Jenny MilamThere are some contradictory energies swirling around today, which might have us on a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. Don’t be shocked if you’re feeling a bit vulnerable and raw. Take it easy on yourself and make time for a little solo introspection—that’s usually what that Scorpio moon wants.
The Moon is Opposite Uranus at 12:04 AM
Overnight, the moon in Scorpio moved opposite Uranus in Taurus for a slightly uneasy-feeling transit. We might experience some emotional turmoil and stress in our relationships.
This placement can have us feeling cagey, with our independence at the top of our priority list. We also might be looking for a fight, with an urge to pick at someone just to get a reaction. The heavy energy of the past weeks may be weighing on us, and we’re unsure of how to work through it.
Luckily, most of this will happen while we’re sleeping. You might wake up feeling irritable; just be careful who you take that emotional energy out on. This is only a temporary mood.
The Moon is Trine Venus at 9:54 AM
This morning, the moon in Scorpio forms a trine with Venus in Cancer, bringing a welcome bit of love and tenderness to our collective mood. The moon trine Venus is a very maternal aspect, so you may have babies on the brain. Or, less literally, you might simply feel a stronger urge to nurture and protect those around you—especially those going through a tough time right now.
The moon and Venus amp up our charm and attractiveness, and you’ll find you’re quite persuasive to those around you. It’s a great time to go after a promotion, a loan, or a favor. You can also use this energy to stand up for others.
The Moon is Square Saturn at 11:00 AM
Later this morning, the moon forms a square aspect with Saturn in earthy Capricorn. Squares between the moon and Saturn can cause serious bouts of moodiness and moments of depression, and you may find yourself dredging up past grief and other unresolved matters.
It’s quite possible that you’ll have woken up in a funk this morning, but any dreams you had might offer some insight into what you need to work through. Write them down if you can remember, and hold onto them to delve into later. Then, take some time to write down some things you’re grateful for to bolster your mood a bit.
This transit might leave you with a slightly restless feeling. A bout of low self esteem could keep you from openly sharing your emotions, and you might be feeling more isolated and distant from your loved ones than you have been lately. It might be a good time to spend a little time alone today.
The Moon is Sextile Jupiter at 12:31 PM
This afternoon, the moon in Scorpio forms a sextile with Jupiter in Capricorn. This puts us in a social mood, and you may 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.
This transit has you 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.
The Moon is Trine Neptune at 3:46 PM
Later this afternoon, the moon in pensive Scorpio forms a trine aspect with Neptune in dreamy Pisces. All of this watery energy brings about a time of introspection and imagination. It would be a great time to focus on creative projects, especially those involving film or video. Working in front of a mirror could also spark some serious creativity.
This is also a good time to meet, or call in, a future partner. Your friends may also seek you out, either for support or advice. You’re happy to oblige both. In fact, you might feel like seeking out ways to support others, perhaps with charitable or humanitarian work, or using your art and influence to draw attention to a cause.
Your intuition is quite strong this evening, so pay attention to any psychic flashes or hits you might receive. It would be a great time to delve into a divination practice.
The Moon is Sextile Pluto at 8:26 PM
Tonight, the moon in Scorpio forms a sextile with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. This transit can expose deeply buried emotions that need to be dealt with at the surface.
It’s possible that you will have some very eye-opening encounters that reveal exactly how you feel about someone. And in turn, you will 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. Right now you can easily get to the root cause and integrate those lessons you need to move beyond it.
