The sun may be in Scorpio, but let’s talk about this week’s lunar transits and how they may affect our daily lives!
Monday, October 24th
This morning, the moon in Libra formed a trine with Saturn in Aquarius. Under this trine, we see things clearly and tackle our goals with a great level of dedication and care. We feel organized and responsible. There is a desire to sort out our space as well as our thoughts. We are setting our intentions with care and consideration. There is no immediate rush to see our plans come to fruition. We are happy to take methodical and deliberate steps in achieving our goals.
At noon, the moon forms a conjunction with Mercury in Libra. This conjunction can inspire our business sense. We are discerning, capable, and mentally aware. Now is a wonderful time to create our business plan. This preparation will lead to success in the future.
Around dinner time, the moon forms a trine with Mars in Gemini. Under this trine, we are endowed with great physical and mental energy. You may have struggled with hardships recently, but you are pushing through and persevering. The wind is in our sails and nothing can get in your way.
About an hour later, the moon forms a square with Pluto in Capricorn. Under this placement, we feel anxious and hypersensitive. At this time, it may be tempting to get lost in our own imaginations. A little wishful thinking never hurt anyone. But be careful not to indulge in escapist fantasies too much, or else you might neglect your real-world obligations.
Tuesday, October 25th
In the wee hours of the morning, the moon moves into passionate Scorpio. This moon is increasing our sensuality and spontaneity. However, it is also enhancing our resentment and aggressiveness. Our friskiness can quickly give way to conflict. Lunar Scorpio is also inspiring our adventurous side. We have a strong desire to visit new places and have new experiences. This desire is amplified by our adaptability.
A few hours later, the sun in Scorpio forms a conjunction with the moon, creating an unpredictable new moon. Under this placement, we are on edge and easily agitated. We may experience intense mood swings. This new moon may cause friction with our loved ones. Arguments with our friends and family may occur. We may feel restless, and struggle to find our peace of mind. At this time, it may be beneficial to find some quiet solitude. We may find peace in meditation. Or it may be wise to take a personal day.
As we get ready for the day, the moon forms a conjunction with Venus in Libra. Under this conjunction, we feel particularly compassionate. The moon rules our emotions and Venus guides our values and relationships. When they are in this position, we desire and seek harmonious relationships, particularly with strong, maternal figures. We also pursue creative endeavors. Now is a wonderful time to express ourselves through art or poetry.
Wednesday, October 26th
In the middle of the morning, the moon forms an opposition with Uranus in Taurus. Under this opposition, we are fanatical and easily irritated. Our moods may change rapidly and we may have trouble adapting to unforeseen circumstances. At this time, we may feel like we have been thrown off our course. We feel particularly eccentric and our idiosyncrasies may alienate the ones we love. We may need time to gather our thoughts so that we may effectively communicate with our loved ones.
A couple of hours later, the moon forms a square with Saturn. Under this placement, we find it difficult to hold onto the positivity we felt earlier in the day. We may feel depressed or unsatisfied with our current situation and find it difficult to express our true feelings.
In the early evening, the moon forms a trine with Neptune in Pisces. Under this trine we are innovative and have a great enthusiasm for life. We have an appreciation for the beauty around us as well as within us. We feel artistic and attractive. Now is the time for us to put our imaginations to good use and pursue some creative endeavors.
Thursday, October 27th
Right after midnight, the moon forms a sextile with Pluto. Under this sextile our tender disposition reawakens. We feel every emotion deeply and distinctively. We desire to travel to new places where we have never been. Give into these desires. Be open to new experiences.
As we begin to wake up, the moon enters high-spirited Sagittarius. We feel impassioned and overzealous, under this moon. We may feel like we have a fire within us that can not be controlled very easily. If we can find a way to calm our nerves, this may be a great time for self-reflection. Lunar Sagittarius can help us enlighten and educate ourselves. This is an ideal time to settle the important matters at hand that may be causing you stress.
Just minutes later, the moon forms a trine with Jupiter in Aries. Under this transit, we feel cheerful and generous. We are attracting those around us with our optimism and inspiring others with our altruistic pursuits. Now is a great time to revisit that project you have been working on. This project may help to inspire and comfort others.
Friday, October 28th
This afternoon, the moon forms a sextile with Saturn. Now is not the time to be impetuous. We must set our intentions using great deliberation. We are taking ownership of the things that are in our control. Our organizational talent is thriving under this sextile. Now is a great time to lead a project at work or tackle any projects at home.
This evening, the moon forms a square with Neptune. Under this placement, we are passive and anxious. We may feel extra sensitive and can be easily hurt by the words and actions of those around us. This hypersensitivity can lead us to direct our insecurities inward. We may be unkind and dishonest with ourselves. At times like this, self-care is very important.
