The Moon in Leo Will Break You Out of Your Shell Tonight

Today’s energies are a bit up and down, going from high to low and then high again. Our moon makes several transits before going void of course and eventually setting up shop in fiery, passionate Leo.

The Moon is Trine Neptune at 3:11 AM

At 3:11 am this morning our moon, in emotional Cancer, moved trine Neptune in dreamy Pisces. This sensitizes our emotions, creativity, and inspiration. That means we awoke this morning with from sweet, creative dreams that filled us with the possibility of new ventures and empathy for our fellow human beings.

Take some time this morning to journal about any ideas that may have come up, as our imaginations and visions are especially fertile in this placement.

The Moon is Opposite both Pluto at 11:54 AM and Jupiter at 3:41 PM

Around noon, sweet emotional Cancer leans into her more protective and secretive side as she moves in opposition to Pluto in Capricorn. This placement can bring about abrupt ad complex feelings of lack and inadequacy, and cause us to turn inward and try to bottle up our emotions, unable to express what’s going on.

It can also bring on feelings of wanting to hide or numb our feelings away. This placement can stir up relationship drama. Try to stay aware of these inclinations, and find a way to express yourself that’s uplifting and productive.

A few hours later, the pendulum swings in the opposite direction, as the moon moves in opposition to Jupiter. With it comes a need to express ourselves, regardless of the consequences.

Moon opposite Jupiter transit brings good feelings and generosity but also the potential for lack of self-control and unwanted attention. Bottling our emotions only leads to explosive outcomes later, so it’s best to try to stay as open as possible throughout the day.

The Moon is Void of Course from 3:29-9:09 PM

When the moon is “void of course” it means that it is no longer in a defined sign. This happens right before the moon is about to enter a new sign, and can last from a few seconds to a few days.

While the moon is void of course, it’s best to avoid making any big decisions, as our decision-making in such periods can later turn out to be unrealistic. This is a time best fused for reflection, rather than directly taking action.

The Moon Moves into Leo at 9:09 PM

The moon moves into the fiery sign of Leo tonight at 9:09 PM, bringing about a burst of creative energy and a desire to get out there (as much as anyone can get “out there” right now) and strut your stuff. The mood is all about pleasure and enjoyment, and forces us to come out of those comfy, if fearful, Cancerian shells.
