Theme: Exploring and uncovering the past

The waning moon is always a good time to let go of the past in preparation for the new: tidy up loose ends, finish up those small things that never get finished and trouble shoot the seemingly intractable. The Moon in Aquarius may give you some alternative ideas in dealing with challenges. There is a Yod aspect with Mars and Pallas Athene at the apex – and Pluto and Neptune forming the base. You can interrogate the past even more closely at this time, and even explore ancestral legacies that have caused harm to others. You may feel uncomfortable undertaking this process but use it as a prod for productive change.

Humans, not places, make memories.~Ama Ata Aidoo

Theme: Intensity and Depth

With the Moon conjunct Pluto today you will feel the pull on your psyche to dredge up your deep emotions, for better or worse. The Moon in Aquarius doesn’t like emotional intensity. To counteract emotional avoidance create some inner spaciousness through taking time out. The element of air is absent from all planetary placements which means it continues to be difficult to stand back from your positions and opinions about things – and have an agile mind. However, a preponderance of good planetary aspects as a softener on the fabric of your life today!

When we become conscious of reducing waste from kitchens to households, and on the streets, it is only then they will realise the health, environmental and economic benefits of waste management.~Adenike Akinsemolu

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 11.34 pm until 3:31am the next day. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Shifting positions

With Venus continuing to be in close square to Uranus, the basis and the predictability of relationships keeps changing. When there are lots of changes going on check your internal sense of balance so that you are better able to respond no matter what is changing. The full moon has peaked and you can better complete tasks and strengthen your home circumstances, aided by the Moon in Capricorn and Sun in Cancer.

There should be a balance in all our actions, to be either extreme or lukewarm is equally bad.~Hazrat Inayat Khan

Theme: Air quality!

There is not one planet in an air sign today so you could be experiencing some challenges with simply breathing! The element of air rules communication, the mind, mentality, objectivity and co-operation – not to mention ones lungs! With the Sun close to Mercury in Cancer the past is noticeably present, and therefore provides a good opportunity to identify old patterns that have outgrown their usefulness but still impinge on the present.

Theme: Thinking your way through

With Mercury, the planet that rules our communication, in good aspect you have some welcome insights from others that help steer your course today. You are also more balanced emotionally. That being said, you still are in the change game and pressure is still being bought to bear, thus engaging your warrior side. Seek the inner weaponry of discipline and patience to to deal with the outer world.

No one is to be called an enemy, all are your benefactors, and no one does you harm. You have no enemy except yourselves.~St Francis of Assisi

Theme: Preventative measures

With a T-Square between Mars/Venus/Pallas Athena, Uranus and Hygeia there is a focus on harnessing beneficial ideas relationships, acumen and preventative medicine in dealing with the build up of pressure and tension. Venus and Hygeia act as antidotes to eruptions and sudden potentially cathartic change by applying patience, resolve and the wisdom of self-care, especially practical ideas and physical self care. Mercury moves into the sign of Cancer today bringing improvements in memory and retention.

The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.~Albert Einstein

Theme: Yin and Yang

With the Sun in Cancer and the Moon in Leo there is a complimentary unusual reversal of roles. This is because the Sun (a yang planet) is in a Yin sign – Cancer – and the Moon (a yin planet) is in a Yang sign – Leo. Ultimately we contain both yin and yang energies but finding a balance between them is the key! With Mars and Venus near the Moon your enemy is your friend and visa versa. Again, the key is finding the balance – and moving away from extremes of attraction and aversion. Energy is unsettling today so settle yourself down by finding a nook of nurturing, whatever that looks like.

Theme: Connecting with with the tender heart

With the Sun now in Cancer it’s an opportunity to connect with the tender parts of you that are protected by the carapace of self-protection. On the one hand it’s wise to be discriminating about when to self-protect or shield yourself, but on the other hand too much over-protection means you can’t easily access your rich emotional interior where dreams, visions and connection to lineage and family reside. The Moon is in Leo bringing a playful creativity into interactions for the next couple of days. It’s also a good time to access your dignity and feeling empowered.

…no matter what action that you are engaging in with your body, speech or mind, – and no matter where you are, If that action is not imbued with love and compassion, you will most probably never feel completely fulfilled.~Chamtrul Rinpoche

Theme: Putting your thinking cap on

With Mercury directly square Saturn today it’s a problem solving time. You can sort it out if you take the time to really think about solutions. The Moon remains in Taurus for most of the day giving a nice grounding energy to your daily routine. The Sun remains in Gemini for about another week so enjoy the speed and lightness of interactions and engagements with others during this time. You might not be able to pin people down but you can enjoy them as they fly past!

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 9.36pm until 9:46pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Distilling

With the Moon in the last waning phase before the new moon on the 18^th of June it’s good to find time to process all that has occurred in this last lunar month (since the 19^th of May). The dark phase of the moon is helpful for inner examination and reflection. On other fronts, it’s a day of mixed blessings. There is energy to complete tasks but challenges in dealing with others. With Neptune opposite Ceres it’s timely to explore the spiritual connections that help grow the giving side of your nature, that in turn returns sustenance to others.

A common teaching is that one should so discreet and selfless, that if you are doing seva [selfless service], that if you are doing seva from the left hand, even your right hand should not find out about it.~Abhinandan Chaudhary
