This Sun day invites us to reflect on the wisdom we’ve gained. As Venus wraps up her 40-day retrograde, she sits at an uncomfortable standstill today. It could feel like our relationships and finances are stagnant too. This pause gives us a moment to assess our values and how they align with the life we’re currently living. The Aries moon squares Pluto this morning, making it tempting to try to force or control anything that’s not moving as quickly as we’d like. Outbursts and power struggles are possible. When the waning moon enters Taurus, we can relax into a slower pace more easily. Connect with nature and give anything no longer serving you back to Mother Earth. There’s mastery in letting go.

Feeling triggered? The waning Aries moon makes us prone to being reactive. An overnight trine to Venus Retrograde might have brought sweet dreams with a side of nostalgia. When the moon meets Chiron Retrograde, old wounds could feel like they’re reopening. The key to healing is reacting differently than a former version of yourself might have. Allowing ourselves to feel old hurts is the first step to finding healing in the present.

As the full moon begins her two-week release, she moves from watery Pisces to fiery Aries! This transition is an invitation to move all of the big feelings that surfaced under the super moon. Taking physical action is especially cathartic now- especially when the moon opposes Mars this afternoon. This planetary tug-of-war could make it hard to decide how to move or where to go though! If you’re feeling irritated or impulsive, slow down and take one intentional step at a time. No need to burn everything down today! Letting go takes time…

Vitality and confidence come naturally today! The waning Aries moon invites us to get our body moving and our blood pumping. Movement is our greatest asset for release today. A harmonious trine between the moon and sun in fire signs gives us plenty of life force energy to support this mission. Fueling our passions and having fun can be cathartic! It’s easy to show up in our fullest expression and share what’s on our heart now.

Letting go makes space for our next evolution. The waning Pisces moon asks us to trust in the process of release. A sextile to Uranus invites us to stay open to the changes happening now- innovation is incoming! A dreamy fog sets in this evening when the moon meets Neptune. Life might not make a whole lot of sense right now, but we have a natural ability to trust in the unknown. Support from Pluto catalyzes the alchemy happening now. Have faith in what’s falling away. The moon charges into Aries late tonight, allowing us to burn off stagnant energy through movement. When in doubt, sweat it out!

We’ve got a LOT going on in the stars to start our week! Motivating Mars moves into meticulous Virgo, making us eager to be productive. Even the smallest actions can bring us closer to our destiny today as Mars harmonizes with the North Node. Meanwhile, Mercury goes on a journey of its own, opposing Pluto and squaring the Nodes of Fate. This configuration is called a Grand Cross, a highly-activating aspect that can force us to change the way we see the world around us. Conversations and interactions we have today could open us to deeper understanding.

Releasing and creating are part of the same process. The Last Quarter Moon in Aries invites us to find catharsis through movement. Getting our blood pumping can cleanse us of what no longer serves who we are here to become. But this afternoon, Messenger Mercury harmonizes with Neptune, magnifying our imagination. Our intuition can inform creative ideas. It’s easy to empathize with others we’re communicating with too. Late tonight, the moon meets Chiron, triggering past pain. Feeling is healing. Let it out to let it go. Make space.

We experience a sensitive start to the weekend as we start the day under a meeting of the Pisces moon and Neptune. A loose connection to Mercury activates our intuition and imagination, but it’s easy to get lost in a fantasy or overwhelmed by other peoples’ emotions too. Energetic boundaries are a must this morning- Especially as the moon connects with Pluto, bringing deep emotions to the surface. A sense of restlessness could create the urge to force or control a situation. When the moon enters Aries this afternoon, action is our greatest asset to release tension. Movement is medicine today.

Watch yourself! We have an explosive morning in the forecast! The feisty Aries moon makes a tense 90º square to Pluto at the 29th degree, sparking eruptions. Expect intense emotions and ruthless behavior. We can find respite as the moon enters Taurus, inviting us to slow down and ground. As the moon comes into her full surrender, she invites us to trust in what feels safe in the wake of difficult moments. Conjunctions to the North Node and Jupiter tonight show us the path of least resistance ahead. We end the day feeling optimistic and maybe even a little lucky…

We’re moving on a Monday! As the waning moon moves through Aries, there’s no shortage of passion and energy! Harmonies to Mars and Lilith allow us to tap into the confidence needed to take bold action. Physical movement is both potent and cathartic. When the moon meets Wounded Healer Chiron tonight, irritations and triggers could flare. Looking to the source of the pain can show us what we’re ready to release. Remember- shedding old identities invites truer authenticity in the present moment.

Mental stimulation, overwhelming desire, and intense emotions are in the forecast today. As Mercury enters Gemini and Pluto moves back into Capricorn, the two planets harmonize with one another at critical degrees, allowing profound insights and deep realizations to surface. Meanwhile, Venus squares Jupiter, making it all too easy to reach for anything that will bring pleasure! The Pisces moon connects with Neptune and Pluto early this morning, amplifying our intuition heightening our extrasensory abilities. When the waning moon enters Aries, movement is our greatest asset for release. Aspects to Mercury and Venus encourage connection and passion. We’re eager to learn and share our findings with others.

We have a need… a need to succeed! As Jupiter makes a rare square to Pluto, we can experience compulsions to share our beliefs or find new avenues for growth. But it’s all too easy for greed and manipulation to take over during this transit too. If you find yourself focusing on others, challenge yourself to turn inward and dig deeper into your own psyche instead. The dark moon enters Taurus, encouraging us to slow down and ground into nature. As this moon cycle ends, we’re asked to surrender to stillness. Insights about both the past and future are possible as the moon connects with Mercury, Saturn, and the North Node. What lessons has the Universe been trying to teach you? How can you take what you’ve learned to help you walk the path ahead?
