“No one is without troubles, without personal hardships and genuine challenges.  That fact may not be obvious because most people don’t advertise their woes and heartaches.  But nobody, not even the purest heart, escapes life without suffering battle scars.”

Richelle E. Goodrich, Smile Anyway

The Full Aquarius Moon today (5:29 PDT/22° Aquarius-Leo), enhances intellectual curiosity and research, but we might also find ourselves becoming overly defensive when our point is questioned. There’s a Venus conjunct the Leo Sun today as well, delivering an abundance of creative energy wedded to incredibly insightful intellectual acumen.

Mercury finally moves out from the shadow of its most recent retrograde trajectory, allowing us to communicate safely once more, this energy balancing out some of the intensity of the Moon. What we must watch out for is pleasing others, as that’s sometimes what Venus prefers. Not necessarily in a weak, sycophantic way, but in a more manipulative manner. No one needs the approval of another to be one’s authentic self. Remain always true to yourself and don’t “go along to get along.” This does not command the respect you deserve.

Things may not go as planned today as the Full Moon fires up emotions and challenges in ourselves and those around us. They may try to drag us into the fray for no better reason than “misery loves company.”

Moon opposes Venus later on, the energy of which adds fuel to the day’s fires, then accosts fiesty Mars this evening. Mercury squares Uranus first thing tomorrow morning, cautioning us in using computers, cars, and phones. All in all, there are challenges today that may make you wonder why you ever left your bed.

Tomorrow is another story.
