“The train is a small world moving through a larger world.” Elisha Cooper

Your communication could be less concise and not as cutting-edge as usual today, which could elicit emotional responses from others. Verbal communication won’t be your strong suit now as you lean into your intuition and have temperamental reactions to matters.

Other people can’t read your mind, though, so you’ll have to find a way to let your sentiments be known without expecting others to instinctively know what you’re thinking. If you allow yourself to speak from the heart, your confidence will be high, and you can defend yourself if people criticize you.

To be real, you aren’t wrong to assert yourself as a way to stand up against the haters. In fact, you’re 100 percent right, and anyone who tells you otherwise is wrong. The issue is that we could have a distanced or unemotional response when people discuss their feelings. Right now, your discerning eye helps you to see matters from a distance. Allowing yourself to figure out situations objectively can help you find clarity. Use this time to figure out how you feel about situations and how you want to take action.

The highly spontaneous environment that we are in encourages a sense of freedom. Today’s Gemini Moon seems to increase the free-wheeling, free-thinking atmosphere. However, self-control and responsibility are required to maintain our progress. Mercury is approaching the third exact conjunction with Pluto (completing Thursday morning). The demand for clear, concise communication is lurking beneath what may seem like a jovial and optimistic atmosphere. We need to carefully check out the subtleties — the fine print — and be sure we fully understand where we are headed. The independence we feel here may be illusory if we aren’t paying attention.

2022 LUNAR CALENDAR

2/16/2022 FULL MOON IN LEO: You feel safe in moments when you can impress others and get praise and admiration. Yet, when you get into the spotlight, you may find yourself at a loss. Maybe you should admit your fear of criticism and your inability to accept criticism. It is very important to accept feedback and use it for improvement.

2/23/2022 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. Shallow relationships do not satisfy you, because they are not purifying enough.
