Monday morning, the Venus-ruled Libra Moon trines Pluto in Aquarius, then it spends the rest of the day sextiling first the Sun in Sagittarius then Mars in Leo. Take charge early and maximize a mood to begin — off like a rocket! A beautiful, gracious, and profoundly intense rocket ready to champion change and improve lives.
After that, as one stage falls away, another fills in to further the project. Take breaks as you need them, because you WILL catch a second wind. By nighttime, Sagittarius Mercury stations retrograde, poised to turn and head back through the sign. If you manage your mood, you set the stage to seamlessly fold any disruptions into the mix. Not too fast, not too slow. The Libra Moon mood is a fantastic meter for success.
On Tuesday, the Libra Moon trines retro Jupiter in Mercury-ruled Gemini, so the same advice holds true. The inclination may be to take on more, entertaining more and faster. That works as long as it works, so be mindful of your ability to keep up safely. Both Monday and Tuesday, the Sun actively trines Mars, but Mars is slowing to take its own retro turn soon. Both days are ideal for legging it out and getting your goals met, but slowed or retro Mars and Mercury mean paying extra attention to the details and taking a second look at what we’re doing as we plan or do it.
The Libra Moon then goes on square Capricorn Venus and oppose retro Chiron in Aries, creating a cardinal t-square and highlighting the Venus-Chiron square (exact Wednesday night). When we’re cruising with such great energy, of course we get a stick in the spokes! This can be a good thing (for real). Would you rather have a flat tire out in the wilderness or right in front of a tire center? Look for the flaws, and fix them NOW. Sure it’s not exactly pleasant, but these are not new flaws. Better safe than sorry.
Nighttime and overnight into Wednesday, the Libra Moon sextiles retro Mercury. You may need to bring something up again, and that may be key to fixing those flaws. Tell it all and tell the truth, but do it nicely. You catch more flies with honey, and the sextile hands you a full honey jar.
Wednesday morning, the Sun-Mars trine is exact, and the Libra Moon cruises through the end of the sign till evening (when it hits Scorpio). Keep up the good work as the mood still emphasizes the Venus-Chiron square. Keep an eye on that honey; you’ll want to keep using it. The Scorpio Moon squares sign-ruler Pluto, then the Venus-Chiron square perfects. The Moon squares Mars through the night.
Will tempers flare? Well, they’re set up for that. It’s a bit fighty and bitey. But if you’re not the type to go off the rails, it could just mean that the smoother ride from earlier in the week is over. Perhaps we go under the radar in contemplation to puzzle out the future (based on the past). Retro Mercury heads back toward opposition with retro Jupiter and trine to retro Chiron. Venus picks up a trine to retro Uranus in Venus-ruled Taurus. We stand to gain insight and impact if we don’t go off half cocked. What if there’s something even better out there? Or if we can improve what we’ve got.
Thursday morning, the Scorpio Moon squares Mars; it then goes on to trine Saturn in Pisces by night. Pick a pace that fits your mood and capacity, one you can stick with — and power on through in relative peace and safety.
Friday morning’s Scorpio Moon moves through opposition to the midpoint of the sextile of retro Chiron and retro Jupiter, the point of a yod. Put yourself in motion in tune with your mood. As you get going, you’ll find yourself inspired. Try setting out after old problems where you’re stuck for solutions. The Moon then sextiles Venus, and getting results is a matter of sourcing your options and doing the work.
By Friday afternoon, the Scorpio Moon opposes retro Uranus, and the mood is challenged to stay afloat, an emotional roller coaster (perhaps). However, the Moon also trines retro Neptune in Pisces, so that roller coaster might be a hoot and a laugh. Who knows? Maybe don’t have too much to drink, and stay away from bottles marked “drink me”. It’s a wonder worthy of Alice.
