There's no shirking from reality at a time like this. The Sun in Virgo is making its annual opposition to Saturn in Pisces at 12:35 am EDT, making it necessary for us to align our goals and ambitions with our intuition if we want to succeed. Our ideas may flow at an uneven speed as Mercury stumbles into a quincunx with Neptune. The Moon in Scorpio does stabilize things with Saturn and the Sun, so we will be able to survive any storms.
Everyone possesses the ability to shock right now. Messenger Mercury is locking into a combustible square with rebel Uranus at 12:21 am EDT, so our words and ideas are going to arrive with a heaping dose of the eccentric and eclectic. Meanwhile, the Moon will rile up our emotions when it squares nefarious Pluto, but we can return to a more centered position once it slips into Scorpio. There, it will make a stabilizing trine to Mars, allowing us to channel our energy effectively.
Our emotions are all over the place today, but that doesn't mean we can't make use of them. The Moon in Libra begins with a trine to Jupiter in Gemini, encouraging us to think big, but it will oppose Chiron in Aries at 10:39 am EDT, which can bring up old baggage or trauma. Fortunately, a lunar sextile to Mercury in Leo will help us find ways to talk through our issues. At the end of the day, we can handle our concerns.
We can all be our best selves today -- without making it a chore. The Moon is sailing through pleasant Libra, encouraging us to be fair-minded and amiable. This congeniality will be further amplified when the Moon conjoins magnetic Venus at 5:12 am EDT, adding a huge dose of positivity. We can let our feelings guide us forward under this energy. Listening to our intuition should be even easier when the Moon nudges Saturn in Pisces later on in the day. We've got this!
This is no time to ignore our emotions. The Moon begins the day in Virgo, where it will oppose mystical Neptune before dancing into fair-minded Libra. Things could get overwhelming when Mars makes an unusual quincunx to Pluto, but we'll have the energy to handle it once Mars marches into sensitive Cancer at 3:46 pm EDT. During this emotionally charged transit, we'll all be more inclined to follow our feelings. Still, we are capable of avoiding the temptation to act out.
It's almost impossible to know what's what under today's stars in advance. Energetic Mars is making a difficult square to watery Neptune at 12:10 am EDT, which is going to leave us all feeling like we're wading through a swamp. Meanwhile, the Moon in Virgo will oppose Saturn, then square Jupiter, making it difficult to know whether to step on the gas or hit the brakes. A final lunar quincunx to Chiron will encourage healing, but it may be a rather confusing process.
Transparency is the name of the game. There is a huge focus on being open with our feelings and inner thoughts as messenger Mercury forms a healing trine to wounded Chiron, soothing old hurts and turning them into something much more processable. A New Moon in Virgo will occur at 9:56 pm EDT, crystalizing this energy into a healthily productive vibe. These aspects form an opportunity for us all to make our lives a bit easier, so don't miss out on the cosmic encouragement.
The planets are keeping themselves busy today. The Moon in Leo gets right down to business when it conjoins messenger Mercury. Next, change-maker Uranus spins retrograde in stable-minded Taurus, giving us time to acclimate to any recent changes. Retrograde Pluto will slip back into Capricorn at 8:10 pm EDT. We should contemplate any ongoing projects with Pluto's power motivating us, as once Pluto leaves Capricorn in November, it won't return for over 200 years. This productivity is boosted even further by Luna entering efficient Virgo.
Enthusiasm could provoke backlash without warning. When the joyful Leo Moon interferes with pessimistic Saturn at 9:18 pm EDT, our moods may simply clash. One person's happiness might be too much for someone else who's not in the right space for it, and vice versa. Perhaps we need to drop the idea that we're required to pick a side. Enjoyment of a particular activity or idea can coexist with valid questions about it. Allow room for criticism to be aired, and it'll probably dissipate.
Passion might become uncomfortable at present. As the intuitive Cancer Moon harmonizes with innovative Uranus and creative Neptune, we're likely to enjoy fantasizing freely. In this mellow state, worthwhile thoughts will have room to rise to the surface. Once the Moon switches into dramatic Leo at 1:09 pm EDT, however, our egos could enter the equation. Luna then opposes domineering Pluto, enhancing the danger of power struggles. We should avoid taking today's disputes at face value -- grievances aren't necessarily what they seem.
