Today's transition from fiery Aries into peaceful Taurus feels for me like that time after a thunderstorm when the world feels washed clean. The intense energy of the storm has passed, leaving the air charged, renewed and full of possibility. Streams run clear and strong, the ground is dark and wet. Everything green soaks up the energy, every cell plump and firm.Knowing the storm will pass, we can enjoy its intensity. Right now, the Aries Moon flows bright energy with both Venus in playful, dramatic Leo (trine) and Neptune in electric Aquarius (sextile). Venus and Neptune oppose each other, a lively dialogue about the balance between individual creative expression and the needs of the collective. The Aries Moon wants action on both fronts, calling us to move toward the deepest desires of our hearts.
Equally powerful is a grand trine of goddesses in the sky now, as the Moon trines the asteroid Ceres, the grain mother, in generous Sagittarius. Embracing each other in fire, the element of transformation, Mother Demeter, fierce maiden Artemis (Moon in Aries), and queenly Isis (Venus in Leo) grab our hands and pull us into their cosmic dance, opening our hearts to new possibilities.
The Moon enters her time-between-times, the void of course, at 5:25pm EDT as the sextile to Neptune comes exact. Here she rests until 8:30pm EDT, when she greets us warmly in steady, patient Taurus.
Our time of transformation is not over, though. Her first aspects will be a sextile with Chiron the healer, followed by a trine to Pluto the initiator. Whatever the storm brought forward can now be healed and given a new form.
