The Sky Today,
March 18

At 6:24 a.m.: The moon is sextile Jupiter

In the morning, the Cancer moon sextiles Jupiter in Taurus, kicking the day off on an optimistic note. Generosity comes second nature now. Feelings of goodwill towards our fellow humans inspire us to do good deeds. Pay a loved one a compliment or do a favor for your neighbor. The more we strive to uplift others and be their safe space, the more they will return the favor.

At 7:29 a.m.: The moon is square Mercury

However, the moon then clashes with Mercury, complicating communication. Another’s thoughtless criticism or sharp tone hurts our feelings. We’re likely to take this personally, assuming our efforts have been overlooked. In response, we’ll return fire with a few choice comebacks of our own, only to experience instant remorse. Ultimately, trying to hurt someone who’s hurt us won’t undo the hurt. Instead of provoking an argument in the heat of the moment, put your nervous energy into more constructive pursuits.
