Now that Martyrs Day is over, Tuesday afternoon sees the end of Moon in Pisces, a wrap up of the Venus-Saturn energy poking a sensitive Moon. The influence is passing and the end of the Pisces Moon provides the juice to let it go. Whatever your mood, good or bad, it can go with the the Neptune fog as we head into Aries mood. All mope and no play makes Jack a dull boy! This is an active Moon!

The Pisces Moon spends much of the day making close contact with Mercury alone. Its ruler, also in Pisces, opposes Virgo Mars. This overall combination can result in procrastination. That can feel great in the moment, but at the end of the day when the Moon sextiles Sun-Jupiter, squares Venus and quincunxes Saturn, hooBOY can it come back to bite you.

The Moon is in Pisces for Mothers Day. My girls love to go to the mall and I abhor it. All week I’ve put them off and yesterday I said, “Look, I’ll take you tomorrow,” subtext, “Just get off my case about it!” Well it’s tomorrow and their patience is at an end. They let me sleep in, brought me milk and scones and let me finish my coffee but now they’re hanging around giving me scathing glances. I was deep in the middle of belting out the Tammi Terrell part of “You’re All I Need To Get By” when I was interrupted by “Are you ready to go?”

Friday, all the way up till evening, the Aquarius Moon creates a yod with Uranus and Mars. Chiron fills in the focus spot like an arrow in a bow. This sets up a situation where one can find themselves emotionally triggered by a past wound. The focus is Mars, action, but Mars in a thinking sign. You can act out or you can act to affect healing. With Neptune involved (conjunct Chiron), which is which may not be readily apparent.

The Moon spends most of the day at the end of Capricorn in a trine with Jupiter and the Sun in Taurus. This keeps the mood from turning maudlin, for the most part. It’s hard to get down on yourself when you’re JUST THAT AWESOME! Still, the involvement of Saturn in Libra emphasizes responsibility and work, so if you’re not feelin’ it, try putting your nose to the grindstone.

I must admit, I’m not particularly fond of the Capricorn Moon. I could stand up for it, having a Cap Moon myself, but the reality is it’s not a cozy moon as Saturn energies don’t blend so well with moon stuff. That said, however, this looks like the best Saturn Moon I’ve seen in, well, many a moon! It’s conjunct Pluto but grounded with Mars in Virgo and Mercury newly in Taurus. Add to this, Chiron and Neptune in Pisces and you also have the ability to transcend, materially, emotionally and through your senses. It’s a kite!

The daily Astrology Today posts are pretty general. They’re a snapshot of what’s going on in the sky and I give a general interpretation for those energies. But that interpretation is just a backdrop, a stage for each individual’s energy. Perhaps a better way to put it is that it’s the music and the melody of a song; you are the tempo, the key, the lyrics and the singer.

With the Moon in Sagittarius opposing Venus in Gemini in a mystic rectangle with Saturn opposing Mercury across the Libra-Aries axis there’s an element of ease that can result in taking pleasure in talk about action but not moving to the action itself. The planning, the yapping, the shopping scenarios feel good, so why rush the implementation when you’re still having fun fleshing out the possibilities?

Early on, the Sagittarius Moon squares Mars in Virgo and Chiron in Pisces. A risk-taking, inflated mood doesn’t sit well with the general tenor of realistic action and sand in your shoes. However, with Saturn on the midpoint of Mars and the Moon, slowing down and doing the right thing is one way to sooth the irritation. However, it’s unlikely to be a big deal with the Moon’s ruler in solid Taurus in aspect to Saturn as well.

Like many people I’m heading into the full moon in Scorpio wondering what’s going to happen, how it will affect me. I’ve decided however it manifests I’ll do my best to go with the flow. It is, after all, a water moon! With the Sun in Taurus, an earth sign and plenty of support with Mars and Pluto in earth as well, I’m going with trying to stay grounded in feeling good about myself.
