The Cancer moon opposes Pluto today. We can all be easily manipulated during this transit. We are far more likely to want to (and succeed at) push each other’s buttons. There is a looming sense of hopelessness that magnifies whatever we’re insecure about, so don’t be surprised if you act unusually jealous or overly sensitive.
The moon aspects Jupiter and Neptune as well, so hopefully you can at least put on a great show if you’re feeling less than grounded at this time, but it’s likely that when Pluto and the moon connect, you’ll be in a bad mood for the rest of the night. You could talk before you think, assume things, and jump to conclusions, and none of it in a good way. You’re very likely to not only have a short fuse but also be very aggressive about it. No one is giving the other a chance to be heard or a fair shake in matters, so this isn’t a great time for business deals, and relationships could absolutely suffer during this period.
If you’re longing to find information that can help you evolve in your career, use today to investigate situations and people. Pluto’s great detective skills can help you find information that changes things for the better.
We reach the 1st quarter phase of the current lunar cycle. This lunar cycle may encourage us to show our unique independence but we need to carefully balance independence with some awareness of our need for the support of others. The Moon trines the still applying Jupiter-Neptune conjunction this morning, setting a tone which brings inspiration and excitement. However, we continue to deal with strong egos and a heightened concern over whether or not we are getting our fair share. Emotions are stirred but we may be inclined to try to obscure our self-doubts and uncertainty with bravado. Ultimately, we may only show erratic and unpredictable behavior that reveals our desire to take all that we can get. But if we can avoid selfish impulsiveness and maintain some sense of gratitude, self-control, and humility, there are incredible creative opportunities here.

DAILY ORACLE
When Ant Spirit comes to visit, it’s to celebrate the benefits of working in a partnership with others as part of a community or tribe. Spirit reminds you that to build your dream, you need to work with others, accept help, and trust in your most important partnership— the one you have with Spirit.
Your intentions will come to fruition if you remain awake and focused on co-creating your reality with others and with Spirit. Remember that the world around you can easily seduce you if you don’t have some sort of practice or discipline like meditation to keep you on track as you build the life you desire.
Connecting with others and having accountability partners can be very helpful, as it’s unlikely that everyone will fall asleep at the same time. The other message Ant Spirit holds is that you are now at an auspicious time to ask for help and receive it, whether you need help assembling a team, finding a new tribe, or requesting assistance from others who are there for you.
Everything is working to support you right now!
2022 LUNAR CALENDAR
4/9/2022 FIRST QUARTER MOON IN CANCER: Your feeling of safety is now related to your home, family and related activities such as cooking and gardening. 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. Your perception of the world can be very subjective; try to create a certain distance without being bitter. Due to your rich emotional manifestation you can create a real sense of belonging in the world.
4/16/2022 FULL MOON IN LIBRA: You might have a strong need for balance and harmony now. You probably desire to keep things nice rather than venturing into fundamental questions in order not to disturb the peace. You must learn to share your good and bad feelings. Do not be afraid to be who you really are, despite what is expected of you.
4/23/2022 LAST QUARTER MOON IN AQUARIUS: Your relationship with your emotions might be more complicated, because Moon in Aquarius has a strong need for emotional freedom. However, when you are in a group of people, it is easier for you to understand your feelings and free yourself from negative emotions such as fear, anger and jealousy.
4/30/2022 NEW MOON IN TAURUS: Your safety depends on the need for stability, which is not easy to satisfy now. You have to learn to accept change as part of your life. The basic problem is finding your own self-respect in order to ensure that you do not mistakenly seek it in material things. When you accept yourself for who you are, it will become easier for you to find peace and tranquility in the outside world.
