In the morning, the Virgo moon trines Jupiter in Taurus, blending optimism and realism. We make less of a distinction between positive thinking and pragmatism. Because of this, we are better able to get out of our own way. Creative solutions to problems come easily. Lucky opportunities arise in the course of completing routine work or running errands. Being in the right place at the right time sets us up for success. While this is a good occasion to kick back and relax, this aspect can also be employed for charitable acts and philanthropy. Consider ways to be of service to a cause or offer help to someone in need.
This lively cosmic weather persists until after nightfall, when the moon sextiles the Scorpio sun. This is an excellent influence for furthering intimate connections with others. Our intent: to cut through the treacle and get real. Under this astrological weather, superficial exchanges won’t cut it. Yet while we organically intuit how to build relational bridges, we also maintain high standards for our company. During this transit, we perceive who we can trust and who is putting on an act. Some people will not want to go deep with us and may even interpret our questions as intrusive. We have no desire to call out others’ lack of transparency, but we will create distance from anyone that we assume to have ulterior motives. A strong sense of inner confidence encourages us to avoid fair-weather friends. Quality over quantity is our motto now.
