10/2/22 ✨ Mercury Retrograde Ends
✨ Happy SUN Day!
SUN IN LIBRA | MOON IN CAPRICORN
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I know what I want.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♍️ MERCURY RETROGRADE ENDS! (24º) 2:07 AM PT
Mercury Retrograde is over! Crossed wires can straighten back out and stalled plans can resume forward motion again. With Mercury in its home sign of Virgo, clear communication will be much easier to come by now. We’re more effective in how we’re communicating and more detail-oriented in our scheduling. Our mental fog is clearing up too, helping us be more productive. But it’s a good idea to stick to a slower pace for a couple more weeks as the planet of communication is still in its shadow period.
♍️ MERCURY OPPOSITE ♓️ NEPTUNE rx (24º) never exact
Mental focus is hard to come by as Mercury opposes Neptune. This aspect plays out as Mercury stations direct, never becoming exact. This aspect creates a fogginess, making it difficult to clearly comprehend. Misunderstandings are still possible- even as Mercury stations direct. Lean into compassion and imagination and let your mind wander. Perception will be clearer in a week or two.

THE MOON:
🌓 FIRST QUARTER MOON ➡️ CAPRICORN ♑️ (12:38 AM PT)
The first quarter moon enters serious and practical Capricorn overnight, asking us to start climbing toward our long-term goals. The steps we’re taking now are responsible and stable. With our eyes on the end results, we are reassured that even the smallest steps are moving us towards our ultimate destination.
♑️ MOON SQUARE ♈️ JUPITER rx (2º) 5:00 AM PT
We wake up under a square between the moon and Jupiter, giving “go big or go home” energy. This transit gives us a boost of optimism under the practical Capricorn moon. Use this moment to your advantage by leaning into generosity and socializing with others. Watch out for excessive tendencies.
♑️ MOON SQUARE ♎️ VENUS (4º) 8:00 AM PT
Feelings of neediness come to the forefront as the moon squares Venus. But under the cold Capricorn moon, we’re less likely to be affectionate and more likely to channel this energy into our quest for financial abundance. We’ll feel a strong urge to attain monetary success.
♑️ MOON SQUARE ♎️ SUN (4º) 4:00 PM PT
A square between the moon and sun marks the first quarter moon, creating a sense of restlessness. As we process our emotions through a logical lens under the Capricorn moon, the Libra sun makes us crave pleasure and sensuality. This aspect reminds us to stop and smell the flowers along our climb to success- even if only for a moment.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Mercury Retrograde ends today- and not a moment too soon!! But don’t expect crystal clarity just yet. As the planet of communication stations direct, it opposes Neptune, clouding our perception. Misunderstandings are still possible- especially with Mercury in its shadow period. Allow the pace to pick up slowly. The first quarter moon in Capricorn sets a steady rhythm to move forward. With our eyes on the prize, we can take practical steps to help us achieve our goals. But squares to Jupiter, Venus, and the sun throughout the day force us to stop and smell the flowers on our climb towards success. Strong urges today signal deeper desires, but try not to be too impatient to achieve them.
