Today’s Gemini moon squares Neptune and aspects Jupiter. If you choose to be alone, you might be doing yourself a disservice—to be quite honest—because this is going to be a time of great affection shared with those you feel closest to. It isn’t a good time for foolish encounters with strangers, because these are only likely to leave you feeling sad and alone. If you take care to satisfy the needs of your partner and behave selflessly, this can be a rewarding time for you.

The moon squaring Neptune could bring up some depressing thoughts about the past, but try to take responsibility for your actions. Being accountable is hard, but think about what you can do to improve things and resolve these feelings.

When the moon aspects Jupiter tonight, you could surprise yourself with some impulsive solutions. It isn’t advised that you put them into action just yet. You need to sleep on it; this isn’t the time for hastiness. Use this aspect’s positive vibes to feel confident about yourself, read a new book that inspires you, or plan a vacation in a far-off place that you’ve always dreamed of visiting.

Tonight’s Gemini Full Moon (8:35 PM PST 27° Gemini/Sagittarius), trines Jupiter — suggesting optimism and expansiveness — but makes a tricky quincunx to the stationing Venus, which will go retrograde tomorrow. The close conjunction of Venus and Pluto, quincunx to the Full Moon, could easily lead to obsessiveness. We are likely to feel extremely unmoored — unable to find any kind of solid footing from which we can effectively extend our reach and share our message to the world. The Full Moon carries the light from an early morning Moon-Neptune square that has our emotions confused with moody uncertainty. Certainly, the Moon’s trine to Jupiter seems promising. However, we need to have firm foundations before we answer Jupiter’s call to expand. In this atmosphere, we are prone to risk everything on a fantasy or make ill-timed announcements.
