It’s just another manic Monday! Taurus and Aquarius square off with each other three different times throughout the day, causing us to feel on edge and overwhelmed. On the positive side, the day will end with Mercury moving into Gemini, increasing our desire for knowledge.
The Sun Is Square Saturn at 5:28 AM
Early this morning, the sun in uncompromising Taurus forms a square with Saturn in emotionally restrained Aquarius. We may feel timid and hesitant under this square. You could find yourself trying to hide any fears or anxieties under a guise of highly contrived self-confidence. The need to “fake it until we make it,” and push ourselves too hard to persevere and succeed is rather strong here.
Be kind to yourself. You are human, not a machine. Overworking yourself could create more obstacles and stress. In times like this, an authoritative masculine figure may be able to provide guidance.
Mercury Is Square Jupiter at 6:17 AM
Later, Mercury in Taurus forms a tense square with Jupiter in Aquarius. Taurus is exacerbating our obstinance. The desire we felt earlier to overwork ourselves has not gone away and we continue to push ourselves to the point of becoming impetuous. Aquarius is enhancing our recklessness. We may not be taking the time to consider our actions.
As we become more and more overwhelmed, it may be more difficult to keep promises to ourselves and to the ones we love. We may have to take a step back and reevaluate some things. Our views on work and self-care may need to be examined.
The Moon Is Square Uranus at 11:01 AM
Around mid-morning, the moon in Aquarius forms a square with Uranus in Taurus. This square has us all on edge. Taurus’ stubborn streak is persisting as Aquarius grows increasingly irritable and eccentric. Our moods and situations may change drastically, causing us to feel derailed.
In terms of romance, Taurus and Aquarius usually bring out our rebelliousness or luxurious sensuality. But under this transit, our sensuality may prove to be a bit too intense or strained, causing us to alienate our partners. The isolation and irritability may create a desire for self-destructive tendencies but we must avoid the urge.
The Moon Is Conjunct Saturn at 3:10 PM
This afternoon, the moon in Aquarius forms a conjunction with Saturn also in Aquarius. The irritable energy from earlier is intensifying under this conjunction. This transit can make us feel depressed and introverted. It may be hard to communicate with our loved ones, which could lead us to feel unsatisfied or unfulfilled in our relationships. We may feel particularly isolated from an authoritative feminine figure. It could be difficult, but you may find it beneficial to reach out to a close confidant, a spiritual leader, or a therapist.
The Sun Is Square The Moon at 3:54 PM
About an hour later, the sun in Taurus forms a square with the moon in Aquarius. Taurus is once again forming a square with Aquarius, but thankfully it is the last one for the day. This square can cause us to be at odds with our family, our colleagues, and current or potential romantic partners. Our oppositional nature is enhanced and may lead to public arguments. You may have to extract yourself from certain situations before you say or do something you might regret.
Mercury Moves Into Gemini at 10:47 PM
In the evening, Mercury moves into inquisitive Gemini. Thankfully this dour day is ending on a high note. As Mercury moves into Gemini, our minds become sharp, studious, and quick-witted. We are interested in languages and economic matters, and we have a great desire to read and absorb knowledge. Give in to your curiosity about other cultures and urges to travel and expand your horizons.
