✨ Happy Venus Day!
SUN IN AQUARIUS | MOON IN CAPRICORN >> AQUARIUS
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am not afraid to think bigger.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♒️ MERCURY SEXTILE ♈️ JUPITER (7º) 6:13 PM PT
Big ideas are possible today as messenger Mercury gets support from Jupiter. We are less concerned with small, daily tasks, and instead, more interested on broader plans. We’ll likely feel hopeful about what we’ll accomplish moving forward. This transit also favors travel or booking trips. We are more intellectually curious. We’ll be more generous and kind toward others and easily able to strike up conversations. Expect to feel more outgoing and confident in negotiation and communication.

🌘 WANING CRESCENT MOON IN CAPRICORN ♑️
The waning moon in Capricorn asks us to reflect on the lessons we’ve been learning and look back at the mountain we’ve been climbing. We can acknowledge the wisdom we’ve gained in this past cycle as the pace slows. With the moon in its weakest position, we are more concerned with rationalizing our feelings rather than just experiencing them.
♑️ MOON SEXTILE ♓️ NEPTUNE (24º) 1:00 PM PT
The serious energy of the Capricorn moon is softened by a sextile to Neptune. Friday afternoon brings opportunity to lean into creativity and let our imagination take the lead. Compassion and sensitivity are readily available to us if we’re willing to use them.
♑️ MOON SEXTILE ♓️ VENUS (26º) 5:00 PM PT
A lovely Friday night is in order during a supportive sextile between the moon and Venus. Don’t be afraid to take the lead when it comes to expressing affection. The vibes we put out will be returned to us ten fold. Spread love, not fear.
♑️ MOON CONJUNCT ♑️ PLUTO (29º) 8:00 PM PT
The week ends with a bang as the moon meets up with Pluto in Capricorn. Intense moments are possible this Friday night. With the moon heading into its darkest phase, this conjunction feels like a final purge. As we connect with the past, we can let go of what we no longer want to carry into the future.
🌘 DARK MOON ➡️ AQUARIUS ♒️ (9:35 PM PT)
The Dark Moon in Aquarius is an invitation to take space and zoom out as we reflect on the cycle ending. By slowing down and going within, we can gain new perspective about what we have learned and envision what we want to create in the cycle ahead. Innovative ideas can come through when we get quiet enough to receive them. Being in community can spark realizations as well.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Expand your mind. As Mercury connects with Jupiter, grand ideas and expansive conversations are possible. By zooming out to see the bigger picture, we can gain new perspective. The waning Capricorn moon helps us reflect on the cycle behind us. Connections to Neptune and Venus soften the serious energy, asking us to lean into love and compassion. Spreading positivity will only bring it back to us. Late tonight, a meeting of the moon in Pluto acts as a last push to release and let go of the past in order to make way for new energy. The dark moon enters Aquarius over the coming days, giving us permission to take space. By slowing down, we can dream up innovative ideas ahead of this weekend’s new moon.
