Today, Leo and Virgo are fighting for dominance! This morning, Leo may grace us with courage and assertiveness. But that self-assuredness can lead to an over-inflated ego. Later in the day, the moon moves into Virgo, giving us a burst of productivity. But this moon may also put us on edge and make us restless.
The Moon Is Conjunct Mercury at 1:45 AM
Early this morning, the moon in confident Leo forms a conjunction with Mercury, also in Leo. At this time, Leo is endowing us with excellent judgement and clarity. This conjunction can inspire our business sense. We are discerning, capable, and mentally aware.
Now is a wonderful time to create our business plan. This preparation will lead to success in the future.
The Moon Is Opposite Jupiter at 8:26 AM
Around breakfast time, the moon in Leo forms an opposition with Jupiter in temperamental Aquarius. Under this opposition, we do not like to be ordered around. We are on edge and may behave in a defiant manner towards authority figures. Arguments and problems may arise with our loved ones and we may feel distant from a maternal figure.
Our short temper may alienate us from the ones we love. When we feel alienated, we may be tempted to indulge in substances that can offer escapism. We must be careful not to overindulge because our liver is especially vulnerable at this time.
The Moon Moves into Virgo at 10:54 AM
Later in the morning, the moon moves into pragmatic Virgo. The lunar Virgo makes us methodical and inquisitive. We feel especially productive and accountable at this time. Under this moon, we are health conscious. We want to take care of ourselves physically, emotionally, and mentally.
We are focused on our professional life. We may be busy, but we enjoy the challenge. Fulfilling obligations and promises are at the forefront of our minds.
Venus Is Opposite Neptune at 8:00 PM
This evening, Venus in Virgo forms an opposition with Neptune in escapist Pisces. Under this opposition, we are uncomfortable in our own skin. We feel self-conscious and reserved.
At this time, our more erotic and fanciful desires may go unfulfilled. If we find ourselves romantically frustrated, we might find solace in artistic endeavors. Create if you can’t communicate. However, if we cannot find a creative outlet, we might fall victim to insidious influences.
The Moon Is Conjunct Mars at 11:42 PM
Later, the moon in Virgo forms a conjunction with Mars, also in Virgo. Under this conjunction, we feel on edge and irritable.
Mars rules our instincts and defenses. When coupled with a high-strung lunar Virgo our over-critical nature can get the better of us. We must be mindful of these tendencies or else we can become argumentative — or in the worst cases, violent. Exercise and meditation can aid in our stress relief since this transit can cause emotional and physical tension.
