Hello!

The Moon remains in Capricorn all day today. Our focus remains on accomplishing things in the material world. We can become so focused on work or duty, other feelings move into the background. Saturn, the principal of contraction and limitation for the purpose of containing and focusing energy pervades our emotional expression. Staying present can help us avoid the trap of critical or pessimistic thinking.

The Moon sextiles Jupiter in Scorpio all day until 7:32pm (MST). The sextile between the Moon and Jupiter offers an opportunity to lighten up our emotional response to the world. But, with Jupiter in Scorpio, we may be expanding our and others perspective through looking deeply into things and transforming. We can work with this process if we embrace the job.

The Moon in Capricorn sextiles Neptune in Pisces for the remainder of the night. Moon/Neptune times invite a soft energy into our lives. We can feel a compassionate and empathetic emotional response in our relationships. Capricorn can ground Pisces energy so that emotional sensitivity can lead to creative and imaginative pursuits or moving our relationships forward.

Mercury retrogrades at 23′ 26″ of Leo at 11:03pm (MST) and remains there for a little over 3 weeks. Mercury, the planet of communication, takes center stage as it appears to move backward from our viewpoint on Earth. Everything dealing with communication such as scheduling appointments, technology and travel can become sources of confusion, breakdown or delay. During this time, do our best not to let these experience frustrate us. Mercury retrograde times can cause us to slow down in relation to all thing Mercurial. We can focus more on reviewing and clarify Mercury related issues. In the sign of Leo, the focus on Mercury retrograde can be on how we respond to these challenges: are we dignified, noble, authentic and outspoken or are we self-centered and dramatic without considering others? The choice is yours!

Make it a great day!
