Good Morning,

The Moon has moved into the sign of Libra. Libra is an Air energy ruled by Venus; the planet which represents relationships, expressing beauty, charm, and seeking harmony; often through communication. The Cardinal mode of Libra brings it drive to get what it desires, while seeking balance between the self and others, and can give Libra a vacillating quality. The statement having “an iron hand with a velvet glove” has been associated with Libra. I find it an interesting description, having a Libra Ascendant myself, as that exact statement was once used to describe me!

The Moon is conjunct Venus in Libra until 12:05pm (MST). This is an enjoyable and pleasant time. We may not be inclined to do much that requires demanding physical effort as Venus has a receptive quality which wants to attract to oneself. The Moon/Venus balances the emotional expression with heightened aesthetic sensibility and can be  expressed well through artistic pursuits. This is a great time to enjoy the pleasures of life while contemplating what we desire to feel good in relationships.

The Moon sextiles Mercury retrograde in Leo until 8:09pm (MST). This is the first time the Moon has connected with Mercury retrograde since the Eclipse on 8.11.18. We may be revisiting the topic of ‘balance’ in relationships; specifically related to our hearts desires.

The Moon in Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn for the remainder of the evening. Moon/Pluto times can be challenging because the emotions may become volatile. Moon in Libra may not want to ‘rock the boat’ but Pluto in Capricorn seeks transformation of outworn structures.

Make it a great day!
