In the morning, the Leo moon sextiles Mercury in Libra, facilitating easy communication. We want to share our gifts, and others are a welcome springboard for our ideas. We’ll be disinclined to have in-depth, serious conversations. Because we don’t feel pressured to adopt a pretense, friendships improve and partnerships flourish. This is a great time to celebrate each other’s talents, engage in light gossip, and talk openly about our feelings and our past.
However, in the evening, Mars in Libra squares off with Pluto in Capricorn, escalating tensions! This aspect will be intensifying throughout the day, causing us to feel on edge. Gradual agitation builds to an explosive confrontation! We believe we have been manipulated or coerced into a course of action. Anger can no longer be suppressed. While it is hardly acceptable for another to force their will upon us, we may have acquiesced to this imbalanced power dynamic. Letting something go for too long without standing up for ourselves has led to this moment… we just don’t want to admit it to ourselves. Unfortunately, the scales are not tipped in our favor. Our adversary, whether they are a person, institution, or even a psychological fear, has more influence. Nevertheless, the night’s events serve as an important wake-up call. If we don’t want to have future run-ins with this foe, the way we challenge its authority must fundamentally change.
