Taurus is giving us a rebellious streak that would make even the most unruly Aquarius say “whoa, calm down!” Two lunar oppositions and a square are making us feel uncomfortable in our own skin. This discomfort may cause us to seek out extreme thrills. Proceed with caution today.
The Moon Is Square Saturn at 1:22 PM
This afternoon, the moon in Taurus forms a square with Saturn in emotionally restrained Aquarius. Under this square, we feel incredibly restricted. Taurus’ stubborn energy from earlier has not left us. We may feel embittered and unsatisfied with our current situation. Aquarius is causing us to close ourselves off from others. Any openness and honesty we felt earlier is dwindling. We feel secretive and find it difficult to be truthful with our loved ones. At this time, we may be filled with an intense sense of melancholy.
At times like this, it can be easy to isolate yourself from everyone. A little alone time and mental rest may be beneficial. But it may also be helpful to reach out and talk to someone when you feel ready.
Mars Is Opposite Uranus at 1:37 PM
Just fifteen minutes later, Mars in reckless Scorpio forms an opposition with Uranus in stubborn Taurus. Under this opposition, we may feel rowdy and have trouble getting a handle on our emotions.
At this time, we may feel a little too invincible. Our tenacity may cause us to ignore the guidance and advice of people who care about us. We may put ourselves in potentially dangerous situations. It is important to remember that we are not immortal. We should think twice before placing ourselves in harm’s way.
The Moon Is Trine Venus at 7:42 PM
Around dinner time, the moon in Taurus forms a sweet and sentimental trine with Venus in Capricorn. Under this trine, we are open to the idea of love and marriage. We are considerate of our partners’ emotions and desires, and we’re able to anticipate and adapt to each other’s needs.
Our cheery disposition has a positive effect on everyone around us. We are present and ready to help our loved ones with any task, big or small. Peace is our main priority at this time and we avoid conflict to the best of our ability.
The Moon Is Conjunct Uranus at 9:52 PM
A couple of hours later, the moon in Taurus forms a conjunction with Uranus, also in Taurus. This constellation brings out the positive and negative traits of Taurus to an extreme. Under this conjunction we may be stubborn and hard to reason with. We might lack an inner balance and be unwilling to compromise. We also might develop unusual habits or fall back into certain unsavory behaviors.
On a more optimistic note, love may be in the air. Despite the bull-headed energy, Taurus can help to enhance appeal and attraction. At this time, romantic relationships may occur. It simply goes to show that we are all worthy of love even on our bad days.
The Moon Is Opposite Mars at 10:24 PM
This evening, the moon in Taurus forms an opposition to Mars in emotional Scorpio. Under this placement, we may be particularly excitable. We might be reckless with our decisions, and become belligerent when things do not go according to plan. We may be at odds with an authoritative feminine figure in our lives.
With Capricorn and Scorpio fighting against each other, we may feel compelled to bottle up our emotions. Be careful when repressing your feelings. Keeping it all inside now could lead to an outburst later.
