This week we’re in the afterglow of the Leo Full Moon, where we seek to apply and integrate the insights that emerged under the bright light of the Moon.
The Moon energises the signs of Virgo, Libra and Scorpio.
It’s an eventful week, with Saturn now at his station degree, Jupiter going direct and Venus + Mars changing signs.
Here’s your daily play by play:
Tuesday:
– Sun square Saturn
This is a heavy energy that pits the desires of the self (Sun) against the demands of responsibility (Saturn). Deadlines matter, which might require extra effort. If you’ve over committed, be practical about scaling back. Adjust timetables according to reality. This energy has a melancholy tone, and, in fixed signs, can be rigid. Saturn is cold/dry, so you might benefit from remedial measures like warm baths/showers, saunas, time in the sun, exercise, warm foods like soup or music that’s less structured, like Jazz. In play Tues/Wed
– Jupiter direct
Since October Jupiter has been backtracking through the first part of Gemini, bringing some delays. As Jupiter turns around and begins moving forward again, plans or projects that have been stalled since October start to gain traction. More on this energy here.
Wednesday + Thursday
– Virgo Moon
Dealing with details and getting organised is supported as the Moon in Virgo seeks order and reconnects with routine. Think back to basics, with a focus on productivity.
Friday + Saturday
– Libra Moon lights up the third air sign (Jupiter in Gemini + Sun, Mercury & Mars in Aquarius). Focus is on communication, connection, ideas and intelligence. Network + socialise.
Saturday
– Venus in Aquarius. Venus changes her tune, shifting into free spirited Aquarius. Celebrate indiviudality and resist pressure to conform, especially about those Venus ruled areas in your life. (Know your chart? Find the houses ruled by Taurus and Libra – these are your personal Venus houses and topics.)
– Mars into Pisces. Drive now comes from the heart, as Mars in a water sign encourages action based on intuition. Passion for creative or spiritual pursuits emerges. Mars is strong in water signs than in air (where he’s been) so this brings a boost to the Mars ruled ares of your like (see Venus note above if you need some DIY tips).
Sunday
– Scorpio Moon. A deep, intense and emotional energy helps you dive into normally taboo topics. Truths must be revealed. The Moon aligns with Saturn bringing confrontations based on what is, not what you want things to be. Privacy counts, as does being quietly true to you.
