Astrology Today: July 30, 2012 – Emotional Effort
“I believe you have my stapler.”
–Milton, “Office Space”
Monday morning the Moon in Capricorn sextiles Neptune in Pisces and both quincunx retrograde Mercury in Leo. Capricorn Moon finds satisfaction in work. Tied in to Neptune there’s an opportunity to shape emotional reality and find bliss. With the focus of this interaction on Mercury, there’s the likelihood of needing to readdress communications and previous perceptions in your way of thinking. This can be work, but it can also raise your spirits.
Later the Moon meets Pluto and moves into the focus of the Sun-Jupiter sextile forming a similar yod. There’s a heightened ego energy aimed at Pluto, depth and power. When the Moon joins in, there’s a period of time when you can, if you wish, take your own emotional temperature and gauge how well you’re doing in balancing the shadow (collective and personal) with your own vibrant ego energies.
When the Moon moves past its conjunction with Pluto it squares the Mars-Pallas Athene opposition. This heralds a challenge, one that can hinge on seeing (feeling, really) how well your actions match up with your understanding of how things work. Are you acting for or against your own best interest? With Mars in Libra and Pallas in Aries this can also be seen in the balance of other to self in one on one relationship (even in a business setting). There’s the challenge to assess this balance, judge it, and either act or change your mental model.

Great post, satori…I’ve been thinking a lot about exactly this lately:
“take your own emotional temperature and gauge how well you’re doing in balancing the shadow (collective and personal) with your own vibrant ego energies”
I think I’m okay but every time I purge something and speak about my ugly side I end up feeling alienated…and unevolved. Ha ha. I know it’s just a feeling. Having 8th House Leo Saturn is very weird sometimes.
And-it’s my Lunar Return tomorrow! Woo hoo!
