1/27/23 ✨ Mercury Square Chiron
✨ Happy Venus Day!
SUN IN AQUARIUS | MOON IN ARIES >> TAURUS
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I turn pain into healing.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♑️ MERCURY SQUARE ♈️ CHIRON (12º) 2:42 AM PT
Triggering conversations could lead to healing realizations. A third and final square between Mercury and Chiron forces us to acknowledge our wounding and address what we’re going to do about it. Our mind is focused on success with Mercury in Capricorn, but this transit forces us to acknowledge what (or who) is holding us back from reaching our goals. Watch out for explosive expression- hostility is possible if we’re not mindful about how we’re communicating.
We experienced this same aspect on December 14 and again during Mercury Retrograde on January 11.
🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌑
🌒 WAXING CRESCENT MOON IN ARIES ♈️
Our inner fire is lit when the waxing moon enters the first sign of the zodiac! We can get the ball rolling on the intentions we set under the new moon and begin to move towards our desired outcome. We feel like taking action when the moon is in Aries. Physical exercise can help us process our emotions.
♈️ MOON SEXTILE ♒️ SATURN (25º) 7:00 AM PT
We wake up aware of our responsibilities and ready to run towards success as the moon connects with serious Saturn. We’re able to lean into leadership and stand up for what we believe is right. Maturity comes more easily.
♈️ MOON SQUARE ♑️ PLUTO (28º) 1:00 PM PT
Deep emotions can surface in a rather explosive manner when the fiery Aries moon squares Pluto. Look out for power struggles and angry outbursts. A need for control could lead to frustration or anger. Slow down and ask what unresolved feelings are trying to show you.
VOID MOON FROM 1:00 PM - 3:43 PM PT
A brief void moon this afternoon gives us an opportunity to say we’re sorry or allow tension to diffuse. Take a chill pill and set things right before moving forward.
🌓 FIRST QUARTER MOON ➡️ TAURUS ♉️ (3:43 PM PT)
The first quarter moon in Taurus asks us to dig our heels in and push forward. When the moon is in the sign of the bull, we feel grounded and crave comfort. Connecting with our values can help us find the internal determination to take aligned action.
♉️ MOON SEXTILE ♓️ VENUS (1º) 6:00 PM PT
It feels good to feel good as the sensual Taurus moon connects with lovely Venus in Pisces. Expressing affection comes naturally- especially if it involves physical touch. Cuddly night on the couch anyone?? It’s a little easier to show people how much we care about them.
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Healing is in the forecast as Mercury makes a third and final square to Chiron. We could be forced to acknowledge pain that came up during Mercury Retrograde today, but doing so could lead to breakthroughs. As Venus begins her swim through Pisces, we’re eager to tap into love and empathy are the answer. The Aries moon gets support from Saturn this morning, helping us step into maturity and leadership. But a square to Pluto this afternoon could bring deep emotions to the surface unexpectedly. Release control and witness what powerful feelings are teaching. When the first quarter moon moves into Taurus, we are asked to align with our values and take grounded action. The week ends with a cuddly connection between the moon and Venus, making for a pleasurable Friday night.
