Daily Astro Insight – Friday, July 6th, 2018

Hello!

The Moon remains in Aries all day today. Aries is symbolic for the energy of Spring time; therefore it relates to all things which correspond to new beginnings such as initiation and birth. When the Moon, symbolic of our instinctual and emotional responses, habits and our ability to nurture, moves through the sign of Aries, those aspects of ourselves take on the Aries energy. We may have quick emotional responses and it may be harder to reason as we are responding more impulsively to the world around us. This can be a great energy for getting things done or when courage is required to face situations but can require restraint when relating to others in a balanced way as it’s easier to see our point of view.

The Moon squares Pluto in Capricorn until 12:54pm (MST). Moon/Pluto times can produce intense emotions; stemming from unconscious ‘shadow’ material in our psyches. Sometimes people can become suspicious or controlling due to fear produced by the inability to see what is motivating them and that which lays hidden beneath the surface. The best way to handle this energy is to be willing to look at ourselves with a penetrating eye; maybe time alone is needed to facilitate this as being a silent witness to our experience can lead to transformation. If necessary, this energy can be useful for clearing debris, not only from our own unconscious, but can also be a very powerful energy used to clear the decks in any situation that is truly not in alignment with our Soul. Pluto in Capricorn wants measured transformation. In Cardinal signs (Aries/Capricorn) this combination may try to achieve it’s goals at all costs; throwing the baby out with the bathwater so to speak.

The Moon trines Venus in Leo the remainder of the day. Ah…this energy will be a welcomed change for the evening. There will be a desire to enjoy life. Aries and Leo are both leadership signs, while the Moon and Venus seek comfort and pleasure. Our emotional response to the world will be colored by love, beauty and sociability.This is a very creative energy or simply a time to find pleasure in the things around us.

Have a beautiful day!
