The Pisces moon and Mars in Sagittarius square off today. When the moon squares Mars, it can bring intense arguments to the fore. This energy can directly affect relationships and home life.

Because both the moon and Mars are in mutable signs, a third party might contribute to the frustration that occurs in the evening. Be careful not to listen to people who don’t have your best interests at heart. And don’t take advice from someone who doesn’t know the full story. They might push you into saying things that aren’t necessarily kind and don’t hold any weight in the discussion.

Although we might want to argue until the bitter end, and get in the last word, it would be inadvisable. More often than not, it doesn’t matter who wins. Be the bigger person, and stop the drama from reaching that point by walking away or apologizing. In many cases where arguments occur, no one is right or wrong. Therefore, it’s important to regain peace and understanding, so you can work and evolve together as a functional unit.

We find subtle — perhaps even charming — perseverance today that may be capable of quietly moving mountains without fanfare or drama. We will see this accomplished through quietly taking a stand in the face of all odds. However, if resistance is too stiff, things may not be so quiet. This is a powerful effort, which seems to be focused on balancing the feeling of restriction with the belief that there needs to be some kind of change. There are new elements being injected into the overall environment that won’t be easily stopped or disputed. The determination here may be quite surprising.

You may be prone to emotional fluctuations; you should learn to forgive and forget in order to avoid depression from thinking too much about things.

Due to your rich emotional manifestation you can create a real sense of belonging in the world.

JAN 25: LAST QUARTER MOON IN SCORPIO: Moon in Scorpio creates the need to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. You desire meaningful emotional exchanges now more than at any other time even if it is not easy and you are forced to change many things.
