It's a Day of Introspection, Thanks to Neptune and the Moon in Scorpio

We’ve got a lot of watery influences swirling around us right now, and that means wistfulness, sensitivity, and introspection. Be gentle with yourself today, and pay close attention to the intuitive hits you might get along the way.

The Moon is Trine Mercury at 5:07 AM

Early this morning, the moon in Scorpio forms a watery trine with Mercury in Cancer, making us feel like we’re seeing things clearly for the first time in a while. Our feelings and intuition are balanced by our rationality and keen perception, ultimately leading to self awareness and sound judgment.

This is a great time to use a social platform to share your insights with others. Whether that’s through public speaking, writing, or any other form of communication that’s calling to you, you should let your voice be heard.

Pay close attention to the dreams you had last night, they could have some insight to share with you. You could have a revelation about your childhood or family history. Keep your mind open, and record any intuitive flashes as they happen.

The Moon is Trine Neptune at 11:19 AM

Later this morning our moon, in reflective Scorpio, moves 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.

Keep that journal with you today, as you’ll continue to get psychic hits. Our imaginations and visions are especially fertile in this placement.

The Moon is Sextile Jupiter at 11:20 AM

Literally a minute later, the moon in Scorpio forms a sextile with Jupiter in Capricorn. This is a social aspect, and you may be longing for more fun and lighthearted interactions than have been available in the recent past. You could also have an urge to reconnect with old friends and family you’ve lost touch with. It’s a warm and welcoming transit for all relationships in our lives, but specifically those with women.

Today you’re feeling open, honest, and a bit vulnerable with your feelings. Making new connections will be easy. You’re feeling generous with your time, energy, and resources, and might look for group activities meant to help others.

Professionally, this would be a good time to make a presentation about a passion project, or to promote yourself to superiors, collaborators, or investors.

Jupiter is Sextile Neptune at 1:46 PM

This afternoon, Jupiter in Capricorn forms a sextile with Neptune in dreamy Pisces. This brings about an idealist and optimistic state of mind. You feel like nothing could go wrong, but you’re probably not focused on yourself right now. Taking care of others and standing up for the downtrodden is where your attention is drawn.

You’re also more intrigued by philosophy and spirituality, and specifically the esoteric. Even if you’re not delving into spiritual texts, you see the divine in everything around you—even in things you’ve always taken for grated before.

Given your current idealism, which is lovely but could also be blinding, avoid making serious decisions about money at this time.

The Moon is Sextile Pluto at 3:59 PM

Later this afternoon, the moon in pensive Scorpio forms a sextile with Pluto in Capricorn. This transit can expose deeply buried emotions that need to be dealt with at the surface.

It’s possible that you could have some very eye-opening encounters that reveal exactly how you feel about someone. And in turn, you could learn exactly how they feel about you. Even if this proves to be uncomfortable, it’s an experience that will provide you with a good deal of growth. And at least you’ll know how to move forward.

This has the potential to be a period of rebirth, allowing you to release old habits and destructive patterns from the past. Today, you can easily get to the root cause and integrate those lessons you need to move beyond it.

The Moon is Sextile Saturn at 12:00 AM

Late tonight, the moon in Scorpio forms a sextile with Saturn in Capricorn. This transit might have you dwelling on the health, safety, and overall well-being of your loved ones and your community. You may have an urge to physically feed, shelter, or protect them.

You could also be feeling wistful about loved ones and family or ancestors who are no longer with us. If you’re feeling introspective and melancholy, perhaps some time organizing photos or keepsakes could be healing.
