Aries Moon

Today's note covers the Moon's transit through Aries today and tomorrow.

The Moon's in a fiesty Aries mood today, following her own path, then opposing Saturn this afternoon and squaring the Sun overnight. Emotionally, we're ready to step into new territory and make bold moves, adding fire to Saturn and Capricorn's stodgy traditionalism. If the heavy focus on Capricorn these last weeks has you feeling weighted down, today's Moon might provide the spark to get things moving again.

The square to the Sun signals we've reached the first quarter Moon, a time of testing our resolve and commitment. The Aries Moon has the drive to push through to success, if she doesn't get distracted by another tantalizing challenge, so maintain focus and blaze a trail to your New Moon goals.

Meanwhile, Mercury continues his deep conversations with the outer planet cluster: Neptune and Chiron in Aquarius, and Uranus and Jupiter in Pisces. Channels for intuitive guidance are open, so make time to tune in.

By Wednesday afternoon, the Moon reaches the last degrees of Aries, forming flowing sextiles to Neptune and Chiron and semi-sextiles to Uranus and Jupiter. She'll carry Mercury's torch, continuing the vibrant conversation with these outer planets of vision, intuitive, philosophy, healing and mentorship.

Just to show that the won't be held back by Capricorn's limitations, she challenges Mars in Capricorn in square Wednesday at 6pm. Her last connection in Aries is a trine to Sagittarian Mercury is the powerful 29th degree, before entering her time between times just before 10pm EST.

Aries is always direct, and the Moon's messages could not be more clear: focused and energized communication is happening, with abundant guidance available. The Aries Moon isn't shy about reaching for what she wants, so go for it!

The Moon enters patient Taurus just after 10:30pm Wednedsay, offering a quiet night and peaceful sleep following these two days of fiery energy. We can use Taurus' steadiness to reflect on the messages Aries gathers.
