Moon in Aquarius Today

The Moon continues her journey through innovative Aquarius today, from the middle degrees to the late. About 3:00 am EDT, she reaches 13 degrees Aquarius, creating an inconjunct angle-of-adjustment to the South Node and Venus in Cancer, a sign that is nurturing and protective, but deeply committed to tradition. And yet, Cancer is the Moon's home sign. Perhaps the Moon wants to say that sometimes the only security lies in letting go of the old and swimming toward a new shore.

A challenging square to Mercury in Taurus, about 2:45 pm EDT, seems to offer the same message: Thinking (Mercury) can't keep plowing the same, familiar furrows (Taurus) if we are to move ahead. The Aquarian Moon is ready for new thoughts, new plans, and a new day.

For the rest of Wednesday, the Moon has plenty of space to create the long-range plans that Aquarius loves: bright visions for a future in which we work together to solve our problems, creating communities that help each of us find our unique gifts for the collective.
