conceptualizations– ~Jetsunma Akhon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today until 5:56 am EST. Do not make any big decisions until after that.

Theme: Thinking Big

Jupiter is opposed to the stellium in Capricorn (Sun, Venus and Mars). We are generous in spirit and think in terms of doing big things, particularly relating to religion, philosophy and long distance travel. In the middle of the day, the Moon makes a T square which can be disorienting, as our subconscious is stimulated. Pluto continues to inch its way through Aquarius indicating first a breakdown of humanitarian values, before the renewal of them in several years.

By thinking big, we can transform our world. ~Ben Carson

The Moon is void of course from 12:55 pm until 5:56 am the next day EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Focus

The stellium of the Sun, Venus and Mars is as tight as they come again today. This gives a focus of energy in the style of Capricorn, which is a cardinal earth sign. So initiating practical projects, and leadership skills are favored. The part of fortune is tied in with the above mentioned celestial bodies, making today particularly lucky. As the Moon goes through the sign of Libra, we are also looking for harmony and beauty, but be patient with yourself and others in the second part of the day as emotions can overwhelm our communications then.

If you don’t value yourself, you’re not going to draw valuable things into your life. ~Robert Tew

Theme: Yin and Yang

There continues to be the Sun, Venus and Mars in close alignment. Venus represents the more feminine energy, and Mars the masculine. This favors all relationships, not just romantic ones. Ultimately, we can balance the yin and yang within ourselves for the next week. The Moon moves into Leo in the late morning, and we turn our attention to creative self expression and play. But the Moon opposes Pluto, our subconscious drive, in the middle of the day. Expect intense emotions in ourselves and others at this time.

If you try to change it, you will ruin it. Try to hold on to it and you will lose it. ~Lao Tzu

The Moon is void of course today from 8:01 am to 8:45 am EST. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.
