Sagittarius Moon
Mercury in Scorpio sextile Venus in Capricorn 11:59 AM EDT
Moon in Sagittarius is a break during this incredibly heavy month, astrologically speaking. Under Sagittarius Moon we are more easily able to look on the bright side, and see lessons inherent in a big picture perspective. This visionary Moon can at once perceive and understand, and we feel inclined to move and to take action. There is a level of impulsivity that this Moon can inspire, but it isn’t overwhelming, it comes from a deep sense of knowing. Moon will sextile Saturn in Aquarius at 8:46 AM EDT, and our urge to wander may be restricted by responsibility, but this is an aspect that makes things just make sense. Even if they aren’t coming together, we can see the why a little more easily. Moon will trine Chiron in Aries at 11:36 AM EDT, and sensitive issues may be extra provocative…Sagittarius Moon can connect the dots and see patterns between past hurt and present behavior here. Moon will make a quincunx to Uranus in Taurus at 5:09 PM EDT, and though Uranus is a force of change, we aren’t willing to jump and make moves until we’ve contemplated philosophically, and engaged in self-debate. Today’s lunar influence is optimistic and aiming high, we need a sense of freedom in the midst of the other intense energies at work around us.
Yesterday, Mercury, planet of thought and communication moved into deep, dark Scorpio, and Venus, planet of love and resources, moved into stoic Capricorn. Today, these two inner planets meet in a sextile at 11:59 AM EDT. Sextiles are like cracking a door open to see beyond, they are fleeting aspects that bring opportunity, if we DO something about things. Mercury is guiding us with powerful instinct and intuition here, and Venus is cautious and hesitant in this sign, encouraging us to conserve our resources and use them wisely. This is a powerful aspect for negotiation, just remember that both signs have an inherent need for control. Remember that not all details will be disclosed under this aspect, Mercury in Scorpio operates on a need to know basis. There is an underlying resistance to trust, thanks to the heightened sense of Scorpio Mercury intuition that has us all on guard right now. Communication in relationships must be deep right now to be satisfying, and it’s important to pay attention to hints and subtle cues today. Anxiety may be a response to changing relationship dynamics under this big shift of both planets, so if things feel out of sorts, go Scorpio and go within, playing detective. Obsession and jealousy will be powerful for the next three weeks with Mercury here, and remember that Venus in Capricorn doesn’t deal in drama. It’s time to sort things out today, and negotiate a middle ground that works.
