The Moon is waxing – growing – through Gemini, Cancer, Leo and Virgo. This is a week of shifting focus, as Venus, Mars and the Sun change signs.
You may feel the mental fog lifting, as Mercury settles into Aries after an extended spell in Pisces. Clarity returns and delayed decisions finalised.
Monday: Communication
A Moon/Jupiter conjunction highlights big, bright and bold ideas. Monday is ideal for networking and all kinds of communication. Catch up on emails, update social media and share your ideas. It’s all about interaction with others.
Communication planet Mercury changed signs over the weekend, entering Aries. The fiery, to the point energy of Aries makes it easier to express yourself directly and make overdue decisions.

Tuesday: Quality + Stability
Venus settles into Taurus, one of her home signs. Love, beauty and money matters adopt a more settled quality. This is a slow and steady vibe, where the love of pleasure drives decisions.
Choose quality over quantity, and make time to stop and smell the roses.
The Moon enters Cancer and aspects Venus in Taurus. Cancer Moon offers a sensitive, caring and protective quality which encourages sticking with what you know, and staying close to home (or family).
Wednesday: Drive, Determination + Action
Mars is cazimi, which is the absolute best condition for a planet. Today and tomorrow are ideal for pursuing any and all Mars related topics. Generally this means action, decisiveness, progress and putting yourself first.
Check your chart to see which houses are ruled by Aries and Scorpio – these are your personal topics of focus. For example, if you have Aries on the 7 and Scorpio on the 2, relationships and money are personally charged topics under Mars cazimi.
Thursday: Pushing Forward
The active first quarter Moon occurs today, across the responsive cardinal signs. Like a newly sprouted plant, you’re ready to push further out and up to achieve your goals. A turning point is reached and if you’re 100% sure of your path, your actions now carry you into new territory. You may need to make adjustments, but don’t lose sight of your goal.

Friday: Caution and Commitment
The Moon enters fixed sign Leo, slowing the pace and asking for due diligence. A square link to Saturn highlights responsibilities, and the need for practical, conservative choices. Adopt the business motto ‘Under promise and over deliver’ to ensure you shine today. Deadlines and responsibilities may be renegotiated due to changing circumstances.
Saturn is in Scorpio and influencing all fixed signs, including Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Find out more in my ebook here.
Saturday: Shifting Circumstances
The Sun and Mars lay down their swords and relax on the couch, as they shift from Aries into Taurus. The pace slows measurably as you realise taking your time is key. Tactile, physical and sensual topics dominate.
Mercury aligns with Uranus unleashing bright ideas and supporting brilliant connections. Unexpected insight hits you as if from nowhere, but now your mind has opened to alternative possibilities the traditional route seems boring.
Life gets a shake up as the impossible becomes possible.
Sunday: Order and Detail
The Moon enters Virgo, adding to the earth emphasis. With four planets (Sun, Mars, Venus and the Moon) in earth signs, the next 48 hours are all about order and organisation.
Little things count so pay attention to the details.
Efficiency is key under the Virgo Moon so focus on reducing waste and streamlining processes and systems.
