Need Personal Space? Explain Yourself Before Exiting!

December 16, 2023



At 9:33 a.m.: The moon is square Venus

After sun-up, the moon squares off with Venus in Scorpio, making us apathetic in matters of the heart. Our emotions and our desires are at odds now. We might feel starved for attention yet unwilling to put in extra effort with a loved one. We expect them to prove their loyalty but also feel smothered when they do!  Under the Aquarius moon, it is imperative that we take time for ourselves without being guilted into social events or intimate engagements. Our desire for space may not be personal, but our aloofness can easily be misinterpreted by our partner. Since communication breakdowns can create romantic tension or resentment now, try to find a compromise and be vocal about your needs.

At 12:52 p.m.: The moon is sextile Mars

After noon, the moon sextiles Mars in Sagittarius, amplifying today’s emphasis on personal freedom. Under this influence, we want to roam, explore, meet new people, and have interesting experiences. We won’t be able to do this if we are under another person’s microscope.  It is not that we want to be inconsiderate towards those we love. But we must feel like our own independent person now. Celebrating our individuality and centering our passions will allow us to return to friends, partnerships, and family commitments, revived. But we must first be selfish and make today about us, so we can give back to our communities more effectively.
