The moon is in Libra this morning, asking you to relax a bit and take things easier over the next couple days. You should wake up feeling in tune with your heart and inspired to manifest your dreams when the moon shares sweet connections to the nodes of fate.

Mars and dreamy Neptune share a healing trine this morning, which can help you resolve any feelings of being rushed as long as you trust in both yourself and the universe.

Try to get in a meditation session when the moon shares a helpful connection to the sun this afternoon. It can help illuminate the path ahead and bring through some new creative ideas. While inspiration could hit you like a storm today, remember that it’s important to check in with your body and take breaks to recharge.

Checking in with your loved ones will also be important because an opposition between the moon and Chiron could lead to feelings of neglect. Use this evening’s energy to cuddle up with that special someone or practice some self-care.

Mercury’s connections to both Saturn and healing asteroid Chiron tonight reminds you that it’s important to implement a reasonable plan to meet your goals and make sure you’re practicing patience regarding the outcome.

We continue to see idealism today but the Mars-Neptune trine does not provide a great deal of direction. Unfortunately, we continue to have the feeling that we are being held back no matter how much progress we are actually making. Powerful creative urges and a strong desire to help others keeps us engaged but we are likely to be dealing with personal blind spots that must be dealt with directly before we can achieve the kind of progress we are hoping for. The Moon is waning in light until Friday’s Sagittarius New Moon (11:42 PM PST 12° Sagittarius) so we aren’t likely to get the traction we would like. Our main lesson here is patience, understanding, and compassion — not bold action and tangible progress. Alert observation and a calm, peaceful attitude will keep us from overlooking the true value of this extremely nebulous atmosphere.

DAILY ORACLE

When you most want to be acknowledged as “right” and see other ways as “wrong,” Dolphin Spirit appears as a reminder that the story of your suffering and righteousness is a little more complicated than you are admitting right now. Do you want to see things in black-and-white, and be rigid in your ideas of what’s correct and what is not?

Release your rigidity and embrace the fluidity of life as you recognize the grays that remind you there are two sides to every story, an upside to each downside, and a blessing in every challenge. What you think is wrong may end up being right for you, so let Dolphin Spirit soften your heart so that you make the best decision at this time, playing with the possibilities that present themselves.
