In the wee hours of the morning, already past by the time you read this, the Aquarius Moon was the point person in an interesting yod. Aquarius has no problems with being the point of focus, so let's look at who's involved in this intriguing aspect.
A yod is an aspect that looks like narrow triangle, in which planets sharing energy in sextile across the bottom are each making inconjunct angles-of-adjustment to the planet at the apex. The apex becomes a point of destiny, where attention needs to be paid to balance the inconjunct energies coming from each side.
Across the bottom of this yod, we have the Sun, Mercury, and the South Node, all in Cancer ... a concentration of nurturing, protectiveness, tradition and (generally speaking) resistance to change. On the other side at the bottom, we find Mars in Virgo, careful, analytical, and pragmatic ... ready to change what needs to be changed, but moving forward with practical care.
And both side point to the Moon in Aquarius, that awkward combination of emotional intensity and rational coolness, deep connection with the past and revolutionary commitment to the future, that this combination represents.
How is this yod to be resolved?
One approach is to look straight down the triangle, to see what is between the corners at the bottom. And there we see Venus, force of relationship and creativity, in passionate, playful, expressive Leo. The Aquarius Moon will oppose Venus exactly at 6:15pm EDT.
The opposition and the yod combine to remind us that our relationships and our creative expressions are both vital in this time of change. As we move into the future at what feels like increasing speed, we can best know what to bring and what to release by being attentive to the quality of our relationships, and by connecting with our creative visions and expressing them.
