Are You Ready to Be Challenged?

At 5:32 a.m.: The moon enters Cancer, and the moon void of course ends

In the morning, the moon enters Cancer, ending its void of course which began late last night. Over the next two days, navigating emotional ups and downs feels like riding a wave. The quickest way to stress ourselves out is to allow ourselves to become overly attached to our feelings. Worry less about whether your emotions are “too much” or “not enough.” Remember, there is no right way to be! Use this time to honor your range and define the creature comforts that help you to find peace amidst chaos. 

At 7:33 a.m.: The moon is square Mercury

Following this, the moon squares off with Mercury in Libra, complicating communication. Someone’s opinions or ideas could provoke an extreme, unconscious reaction in us. We believe that our very way of life is under attack! Conversely, we might be the ones telling others how to live or conduct their business.  We have particular ideas of what constitutes “right” and “wrong” now, but these value judgments are coming from an instinctive, rather than a rational place. If we can recognize this, we can detach from the urgency of the moment and give others their space. Steer clear of volatile social or political environments this morning, as they will get our blood boiling!
