While we’re all in slumberland, the moon forms an unpleasant aspect to Mars, which could cause restless sleep and difficulty waking up. Remember that even if your heart’s not in it, it’s important to honor and manage your personal responsibilities.

The morning could have a little bit of a funk to it as a square between the moon and Pluto, along with a cosmic T-square, could leave us questioning our goals and self-worth. It’s natural to feel down from time to time, and one bad day doesn’t mean you should give up on your dreams.

Unfortunately, the messy energy continues into the afternoon as the moon forms squares to Jupiter and Saturn. Optimism could likely take a hit, and while we’ll be in need of emotional release, we may feel pressured to put on a brave face. Be gentle with both yourself and others as you try to navigate this rocky day, be supportive of your friends, and take a time-out if you need to be alone.

Luckily, the energy begins to lighten after nightfall and the moon moves into transformative Scorpio. Take the evening to enjoy a cleansing bath or do an energetic house cleaning to help remove any negative energy you may have picked up during the day.

Today’s intensity is represented by this morning’s crisis-driven Moon-Pluto square about 7:30 AM PST. While we may have different approaches to today’s intensity, we should not attempt to deny the feelings and vulnerabilities that surface. Many will show outward optimism while inwardly feeling low self-esteem or other insecurities. The Moon is briefly void-of-course from 4:59 PM PST until 5:58 PM PST. With the Moon’s entrance into Scorpio, our inclination is likely to be to withdraw.
