5/8/22 ✨ First Quarter Moon in Leo
✨ Happy SUN Day!
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am patient and intentional.
🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌑
THE MOON:
🌓 MOON IN LEO ♌️
The Leo moon gives us an energy of magnetism, helping express our emotions more authentically and boldly. We are nurtured by our passions. Having fun is literally medicine for the soul under this transit. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there!
♌️ MOON SQUARE ♉️ URANUS AND TRINE ♈️ CHIRON (14º) 9:00 AM PT
The moon squares Uranus on Sunday, creating rapid mood swings and emotions that could feel abrupt or surprising. As the moon also harmonizes with Chiron, it could feel like our trauma is surfacing at warp speed. Of course… family gatherings can trigger painful emotions. Be mindful— even if you aren’t the one experiencing high highs and low lows, the people around us are feeling this energy too.
♌️ MOON QUINCUNX ♓️ MARS (17º) 3:00 PM PT
The moon makes an uncomfortable connection to Mars, which could make it feel like we’re losing steam as the weekend winds down. The burst of energy we received Saturday morning is more difficult to align with now. The Leo moon wants us to play, but it will be harder to go with the flow right now.
♌️ MOON SQUARE ♉️ SUN (18º) 5:00 PM PT
The moon squares the sun, marking its first quarter phase. This can make us feel like our emotions are at odds with our energy. While we want to keep the fun going under the Leo moon, the sun in Taurus asks us to slow down and find stable ground before a new week. This can manifest as anxiety or stress about the week ahead.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
This Mother’s Day could feel a bit different than years past. Surprises are possible… and so are emotional outbursts. Saturday’s energy made it easy to express our affections for others and lean into love… but on Sunday, the first quarter moon in Leo could cause a bit of agitation. We start the day with a square between the moon and Uranus, creating an energy of disruption. Chiron connects with the wound as well, making us easily triggered. Give yourself grace if this Mother’s Day brings up difficult emotions. On Sunday night, the Leo moon makes an imbalanced connection to Mars and clashes with the Taurus sun. We could lose steam quickly or find ourselves feeling a bit anxious or restless ahead of a new week. Channel your energy with intention today and try not to let your pride (or ego) get the best of you.
