In the wee hours of the morning, the moon in Leo forms a square with Uranus in Taurus. Our moods continue to be unpredictable under this square. This instability is causing a rift with our romantic partners. Our heightened sensuality and growing irritability are making our relationships run hot and cold. When we feel moody, it is easy to slip into old habits that bring us comfort. This coping mechanism is perfectly alright, as long as it does not lead to self-destructive tendencies.

Around dinnertime, the sun in Aries forms a trine with the moon. Under this trine, we experience levels of harmony that would make a Libra jealous. At this time, we feel physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy. We have a healthy work-life balance and we feel proud of our accomplishments. The relationships with our friends and family are strong and our relationship with our partner is flourishing. Take some time to warm yourself in the glow of your personal and professional achievements. You’ve earned it.

Later, the moon forms an opposition with Saturn in Aquarius. Under this opposition, we may feel restricted and unsatisfied with life. It may be difficult for us to be honest with others about how we feel. We may find it hard to trust others as well. This distrust of others may cause us to feel isolated from our community, especially our loved ones. We may feel alienated from a maternal figure. It may be time to reach out to a close confidant, a spiritual leader, or mental health professional.

Around breakfast time, the moon forms an opposition to Mars in Aquarius. Under this placement, we may be particularly excitable. We might be reckless with our decisions, and become belligerent when things do not go according to plan. We may feel compelled to bottle up our emotions. Be careful when repressing your feelings. Keeping it all inside now could lead to an outburst later.

In the middle of the morning, the moon has moved out of Leo and into Virgo. Under this transit, you are overcome with the need to take care of yourself mentally, emotionally, and physically. You can do some stretches before bed. You can fix yourself a yummy and healthy midnight snack. You can listen to your favorite song or ASMR video to help you relax before you go to sleep. Take care of yourself in a way that makes you feel good and rested.

Later in the afternoon, the moon forms a trine with Mercury in Taurus. Under this trine, we are open-minded and willing to learn. Our minds are sharp and our speech is clear. We think for ourselves and do our own research rather than blindly believing what we are told. At this time, we can easily influence others with our charisma and leadership qualities. However, it is important that we wield this power with great discernment. We want to keep our influence a positive one.

Early this morning, the moon forms an opposition with Venus in Pisces. Under this opposition, we feel every emotion intensely. We feel very passionate but also incredibly inhibited in our relationships. We might find ourselves dissatisfied in our personal lives. It is important that we practice caution because serious injuries could occur at this time.

Just before noon, the moon in Virgo forms a high-spirited trine with Uranus in dedicated Taurus. Under this trine, we feel sharp and ambitious. We are not only working diligently, we are working cheerfully. We are eager to help our friends and colleagues. Our amicable demeanor is helping to influence people in a positive way.

This morning, the moon forms an opposition with Neptune in apprehensive Pisces. Under this opposition, we may suffer from imposter syndrome. We may feel a little off-kilter. Our feelings can be easily hurt, but we may not be upfront with others about how we feel. If your loved ones say or do something that hurts you, tell them. If they get mad at you for standing up for yourself, they are not worth your time.

About thirty minutes later, the moon forms an opposition with Jupiter in Pisces. Under this opposition, we do not like to be ordered around. We may behave in a defiant manner towards authority figures. We are on edge, and this edginess may lead to arguments and problems with our loved ones. Our short temper may alienate us from the ones we love. When we feel alienated, we may be tempted to indulge in substances like alcohol. We must be careful not to overindulge because our liver is especially vulnerable at this time.

Around lunchtime, the moon forms a trine with Pluto in Capricorn. Under this trine, emotions and desires that have laid dormant within us are being brought to the surface. We crave adventure and new experiences. Now is the perfect time to eat at that new restaurant or take part in an activity that you have never tried before. It may be fun to visit a new town and meet new people.

A few hours later, the moon moves into congenial Libra. Under this moon, we feel light-hearted and open-minded. Just as Libra craves balance, we too, desire harmony. At this time, we are concerned with matters of love and our relationships. We are feeling particularly romantic. Spend quality time with your partner. Or if you’re unattached, venture out and meet someone new.
