Theme: Impermanence

You may start the day feeling a little isolated and mentally confused. It’s as if everything is a little unfocused and lacks clarity but as the day progresses you will enjoy good company and find ideas and communication stimulating. You will feel generous with others, while also protecting your finances. New activities and encounters help to break from daily routine. Whatever is born is impermanent and is bound to die … so also friendship and enmity, fortune and sorrow, good and evil, all thoughts that run through your mind- everything is always changing.~Patrul Rinpoche

Theme: Calming & Comforting

There is an Earth Grand Trine today involving 4 planets with Mars and Mercury conjunct on one point. Usually an Earth Grand Trine is comforting and calming, bringing a sense of inner security and stability. With Uranus involved it can bring dynamic, unexpected change. It is a day of courageous leadership that could bring solutions to entrenched problems particularly affecting women. There is potential for sharing, dynamic, exciting and unifying objectives which could help break free of inhibitions. Very positive outcomes should ensue. All social change comes from the passion of individuals. ~Margaret Mead

Theme: Energy

It’s a day to get things done, especially over the next two days while the Moon is in Capricorn. There are favorable aspects for activity and accomplishment of goals. There are challenges in interpersonal relationships.. Misunderstandings can arise today. You may lack awareness about the causes of these difficulties so see if you can ride the situation out until you have more clarity. Feeling a sense of freedom can inspire you today. Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.~Mahatma Ghandi

Theme: Enjoy the Dance of Fire

With the Sun and Moon in Fire signs it’s a time for tapping into spontaneity, enthusiasm and enjoyment. Of course with fire there are always sparks so be aware of the inner dignity of all beings and the benefits of an adventurous spirit and being generous. Be discriminating in relation to people who cast nets of deception or illusion. A wise person once said, any fool can know. The point is to understand.~Albert Einstein

Theme: Harmony & Understanding

We have probably been dreaming of hearing such words as harmony and understanding. Today is the day Venus moves into Libra until September 11th and brings balance, fairness, gentleness, peace, tranquility. A time for mediation, a time for listening to each other and dreaming of universal love not war. Inspired by the Sagittarius Moon, there will be enthusiasm for idealism and exploring future, far reaching goals together. The day the power of love Overrules the love of power The world will know peace.~Mahatma Gandhi

Theme: Expect the unexpected

Once again another T-square forms with the Uranus/Saturn backdrop, this time Moon in Scorpio is the activating planet. Uranus continues to release us from the comfort and complacency that Taurus can slip into. We are again being forced out of our comfort zone to face rapid and radical changes that can be destabilizing. Resistance to change only makes it harder. We have to develop the habit of putting some spaciousness into our mind in order to have spaciousness at the time of death.~Jetsunma Akhon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Intensely Harmonious

With the Moon moving into Scorpio and square Pluto there is definitely emotional intensity in the air. One can also feel nurtured when giving and receiving with this transit, particularly as other influences for the day will reflect harmonious relations with friends and a sense of well being and warmth. Of all the practices I know the practice of Tonglen, which in Tibetan means “ giving and receiving “, is one of the most useful and powerful.~Sogyal Rinpoche

Theme: Cup overflowing

It’s a activity day so prioritize if you can. Lots of opportunities across different domains are present. Find ways to connect to your heart and others: sit in nature, touch the earth, converse and take moments for contemplation and insight. It’s also a transitional day. Finishing unfinished business and complete a task cycle to enable a new cycle to begin. If you get tired, learn to rest not to quit.~Banksy

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 7.22 am EST USA until 4.08 pm. If you’re 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.

Theme: Reigning in outer expression for inner journeys

You’ll be tempted to engage with big ideas and grand gestures. You can get things done if you reign in any tendencies towards controlling others. Harness your ideals and inner visionary qualities. See if you can modify your outward habits and free up space for connecting with the wider universe in more subtle ways. Reflectivity, gentleness and compassion are qualities you can cultivate. The Moon moves into pragmatic, communicative Virgo today. How deeply are you sleeping or are you still awake?~Florence and the Machine

Today the Moon is Void of Course from 8.23 am EDT USA until 10.56 am. If you’re 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.

Theme: New Beginnings

The New Moon today is conjunct the Sun in Leo and sets up a trend for 6 months. This will bring your personal, domestic and emotional life into focus. You will feel more integrated and relationships should be more harmonious. With the Sun/ Uranus/ Saturn T-square still in operation you may well have more responsibilities come your way. Whatever unconscious emotions emerge today, you may discover new ways of being and relating that surprise you. As you engage in Buddhist practice it’s helpful to think of your mind as being like a field strewn with rocks, weeds and gravel. You cannot reap a harvest until the land has been cleared and made suitable for planting.~Konchok Yenlak
