Jenny MilamThere’s a lot of planetary activity happening today, leading into a weekend of some discomfort and turbulence. But today, the moon moves from intense Scorpio to playful Sagittarius, and that will help to balance out all of these heavier energies.
The Moon Is Square Mercury at 2:30 AM
A bit after midnight, the moon in Scorpio formed a square with Mercury in Aquarius. This transit is setting up a bit of a standoff between our emotions and our thoughts.
This could lead to some possible conflict and irritability. While you’re hashing things out in your own head, be careful not to push your opinions or criticism onto others. Your emotions are swaying your thoughts too much, and you could end up doing permanent harm to a relationship if you insist on a debate.
Instead, channel that energy in a more productive way. Maybe some time spent on intensive organizing could be beneficial? You’re in the perfect frame of mind to do some deep cleaning and of your physical space.
The Moon Is Sextile Pluto at 4:17 AM
Overnight, the moon in introspective Scorpio formed 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. Right now you can easily get to the root cause and integrate those lessons you need to move beyond it.
The Moon Moves into Sagittarius at 1:21 PM
Synchronicities, psychic hits, and gut instincts should be heeded under this moon. After the heavy introspection of a Scorpio moon, Sag feels more energetic and optimistic. We want nothing more than to gather our friends and go on an epic adventure.
But, it still urges us to search for the truth, and that euphoric high you get when something you’ve struggled with suddenly makes SO MUCH SENSE is Sagittarius’ calling card.
When you do finally see that big picture clearly, your philosophy and worldview can shift a little. That’s OK. It’s a flash of enlightenment in an otherwise dark landscape, and it can give you the hope to keep on learning and growing in times of adversity.
Sag moons also spur us into action. We want to be moving forward, gaining ground, and making progress. It can put us in a much more adventurous, risk-taking sort of mood. If you’re feeling stuck emotionally, sometimes physical activity can help clear our hearts and minds.
Be wary with all of this truth you’re uncovering. It’s important to share, but Sagittarius isn’t known for tact. Think before you speak, and take others’ emotions into consideration.
The Moon Is Sextile Venus at 11:06 PM
Tonight, the moon in Sagittarius forms a sextile with Venus in Aquarius. When the moon is sextile Venus, it forms a tender, loving aspect. All types of relationships can flourish under this influence, but it’s especially auspicious for romantic pairings. You might even start a new relationship.
It brings about increased beauty, charm, social popularity, and successful dating experiences. It’s an ideal time to be with your partners and friends if you’re able to do so right now.
When Virgo (earth) and Scorpio (water) mingle, they can kindle some playful, spontaneous energy. You might find yourself in the mood to seek out new experiences and fun activities. Lean into it.
The Moon Is Sextile Saturn at 11:24 PM
A short time later, the moon in Sagittarius forms a sextile with Saturn in Aquarius. 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. It’s possible they came to you in your dreams last night, and that you woke up missing them pretty badly.
If you’re feeling introspective and melancholy, perhaps spending some time this morning reminiscing with shared loved ones or organizing photos or keepsakes could be healing.
