As the moon moves out of Capricorn, we experience volatile outbursts and depressive lows, which may cause us to seek out gratification in creature comforts and guilty pleasures. But not to worry — as with all transits, this is merely a temporary situation.
Later in the morning, Aquarius wants you to think globally and act locally. As your awareness of social issues increases, so will the desire to learn and listen to your community. And this afternoon, Mercury’s influence helps us to put those emotions into words that could affect change in our communities.
The Moon Is Conjunct Pluto At 3:03 AM
In the early hours of morning, the moon in Capricorn forms a conjunction with Pluto, which is also in Capricorn. This placement may make us prone to emotional outbursts. With both of these celestial bodies in Capricorn, we may feel like we are butting heads with our loved ones. After an outburst, we may feel melancholic and withdrawn. We may find ourselves seeking amusement in activities that allow us to “shut our brains off.”
It is okay to lose ourselves in a videogame or a silly movie for a few hours. It is also okay to take a personal day to relax your mind. Just remember to tend to your responsibilities once you feel good and rested.
The Moon Moves Into Aquarius At 9:09 AM
Around breakfast time, the moon moves into radical Aquarius. You feel a deep sense of camaraderie with those closest to you. You may want to get some friends together for an impromptu adventure, or a fun lunch date.
This placement may also increase your awareness of social issues. You may feel compelled to get involved in certain causes. You may want to take part in community activism. You can also volunteer at a soup kitchen or take part in a city clean-up.
The Moon Is Sextile Mercury At 2:24 PM
In the early afternoon, the moon in scholarly Aquarius forms a sextile angle with Mercury in expressive Aries. Our judgement and resourcefulness flourish under this placement. We are willing to learn and listen to those around us. Our heightened communicative skills are helping to develop our discernment and expand our receptivity.
Now is the opportune time to channel that radical energy from earlier, and utilize your enhanced communication skills to listen to and heed the needs of your community.
