Theme: Disciplined Ambition

Mars, our conscious drive, has entered Capricorn, where it has a helpful dose of discipline. With 3 other major planets in this sign, we are focused outwardly, towards our career and public life. Yet, Mercury goes retrograde at 7:53 pm EST USA. The next 3 weeks will be frustrating and confusing unless we can temper this ambition, and be patient and careful. Finish old tasks, turn toward inward activities, and focus on research rather than making big decisions. Trying to understand some people is like trying to pick up a turd by the clean end. ~ Daffy Duck

Theme: Imagination and Tension

Mercury in dreamy, imaginative Pisces is well supported today. Be creative, but still dot your i’s and cross your t’s. We are emotionally charged to achieve, transform our environment, and experience things deeply. But we are conflicted. We also wish to be detached, free from constraints. If the problem can be solved why worry? If it the problem cannot be solved worrying will do you no good. ~ Shantideva

You will feel more aligned with your sense of purpose today. There is an opportunity to think in new and different ways. This can help you look at what seems a challenging situations in more productive ways. Key relationships alert you to staying more connected with others. Subconscious motivations surface providing opportunities for changing old habits. If you are unable to find the truth right where you are, where else would you expect to find it?~Dogen

Theme: Burst of energy

With Mars in good aspect to the Sun and the Moon today physical energy will be stronger today. However, our emotions are more challenged by outside pressures which result in emotional restrictions and feelings of separation. The Moon also moves into Scorpio today signifying deeper, emotional responses to events. When faced with overwhelming emotions cultivate becoming a peacenik! Non-violence is a permanent attitude we bring to the breakfast table and bring to bed at night.~Coretta Scott King

Theme: Aerating the Day

With both the Sun and Moon in Air signs today it’s a good time for conversations, connecting with others and generating ideas. However, if you find you’re too much in you’re head meditation and physical activity can provide some grounding. With Venus in the astrological mix, encounters with others can also open your heart today. Wherever you go, go with all your heart.~Confucius

Theme: Working with your limits

Early in this time period we are in touch with deep emotions and desire for change. As the ‘day’ progresses we turn towards practical applications and working within worldly constraints. This is a day of accomplishment. However, there is an element of stress concerning integrating the past and the future. Happiness is to know your limits and be happy with them.~Romain Rolland

Theme: Asserting your beliefs

This is a fortunate day to pursue your vision for a better world. Relationships can be healed at this time. There is a tussle between the head and the heart today, leading to some irritability. However, there is a potential for drawing on your imagination to realize your practical concerns. The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.~Helen Keller

Theme: Disruption and mixed blessings

With the Moon in good aspect to difficult planets at times – Uranus and Mars – there is good and bad news today. There is a sudden ending, and unexpected disruption of normal day to day habits and patterns that can cause emotional pain. On the plus side, because it is an harmonious aspect, there are good outcomes even in the most difficult of circumstances.The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old but on building the new.~Socrates

Theme: Shining too much?

With the full moon in Leo people are vying for individual attention. However, the Sun in Aquarius embraces group activity which can challenge individual needs. Try not to take things too seriously. There is an opportunity for beneficial communication and messages today with someone from your past. The herd instinct from forecasters makes sheep look like independent thinkers.~Edgar Fiedler

Theme: Idealism and Charity

For the next month, there is a favorable connection between Jupiter, the “greater Benefic”, and Neptune, our ideals. Take advantage of this time with study and application of one’s religion and/or philosophy. Experience the joy of transcending petty concerns, and of giving to others. Be careful with speculations and gambling, especially if selfishly motivated. If we really knew the truth of suffering, there would not be one moment that we did not practice with the utmost compassion. ~ Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 10:44 am EST USA until 5:46 pm. If you are in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or signing contracts during this time.
