5/22/23 ✨ Mars Square Jupiter
✨ Happy Moon Day!
SUN IN GEMINI | MOON IN CANCER
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am excited about my next steps.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♌️ MARS SQUARE ♉️ JUPITER (1º) 10:12 PM PT
Driven Mars squares off to abundant Jupiter, giving us excess energy! This transit can make us impulsive. Mars is the aggressor of the zodiac- a harsh angle to Jupiter could turn a small tiff into an all-out war. Finding a healthy outlet for your energy today can prevent you from projecting it at someone else. On a more positive note, our actions come from a place of possibility - just beware of rushing into anything or overextending yourself. It could be easy to overbook yourself for the rest of the week in a moment of optimism.

THE MOON:
🌒 WAXING CRESCENT MOON IN CANCER ♋️
The waxing moon makes her homecoming in Cancer, inviting us to come back home to ourselves too. We’re attuned to our emotions and nurtured by people, places, and things that make us feel safe. Being in our comfort zone or around our family will feel good over the coming days.
♋️ MOON TRINE ♓️ SATURN (6º) 8:00 AM PT
A watery trine between the moon and Saturn allows us to start the week feeling responsible and capable of tackling our duties. This is a great transit for consulting with people who have more wisdom with us to glean their advice. We benefit from patience and emotional tenacity.
♋️ MOON SEXTILE ♉️ MERCURY (8º) NOON PT
As the moon gets support from Mercury this afternoon, we can make practical sense of our feelings. Our mind and our heart are working hand-in-hand now. Talking or writing about our emotions can help us process them.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
We start our week with ample motivation as Mars squares Jupiter. There’s no shortage of energy to work with today- just try not to be too impulsive! An abundance of optimism could make it all too easy to overcommit or overextend ourselves. The Cancer moon keeps us connected to our intuition and attuned to our emotions. A trine to Saturn brings patience and maturity. We are aligned with our sense of responsibility and drawn to people who have wisdom to share. This afternoon, the moon gets support from Mercury, creating synergy between our mind and our heart. We can process our feelings more easily by talking or writing about them.
