The Virgo moon forms a harsh square to Mercury and the sun this morning, so be mindful that you’re managing your stress levels. Avoid demanding perfection from both you and others right now, and try not to be overly nitpicky.

Luckily, this energy dissipates by midmorning, though an unbalanced aspect between the moon and Saturn could cause some disorganization if you let tension and your emotions get the better of you.

Action planet Mars is working overtime to help alleviate any cosmic funk that has manifested as it shares supportive connections with both Venus and dreamy Neptune. If you lean into positive thinking and allow the universe to support you, you should make it to lunchtime mostly unscathed.

Pleasant surprises are sure to manifest when Luna and Uranus exchange some good vibes later this evening. Look for opportunity right now, even if it’s in an unassuming place.

Check in with your body this evening, and be sure to get in a brief workout before sitting down to a healthy meal. It’s also be important that you look for ways to relieve stress right now so that the moon’s Virgo placement doesn’t get the better of you!

There are important opportunities to regain our objectivity today, face our blind spots, and begin to realign ourselves with others. New ideas gain more interest, so long as we are willing to show our work and allow full investigation of our thought processes. Today gives us an opportunity to release many of our old habits and deal with others in a new and more open way. Although idealism is building under the forming Mars-Neptune trine, we are well-grounded and much more willing to develop new lines of communication. There may certainly be further adjustments to be made but we find fertile ground for a new round of cooperative effort.

DAILY ORACLE

The Bee Spirit’s message is that sweet rewards are on their way if you are willing to get your ego out of the way and immerse yourself in the connected energy of all things. Bee Spirit knows not to let a sense of being a separate self get in the way of a good thing. Spirit is always producing honey; miracles and magic are everywhere. When you connect with the Great Hive, you are vibrating and buzzing in exquisite harmony with all.

Bee Spirit asks that your focus be on connectivity. Your body, heart, soul, and psyche experience total interconnectedness and a true integration when you “self-forget”: when you remember that you are part of a greater unified consciousness.

Moving from separation into connection, from self-centered limitation to Spirit-centered infinite possibility and potential, you become busy as a bee, enjoying the gifts of Bee Spirit. Fully in alignment with your highest expression of yourself, your heart opens and creativity rushes through you seemingly without effort as you experience that nothing feels like work. Industriousness is driven by enthusiasm and inner motivation, and time seems to fly by quickly as the hive supports you in the making of honey.

Do you feel the presence of your helpers in the hidden realms adding their energy to your creations? Magical results are taking form and will be sweeter than you expect. Bee Spirit wants you to remember that your part in the divine partnership with the Conscious Universe is being rewarded even if you can’t see that yet, and asks that you share your good fortune as there is plenty of honey for all. Be a part of the larger whole, the force that brings forth all that is sweet and delightful.
