7/26/22 ✨ Mercury Square Mars
✨ Happy Mars Day!
SUN IN LEO | MOON IN CANCER
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am the observer of my emotions.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♌️ MERCURY SQUARE ♉️ MARS (14º) 12:12 PM PT
Slow down, turbo! Accidents are possible today as Mercury squares Mars. These two planets are both notorious for quick movements. We might blurt things our or come across as aggressive or defensive in our communication. Arguments can easily erupt as the planet of war clashes with the messenger of the Milky Way. This can also create a general sense of irritability, anxiety, or mental agitation.

THE MOON:
🌘 WANING CRESCENT MOON IN CANCER ♋️
The waning crescent moon is in its home sign, bringing our attention to our true feelings. Whatever emotions are coming up now are asking to be released. This is a time to clear your home and surrender. What do you need to let go of to be ready for the next chapter.
♋️ MOON SQUARE ♈️ JUPITER (8º) 5:00 AM PT
We wake up with a burst of energy as the moon squares Jupiter. We’ll feel optimistic to start the day. We might even feel like waking up especially early and taking the day by storm. But beware of the tendency to overdo it this morning. We could tucker out by mid-day if we expel too much energy too early.
♋️ MOON CONJUNCT ♋️ VENUS AND ♋️ LILITH (10º - 11º) 8:00 AM PT
We’ll be aware of our own pleasure and the power that comes along with it as the moon meets up with Venus and Lilith. We’re nurtured by what feels good this morning. This is a time to give our body what she wants. Self-love can be a potent practice, whether its through comforting food, sexual pleasure, or even simple relaxation. Luxuriate in your body.
♋️ MOON SEXTILE ♉️ MARS (14º) 4:00 PM PT
We get a boost of motivation and drive as the Cancer moon gets support from Mars this afternoon. This transit helps us push forward and move our body. In fact, movement can be a powerful practice of surrender.
♋️ MOON SQUARE ♈️ CHIRON (16º) 8:00 PM PT
Triggers could pop up late Tuesday night as the moon squares Chiron. Painful emotions can show us what we need to release and leave in the current chapter that’s closing.
♋️ MOON SEXTILE ♉️ URANUS AND ♉️ NORTH NODE (18º) MIDNIGHT PT
We end the day with a helpful nudge in the direction of change and innovation. When the moon locks into a supportive angle with Uranus and the North Node, we get a ping of excitement about what the future holds for us. We’re more willing to do open to possibilities and and allow the path ahead to unfold.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Mars Day lives up to its name as the planet of war and aggression clashes with messenger planet Mercury. This transit makes us more defensive, aggressive, and accident prone. Slow down and try not to get ahead of yourself. If you’re feeling irritable, observe the emotions that are surfacing. This with feel natural under the waning Cancer moon. In its final phase before the new moon, this is a time to clear stagnant energy and create space for new creations to be born. We start the day with the moon squaring Jupiter, giving us a surge of energy and optimism. Then, the moon meets up with Venus and Lilith, making us crave pleasure and power. Self-love is a potent practice today. We’ll feel motivated and determined as the moon supports Mars this afternoon, but a square to Chiron this evening could make us triggered or bring up past pain. In the final moments of this Tuesday, the moon supports Uranus and the North Node, helping us get excited about the future and open to the possibilities.
