Solar Eclipse July 1st

The culmination of a trio of eclipses that have been rocking our worlds, this Solar Eclipse in Cancer, sign of family and home, happens overnight tonight. This is the forecast I wrote last week at Robins Zodiac Zone dot com with an addendum sign by sign added tonight. If you know your Rising Sign, that and your Sun sign are the two to read.

Friday's Forecast:

The Solar eclipse happens before sunrise, in Cancer, at 4:54 am. Be ready for most anything in the form of breaking news, unexpected announcements, and major shifts in direction. The New Moon in Cancer is about home, family, our emotions, our comfort level, and our ability to face things directly.  With a Solar eclipse there will be immediacy in dealing with these things whether we feel ready or not.  Since Saturn is approximately square to this Solar Eclipse, with Moon and Sun in conjunction, there's a very serious element involved and how we deal with changes is very important! We may tend to be reactive and dramatic, though that's not the best idea.  Saturn in Libra is urging justice and balance. Look at pros and cons and try not to make overly emotional decisions.  Saturn is about maturity and reaching new levels of responsibility and wisdom. The Sun is also representative of authority figures, the father to be most specific.  Try to take the wise, advised route over an impulsive move.  Eclipse effects ripple again-if not roar-one month down the road, and so this one is like a double whammy as impacts of June 1st reverberate again too! Things begun near then may now have quick endings or unexpected results. For example, pregnancy from a new relationship or loss from a big gamble. Those are possible examples and the results can be a plus or unwanted. Either way our challenge is in how we respond.  This is Mercury's last night in Cancer, and once again we are primed for changing our minds and hearts in a big way in the days ahead if not right now! Wear white.

Cancer: Very personal changes in your way of thinking and/or presenting yourself are the result of this eclipse. The closer your birthday is to July 1st, the more dramatically you're impacted.  Eclipses accelerate events that were expected maybe further down the time line, so you may suddenly be faced with something you were putting off and hoped would go away.  You're going to make a noticeable shift, ready or not, and how you react to the eclipse events will shape your newer self.  News you receive may stun you at first. News you break to others, such as romantic partner or family members will take them off guard. It's all in the name of figuring out who you really want to be and then pursuing that path.  You've been working on this for the last two years or so. There's no time like the present.

Leo: Unless you have Cancer rising, the changes this eclipse brings happen below the surface. You can probably take your time to adjust to news and changes around you. You're likely to be deciding what you think, immersing yourself in thoughts, possibilities, and possibly imagination and envisioning. Leos can channel uncertainty into creativity. Your brain will work overtime in sleep and dreams, and that is where your answers may be found! Give yourself plenty of down time, recharge your self, and take good care of your health. Leo is ruled by the Sun, so solar eclipses always implicate you, but this one is more of a sleeper with a time release. No need to rush things.

Virgo: Cancer is the sign that rules your 11th house, a place of hopes and dreams, friendship and groups you belong to.  During this challenging eclipse, you may suddenly see what or who is in the way of your ultimate goals.  Defining the blocks can help remove them.  Clearing out friendships that no longer serve you or are unhealthy may be one of the actions you take now.  Even if not, changes in your social circle are to be expected.  You could join or leave a group that has been important in your life in pursuit of something new.  Friends may throw curve balls, changing the whole game.  It is true that who we associate with says a lot about who we are. Keep that in mind.

Libra: This Solar eclipse impacts how others see you and how you present your self professionally and publicly.  Your image could change rapidly. You may be put in the spotlight or on the other hand, you could lose a role that is very important to you. Either way you are forced to reinvent, make a new impression, and draw upon your strengths and talents. There could be a big tug between career or other opportunity and family. Assume you're being watched & evaluated. Put forth your best and stay on the up and up as you respond to unexpected events. Have dignity and grace.

Scorpio: My first instinct is that you'll have sudden reason to travel or move! Now this won't happen with every Scorpio or Scorpio rising individual, but the theme is the same even if the circumstances are different. Giving up old philosophies you were rooted in could be the other side of pulling up your roots and going! Some of you will be presented with grand, but challenging, opportunities that require you to risk it all, move away from secure situations, and open your mind to new experiences.  How you react is your decision, but the eclipse brings the impetus to change your life by accepting, learning, and having a spirit of adventure.

Sagittarius: You were more directly affected by the June 1st and 15th eclipses, however the ripple effects may feel like more of a tidal wave for the next few weeks at least.  Things you started may have sudden endings or unexpected turnouts.. There are more surprises in store.  Financial situations, affairs of the heart, and spiritual beliefs may all be involved and challenged.  You've had a lot to deal with already this spring, and this might be icing on the cake or a final straw depending how you view news and events experienced now. One thing is certain, you can't avoid your emotions this time.

Capricorn: Your forecast is much like Cancers with more of an emphasis on relationships. Circumstances now push you to decide who you want to be: wife, mother, husband, father, single, attached, independent or even co-dependent. It's up to you! But the events that cause you to evaluate and decide are not in your control.  You're more likely to be reacting to someone else's declaration, situation or news. The results are highly personal however. And again, this has been two years in the making for you and for Cancer. The time really is now.

Aquarius: If you love routine and thrive on the day to day, reliable, familiar things, this eclipse may rock your world and drive you nuts. If you're not so set in your ways, the changes may feel exciting. There's a good change how you operate, either at work or in personal schedule and routine, is about to go through a significant shift. It's a real opportunity to learn to do things in new ways.  Adjusting is your challenge. Like Leo, get lots of rest and recharge time and take good care of your health/self.

Pisces: Romance and luck are what Cancer rules in your chart! Eclipses bring change and news so you may feel a big victory, enjoy a whirlwind romance, or even fall out of love. Either direction is possible, but the element of surprise is consistent.  Like Virgo, your social circle may be due for a change. New friends and shedding old ones could be the result of what you find out or experience now.

Aries: Home and career pull you in different directions now. Family things need balancing and working out. It looks like a lot of problem solving to be done, Aries. This may the time you change your residence or make big changes in your living situation including who you live with as well as where.  Parents, parenting, and other family situations force themselves into priority status. How to live together or how to live apart and how to keep your sense of self and goals are all issues you'll be considering.  If home is stable and unchanging, career decisions are put on the to do now list by this eclipse. React wisely.

Taurus: How you communicate is of supreme importance during this eclipse. Choose words carefully and mean what you say.  Cancer house in your chart is about brothers, sisters and others we grew up with, therefore family news is likely and a trip back home may be in order too.  Others will be affected by what you say and do so be clear and straightforward.  A change of scene does you a world of good in some cases.  Stay on top of your game. Watch the mail, email and pay attention to paperwork, for example agreements or legal documents, that can't wait.

Gemini: The last two eclipses were very much about personal and relationship changes and adjustments, some of them dramatic, unexpected or even short lived.  This eclipse will reverberate with that energy too, but now there is an added element related to money. Finances may change quickly now in either direction. It's important to stay on top of that and not let a money matter get out of hand. Employment situations can change now too, so make good decisions where work is concerned in case there's potential for a promotion and in defense of the job you hold now as well.  Cancer is the home/family sign, the Sun is the father or authority figure, so this eclipse rolls all that up into one big drive for security, responsibility and financial stability.  The more conservative Cancer approach may be whats called for. Think nest egg.

Weekly June 27th

Monday

The Taurus Moon moves void of course at 12:24 pm so business and decisions are best taken care of in the morning.  The Moon is in harmony with  Mercury in Cancer making it easy to work things out agreeably. Practical and home/family related talks and problem solving are favored today.  Taurus is an earth sign and hands on work and physical workouts, gardening and landscaping, and other activities where we get tangible results will be very satisfying today.  In fact the afternoon is best suited to things that require elbow grease rather than lots of thought.  Work out emotions with physical work and exercise too!  Mars and Uranus are the other part of the story today, harmonizing -even conspiring-in Gemini and Aries, getting us all fired up to act on wild ideas and change, overthrow, and get ready for big restarts. If the "tower falls" now, think of how you can rebuild it bigger and better! Tonight is meant for family dinners, outdoor fun, and our comfort zones over anything more adventurous.  The Sun is opposite Pluto so use your best judgment and don't go overboard, Cancer and Capricorn especially. Wear green.

Tuesday

The Moon moves to Gemini at 3:56 am, setting us up for a busy and social day.  The Sun opposite Pluto overnight can sometimes prompt us to act out, so there may be some emotional drama as a result. With the Sun in Cancer, family situations and very sensitive circumstances are triggered.  Be ready to face things calmly so they don't get out of hand early.  Proactive, with out too much aggression, is just right.  The Moon meets Mars in Gemini today, which can both stimulate and aggravate things, especially worries and anxieties and any kind of injury to the hands or wrists, Gemini's hot spots.  The downsides are obvious, but the other extreme of this conjunction can be great brainstorming, exciting meetings and connections, and excellent chemistry between people. Gemini, Leo and Aquarius are most likely to make those great connections today! Protect your hands, wrists, and fingers if you do physical work or play. And be very careful with communications today since Gemini rules the spoken and written word and Mars can exacerbate misunderstandings and contribute to the power of words! It's a good social day or night as long as you don't offend other people!!! Things can escalate quickly on days like this.  Wear yellow.

Wednesday

The Gemini Moon aligns with Saturn in Libra, very much instigating productive solutions and thoughtful, balanced decisions.  It's a day to take serious steps in areas that have been problematic.  Getting wise advice is a good idea.  Look for impartial sources that are not emotionally involved and do not have a stake in outcomes.  In some cases older relatives might be helpful.  If there's anxiety around  situation, this may be the day to take a new attitude and put worries that hold you back aside.  Take a real, well advised approach today.  It's a good day to network with people who can lead you to opportunities or who have experience in the area you're pursuing.  Tonight the Moon approaches Venus for a very nice night out. Flirtations are likely! Gemini is the social butterfly, and again Leo and Aquarius are not far behind.  Sagittarius, you can turn a long term relationship back in a romantic direction now or you might consider getting back together with an ex.  Wear lavender.

Thursday

The Moon is void of course from 3:33 am EST until 12:13 pm when she moves on to Cancer. Those hours are full of jittery Gemini energy ranging from butterflies in the stomach over happy Venus type things like romance to stage fright over what's pending this morning or afternoon.  Take it easy and check your schedule. We may forget where to be or where we put things we need first thing! The morning is best for catch up and routine though inability to focus may get the best of us.  This afternoon's Cancer Moon is in agreement with Neptune in Pisces for great creativity and improvisation. Actors and artists, find your muse! The evening is very mixed as the Moon works with Jupiter in Taurus for doing things up big! Celebrations, for example, are nicely timed. However the Moon square to Uranus provides the shock or surprise factor and potential clashes over emotional differences.  The Moon opposite Pluto is nearly always a challenge, and Capricorn and Cancer feel this personally and relationship wise, while Libra and Aries may relate to that as well as to struggles with family or other living arrangements.  It's an especially mixed night for Cancer. On this night before the New Moon, consider your ideal or best course of action and get ready for restarts and new approaches, relationships, and endeavors.  Wear silver.

Friday

The Solar eclipse happens before sunrise, in Cancer, at 4:54 am. Be ready for most anything in the form of breaking news, unexpected announcements, and major shifts in direction. The New Moon in Cancer is about home, family, our emotions, our comfort level, and our ability to face things directly.  With a Solar eclipse there will be immediacy in dealing with these things whether we feel ready or not.  Since Saturn is approximately square to this Solar Eclipse, with Moon and Sun in conjunction, there's a very serious element involved and how we deal with changes is very important! We may tend to be reactive and dramatic, though that's not the best idea.  Saturn in Libra is urging justice and balance. Look at pros and cons and try not to make overly emotional decisions.  Saturn is about maturity and reaching new levels of responsibility and wisdom. The Sun is also representative of authority figures, the father to be most specific.  Try to take the wise, advised route over an impulsive move.  Eclipse effects ripple again-if not roar-one month down the road, and so this one is like a double whammy as impacts of June 1st reverberate again too! Things begun near then may now have quick endings or unexpected results. For example, pregnancy from a new relationship or loss from a big gamble. Those are possible examples and the results can be a plus or unwanted. Either way our challenge is in how we respond.  This is Mercury's last night in Cancer, and once again we are primed for changing our minds and hearts in a big way in the days ahead if not right now! Wear white.

Saturday

The Moon moves to Leo at 5:43 pm EST and Mercury moves into Leo too.  This helps us with resilience as we feel the effects and hear eclipse related news.  Expect others to be very expressive today and tomorrow. Leo is also generous, magnanimous, and optimistic.  This weekend is for showoffs and entertainers. Tomorrow may be more the party day since today the Sun and Saturn square continuing the serious dealings of the Cancer eclipse on Friday.  Saturn reminds us of wisdom and discretion.  Take care of business as well as pleasure.  Mercury in Leo favors those who perform in the weeks ahead, and helps with writing, learning and self expression generally. Today's color is purple

Sunday

Leo Moon, and much like yesterday with an added dose of optimism. Read the eclipse forecast as well since it impacts this entire period. The Moon works with Mars in Gemini for social plans. Wear gold

Weekly June 20th

Monday

This is Mars last day in Taurus, and the Moon will shift from Aquarius to Pisces today at 4:45 pm EST. While the Moon is in Aquarius and Mars is in Taurus we'll tend to be stubborn, if not bull headed! It will be hard to sway people's opinions and it's a tough day to negotiate or debate.  It is a good day to work persistently at something you've been at for a while. The Moon and Sun are in harmony making us more decisive and confident, especially the fixed signs Taurus, Aquarius, Leo, and Scorpio as well as Gemini, where the Sun lives until tomorrow night.  It's the last evening of spring, and the Moon in Pisces and Mars moving into Gemini bring a feeling of possibility and flexibility to the night.  The trend of changing minds, hearts and direction continues through the month, and Mars in Gemini as of 10:50 pm makes us very fickle and changeable, Gemini and Sagittarius in particular,  with regrade to relationships as well as other things. Today's color is yellow.

Tuesday

The Solstice brings on summer at 1:16 pm as the Sun moves to Cancer today! Just minutes before that the Moon and Mercury are in harmony in Pisces/Cancer, the water signs, and we'll tend to be expressive with our feelings and possibly a bit dramatic and emotional today.  Instinct and intuition are strong with the Pisces Moon and Cancer action. We'll be up and down and changeable in general.  Two squares dominate the 2nd half of the day as Mercury squares Saturn and a real need for fair negotiations becomes evident.  We're challenged to settle things with everyone's best interests met as much as possible.  The Moon squares Venus in Gemini making us very fickle in love. Someone else may seem more interesting than the one you're with if you're a Gemini, Pisces, Virgo, or Sagittarius especially.  Flirtations could also be misinterpreted.  Relationship matters in general may feel problematic.  Tonight, keep things simple and comfortable under the Pisces Moon. It's a good night for movies, music or events outdoors.  Wear light blue.

Wednesday

The Moon is in Pisces, and Pisces' ruling planet Neptune is a strong influence today! Neptune rules dreams and illusion. There's more than meets the eye when Neptune is involved. Plus, the Moon has been void of course since 10:51 pm Tuesday, so our judgment can be really off and we could be misled easily. Be aware of possible deception or the view through "rose colored glasses". The upside may be that we can overlook flaws and see the bright side.  Mars in Gemini square to Neptune is a bit dangerous as far as con-men, untruths and business deals go. Err on the side of caution and trust gut feelings!  The Gemini Sun trine to Neptune makes us sociable, happy to meet new people, and generally optimistic. Ideally we just enjoy, but avoid being overly trusting.  Tonight is meant to be laid back and enjoyed with close friends. Again, like last night, movies, music and being near the water or outdoors is favored.  Don't make promises or rely too much on people's word and expect changes of plans. Pay attention to pets today.  Wear green.

Thursday

The Moon moves to Aries at 4:24 am EST after a long void of course Moon. If the last few days were relaxed or sluggish, you'll notice things shift into full gear now! The Moon squares the Sun, 4th quarter Moon time, at 7:48 am. We'll want to make decisions and act on things, even if there are hurdles to be jumped! Overcome a road block today. The Moon interacts with Mars and meets Uranus for wild shifts, potential confrontations, and overall call to action ready or not! Uranus and Mars are rebels, so drastically altering course may be appealing or even necessary due to this week's events.  Tonight is influenced by a Moon/Pluto square which often indicates a power play and can involved secrets, gossip, or old business.  Saturn across the zodiac in Libra insists we use good discretion tonight. Try not to let Aries Moon impulsivity get you into something you hadn't bargained for! Wear red.

Friday

The Moon opposite Saturn overnight and square to Mercury this afternoon makes it clear we have to deal with things seriously today.  Fulfill obligations, deal with legal, insurance and partnership/relationships matters responsibly.  Saturn says we'll pay the price for indiscretions and injustices now. Mercury in Cancer instigates negotiations between family members, other people who share living space, and also in emotional situations of other  types.  Mercury can be dramatic, moody, and a bit evasive in Cancer, but the Aries Moon pushes for discussions and fresh starts.  Expect to be faced with something that's been pending today. It's 4th quarter Moon time, so we tend to reconsider situations and decisions and look for new courses of action that can begin around July 1st. That's the New Moon and date of the next solar eclipse, this time in Cancer, so family decisions, changes of residence and changes of heart are what we're preparing for. (If you can say prepare in the same sentence as eclipse!) Tonight the Moon and Venus in Gemini set us up for a good social evening, a time of meeting and connecting with new people and in some cases an adventurous date night! Aries, a road trip will feel good, so get out of your usual routine. Gemini and Leo will really enjoy time with friends, and along with Aquarius too, are favored for a date night! Wear pink.

Saturday

It's an agreeable day as the Sun harmonizes with Jupiter and the Moon with Neptune. The Moon is in Aries then Taurus at 4:53 pm. The void of course Moon before that means no major purchases -but if you do buy, save receipts and make sure you know the return policy.  The earlier hours of the day are good for routine, cleaning up and repairing.  A game is also well timed, but anything more serious should wait.  The Taurus Moon from 4:53 pm through the rest of the weekend mean long term decisions and promises are more likely to turn out well and last.  Tonight can be pleasurable and indulgence is likely with a Taurus Moon that rules the 5 senses.  Socially the Sun and Neptune help us get along and make us more open. Wear blue.

Sunday

The Moon is in Taurus meeting Jupiter and in general harmony with the rest of the universe today.  Good fortune is Jupiter's work but it may not come the way we expect as the Sun and Uranus align.  Good surprises are likely even if they take a bit of time to process and adjust to.  Well tend to do things big today and exaggeration is likely too! Wear green.

Weekly June 13th

Monday

We're getting into the Full Moon zone and it's exact with a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius on Wednesday afternoon at 4:14 EST. Today the Moon is in Scorpio and void of course from 1:43 pm until 10:38 pm. The early hours are more practical and focused. Scorpio Moon is driven, creative and strong willed. With the Moon opposite Mars in Taurus, confrontations come up and we may not play nice at all. Be aware that this is a potentially angry opposition, where no one is likely to give in or give up easily.  The fixed nature of these signs along with Mars' warrior energy is very intense and may involved jealousy, competitiveness and ruthlessness.  Don't expect easygoing attitudes. Behaviors and actions will not be easily excused. Keeping to yourself may not be a bad idea today or tonight.  The void of course Moon is a time to slow down, put off big conversations and decisions, and organize your self and your work.  The Moon moves to Sagittarius at 10:38 pm and we'll tend to want to go our own way without interference or excuses.  Tonight, get creatively inspired and maybe turn the phone off and avoid other people's drama or intensity. Wear purple.

Tuesday

The Sagittarius Moon is opposite Venus in Gemini and the Moon is nearly Full. Gemini and Sagittarius may have relationship matters to deal with, and the tendency to want to escape that could be stronger than the will to do it! Today there's a need for flexibility. However, with a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius tomorrow, escaping a problem where honesty is needed can't go on forever. The lunar eclipse is a learning experience particularly for Sagittarius and for Geminis regarding relationships, the long term ones.  Leo may experience changes in friendships, in romance and in luck, with all of this happening fast!  Taurus, stay on top of financial matters where other parties such as partners or investors are involved.  The Moon is in harmony with Uranus in Aries for quick turns of events today. Again, how we respond is key to the outcomes of this eclipse, which will bring it on hard and fast in some cases.  Tonight, keep things in check, don't take unnecessary chances, and  Saturn says be willing to learn from experience. Cancer, the importance of home and routine is evident, and your comfort zone is a good place to be. Wear red.

Wednesday

The Full Moon hits with a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius at 4:14 pm. Eclipses rock our world, and this one is opposite Mercury and Venus in Gemini. Changes in relationships as well as other areas of life are in the forecast, and the Full Moon may light up a sign pointing toward new opportunities and the future. With oppositions however, there's much to be dealt with along the way.  Mercury in Gemini indicates the need for communication is strong and the "big" topics come up for resolution now.  With the mutable nature of Sagittarius and Gemini, plans and solutions may leave room for adjustment later.  Eclipses bring news, and during a lunar eclipse the girls and women in our lives tend to break the news or take action, often unexpectedly. This can take the form of a move, a relationship change, or personal decision. Cancers are also implicated, and during this Full Moon Geminis and Sagittarians are prime for major shifts.  For best courses of action on this very day, be willing to talk honestly and keep the future in mind as well as the moment.  Things we begin during eclipse times usually have a temporary nature, so be careful what you rush into if you want something lasting, be it a relationship or job. That has been true for weeks already, since the days just preceding the June 1st eclipse.  The effects of an eclipse ripple for weeks and months, so though it doesn't all happen immediately, expect new news today if you didn't already get it yesterday. Sagittarius Moon says keep an open mind and be willing to make changes that can be improvements over the long haul. This may mean breaking out of your shell, old patterns, and even discovering new places.  I expect we'll hear quite a bit about people moving far away, changing residences and ending or evolving relationships for a free-er way of life.  Wear yellow.

Thursday

The Moon moved to Capricorn at 1:59 am EST and will meet Pluto today. This is always a serious reality check and/or involves some soul searching. We're in the wake of an eclipse and may be dealing with lots of changes and news today, even if it's not our own! Co-workers moving on, family changes, and a general trend toward new opportunities and getting closure with old problems and relationships is in the forecast.  Some of this may be happening fast and unannounced previously.  Take a Capricorn attitude and have a little detachment and a practical problem solving attitude to be in harmony with the day.  The Moon squares Uranus in Aries and Saturn in Libra and there's quite a tug between acting maturely and fairly and acting with only self interests in mind. That's something that will need working out today or this week.  Those acting in self interest will continue to revisit problems or perhaps have ties cut with partners and friends.  We have yet another eclipse coming, the 3rd of the season, on July 1st and the trends will continue.  How we respond to eclipse action is key to the direction things go in, and this Sagittarius eclipse is working to open our minds to new possibilities ONCE we have closure with the past. Mercury also moves today, into Cancer, where the communication planet is more emotional and communication isn't always straightforward. At 3:09 pm Mercury moves, and we'll notice that everyone is changing their minds, in some cases about big things.  Today things may feel unpredictable, shaky or even a little bit impossible.  Wear white.

Friday

The Moon is in Capricorn, ambitious and work oriented at best. The real story comes from Mercury, planet of communication and transportation, in harmony with both Jupiter and Neptune. Could this be a bike, car, or boat buying day? Other things we may want to consider are new computers, systems that organize communication for work or larger groups, and cell phone plans or appliances.  Get in better touch and connect with people today.  It should be a good business day, and Mercury also helps with personal interactions and discussions that need to happen. Timing things for today is a good idea! Remember that Capricorn can be unemotional and Mercury in Cancer is the opposite, so we may find ourselves extremely one way or the other. Try to be sensitive and not overly critical even if the situation isn't ideal and you may avoid the Cancer/Pisces sensitive tendency toward moodiness or feeling slighted.  Tonight, look for lucky opportunities and beneficial connections. Wear green.

Saturday

The Moon is in Aquarius with a mix of planetary influences including a stubborn square to Jupiter in Taurus. There's a push for expansion today, but there may be uncertainties and differences in vison and ideals as we strive to move forward and grow. The Moon and Mars activate us to work toward ideals nonetheless.  Persist and be creative to achieve goals this weekend. Tonight Uranus and Mercury form a square that relates to emotional triggers and responses.  Words may be spoken that you can't easily take back. Drama is in the forecast tonight.  To use this to your advantage, channel energy into creativity. Wear turquoise

Sunday

The Aquarius Moon is in harmony with Saturn, one planet associated with Dads, on Father's day. Work for fair and equal treatment of people and situations alike today.  The Moon is in harmony with Venus, planet of relationships.  This is about "bettering" things, taking an easygoing approach and finding balance. Emjoy connections with people. Err on the logical side with judgment calls. Today's color is blue

Sunday, June 5, 2011

Weekly June 6

Monday

The Leo Moon is resilient, so if you've been experiencing shake ups since last week's eclipse this part of the week can be re-energizing and bring a feeling of determination.  Saturn with a word in from Libra brings discipline needed to work out problems fairly, especially between partners.  The day is also full of lively, fun conversation and a sense of playfulness and optimism as the Moon and Sun  align in Leo & Gemini.  That aspect is also good for sales, negotiations and collaborative efforts. Brainstorm new ideas and start making them happen! Gemini and Leo are today's key players and should team up or be on your team!  Tonight there may be strain in relationships that have been stressed in the first place.  The let's make things work attitude may help. Leo Moon time is good for sticking with the plan and going for what we're truly fixed on and passionate about.  Tonight strong personalities may debate and we're  not likely to give in or give up easily.  Wear orange.

Tuesday

The Leo Moon is void of course from 11:27 to 3:33 pm EST. Make the morning worthwhile, productive and busy. Note that we'll feel very strongly or notice that around us as people pursue what they want with fervor and enthusiasm.  This can be overwhelming for some and welcome for others!  We'll tend a bit to the excessive too, but Mercury and Saturn align in Gemini/Libra encouraging us to temper that some and keep spending, and even self expression, reasonable.  Still, if you want to do something up big plan for it or launch it this morning by 11:37.  The midday void Moon is suited to routine work or a good game of anything.  Long lunches and exercise breaks might be taken so you can harness motivation when the Virgo Moon arrives at 3:33 pm and we'll be asked to help out, lend our energy or time, or work toward a deadline.  Detail oriented tasks are best done late in the day or evening.  Tonight is impacted by Virgo Moon, Neptune in Pisces across the zodiac, and Jupiter newly in Taurus.  A down to earth attitude is called for and creative and versatile thinking are favored.  Wear  navy blue.

Wednesday

The Moon is in Virgo, the sign of service to others. Jupiter and Neptune align encouraging generosity, compassion and kindness. This aspect is also very spiritual, connecting universal ideas and making us more aware, intuitive and inspired.  Some will find this in religion, some in art or music, some by receiving kindnesses they never expected.  There are also challenges to the day though, as the Virgo Moon challenges both Mercury and the Sun.  Indecision and confusion as well as very mixed feelings prevail. It may be a time to just wait and see.  Tonight that feeling of being on the fence or on hold is in the air.  Try to go with the flow because fighting it doesn't look that productive tonight. We might just need to live with a bit of frustration instead of pushing for an answer that isn't ready yet.  Gemini, be very patient at home and with family who may test your ability to stay calm.  Virgo, let a career matter or any gossip dissipate rather than respond too quickly. Taurus and Pisces, you might be able to keep a good attitude and inspire others through the rough stuff. Wear turquoise.

Thursday

Venus moves to Gemini and is in harmony with the Moon today. The Moon will shift from Virgo to Libra, sign of couples and partnership, at 6:31 pm EST. Balance, responsibility to each other and give and take are today's focus.  Strive for balanced relationships today. If you've been the giver too much back off a bit and if you know you've been taking a lot, do something to show you're invested.  Venus in Gemini from 10:23 am on, for weeks ahead, is more fickle in love and romance and very flirtatious. Leo and Aquarius will tend to fall in love and start romances with friends, and along with Gemini, will tend to attract new people.  Relationships are the biggest part of the story for the next couple of days while the Moon is in Libra. Justice is also a theme, and legal and partnership matters should be attended to and in some cases revisited.  The Moon is void of course from 4:13 am to 6:31 pm which is not the best for business or major decisions, but is nice socially.  Tonight is very social and may border on too eventful as the Moon opposes Uranus in Aries instigating and activating the unexpected. Wear pink.

Friday

There's tension in the forecast as the Libra Moon opposes Uranus and meets Saturn.  Justice needs to be served today and our obligations need to be fulfilled.  Uranus often throws curve balls, and how we respond is key.  Choices we make now are likely to be judged, like it or not.  People we have to answer to or be responsible to could be critical or harsh. Long term implications are involved as the Moon and Saturn meet. Maturity is very important as is making the logical and sensible decision.  Legal and relationship matters are in the forefront.  Pisces, and all of us, should deal with legalities and joint resources, accounts and other partnerships and make sure you have good advice.  Libra, Saturn is asking that you rise to challenges. Sagittarius and Gemini, these things are true with friendship issues and it's time to honest and trustworthy in all dealings with each other and in groups you belong to.  Venus squares Neptune and trust issues come up. Being overly trusting might be a mistake right now.  Be cautious.  The Moon squares Pluto and we need to face realities.  Be logical, get advice and weigh pros and cons today.  For a Friday night, things are looking kind of serious.  If you're free and clear of complicated legal, relationship or friendship matters, you'll fare best tonight as the Moon and Mercury align putting us in more social moods.  Talk things out if you're feeling it. Wear black.

Saturday

The Libra Moon is a bit gentler on us today, in harmony with Mercury and the Sun. We're likely to feel more decisive and communicate more easily.  The Moon is void of course which is good for relaxing and not taking too much on.  Try not to over schedule today. It's a good day to meet new people and enjoy time with friends, brothers and sisters.  Tonight the Moon moves to Scorpio at 8:33pm and is in harmony with Neptune in Pisces. This is very creative but also emotional to the extreme.  It's a good night for movies and music. The Moon is also opposite Jupiter, also creating some extremes, and things may seem exaggerated or overwhelming.  Between eclipses, there's a lot going on so cut yourself a break, stay out of drama, and create privacy if you need it. Scorpio Moon brings up things we can't let go of.  Jealousy or competitiveness becomes more likely. Wear maroon.

Sunday

The Moon is in Scorpio and we're getting ready for a Sagittarius Full Moon and eclipse on Wednesday. Sagittarius shake ups and changes that hadn't been planned for in the forecast this month. This is a pivotal time for Gemini in relationship as well as in personal choices and path.  The Scorpio Moon can help us get organized and sort out things that matter. Soul searching is one word that might describe this Scorpio Moon time, particularly as the Moon aspects Pluto in Capricorn today. Make sensible decisions. Keep private matters quiet.  The Sun and Mercury meet in Gemini which is very different from the Scorpio Moon action! That conjunction is outgoing and expressive! There's a duality about the day that may take the form of being friendly and social on the surface while feeling introspective and serious inside.  If you're a Gemini or a Scorpio or have a water sign Moon you're most likely to experience the day this way.  Tonight Venus and Uranus shake up relationships yet again, shaking the unstable ones and creating new flirtations. Aries, Leo and Gemini are probably most impacted, as well as Sagittarius in long term relationships. Wear gold.
