Mercury stations retrograde a little after midnight, and we’re currently in its shadow. The placement of the moon in relation to Mercury and Neptune has us in a sensitive, intuitive, and dreamy place. We might even receive unexpected communications from surprising people. Let’s take a look at what else is going on.
The Moon is Sextile Mercury at 11:01 AM
Later on this morning, the moon in grounded Taurus forms a sextile aspect with Mercury in emotive Cancer. This is a favorable transit, and these signs compliment each other well. It puts us in the mood for socializing and chatting.
You’re in tune with your own emotions as well as those of the people around you right now, so conversations will flow free and easy.
Communication is the theme of the day, and it’s very likely that you’ll receive more attention from friends and family than usual. Remember to check in on them as well. Your support and advice might be sorely needed, and you could be a shoulder to cry on for a friend in need.
You might have some fleeting bouts of bittersweet sentimentality today, and find yourself wanting to go through old photo albums or memory boxes, or reach out to old friends. You might even receive an unexpected message from someone who used to be in your life. Mercury, the ruler of communication, stations retrograde shortly after midnight. This causes us to revisit past encounters, conversations, and emotional relationships in general.
The Moon is Sextile Neptune at 11:16 PM
Late this evening, our moon in Taurus forms a sextile with Neptune in dreamy Pisces. This transit brings about heightened emotional sensitivity, intense empathetic connections, and improved psychic abilities.
Expect to feel everything very deeply right now—the good and the bad. Keep this in mind when you feel a sense of melancholy or agitation come on. Your emotional nerve endings are exposed right now. Prepare yourself accordingly, set your boundaries, and try to react to these sensations with patience and a spirit of learning.
Because our intuition is high, tonight would be a great time to delve into a divination practice. You’ll be especially open to psychic hits and messages, but you’ll also have spiritual protection. It’s a good time for meditation as well, and if you choose to practice, some pretty clear downloads will come through.
Tonight would also be a fantastic time to work on creative projects. It will be easier than normal to get abstract, artistic ideas out of your head and out into the world in a tangible form.
Your dreams tonight should be quite vivid and imaginative. Lucid dreaming might even be possible. Place a journal by your bed so you can record what you experience first thing tomorrow.
