At 4:08 a.m.: The moon is trine Mars, and the moon void of course begins
In the morning, the moon trines Mars, helping us to assert ourselves. This is an ideal aspect to harness if we have a project to pitch or a declaration to make. The Aquarius moon encourages us to think outside the box, while Mars in Gemini allows us to candidly communicate our intent. However, we should be mindful that Mars has just begun its retrograde journey. We may begin to be subtly aware that our stamina and willpower are being leached from us. The trine is a harmonious, comfortable influence, and we might squander this aspect’s potency, failing to use it to its fullest potential. Although this is an excellent time for helping to move stalled projects through a pipeline, we may think “it can wait.” Adopting this attitude will be detrimental to our progress. Muster your energy and give your cause a little push—that’s all it should take to get the ball rolling.
At 11:46 a.m.: The moon enters Pisces, and the moon void of course ends
However, before noon, the moon enters nebulous Pisces. Although it has exited its short void of course, Pisces is an out-there sign, and the rest of the day may be spent attending to dreamy pursuits. This is an ideal lunar transit for rest and relaxation, if we can afford it. If there is work to be done, we will feel lethargic, especially if our work involves physical labor or intellectual rigor. However, creative efforts will benefit from the moon’s sojourn in the sign of the Fishes, as imaginative exploits get a boost. If we can transfer our artistic ideas out of our mind’s eye and onto the canvas, all the better! This afternoon can additionally be used for meditation, spiritual studies, and practicing divinatory techniques.
