“Emotions, in my experience, aren’t covered by single words. I don’t believe in “sadness,” “joy,” or “regret.” Maybe the best proof that the language is patriarchal is that it oversimplifies feeling. I’d like to have at my disposal complicated hybrid emotions, Germanic train-car constructions like, say, “the happiness that attends disaster.” Or: “the disappointment of sleeping with one’s fantasy.” I’d like to show how “intimations of mortality brought on by aging family members” connects with “the hatred of mirrors that begins in middle age.” I’d like to have a word for “the sadness inspired by failing restaurants” as well as for “the excitement of getting a room with a minibar.” I’ve never had the right words to describe my life, and now that I’ve entered my story, I need them more than ever. ”

Moon moves from Aquarius into Pisces today as we tiptoe toward the Full Moon in Aries on Sunday the 13th. Pisces is a mutable water sign that draws forth waves of emotion that shape our perceptions. This also makes us more sensitive to others’ feelings to the point where we may feel like a psychic sponge. This is perfect practice in determining which emotions belong to you, and which emotions you’re feeling that belong to someone else. Be aware that you might feel a strong pull to escape or check out emotionally. A positive way to escape is through art or performing mundane tasks. Beware of intoxicants and the numbing effects of television. It is wise to gather grounded, healthy friends who will help you find an emotional balance.
At the same time, Moon trines Venus and Mercury, and sextiles Uranus. What this means is that the heavens are quite active now though we may not be able to comprehend or understand what the end result will be. Yet. This information becomes much clearer as we get through the day. It’s definitely not superficial energy. The pieces that we can click into place are locked down in dramatic and powerful ways. There is little patience for ignorance here. Distractions are quickly dispatched and irrelevant interjections most likely ignored. More is happening today than we can see on the surface.
Tomorrow is another story.
