The Stars Want You to Shake Things Up Today

For the first part of the day, the moon plays off Uranus to bring about unexpected encounters and an urge to shake things up. But late this evening, we find a more peaceful groove as the moon lines up with sweet, dreamy Pisces as we move into the weekend.

The Moon Is Sextile Uranus at 12:58 AM

Overnight, the moon in dreamy Pisces formed a sextile angle with Uranus in grounded Taurus, stimulating personal encounters and exciting events. This transit has us feeling open to change, and might even urge us to seek it out. It’s a great time to try something new because of these lowered inhibitions.

You’re feeling restless, but pleasantly so. You may find yourself searching for new experiences, and even new people. You might also feel like you need to shake up the people around you to jog them out of their complacency. Or, if you’re not entirely conscious of this desire, you might attract people into your life who will shake you up.

It’s possible you’ll meet a new friend today, or maybe you’ll think of or hear from an old friend unexpectedly. This person will give you the distraction you desire, open you up to new opportunities for advancement, and broaden your horizons. Or, at the very least, they’ll offer a change of scenery for a bit. Female friends are especially prone to fulfill this role.

Others may feel you’re acting rather odd today, like you’re out of sorts. But with your inhibitions lowered, you can embrace the attention toward this usually-hidden aspect of your personality.

The Moon Is Conjunct Venus at 10:33 PM

When the moon in Pisces forms a conjunction with Venus, also in Pisces, it can usher in a sense of peace and harmony, deep empathy, a desire for beauty, and heightened sexual energy. It brings our emotions to the surface and makes us more sensitive to everything around us—the good and the bad. Luckily, we’re more likely to attract the good under this influence.

All of this Pisces energy has us in the mood for socializing, and it would be a great time for entertaining, or just nurturing and loving on your nearest and dearest.

You’ll also be seeking ways to bring more beauty into your life and home, which might lead to a bit of retail therapy. Just be careful not to let your emotions outweigh your common sense when you’re up at the cash register.
